Cherry lifted her gaze from the book, pondered for a moment, and then said, "It shouldn't be too optimistic. You should know how attractive the Martin family is. It has a huge industry spread across all cities in Newhurst, with millions of gold coins in profits every year. This is enough to make any power jealous."

"And now the Martin family is facing both internal and external troubles. I think if it weren't for the fact that the Martin family still has some strength, and the potential shown by Emily has also deterred some people, perhaps some power would have already taken action against the Martin family."

Albert was silent for a while, then slightly shook his head and said, "If there are powerful forces not inferior to the Martin family really coveting it, just this deterrence is not enough."

Emily indeed has astonishing potential, but this is still just potential. Even in Albert's view, if it weren't for the protection of her identity as a student of the Newhurst Advanced Academy

    "But what does it mean that she's waiting for you here? You should have never met her, right?"Albert pondered for a moment and said, "Could she be another person who admires my good looks?"Cherry and Anna rolled their eyes at him simultaneously.Albert smiled and said, "It's no use speculating. I'll know once I meet her."With a leap, he mounted a strong red horse - like beast."Don't you need guards?" Cherry asked.Albert waved his hand. No one would be so stupid as to do anything to him outside the royal city. After all, no matter how down - and - out the Martin family was, it still had some power.The red horse - like beast let out a long neigh and galloped away, raising a trail of dust as it climbed the slope.On the slope, in a meadow, a precious velvet carpet was laid out. A long table was placed on it. Behind the long table, a green - haired girl was kneeling, her eyes quietly looking at Albert as he dismounted.When Albert dismounted, his eyes were also fixed on the green -

    She couldn't help but slap her small hand on the table, making a crisp sound, and soul power surged around her body.However, Albert stared at her with a calm expression and said, "Miss Rebecca's behavior is not making a good first impression of the Brian family on me.""Albert, you're being a bit too much!" Rebecca said in a deep voice.Albert's expression remained calm as he said, "Before Miss Rebecca says such things, she should first examine herself. Although I'm from Navia City, you can't treat me like a country bumpkin who knows nothing just because of that.""I was just giving you a suggestion." Rebecca's voice turned a bit colder.Albert smiled, stood up, and said, "I've never thought that the Martin family should rely on outsiders because I know it's unreliable. So, no matter who wants to deal with the Martin family, they have to ask for my permission."Rebecca said coldly, "I'm afraid it's to ask Emily, right?""Oh, right. And also ask my fiancée if she agrees." Albert smile

    However, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he could only endure it. He couldn't just blurt it out forcefully; that would be too embarrassing.So Albert could only suppress his discomfort."Let's go. Let's go see Sister Cherry and Anna. I haven't seen them for a while," Emily said. Then, she led the Crimson Horse Beast, took long strides, and walked down the hillside.Seeing this, Albert could only follow listlessly.The two walked down the slope. The evening sunlight fell from the sky, draping over them like a rosy shawl. From a distance, it seemed as if they were wrapped in light, becoming one.Cherry and Anna were standing outside the carriage. They looked at the two people approaching from afar. Then the former smiled and said, "Judging from their appearance, these two are really well - matched."Anna nodded in agreement. Even though she had never cared much about appearance, she had to admit that among the men she had met, few could compare with Albert in terms of looks alone.

    "There's no way around it. If I don't boost the income in Navia City, I'm afraid I can't even support myself," Albert said helplessly."Sister Cherry should have told you that I need a large amount of soul liquid, right? I've consumed quite a bit in these two months."Albert stretched out his palm, and blue water - element soul power condensed in his palm. The purity surging within that soul power made Emily's expression change slightly."On that day in the old mansion, when you just solved your soul problem, your soul level didn't seem to be this high," she said.Judging from the purity of the soul power surging in Albert's palm, Emily would believe that he possessed seven - star water - element soul power.But she clearly remembered that when Albert solved his soul problem that day, his soul was far from having this quality.And the current result should be due to the consumption of that large amount of soul liquid.However, what made Emily a little puzzled was that in just over two

    "And Emily is so biased. She even gave me a beating," Rebecca said unhappily. In the past, Emily had a good relationship with her, treating her like a younger sister. But now she realized that Emily obviously valued Albert more."I think you're the one being childish... What's the relationship between them? If you want to compete with Albert, aren't you just humiliating yourself?" Gaspar said helplessly."I'm not competing with him... It's you, big brother. Emily has already said she's not interested in you," Rebecca rolled her eyes at her big brother and said.But Gaspar just laughed it off and said, "Do I need to be told this? Can't I feel it during our usual interactions?""And someone as outstanding as Emily has the right to say such things."But Rebecca was a bit displeased and said, "Although you can't compare with Emily, big brother, at least you're a hundred times better than that Albert, right?""You're now a four - star student at the Newhurst Advanced Academy with the stren

