Then more and more students were called, some got 1 Or 2, some got 5, and some got a perfect 10!
The last student remaining was Harley. When Harley (Solis) called out for him, the others were thinking he would get a 10 and that way, he could be kicked out of the school.
When he came, Harley(Solis) told him,"I have a complete faith in you, you will get less than 5!"
When he came, Harley(Solis) told him,"I have a complete faith in you, you will get less than 5!"
Listening his teacher say so, Harley(Sawyer) sighed and placed his palms and the meter showed a 5!
Then Harley prompted Sawyer to put any of his hand, and when he placed his left hand, the meter showed 10 while his right hand's reading showed a 0!
"So Mr. Sawyer, I think you should change you right hand side's sword!" said Harley(Solis) to Harley(Sawyer).
"But why, teacher, I will have to change my right one, my left one's the problem so I'll change the left one!" said Harley (Sawyer) to Harley (Solis).
"See, Sawyer. What I'm telling is that your swords are linked to you as your brain! As you know, the left brain controls the right hand side of the body while you right brain controls your left hand side of your body. Likewise, your right sword is connected to left body and left sword is connected to your right body!" said Harley(Solis) to Harley(Sawyer).
"Oh I see! Thanks, teacher!!" said Harley (Sawyer) to Harley (Solis) as he went and sat on his place.
Seeing him already getting a 0, all of them were shocked! Their question was simple: "How does Harley Sawyer got a perfect 0 and perfect 10 simultaneously?"
Then Harley (Solis) announced,"Those who have got above 6 points, please go to a weapon dealer and get yourself a new one! That will help you better than your current swords."
"Yes, teacher!" said the students in unison, nodding in approval.
"Sir, what will happen to me if I change my sword? Will I have to again cultivate till transcendence or the effort will stay?" asked Ray, who had got 7 points to Harley (Solis).
"Nonono, nothing like that. You will have to again cultivate till you achieve your transcendence! Remember, there is no fruit you will get without hardwork. If you say smartwork, I will clearly say that it helps for a short period of time. But hardwork is the only thing that has permanent effect on you!" said Harley(Solis), giving a mischievous smile to Ray.
"Ok sir! I'll keep it in mind. But teacher, in your view, who is the best here?" said Ray in a mocking tone. Harley (Solis) understood his motive. And then, he said,"It's undoubtedly you and Cassie together! Why I'm saying that is because even if your binding with your sword is weak, you overcame it and achieved transcendence!
Cassie, on the other hand, achieved transcendence just like Harley, toiling and grinding all day, without rest! But I didn't say Harley's name because he has defect in one of his swords and most importantly, he did not even achieved transcendence in that sword!
Transcendenceis not the only thing that measurespower and strength,! Take Harley, his aunt, Mrs. Poppy Lunaria, she never achieved transcendence in her lifetime! But still, she is an higher-up! If I were to give Harley a rating between 1 and 10, I'm damn sure I will give him a solid 7.5!
The rest 2.5 I didn't gave because he failed to control his swords at a time, decreasing his damage output and giving a lot of stress on his muscles, aura and mana together!"
As soon as he said it, Ray and the other students except Harley (Sawyer) were laughing out loud, mocking him!
But our Sawyer was sitting, accepting his faults and lowering his head with dissatisfaction on his face.
Then some time later, he said,"Teacher, can just exchange my sword with another person's sword? Is it safe?"
