Chapter 591 Part 2: Ernest's duel

From MC's perspective:

After having breakfast, we started walking towards the duel arena. Though Ernest seemed confident.

But I'm having doubts in my heart. Clearly, he doesn't listen to me. If anything happens, I can only carry him to the infirmary.

Soon, we reached the arena building. Apart from us, there are quite a number of Super Elite Warriors entering the building.

While Ernest entered the office to register his name. I started walking towards the seating area.

The seating areas were separated for each faction. The Special Faction Area has less number of seats because of less number of students.

After arriving at the spot, I picked an empty seat to sit down. Looking at the empty seats around me. I frowned.

There are still warriors left in our faction apart from us. But none of them has come so far. Which shows that Carlos was incompetent in his job.

After pushing down my thoughts. I looked down. There are 5 dual platforms. The participants are yet to appear.

As long as the name is announced, they will start to appear one after another.

"Hmm," I raised my eyebrows. I feel like someone is looking at me. Then I slightly turned around my head and saw the people from the Gale Faction are looking at me.

Among them I spotted familiar faces. One of them is Vina Potkins. Fortunately, nobody knows about my real strength.

Otherwise the Super Elite Warriors would start bothering me. Then I shifted my gaze from them. Then I noticed there was one more group looking at me.

"RainWater Faction?" I said in my heart. I saw Eurice's friends are pointing fingers at me. They seemed to talking about me.

But what about their faction head? Elder Alice is not here. Then I shook my head before looking at the duel arena.

There is an hour left for the duel. Feeling bored, I started reading online articles.

Time went by,

After one hour, the duel officially starts. 5 duels taking place at the same time. Ernest is standing on the 2nd platform.

He is facing a warrior from the Gale Faction. Looking at Ernest's smile. I think that opponent is not that strong.

When I was observing the duel. I felt a malicious gaze on me. I sneered inside. Without turning sideways, I can tell that it's coming from the Flame Faction Area.

Then I slightly looked at them from the corner of my eyes. I saw Kane Patrick is looking at me. Beside him, the Flame Faction Head Franklin is also watching me.

"What's with these people?" I said in my heart.

Not long after the winner was announced.

Ernest easily defeated the opponent by using the soil attack. The Soil attack is strange. You need expertise to tackle them.

Seeing that Ernest's first hurdle was over. A faint smile appeared on my face.

But the next fixture made me frown. This time Ernest's opponent was from the Metal Faction.

The Flame Faction and Metal Faction are allies. Both the faction members have the same thoughts.

It's just that I'm not targeted by the metal faction recently.

After taking a glance at them, I turned my attention back to the ground. Ernest needs 9 more duels to win.

Then he can continue tomorrow.

Time went by,

Ernest has defeated successive opponents in a few hours. When the flame faction warrior appeared. He didn't play any tricks.

He was defeated straightforwardly by Ernest. I feel something is wrong. This shouldn't be right. This should be a nice opportunity for them to target Ernest to antagonize me.

Why are they giving up right now? Soon the last match for today was over. Ernest and other participants left the stadium.

Seeing that I started to leave. Whatever? I know Jonathan will come back soon. When he is around. There is nothing to be afraid of these people's conspiracy.

...

The Azure City:

A few hours ago,

Elder Alice is currently staying in one of the inn in the inner area. She is in a bad mood right now.?When she first came the outer area was empty. action

People had already vacated the outer area. But when she entered the inner area to investigate.

She found that the place is deteriorating as well. Whether it's Blevins' family move or not. But the Morrow Family's migration has caused panic among the people.

Later she found that the daughter of the Morrow Family head is a student of their academy. She is one of the Special Faction Warriors.

But when the dean briefed her she didn't hear all the details. Now she knows the migration process was approved by her.

In between she went back to the academy once. Then she came back to Azure City right after finishing the work.

Now the Morrow Family moved out. An unknown panic appeared among the residents here. The Blevins Family was staying low key for some reason.

From time to time she also saw the appearance of Michael Blevins outside of the Mansion. He didn't seem to go back to the academy any time soon.

Recently she has been looking for an opportunity to enter Blevins' Mansion. But the Blevins' Family Head is not an easy person.

She found that he is not stepping out of the mansion. If the person goes outside, then she will get her chance to enter inside.

But right now she is staying in the inn wasting time. Unless the dean calls back her it's impossible to return.

While she is getting frustrated..

Beep~

A sudden call broke her thoughts. The call is from none other than the dean. Seeing that she hurriedly attended the call.

"Elder Alice, I know you are not getting anything there in Azure City. So you can return to the academy right now."

"The internal competition is going on. You can postpone the mission," Dean said.

Hearing the dean's words on the call. Elder Alice sighed in relief.

"Okay, dean. I'm leaving right away," She replied with a smile.

Then they spoke for a few more minutes before ending the call.

The academy is the best place to practice. The world energy is thin here. Then she decided to leave after getting ready.

...

The following day,

After getting ready, I went to the office building. Then I reached the dean's cabin to get permission.

When I saw her I realized that the dean wasn't aware of my full conversation with the Supreme Elder. When she asked me, I revealed our conversation without hiding anything.

"What is he thinking?" Rebecca blurted out in a surprise.

Last time, I told her about the duel. But nothing about the condition.

"Why didn't you tell me that day?" Rebecca asked.

"This?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Dean, I thought the Supreme Elder might have told you," I replied in a calm tone. To be honest, I don't want to involve her.

It's clear that the old man's life is going to end sooner or later. And Jonathan won't leave him lightly.

The old man was greedy for life. He has been cooperating with outside enemies to extend his own life.

His selfish actions have jeopardized the safety of the people. If the news is exposed, the dean will face a severe backlash.

People might think she is part of the enemy's group as well.

Dean Rebecca lost in her thoughts. Clearly, she has lost the favor of the Supreme Elder. But she doesn't know why?

"You are right!"

"I couldn't able to understand the Supreme Elder's thoughts nowadays. He is not showing concern at all."

"Even he hadn't asked about the internal competition," Rebecca said with a bitter smile on her face.

Hearing that I thought it's best to warn her. If she was caught in the vortex. She couldn't be able to save herself let alone the academy.

"Dean, I think you should resign your position and focus on increasing your strength," I said.

When I uttered those words. I saw clear shock on her face.

"I was hasty," I said in my heart.

"Zack Lockwood, do you know what you are saying?" Rebecca asked. She thought Zack was overstepping his boundaries.

No academy student has spoken to her like this. Then she suddenly realizes she has been giving too much importance to Zack.

Which led him to speak like this.

"Zack, you can leave right now," Rebecca said.

"Dean? I'm sorry!"

"But I want to remind you that don't trust the Supreme Elder," After saying that I stood up from the seat.

"I know you can leave right now," Dean Rebecca said. A hint of anger can be seen in her eyes.

Creak~

I left the room.

Meanwhile,

The Giant Tower Headmaster swiftly acted. He sent his men to collect the treasure item from the Glass City.

The Glass City like the name says the architecture buildings are made up of glass. People inside the building can see the outside view clearly.

Among one of the towering buildings, a circular shaped building located at the center of the city.

The Glass building is the building structure of the auction house.
