Multi-Gene

David felt strangely excited in this situation. A single mistake could spell death for the students and although it wasn't his life that was on the line but the students, a life was still a life and this situation that looked like a gamble between life and death, strangely excited him. 

But it was as though the stone fist monkey understood their words. Black veins suddenly appeared in its fist again. 

Roar! Roar! 

"Shit! It is forcefully activating its genetic ability." Someone shouted. 

The male students that was at the back frowned deeply at the sudden situation and then as though making a difficult decision, he gritted his teeth as he responded "Do not move this time, I will take it's fist head-on since the strength of the ability would only be half of its original might while the rest of you support me if I fall." 

The remaining students instantly wanted to disagree but the stone fist monkey wouldn't wait for them to decide, so they could only grit their teeth in worry and accept his words. 

He moved swiftly to the front and the rest of the students retreated backwards. 

But the female student was quick to voice her disagreement "Fergus, stop, you can't." she cried out loud, almost rushing towards Fergus in an attempt to stop him. But was stopped by the other three male students who held her back. 

If they all dodged the attack, the stone fist monkey wouldn't be stupid and wait for them to block it again. It would instantly move towards David who was still opening the box and attack him with all its might. 

The students all knew this but no one of them was strong enough to take on the full strength of the stone fist monkey genetic ability, The Stone Fist. 

Fergus gaze softened and his will almost dissipated at her voice but he instantly hardened his gaze. Withdrawing a button from his pocket, Fergus threw it at the incoming huge fist that was about to crush him.

Wong! 

A blue transparent semi-circular barrier was suddenly formed in mid-air, meeting and obstructing the stone fist. 

Bang, crack! 

The barrier held out for only a second before it shattered into multiple pieces along with the button that had project the barrier.

Seeing this, Fergus squinted his eyes bit he had expected this, he hadn't hope the barrier would hold out, he just needed to reduce the strength of the incoming fist and then defend against it. Only then would he have the possibility to survive the strike.

Circulating his blood to the fullest of his ability, his blood moved like water and his heart pounded like thunder. Steam rose from his head and his skin began to turn red, showing he was revolving his blood at his maximum capacity.

He took in deep breaths as he placed his hands behind him, his muscles shook slightly and his skin vibrated. 

Tilting his body forwards with his legs still at the back, he brought forth his arm and he punched out like a knife stab! 

"Four revolution fist!"

Bam, bam, bam, Boom! 

His fist was like a pounding machine as they repeatedly punched at the incoming fist like a machine. 

The first punch wasn't very effective, the second punch, was okay. The third punch slowed the fist down.

While the fourth punch was the deciding factor, it connected directly to the fist which created a resounding boom as invincible shock waves spread through the atmosphere. 

Fergus wasn't even able to say a single word and he was instantly sent flying through the distance with blood sprouting out from his mouth. But the stone fist monkey staggered backwards. 

At the same time, David's voice sounded out in the atmosphere, "Done, let's go!" he had turned the box into a backpack during those time. 

He revolved his blood as he moved towards the direction Fergus had been sent to. 

The rest of the team weren't slow at all as they also revolved their blood to move in the same direction. 

Although the stone fist monkey was strong, its ability was strength and not speed, therefore it couldn't even hope to catch up to those cunning prey that had activated their motion techniques to flee and could only watch as they faded into the distance. 

Roar! 

In its anger, it destroyed the surrounding trees and ground, creating some type of rigid and rough environment in a single minute. 

After a few minutes of running and making sure the beast wasn't up on their tail, the two students supporting Fergus gently laid him to the ground, leaning his back to a tree.

Fergus condition was a bit critical as his bones appeared to have been dislocated and his blood circulation had been forcefully disrupted, showing by the redness on his face.

Blood spilled out of his nose and mouth but that had stopped in the few minutes they had run for. And he was currently unconscious. 

"Fergus!"

The female students among them rushed towards Fergus with tears in her eyes and the rest of the team gave her space to do ad she wished but her hand wasn't slow at all as she reach for her backpack, bringing out a stone size blood orb.

She pinched at it forcefully, the content within spilled out like a yoke to an egg. She then open Fergus's mouth widely and then forcing the content into his mouth.

David watched with an interested expression from the tree he was situated on. The four students were all focused on Fergus that it seemed they had forgotten about him.

They didn't even put up a guarded expression or stance and they seem relaxed but worried about Fergus's health. It was a bit foreign to David which made him even more interested in them. 

After emptying the entire content in his mouth, she reached again for her bag and brought out another blood orb from within. As she was about to break it apart and feed them to Fergus, she heard a voice say.

"Here."
