Chapter 1543: Part 1: Vince was exposed

Hidden Chamber

I’m standing in front of the huge door. I tried to open the door. I found out there is a formation outside. I tried to use force to open it. Then I felt a sense of crisis from it.

I moved backward. I decided not to use the elemental force again. It might trigger other hidden formations.

I decided to wait for her to come back. But I don’t know what she is doing. She underestimated my talent.

...

Star University

There was silence in the camps of the Star University. The Elemental Factions are looking toward the Thunderflame Faction with hatred.

As if they are responsible for the defeat alone. Even the faces of the two Bloodline Factions are not good-looking.

Faction Leader Francesca was in disbelief. She couldn’t believe they lost the competition. According to her, the black flame warrior from the Thunderflame was strong.

But the female shadow element warrior was top-notch.

Even she was surprised by her fast dagger moves. It was the result of being more than proficient. She thinks that the female warrior had touched the limit of the Great Wheel.

The Dark Variant Faction side is also looking toward the Thunderflame Faction with an unkind gaze.

Faction Leader Vince smiled after a long time. He didn’t expect such a turnaround.

He said, "Faction Leader Clifford, your faction should take responsibility."

"You have lost the face of Star University in front of my people," he added.

Gasp!

The warriors gasped.

Faction Leader Clifford was angry. The main elders are feeling bad as well. They understood that Faction Leader Vince is using the opportunity to insult them.

Main Leader Leola suppressed the anger in her heart. She saw through the skill level of the female warrior from the Dark Shadow University.

Her skill was greater than their own warrior’s. So she was convinced of the victory. But she can’t take the insults anymore.

"Faction Leader Vince, your warriors won nothing. At least we came to the finals," she retorted.

Vince snorted. None of them spoke anymore.

Quiet!

There was silence. The Dark Shadow University won the competition.

The members of the Dark Shadow University are full of smiles. The members are looking toward the Star University Factions with a grin.

Half-Step Red Mark Warrior Big Mark thinks about the next plan. Everyone was celebrating, but he is not in the mood.

The Half-Step Red Mark Warriors from the other four groups were looking toward him. They were all waiting for his next action.

But their main elders and the members were confused right now. They didn’t know why they were not leaving yet.

Right then, the Half-Step Red Mark Warrior Big Mark spoke.

"Your Star University is weak. I don’t know why your reputation outside is so loud," he said in a condescending tone.

Gasp!

The faces of everyone changed drastically, from the Elemental Factions to the Dark Variant Faction. Everyone looked toward him with surprise.

The person had the audacity to insult them in their own territory.

The other four university groups are enjoying the drama with smiles on their faces.

Thunderflame Faction Leader Clifford felt something was wrong. Main Elders Austin, Ann, Leola, Cathy, and Rosie are on alert.

From the beginning, everyone knew something was wrong with the challenge letter. They didn’t know the real motive of the other universities.

On the other hand, the two Bloodline Faction Leaders were on their guard as well. Francesca’s eyes flashed with a cold glint.

She made the right decision to lock the hidden chamber. She realized the other forces had come here with ulterior motives.

At the same time, the Dark Variant Faction Leader Vince smiled.

He said, "Elder Mark, what do you mean by that?"

"You have just won because most of our expert warriors are stationed in the camp. If they were here, do you think you would have won?" Vince said in a cold tone.

Others didn’t expect Vince to speak all of a sudden.

Clifford felt worse. He doesn’t like where things were going.

"Humph, it’s not like your people are at the camps. We have our warriors in the camps as well," Mark replied.

"If you have someone else on the campus, you can call the person. We can have another duel. Let the winner be the true winner of the competition," Mark added.

Gasp!

A low exclamation occurred. The other university groups smiled. The Star University has taken the bait.

The Elemental Factions were confused. They are looking toward Faction Leader Vince. According to them, the Faction Leader was not that talkative.

Apart from being hostile to the Thunderflame Faction, he never acted in a way that harmed the interests of the Star University.

Though he might be saying things in support, they felt it was the opposite. As if he is helping out Elder Mark to convey his message.

"We too have an expert in our camp. He can take down your Purple Mark Expert. But he is at the Gold Mark Level right now." After saying that, he turned toward the Thunderflame Faction.

Faction Leader Clifford and the Main Elders understood everything. Their hearts boiled with anger. If not for the current situation, they would have attacked him already.

Big Mark grinned and said, "Oh, I heard there is a famous prodigy in that Thunderflame Faction of yours. Where is he right now?"

"I heard that while at the Gold Mark Level, he can fight across ranks. If he wants to participate in the competition, then he can. I’ll ask our warrior to fight at the Gold Mark Level as well," Mark said.

He finally exposed his true intentions.

"Haha... he is truly a talented warrior. But he is not from my faction. You can ask Faction Leader Clifford here," Vince said with a smile.

"Faction Leader Vince, are you out of your mind?" Faction Leader Francesca said in a threatening tone.

Hearing that, Vince was taken aback. His expression turned ugly. He didn’t expect to receive a retort from her.

Faction Leader Clifford said, "Vince, it appears you are helping Elder Mark more than our own. You have revealed your true colors."

He didn’t mince words this time. Vince’s actions touched a nerve.
