Without wasting any words, Derek turned around and made the crowd retreat. Here, only he knew how terrifying Kieran could be when fighting off the hordes of beasts.Seeing this, several others in The First Academy also began to have the crowd retreat.They had come to unconditionally trust Kieran."Fine, if we're falling back, let's all lie low." Someone shrugged their shoulders.The First Academy was telling people to retreat. They didn't care, at worst they'll score zero again; after all, it's not only them who would be humiliated. Plus, The First Academy gets more attention, nobody's going to remember them anyway."Alright, retreat, retreat!" The crowd no longer insisted, everyone started to back off, looking indifferent.Roar...Just then, the roar of beasts echoed. The crowd looked up towards the direction of the fissures from where a countless number of monsters started emerging before diving into the various channels.Immediately after, they heard the creatures charging through

Meanwhile, General Montgomery who was charging towards Area One, stopped abruptly. He was also shocked by Kieran's frenzied attack."Ha ha..." He burst out laughing, "Everyone, keep fighting seriously, don't be distracted."Having said that, he surprisingly returned to the tall wall.At this very moment, Kieran persistently unleashed the Sunburst Strike, continuously harnessing more than three times his usual strength, which caused those three gigantic wolves to be covered in blood.Boom!With the detonation of the final punch, the colossal body fell thunderously.He stood before the corpse, looking straight ahead. By now, the passageway had completely burst open, but not a single monster from the front was charging in his direction. For a moment, a vast empty space formed around him, connecting to Zone 1, bare and desolate. On the ground lay only the corpses of monsters who had long been slain."So, they do have intelligence after all, knowing not to come this way," Kieran shook his

Before Kieran could respond, he continued, "I've seen your performance today, which was beyond my expectations and shocked everyone else. However, Edmund from the Ninth Academy is not far behind. He also summoned the Sacred Sound not long ago, even before you.""And then what?" Kieran casually asked.Seeing Kieran's indifferent reaction, Malcolm directly told him, "If you go, you're probably the one who'll be left red-faced!""As of today's mission, the military has divided the fissure into nine. The beasts are also rushing out from the passageway. In fact, under such circumstances, for a strong warrior, it isn't difficult to kill all the beasts."It was obvious from Malcolm's words that what Kieran could do, Edmund could also do. What shocked everyone was merely the fact that Kieran was incredibly young for his capabilities.However, comparing Kieran and Edmund, age becomes irrelevant. And Edmund certainly wouldn't suppress his own cultivation for a fair comparison.Kieran paused for

Marcus chuckled, "Remember the state of the First Academy before Kieran joined? You should all remember, right?"He looked straight at Tristan.Tristan immediately understood Marcus's implication.Marcus continued, "Actually, isn't the Eighth Academy just like the Capital's First Academy? The Eighth Academy was the weakest in Modu, just like the First Academy in the Capital; they were often ridiculed by students from the other three academies."So, he felt that the First Academy was in a similar predicament. Now that the First Academy had Kieran, they could fight back one by one. The Eighth Academy didn't have that advantage, but he seemed to see hope for them."Truthfully, who am I to not want to fight back?""People at the Eighth Academy say I'm too soft, but I can be firm. However, what would it accomplish? They would merely continue to bully the Eighth Academy.""But I have never made a move. They came to stir-up trouble in the hallway, but I never appeared. Instead, I asked all t

Ping An HotelCome morning, Kieran woke up, freshened up and stepped out of his room to the lobby.At this moment, Preston and the others were already waiting here."Have the arrangements been made?" Kieran asked as he started the conversation."Marcus called, saying that his girlfriend had already made the school-wide broadcast yesterday. He rushed over early this morning, waiting for you." Tristan replied with a smile.They were scheduled to visit the Seventh Academy today, ranked second among the Saint Academies. Tristan originally suggested that Kieran should first visit the Sixth Academy, to go in the order of strength. However, Kieran rejected the suggestion. In Kieran's words, it didn't matter which one they visited first, as long as they saved the Ninth Academy for last."Also, I rented a car."As they chatted, they exited the hotel. Sure enough, right at the hotel entrance was a business van parked."Seven-seater?" Kieran glanced at the car; there were eight people here."It
