00:07:22Let's go.
00:07:49Card draw. Ice shot. Basic tier. Current collection. Three abilities. Slots. Two of two. Three abilities. Two slots.
00:08:12Director Reynolds, you should see this.
00:08:19This young man. Pull his file. The test says nothing. The footage says three. Which one do we trust?
00:08:35A civilian demonstrating ability? That contradicts a century of awakening biology. The instruments are the reliable variable here, not some
00:08:44rift zone anomaly.
00:08:45Three independent scans, Hargraath. Then the scans confirmed it. He has no ability.
00:08:50If he genuinely has these abilities and we leave him unmonitored, what happens the next time the rift opens in
00:08:57a populated area?
00:08:58Merit is our standard. Not bloodline. Not test scores.
00:09:03Merit is our standard. Find him.
00:09:13What are you?
00:09:22Cole Brennan?
00:09:24Who are you?
00:09:30Pinnacle Academy. Admissions office. The Chancellor wants to meet you, tomorrow.
00:09:45Pinnacle Academy. You think they don't screen their applications?
00:09:51No ability. Not low. Zero.
00:09:56That's what's on your file.
00:09:58They're not going to make an exception for a delivery boy because he got lucky near a rift.
00:10:04Stop staring at it.
00:10:06Your bag's been sitting there for 20 minutes.
00:10:09Food gets cold.
00:10:20Not to prove anything.
00:10:22Not to them.
00:10:25Not to him.
00:10:27Pinnacle has Class D rift acts.
00:10:30Restricted zones.
00:10:32Places that don't show up in any civilian database.
00:10:34But in those rifts, something happened in there.
00:10:37That envelope is an invitation.
00:10:39It's a door.
00:10:45I'll go.
00:10:47I'll go.
00:11:11No badge.
00:11:12No uniform either.
00:11:13Is he ordinary?
00:11:18No badge.
00:11:19No uniform.
00:11:21What are you doing in here?
00:11:22Meeting with Director Reynolds.
00:11:23Reynolds.
00:11:24I'm here to see the director.
00:11:26Reynolds?
00:11:31What?
00:11:32Did a rift open near your house?
00:11:34You looking for someone to come deal with it?
00:11:36Nobody said I needed a uniform to walk down a hallway.
00:11:40My grandfather helped build this program.
00:11:42My dad held the school fire record until two years ago.
00:11:46Every Ashford who walked these halls earned their spot.
00:11:49You looked me up.
00:11:55Your file says no ability.
00:11:57But surveillance caught you using Flame and Shockwave during the E3 rift incident.
00:12:01I didn't know what was happening to me.
00:12:04I still don't fully understand it.
00:12:06The Brennan name is in this building's founding records.
00:12:08I need to verify your abilities.
00:12:11Not because I doubt what I saw on the footage.
00:12:14Because this academy has to see it for itself.
00:12:17Tomorrow.
00:12:18The entrance exam.
00:12:20Prove your worth.
00:12:22I will.
00:12:28That's the one Reynolds let in?
00:12:30Zero on the F-Greed assessment.
00:12:33Literally zero.
00:12:34He's not even wearing a uniform.
00:12:40Ladies and gentlemen.
00:12:41He actually showed up.
00:12:42I told you yesterday.
00:12:44I told all of you.
00:12:45Reynolds let a civilian walk through the front gate.
00:12:47And here he is.
00:12:48Ready for his assessment.
00:12:52Every single one of you earned your spot.
00:12:54Tests.
00:12:55Certifications.
00:12:55Years of training.
00:12:57And Reynolds just hands this guy a pass.
00:13:00So I asked Reynolds to let me go first today.
00:13:03Set the bar.
00:13:04Remind everyone what this place is actually for.
00:13:16That's D-rank fire.
00:13:17Top of the class.
00:13:19I've been doing this since I was 14.
00:13:21Your turn, Brennan.
00:13:22Show us what Reynolds risked her reputation for.
00:13:27Big throw.
00:13:28Biggest he's got.
00:13:29You can see it coming from across the room.
00:13:32His whole body loads up before he lets go.
00:13:35One shot, he's already winded.
00:13:37That was his best.
