Bang!
Everyone erupted in a uproar once again.
“G-grade seven affinity?”
“How astonishing!”
“I think there has been only a few times when a Grade seven affinity holder appeared in Zexin city’s recruitment.”
“Doesn’t that young man seem a bit familiar somehow?”
“…”
…Above spectators’ seats, the sitting area of the academies…
Ten envoys watched as audience clamoured about. The young female envoy of the Royal academy looked to her right at the envoy from the Cloud academy and said plainly ”With that kind of talent, he qualifies to become a disciple of our royal academy. I hope when times comes to select the disciples, none of you will compete with me. Well even if you do it wouldn’t change anything.”
Every envoy frowned but didn’t say anything. They just looked at the cloud academy’s envoy.
Cloud academy’s envoy, the youngest female apart from royal academy’s envoy shook her head and said in annoyance ”Envoy Cilera, you don’t have to provoke me like this. If you have guts, you can fight me anytime you want. You are always welcome. As for the matter of that boy’s joining, i don’t give any f*ck about it.”
”You? Who do you think you are talking too? Do you think you can still defeat me, you are-” Before she could continue a calm voice interrupted her.
Green pagoda’s middle aged female envoy smiled ”I won’t have any problem if he chooses to join any academy out of his free will. And how about we don’t lose the prestige of an envoy by fighting here?”
Cloud academy’s envoy nodded and focused on the arena, completely ignoring Cilera, royal academy’s envoy. Cilera fumed but didn’t say anything after noticing that Green pagoda’s envoy was looking at her with a smile, she shivered and also focused on the arena.
…
After hearing his result, Vincent turned around and walked back to his seat. He once again passed by Dalton without even glancing at him, making Dalton gnash his teeth. Vincent’s demeanour was calm and he didn’t even seemed happy or sad after knowing his result.
Dalton also returned to his seat beside Miss Flavia. When he returned, she didn’t say anything and continued looking towards arena however, her gaze wasn’t focused. She was lost in her thoughts but no one knew what she was thinking.
Dalton also didn’t say anything because his mood was soured due to losing his glory to Vincent and how he was treated as air by him. He felt that Vincent was looking down on him and this made him furious.
He then remembered that a few days ago, he was also angry just like now because some pest dared to flirt with ‘his’ woman. Remembering this he subconsciously looked toward Flavia. Seeing goddess-like appearance, he felt his anger subside considerably.
However, this also made his conviction of making her his woman. He suppressed his raging emotions and opened his mouth to start a conversation, when she suddenly stood up and walked toward the arena without saying anything.
Many were still getting tested; however, when she stepped onto the arena, everyone’s eyes were attracted to her for a moment. Many talked about her. Most of the young men and even some old men gawked at her.
Flavia did seem to care about the attention she was getting. She walked up to a crystal as her long golden hair swayed elegantly in the wind. There were still many people in line but they gave way to her.
She reached out her hand and gently touched the crystal, and made the mana whirl inside. With an inaudible bang, an invisible mana wave rippled and travelled five inches before dissipating. She looked at the supervisor waiting his response.
“Grade five mana affinity. Pass!”
Supervisor announced her result. Flavia couldn’t help but feel dejected, seeing that her affinity lacked compared to Dalton’s. Although she ready knew it, she still hoped that it would be higher than Dalton’s somehow so that she would have more importance placed on her She sighed, seemingly accepting her fate as she walked back to her seating area.
Dalton sneered in his heart. ‘Did you think you could surpass my talent? Hehe, now you can only give in and become my woman’ He licked his lips in anticipation.
Flavia noticed his piercing gaze and felt disgusted. Dalton, although always had that crazed look for her in his eyes, she used to think that it was because he loved her. However, his eyes were burning with naked lust right now.
…
Noticing that most of the people had been tested, Max stood up. “Neer, let’s go. It’s our turn now.”
Neer nodded and followed. He wanted to test his affinity because he didn’t know what grade affinity he had. trials moreover he had to go on the arena to showcase his dual element.
When They arrived at the edge of the arena. Crowd’s attention was shifted to Max for obvious reasons. Flavia and Dalton also noticed them. Dalton’s eyes burned with anger seeing him.
‘I didn’t expect you to appear before me again. I was being kind by not investigating you but now you are here, I’ll make sure you regret being so bold.’ A cruel look flashed across his face.
On the trial ground, Max told Neer to go first. Need walked up to the crystal ball with confident steps; however, as he seemed very ordinary, none took note of him.
He bowed to the supervisors slightly and placed his hand on the crystal orb, stimulating the mana inside.
The two supervisors wore surprised looks. Before one of them announced “Grade seven mana affinity. Pass!”
In the seating area, Vincent looked at Neer and mumbled “Finally someone worthy to be my rival.”
After hearing the announcement, audience was also very surprised.
“Huh? This normal looking guy has grade seven affinity.”
“Two grade seven affinity holder has appeared today. I’ve to join the same academy as them.”
“But doesn’t he look as if he is a commoner? How can he have such amazing talent?”
“You narrow-minded noble. Who said that we commoners don’t have any genius amongst us.”
“…”
“Hahaha, one more grade seven genius. He also qualifies to join our Royal academy.” Cilera laughed.
But this time, every envoy looked at Neer. Their eyes showing that they wouldn’t back down even if they had to go against the Royal Academy. Of there was an exception, the cloud academies envoy. She didn’t reach much and simply watched everything in silence. As if she didn’t care about it.
On the Arena elder Zhan also looked at Neer and thought, ‘It would be best if we can get one of them to join our Green pagoda.’
Need wasn’t use to having so many eyes focused on him. He flustered. However, he didn’t forget what he had to do and bowed toward the Elder Zhan.
“Elder Zhan, I’ve a small request.”
