BXBX NOVEL Chapter 372 What Will Zack Do?
Seeing the fortified wall, my expression eased a little. I don\'t want the breath of the lightning essence to be noticed by anyone. The lightning pearl has a pure essence that can be easily noticed by powerhouses.
I don\'t know whether anyone is staring at our home right now. But I feel there is a possibility of it. So I decided to be more careful in my actions. After locking the door, I walked forward to the centre.
Then I sat cross legged and took the lightning essence pearl out of my storage ring. The glittering purple colour blinds my eye for a moment.
Then slowly I adjusted myself and began to cultivate. I held the lightning pearl between my two palms and began reciting the celestial lightning scripture.
Next, the lightning rune in my mind began to flicker as I recited the words. Slowly I immersed myself in cultivation. After absorption, the pure lightning essence started to circulate in my body according to the scripture, then it finally settled down in my dantian.
The process continues, and I slowly forget what\'s happening outside, as my goal is to spend a few more hours on cultivation this time.
...
At this time, what Zack wasn\'t aware of was that news released by City Lord Aaron Powell also detonated Red Stone City. Hearing that, cold shivers went down everyone\'s spine.
People want to believe it as false news. But no way, who told the City Lord to release it himself? When it comes to Iron Post City, he is the ultimate authority.
Study room,
James Lockwood was completely dumbstruck by the news. He talked about this to Zack a couple of minutes ago. After reading the online news, he couldn\'t keep his calm.
"Damn, which force is it? It\'s so fierce,"he muttered in shock.
It took a while for him to digest the information. Then a slight glint flashes in her eyes. Apart from Tier-7 cities, nothing comes to his mind right now. Only they are capable of raising such monsters.
"Are those powerful families already letting their descendants walk around?" He said to himself.
James knows that the crimson hall competition is a few months around the corner from happening. So it\'s quite understandable that talented geniuses were popping up at this time.
What does he fear that this explosive news will have a ripple effect? In the coming days, there is a possibility that more and more geniuses will appear.
Suddenly, he gazed in the direction of the backyard. He is worried about Zack right now. Zack is the current leader/champion of Star Tower. So there is a possibility that these talented warriors will challenge Zack in the coming days.
He also guessed that the winner of 1 billion credit points might be Peak Trainee Warrior. Such cultivation bases under 14 or 16 years old can be called monsters.
When they join the academy, they will step into an elite base in a few days. "Zack, how are you going to handle the coming storm?" James muttered to himself.
At that moment, he forgot about the assassins and bounty hunters. If Zack can emerge as the winner from peer challenges, then there is nothing to worry about outside threats.
He believes that Zack\'s teacher will take care of the outside problem. But when it comes to the road Zack can only walk himself.
He decided to have a good talk with Zack about it. He knows Zack is a mature child. If he can cross this hurdle, then he won\'t be afraid of other participants in the Crimson Hall competition.
BUZZ
A notification sound resonated inside the room.
James glanced at the contact number before attending the call. He asked, "What is it now?" He knows the other person is getting impatient. Arthur had requested his help to ease down the relationship between Zack and Elder Thornton.
But seeing Zack\'s firm attitude, how can he go against his wishes?
On the other hand, hearing James\'s annoying tone, Arthur doesn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. In front of him, Elder Thornton is hearing their conversations. Because Arthur put it on speaker.
"Did you talk to Zack?" Arthur inquired.
James sighed and said, "Yes, he decided to take some rest for a few days before going out."
A quick glint flashes in Elder Thornton\'s eyes.
"What happened to this child?" He thought to himself.
Usually, Zack comes to their Hansen Campus after his monster-zone excursion. Because he needs to travel via Red Stone City to reach his home. So Zack had no other choice but to stop by the Red Stone City.
But this time, Zack didn\'t even come to their campus. "Strange," he grumbled.
But the next second he realised something. He directly asked, "Is he injured?"
Hearing that Arthur had blacklines in his forehead Earlier, Elder said he wouldn\'t interfere in his conversation. But right now he is interjecting openly.
James heard a deep voice this time. He had no doubt whose voice belonged to. His expression turned solemn for a moment. "Why this secrecy? He can talk to me directly, "James said in his heart.
But the next second, he retracted his thoughts and answered politely, "Elder, Zack is doing alright now and he has a Mid-level Special Trainee cultivation base."
A happy glint flashes in Elder Thornton\'s eyes. Even Arthur was surprised. Earlier, everyone opposed Zack\'s trip. He even scolded his friend James, who proposed it. But Zack somehow benefited from the trip in the end.
Which is also good for their campus.
At this time, Elder Thornton and Arthur looked into each other\'s eyes. They have a tacit understanding of each other. It\'s not a good idea to push him any further now that he\'s made a breakthrough.
So Elder Thornton was satisfied with Zack\'s progression. He decided to let him rest for a few days. Then he signalled to Arthur to end the conversation.
Seeing that, Arthur nodded and replied, "It\'s good news, which we all needed right now. Tell Zack to take a rest without any worries. We are fine with it. Then I\'ll call you back later. "
James breathed in relief. It\'s good that both of them understand the situation. Then suddenly, he decided to ask about the monster genius who won 1 billion credit points.
"Arthur," he said.
On the other hand, Arthur decided to end the call but paused his movements at the last second.
Arthur asked, "Is there anything you want to ask?"
Hearing from James about the news that was released a couple of minutes ago,
Elder Thornton\'s eyes widened in surprise. He immediately accessed his sci-fi watch to read the news. Both of them were in the meeting hall, so they didn\'t check the news.
Elder Thornton\'s eyes quickly scanned the trending articles from the red stone city\'s media houses. "It\'s as James spoke, a monster genius popped up all of a sudden," Elder Thornton said.
Arthur\'s breath quickens faster. If this is true, then what is the exact cultivation basis of such geniuses? Arthur worries that some stupid meida houses in Redstone City will take this topic to compare against Zack.
Already, they are debating about a challenge post from the new young warriors of Red Stone City. Now this will gain further attention.Then everyone will further stare at their campus\'s direction.
Several thoughts were running throughout his mind.
The atmosphere turned solemn for a moment. This situation can\'t be discussed on the call. In order to make future preparations, they need to formalise some plans. In particular, how to keep the media from exacerbating the situation.
Elder Thornton finally said, "Okay, James. It\'s a serious topic, we can discuss it in person later."
Then they talked about a few more things before ending the call. After ending the call, Arthur looked at Elder Thornton for some answers.
"This smells like trouble," Elder Thornton said. Their little Hansen Campus got famous because of Zack. Other than Zack, there is no one here to uphold their reputation. That\'s why they didn\'t accept the challenge requested by the young warriors without Zack\'s consent.
Now, he doesn\'t know? What problems will this minor development cause?He also thinks that Iron Post City\'s monster genius may come from Tier-7 City.
As this thought arose, his expression condensed greatly. Zack\'s images flash before his eyes. He was worried about Zack as well. More than the challenges issued by local warriors, he fears the challenges from Tier-7 city warriors will trouble Zack greatly.
Elder Thornton has made some firm decisions right now. He looked at Arthur and said, "Arthur, you go to Zack\'s house right now."
"What?" Arthur was startled.
He was expecting something else. But he didn\'t expect Elder to say this. What does he want me to do?
Looking at his expression, Elder Thornton answered, "You go and see, what are his intentions? If he needs something, you can tell me right away. We need his presence here more than now."
Arthur nodded at him in understanding. He sighed inside. If not for the previous misunderstanding, we wouldn\'t have had to be hesitant now. As per the Elder\'s order, he can check Zack\'s attitude in person.
