NoSuchMethodException when trying to create ResponseSpecBuilder object

I'm trying to extend RequestSpecBuilder in Rest Assured and make it into a Singleton so I can front load things like the base uri and pass it around between Scenarios in a Serenity BDD implementation of Cucumber. The basic version (with everything else commented out, is this:

import io.restassured.builder.RequestSpecBuilder;

public class CareRequestSpecBuilder extends RequestSpecBuilder {

  private static CareRequestSpecBuilder builder;

  public CareRequestSpecBuilder() {
    super();
  }
}

I've tried it without super() as well. I've tried creating just a basic junit test in the library that creates the object and I still get the attempt to construct through Reflection and the NoSuchMethodException. That one is just a basic

import io.restassured.builder.ResponseSpecBuilder;
import io.restassured.specification.ResponseSpecification;
import org.junit.Test;

public class DebugTest {

  @Test
  public void restAssuredTest() {
    ResponseSpecification resp = new ResponseSpecBuilder().expectStatusCode(200).build();
  }
}

The exception that comes from it is:

BUG! UNCAUGHT EXCEPTION: java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles$Lookup.<init>(java.lang.Class,int)

The version if I let it go to the extend version is longer, but ultimately the same cause and process.

The constructor for RequestSpecBuilder is this:

private final ResponseSpecification spec;

public ResponseSpecBuilder() {
        spec = new ResponseSpecificationImpl(rootPath, null, getResponseParserRegistrar(), restAssuredConfig(), new LogRepository());
    }
