Saw Scale Viper Academy:
Dean Office,
Franklin Madden entered the Dean's office. Dean Rebecca noticed his presence. She lifted her head and said: "Is everything alright?"
Franklin said with a grave face,"This time they have sent Elder Red to protect them."
Rebecca's eyes flickered with a slight glint. She said, "Don't worry, he won't attack Zack directly. He knows Zack is not without protection. They can only deal with him during the duel."
Franklin was quite surprised. He asked, "Dean, did he agree to participate?"
Rebecca nodded her head. Then she said,"You select a few warriors and let them participate in tomorrow's duel."
Franklin asked, "What about Zack?"
"He will appear last. Don't let them know about Zack's whereabouts." The red elder is quite a tricky person," She said in a solemn tone.
Then after some discussion, he left the cabin.
Meanwhile,
The red elder sent one of the Giant Tower's warriors to interact with the students. The plan was to buy Zack information from them.
But they didn't not that Zack had a special status in the academy. And for the past few days, he has been staying low-key. No one knows about his situation.
Only the Special Element Warriors were aware that Zack was staying in his room all day long.
Time passed,
The Giant Tower warrior met with many students from different factions. But he wasn't able to find the necessary information. So he helplessly returned to the guest room.
Seeing his appearance, the group leader Ron was the first to ask.
"What happened, Did you succeed?"He asked.
The warrior briefed the overall situation. Everyone was surprised to hear about the internal situation, including the Red Elder.
Ron muttered, "I never expected him to be such a low-key person."
"But the report says he was high profile back in the competition."
Ron doesn't know what to say for a while. Their attempt to collect information met with failure.
The red elder frowned. He knows more about the academy than the students. Looking toward everyone, he said, "It's possible that he is staying in the Special Faction Room, or he has gone somewhere right now."
Ron's face turned gloomy. If the targeted person is in the academy, then it's okay. They can come up with some other plan.
But if the person is not all in the academy, then their overall purpose is going to be wasted. They came here to kill the target, not share knowledge with each other.
Ron turned toward Red Elder and said,"Elder, you should contact the Head. We can't simply waste our time here. The Head may give us a new direction."
Red Elder nodded his head. He too feels the situation is tricky. Then he contacted the Head of the Giant Tower to discuss.
When the call was connected. Two of them begin to discuss. After a few minutes, Red Elder's eyes turned cold.
The head's suggestion brought him huge danger. The head ordered him to kill that kid if possible. But how is it going to be easy? Even the Dean knows it is quite impossible. But he dares to propose this method.
Shaking his head, he said to everyone,"The Head instructed us to propose the challenge to the kid. Let's see whether he will appear tomorrow or not."
"If he is really outside, then it can't be helped. He might be killed by others," he added further.
Hearing that everyone revealed different reactions.
Ron is not stupid. This is the only way. If not successful, at least it can embarrass the Saw Scale Viper Academy.
Then he agreed with the method and told Red Elder to release the challenge post. The red elder didn't waste any more time, he quickly sent the official post in the name of the Giant Tower.
A few minutes later,
Dean Rebecca saw the post sent by the Red Elder. The Giant Tower's student wants to challenge Zack Lockwood.
Her eyes burst out with a cold glint. She thought they would challenge Zack tomorrow. But the challenge post at this time shocked her.
Suddenly, she remembers something. She quickly accessed the page of Giant Tower. Then she saw the challenge post was uploaded on the site of the Giant Tower as well.
So it's necessary to pay attention to the challenge. Otherwise, the outside world would laugh at them. "What a cunning calculation by this Giant Tower?" She muttered to herself.
She can already imagine the other 4 academies already looking forward to the duel. She let out a deep sigh. At this moment, she has no other choice but to let Zack participate tomorrow.
Franklin Madden also saw the post. His face was ugly for a different reason. He can understand that this was their plan to kill Zack. But he was upset they completely ignore the Flame Faction's existence.
And the Dean instructed him to send qualified warriors. And most of the qualified warriors in the Flame Faction. He feels like his students were nothing but cannon fodder.
He suddenly sent instructions to all the flame faction members to assemble in the common hall.
On the other hand, the challenge post quickly sent shockwaves across the academy. All four grade institutions were in an uproar because of the post.
This challenging post was nothing like before. Because the challenge was against a single warrior. [Zack Lockwood]
The name Zack Lockwood is quite famous in the A-grade institute. But because of the challenge post, the name started to attract attention in other grade institutes as well.
Soon the social media site of the academy flooded with posts about the challenge post. And most of the posts were uploaded by Flame Faction members targeting the Giant Faction members.
They came here for student exchange, not for a challenge duel.
...
Giant Tower,
The Giant Tower Head saw the reactions of the challenge post. The elders quickly called him for the meeting.
Because issuing the challenge post was his personal decision. The group of elders must be shocked by this news. A wry smile appeared on his face.
Anyway, it has been done, there was no point in retracting. At first, he was shocked to know that the kid might not be in the academy.
Fortunately, Red Elder gave him the heads up. That's how he came up with a quick plan. Now he wants to see the reaction of the Saw Scale Viper Academy.
Even that brat is staying outside. He has no other choice other than to show up tomorrow to save the academy's face.
Thinking about his clever plan. He wore a wide grin on his face.
...
The Red Moon Tower,
"Challenge Post," Teresa York uttered in surprise.
She has just received the information. After reading the post, she raised her eyebrows. The Giant Tower's post surprised her.
She knows that the Giant Tower has more hostile relations with the Federation than the Red Moon Tower.
And the Saw Scale Viper Academy comes under the Federation. The Giant Tower uses every opportunity to attack them. Now they have made a move.
She is looking forward to seeing what the brat is going to do tomorrow.
Meanwhile,
The news was also heard by Sallie Mills and Ella Downs. Unlike last time, they showed mixed reactions. They didn't forget the destruction of Crimson Hall. Some of their family members were displayed.
Thanks to the Red Moon Tower's statements. They are not being chased and killed.
"What to do?"Ella asked.
Sallie replied,"We should distance ourselves from him."
Ella looked at her in surprise. The relationship between Zack and them is not so close. At the same time, there was no enmity.
Sallie saw a doubtful reaction from Ella. She added further, "Crimson Hall is gone. Now we are members of the Red Moon Tower."
"And we don't know the relationship between the Red Moon Tower and the Army Federation. At least I can see that they are not allies. So next time, if we meet him. We are enemies."
Ella lowered her head and remained silent. She can't forget the days of the Star Tower Trial. Now they can only wait and watch where the future goes.
...
The Eclipse Academy,
Killing intent flashes in Harvey's eyes. When he came to know about the challenge post, a few days ago, he asked Eduard about their plan.
But that guy refused to reveal the details. But now he sees the challenge post as a killing post. He is not stupid. He thinks the Giant Tower wants to use this opportunity to kill the lightning kid.
"Hateful," he can't forget the humiliation he suffered on that day. He can only pay back by tearing that kid. But, unfortunately, the Giant Tower took the lead. He hopes that kid will survive in the end.
Only in that way, that kid can die under the hands of the Eclipse Academy.
....
The White Palace,
Maria Frazier is currently practicing water techniques. Fortunately, Autumn Holt was assigned to her as a teacher. Because of that, her progress was going on smoothly.
Beep!
Suddenly, her watch lit up with a notification.
Seeing that, she stopped practicing and views the message. It was from her teacher. There was some link inserted in the message.
In curiosity, she accessed the link. The Giant Tower's page comes up first. When she scrolls down the page to see. A name caught her attention.
