The Vampire Cat System-Chapter 32 Academy First Fight 2
Bernard thought Barry's transformation symbiote beast wasn't that strong likely due to their fusion rate and ranking, otherwise, he wouldn't have had such minor changes but a full-body transformation.
At this moment Bernard was still stunned by the pain he was feeling, the pain and the little drop of blood dripping from his arm was like a wake-up call to him shattering his previous mindset.
Realizations finally dawn on him, that whatever that was happening was neither fake, a videogame nor a Webnovel where he had miraculous plot armors to shield him from all harm.
And if he wanted a way out, shying away from fighting wouldn't do him any good but more harm.
Bernard stood still staring aimlessly, as Barry suddenly began to charge once more but this time he was much faster. At this moment, he didn't even react to the attack but when he did his expression immediately turned pale as he realized Barry was once again in front of him about to attack.

A bright flash of light suddenly appeared in front of Bernard's eyes making him close his eyes from the warm intensity. He could feel something click inside him.
The moment he opened his eyes, it was almost as if someone had switched off the light around him except for his location. However, he could now see arrows all around him, they appeared to make his vision sharper and more vibrant.
In the right corner of his leg, he could see an arrow that was beeping, the moment he step on it he got another notification.

As Barry swung his snake fist towards Bernard, to both his and Bernard's surprise although for completely different reasons he was able to dodge in the nick of time.
They separated, after that with a look of shock on Barry's and the other rank 3's students' faces, no one knew how but they knew he was able to dodge Barry's rank 2.5 snake fist. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
Although surprised Barry quickly came over it, and charged at Bernard again this time doing the same thing he did before by performing a snake fist trick, and just like before he managed to bite Bernard this time in his other arm.

Seeing these notifications made Bernard curse inwardly, at his bad luck. Not hesitating anymore, Bernard mustered all his strength and rushed forward at Barry, this time unfailing to follow the directions of the arrows around him.
Bernard charged at Barry, this time he wasn't even looking at him it could be said he was only looking and following whatever the arrows beeping in front of him that he would do.
Whenever the arrows at his left beep for him to move that was what he would do, if it beeps right with a curve he would move right and curve, the same thing could be said for his fists, this lasted for a couple of minutes until a notification abruptly interrupted his actions.
[Your first enemy has been successfully defeated!]

It was at this moment Bernard managed to calm down and looked at what was in front of him. The moment he did, he could see a rag and bloody person that stuck out like a sore thumb.
'Did I do this?' Bernard's eyes widened as he wondered. 'Is he dead?' This was another thought in not only his mind but other students' mind.
Raising his head up he managed to catch a glimpse of both fear and doubts in their expressions.

"Bernard?" At this moment Ryan's shocked and doubtful voice could be heard in his ears, everyone were wondering if it was the same kid who had rank 1 displayed on his bracelet or was it a rank 3 or even a rank 4 student pretending to be a rank 1 student.
[Auxiliary skill has been deactivated]
"How did he do that? At first, it seemed like he was randomly going at that scumbag, Barry…I could bet a rank 1 or even rank 2 doesn't fight like that no matter how strong their fusion rate is, except he's a rank 3 student or close to being a f*cking complete rank 4!" One of the rank 3's student said, breaking out in a cold sweat.
While the academy might say they were training symbiote beast users, sadly instead of humans, they become monsters at the end of the day. The people at the top were basically the strongest ones, the academy was like a jungle where it was nothing more than the survival of the fittest.
While they could bully weaker people than themselves, in turn, the same could be done to them. Even though they had doubts about Bernard being a rank 3 stronger version or rank 4, nobody wanted to test the waters.
In the past, a rank 3 had been completely crippled because of that, even losing his symbiote beast in the process.
Though the skill had been deactivated, Bernard was completely satisfied and relieved at the same time. Even though he had no idea what had happened during the process he didn't care. However, he was still worried at the other side of the hallway where a bunch of rank 3's students still staring at him warily.
Fortunately for him, his back was facing them and he had managed to keep his emotions in check with his bracelet inside his pocket.
At this moment, he suddenly got another notification.
