Arcturus talked with Albus and Kieran about Aiden's performance while they waited. When the freshman returned, the sophomores were busy stretching. Arcturus looked at Aiden, and spoke.

"Aiden, you're teaming up with Albus and Kerry to spar with me. We'll be using the mats since it's easier to use our full range of techniques on a flat surface. Let them go first and watch, circle around a bit, then jump in when you think you've got it. Albus and Kerry will let us know when they're about to break out their Semblances.", he said. Aiden nodded in understanding, then the four of them got into position. Albus and Keiran charged Arcturus. The three of them traded blows, striking explosively and flowing into and around each other's movements. Once Aiden thought he had the gist of their fighting patterns down, he joined in. Despite being outnumbered, Arcturus wasn't just holding his ground, he was winning, subjecting his opponents to hard-hitting combos as he flowed effortlessly between attack, defense, and evasion. After several minutes of this, Albus called for Aiden to get back. Arcturus turned around, only to catch one of Keiran's flashbang-like Will-O-Wisps in the face as Albus hooks his knee and tripped him onto his back. Reeling, Arcturus launched himself into the air to get away with a Pulsar glyph, only for Albus to use his own Semblance to slam him back into the ground, and back up into Kieran's side kick before causing him to fly off into the opposite direction and slam back into the ground again. Aiden was shocked into watching as the other two gave him a moment to recover. Disoriented from Keiran's flash-bang and Albus' brutal combo, Arcturus got into a crouch and shook his head, before manifesting his golden Aura and discharging multiple Pulsar glyphs around his opponents to knock them around, buying time for a charge. Arcturus held nothing back, using the glyphs to bounce around like a pinball and keep his opponents off balance as he went on the offense. Aiden had to simply tank the assault as Kieran and Albus, used to his blitzkrieg methods, countered the best they could. After a couple of minutes of this, Arcturus retreated and called another halt. He sat down and took his helmet off, wiping the sweat off his face with a napkin he retrieved from one of his tactical jacket's pouches.
