Darius Supreme



As for Reina, when she dropped into her area which was hard to form any sort of surface, she made the same choice as Ash and began to terraform the place using Ice to Stone. 

However, the entire area was like this so even if she created a living space, it would be influenced by the slush all around that was constantly moving. As such, she wisely decided to evaluate the land she was building upon and produce something akin to houses in the air that were supported by pillars. 

She then melted the ice around the land she chose and turned it into water. Along with her wood element, she created a lot of vines and tough plant life that could survive in these harsh conditions. 

She wanted to see more life around her, so this was her goal. 

On the other side, Jonathan was frowning as he stomped the ground and caused the ice for miles around him to crack. Instead of falling into the water, Jonathan sneered and used his gravity element to reduce his weight to that of a feather. 

As such, he could stand on the surface of the water using surface tension and walk across the water like a messiah. He then saw that it was endless water that was freezing cold for miles around and his face became ugly. 

"Hmph!" Jonathan snorted as he removed some metal from his bag of holding and tossed it into the water, and using his metal element power, he modeled it into a platform.

He then used the material element spell Darius had taught them to turn this metal into a platform of floating earth. Once he had a small foundation, he could now plan his next steps on how he was going to manage this area. 

He did not want to waste his stores of metal which he kept in case he needed to cast where there was none of the element or its energy available. 

As such he checked through the repertoire of material element spells Darius had created and found one that was suitable for his current situation. 

[Stone to Water - Level 1 Spell 

Grade: Intermediate 

Cost: 20 MP 

Description: Transform an area of 100 meters around you containing any form of stone to water of any purity (and vice versa) directly or remotely. The speed of conversion is 0.1 seconds per 100 meters and the effectiveness of the conversion is 100%.] 

He had not paid much attention to this one initially because it did not seem very useful since if he had water around, he could just use other combinations of the material element plus his own magical prowess to change the area somewhat. 

However, being in the middle of a sea-locked area with no land around made the utility of this spell soar and Jonathan began expanding his platform in terms of width and depth. 

Folding his arms, the tall youth simply remained standing there while his mana continued to work in shaping the area around him to his purposes. 

Meanwhile, James was also sent into a similar area to the current Jonathan's, only that he was not as rash or arrogant as the tall lad. He carefully observed his area and deduced that he could make a territory here as long as he fulfilled the criteria of requirements. 

Here the temperature wasn't harsh and there was access to water. However, because the area was basically a bunch of chunky pieces of ice forming large and small islands all over the place, it was too disconnected and aloof. 

What he logically needed to do was connect the ice and then stabilize it to prevent them from being swept away by the current. Luckily for James, he was the only one among the five apprentices who had naturally awakened the Ice element. 

Coupled with his Psychic element, it was easy enough for him to create a bridge that was made of Ice to all the chunks near him and then tether them to the main landmass a few hundred kilometers away. 

Now came the terraforming and James did not have a problem with this part, but his problem came in another way, which was that his nature was against forming territories or ruling people! 

However, this was an obstacle he would have to climb if he wanted to pass this test. 

And finally, there was the diligent Anthony who appeared in a small forest made of frozen barks and ruddy trees that seemed to prefer this kind of weather regardless of the consequences. 

Before he could even take stock of his bearing, he heard a roar and was slightly knocked forward by something hard and round. 

Anthony frowned and turned around casually to see that he was being confronted by a polar bear the size of a small house. Its fur was scarred and matted with blood, and its eyes were full of ferocity and hunger. 

[Icy Ravenous Bear - Level 83 Monster 

HP: 68,340/68,340 MP: 17,430/17,430 STA: 22,244/22,244 ] 

Anthony's eyes narrowed. This was a Grandmaster species that was native to this continent, the polar bear! They were a solitary race and were extremely violent, and they could use the power of ice to attack, not to mention their strength and constitution were very high. 

Apart from their slow speed and beastly nature, they had no other weaknesses except the fire element obviously. However, he obviously did not have access to this element, so Anthony could only take out his bo staff. 

The bear saw that he had the intention to fight back and became furious. It expected Anthony to lie down and happily scream in pain while he feasted on his flesh, not daring to fight back! 

As such, the bear raised its front legs and stomped the ground, causing a huge wave of sharp ice to fly toward Anthony.
