The audience quietened down. They wanted to know what this genius would request for?
“Oh, tell me little guy. What is it?” Elder Zhan smiled? If it were someone else, he definitely wouldn’t have entertained them. However, he wanted to leave a good impression on Neer so that he would consider joining their Green pagoda.
“Elder Zhan, respected envoys, I won’t be taking part in subsequent tests.” Neer bowed toward envoys and said.
Before elder Zhan could ask why he continued, ”As you can see, I’m just a commoner who didn’t even have enough money to enter the city. A few years back, I bought a third level bronze cultivation technique. By diligently cultivating, I was able to become a one-star mage. However, I don’t have the ability to fight someone in the same realm as me due to the lack of resources, guidance and proper training. But despite knowing that I came here and didn’t even know that my mana affinity was such a high grade, but even so, I was confident of being selected by envoys.”
Envoys frowned. If he didn’t know about his outstanding affinity, why was he so sure. In the audience, that chubby young master was too stunned to speak. If he knew this guy who begged for a few silver coins in exchange for becoming his servant had this kind of talent, he wouldn’t act the same way he acted. However, his words reminded him that he indeed said that he would be able to join any academy.
‘This guy must have something other to rely on if he is saying this in front of envoys. Damn it. I should have given him money and made him indebted to me.’ He slapped the armrest of the chair in frustration.
”And why were you so confident?” Elder Zhan asked, his heart racing. He thought of a possibility, and if it were true, he would indeed be selected by envoys.
Shua~
Neer didn’t respond and raised his right hand in front of him. A globe of water formed above his palm.
‘So he has awakened his element. But it isn’t enough to join any academy you want without passing the tests.’ Elder Zhan shook his head, a bit disappointed. There were many disciples in there academy with their elements awakened so it wasn’t worth much.
However, in the next moment, he stared at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
Neer threw the water globe in the air, but it didn’t fall to the ground. Looking under the water globe, he could see a black hand holding the ball. This black hand came out of the water globe’s shadow. What did it mean? It meant that he also could control shadows.
”Dual elemental mage.” Elder Zhan exclaimed in surprise. Although he guessed that this could be a possibility, he wasn’t too hopeful.
”What? a dual element?”
“What’s happening today? First, there was a grade seven affinity holder and now a dual Elementalist with a grade seven affinity. Is it still only a regional recruitment?” A scholar looking middle-aged man exclaimed.
A peal of loud laughter resounded from the envoy’s sitting area “Haha, nice boy. It’s fine if you don’t want to continue taking part in further tests. You are welcome to our white sea academy. We are most powerful in regards to the water element.” It was one of the four male envoys from White sea academy, ranked fifth on the academy ranking list of the kingdom.
“You are welcome to join our Adhara academy, ranked eighth, if you want to become adept at using your shadow element. You will make you a core disciple right away.” A middle-aged woman who seemed to be surrounded by darkness offered just after fith ranked envoy stopped.
“You? There is no need to join them. Our academy will provide everything you may need to break past the four-star realm. Join our Blue-star sect, ranked third.” A domineering voice sounded that drowned the previous two. It was another middle-aged man.
”Little guy, We will also provide that. join our sixth-ranked academy.”
“…”
People watched as those high and mighty figures competed against each other and urged Neer to join their academies. Some wished they were in his place, while some became jealous, and those who were confident of being able to be selected didn’t react much; however, they also felt that this commoner’s luck was really good.
However, the chubby young master didn’t feel jealous or admiration of his talent. He felt regret and fear. After how he wanted to kick him when Neer needed the help, he feared that he would not forget and want to pay back the humiliation. He was so anxious that he started sweating profusely.
Elder Zhan glanced toward the envoy’s sitting area. After he saw the envoy of the green pagoda nodding, he walked toward Neer and patted his shoulder. “Young man, your talent is outstanding, and you’ve also awakened two elements. I, elder Zhan of Green pagoda, invite you on behalf of our academy’s envoy. How about you join us? We will make sure that you receive proper guidance and resources.”
Every envoy looked toward the middle-aged envoy of Green pagoda with anger; however, none dared to say anything. She calmly smiled at them and said, “As you know, I’m old and can’t shout like you young ones. So I had elder Zhan speak on my behalf.”
Everyone almost puked in anger hearing her excuse. Even cloud academy’s young envoy twisted her mesmerising lips. This old woman was really something.
Cilera, royal academy’s envoy, sneered. She then looked towards the arena and said, her voice deafening to ears, “I, the envoy of the strongest academy of Green leaf kingdom also invite you to join our Academy. You will receive better than whatever these lower-ranking academies promised.” One could see her naked disdain for other academies which she didn’t even bother to hide.
After saying this, she glanced at the old woman of the Green pagoda arrogantly; however, one could notice the fear she felt toward this woman. Then she glanced at cloud academy’s envoy and asked sarcastically, “Each envoy here has welcomed him to join their Academy. Why aren’t you asking him to join your legendary Cloud academy?”
The cloud academy’s envoy completely ignored her. Her gaze focused on Max, standing at the edge of the Arena with a calm expression. She had noticed that Neer had followed him here and almost acted as if he was his servant. However, Max didn’t even flinch when every Academy asked Neer to join him.
She found it strange. If there were anyone else in his place, they would at least announce that Neer was their subordinate and use him as leverage to enter the best ranking Academy. She muttered under her breath, “Interesting!”
