Opening Ceremony

As three of them were going, they met with a  tall blonde well-built little bit macho guy with 4 people following him approaching some steps in front of them. As soon as Lingling saw them she began sighing,

'Wew, why should it be him that we met on our first day?

She looked at Satomi and said more like warned him, 'Junior Brother, don't do anything even if we were insulted here, okay. We would be in trouble if we make a scene here'.

Why? What happened? What are you worried about, Sis Ling? Satomi was confused and asked Lingling as he looked around and saw a group of people were walking towards them.

'Well, that guy is called Freidrich Elstein 2nd Year like us but Ranked No. 9 in last year's  Elite Level Competition and he got backing of his elder brother Wilhelm Elstein who is Ranked No.3 in Veteran Level. He's a bully', Lingling looked worried as she told Satomi about those guys coming over to them.

And as Lingling was worried they stopped in front of them, Freidrich smirked at them and started talking like he was looking down at them arrogantly.

'Well, well what we have here, isn't it late runner duo Zhao Chen and Lingling.

Lingling and Chen looked down silently as the crowd started murmuring and some are whispering to each other.

One of the girls whispering to her friend, 'Lingling and Chen are being bullied again?'

The other one stopping her, 'Hush!, He'll hear you. Do you want to be bullied instead?'

Suddenly, a shout came out of nowhere, 'Stop it! Freidrich are you bullying a new student again?'

It was a Blue long hair girl along with another red hair brown skin girl covering her face with a cloth (not like a ninja though, know what I meant) wearing an arm-band "Disciplinary Student Council (DSC)".

'No, no, you got it wrong, member of DSC  Miss Emily Rothschild (Name of   Blue hair girl) Miss Agni Pyronia (Red hair girl/ Gatekeeper's Daughter), I'm just greeting Lingling and Chen here, isn't that right people'.

Friedrich looked around the crowd asking for an answer as he was denying the statement of the member of DSC. It was, in fact, the truth 'cause he haven't done anything.

The crowd moves along while saying, 'Cheh! I thought we'll have a good show here until those DSC showed up'.

Lingling and Chen were still silently standing if not for Satomi saying, 'So, can we go now? You are blocking our path, Fried Rice senpai.

'W..what did you just call me?'

Fried Rice I mean Freidrich was infuriated and was looking at them but the member of DSC shouted, 'What are you lots still standing here for? Hurry to the Main Hall Opening Ceremony will start in a minute.'

All the crowd disperse even the member of DSC rushed to the Main Hall. Late runner duo dragged Satomi to the Main Hall as the Academy has strict rules. They arrived there in about a minute and the Ceremony began.

The principal of Atlanta Academy starts speaking, " Today is this year's Opening Ceremony, I hope everyone is present here in this Hall. I welcome all the new students on behalf of Atlanta Academy'. We have a special guest here today so, let's welcome the Chairman of Atlanta Academy, Dragon level Martial Artist, the Strongest, the genius and the most talented one and only Florence Windblade Yuuki.

(Ahhhh... I'm so bad at this it's like I'm copying WWE host sorry about that)

The crowd goes, 'Kyaaaaa Yuuki sama' especially girls. Almost every girl idolized her, Florence raised her hand to make the crowd silence as she moves near the mic and started with her speech.

"As this Ceremony means especially for newcomers, You might not be good at fighting, destroying, You might be weak or might be strong beyond compare but always remember you reach here cause you're good at something. Protect the normal citizens, your family, your loved one like we were protected by old generations from Demons with the price of their life'. You are the next generation we'll protect you while you train to become strong like we were protected by the old generations. 'I am called the strongest but not all the time there are people who made me the strongest they are called Comrades the Team'. Together we grow stronger, We'll protect each other and We'll destroy our enemies in front of us". Welcome to Atlanta Academy".

The crowd goes like, wooooooooooh!!! We will do our best.

The ceremony goes on for like half an hour and Vote of thanks speech by Student Council President Schwartz Rothschild (Master Level Ranking No.1).

'Ahemm, I thank all of you for giving me time to speak at the wonderful event. I just want to add something here, I'm not against anyone any woman but, as a man is anyone here not interest in becoming the strongest?