00:13:38And he wasted it on a practice dummy.
00:13:44That was your best shot?
00:13:47Excuse me?
00:13:48You asked to go first.
00:13:50You picked the biggest dummy on the floor.
00:13:53Held the fireball an extra second.
00:13:55So everyone could see it.
00:13:56So, is that it?
00:14:00You have no idea what you're walking into.
00:14:03People with real training walk into D-rank rifts and don't come back.
00:14:07You got lucky once in some alley and you think that makes you one of us.
00:14:10I don't think I'm one of you.
00:14:12I think I'm here to take a test.
00:14:14And you're in the way.
00:14:21Cole Brennan.
00:14:22It's your turn.
00:14:24Demonstrate your ability.
00:14:27Forget him.
00:14:28Forget the crowd.
00:14:30None of them matter right now.
00:14:33Reynolds knows something about Mom and Dad.
00:14:35She has to.
00:14:36And Pinnacle has D-Rag Rift access.
00:14:39That's where they were last seen.
00:14:42That's why I'm here.
00:14:43This is the only shot I've got.
00:14:45Don't blow it.
00:14:53My academy fire record was set at 14.
00:14:56My father held the school record before that?
00:14:59And you're showing me that?
00:15:01Guess we'll see.
00:15:02Standard duel.
00:15:03Begin.
00:15:04Good.
00:15:05A public fight.
00:15:06Everyone watch.
00:15:07If I win this, nobody will say I don't belong.
00:15:27D-Rank fire at that output?
00:15:29This needs to be called.
00:15:31Watch.
00:15:33Every throw, same windup, same angle.
00:15:36He can't steer it once it's out.
00:15:38And between shots, his hands drop.
00:15:40He has to reload.
00:15:41That's all I need.
00:16:02You got lucky.
00:16:03That's all that was.
00:16:05You're still doing the same thing.
00:16:08All just power, no adjustment.
00:16:11He throws the same way every time and never learns mid-fight.
00:16:20Two offensive abilities at the same time?
00:16:23Not at the same time.
00:16:26One amplifies the other.
00:16:53Winner, Cole Brennan.
00:16:59Two abilities combined.
00:17:01Interesting.
00:17:03Pure force with no control is useless.
00:17:05Derek fought for his pride, his ranking, his name.
00:17:09I'm not here for any of that.
00:17:12Cole Brennan enrolled.
00:17:14This is not an outcome this institution can accept.
00:17:18We have thresholds.
00:17:20Ability requirements that exist for a reason.
00:17:24An unregistered ordinary person in a live combat curriculum is a liability to every student in this building.
00:17:28He demonstrated two distinct offensive abilities combined under active combat conditions.
00:17:32He has no rank, no ability history, no institutional record.
00:17:35Neither did Holt when he enrolled.
00:17:36Neither did Price.
00:17:37This academy has one standard.
00:17:39Can they perform?
00:17:40F rank access.
00:17:42That's the first door.
00:17:43Behind that, E rank, then D.
00:17:45D rank is where mom and dad disappeared.
00:17:47I just got one step closer.
00:17:49So we're giving a permanent seat to someone whose file reads zero.
00:17:53This isn't enrollment.
00:17:54It's charity.
00:18:05No reading at all.
00:18:06Not even a trace.
00:18:08Next.
00:18:09Zero.
00:18:10Not low.
00:18:11Zero.
00:18:12You know what that means, right?
00:18:13It means the machine didn't even bother trying.
00:18:16Your parents scored the same tests when they were your age.
00:18:19Top marks.
00:18:20And look where that got them.
00:18:27Their world is so far from mine.
00:18:31Eighteen years of being told I'm nothing.
00:18:33And now I'm holding this.
00:18:41Come on.
00:18:42You just fought a D-grank.
00:18:44And now your hands won't stop.
00:18:46I still don't know what you are.
00:18:48But whatever this is, thank you.
00:18:58You're in now, Brennan.
00:19:00Don't screw it up.
00:19:05Third day in.
00:19:07Still feel like I'm trespassing.
00:19:14Hey.
00:19:15You lost?
00:19:17Cafeterio staff entrance is on the south side.
00:19:19You think he cheated?
00:19:20Has to be.
