Waves upon waves of scorching heat swept over him, overwhelming his sense of feeling and causing pain to spread across his face."How could he be so powerful? Serena, Serena!"He wanted to scream out his inner rage, but his anger wasn't directed at Kieran, rather it was aimed at Serena. They had been fooled. Kieran was no mere student.Similarly, they were told that the three of them could easily handle Kieran. However, the reality was so far from the expectation. This man in front of them was no less than the embodiment of the Grim Reaper. Even if their current number were to be doubled, they still wouldn't be a match for him. Their coming was akin to throwing their lives away.The next moment, the heat waves crazily crept into his throat, rendering him unable to utter a sound, left only with a silent scream within his heart.He watched as Kieran's figure suddenly flashed before charging in his direction.Summing all his strength, he pushed out a palm. Yet, all he met were afterimage

The current First Academy makes all newcomers and old students from other academies feel suffocated.Before, when students from the Saint Academies of Imperial City gathered together, they would always mock the students of the First Academy. Now, however, he glanced forward, and the other academies did not dare make a peep.And all of this is because of one person, Kieran Vale.He had followed the First Academy to watch Kieran in action; the fright that Kieran gave off, he still couldn't forget to this day.He tried to look around, but he could not see Kieran."Even if he's not here, the other four Saint Academies in Imperial City are all quiet!" He sighed internally, this was simply an impossibility in previous years."I've heard about the strongest newcomer in the First Academy too, but it's hard for me to believe!" Someone shook his head and said."Indeed, a newcomer can be that strong, that's just outrageous!" Someone else shook his head in agreement.One person from the Imperial

The Ninth Academy had not attached much importance to this mission, hence, most of the participants were freshmen. There were two sophomores, but in his opinion, none of them were a match for Kieran.If they didn't replace him with someone stronger, Kieran would undoubtedly steal the entire limelight, something the Ninth Academy could not tolerate, because Kieran was the person they had once rejected."For our own good?" Lucas and Eric both had unhappy expressions.However, they didn't speak, though internally, they remained unconvinced. They were also Generals, and believed they were not inferior to anyone of the same age."Director Malcolm, do you know the other party?" A sophomore asked from the midst of the Ninth Academy members.Malcolm looked at the person across him. This man was supposed to be the strongest among the batch who came this time.He nodded, "Yes, we've met before.""That's interesting. Judging from Director Malcolm's expression, this man seems to be quite powerful

Everyone nodded in agreement. Humanity not only needed great people but couldn't do without the ordinary ones.General Montgomery pondered for a moment and said, "Beast Cores are quite versatile, and they are also very useful for the military. This task assignment gives your students a chance to gain practical experience. All the materials from the monster beast fall into the military's possession.""With this, if you decide to join my Southern War Zone after graduation, I promise to give you half of the Beast Cores from this monster creature. How about it?"Kieran was taken aback and bitterly laughed. "General Montgomery, aren't you making it hard for me?"If he were to join the Southern War Zone, what would happen when Commander Brennan found out? He would skin him alive. The Dragon Blood wasn't absorbed for nothing. He didn't have any to give back when demanded.Montgomery also understood the relationship between Kieran and the Western War Zone and said regretfully, "The Western Wa
