Chapter 21 - Skiing dash skill

⚡ Scene: Stealth Assessment — Cian's First Skiing Dash ⚡

The metallic hall of the Beastmaster Academy's stealth course gleamed under dim blue lights. Dozens of students stood along the observation deck, nervous, excited — waiting their turn to face the academy's infamous Stealth Trial.

A vast, obstacle-ridden arena stretched ahead: walls, beams, pressure sensors, and laser detection fields. At the far end, the exit gate awaited.

Instructors whispered, watching one particular student step forward.

Cian Archdemon.

Small frame. Cold face. Terrifying reputation.

> Name: Cian Archdemon

Cultivation: Foundation Body Tempering (Early Stage)

Bloodline Integration: 63%

Evolution Ability: Biological Enhancement — Eyes: 12%, Legs: 7%, Skin: 5%

Movement Skill: Skiing Dash (Lawful, Incomplete)

Beside him, his forbidden-class Shadow Lynx waited silently.

Inside his neural link, the cold, synthetic sweetness of the Divine System echoed:

💻 "System Notification: Stealth Trial initiated."

💻 "Warning: Detection systems active. Lawful movement efficiency required."

💻 "Recommending… Skiing Dash… Shall we glide, His Highness?"

Cian's expression didn't change.

The Trial Begins

The countdown flashed: 3… 2… 1…

Cian stepped onto the course.

Instantly, crimson lasers ignited across the arena — detection zones armed.

The students whispered:

"He's doomed… he's too small…"

"Without illegal skills… how will he pass…"

But then… Cian moved.

His feet pressed lightly onto the polished floor, knees bending unnaturally. His skin — subtly shifting texture — reduced friction precisely.

💻 "System Activation: Skiing Dash engaged… muscle coordination optimal… surface friction reduced… glide trajectory calculated."

Cian shot forward — silent, fluid, unnatural.

Like a shadow skating across ice, he weaved between detection fields — graceful, terrifyingly efficient.

---

The Divine System Whispered Sweetly:

💻 "Lawful gliding at twelve meters per second… competitors' confidence reduced by sixty-two percent… adorable."

Cian slid under a low beam, twisting seamlessly through laser grids. His eyes — already evolving — calculated every trajectory in real time.

No wasted movement. No unnecessary energy. Pure, lawful biological control.

Instructors' cybernetic lenses flickered, confused.

"Is he… sliding?"

"No magic detected…"

"That's… pure muscle and friction manipulation…"

---

Cian Reached the Finish

With a final sharp turn, he skated across the last stretch, stopping precisely at the exit gate.

No alarms. No detection. Total silence.

The Divine System chirped:

💻 "Stealth Trial: Complete."

💻 "Skiing Dash Efficiency: Eighty-seven percent… evolutionary progress commendable."

---

Status Update:

✔ Skiing Dash: Activated — Lawful, advanced movement technique

✔ Leg Evolution: Increased to 11%

✔ Skin Evolution: Increased to 8%

✔ No Reality Breaking Detected

The students and instructors stared, pale.

"He… glided like a ghost…"

"No forbidden magic… no cheats… but… he's terrifying…"

Cian remained quiet — grey eyes dull, calm, endlessly curious.

His lawful biological evolution… had only begun.
