Chapter 105: Weird Final Round, Astounding Result.

" You might find the final round unfair, But this is the method arranged by one of the Ancestors. Even if you are not in the top 10, You will gain benefits, so nobody needs to feel disheartened for not being selected. "

" Now follow me. "

The 50 students were bewildered after hearing about the details of the Final Round, but they still followed the middle-aged man who appeared in front of them after they descended.

While following, Athan thought, ' I wonder if I will be selected by that method? Up until now, My training has been a bit different than normal people's. '

But he felt that there was no use thinking about it, so he just followed the middle-aged man along with other students while seeing the scenery around them.

After arriving here, Athan's energy Seas became full in just two minutes. The atmosphere looked like one was in heaven to the how-to energize one feels just by breathing the air here.

The ground was filled with patches of grass, and there were no trees or plants seen around.

After they walked for a while, The middle-aged man stopped and pointed his hand at the ground.

A flash appeared, and the ground started to tremble before they all descended with the ground and appeared in an underground cave.

*Woahhh*

The students were surprised to see the scenery in the underground.

The cave was vast, and the most eye-catching things were colorful lights that were flying around.

" Follow me. "

The students snapped out of their reverie and followed the middle-aged to a path inside the cave.

After walking for a while, They arrived in what seemed like a hall, and in the middle of the hall was a throne that was surrounded by a border made from some kind of materials.

The middle-aged man looked at everyone and said, " After I call out your name, Move forward and stand in front of the throne. "

After saying this, The man started walking towards the throne.

Athan saw that the man stopped before standing in front of their throne and did something with his hand before bowing.

Right at that moment, A slight tremor spread across the cave, and a blinding light appeared.

The source of that light was the throne.

After a few seconds, everyone could see clearly.

Athan looked in the front and saw someone sitting on the throne.

That being didn't seem to have any flesh, and it looked like it was formed from energy because of the glow excluded by him/her.

The being's gender could not be recognized due to the colorful lights of energies dancing around his/her.

The middle-aged man who had already returned to where the students were standing spoke, " Athan. "

Hearing his name being called out, Athan started moving towards the throne with nervousness.

But while he was walking, The black whirlpool inside him suddenly released a dense amount of black clouds as they wrapped around his energy seas, crystals, and whole mystic realm.

Inside the black Whirpool, Mimi snorted cutely and muttered, " humph, Guardian Brother doesn't require testing and strengthening from the likes of you. "

Outside, Athan noticed the changes inside his body, but he couldn't do anything now.

He soon arrived in front of the throne and finally saw the face of the being.

' WTF.....' He tried his best not to change his expression and just stood there.

This being had no human face and instead had a face that resembled a human and animal mix. It had a pointy nose which looks weird, but the ears were white and looked fluffy. There was also a slight white fur on both sides of his cheeks.

After a second, The colorful lights surrounded Athan, and he felt as if countless ants were crawling over him.

This went on for five seconds before the lights returned to the being.

Seeing this, The middle-aged man's expression changed for the time as a surprised expression that was filled with confusion appeared on his face.

Athan returned upon hearing the middle-aged man's voice, and he called out Avelia's name next.

In Avelia's case, The colorful lights surrounded her for whole 10 minutes before they returned to the being.

He was a bit surprised, but when he saw that other students also stayed for a long time wrapped around by the colorful lights, A doubt sprouted inside him, ' Could it be due to the black whirlpool? what did it do? '

He had a bad feeling about this, but he suppressed them and waited for the result.

The middle-aged man said that They would be tested according to the method arranged by one of the ancestors, but they were not provided any details about how they would be tested.

Finally, the last student also returned, and the being that appeared on the throne disappeared along with the colorful lights.

The middle-aged man went to the Throne and picked up a white tablet made from rocks before saying.

Ten student's facial features were drawn on the tablet.

" I will now call out the names of the 10 students who will be allowed to train in the blessed land for 1 month while those who are not selected can also train for a month in this Legendary Sector. During this month, You are free to move anywhere you want. You might even get lucky and encounter good fortune. "

Everyone became nervous hearing him as they were still bewildered on how the top 10 students will be selected.

They also remembered what he said before arriving here, That they might find this round a bit unfair.

The middle-aged man then called out names.

" Avelia "

" Yahan "

" Ruthren "

" Kinessa "

" Remo "

" Qinji "

" Uresuel "

" Gerato "

" Inklem "

" And...."

All students whose names were not called out held their breath and prayed that the last name was theirs.

Athan shook his head and smiled bitterly as he knew that his name would not appear and indeed...

" Catherin "

Avelia was most stunned as she couldn't believe that Athan's name was not called out.

She hesitated for a second but decided to speak up, " Could there be any mistake in the results? "

Hearing her, The middle-aged man frowned and looked at her before speaking, " There is definitely no mistake in the results. The being that appeared just now tested your natural talent and potential and also strengthened your foundation before choosing the ten students. "

She was going to speak again but noticed Athan looking at her while shaking his head with a faint smile.

Avelia turned silent for a second, but she spoke with a resolute face, " I would like to give my spot to someone else. "

" Not possible, Only chosen students can practice in the blessed land. "

The middle-aged cruelly refused with a cold voice.

Athan frowned and spoke towards Avelia, " Avelia, You don't need to worry about me. " Pausing here, A confident smile appeared on his face, and he said, " Do you think I won't reach the top if I don't practice in blessed land? I thought you knew me already. "

Avelia was stunned hearing that before a wry smile formed on her face, " Indeed, You will surpass us in these six months even if you just practice anywhere. "

Hearing her words, The students were speechless.

One of the top ten students who looked like a middle-aged man snorted and said, " Now that's some big talk. If you want to praise your boyfriend, then do it at home. It sounds bull shit if you speak such ridiculous things in front of everyone. "

Some students started laughing as they also felt that what Avelia said was too ridiculous.

The middle-aged suddenly interjected them in a loud voice, " The ten of you, Stay here while I escort these forty students to the surface. "

Avelia and others nodded as the middle-aged man led the group of forty students to the surface.

...

After returning to the surface, The middle-aged man said, " The forty of you can move anywhere and can either practice or just roam the lands. You also don't have to worry about danger here, and as I said, You might also encounter some good fortune, so Good luck. "

He then returned while the forty students started to scatter in different directions with excited faces.

Even though they didn't win the seat in the top 10, They were still allowed to stay in Legendary Sector.

Athan also flew away in a random direction.

He was indeed disappointed that he was not selected, and it was due to the black whirlpool.

' Sigh...What's the deal with this black whirlpool? '

Shortly after flying in the same direction, He saw actually spotted a small grass hut.

" Ehh...Could someone be living here? "

With curiosity on his face, Athan descended and observed the hut.

He spread his Mystic Force there to sense if there was something, but he didn't sense anything.

Though for some reason, His mystic force could not go inside the hut.

" Should I go in or not? "

Athan muttered and fell into thought.

After a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought, ' Wait, Could it be one of the good fortune mentioned by that middle-aged man? '

With slight nervousness, He started walking towards the hut...
