A large open space shaped by those with control of the Earth Element to be an open area. This area lies outside the Classroom to allow room for the soldiers of Yuran to train their bodies and elements.
This is also a good place to train flying because of its large open space
As of Maria's overhaul of the country, this area is full of life of all kinds, small woodland creatures and sparse wildlife litter the area. It is tended to by powerful, loving centaur warriors.

Gabe marveled at the new training area. It was much better than the old place for sure. "Pfft whatever. I'm gonna wreck this place like I did with the last one!" It was time to learn some new stages. He'd start off with Muay Thai. A very lethal style that even his father knew. The old man was a book of secrets, but Gabe knew them all from years of spying. He loved his father even if the old man viewed him as a complete failure. "I'll show you father..." He mumbled getting into a crouch position to jump around. His face was dead serious, but he looked absolutely ridiculous. After that he performed a couple hours of rigorous training to toughen up his body. Such as kicks, punches blocks and grabs against hard materials.
"Wing...Chun...What..." Gabe didn't really like the name. It sounded off and not bad a** like him. He couldn't defeat an opponent with such a style, but after reading into the scroll he soon discovered that the style was just bad a** enough for his person. "Ok!! Lets geet it!" It was quite obvious that Wing Chun needed a partner in order to train with. The old place didn't have people on standby like the new place and the people stationed there seemed to know every style to help trainers. After the two were done, Gabe thanked his partner and went on to other styles.
The Second Style of Capoeira didn't seem so difficult. The techniques were simple so all he needed to do were simple exercises. "Hmph..." It dissapointed him, but that was all he had to do. Starting with an hour of cardio, followed by an hour of flexibility exercises and finishing it off with abdominal exercises.
Stage two of the Berzerkers Style was just his ********' JAM!! "AWWW YEAAAAAH!!!" He shouted idiotically as he ran outside to nearest possible tree. He was jumping with pure excitement. "Ladies and gentlemen! Are you ready for the worlds strongest Waktu?!" For the next thirty seconds he would mindlessly punch into the poor, innocent tree for thirty seconds without pause. "******** YEEEEEAH!!!!!" People nearby ran away scared at the madman punching a tree. The scroll said that the training would be complete once 100 punches were delivered in thirty seconds. He made sure to break that record on his first go. Pronta would continue to have trees. Except for the one he destroyed completely even after it fell. It took him a while to regain his composure.

Gabe would undertake the second stage of Dim Mak. Dim Mak was the only style that actually scared Gabe. It revolved around somethingbso insidious that he wasn't used to doing. His approach was usually direct and aggressive. Dim Mak was the exact opposite. He could either practice with himself or find a training partner. Gabe didn't feel like killing himself by plugging a Chi point that blocked his air circulation. The two fought for as long as Gabe needed to fully understand the Second Stage. He wasn't too comfortable in hitting Chi points. His urge to use his fists was very strong. After the sparring, Gabe practiced striking hard wood with his long fingers. He needed to toughen them up so that they really punished Chi points.
Boxing would be next. His father had taught it to Gabe when the Waktu was very little. Before he ever started to bring shame upon the family. Maybe it was due to his father that Gabe became a Berzerker. "Tsc" He grumbled reading what he already knew. Stage Two would be his start this time. "Dad, you just won't leave my head today huh?" He said to himself as he got up from his crossed legs. Stage Two consisted of learning four key attacks. The Jab, Straight, Hook and uppercut. He'd learn these with weights on his hands in order to deal excessive damage when he took them off. The giant beast walked over to the weights and examined the weighted gloves. He needed the biggest pair to fit, but it didn't seem like they had his size. "Guess I'll just use dumbbells instead." He picked up the biggest dumbbells he could find and started performing the attacks. He kept at this until his arms became way too tired to even lift themselves up. Even Gabe had his own limit or maybe it was the fact that it was Boxing and the memories it brought weakened him.

