Chapter 205 - Maria's Determination

Hearing her voice, I'm literally stunned, "How does she know?" I'm literally confused. It's impossible to spy on me. Having perceptual ability, I can easily found the traces of unkind eyes on me. So, I immediately calm down my heart.

I asked, " How do you know?"

The other hand, Maria Frazier breathed in relax, " Everyone knew about your participation in our Red Stone City"

"What?" I blurted out in surprise.

How come entire city knows? For a moment, my brain froze for a moment. I didn't reply for a moment.

Suddenly, the announcement came.

My Train is on the way, it will arrive in ten minutes.

Seeing Zack is bit confused, Maria Frazier let out a small laughter on the other hand. She immediately commented, "Zack, Why so serious?" Then she continued, " Star tower released notification yesterday night itself. I tried to call you yesterday. But you are unreachable. "

Hearing that I'm stunned. No way, I usually avoid limelight. This will be troublesome then, because I noticed, few people who doesn't have much calculation base than me. Trying to take few photos of me. I twitched slightly, they must be some reported.

Now onwards, they begin to gossip even further. What to do? I shook my head in frustration. Let's do some ordinary performance. Basic enough to admire, not more dazzling so that they can't kill me.

After sorting out my thought, I remember she is still on the line. "I slept early yesterday. So, I didn't notice your call." Then I continued, "So, Why do you call me?"

She won't call me unless something important, she knows my character. The other hand hearing my question. Maria Frazier's smile froze, she knew Zack don't like idle talking. She answered in annoyed tone, "As you know the participant list is publicized. There are also participants from other cities. Especially from Crimson Hall. You must take care of yourself. Some mat intentionally seek trouble."

Hearing that I smiled and answered, " Oh, I didn't know that this kind of stuff. Thank you for your concern. I'll act in a low key manner even more."

The other hand, Maria Frazier finally reveals a smile on her cold face.

Then I thought about something, I don't know whether she knows or not. Let's try ask her, it would be useful if she actually knows some inner details.

"Maria, Do you have any idea of the content of challenge? I said with a smile.

"No, Every time the content would be different. Its useless to know. But looking at your performance in life or death challenge. I believe you can easily deal with basic challenge." Maria said in a solemn tone.

Hearing that I sighed, I knew there will be some kind of abacus. Otherwise, Uncle would have told me in advance. After realizing that, I said, "Then its fine Maria, I'll talk to you later. My train is on the way."

"Okay, Zack" Maria uttered.

Then we ended the call.

Just as I ended the call, I heard train sound. A long special class passenger train arrives at the moment. Seeing that I became ready and waited for the train to come to halt.

A moment later, train stopped to receive passengers. Then without side glancing at the reporters. I boarded the compartment.

The other hand, the reporters stopped taking pictures. Then they went back to their companies to publish the tomorrow's news.

'¦

The other hand, Frazier's family.

After the call, Maria looked at the blue sky through window. She began to ponder deeply.

In front of her, the family butler stood politely. All the information about the star tower is collected by him. As per miss order he did it immediately. But he was confused, he doesn't believe it's worth her effort.

The butler asked, "Young Miss, Why are you helping that kid named Zack. Isn't he is your competitor?" He knew before the seed candidate selection, selected through life or death duel. Young Miss interested in participated in that selection. But all of it was grabbed by that kid.

Hearing butler's words, Maria dazed for a little. She came back to reality. She observed the question for a moment. But she don't know how to answer it. She looked at the butler and said, "I'm betting on him. If he reach some high level in future. Having good relationship with will be good for the family. So, it doesn't bad to make friendship with strong people"

Hearing that Butler understood her meaning, Young miss is betting on his future. He nodded at her in understanding.

To that Maria gesture him to leave now. Then the butler left her room politely.

But the other hand, Maria began to contemplate even further. Before joining the Hansen campus, she worried about she will be constant limelight, due to heir of Frazier clan. But nothing happen like that, from initial classmates, three of them promoted to advanced class. All three of them were different.

She spent most of her training inside her clan. She rarely goes to campus. The other hand, Candace her only female good friend went back to her family. She misses her deeply, she was a good sparring partner. She sighed thinking about her. She tried numerous ways to contact her and collect details about the family. But the result was not. Couldn't able to collect to any intel.

Only Zack is the regular in her set. Yet he only focuses on his cultivation. He doesn't seems to be fond making any connections. He means business. She doesn't know whether her bet was good or not. Hope he won't turn his back when he reaches higher level. She already understood his attitude from this call now.

The other hand she is not pushover. She clenched her fists determination. Normally male would inherit the family, but too inherit her family as a female warrior. She needs strength to back it. She also has good ambition further develop her clan. That's why he seeks to form good relationship with Zack.

She notices some changes around the people he has been dealing with. Earlier she thought he would be goner, when he killed Elder Jensen's grandson. But the turn around events happened aftermath of that match made her baffled. Even today, Zack came as winner from all the life or death duel challenge. Thinking about that it's already an amazing feat.

From her father, she knew that Zack got good backing from the management. Its hard to get support from elders of the management without any benefits. She knew about Zack's background. He is an adopted kid of James Lockwood. From such a background, he did pretty good for himself. Which in return motivates her to cultivate hard and became stronger for herself and family, with her family's background. She just have to persist on the round.

'¦

The other hand, Star tower participants list attracted the nearby cities. Usually for every fifty cities in the surroundings had start tower in them to encourage the budding talents. So, its usual to have some attention but its limited to scope of these fifty city. Because there are multiple star tower in other areas. So, it's not heaven defying event. Its an opportunity for budding talents to have feather on their caps. Since, it's their first step towards the future ascension.

Like, Marian Frazier predicted, the participant list was viewed by Crimson Hall officials.

In a main department head room, a small discussion is going on.

"Head Master, Looks like that little fellow from Hansen campus is going to participate in that event." An assistant staff informed in a solemn tone.

Hearing that Head Master looked at his assistant in somewhat confusion.

"What happened? Didn't they released the statement sometime ago saying that someone attacked their campus." The Headmaster Wells said with a serious tone.

He clearly remembered, that matter caused him quite a headache. Every forces around here believed it was their doing. When he heard that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that time. He doesn't know what happened to Hansen people now. "They are stupid or what?" He thought to himself.

The other hand, the assistant immediately collected her thoughts. And handed over the customized report of their organisation. It was done by intel team, it not only included their name but their abilities, talent and current cultivation level.

But most of them were speculated abilities based upon some events. The assistant, she now only saw Zack's name. She is surprised then only she informed the head master wells.

The other hand, Head Master wells began to go through the report. He first glanced at Zack's details, as most of the details were empty. Seeing that he couldn't help but frowns. "How come a little organisation is keeping their secrecy so tight?" He said with a little frustration.

The other hand, her assistant don't know what to comment it's not her department anyway.

The other hand, Head master wells let out a huge sigh. Then he began to read other participant's details. As it's impossible to know about Zack's qualifications. He doesn't want to dwell on this matter.

As he began to read through the report. He began to make strong challengers on this list. Like others their Crimson Hall also have a challenger of their own. He wants to see, if there is any threat?
