The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1195
Five days later, candidates could be seen playing around the lake. The temporary accommodations prepared by Novemton headquarters were filled to the brim. Meanwhile, the hotels near Lake Solunar, temporarily reserved to receive candidates, were closed to outsiders.The time of the pep rally approached. The candidates gathered in groups and enjoyed themselves. The outlands learned of this spectacular scene and it got onto the news. The whole world now knew about the legate selection, and it shook everyone.At least one soldier from Wyvern Peak was stationed per meter to protect the candidates. These people would soon be accepted into Wyvern Peak as elites, with one of them becoming the new legate. Soldiers had also been stationed inside the hotels, patrolling every nook and cranny, even the washrooms. ***Juno, Elize, Felicia, and Penny were having fun at a drawbridge while waiting for the rally to begin. They seemed rather calm since they could see a lot of women participating i

"I'm Juno Byrd." The young girl shook their hands and said, "Hey, everyone. My name's Sage Hall. It's a pleasure to meet you all.""Sage?""Are you here to participate in the rally too?" Elize asked.Sage nodded and realized their boat had already reached the center of the lake. "I've also signed up for the selection. I only just arrived since I live quite far away. Would you guys like to be friends?"Felicia said, "Of course! Which school are you from? We're all from Azure Creek. We've never seen you before.""I'm from Southeastrive. I'm the only one of my year, so I don't have anyone here," Sage replied. "I see." Penny then asked, "You seem quite strong. Are you aiming to become the legate?""I thought about that, but there are so many other strong candidates this year. Still, I’ll do my best.""Wow! That's a huge ambition!” Elize exclaimed. The candidates present were not there to become legate. They knew they were not strong enough to take up the role. They simply wa

The girls returned to their hotel after a while.More candidates arrived one after another as the day of the rally approached. ***On the night before the rally, Adrian was sitting in his office, reading through the profiles of all candidates to understand each and every one of them.Raquel walked in and sat opposite him. "The rally takes place tomorrow. Do you need me to make any further arrangements?" Adrian looked up at her. "How's your relationship going? Will I be receiving your wedding invitation anytime soon?"Raquel was stunned for a moment before rolling her eyes. "Can you please focus here?"Adrian smiled. "Are all the candidates present? Is there anyone absent?""Majority of them are here. There are some who backed out at the last minute.""Really? Why?""They retracted their registration because their families are against the idea of them participating."This was understandable since many misunderstand what Wyvern Peak was all about.Adrian nodded. "We should

The emcee stood on the podium and said, "Dear candidates, you have all come from various corners of the country to embark on your dream. To find a place you can spread your wings and fly up high. War Legate Draco is currently backstage, preparing himself as we speak. In the meantime, I shall brief you on today's schedule. “First, War Legate Draco will give his speech, where we’ll learn more about Wyvern Peak's history. This will build up its heroic image in our hearts. The second part will be a Q&A session. You will have two hours to ask whatever you’d like to ask, and they’ll all be answered by War Legate Draco. Thirdly, War Legate Draco will be personally handing out badges of honor. Keep it close as you’ll be needing it later."After the emcee was done with the briefing, she announced, "War Legate Draco has arranged a performance for you before the speech takes place. With that, I'd like to invite Wyvern Peak's ten battle warriors on stage for their spectacular performance!"The

Everyone held their breaths and watched him as drones sent by the media recorded the whole scene. With solemn expressions, the candidates waited for Adrian to speak. He was meticulously reading through the profiles on the table. This went on for around ten minutes before he finally looked toward the candidates, who were all sitting ramrod straight."What's the matter? Why do you guys look so serious? Are you guys scared of me or something?""Hahaha!" The hall filled with laughter, instantly releasing the tension in the air. No one had expected War Legate Draco to start his speech this way. Everyone then quieted down.Still holding the files in his hand, he said, "I hold information about every single one of you. Would you believe me if I said that I've memorized it all?"The candidates exchanged looks. They were capable of memorizing a textbook after reading it through once, but none of them thought it was possible to memorize thousands upon thousands of profiles, including all t
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1200
The candidates were shocked. The atmosphere was originally cold and chilling, but it now took a huge turn. None of them expected Adrian to interact with them like this. After Reina sat down, another young man stood up and asked, "What about me, sir?""Linden Nox, nineteen, correct? Your parents passed away when you were little, leaving your elder sister, Diana, to raise you. Your greatest dream is to give your sister a good life, which is why your instructor gave you the codename Skywing, correct? You hope to spread your wings and soar through the sky."Linden nodded.Adrian was now two for two. He smiled and gestured for Linden to sit. "Each and every one of you has your own story and life experiences. After reading your profiles, I thought about how you're all here with your own dreams. You wish to live extraordinary lives and vanquish evil. You have a fire inside of you that makes you mature sooner than others. I'm glad to see that.” Everyone listened quietly as War Legate Dr
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1201
The candidates listened in silence. They understood that Adrian was explaining to them what honor, mission, and responsibility were. His words were filled with endless hopes for the candidates, and they knew he wanted them to become as fearless as Daniel.He wanted them to become heroes—soldiers who accomplish their missions. Adrian looked toward the sea of candidates. He saw their blood boil after listening to his speech. They were moved, excited, and ready to leap into action. "One of you will become the new legate and lead Wyvern Peak. I don't care who this person is. All I want is for them to remember our motto regardless if they’re a man or woman, rich or poor. The moment you become the legate, you're no longer yourself anymore, but a soldier, a superior, a leader, and a strategist. Whatever happens in the future, I want you to lead your team fearlessly and with all your might against our enemies."Upon receiving the War Legate Medal, it will be the highest honor of your lif
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 1202
“And lastly, let's all put aside the formalities. If you have any questions about Wyvern Peak or the country, feel free to ask. I will answer all your questions."Sage raised her hand.Adrian saw this and asked, "What's your question, Sage?"She stood up. "Sir, I'm one of the candidates from a very poor family. I'd like to ask if you meant what you said, that our family backgrounds don't matter in this selection. Are there no hidden rules?"Sage's question caught the attention of many others born into poverty. Adrian sat upright and smiled. "Have you read the selection's rules, Sage?""I have, and I've memorized them all. I’m aware that I'm from a poor family and am worried it will affect my results. All I want is a fair competition with no hidden rules and no bias towards the rich.""I believe many of you wish me to assure you of this question. So, I promise on my honor as a legate that the rules of this selection are exactly as what you've read. We aren't just looking for som

The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4813
At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4812
The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4809
Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co
The Return of the War Legate Chapter 4808
Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

"What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
