From MC's perspective:
Time passed,
I ended my cultivation in the evening. Fortunately, I was able to fill up the dantian with the purple essence.
Right after, the male warrior came and brought me down to the foot of the mountain. Then we entered the black aircraft.
In the cabin, I began to take a rest. The male warrior went somewhere. Shortly after, the aircraft took off.
Several hours later,
The black aircraft enters the academy space. Slowly, the aircraft reaches the transit facility and descends. When the aircraft touched the ground.
I stood up from the seat and walked out of the aircraft. I turned around to look for the guardians. But they are nowhere to see.
"Gone," A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes.
After pushing down these thoughts, I started to head back to my dorm room.
Meanwhile, the guardians are observing Zack from the shadows. Because of the dean's order they can't reveal their identity to Zack.
When Zack disappeared from the spot. They immediately went to see the dean.
A few minutes later,
I came back to my dorm room. It's going to be night time soon. So I don't plan on doing other work. Suddenly, I thought about Laverne Morrow.
I wonder what she is doing right now? I hope their family would accept the dean's arrangement. Otherwise, it's impossible to go against the Academy rules.
At this moment, I couldn't help but remember Jonathan's words. He told me that the supreme elder of this academy is behaving suspiciously.
He had warned me about the supreme elder. I hope Laverne's problem will be solved soon.
Then after pushing down these thoughts, I went to take a shower.
The following day,
After getting out of the bed, I started doing my morning routine. Then I entered the training room several minutes later.
My dantian was full of purple essence. But still there is room for storing the healing essence.
I sat down cross-legged on the platform. Then I started to run the wooden scripture. I plan to store a small amount of healing essence for emergency use.
Since I have decided to go to the monster zone today.
Slowly, I started to absorb the green essence around me. But they are small in quantity. It would take some time to absorb them all.
Then I started to focus and began to absorb these deep green energies from the surroundings.
When the energy entered my body. I guided the energy according to the cultivation method. The energies started to flow through my veins.
After circulation, the healing energy enters the dantian and begins to settle inside. Slowly, the small amount of healing essence gathered in the middle.
Seeing that I continued to repeat the process.
After a few hours, I opened my eyes. Then I checked the dantian area. Seeing the two types of energies, my mouth curved into arcs.
Then I stood up and walked out of the training room.
One hour later,
I appeared before the dining hall. As usual Ernest was waiting for me. There was one missing person. But she has gone back to her home.
"Ernest, what is she doing?"
"Is she alright?" I asked.
Ernest noticed the appearance of Zack. So he immediately smiled in response. After hearing the question, he replied,"Well, her family was glad that the dean can help in this situation."
A quick gleam flashes in my eyes.
I asked back,"So, they are moving out?"
"Well, I'm not sure about this. Laverne's father has something else on his mind. He didn't want to take the entire family to some other place," Ernest replied.
Seeing that Zack is frowning, he added,"Don't worry, if there is any trouble she will ask for help."
I nodded at him before we walked into the dining hall. Suddenly, I thought of an annoying person.
Looking at Ernest, I asked," What happened to Michael?"
"Did he cause any problems for you?"
Ernest shook his head before saying,"I was in my room most of the time. So he couldn't have contacted me."
By that time, we had already reached the food counter. After receiving the food plate, we found a place to sit down.
"Any plans today?" Ernest asked.
"Let's go to the monster zone today. I'm eager to fight," I replied.
"Alright, I want to sharpen my skills as well. Since Michael was back. We will fight sooner or later," Ernest added.
I sighed inwardly. Because I agree with his words. Michael doesn't seem to give up. There is bound to be some clashes ahead.
Then we continued to eat.
Several minutes later,
After having breakfast, we walked out of the place. Then we headed straight towards the Transportation Tower.
On the way, we saw many warriors going to the same place.
"Have you heard about the year end competition?" Ernest asked.
Hearing that my eyes flickered. I looked at him and replied,"I know, because the dean wants me to perform well."
Ernest was surprised by my answer. He uttered,"No wonder. The dean was showing such attention."
"If it's you, then I can understand. In the Elite level, only you can win duels for us," He added further.
"Are you going to participate?" I asked back.
Ernest replied,"Not all of us can participate. I believe there will be a competition to select the representatives."
"Apart from a few selective people, like you. Rest of us have to go through this process."
I nodded my head in understanding. "So, when is it going to happen?" I asked back.
We have already reached the Transportation Tower.
"I think there will be a circular next week. One of the flame faction warriors shared the news with me."
"The Flame Faction Head ordered them to improve their strength. I believe their goal is to become representative," Ernest said with a solemn tone.
But I couldn't help but let out a chuckle. The Flame Faction Head Franklin is the Vice-dean of the academy.
But he seems to care more about the Flame Faction. Then shaking my head, I walked up to the circular platform.
"Which one to choose?" Ernest asked.
"Select the place of Class-5 Monsters," I replied. I can fight across ranks. But I don't know about Ernest.
So it would be risky if we choose the Class-6 Monsters area.
Ernest selected the server for the transfer.
The lights on the platform lit up. Right after the activation, we disappeared from the spot.
When I opened my eyes. I found myself standing in an open field. There is dense green vegetation and shade trees here and there.
But most of the landmass is vast open fields.
"At least we are not in the dense forest. This place is good for fighting," Ernest commented.
"Well, it depends on the monster," I replied back.
Then we began to look around for the monsters.
Soon, we found the deadly monster ahead of us.
"Purple Black Scorpion," Ernest let out a cry.
"What?" A trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes. This is supposed to be the name of Class-6 Monster.
Looks like we found a monster close to breakthrough.
The Purple Black Scorpion is a Peak Stage Class-6 Monster. It already picked up the signal of prey.
The giant body made a sudden turn.
Seeing that I took out the black sword from the storage ring and held it in my hand.
Ernest was ready to face the monster as well.
Suddenly, the monster made an attack by using its dead tail.
"It's coming to you," Ernest warned me as he prepared to make an attack.
My eyes fixed on the stinger. One attack from the stinger can injure me deeply.
Seeing that stinger was a few distance away from me. I raised my black sword to block it.
Clang~
The black blade collides with the stinger. The impact pushed me a few steps backward.
At the same time, its body was attacked by the soil element. Ernest created a small boulder by using the soil element.
Then he bombarded the monster's body.
The purple black scorpion wailed in pain. It raises both of its claws to attack Ernest.
Seeing that Ernest manages to attract the attention of the monster.
I raised my sword and began to charge the sword with the purple essence. In a blink of an eye, the black blade flickered with purple glint.
"Sword Divide"
I swung my sword against the monster. The next moment, a purple beam discharged from the sword.
The lightning beam reaches the target in a blink of an eye. It directly hits the monster's body.
Boom~
A terrible sound reverberated throughout the area.
The monster's hard skin began to crumble. The lightning beam attack managed to leave behind a scar.
Cry~
The Purple Black Scorpion lets out a ugly cry. The monster forgot about Ernest Kirk for a moment. It suddenly dashes toward me.
Seeing that I raised my sword again. When the monster came closer towards me. The purple arcs covered my legs and I escaped from the spot by using the lightning phantom technique.
Swish~
The monster stinger hits the empty place. On the other hand, Ernest was surprised by seeing Zack's lightning element.
