Chapter 573 Part 1: Duel Against Vina Potkins





From MC's perspective:

10 A.M,

I woke up sometime later. After seeing the timing, I decided to get a shower.

20 minutes later,

After changing into academy clothes. I began to access the news on the communication watch. Then I saw several articles.

Many of them are looking forward to today's duel. A faint smile appeared on my face. If I use my body strength, I can easily defeat her.

Exposing too much strength is not a good thing. There is still an existence that I need to be wary of. 

The supreme elder comes to mind. I don't know why. But my instincts tell me to lay low. 

After pushing down these thoughts. I began to read further articles. 

...

Meanwhile,

Somewhere deep in the academy. In an isolated place, the Supreme Elder of the academy is located. 

The Supreme Leader of the Saw Scale Viper Academy is a dying old man. But the energy released from his body tells otherwise. 

There is a reason for it. The old man took some black liquid and consumed it in one go. 

From his looks, it can be said that the black liquid was a precious substance. But he didn't have any more stock.

"That was last," He muttered to himself.

The black liquid is delaying his death. But it was not a natural treasure. But it's the product of something evil.

The old man's eyes flickered. He took his communication watch and contacted a person.

When the call was connected. 

The old man hurriedly asked," I need that forbidden liquid. Can you give me more?"

When he said that his eyes looked desperate. No one would have expected that the Supreme Elder of the academy would be so desperate to continue his life.

"Ha...Ha...Ha..."

"Looks like you can't control anymore," The person's voice sounded strange with a mix of male and female voices.

The old man's eyes dimmed. 

He asked, "What do you want?" 

"Old man, there are some hindrances to my plan. I hope you give me a green signal," the person said.

He was the same person who was behind the Giant Tower Headmaster.

The old man frowned. He knows that a person's strength is beyond his imagination. He may be planning something sinister in this region.

But he can't help but think of himself. If he dies, then the Academy will face destruction sooner or later. 

The academy's sake is just an excuse he found for himself. More importantly, the old man doesn't want to die.

"Alright, I told the dean not to take action. She won't go against my words," The old man said with confidence.

"Ha...Ha...Ha..."

"I know all of that. But my problem is something else. There is a kid who has a special element in your academy."

The old man's eyes flickered. Zack Lockwood is someone who has a background. He had promised that person to take care of that kid.

"This guy?" What is he planning? The old man became nervous. 

"What?"

"You have become silent."

"I want that kid to be dead. I hope you can arrange it," the person with a strange voice said.

"No," The old man said. 

"That kid is not someone to offend. He has a background behind him. Those people are more dangerous than you," the old man added.

There was silence for a moment.

"I don't care. Even if they are from the inner post, I'm not scared. I hope you will arrange someone to kill that kid or you should forget about the forbidden liquid."

"But if you insist on protecting that kid, then your academy may fall," The person with a strange voice said.

The old man's body shuddered for a moment. Before he could speak, the call ended.

He knows the background of the person behind Zack. That person's force is a giant. To think this person is not afraid of him.

Then he realized the person with a strange voice was planning something big here. Then it's normal for his force to be strong as well.

As a supreme elder, he is caught in a dilemma. If he doesn't reply to that person. Then he may not get the black liquid.

On the other hand, the mysterious person had decided to speed up the plan. 

....

Viper City,

On the other hand, someone arrived in the city secretly. He is none other than Jonathan. After entering the city, he immediately went to Carlos Kent's place.

Shortly after, 

Carlos Kent arrived to greet him. Seeing that Jonathan nodded at him before entering inside the home.

Jonathan sat on the sofa. Carlos sat opposite to him on the chair.

"Now, tell me from the beginning," Jonathan asked.

Carlos gulped his saliva. He remembered the fierce attack of Jonathan. So he started to speak without hiding anything.

Jonathan showed no expression. But many thoughts ran in his mind. The matter of the Supreme Elder made him come here. 

He had no other choice but to confirm it. If it's true then he should take Zack back to the inner post.

While listening to Carlos. Jonathan couldn't help but think about the man behind the scenes. Earlier, he thought the man behind the scene was an outlaw from the inner post.

There is a chance for the powerful criminals to infiltrate the Outer Post, if the barrier is weak.

But looking at the situation. He thinks that the situation is not ordinary. He has to verify the information. 

A few minutes later,

Carlos Kent finished explaining everything. He couldn't help but nervously take a look at Jonathan.

His life depends on Jonathan. He hopes that Jonathan will save him. It's impossible to fight against the Supreme Elder.

On the other hand, Jonathan frowned. He didn't expect that old fox to change sides. What could make him do that?

A quick glint flashes in his eyes. Jonathan decides to see for himself. He plans to visit the Supreme Elder first. 

"Alright, you should go back to the academy and protect Zack. I'm going to confirm the news,' After saying that Jonathan left.

Carlos Kent sighed in relief. He thought that the news would shock him. But on the other hand, Jonathan was calm and composed. 

Carlos knows there is a duel today. So he decides to go back to the academy. 

...

From MC's perspective:

Time passes in a blink of an eye,

12:30 pm

Soon it's time for the duel. Then I left the room and walked out of the dorm building. 

To my surprise, Ernest was waiting outside.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I just came now," Ernest replied.

Hearing that, a faint smile appeared on my face. Then we both started walking to the arena.

Walking, I saw there were a large number of people going to the arena as well.

Many of them clicked photos upon seeing us. But we ignored it and started walking towards the destination. 

When we reached the area. We met with the Gale Faction members. Vina Potkins was there as well. 

After taking a glance at them, I turned towards Ernest.

"You are going to watch alone," I said. There aren't many warriors in the Special Faction.

"Ha...Ha...Ha..."

"This is going to be some experience," Ernest said with a laugh. 

"I don't have to say."

"You are going to win anyway," Ernest gave a thumbs up.

After speaking to him. We separated. I started walking to the registration area. While he is going to the spectator spot.

Soon, I reached the desk. Then I saw the staff taking up contract papers. It's standard procedure before any fight. 

After signing the paper, I entered the arena. The dueling stage was built at the center of the arena.

This time I came here a little early. There is still half an hour left before the duel. The crowd is starting to appear. Then I turned towards the Special Faction Area.

I saw a lone figure sitting down. He is none other than Ernest. 

Meanwhile,

The faction heads are starting to appear with their faction members. Vice-dean Franklin Madden appeared together with Kane Patrick.

The Rain Water Faction Head Alice Brown appeared together with Eurice Frye. Both the faction members stood opposite to each other.

"Elder Alice, you guys lost again," Franklin said with a smile.

A quick glint flashes in Alice Brown's eyes. She didn't respond before she started walking towards the Rain Water Faction Area.

Franklin Madden sneered before taking his members as well. Kane Patrick grinned ear to ear. He spotted Zack Lockwood in the arena.

Time passed,

On the other hand, the dean also appeared to watch the duel. A complex glint flashes in Rebecca's eyes. 

The situation at the Azure City doesn't seem to be simple. She had collected the information. The powerhouse has left the Blevins Family. 

But I don't know when the powerhouse will come back. The supreme elder also denied the permission. She was caught in a dilemma.

Meanwhile,

The Supreme Elder of the academy is watching the situation. He couldn't help but feel the urgency. He can't live without the black liquid. That's the one thing that keeps him going.