Every man in Hall goes, Uwahhhhhhhh (like turning into super saiyan 3). That's the spirit guys. Do your best, Thank you'.

The ceremony ends and after that, every new student was given a Rule book and a refreshment in an Academy Cafeteria.

'That Rothschild was not bad, remarkable ability to be a Leader can boost a soldier's morale'.

Satomi was in his thought as the three of them were walking the Academy Corridor both Lingling and Chen show their gratitude for calling the arrogant Freidrich as Fried rice.

'Thank you Junior brother'. They bowed at him showing gratitude towards him.

'Not yet, we've got someone tailing us. Implicit Satomi as he sensed that someone was still following them.

It was Freidrich and his squad seeking trouble again, speaking arrogantly, 'Yo, we meet again New student and late runner duo'. 'Can we have a chat?'

'Leave us alone'. Lingling dragged both Satomi and Chen outside the Academy Entrance but Freidrich and his squad followed them.

'Don't let them leave we have to teach them a lesson', hurried Freidrich and his squad but they got nowhere to run as four of the other guys blocked the path. 'Going somewhere' they were laughing at them.

Zhao Chen Shouted with anger, 'Freidrich don't go too far if it's not for your brother I would have beat you ages ago.'

But Freidrich still mocked at him saying, 'Ohhh... what are you gonna do? Ehhh... Widow's Child?

After hearing this word every one of them can only feel the gust of wind While Freidrich flies towards the entrance wall. Everyone was shocked while Satomi jumps towards Friedrich who was unconscious and speaks, 'Didn't he told you not to go too far? Eh... Fried Rice kun?' and he looked at Squad members, his face looks like that of an evil murderer and he walks towards them.

Everyone was shocked and scared but Lingling shouted with tearful eyes,

'Junior Brother, stop!!! Come to your sense, Stop making that scary face'.

She ran towards him and hold on to Satomi's hand and Satomi calm down but still shouted with anger,

'You dogs still standing here or you want some too? SCRAM!!!'

And other members of Freidrich squad walk away towards unconscious Freidrich but Satomi warned them saying, 'Next time there will be five dead bodies', and looked at them with an evil smile. They ran away dragging unconscious Freidrich.

SFX; Khooong!!!

Lingling hit Satomi's head and was annoyingly started shouting, 'Stop making that scary face you idiot of a junior'.

But while both of them bowed at Satomi to show their gratitude thanking him. Suddenly, a person approaches him with fast movement as Satomi was about to look back, Satomi's hand was locked behind his back and she places the back of her Wakizashi on his throat and that person started speaking it was a female's voice.

'Don't move!!! If I were an enemy you would have been dead'.

Then she loosens her hand and when Satomi looked back that at the same time Late runner duo looked up all they can see was Black Short hair girl jumping towards the wood with Wakizashi on back of her waist.

Zhao Chen in his thought, "Even after listening to S.C President speech, Women are still scary!"

Each Level has 3 stages Early Middle and Peak.

Rookie is your everyday Martial Artist say martial art on a real-life level most of the citizens can do this here. In the Art of Combat world not everyone.

Early Elite Level can handle 5 Peak Rookie Level Easily (Peak Rookie = About to enter to Elite Level) Freidrich is Middle Elite Level while Zhao Chen is at Peak and those Friedrich squad member and Lingling were at Early

Veteran Level are mostly 3rd-year students like Emily and Agni

Expert are mostly 4th-year students I guess I can't really measure their power please herpes (help) me, Buy a SCOUTER (which Vegeta wore on DBZ)

Master Level has the ability to destroy a small village with their skill I guess. (Worthy to be Student council president. He is in his final year)

People at Legend level are Teachers some like principal and Gatekeeper are at Dragon Level.

While measuring Yuuki's power Level my SCOUTER broke.

Before demons came out from the rift there were Monsters beasts. Hunters hunt monsters to make a living now they changed their Association to Demon Hunter Association, they still hunt monsters. Mana users or magicians are also present in this Art of Combat world. I'm bad at explanation so I have to give an example even if I have to Spoil some of the stories but I change my mind.

Note: Wakizashi is a Short katana which ninja carries I guess if I'm not wrong.

If you have a better idea on the Ranking System let me know in the comment. Please make me a better writer let me know my mistakes in the comment.