    Albert couldn't help but burst out laughing because the fierce look of the person in front of him was such a huge contrast to his character. Who could have thought that someone who could stop a child from crying just by his appearance was actually too afraid to kill a chicken himself?People all said that the pig - killing knife on Joseph's waist probably had never seen blood in its life and was just for show.However, after laughing, a sense of 亲切感 welled up. After all, the person in front of him was indeed an old - timer in the Martin family, a truly trustworthy person."Uncle Joseph, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me again in the future," Albert said as he reached out and patted Joseph's greasy and thick arm.Joseph was touched and held Albert's hand, saying, "I've long wanted to go to Naxvia City to take care of you, but Emily wouldn't let me. Now that you've come to Newhurst City, I'll definitely fatten you up."He touched Albert's arm and sighed, "Young master, you're

    In the council hall, the lights were bright and dazzling, causing Albert to narrow his eyes slightly.When he opened them again, he saw that behind the long tables on both sides of the council hall, figures were sitting quietly. At this moment, all of their gazes, filled with complex emotions, were fixed on him.The atmosphere in the council hall seemed oddly stagnant for a moment.It was not until Emily's voice rang out, "Aren't you all going to greet the young master?"Only then did figures in the conference hall stand up one after another and say respectfully, "Hello, young master."Albert also nodded with a smile as a gesture of greeting, "Hello, everyone."Gazes landed on Albert's face. On this extremely handsome face, they saw the shadows of Andrew and Charlotte. However, the young man in front of them didn't have the intimidating aura and pressure of those two. What he had was only the youthfulness of a young man.Regarding Albert, the young master of the Martin family, in fact

    There's another important point. The other party didn't leave earlier or later, but chose to do these heartless things precisely when the young master arrived at the Martin family headquarters... If anyone says this isn't aimed at him, no one would believe it."Quiet."Emily's cold voice rang out in the noisy and chaotic council hall, and immediately everyone fell silent."This is a well - calculated move by the Baker family against the Martin family." There was no obvious anger on Emily's beautiful and smooth cheeks. Except for her cold eyes, she didn't seem to be enraged by this.However, this calmness instead made the anger of the people present gradually subside."It's the Baker family again..." Albert sat down in the seat next to Emily. Since arriving in Newhurst City, he had learned from Rebecca about the ill - will of the Baker family towards him. And now, they had carefully prepared such a "generous gift" for him. They really went to great lengths."The Baker family must have

    This is the result of being contaminated by malicious thoughts.However, as soon as this change occurred, an instructor's figure shot out like lightning, quickly subdued that student, and then forcefully took him away from the square.This kind of contamination is generally not too serious, but the purification will take some time. Presumably, that student will have to spend the next half month in the purification chamber.After the first contaminated person appeared, several other students were found, but none of them caused any. and all were brought under control.It wasn't until the last two Purple Radiance Instructors descended from the sky and dispersed the rays of energy that this inspection was considered over.Many students heaved a sigh of relief.Albert also let out a sigh of relief. However, he soon noticed that Emily's expression seemed to become a bit more solemn at this moment, and he immediately asked, "Isn't it over yet?"Emily was slightly silent and said, "Just watch

    The other students also nodded, showing their agreement with this statement. After all, the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf was extremely terrifying. Although it was sealed at the moment, just standing here made their legs go weak. So if it could be completely eliminated, it would indeed bring them peace of mind.Albert silently cursed in his heart. There was no Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf inside this seal at all. If Enoch really opened it, how could he explain it?At that time, someone might guess something, and it would inevitably cause some trouble.This damn guy is always causing trouble. It's really disgusting. When I have enough strength in the future, I'll crush you with one foot.Albert raged in his heart, but his expression remained calm. At the same time, he said calmly, "Because that's what the Academy Headmaster said. As for why, I don't know either. You can go and ask the Academy Headmaster."He was too lazy to explain more. Anyway, he threw all the blame on the Academy Headmas

Instructo Enoch." They all greeted respectfully.Instructor Ilya had a sheer veil covering her face. Although her appearance couldn't be clearly seen, the frown between her brows revealed her inner anxiety. Previously, upon receiving the notice, she immediately withdrew from the depths of the dark cave and rushed here in a hurry to provide support.After all, Albert's team was stationed in this stronghold. If anything happened to them, her entire faction would be completely wiped out.As for Enoch, he had just returned to the academy, and then the academy dispatched the two of them to rush here quickly through the teleportation array.When Instructor Ilya stepped out of