Gabe shook his head around violently trying to get the sweat off of his his fur. Perks of being a giant rabbit. "I can't stop now." The Waktu was just getting pumped up. All of the abilities he'd learned so far were so simple he'd learn them at his first go. It was time to turn up the heat a little. The only things that could really get his heart pumping were the Berzerker Class abilities. Unlike the Berzerker style, these techniques couldn't be learned by normal beings. They had to know what it meant to not only fight, but to feel alive during the fight. Gabe prepared himself for the training by shouting and slamming his chest. His energy flowing around like that of an insane mage. "AHHHHHH!!!!" He shouted as all of the energy in his body moved to his right arm causing it to swell up with power. "AHHHH!!!!!" Gabe directed a right hook towards a nearby dummy, but the moment he came into contact with the thing his arm returned to normal as the energy evaporated. "s**t!" He shouted in frustration.
Gabe needed to concentrate. Going beast mode was ok and all, but not when learning how to control a large amount of energy in one single arm. He took a much calmer approach the second time around and meditated to gather the energy. He could feel his right arm swelling again and the rampaging energy thrashing around inside. The Waktu opened his eyes showing great rage. It was time to go berzerk. Getting up he eyed a lone dummy and dashed towards it while holding his right arm with his left hand like a loaded gun. "Force Breaker!" The Ability absolutely demolished the poor dummy causing an rxplosion on impact. Even the wall behind it got stained a little. "s**t..." He mumbled feeling his arm throb in his own grasp.
Gabe wanted to go easy on his right arm so he'd learn a technique through meditation in order to empower himself before a battle. Sitting down in the same position as his "Force Breaker" meditation, Gabe concentrated on spreading out his energy throughout his entire body. It was more of a struggle than he thought not only due to the sheer amount of concentration he needed to do so, but his right arm didn't quite like the presence of energy at the moment. "Tsc" Frustrated at not even being able to meditate properly the Waktu kept on going.
During his meditation, Gabe started to think about Kumori, the man he had met earlier outside the city after he killed the Goblin Soldiers. Was it really ok to trust a man shrouded by darkness. Gabe knew he wasn't the best at character judgment and he really got thrown off by the mans display of his money in the middle of poverty. Why had the Holy Warrior called him a demon? Either way it no longer mattered. Gabe needed to get stronger. He had to leave Pronta and make his parents proud of their trouble making son and even give the Waktus a better reputation. Suddenly, his energy made a sort of mental clicking noise before transforming into a firey red energy that coated his entire body. He could feel a boost of both strength and speed. "This...This feel goooood." He announced with a grin.

Meditation was the Berzerker classes main weakness if someone asked Gabe. He was the only one of hus kind capable of performing Blood Scripts while moving a feat he considered praise worthy while his family called it disrespectful. He just assumed they were mad that they couldn't do what he did. Now meditating, there was just no way around it. Either he prepared before battle or risk doing it mid battle which would only get his a** killed. Finally he achieved his iron form which would allow him to learn two new techniques. Both requiring his Iron Form to be active. The move Catch Blade where the Berzerker used his or her new endurance to catch a sword with their bare hand. The other was named Sword Arm where the user actually made their arm into a sword of sorts.
Gabe would start with the Sword Arm technique. The description seemed easy enough to do. It required him to stretch out one of his arms. Actually, the Waktu read it wrong. The technique transformed the hand into a sharp weapon not his arm. All he had to do was straighten out his hand with his fingers kept together like in Dim Mak. "Ok. So now what..." Gabe asked himself not feeling any different. The Waktu walked over to one of the iron dummies used for more hard core training. They all seemed very durable with many scars all around to prove it. Gabe lifted his sword arm and slashed into the iron dummy several times only to find out thst he'd actually cut through their iron casing. "Woah..." He mumbled looking at his hand.

"Time to learn Ki Assault then." Gabe said to himself as he rested in the loung area. He'd been training restlessly ever since he left Kumori. From several different hand to hand stages to mastering the Berzerker class. In the corner of his eye the Waktu caught the glance of a very attractive woman bearing a holy cross on her right arm. "Hehe. The devout ones are the craziest." He said to himself before getting up from the couch. The sweat on his body normally wouldn't be very good when one picked up women, but in that situation it didn't matter. She was blonde like him with the brightest green eyes he'd ever seen. She grabbed his right index finger with her right hand and motioned towards the restroom. Chicks loved bunnies. After his little desert Gabe returned to his training. Ki Assault. He tried it out, but couldn't quite understand the concept so he went back to the scroll for help.
Ki Assault was in theory simple, but to actually perform it the user had to have a good understanding of the energy within their body. He'd perform Ki Barrage, but that technique was simply molding energy around his feet and hands to deliver stronger attacks. Ki Assault was a ranged attack that required Gabe to release the energy in the direction of his punch. Getting up, Gabe started throwing normal punches he'd learn through Boxing. The energy building in his arms was almost like a bullet getting loaded into a gun. "Ha!" He shouted as his right arm released a powerful blast of ki straight forward. The energy in his left arm receded.

