Chapter 792
In a private room of a restaurant outside the academy, the genius of Cla.s.s 2 of the Heroes ‘Club, Gael, had ordered three large tables, all of which were food cooked from exotic beast meat and Origin plants.
Compared to the value of credits, Origin Crystals were much less valuable in their eyes. Every genius had at least a few hundred thousand Origin Crystals in their pockets, and it was more than enough for them to eat a few good meals.
Gael was very influential.
In Hero City, he was also a genius second only to Victor and Qiao. His name was very famous, and his father was also a Second Rank Transcendent. He was one of the top ten executives in the Heroes ‘Club.
However, when he arrived at the World Tree Academy, he was unexpectedly a.s.signed to Cla.s.s 2.
This was a humiliation!
“Tomorrow’s end of the month a.s.sessment, I will definitely let the academy understand the consequences of underestimating the person himself!”
“Big brother is right. I have inquired about it. The end of the month a.s.sessment is a challenge mode. Every student can freely challenge the students of the same cla.s.s or higher cla.s.s. Big brother only needs to defeat any student of Cla.s.s 1 to be promoted. Moreover, the winner can continue to challenge… Oh, it seems that there are at most three chances of failure, but big brother definitely does not need it.”
Victor listened quietly, feeling a little strange.
Where did you get the confidence?
Even he was barely confident in staying in cla.s.s one.
It couldn’t be that he didn’t know the strength of the other students, right?
After thinking for a bit, Victor felt that the possibility was very high.
Thinking about himself, he did not have any thoughts of gathering information about other students. If he had not been abused in the Heavenly Stairs battle, he would not have known that all of his cla.s.smates were experts who acted like pigs and tigers.
Among the 43-47 five people, four of them were in the same cla.s.s. Victor did not know their names at first, but he remembered their appearances and auras.
These people, even if Gael’s strength had doubled after coming to the World Tree Academy, he could not be his opponent.
Werder took a look from the side, and learned that Gael had been practicing most of the time. He had surpa.s.sed the newly promoted Transcendence, and learned two new spells—most of the credits were spent on spell learning.
But…
That was all.
Gael didn’t care about Werder’s several hints. According to the population ratio, the Heroes ‘Club had more people than Tree Shade City. He was also a genius in the top five. Even if Tree Shade City had a lot of experts, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to rank in the top ten or top twenty, right?
Gael had said several times that he would have to break through at least five students of Cla.s.s One tomorrow.
Victor opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not say anything.
The next day,
Victor logged into the ‘spiritual s.p.a.ce – world tree academy area’. Unlike the empty square before, there were at least hundreds of people at this time.
It was said that he had used the mirror s.p.a.ce technique, and only the students of the Genius cla.s.s could be seen here.
A vice-princ.i.p.al used his authority to turn the square into a huge arena. There were ten arenas in the arena, and there was a high platform in front of it.
The vice-princ.i.p.al, who looked like a middle-aged man, walked onto the high platform and spent half an hour speaking a few words.
Soon after, it was time for the challenge segment.
“I can’t wait any longer.” Gael twisted his neck, his bones cracking.
Birds of the same feather flock together.
The original students of the World Tree Academy gathered in a certain area with cla.s.s as their unit, and their cla.s.ses and names were also considerately marked on the top of their heads, making it convenient for the students who did not know others – not just exchange students, but there were also many closed door training maniacs among the original students of the World Tree Academy. In the past few years of school, there were many students who had not seen each other many times.
Before the battle, Gael had specially observed them.
He didn’t know many students, but he wasn’t a fool.
Those who were surrounded by stars, proud and aloof, exuding an unapproachable aura, the eyes of the others were filled with reverence… Those were definitely the most difficult experts to provoke.
He had no intention of challenging these people, unless it was effortless for him to defeat the students of Genius Cla.s.s One.
But it was obviously impossible.
Although Gael was confident, he did not dare to underestimate the geniuses of Tree Shade City.
With my level, I’m probably just above average in cla.s.s one.
At this time, almost everyone was observing and waiting, and no one made the lead.
Gael aimed at a girl who did not look very confident and stepped out of the crowd. “Cla.s.s two, Gael, challenge this student.”
After a few seconds, the girl finally reacted with a “ah” sound, very surprised.
The two were sent to the arena.
Gael was tall and st.u.r.dy, his imposing manner surpa.s.sed the girl’s head. He saw the girl hurriedly take out her long sword, and his heart stabilized.
In the air above the arena, the 10 seconds countdown had returned to zero.
Gael maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and did not make the first move.
Suddenly,
His hair stood on end, and a chill rose from the soles of his feet to the sky.
Danger!
