Ancient Tears BloodLine

I immediately headed to Mr. Arthur\'s cabin after stepping inside the campus. I can see students were having their training. Some were talking among their groups and some were standing in queue to use gravity camber.

Seeing the normal atmosphere of Hansen Campus, I feel relaxed. Looks like they don\'t know about my return to Hansen campus. After walking a few steps, I reached Mr. Arthur\'s cabin.

"Creak" The door slid open.

Like always Mr. Arthur is working behind the desk. Seeing me coming he gestures to me to take a seat. I nodded and sat comfortably in the chair.

I saw him bringing so much stuff out of his storage ring. I know these were the resources that I asked for. All of them were enclosed in a metallic case in order to preserve them.

There were 10 metallic cases placed on the desk. Mr. Arthur smiled triumphantly looking at them. "While you are busy in Star Tower, I took that time to collect remaining resources with the permission of Elder Thornton." Mr. Arthur said with a smile.

Then he added, "Here is the list, take back with you. And don\'t forget to increase your strength before fighting against Class 3 Monsters"

My eyes gleamed with delight looking at them. Hearing his Mr. Arthur\'s words I affirmed, "Don\'t worry, Mr. Arthur. Before Elder Thornton comes back with Class 3 Monsters. I would have already increased my strength."

Mr. Arthur doesn\'t know that I\'m going to achieve a breakthrough today. I would have told him if it was an essence cultivation technique. But unfortunately it\'s my physique.

After glancing at the 10 metallic cases for a moment, I placed all of them in my storage ring. I sighed in relief after getting all the resources from the treasure list. How long has it been since I\'ve been longing to get all the resources in my hand? I believe it\'s from day 1 of the Seed Challenge.

"Sigh"

"By the way, Mr. Arthur. How is your health these days?" I asked while observing his physique. His complexion looks better than usual.

Mr. Arthur smiled and said, "I\'m fine, It\'s been a month since that incident. Now, there is no worry. I recovered completely."

Then we talked about a few more things before I left his cabin and headed straight towards the essence filled chamber.

"It\'s been so long..." I muttered as I stepped inside the essence filled chamber room.

Suddenly, I saw someone opening the essence filled chamber next to mine.

"Maria?" I said.

Hearing my words that person looked back at me.

"Zack, is it you?" Maria\'s eyes popped out in surprise, She asked back by covering her little mouth.

While smiling I slowly walked towards her and answered, "I just came back two days ago. And what are you upto these days?"

I can see her strength has increased since I saw her last time. She broke through, Her strength is of Peak of Trainee Apprentice Warrior.

Unlike me, Her Elemental resources are not scarce around this region. So as long as she gets steady resources in her hands she will achieve breakthroughs.

While I\'m busy observing her, Maria came back to her senses after confirming it\'s really Zack. Hearing Zack\'s words, instead of getting shy or timid. A fighting intent rose in her heart, she knows about Zacks rank in the LeaderBoard.

Right Now, Zack is famous around the region. He has been given the title of young genius. Which is recognised by various forces and news sites. She herself wants to do well and wants to get placed in a good academy. Her father had already asked his few contacts and successfully got a quota for her.

So she is sure about her future. But she doesn\'t know about Zack. But she knows after his Star Tower Performance, He will definitely be noticed by academy people. And also she doesn\'t know how strong Zack is right now. With a little bit of hesitation she asked, "Zack, I want to ask you something?"

"Hmmm, Go ahead." I said.

Maria asked, "What is your actual strength right now?" After saying that she looked straight into his eyes.

Since everyone would have probably guessed after my performance at the Star Tower Power. I don\'t think it\'s necessary to hide from her. So I replied, "Initial- Special Trainee"

Maira was shocked inside her heart when she heard from his mouth. This was the same as her father\'s prediction at that time. But she didn\'t believe it. She remembers the day when both of them were just rookie. At that time, Zack is not the strongest one, instead her friend. Remembering her a gloomy feeling rose in her heart, but she quickly recovered herself.

"Oh, You broke through. Then I guess I have to cultivate hard as well." Maria said with a small smile.

I raised my eyebrows hearing her full voice. But I didn\'t inquire about it , instead I asked, "You never answered my question. What are you going to do next? Are you going to stay in this city forever?"

I heard her clan is good. I don\'t think they will let her stay in the Red Stone City forever.

Maria commented, "About that, I will join some academy. I\'m not sure which academy it is. " Then she raised her head and asked Zack, "What about you?"

"I don\'t know ? I\'ll decide after the Crimson Hall Event." I lied to her. If I told her that I will join Saw Scale Viper Academy. There are chances that it will influence her decision. I want nature to take its course. Since everyone has their own journey to experience, It\'s better not to influence anyone.

Talking about Crimson Hall, nothing good comes to Maria\'s mind. She remembers her father and butler seems to be wary about the Crimson Hall. She herself knows one or two things about them. That\'s why her father didn\'t allow her to be a Seed Candidate in the first place.

She sighed thinking that and looking at Zack she reminded, "Zack, Crimson Hall people were not good. They normally target anyone who disagrees with them. Now that you are in the limelight and ranking top well above their students in the LeaderBoard. They won\'t digest it and will surely plan something to harm you . So you better take care of yourself."
