One by one, they leapt to their feet, rushing toward Dorian in a clamor of competing offers."Dorian Ash, is it? I'm the enrollment officer from Ironwall Martial Academy. We would be absolutely thrilled to have you join us —""Dorian, I represent Goldleaf Martial Academy from Ashenveil City. Though it's a bit farther from Ironveil City, if you're willing to come, I can personally request additional rewards from the academy!""That's right, Dorian! Name your terms — whatever you want, we will do our best to meet your demands if you choose our academy!""Dorian, let's be honest — Stormcrest Martial Academy is prestigious, no doubt. But it's packed with geniuses, the competition is cutthroat, and the pressure would crush most people. Why not consider Emberfield Martial Academy instead?"The enrollment officers served as representatives of their respective martial academies, scouting talented new disciples from local training schools across the region.Recruiting exceptional students mean

As a late-stage Two-Star martial prodigy, Warren's explosive power in his rage had far surpassed the maximum strength recorded in the assessment — reaching a staggering 1,200 pounds of force!With a grip like that, even solid hardwood would snap instantly — let alone the fragile human throat.Warren was beyond furious.Being repeatedly looked down upon by someone he considered worthless was something his pride simply could not tolerate.Though he wouldn't dare kill Dorian outright in this setting, he was determined to cripple him beyond recovery — ensuring this nobody could never even dream of becoming a true martial artist."Incredible!"Below the platform, hundreds of third-year students watching the confrontation gasped in shock.That speed, that power — most of them wouldn't stand a chance if they were up there. Dorian seemed as good as finished.On the high platform, the recruitment officers from various martial academies, Dean Aldren, the vice deans, and Elder Harwick — all watc

The group exchanged bewildered glances, the absurdity of the situation sinking in.Warren's sneer froze on his lips.Lyra's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, as if she couldn't trust her own ears.Up on the high platform, the thirty-two recruitment officers from martial academies across the kingdom exchanged looks, each seeing a flicker of astonishment in the others' eyes.At first glance, that young man had seemed utterly unremarkable, and rumors of his expulsion as a poor student had made them dismiss him outright.But this result — how could it be so extraordinary?!They were all well aware of the unspoken rules of the academy's assessments. In other words, that young man named Dorian Ash was nothing short of a genuine prodigy!Let it be known —These recruitment officers had years, some even over a decade, of experience under their belts. They had assessed countless students, yet —Those who achieved a perfect score were rarer than one in a hundred!Incredible!To think that in

On the high platform, Dean Aldren had initially believed that given his prestigious position in the academy and the sheer authority in his furious reprimand, Dorian — the weak and cowardly underdog — would be trembling in fear, too intimidated to resist, and would simply slink away in disgrace.But!Instead, he saw Dorian standing perfectly still, his gaze unwavering and devoid of fear, even carrying a hint of amusement as he met the dean's eyes."Dean Aldren, if you want to expel me, fine. But I've paid the full tuition for this semester. There's no reason to bar me from taking the final assessment, is there?""You —!"8:43 AMDean Aldren's eyes bulged with rage. He hadn't expected this boy to dare talk back to him!Noticing the impatient expressions of the martial academy recruiters nearby, the dean quickly sneered and snapped at Dorian."Fine! You're no longer a student of Duskfall Academy anyway. Take this last exam and then get the hell out!"He then turned to the recruiters with

With a calm flick of his sleeve, Dorian glanced at Elder Harwick and said coolly, "Oh, go ahead and expel me if you want. Either way, I'm taking today's entrance exam."Without another word, he brushed past Elder Harwick and strode into Duskfall Academy."Damn it! You'd rather take the hard way than the easy one — ungrateful bastard!"Watching Dorian's defiant figure disappear into the academy, Elder Harwick clenched his fists, his face darkening with rage.Then, he quickly followed after him.......The Martial Hall — Duskfall AcademyThis was where Duskfall Academy held its entrance exams.The dean and vice deans of Duskfall Academy were all present, standing respectfully alongside over thirty stern-faced martial academy representatives from across the kingdom, each exuding formidable auras.Every single one of the thirty-two martial academies in the Ironveil Kingdom had sent their enrollment officers.Hundreds of third-year students stood in orderly rows across the vast hall, await

Dorian slowly lifted his head, his expression chillingly blank as he fixed his gaze on the sharp-faced youth. "Seems like... you still don't quite grasp your current situation."His voice was like the bite of midwinter, sending an icy shudder down the other's spine.Then their eyes met."Ah... ah..."The sharp-faced youth felt as if he were staring into the abyss — Dorian's dark, fathomless eyes radiated a bone-deep cold, like a bloodthirsty predator had locked onto him.His scrawny frame trembled uncontrollably, his pupils dilating in terror.His mouth gaped soundlessly before his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed in a dead faint.He had actually passed out from sheer fright."Pathetic. With a will that weak, what's the point of practicing martial arts?"Dorian glanced down at the unconscious youth with disdain, shaking his head in cold amusement.Without another word, he grabbed both the sharp-faced weakling and the stocky thug by their collars and hurled them out the door like dis