00:19:21No way a zero beats a D-rank legit.
00:19:25They don't have to like me.
00:19:27They just have to see what happens next.
00:19:37Cold.
00:19:39Solo drills.
00:19:40Far lane.
00:19:41Fine by me.
00:19:50He's stacking them.
00:19:52Shockwave opens the lane.
00:19:53Flame follows through.
00:20:08Two abilities. That's what I've got right now. I have to make them work until I can get more.
00:20:12You're burning through the practice surface.
00:20:14Sorry. I'll move to the far end. Six days to the expedition. Every rep is one less thing I have
00:20:21to figure out in the field.
00:20:42Team up with your classmates. Your score will be calculated by your team's kill counts.
00:20:51Alex. Fire support. Marcus. Shield coverage. Jenny. Speed. Lily, you're in.
00:21:01My family's remote analysts have already pushed the Ash Flats modeling to your terminals.
00:21:05Spawn rates, weaknesses, safe routes. Follow the algorithm. We clear the field.
00:21:10Wow. Whole outsourced team playing the game for you? Hardcore Derek? Should I clap for your analysts?
00:21:33Solo operation is permitted. All students must participate.
00:21:38Going in alone? Good luck out there. Ordinary.
00:21:43I was going in alone either way. That's so.
00:21:52Northeast corner. Higher concentration. Right move.
00:21:56Two abilities. One weak. I really hope that's enough.
00:22:00node up.
00:22:04One, two rules. двух choices. We pull down.
00:22:16Two, three rules. Co- tuned.
00:22:16Three, two rules Packers.
00:22:17Four, seven, three rules.
00:22:18Four, eight, five goals.
00:22:35Good. Less noise. I can finally focus on the killing.
00:23:26Kill confirmed. Card draw initiating.
00:23:31Windblade. Shockwave opens it. Flame closes it. Not the other way around.
00:23:45Kill 14 confirmed.
00:24:04Current collection. Five abilities. Slots. Two of two. Five. First time I'm choosing my own fight. Not reacting. Choosing. Five
00:24:16cards. Two hands. That's the game.
00:24:32Yeah, I know, right? Dude, I got this new gun. It's sick.
00:24:36I can't believe we did that.
00:24:38Ten confirmed. Sector two. Northeast quarter. Clean sweep.
00:24:56Alpha team. Derek Ashford. Ten confirmed kills.
00:24:59Derek Ashford team. Ten confirmed. All teams report to the command center.
00:25:11Northeast sector, right?
00:25:13Yeah.
00:25:14Tags registered at 41 separate positions. That's a lot of ground.
00:25:18That can't. That can't be right.
00:25:22Cole Brannan. Solo operation. 30 confirmed kills.
00:25:37That's not possible. Our family AI calculated the physical ceiling.
00:25:4122 kills. Maximum. 30. Solo alone? That breaks the model.
00:25:48Wow. Just enough. So that multi-million supercomputer of yours can't keep up with a delivery guy's muscle memory? System
00:25:56glitch, Prince?
00:26:10Well done.
00:26:21The surveillance feed for the Northeast sector, covers 40 minutes of active expedition time. We are requesting a full review
00:26:30under chapter 7.
00:26:391 kills. 7 kills. 15 kills. 22 kills. 30 kills. Feed is clean. No manipulation. 30 solo kills confirmed.
00:26:53The Northeast sector. That zone is outside the optimal routing parameters. He couldn't have known the creature density without it.
00:26:59The Northeast boundary zone's density is in the terrain briefing. Page 4.
00:27:10What was that route?
00:27:11He mapped it beforehand. From the briefing.
00:27:15Rank 20. E-rank access is next. E-rank accessed. 5 kills and tomorrow clears.
00:27:22Okay. 5 more.
00:27:27Okay. 5 more.
00:27:42Hey, sit here. I mean, I just have questions.
00:27:49Questions.
00:27:50Yeah, sit down.
00:27:52My team pulled 8 total. I got 4, which is fine for E-rank. Earth Tremors don't stack kills fast.
00:27:57But you were solo. And you got 30. What route did you run?
00:28:02Northeast sector.
00:28:04Boundary zone.
