Both Walter and the Crown Princess failed in their attempts, which immediately sent a chill through Albert, Olina, and the others. If even these two couldn’t do it, it seemed there were indeed valid reasons why this saber had remained unclaimed in the treasure vault for so many years.At the thought of this, their interest in the Golden Jade Saber diminished significantly. The saber was undoubtedly powerful, but if no one could draw it, it was nothing more than an ornament.However, Emily’s fighting spirit didn’t fade because of this. On the contrary, Walter and the Crown Princess’s failure only sparked her interest. A rare glow of fervor and combat intent appeared in her mysterious golden eyes.Emily, do you want to give it a try? Our academy has never had a 9-Star Light Soul before. It might even be possible that this saber, which belongs to the dean, will lay down its arrogance for you, Vice Dean Elsie said at this moment, turning to Emily with a gentle tone as she asked.Everyone

The true goal of our academy is not just a ticket, but the ultimate reward in the Holy Grail War—the Dragon Bone Holy Grail...Upon hearing these four words, Walter, the Crown Princess, Emily, and the others all looked more solemn. For they were well aware of the significance, weight, and indeed, the pressure that the Dragon Bone Holy Grail carried.Every academy across the Eastern Divine Continent was eyeing the Dragon Bone Holy Grail covetously. It represented the glory of being the strongest academy in the Eastern Divine Continent, and at the same time, the power it possessed made all academies crave it intensely.The battles in this ticket-selection tournament were already intense, but they all knew well that this intensity was still far from comparable to the battles they would face in the Holy Grail War.Albert let out a silent sigh in his heart. He thought of the task the Academy Director had entrusted to him, yet he was just a student from the First-Star Institute. How much of

Even ordinary god-level powerhouses might not be able to get close to that study here.However, Walter approached the study without any hindrance. Before he could knock, the door opened automatically. When he walked in, he saw the Regent Prince sitting at the desk, flipping through classics and making some records.The Regent Prince was dressed in casual clothes. He looked up at Walter, and the latter bowed respectfully, Father.The Regent Prince waved his hand with a smile, No need for all these formalities at home.You did quite well in this Ticket Selection Tournament, he put down the book and a look of approval appeared on his face.Walter shook his head, though, and said, The opponents I faced weren't strong. That Osmond is far inferior to Nicola. And Nicola's defense is the strongest I've ever seen among peers—even Webb from our academy can't match him.If I had faced Nicola, I'm afraid I might not have been able to break through his defense within the time limit either.The Reg

Reporting to you, Miss—Elder Sean has returned to the headquarters.Elder Sean?A glint flashed in Albert’s eyes as he recalled the name. Elder Sean was one of the three Great Elders of the Martin Family, and the only one among the three who remained utterly loyal to the family, never once leaning toward Bernard’s faction.For an elder as powerful as him—who had reached the Heavenly Spirit Realm—to return to the headquarters at this critical juncture would undoubtedly strengthen the headquarters’ forces significantly.At the news, a faint look of joy also crossed Emily’s face. But soon, she noticed that Alvin’s expression still looked off, so she pressed, Is there something else?Alvin nodded.Elder Sean was ambushed and attacked on his way back. He himself is unharmed, but his only disciple was injured by a strange poison. It must have been... Bernard’s doing.Bernard is using this to threaten Elder Sean into leaving the Martin Family.Inside a reception hall of the Martin Family.Al

What's going on? Emily, who was standing aside, noticed the change in Albert's expression immediately and asked in a serious tone.Sean looked at Albert, then at Chloe, who was lying on the bed and actually starting to regain color in her face. He said in disbelief, Young Master, did you neutralize the poisonous gas?Albert shook his head with a complicated look and replied, It's not neutralized... it's transferred.He slowly rolled up his sleeve, and Emily, Sean, Cherry and the others in the room were instantly shocked to see that a dark red butterfly-shaped mark had appeared on Albert's arm.The butterfly seemed to be alive, slowly flapping its wings, and an unsettling aura emanated from it.Albert was also staring at the dark red butterfly, his voice becoming somewhat complicated.As expected... that bastard Bernard, he was actually targeting me this time. He's really good at scheming.Such a luxurious exotic poison, even powerhouses at the Heavenly Spirit Realm fear it.This guy r
