Smack!Mya gave Reena a slap the moment the latter spoke. Reena was left dumbfounded, and the same went for Wesley. "I'm only going to say this one more time, so stop testing my patience. Shut your mouth until War Legate Draco speaks to you.” Mya sounded chillingly cold when she spoke.Reena started crying out, "She hit me! Wyvern Peak is a bunch of bullies who lay their hands on old and harmless citizens! Somebody, help me! Help me! They're going to kill me!" She sat on the floor and yelled at the top of her lungs, intending to attract a crowd. Mya said upon realizing what Reena was up to, "No one will come no matter how loud you scream. The most powerful person in Novemton is standing right here. It’s within our rights to execute you for simply disobeying our orders. Don't say I didn't warn you."Reena trembled when she heard this menacing warning. Everyone here worked for Wyvern Peak, so it was impossible for anyone to come to her aid no matter how much she yelled. Fear gripp

"No matter.” Adrian gestured toward Anna. "You read it then. Remember that you're no longer a child, so don't let a bad decision ruin your life forever."Anna read out the words in the file, "Victor Hasting. Healthy with no recorded illnesses, heart conditions, contagious viruses, or chronic diseases. No scars were found, excelled in the physical test, and no inherent deficiencies or conditions were detected. Pass."After she finished reading, Anna stared at Adrian, who turned toward Reena. "So, tell me, Mdm. Reena. Is the profile in my hands wrong, or did you and your husband give us false information? If the profile is wrong, the person who prepared it will be executed after this is over. However, if you two are the ones who gave us false information, it would indicate that you two are hiding something. I wonder which it is?"The couple panicked and were unable to find the words to say.Adrian, having no plans to let them explain themselves, said, "I've asked Southrive headquarte

Roland was the person in charge of Southrive's Internal Affairs. Following Crystal’s ascension, he retired to his hometown after being fired. And Wayne was his subordinate, who was hired by Novemton's Battle Warrior Department for some reason. The cameras turned toward them as they walked in with their heads lowered. Neither of them dared to show their faces to the cameras. "Danny Walker, Vera Stiles, and Connie Walker have arrived." Following the announcement, a couple in their fifties and a young man with thick stubble and a crutch walked in. The young man was Kieran’s brother and the couple were his parents. Following their entrance, Reena, Wesley, and Anna were brought in as well. Connie and Anna looked to the floor after quickly glancing at one another.When everyone was seated, Adrian said, "Kieran Walker and Victor Hasting's fight from last night garnered the attention of many. Wyvern Peak's legate selection is an important event in which only the most elite students are

Wayne took a deep breath, trembling as he replied, "V-Victor's exam results were all falsified. Reena and Wesley paid off someone in the school to change his results.""Is that so? And how are you involved?" Adrian asked. "Wesley and Reena said their son wanted to experience what being in Wyvern Peak was like and wished to participate in the selection. That's why they sought me, and I…""You approved his application for them, correct?" "Y-Yes…"Crash!Adrian grabbed a chair and hurled it at Wayne the moment he heard those words."Argh!" Wayne screamed in agony and collapsed to the floor as blood trickled down his face. Blazing with anger, Adrian boomed, "How dare you make a mockery of Wyvern Peak's rules! You have disrespected me in every way. If death is what you seek, then death I shall give you. Mya!" "Yes, sir!" Mya responded. The next moment, she was standing before Wayne.Splatter!!!Wayne's head was severed from his neck, leaving everyone at the scene stunned. "

Finally, Adrian walked out from backstage and sat at a round table. Smiling, he said, "My apologies for making you wait. I was taking care of last night's fight.”The hall burst into laughter, while Adrian continued, "You're all probably curious about what happened, but I can tell you now that it's no big deal. You'll find out what happened later, so I won't say anything about it. However, I will say this one thing. I remember every single one of you sitting here, so I'm watching every move you make."The candidates laughed once more. After gesturing for them to quiet down, he said, "Let's get back to business. To be honest, I'm very happy with your exam results. More than two thousand of you have surpassed me, not once, but three times over. More than eight hundred of you scored higher marks than I did in the past by eight times." "Oh wow!" Seeing how surprised the candidates looked, Adrian smiled and said, "Why are you all wowing? Isn't this something worth celebrating?""Of