Gabe rested against a wall with his long arms rested against their knees. He'd been training for so long, but it was very much worth it. Berzerkers needed to push themselves to their limit or else no actual progress was achieved. "Ok. We gotta keep moving." He said before getting up to continue his work. Gabe would go back to training the different hand-to-hand styles that he picked up during his training starting it off with Boxing which he'd known ever since he was a child. Stage Three of Boxing didn't really seem all that difficult especially since he already knew two techniques withint it. Duck and Sway were Boxing essentials and so his father taught him early on. Now all he needed to learn was Bob and Weave. That technique would come in very handy later on in his life as it was essential for dodging physical incoming attack. The Waktu asked a couple of spar assistants to help him with the ability by attacking him with a barrage of abilities. The technique was nothing to him as he seemlessly flowed past everything without a single scratch.
The next stage of Muay Thai had its own special area for training. As a matter of fact the entire damn style had its own area that Gabe never knew about when he started his training. He needed to use bamboo trees to get the nerves in his legs used to the training. He wouldn't go as far as to deaden the nerves in his legs, but maybe one day he'd go all out on the style. The Waktu casually strolled through a row of bamboo tree before deciding which one he'd choose. Then the trainining would consist of him just mindlessly striking at the tree with his legs until they started to bleed and he could no longer feel them. After that there would be a couple of flexibility exercises.
Nothing. We Just Have Big Ears.

Akiba walked out into the training area of the Iron Swords Academy, it felt very unnatural to him as he compared it to the old training grounds of the Cliff Edge Academy. The ground seemed to flat, too perfect, but Akiba decided to ignore that and pushed his unease aside. Getting back on track for what he'd come here for originally, he looked around at what resources that were at hand and noticed several bored looking, on-duty instructors with no one to train. With a shrug, Akiba gravitated towards the group and asked, "Hey, can one you of you teach me how to do more then just swing this thing around?" He asked as he drew out his blade and waved it around vaguely to emphasize his point. One of the instructors nodded with a smirk and began to explain several longsword skills to Akiba. The instructor then proceeded to gesture at a row of training dummies and said, "Have at it." So Akiba walked over to the training dummies and prodded one with the tip of his sword. It seemed to be made of some kind of soft stone, so Akiba didn't have to worry about his sword snapping into pieces whenever he strikes it. With that in mind, He started with the first skill, which would normally be used to counter attack. Thankfully the dummies had mock weapons in their hands, so in order to test out Double Slash, he made a vertical cut down into the mock weapon. Afterwards he twisted his sword-arm around so that as he stepped backwards he put his full weight into the second hit and ended up digging the blade a solid inch into the stone. Akiba yanked the sword out of the stone and stepped closer to admire his work. He guessed if he was stronger or the blade was sharper, he'd of been able to cut clean through the stone.

Zess would walk into the Training Ground area of Pronta. She figured this was the best place to find what she needed...well wanted to find. She would look around, she wasn't exactly sure what orc hunters looked like, it made her a bit upset, she frowned. She hoped they at least looked somewhat decent. Well at least that they didn't look like they were extremely poor peasants that she wouldn't want to hang out with in the first place, but it wasn't like she would have a choice. She would place her hand on her head, begin rubbing it, taking a deep breath and then shouting. "I'm looking for Orc Hunters! Anyone willing to help me!" She didn't exactly want to shout so loud in the first place, but it was absolutely necessary.
Zess would leave soon after

Akiba had spent what felt like an eternity familiarizing himself with the basics of combat. He finally sat down to rest when a courier showed up and passed on a note to him. The note informed him that he had permission receive additional gene mods on top of the Physical Revolt that was installed in him at birth. He a grin, Akiba sprang to his feet and headed off to the Hospital.

Kumori had dragged the unconscious mers into the training area, Percita right behind him as he chuckled a bit. "Can't believe you decided to eat a few Percita, that takes guts and a hard working jaw." He responded to her as he turned around and sat down at the stool as a few things rose up from the ground, an agility exercising course. "Try running this course a few times while I interrogate the mers."

Percita Kiranu Berserker - Novice Citizen Strength: 8 / Speed: 9 Energy: 225/550 Skills used: Percita walks right behind Kumori. When he brings up her having consumed the Mer, she laughs. "Oh, I only ate one, and I cooked him before I began eating. He was a bit tough, but that's what my claws are for. Built in knives." She chuckles, and looks at the course. "Yes sir. Just stop me when you're done." She begins running the course.
Kumori nodded as he waved her off, pulling a mer out before placing them into a stretching torture device, made out of solid stone. The fact that they were sitting in a ray of the sun as it heated the rocks would only make it worse as he examined the male for a bit. "Who sent you to attack our town?" He questioned the mer while Percita was off doing some random flips here and there.