    Emily was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly. "Of course I know. This is the most intense confrontation among the various academies in the Eastern Domain Divine State and can be regarded as the biggest event among the academies.""Generally speaking, the Holy Grail War is held once every four years. Calculating the time, it seems that a new session will be held at the end of this year.""Can the final winner of the Holy Grail War obtain the so-called 'Dragon Bone Holy Grail'? Which academy won the Holy Grail in the last Holy Grail War?" Albert asked again."The academy that won the Dragon Bone Holy Grail in the last session was the 'Holy Ming King Academy' of the Shenyang Dynasty. This academy is extremely powerful and often dominates among many academies in the Eastern Domain Divine State. In the history of confrontations between Newhurst Senior Academy and it, Newhurst Senior Academy usually loses more and wins less," Emily thought for a moment and said."The Shenyang Dy

    Upon hearing this, Lane looked at Albert suspiciously and hesitated, saying, "When I previously examined your body, I did feel that you, little guy, were a bit weak.""I originally thought you were relying on your good looks and were young and didn't know how to exercise self-restraint."Albert couldn't help twitching his face. That was too much. In these years, the number of girls I've held hands with can be counted on one hand. How could it be possible that I'm not self-restrained?However, for the sake of one hundred thousand points, I'll endure it for now."Dean."Seeing that Albert was about to pester him again, Lane also felt a bit of a headache and could only helplessly say, "I'll talk to Elsie about this matter. That's it. Goodbye."Then, before Albert could say anything more, his figure disappeared like a wisp of smoke.Seeing this, Albert could only mutter, "He really ran away quickly."But he had already pleaded his case, so now it was up to the dean to see if he would show

    Albert believed that it wasn't just the Newhurst Senior Academy that had such a headache. Those other academies in the Eastern Domain Divine State should also be extremely troubled by the Dark Cavern.And the so-called "Dragon Bone Holy Grail" actually had the ability to suppress the Dark Cavern. If one could obtain it, one could imagine how many losses the academy that got it would avoid in the next few years.That kind of loss wasn't just about cultivation resources. It also included the significant and unignorable casualties within the academy.This had a fatal attraction for all the academies in the Eastern Domain Divine State."Dean..."Albert smiled bitterly and said, "You're not planning to ask me to compete for that 'Dragon Bone Holy Grail', are you? In a competition of that level, as a freshman, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything about it."Lane smiled and said, "Of course not. The competition for the 'Holy Grail War' depends on the most outstanding students of the ent

    An inexplicable heat welled up from within his heart. Albert now desperately needed powerful strength because his time was extremely pressing. In half a year, the Martin family would face a great upheaval. However, for that level of struggle, even if he was given another half a year, he felt that it would be very difficult for him to have much participation.The Martin family's defensive battle half a year later would likely involve countless forces and powerful individuals. According to Albert's estimation, those below the Heavenly Spirit Realm might not even have the qualification to participate.So at that time, he would mostly just have to watch Emily go into battle. No matter what 变故 occurred, he would be powerless to do anything.And this was something he couldn't bear to accept.He wanted to fight side by side with Emily and protect the Martin family.But his strength was still a bit lacking after all. After all, half a year was too short a time. And the secret technique that L

    When they were resting earlier, Albert took the initiative to tell Emily about the dark red bracelet. After all, the relationship between the two of them was extremely close, and he didn't keep many secrets from her.Albert looked at Emily's delicate and extremely beautiful face in front of him. Her skin was as white as snow and so delicate that it made people feel an urge to caress it. Their hands were clasped tightly together, and it was as if he was holding a piece of warm, cool, and smooth jade in his hand. This made Albert couldn't help but tickle the palm of her hand with his finger."Stop being naughty."Emily glanced at him, and the charm in that glance almost made Albert lose his mind.Emily let go of his hand and pondered, "There is a force in this dark red bracelet that even my soul power can't penetrate. That force is too vast, and I can't reach it at all. It shouldn't come from the three-tailed giant beast."She thought for a while, her golden eyes fixed on Albert, and sh

    "Didn't it say that this place was attacked by a great - level evil creature? How has it turned out to be a powerful spirit beast instead?""This seal is quite complicated. Was it done by the Grand Princess?""So impressive.""It seems that we've made this trip in vain. The Grand Princess has already resolved the crisis here all by herself."The senior students of the Fourth Star Academy praised one after another. Although they couldn't figure out the mystery of this sealing formation, it didn't stop them from feeling its profoundness.Walter was also a bit distracted. Then he shook his head and said, "This shouldn't have been done by Lucia. The remaining power on it isn't hers."But he had even more doubts in his heart. Besides the Grand Princess, who else in this stronghold could have resolved this crisis?And who created this seal?Amidst the many cheers, the rescue team poured into the stronghold.Inside the stronghold, many students lined the road to welcome them.