He immediately used a high-level footwork technique, leaving behind seven afterimages on the stage. His figure appeared in another position, and his arm guard transformed into a divine weapon shield, blocking in front of him.
But he was still a step too slow.
“I…”
He lowered his head and stared blankly at his chest that had been pierced. Only then did the pain come.
On the other side, the girl who wasn’t too confident was also a surprised sub-child.
It seemed that she was saying why her opponent was so weak?
“Pu –“
Gael spat out a mouthful of blood. His figure turned into light particles and appeared under the field. The wound was healed, but he still hadn’t come back to his senses.
What on earth happened?
Victor came over and patted him on the shoulder sympathetically. “The geniuses of Tree Shade City are not to be trifled with. It’s better to be careful. If all three chances of challenge are used up…”
“No, it must be that I chose the wrong target!”
Gael seemed to be in a trance, his gaze constantly searching before finally landing on a young man with an ordinary appearance and an average aura.
“I challenge you.”
The two figures appeared on a stage, and the aura of the young man gradually rose, rising, and rising.
A spear thrust out.
Gael, down.
“This is not scientific, nor is it extraordinary!”
“How could this be!”
The other Heroes ‘Club exchange students were also stunned. When Gael was in Hero City, he had never been defeated except for Victor and Joe. Moreover, even the two big shots, Victor and Joe, did not have the ability to kill Gael in an instant, right?
Definitely,
It must be bad luck!
He had chosen those top geniuses!
Gael was a little regretful that he hadn’t asked for information first.
But now, he had no choice but to ride a tiger.
Thinking back to last night when he had made a solemn vow and wanted to defeat at least five geniuses from cla.s.s one, his face became a little hot.
The other exchange students of the Heroes ‘Club all tacitly changed the topic, not daring to continue to sprinkle blood on Gael’s wound.
But how could the geniuses from other holy lands let go of this good opportunity?
White Bear Winter Fort, Europe’s Holy See, and other geniuses pretended to walk over to offer their condolences.
What do you mean don’t be discouraged? After all, strength can’t compare to it.
What do you mean by too careless? Otherwise, I can definitely… hold on for another 0.01 seconds.
Gael was so angry that he was smoking.
“No, I will definitely win the next match.”
His eyes were constantly observing. At this time, there were other students challenging, but most of them were from the third, fourth, and fifth cla.s.ses.
Gael’s brain was constantly a.n.a.lyzing and operating at high speed.
From the social relationships of the students in the first cla.s.s, conversations, eyes, and so on.
His father was a big shot in gathering intelligence. Although Gael was not a professional intelligence officer, he knew all these methods!
It’s you!
After a while, he chose a young man who looked a little effeminate. He was actually hanging out with some weak people in Cla.s.s Two and Cla.s.s Three. He did not have the demeanor of an expert at all.
Yang Feixue!
A somewhat feminine name. Gael was afraid that he would be challenged by someone else, so he quickly confirmed it in the system.
Victor opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he saw Gael’s actions as fierce as a tiger.
He immediately facepalmed.
This time, it must be cold.
If he remembered correctly, this Yang Feixue was the one ranked third in the Heavenly Stairs compet.i.tion, right?
Gael must be tired of living.
I should have stopped him earlier…
Victor sighed helplessly, but on second thought, Gael had no desire to fight, and in the genius cla.s.s one, no matter if it was the first or the bottom, he was not able to win.
It was the same.
In the distance, Yang Feixue, who was teaching his cla.s.smates, was suddenly stunned. “Wait for me for ten seconds.”
His figure disappeared.
It happened to be ten seconds from the time he entered the arena to the end of the countdown.
Ten seconds later, Yang Feixue’s figure appeared again. “Where were we just talking about?”
On the other side,
Gael looked down.
The moment the countdown ended, he was defeated. He did not even know what had happened.
The defeat was even more thorough.
The three failures had already been used up. Gael’s face was burning. He lowered his head, as if the people around him were mocking him.
He no longer had the face to stay and was about to leave.
Suddenly,
A voice came from not far away, “Gael, I want to challenge you.”
He looked up and saw that it was an unfamiliar student. The clothes he wore told him that this was a student from Tree Shade City.
But…
The cla.s.s marked on the top of his head was especially dazzling.
Cla.s.s Three!
Gael clenched his fists.
His eyes were filled with rage like a wounded lion.
Unbearable!
Gael had accepted the challenge – he could not refuse it.
Ten minutes later,
Because of the anger in his mind, Gael charged recklessly without any order, and lost in a single move.
His emotions fluctuated violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Under the effect of the spiritual s.p.a.ce, his injuries recovered.
However, that feeling of defeat was impossible to get rid of.
