Emrys was stuffed to the brim after his meal. The food server kept going back and forth to his table multiple times, attracting the attention of other students.On the second floor, the atmosphere was less crowded. Four men sat facing each other at a square table.Their expressions were grim, and except for one, none of them seemed interested in touching the food prepared for them. Magnus Silver, a 5th Grade Falcon and Guild Leader of the Black Dragons, sighed.He seemed bored at his table. Soon, he stood up and forced a smile as he excused himself. "I need some fresh air."He received no response from the others and left without another word.As he walked towards the open balcony with his hands in his pockets, he encountered one of the nobles, Lucien Li.Without uttering a word, they simply locked eyes for a moment before Magnus bowed and the man passed him by.Back on the lower floor of the Dining Hall Castle, Emrys finally stopped eating. He felt like he was about to throw up from

Emrys woke up early. He was used to waking up at four in the morning and preparing for the day ahead.In just half an hour, he was done showering and getting dressed. He still had enough time before his first day at the institution, so he took out a new black cultivation stone.He sat properly on his bed again, swallowed the cultivation stone, and quietly began cultivating.He let out a breath, closed his eyes, and tried to immerse himself in intense concentration. He felt the cold aura surrounding him.He forced himself to synchronize the calm in and out of his breath through his mouth and nose. Slowly, all the sounds around him faded away. He felt like he was floating in nothingness.He was inside a Magic Palace.This Magic Palace was the void that he was trying to fill with energy he obtained from the physical world.He used his calm mind and intense concentration to become a conduit for energy between these two worlds.As Emrys continuously channeled the natural energy from his wo

"My name is Laugro Revis. A 2nd Grade Tempest. And what I'm going to teach you now is what you need to know when it comes to the cultivation process and cultivation stones. Method of proper use, and everywhere it can be seen accordingly in their colors."This is their second teacher. They were taught knowledge about the cultivation process and cultivation stones."The cultivation stones have only four categories. And they adjust their strength according to their colors." The teacher spoke in the middle of the class while Emrys leaned against his chair while looking out the window."Green is a 1st grade cultivation item. This is the weakest and common rock that only scattered in our world. When consumed, more than twenty percent will be added to your normal ability to develop your own body."Meanwhile. Blue cultivation stones are another 2nd grade cultivation item. And when you use it, it can increase forty percent of your natural ability process during cultivation. And the red cultiva

Until finally, the barrage of attacks ceased—Wayne himself charged at him. “Come on, kid! Give me a good fight! You’ll never kill me if you keep hesitating!” “Tsk. I don’t need you to lecture me!” Wayne’s smile widened with delight. “So you can talk.” Their attacks clashed once again. Each slash of Raphael’s blade was blocked, while Wayne’s fists struck back—only for Raphael to parry them as well. Raphael shifted behind Wayne to try and catch him off guard, but he received a kick to the stomach instead. Before he could be thrown back, Wayne managed to grab Raphael by the hair, leaving him with no escape. “Got you!” He slammed the boy’s face into the ground, creating a crater with the impact. Wayne burst out laughing. “What’s wrong?! I thought you were strong!” He lifted Raphael’s head, preparing to smash it into the ground again— But a shadow flashed in front of him, and in the next heartbeat, his arm—the one gripping Raphael’s hair—was severed. Not far away stood Leander, h

Yes, it was normal for an adventurer to live surrounded by conflict—since that was often the only way to solve problems in the world.But in this institution, things didn’t feel normal anymore. It felt like every kind of trouble was specifically seeking him out. Maybe he really needed to find a Guild before the first Guilds Event arrived.But how could he do that when everyone already despised him on his first day?As he sank deeper into thought, an idea suddenly lit up in his mind.He returned to class. Everyone was busy watching the duel and listening to their instructor’s lecture. But Emrys’s mind was elsewhere.Later, in the Dining Hall, he sat quietly. He ignored all the mocking whispers around him. Rumors were spreading that he surrendered because he supposedly peed himself during the duel.It was humiliating, but Emrys finished his food without reacting to anything around him.At a nearby table, Heji chatted with his friends, though he kept glancing at Emrys. He knew his role a