00:28:05The boundary zone.
00:28:06The boundary zone.
00:28:07Most teams avoid it because...
00:28:09Wait.
00:28:11That's exactly why you went there.
00:28:16You drew out a kill route, didn't you?
00:28:18After the briefing.
00:28:19When everyone left.
00:28:21Sat there and mapped it.
00:28:23Yeah.
00:28:24That's insane.
00:28:26That's also kind of brilliant.
00:28:31Also, I'm just gonna say this. The ordinary thing? I don't care. You've got abilities. You're in the school. What's
00:28:36the argument?
00:28:38Apparently several.
00:28:39Derek can argue with the ranking board.
00:28:42There it is. Knew you weren't a robot.
00:28:46I'm not a robot.
00:28:47You walk like one.
00:28:49I'm just saying.
00:28:50You know what?
00:28:51Exact foot placement.
00:28:53Every step.
00:28:55That's not completely like a robot.
00:29:02Training tomorrow.
00:29:03You want to run drills?
00:29:04I want to see what you actually do with the flame shockwave combo.
00:29:10Sure.
00:29:12I've spent every day here running the math on every conversation.
00:29:16What they want.
00:29:17What it costs.
00:29:18But I think I've just made my first friend here.
00:29:27Wait.
00:29:29Three?
00:29:30I've got three now.
00:29:35Jake.
00:29:36Get there early.
00:29:40Okay.
00:29:41I've been thinking about this since yesterday.
00:29:43Show me the combo.
00:29:44Good morning.
00:29:45Morning.
00:29:46Morning.
00:29:46Show me the combo.
00:29:48You haven't even warmed up.
00:29:50I warmed up thinking about this.
00:29:52Show me.
00:30:03Is that a third one?
00:30:06It unlocked this morning.
00:30:07Okay.
00:30:09We are absolutely skipping warm up.
00:30:22I didn't know it would do that.
00:30:25You didn't plan that?
00:30:26I planned fire and ice.
00:30:29Not this.
00:30:30If this hits something that can dodge fire but not ice.
00:30:33Or the other way around.
00:30:35It can't dodge both.
00:30:37You need to be on my team.
00:30:39For every expedition from now on.
00:30:42Take this!
00:30:57This morning I had a ceiling.
00:30:59Two slots.
00:31:00Eight combinations.
00:31:01I knew every angle.
00:31:02Now I don't know what this can do yet.
00:31:05That's...
00:31:06Different.
00:31:08You ever stop calculating?
00:31:10Not really.
00:31:12Must be exhausting.
00:31:14It's useful.
00:31:16Fair.
00:31:22There's a fourth slot ahead.
00:31:24I'm going to need it.
00:31:34E-Rank Rift access granted.
00:31:37Let's go.
00:31:39You sure?
00:31:40E-Rank...
00:31:40E-Rank Earth.
00:31:41I'm literally named for this.
00:31:43You're F-Rank Earth that does E-Rank damage sometimes.
00:31:46Same thing.
00:31:47E-Rank...
00:31:47...
00:31:50E-Rank...
00:31:51E-Rank...
00:31:56E-Rank...
00:31:58E-Rank...
00:32:03Three slots.
00:32:05First time I've had them all loaded going into something real.
00:32:07Something's tracking us.
00:32:09Picked us up about thirty meters back.
00:32:12E-Rank...
00:32:13E-Rank...
00:32:14E-Rank...
00:32:26That would have killed three F-Rakes.
00:32:28It's E-Rack.
00:32:59Jake!
00:32:59Jake!
00:33:15Jake!
00:33:16Jake!
00:33:18Jake!
00:33:18Jake!

00:33:27Jake!
00:33:30Jake!
00:33:30That's different.
00:33:31That was... yeah.
00:33:34We come back with a better plan.
00:33:36Maybe a third person?
00:33:39I need to go deeper.
00:33:43Solo again?
00:33:44You can't sustain tremors at that depth.
00:33:46And what I've got right now, it's not enough.
00:33:50I need what's deeper in there.
00:33:52I'll be here when you get back.
00:33:55Three abilities.
00:33:56All three in a real fight.
00:33:58Not a drill.