The cla.s.s number on top of his head also changed from Cla.s.s Two to Cla.s.s Three.
It was as if he was mocking him for overestimating himself.
And because he had wasted three chances of failure, even if he wanted to continue to challenge and take back his ident.i.ty as a student of Cla.s.s Two, there was no way.
Gael left dejectedly.
Before he left, he was challenged twice again. This time, he was a student of Cla.s.s 4. Both of them were only at the awakened level. Gael easily won.
After being challenged three times, he had the right to refuse the subsequent challengers.
Gael could leave halfway and had to thank the other two challengers. Unfortunately, he was in no mood.
The exchange students of the Heroes ‘Club were in a bit of a tragedy.
Because Gael had lost four battles, whether it was the students of Tree Shade City or the exchange students from other holy lands, they all felt that the Heroes ‘Club was strong on the outside, but weak on the inside… No, it should be called strong on the outside, but weak on the inside.
Many people aimed their challenge targets at the exchange students of the Heroes ‘Club.
Victor had also fought two battles.
The challengers were all students from Cla.s.s Two, and he had won easily. After that, no one else challenged him.
However, the other genius who had been a.s.signed to Cla.s.s One had been pushed down.
The challenge at the end of the month lasted for half a day.
In the past, the challenge usually ended in an hour.
Who was strong, who was weak, the students all had a tree in their hearts.
This year, there were many more exchange students, and there seemed to be a bit of a mess.
The challenge and the challenge lasted for a long time.
In the beginning, the exchange students of the various holy lands were the initiators of the challenge, but after seeing Gael’s end, many people were terrified, and so they became the ones to be challenged.
With the expansion of the Genius cla.s.s, many students from the World Tree Academy had cut off the exchange students and promoted their rankings, obtaining even higher benefits.
Of course,
It was not like there were no challengers among the holy land exchange students.
Victor saw that there was a genius from Cla.s.s Three in Winter Fort Academy who had successfully advanced to Cla.s.s Two. There was also a genius from Cla.s.s Four who had succeeded in the challenge from Vo- Lun Duo.
But…
They were not challenging the students of the World Tree Academy, but the exchange students of other holy lands. One of them was from the Heroes ‘Club.
This was very awkward.
What was even more embarra.s.sing was that the two genius exchange students who had successfully challenged the World Tree Academy had not stood firm for long before they were KO-ed by the students of the World Tree Academy.
Victor looked around. None of the exchange students had advanced.
In fact, only sixty percent of them were able to maintain their current cla.s.s status. The rest fell to the next cla.s.s.
In the entire Genius Cla.s.s One, Victor realized that there were only four exchange students left. He, Yao Chengwu, Gu Tang, and Eva.
The only thing that made Victor and the other exchange students feel relieved was that although their exchange students were not as good as theirs, they were still a bit better than the others.
Those exchange students who were in the genius cla.s.s five were all successful in defending the arena against the challenge from the elite cla.s.s one. They defended their current position and barely managed to preserve a bit of face.
…
The end of the month a.s.sessment made many exchange students completely recognize themselves.
Many people did not care about the orders of the upper echelons of their respective holy lands to gather information. They all focused on cultivating. Even if it was for themselves, for the sake of the power behind them, they could not… be too bad.
In the blink of an eye, another three months had pa.s.sed.
The exchange students from the various holy lands were all extremely talented. With the perfect cultivation environment and resources, each person’s strength and realm had a qualitative breakthrough. Some of the geniuses who had fallen in the challenge at the end of the month had once again regained their positions.
The number of exchange students in the Genius Cla.s.s One had increased to seven.
Victor’s ranking on the Heaven Stairway ranking in the school had risen from forty-eight to thirty-three, and he was ranked in the top twenty-five in the Genius Cla.s.s One.
That’s right, not all of the geniuses ranked at the top of the Heaven Stairway were sixth grade students. Among them, there was no lack of fourth grade and fifth grade students. Those were the true geniuses.
This caused Victor to not dare to be arrogant.
“On the other hand, that guy Gael…”
Four consecutive kneeling at the end of the month had been a great blow to Gael, who had been running smoothly since the end of the world. Not only had he failed to return to Cla.s.s Two of the Genius, but it was said that in the recent a.s.sessment, even Cla.s.s Three’s status was almost lost.
His strength had not improved at all.
At the same time,
Far away in the Heroes ‘Club, Old Gael had also heard about his son.
“Ranked in the top hundred? Completely wasted. Not even completing basic training every day?”
He frowned and suppressed his anger.
He immediately put down his work and went to the teleportation area of Hero City. The right to use it was cut in line and directly sent to Tree Shade City.
