(From Zack's point of view) Today is my life or death battle. I'm not sure whether or not a variable will appear. Luke is the only one I need to be cautious of. There are no other strongmen on our campus besides him. Following my return from Mountain Liz. I got one step closer to making the next big breakthrough. All I need to do now is build up enough strength, and I'll be able to make a clean break. For my body strength, I only need two blood essence pills to make a breakthrough. But there's no rush; I can ask Mr. Arthur after the duel. My current strength is enough to kill Luke and the others. The only thing I need to be cautious of is their calculation. I can dissolve their backhand with my perceptual ability. I just hope no anomalies appear. I left home after packing my belongings and made my way to the train station. Along the way, I pay close attention to my power. Even though, for my age, I had already surpassed my peers in cultivation. But I have a strong sense of urgency. Only by unlocking the 7th region of the brain and increasing my body strength to domain level 15 will I be able to relax. I shook my head and pushed these thoughts to the back of my mind. I used to dream about that inheritance test in my sleep now and then. Which constantly reminds me to concentrate on my main goal of passing the test. Realizing this, I smiled helplessly. These days, I feel safe around Uncle James, Granny, and the Hansen campus staff. Even I forgot about my inheritance test because I was dreaming about Saw Scale Viper academy. However, if I pass the inheritance test and gain access to that ancient legacy. I am easily counted among the powerhouses. Despite this, I am not aware of our country's status as a world powerhouse. But I don't think my inheritance will pale in comparison. I boarded the train to Red Stone City a few minutes later. I looked through some articles on the server. It's great that students from May Ford People returned to their original location on the same day. Otherwise, I can't put up with unnecessary headaches. I closed my eyes and waited for my destination after reading a couple of articles in the server. The train arrives in Red Stone City a few hours later. I opened my eyes when I heard the announcement. And took a step out of the compartment. Then I make my way to the exit. Along the way, I became aware of someone prying on me. I immediately remembered the strange incident I had witnessed at the Mountain Liz. I'm getting black lines on my forehead just thinking about it. Anyway, as long as there is no intent to kill, everything is fine. I can turn a blind eye to it. But I'm not sure how things are on my uncle's side of the office. I'd be relieved if he could provide me with some information about it. These superfluous things annoy me daily. Then I noticed a white air cab close to the station's exit. I rushed in and informed the driver about my destination. The air cab landed near Hansen campus a few minutes later. Then I make my way to Mr. Arthur's cabin. It also became a part of my routine. I make an effort to speak with him whenever I have the opportunity. Several students were staring at me as I walked. I assumed it was the usual gossip spewed by them. But as I continued to walk forward. Their expression is little but gloomy, in my opinion. It's not just them; some juniors have sad expressions as well. "What transpired?" In perplexity, I furrowed my brows. Usually, these seniors have a bias against me. And they used to look down on me. But what about these newcomers who arrived later than me? I arrived at Mr. Arthur's cabin, shaking my head. Hearing a knock on the door. He opened the door for me. As I entered the cabin, my steps came to a halt when I noticed Mr. Arthur's glum expression. What transpired? Why is everyone so pessimistic? Something is wrong, I couldn't help but think. Mr. Arthur motions for me to take a seat. I nodded and took the seat across from him. "How self-assured are you?" With a blank expression on his face, Mr. Arthur inquired. When I heard that, I knew he was asking about today's duel. "I'm pretty confident in killing Luke," I said, nodding my head. Despite the fact that his means were formidable. But I, too, have some powerful cards in my hand. So I'm not concerned." Mr. Arthur gave a weak smile when he heard that. Seeing this, I inquired, "Mr. Arthur, What transpired? "Are you sick or what?" Mr. Arthur sighed as he heard Zack's words. "It's nothing," he said. I've been working extra hours for a few days now. "As a result, I'm a little tired." Hearing that, I had no doubts about him. Even if he is having difficulties, he can seek the assistance of Elder Thornton. As a result, I'm not concerned about his safety. On the other hand, I told him about the students' strange expressions. When he heard that, Mr. Arthur smiled wryly. He, too, understands the students' mindset. They were bothered by the humiliation of the May Ford students. It can't be avoided, given the importance of student and campus safety. Nothing more than a little humiliation. Mr. Arthur shook his head as he observed Zack's expression and asked, "Did you watch the video?" Mr. Arthur added, "Since top students were given leave that day." I nodded. They were unable to take part in that difficult event. On the other hand, for them no one accepted his last challenge that day. As a result, the match ended with two duels. It only made students a little dissatisfied." That's why the students were acting strangely. I shook my head in displeasure. It's natural for them to have that expression because they aren't aware of the intelligence. Then I inquired, "Mr. Arthur, "How about that blood essence pill?" "Kid, blood essence pills aren't like candies you can get anywhere. I've already told you about this, Uh huh" leave it be, here's your pill. Mr. Arthur presented Zack with a small wooden case. "Last time you told me you were going to use blood essence pill in a duel," he added. So I went out and bought two pills for you." " Thank you, Mr. Arthur. " I'll keep the wooden case in my storage ring. With a smile, I said. "Uh, there's no need to thank me. In any case, it's not my money. "I'm depleting our treasury." Mr. Arthur responded with a heartfelt chuckle. In my heart, I smiled wryly. Anyway, I'm hoping to make a breakthrough with these two pills. I didn't think he'd give me today. I expected it to take another week. With this, I can try to make a breakthrough before the match at noon. "OK, Mr. Arthur," I said as I stood up from my seat. "I'll just go prepare for the game." Mr. Arthur nodded and added, "And one more thing, Elder Jensen has returned." So, keep a safe distance from him." Hearing that, my eyes condensed; I just hope the old man doesn't pursue the matter. I then left his cabin and went to my training pod chamber. When I arrived at my pod chamber, I scanned my ID to gain access. "Creak," the door opened as soon as the confirmation was given. When I stepped inside, the door closed on its own. Since I've made a breakthrough, this pod chamber is the best place for me. In comparison to the outside world, the world's energy is a little more abundant. This location is always ideal for me to have a breakthrough. Then, without further thought, I placed a meditation mat on the ground. Then I turned on the world energy settings. I can vaguely sense dense world energy a few seconds later. After that, I sat on the meditation mat. I seeped my consciousness into the storage ring and took out the wooden case. Inside the wooden case, I noticed two red pills. Then I read the essence pill's description. It's the blood essence pill of a snake monster of Class 1's Peak level. I only took one pill. My mouth is filled with warm energy. Then, all of a sudden, a warm current courses through my vein as it begins to melt. I started reciting the blood cultivation method. The routine soon resumed as usual. I endured the agonising pain while maintaining my conscious. As time passed, the white energies became ingrained in my bones. I'm starting to feel the barrier again. All I need to do is break through that one major barrier. Seeing the blood essence dwindle. I took another blood essence pill. As the white energies are being drilled into bone this time. My body is changing, and I can feel it. It appears to be an illusion, but I knew it was one step closer to a better physique.