00:34:02Yesterday with Jake, the fog just sat there.
00:34:06Now it's moving.
00:34:08Jake said he'd be here when I got back.
00:34:13Go away.
00:34:14I'll be here when I got back.
00:34:16The big one of you...

00:35:05Support ability acquired.
00:35:07Common draw. Not what I need.
00:35:10Keep going.
00:35:26That's the boss.
00:35:36Walk around it.
00:35:38I don't know if flame cuts through that or just...
00:35:42disappears into it.
00:35:47Mom.
00:35:48I'm coming.
00:36:33I've hit it so many times, yet he's not hurt at all.
00:36:37Not yet. No.
00:36:57Elite creature defeated.
00:36:59Card draw initiated.

00:37:21Name, Brennan.
00:37:22Brennan.
00:37:23Th-th-that is my name.
00:37:26That is my family's name.
00:37:28They were here. Not nearby.
00:37:31Here. In this rift.
00:37:33Ten years ago.
00:37:35I'm not looking for them anymore.
00:37:37I know where to look.
00:37:39What happened?
00:37:40I got lightning storm.
00:38:03It's just rankings, Derek.
00:38:05One month.
00:38:05He scored zero on the ability test.
00:38:08He delivered food for a living.
00:38:10No family legacy.
00:38:11No registered ability rank.
00:38:12No documented training history.
00:38:14No!
00:38:16How does rank 12 make sense?
00:38:24Everything okay?
00:38:26Yeah.
00:38:30The family has been tracking the anomaly.
00:38:31An unregistered ordinary at rank 12.
00:38:34After four months.
00:38:35Using abilities with no documented training history.
00:38:38And no ability rec on file.
00:38:39This is not a student.
00:38:41This is unquantifiable data.
00:38:42In a system built on quantifiable outcomes.
00:38:46Unquantifiable data disrupts capital allocation.
00:38:48When investors cannot model the variable.
00:38:50They remove the variable.
00:38:52This is not personal, Derek.
00:38:54This is how the system protects itself.
00:38:56I understand.
00:39:06Thy point of life.
00:39:08They are having three slots.
00:39:09It is still weird having three.
00:39:10It is still weird having three.
00:39:23When death is��ish.
00:39:34monster eliminated
00:39:37card draw available
00:39:50you took rank 12 for me
00:39:52you've taken everything
00:39:56this ends here same slot same sector
00:39:59this was planned
00:40:04derek
00:40:13every time you win it's luck
00:40:18a trick you're ordinary you want to fight
00:40:22fine
00:40:27it's reddit good
00:40:37what that's
00:40:41you have lightning storm i earned it
00:41:06don't follow me into rifts again
00:41:10how how do you get that power
00:41:12i'm not here for you derek
00:41:13i never was
00:41:33top ten cole you're in the top ten i saw it rank ten i also saw rank eight who's at
00:41:40eight madison frost they call her the ice queen she's got it
00:41:45she's been ranked eight since she enrolled nobody's touched her nobody challenges madison rank ten i've been watching your ascent
00:41:52you're systematic that's unusual for someone without an ability history monthly ranking challenge is permitted above rank 15 you could
00:42:00challenge rank eight
00:42:00when tomorrow arena three
00:42:05she didn't come to rattle me she came to schedule me that's the difference
00:42:09she approached you she's rank eight why would she bother
00:42:14she wants to know what i am
00:42:15she wants to know what i am
00:42:16that's creepy
00:42:17also terrifying
00:42:18okay what are you actually going to do
00:42:20she's frost type
00:42:21she controls the whole arena
00:42:22frost abilities lock down mobility
00:42:24she'll expect me to run flame into her domain she'll have counters ready
00:42:28so don't run flame
00:42:31i didn't say that how many hidden cards do you have
00:42:36you're going to be fine also you're a little scary
00:42:49she doesn't look angry
00:42:52that's the problem
00:43:01this is my range everything inside it is ice
00:43:10she's reading my loadout in real time smart
00:43:25you have strong combinetics but fire doesn't function well at this temperature
00:43:29the base tier can't keep pace with the regeneration rate your fire is based here
00:43:34advanced lightning storm genuinely impressive for an ordinary
00:43:36but i've fought three slot users before the math doesn't change more combinations same ceiling
00:43:46she's right about the ceiling time to move it
00:43:51that's enough
00:43:58what are you that heat level that is an upgraded fire plasma tier you've had this the entire fight
00:44:04i had it i had it i hadn't needed it
00:44:19choose the law choice
00:44:22and that's enough for the thing you've got to get me out of the field

00:48:27No!
