Just as Luciel had expected, 7 days had already passed but the strong winds and rain didn’t show any sign of abating at all.

Because of it, Mia and the other earth users also had to go out from time to time to strengthen the earth around them to prevent it from further loosening, which would cause them to slide down.

Aside from the earth users, the water users were also helping by removing the excess water content in the land around them.

When they got up the mountain, they had already seen a lot of landslides from the past, and a few days ago, they had also heard something from below them, so some areas of the mountain probably had landslides again.

Aside from them, the others really couldn’t do much, so they just continued training themselves and having some sparring against each other so that they wouldn’t be too bored.

Most of the adults couldn’t really spar with all their strength and would just treat it as exercise because the space around them wasn’t enough.

As for the older kids, like Astrid and the others, they had more serious spars because the space was still enough for them.

Most of them were sparring individually, or sometimes they would try to fight by twos; however, they couldn’t add more people and were only limited to two because of the space, unlike what they were doing when they were in the North Base.

When they were in the North Base, the older kids liked training in two groups and fighting each other aside from the people that they were usually working with.

The group members weren’t constant, but they always try to work together with each other even if their members were always changing.

So, they had managed to train how to work with all the others aside from the people that they were often working with.

Because of such routines, Ian and Reyna also managed to integrate with the other older kids easily even though they were behind in terms of ability.

Of course, while sparring by twos, they’re also partnering with different people so that they could train how to cooperate with others better.

And since most of the adults were only training and didn’t have anything to do, they’re also coaching the kids while they’re resting.

Sometimes, when there are a lot of them, they would even pick their teams and start coaching each team to defeat the other team. They would ask the kids to move exactly how they tell them while fighting the others.

So, the adults were having fun while the kids were also learning more because whoever was coaching them had to be mindful of their stamina and ability.

The kids were also able to learn things that they never thought they could currently do, so they’re also having fun learning a lot of things.

Because they were having too much fun doing it, they even called him and Treyton. When he was in the mood and Treyton wasn’t busy, both of them would sometimes agree.

The others felt that it would be unfair if the two of them worked together to coach just one team, so they always coach different teams.

And the kids would also always try to have all of them be coached by them, so the kids that they were coaching were always different as the kids were also very eager to learn from them.

Whenever the two of them were called, the sparring match against the kids that they were coaching would always be a bit longer because, even though their style of combat is a bit different, both of them could still teach the kids how to fight and defend better.

Most of the time, the sparring of the kids that they were handling would only end when the kids’ stamina was really out already and they couldn’t really move any longer to continue sparring with each other.

However, even though the kids’ energy would be thoroughly used up, they would still energetically say that they wanted to do it again because they were learning more things from them.

Luciel and Treyton would still agree when they weren’t doing anything, but if they had something to do, then the kids could only continue training on their own or the other adults would coach them.

However, Luciel and Treyton also said that they would only do it while they’re still trapped in the mountains and do it sometimes in the future, because it won’t be good for the kids if they were always coaching them to move.

He and Treyton could always give precise and exact commands to the kids, including the distance that they should take and other things, which is indeed helpful for the kids as they learned more about what they could do while being led by their hands.

However, they shouldn’t rely too much on it because, in the end, they’re the ones who were fighting and they had to think of what to do on their own.

The kids still have time to think on their own when the others were coaching them and could even act on their own; however, when it comes to his and Treyton’s turn, they couldn’t think much, which would be bad for them in the long term if they got used to it.

Even though he and Treyton were good and didn’t teach them any bad habits while giving those precise orders, when it comes to fighting, people should always have their own ideas as they’re the ones who will continue fighting on their own for a long time.

He and the others couldn’t do the fighting for them, so they could only do it while they’re still trapped to add some liveliness, but they shouldn’t do it often in the future.

On the seventh day, he and Treyton were coaching different teams; he had Astrid and Ian while Treyton was handling Reyn and Austin.

They were focused on coaching the pairs, but they heard a loud sound of rumbling and crashing from the side of the mountain, so they stopped for a bit.
