Nori asked Gerald three questions in succession.Gerald’s lips curled upward, and he said to them, “From now on, this place will be our residence. I am now the student of the dean!”Hearing this, the three were even more amazed.“Brother Gerald, are you kidding with us again? Are you really the student of the dean?” Cyril asked, looking at Gerald suspiciously.“Well, I know you won’t believe me right away. Here, let me show you something. This is the special wooden token the dean gave me. If you still don’t believe me, you can go and ask Master Ykink!”As Gerald was talking, he fished out the special wooden token Sumeru had given to him from his pocket and showed it to them.Now, Nori, Zelig, and Cyril finally believed him. No wonder Master Ykink was so respectful toward Gerald. Evidently, this was the reason behind it.“Gerald, you’re so cool! You actually become the student of the dean, plus, you get to live in such a good place!” Nori praised Gerald and looked at him with adm

However, this contest was not that simple.The academy would hold this event every year after the enrollment of new students. This was also to test the students’ true ability. It would be carried out in the form of a duel between students from the beginner to the elite classes.Soon, two days had passed.And today was the very day of the contest at Leicom Academy.Everyone in the academy gathered in the square. The beginner class sat in the east corner, the intermediate in the west corner, and the elite class in the south corner.As for Gerald, he sat beside Dean Sumeru.Seeing Gerald sitting beside Sumeru, everyone was in shock. They were curious about what his status was so much so that he was receiving such good treatment.“Fellow students, today is the annual martial arts contest of our academy after the enrollment of the new students. As always, the students from three different levels will join the contest and duel with each other!”After that, Master Ykink came forward a

Zelig immediately shone his sword to shield himself.“Cascading petals!” Lev yelled.This was the name of Lev’s move, and the sword’s shadows cascaded everywhere from the sky like flower petals, rendering Zelig unable to determine which one was the real sword.After a few seconds, Zelig’s shirt was already torn and ripped up with marks from the sword everywhere, and he seemed to be extremely battered and confused.At this moment, it was already known who had won and lost—it was obvious that Lev had won this round.“Alright, both of you can stop now. We already have a winner!”Master Ykink instantly yelled and announced the result of the battle.“Lev Bayfield from the elite class won the second round!”Although Zelig was unsettled and unwilling to admit defeat, his ability was indeed not as good as Lev’s, so he could only accept the result.“Hmph. Zelig Lear, I’m telling you, you’re going to lose to me forever, so, from now on, you’d better scram whenever you see me around the

After discovering the owner of the voice, an uproar appeared amongst the crowd again.The man who was being discussed by everyone was Ray Leighton, the best student in the elite class. His ability had reached the Seventh-soul-rank in the Sage Realm.Ray got up and walked out of the circle coldly toward the center of the square to stand before Gerald, and he pointed at Gerald icily as he said, “I, Ray Leighton, want to challenge you. If you win, I will willingly listen and follow you. If I win, you have to scram from this position of yours and be my underling!”Ray’s words were extremely arrogant with a dominant vibe.After listening to him, Gerald wasn’t angry at all. On the contrary, he thought that Ray was very interesting.Someone like Ray was direct and straightforward, and he would express his dissatisfaction outright instead of doing something dirty behind one’s back. This deserved other’s respect.“Okay, I accept!”Gerald didn’t reject him and accepted it immediately.Wi

“Could it be that Gerald will be the saint who will save our Leicom Continent?!”Upon seeing the starlight, Sumeru couldn’t help but become astonished.***Not long after, Gerald returned to the South Pavilion.“Brother Gerald!”Just as he reached the door, a familiar voice was heard from behind him.The owner of that voice was none other than Ray Leighton, the man who had fought him this afternoon.“Brother Ray, anything you need at this late hour?”When he saw that it was Ray, Gerald became puzzled as he asked, not expecting Ray to come to find him.“Hoho! Brother Gerald, I’m here to have a casual chat. Would you like to have a drink?”Ray chuckled lightly as he shook the beer bottle in his hand.Gerald smiled understandingly and nodded. “Sure. Come in, then!”After that, Gerald led Ray inside the pavilion.When they entered the pavilion, Nori and the two others were sitting inside.“Gerald, you’re back!”Seeing Gerald arrive, Nori stood up and greeted him.“Hmm? Isn’