00:48:27No!
00:48:51We won we got lucky next round that won't be enough he's not listening every time I call a
00:48:57direction he goes the opposite just to show me he doesn't have to we cannot go into a central academy
00:49:03team fight like this same as last time we adjust as we go they run a rotating cover pattern their
00:49:17two shield fuser cycle with their ranged attackers if we let them set up we're playing defense the
00:49:21whole match I'll handle you can't handle both shield rotation solo and we none of us can that's
00:49:30the point I'll improvise I'm out
00:50:03one more loss and we're out third match is central academy brandon's team
00:50:10cole's formation had answers for what western just did we didn't use it
00:50:14she's right cole how did you clock the shield rotation three days ago before we'd even seen
00:50:20their footage I cross-referenced their last four matches the second shoulder always comes in on
00:50:26a four second delay it's drilled not reactive cole had it he had it three days ago he covered my
00:50:32retreat he saw their targeting pattern before I did I don't like it you don't have to like it
00:50:39the relay runner in their pattern that was the break point yes you saw that in the footage
00:50:47third match northern region qualifier what's the formation for central academy five person rotation
00:50:55sofia anchors center you pressure their left from distance don't close madison holds the right corridor
00:51:01jake runs interference on their relay runner I connect the zones he's not convinced I'm right
00:51:07he just ran out of ways to prove I'm wrong that's enough we can work with that
00:51:21central academy's secondary squad three of last year's semi-finalists pinnacle hasn't won a
00:51:27against role in six years Derek hold fire until you see the left relay break not before
00:51:33I know what about me your fastest chase the relay runner don't let them anchor their rotations
00:51:41easy nothing about this is easy already planned
00:51:48now
00:52:13jake now
00:52:21pinnacle academy team victory there it is two seconds that's your limit I'll take it
00:52:30good call on the relay runner we actually yeah we got it that's I didn't know it would feel like
00:52:37that
00:52:37decent team win but team fights are formations solo is different
00:52:43I watched the footage so did my coaching staff they didn't see what you saw
00:52:50semi-finals see you there
00:52:54b rank fire fire domain 16 tournament fights 15 wins the one loss was a draw technical he's never
00:53:01been stopped I need something he has no footage on I need all four slots in a sequence that doesn't
00:53:06exist in any match record I need to invent it before Thursday
00:53:16okay I looked him up b rank fire that means his output's at what three four times what Madison had
00:53:23about three so your ice thing won't reach him gone before it gets there which version do you think
00:53:28he'll use the one that looks like he's going easy on me every ability he has is built to end
00:53:34a fight fast
00:53:36he doesn't play defense because he's never needed to
00:53:41I think there's a seam I just don't know what it looks like yet
00:53:52I'll try not to end it too fast
00:53:55semi-final special recruit Cole Brannon no registered rank versus two-time champion
00:54:02Brandon Chase B rank fire specialist
00:54:10good combinations you're actually trying
00:54:28you've got one slot left that you haven't shown me I've been counting whatever it is it's not
00:54:34going to be enough but I'm genuinely curious what you pull out one slot left make it count
00:54:49whatever the last slot is I'd like to see it come on cold
00:55:06five
00:55:28legendary tear
00:55:36brandon chase unable to continue winner cole brennan legendary tear five splots how are you
00:55:43ordinary I'm not sure ordinary was ever the right word no I don't think it was
00:55:57that's what five feels like all of it at once tomorrow's a different problem
00:56:14brandon had no answer for the five ability sequence nobody's going to Sophia will have an answer
00:56:19that's the problem then figure out answers to her answers first time Derek's giving me something that
00:56:24it wasn't a fight
00:56:25I don't know what to do with that
00:56:35I forfeit
00:56:50I forfeit
00:56:51not the title
00:56:53not the title
