Old Master Chris was already 80 years old. However, Rank 7 Evolved Ones had long lifespans, thus he looked like a middle-aged man even though he was already 80.Chris strode up to the podium, and the dean passed him the microphone reverently."Please, Old Master Chris."After taking the microphone, Chris stared at the thousands of students below him."Dear students, you are Confluence Base City’s future hope. I hope that all of you will work hard to cultivate and become Confluence Base City’s mainstay in the future."After his brief speech, Old Master Chris passed the microphone back to the dean.The dean took the microphone and said, "Only ten students from Confluence College will be selected to enroll at Cloudtop Academy. I will start announcing the names of students one by one now."Ten students!!!Considering how there were thousands of Confluence College students, ten spots were too few.Cloudtop Academy’s enrollment consisted of nothing more than testing Gene Grades and
Joanna joining forces with a Dark Race?The students of Confluence College were very aware of Joanna's characteristics. She was the number one genius in Confluence Base City; Joanna was a Rank 1 Evolved One with Grade S Genes. Needless to say, she had been studying at Cloudtop Academy.Joanna belonged to the Lawrence Residence. Thus, Orion, along with all the other Lawrences, was dumbfounded to hear the news. They shifted their gaze at Joanna."Joanna is one of Confluence Base City’s citizens, so you guys from Confluence Base City should give us an appropriate explanation," Walter said coldly.A discussion broke out when the students of Confluence College heard about this."I had never thought Joanna would join forces with a Dark Race. She is a disgrace to Confluence Base City.""Joanna is last year's top genius. She bears Confluence Base City's future hope. How could she do such a thing?""I think Joanna is done for it since she has joined forces with the Dark Race. Not to ment
The two admission officers from Cloudtop Academy were stunned when they saw this scene.Derick smirked and snorted at Lucas, "Are you trying to be a hero? Joanna is being accused of having joined forces with a Dark Race."Derick and Luna had never expected such an outcome whereby Lucas would still want to be a hero.However, one required tremendous ability if they were to be a hero. After all, they were going to have to face the entire Cloudtop Academy.Lucas remained calm as he let out a faint smile. Then, while the entire crowd from Confluence College was still in a daze, Lucas activated his Hundred Heavenly Steps and got up to the stage in a split second.How is this possible?Everyone in Confluence College took in a deep breath. Lucas had only taken less than a second to reach the stage; he was demonstrating such frightening speed.Derick and Luna were astonished. They had never witnessed such speed before. However, they soon managed to compose themselves as they were backed
Derick and Luna were the closest to Lucas. They were utterly petrified being faced with such a strong demonic aura."Cloudtop Academy has decided to arrest Joanna because she was found having joined forces with a Dark Race."Derick and Luna were terrified and thus planned to scare Lucas with the name of Cloudtop Academy.However, Lucas did not know what it felt like to be scared."That's… that's right. Not to mention, since you're from the Dark Race and have appeared in Confluence Base City, they will not let you go," Luna added.The affluent family members of the Confluence College had their eyes fixed on Chris. They were waiting to witness his reaction toward their words. If Chris gave the command, Lucas would not be able to leave Confluence Base City no matter how strong he was.Unfortunately, they realized that Chris' eyes were closed, and it was as though he was sleeping.The affluent family members of Confluence Base City exchange terrified looks and looked up the stage.
"Who is this Dark Race? Why is he so arrogant?!""This is so frustrating! Don't tell me this Dark Race doesn’t know he’s in Confluence Base City!""Dark Race, you'll never be able to imagine the terror of Confluence Base City. You're all alone from the Dark Race. How dare you boast around!"The thousands of students from Confluence College started to roar arrogantly at Lucas.On the other hand, the Confluence Base City martial art families were exasperated as they glared at Lucas. They would never be able to tolerate Lucas' actions of being so arrogant in Confluence College.'The weight of the words spoken by ants is nothing but the words of someone with late-stage cancer?'Even though they did not know what cancer was, they could sense that he was speaking ill of them.Derick and Luna were delighted when they saw that the students of Confluence College had started shouting again."Dark Race, what are you gonna do now?" Derick asked Lucas arrogantly.Sandy and Elise looked at
"Did the Dark Race just kill both the admission officers with his eyes?""I think… I think that Dark Race shot out two golden rays with his eyes. Consequently, both the admission officers' bodies became pierced with numerous holes.""This Dark Race is just too daring, how dare he slaughter the two admission officers of Cloudtop Academy in Confluence Base City!"The students had no idea what had happened. They only knew that Lucas had killed Derick and Luna.However, all the affluent families of Confluence Base City had seen through the truth behind the incident.Golden aura?'According to the aura colors for Genetic talent, golden is…'The thought of it made all the affluent families of Confluence Base City go pale.'SSS Gene Fighter?'Ever since the rise of Confluence Base City, the highest Genetic Talent they had seen was Grade S Gene. Grade SSS Gene was merely a legend; there were people who even said that Grade SSS Gene did not exist.However, the golden rays from Lucas'
The crowd at Confluence College had never expected that the truth was completely different from what they initially thought.The head of the Lawrence family, Orion, felt as though his heart had been stab by a knife. As the father of Joanna, since the very beginning, he had chosen not to believe in her.The rest of the Lawrence family members felt the same way too. They hated themselves for not having believed in their family member."The chaos is over, go get Me. York. It's time for us to go home," Old Master Sandford said.Jackson nodded and strolled to the stage."Mr. York, my dad's ready to go back. You…" Jackson was testing Lucas."Let's go," said Lucas.Up till that point, Lucas' stunning face was still calm as though nothing had happened.Lucas sauntered down the stage, leaving the dumbfounded crowd in Confluence College behind.…In the hall of the Sandford's, Lucas reached out to a white, jade cup that contained the best tea leaves in Confluence Base City.After taki
Cloudtop Academy had been informed about Joanna's incident. Even though Joanna had not joined forces with the Dark Race, it would be hard to persuade Cloudtop Academy to believe them."Hmm, this…"The head of the Weasley's, Zeff Weasley, shook his head. Despite having cracked his head, he had no idea as to how they should deal with the issue.Lucas’ lips curled as his stunning face put on a faint smile.Old Master Sandford caught a glimpse of his smile. He looked at Lucas and said, "Mr. York, perhaps you have a solution for it?""I won't call it a solution but if everyone present now is willing to believe in me, please hand Joanna over to me. I'll bring her to a safe place," said Lucas.Orion fell silent for a few seconds after hearing Lucas's suggestion. Afterward, he said to Lucas, "Mr. York, I believe in you."There was no other solution but this.If Joanna continued to linger in Confluence Base City, Cloudtop Academy would surely come after them.Joanna, Elise, and Sandy w
