“How did they find out so quickly?” David was slightly confused as he and the Dean both walked out of the office.

“Don’t underestimate the power of the four great academies, even your Grand professor is incredibly wary of us.”

“Forget about this and go now. I will try stalling them for a while but if they figure things out, I won’t fight for you. Go now.” The Dean halted his footstep and turned towards David.

“Take this, It will allow you access to the back gate of the academy, it’s on the map.”

“I have no idea how strong you are and I’m impressed by your talents. I hope you survive this.” The Dean shook his head slightly. With that, he turned around and flew upwards, heading towards the massive undulations of mental energy that were like two mini suns rapidly closing into his academy.

David bowed his head slightly at the direction in which the Dean had taken. With that, he stood straight.

He then started to move silently towards the direction given to him on the map. He didn’t use his fastest speed since he didn’t want the two heaven experts to sense the rise in energy level once he started moving. Like a slippery snake, he slithered through the streets soundlessly.

While he didn’t use his fastest speed and only ten percent of his speed, he was like a phantom leaving numerous afterimages on the air.

Despite how large the institute was, David had reached his destination in a matter of seconds.

Holding the emblem the Dean had given him, he walked through a dilapidated corner of a street, and then he saw a blind old man seated at the front of a broken door.

David’s hardened as he gazed at the old man. The blind old man seem quite ordinary and nothing beyond that, but as David gazed at the old man with his divine sense, if those two heaven realm experts were two small raging suns, to this old man massive wave of strength, they were no different to a flickering candle!

He was on a different level compared to the heaven realm expert! M

It was no wonder they were the four great academies. He assumed the other academy were also hiding a trump card like this.

David’s speed halted. And he walked towards the man.

He hadn’t even gotten close when the old man spoke, “Show me the badge.”

David nodded his head with obedience and placed the emblem within the blind man’s palm.

The old man felt the badge with his hand for a few seconds before he then slowly raised his head up to look at David.

David’s expression changed slightly as he felt the immeasurable waves of power holding him down. David wanted to break out of it, but he knew his power burst would undoubtedly catch the attention of the Heaven realm experts outside the gates, so he endured with an expressionless face, staring at the deadpanned whitish eyes of the old man with his own.

“That kid is still too naive. Would have given you to those people and save myself this trouble.” The old man withdrew his aura and spoke with indifference.

David’s eyes twitched. This old man had called the middle-aged Dean a kid, it felt awkward.

“You can go now. And don’t come back. If you do…” The old man refused to say any longer and leaned on his stick, gazing into the distance.

David’s eyes flashed at the obvious threat. But not wanting to be ungrateful, he snorted and passed through the broken door which lead him to some sort of cave entrance.

Meanwhile, the Dean flew through the air towards the entrance of his academy.𝑵𝒐𝚟𝔢𝓛𝑵𝓮xt.𝑐𝑶𝑀

“To what do I owe this honour Dean Tang and Dean Hill?” The Dean smiled as he asked.

“Hu Zifeng, we are not here for casual chats. Bring that little bastard out and we will consider not implicating your Academy.” The words came from a beautiful mature lady, but her expression was cold as she glared at Dean Hu Zifeng.

“You dare threaten my people? In my place? Dean Hill, I’m starting to see your beauty has blinded your senses.” Hu Zifeng retorted coldly.

Dean Hill’s face flushed angrily and she wanted to reply when the other Dean spoke.

“Enough of this! Hu Zifeng, we didn’t come here to fight you and I’m sure you know why we are here. Bring that boy David to us and we will forget this matter ever happened.” Dean Tang’s words sounded polite, but the threat in his tone was crystal clear.

“Tang Ming, I have no idea why you guys are here, why don’t you enlighten me as to why the Dean of Sundering Sky and the Glacier Palace are doing very close to my academy threatening me and that, without a single explanation!” Hu Zifeng’s tone was turning colder by the second.

Tang Ming expression turn cold and he glared at Hu Zifeng coldly. “Do you truly want to do this? The Green leaf Valley’s Dean is also in his way here.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” The Dean remained steadfast with his opinion even after hearing the third Dean of the four great academies is on his way here.

“Fine then, let me grease your memory.” Tang Ming nodded as he said while Dean Hill gritted her teeth. Her personal and close disciple Su Ming had died from that little bastard’s hands, how could she not be angered.

