YM778.TV Chapter 62: The Bet! (Fixed)
"They\'re performing well, becoming more mature."
"They should be mature by now."
"Although this is their first impromptu assignment. If they can\'t remain calm in life-and-death fights, their mentality is too weak to be in this academy." The instructors, dozens of them, clicked on their screens, constantly changing their observation targets.
Each impromptu assignment was a growth opportunity for the students.
"What about him?"
"This kid is fully adapting to the dimension." Magus Daphne smiled, pointing at Tron on the screen.
Numerous high-altitude surveillance arcane tech, combined with the positioning bracelets worn by each participants, ensured that each student was monitored accurately, recording each student\'s score.
"He has very impressive physical prowess. Seems he has an high level of attainment in Zero-level spells. Moreover, he\'s also using the beasts to train his physique even further. He\'s also very calm even when getting constantly hit."
"You can also see he manages to position his body in a way that he doesn\'t suffer much injury even when hit."
"However, being calm is nothing rare amongst the students. Without the calmness of mind, it would be almost impossible to cast spells."
The other Instructors looked at Tron\'s figure through the larger screen and analyzed Tron in just a few seconds.
"Wait a minute, isn\'t this the kid that crossed levels and murdered Valtor\'s brother and his friends?"
"I thought he wasn\'t supposed to receive lecture and resources as punishment. What is he doing here Daphne? You dare to disobey the Dean\'s words?" Magus Gerald who was a Master Herbalist and an Instructor in the Herbalist department suddenly spoke up.
His bushy eyebrows shot up strangely as he pierced his eyes at Tron in the surveillance screen.
Magus Daphne indifferently glmaced at the man who was young but possess wrinkled skin and coldly replied. "If you had been there, you would know that the Dean said nothing about giving him assignments. I\'m not giving him lectures nor am I giving him resources. I only gave him assignments. In fact, its not in his favour as all he had learnt are simple level zero spells.
Advanced spells like level one or two spells arekept from him which means that giving him this assignment is even more dangerous and would definitely cost him his life."
Herbalist Gerald snorted coldly. "I hope you know what you are going Daphne. If he wins, he\'s not getting anything from the academy and the rewards would be shared with the top ten students."
As he said this, Magus Alice suddenly laughed. Her golden hair inflamed with golden fire like a lion\'s mane floated and her thick eye brows twitched in response.
Her dimples like a dazzling stars illuminatimg her captivating radiance as her big bust covered in tiger fur jiggled as she giggled.
"Don\'t make me laugh Gerald. Someone who clearly only knows zero level spells winning the first assignment? That has never been done since the history of the academy. You shouldn\'t be too worried Gerald, it\'s simply impossible."
Magus Alice grabbed another jug of alcohol, her eyes lightning up in joy as she felt the burning sensation pour down her throat and inflamming her intestine and belly, it was a truly satisfying feeling. If only that feeling didn\'t fade as her beastly body didn\'t metabolize the alcohol so quickly.
Hearing this, Herbalist Gerald snorted but didn\'t say anything when suddenly, Magus Daphne spoke.
"Do you want to bet?"
The entire hall turned silent and some even chuckled thinking Magus Daphne was joking only to turn silent as they realized she was actually been serious.
"Hahaha. Daphne, you are truly being serious. I didn\'t think you have the guts but today, I\'m beginning to admire you."
Magus Alice dropped the now empty jar of alcohol on the table and gave her two huge thumbs up.
"I\'m available for anyone willing to bet. Magus Alice, your Crimson Flame White Tiger beast skin isn\'t too bad for a bet."
Magus Alice of the Were-beast Magus department\'s laughing face instantly dropped and turned chilling as she spoke frostily.
"Can your entire fortune afford it?"
...
First, he needed to find a place to settle first since the scent of blood would definitely attract a more stronger beast.
Tron reached his hand, grabbing his bag back. With his head bowed, his eyes weren\'t visible to the outside world, making it impossible to predict what he was doing.
The moment his hand stretched to touch his bag, the wind trembled and the air was literally ripped apart as a large blade escaped through the confinement of space, slicing extremely close to Tron\'s hands.
"An Enhanced Mutated Beast!?"
Tron\'s body faded, drifting along the wind like an odorless smoke, drawing a long two meters blur that moved backward away from his original position.
The blur elongated towards a building nearby and then eventually faded, the second point of the blur revealing Tron\'s true body. Before the blade could pass through him, he had activated Blood Burst at the last minute!
His expression currently was extremely dark. He had ten times the sense of an ordinary person, but was still unable to sense the strange beast even at that close distance. If it weren\'t for his incredible sense of danger, he wouldn\'t have been able to escape the sneak attack and would have been severely Injured amd in a place like this, it was most definitely a death sentence for anyone.
"Just what sort of beast is that?" His cells bounced together rapidly and his muscles oscillated rapidly, generating massive heat that turned his breathing into two streams of steam.
The beast could alter its appearance, blending incredibly close to its surrounding with its camouflage. It was only an enhanced mutated beast bug its ability was already overpowered. Tron couldn\'t imagine how strong the ability would be if the beast developed the gene to become a Magical Beast. It could stand extremely close to him and he wouldn\'t still be able to sense it!
This piqued Tron\'s interest. If he could get this beast geneskin and merge it to his skin, he would be one of the deadliest assassins alive. But it was only an enhanced beast, not a magical beast hence, it future advancement would be really limited.