‘I can only give you so much time, the rest is up to you.’ The Dean muttered and with that, he proceeded to ‘listen’ to the entire situation with fake expressions of surprise.

A few seconds later, David burst out from an underground cave a few thousand kilometers from the academy.

He breathed out roughly and brought out the map from within his storage ring. Memorising the entire route, he placed it back inside, turned towards a direction and burst out with his fastest speed.

The ground cracked and David turned into a land meteor, breaking sound and air resistance with his body alone.

At the same time, Flint seem to have been tired of being couped up within his storage ring as it burst out and started to race behind him.

What was shocking was that Flint was only a step behind him, it’s speed wasn’t any slower than David’s . David was slightly shocked. Flint was even stronger than before. “I guess all those resources weren’t for nothing.”

Their speed was so fast it was like the world was slowing down to them. The feeling of the wind slamming against him, tickled his skin, escalating the pleasure he was feeling making him smile.

Within the blink of an eye, he had transversed another several kilometers. Going further into the deep into the land.

He had long left the academy behind and was now moving according to the route the Sky Cruiser would take.

Suddenly, David halted to a stop, it was as though time had frozen and his speed suddenly halted, as though being nailed to the ground.

Flint was surprised, but it’s claws dragged against the ground, digging deep crevices as it also halted to a stop.

It glanced at David and released an annoyed roar, but David was not in the mood for its tantrum.

He stared at a particular direction with an intense glare. His eyes pierced through numerous layers of resistance through the cloud gazing upwards.

Flint blinked its crimson eyes and stared at the clouds also, but then its expression turned ferocious, as it growled loudly.

There within the clouds, an old man stood in the air with his arms folded behind him, staring down at David with a condescending and disdainful expression.

“We assumed the back entrance would be within a few kilometers around this place, I wouldn’t have expected to be right.” The old man glanced around.

“I guess you will tell me exactly where the entrance is. But first, I will need to capture you.”

Slowly, the old man descended from the sky and landed a few kilometers away from David. It was the Dean of Green leaf Mountain academy, Old man Liu Yin.

Hearing the old man’s words, David frowned slightly. “How did you know I will be here?”

“It’s no use telling you, but since you’re going to spend your remaining life in misery and in torture, I suppose it is alright if I told you.” The old man started walking forwards, his single step took him a hundred meters forwards.

“The plan was actually very simple, the two other Dean’s are to distract Hu Zifeng while I scout this place. If I couldn’t find you, it means you’re still within the academy, but since you are not really a student of the academy, or of this continent, Hu Zifeng wouldn’t be wrong if he chose not to protect you at all but knowing Hu Zifeng, he will surely protect you, but not by much.”

“Moreover, when I capture you, and I acquire the location of the academy’s back entrance, destroying that academy shouldn’t be much of a problem.”

As the old man spoke, his speed got even faster, and in the blink of an eye, he was a within a hundred meter of David.

“You used me?” David’s expression turned sour.

“Don’t say such crude word. I didn’t use you, you helped me. So stay still and let yourself be captured.”

The wind exploded into a screeching sound as the old man’s fingers curled into a hook shape as he reached to grab for David’s shoulders.

David appeared to be frozen as though he had been scared stiff. Seeing this, the old man smiled. As expected, David was still a kid. No matter how bold he claimed he was, he was still a child within.

Bam!

His hand locked onto David’s shoulder. Threads of mental energy escaped his hands, penetrating into David’s body, locking David’s movements.

And he said with a smile , “Don’t struggle.”

But within a split second, the old man was shocked.

David’s shoulder suddenly trembled, the old man’s eyes opened wide and a bad feeling erupted within him.

Boom!

The man’s hand suddenly exploded, and under his shocked gaze, his body trembled and then cracks appeared all over his body. All of a sudden, his body exploded into a bloody mist, fading into the wind.

Flint was surprised. The man had released a massive amount of threat, but David had taken care of him so easily.

But David’s expression didn’t change by much. His body released multitudes of popping sounds and his muscles trembled.

“You escaped very quickly.” David scorned as he gazed back at the sky.

Within that same cloud, the old man floated silently, his expression was serious and cold.. He no longer dared to underestimate David.
