Ti flew by, and when Charles opened his eyes again, it was already deep into the night.
He felt incredibly comfortable, as if every muscle and bone in his body had been enhanced, and he didn't need any ti to adapt, upon opening his eyes, he was in perfect condition!
"My physical condition now easily surpasses that of an average Level 5 Beast Master, there's no doubt about it." Charles said, clenching his fists and feeling the strength in his hands.
His Beast Master level hadn't seen a significant increase, as [The Ice and Fire Lotus] primarily targeted the physical aspects of a Beast Master, enhancing strength, defense, and speed.
He was exceptionally pleased with the gains from this [Eye of Ice and Fire] experience, not only had he fulfilled his agreent with Cecilia from the [Dawn] organization, but he had also gained the opportunity to enter [The Ice and Fire Lotus] and improve his physical attributes!
He also harvested more than a dozen [Ice Spirit Flowers], which could sell for quite a bit of gold.
Charles slowly stood up and stretched his body.
He walked out of [The Ice and Fire Lotus], and the once dazzling red and blue glow of [The Ice and Fire Lotus] instantly dimd after he left.
It was as if its life force had been completely drained, [The Ice and Fire Lotus] rapidly withered away.
"Let's go, everyone is waiting for you." Jamie's voice ca from above, as he had been watching over Charles the entire ti.
Charles rolled his neck, stretched his body, nodded, and then was led away by Jamie from the [Eye of Ice and Fire].
At the outskirts of the [Eye of Ice and Fire],
It was already deep into the night, and the moon hung high in the sky, while the blue and red glow of the [Eye of Ice and Fire] had dimd significantly.
The Beast Masters of the Stellar Empire had long since departed, leaving only the young Beast Masters from Genosha, all of them present.
The Genosha Beast Master strears, who had been broadcasting the entire evening, were still there as well.
"Look! Charles is back!" soone shouted, pointing at the sky, and instantly everyone looked up.
Jamie slowly descended from the air with Charles, and as he looked at the young boys in front of him, he spoke softly:
"Alright, the [Eye of Ice and Fire] event has co to an end, and you all perford very well. Tonight, go back to the town and rest well. Tomorrow morning, we'll head back to Genosha Calivia."
Upon hearing Jamie's words, the boys remained still, their eyes wide open as they gazed at Charles, who was standing behind Jamie.
Jamie smiled slightly and said with a hint of helplessness:
"I know you don't want to hear what I'm saying right now. You want Charles to say a few words, right? Alright, Charles, why don't you say a few words?"
After Jamie finished speaking, he quietly stepped back a couple of paces, positioning himself behind Charles.
The moon in the sky was very bright, and the scattered moonlight illuminated the eyes of every Genosha young Beast Master, all eyes now fixed on Charles, waiting expectantly.
Charles took a deep breath, he didn't particularly enjoy this feeling, as it felt sowhat strange to him.
However, since everyone wanted to hear him speak, he felt he had to say sothing.
"Honestly, I don't have any concluding remarks to make, like you, this is my first ti experiencing sothing like this." Charles began.
Upon hearing this, the young Genosha Beast Masters broke into grins.
Charles paused for a mont and continued, "If I really must say sothing, I want to share my innermost thoughts."
At his words, everyone present fell silent, slowing their breaths, afraid of disturbing those behind them.
"What I want to say is that everyone perford excellently today! Countless people from Genosha witnessed our performance today, including our family, friends, and classmates. I believe that one day, the light we emit will shine brighter than the sun!" Charles said earnestly.
This was truly his inner thought, especially as he looked into those bright eyes.
"That's right! We all can!" soone shouted in response.
"Charles, the next ti sothing like this happens, I want to follow you!"
"Exactly! The competition between Genosha and Kingston is coming up soon, Charles, you are our hope!"
"Charles!"
"Charles!"
More and more people, with smiles on their faces, excitedly called out Charles's na.
Seeing the genuine emotions reflected on the youthful faces around him, Charles found himself getting caught up in the mont.
"This feeling of being admired, being watched, being believed in, and being needed really feels quite nice." Charles thought to himself.
Jamie's smile grew even brighter, this was exactly the scene he wanted to see. After this [Eye of Ice and Fire] event, there was no doubt that Charles had beco the leader of the young geniuses of Genosha!
"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should head back and get so rest." Jamie said slowly.
Yet, no one moved, everyone remained in place, their gazes subconsciously fixed on Charles.
Charles paused for a mont, quickly understanding the situation. He took a deep breath and began to walk slowly toward the town.
Seeing Charles move, the young geniuses from Genosha finally began to follow suit, stepping in unison behind him.
The moon illuminated everything, and the silent admiration of the boys, their eyes on Charles, was captured by the live-streaming caras present.
In the live stream,
countless viewers from Genosha watched in awe at this scene.
"I don't even know how to describe it, Charles's charisma has captivated everyone."
"These boys used to be unruly, only Charles could make them act like this."
"That's right, I have to admit, even my lady Luna can't asure up to what Charles has accomplished."
"If a war really breaks out between Genosha and Kingston, I would follow in Charles's footsteps without hesitation and join the fight!"
"I would too!"
"And , I wouldn't hesitate for a second!"
...
A true leader has limitless charm. After the [Eye of Ice and Fire] event, Charles had undeniably beco a real leader in the hearts of the young geniuses of Genosha.
The journey back wasn't long.
Although it was deep into the night, the moon was bright, and with the excellent night vision of the Beast Masters, they made good ti.
Before long, under Charles's leadership, they arrived not far from the town.
The bright lights instantly caught everyone's eyes. They saw the townsfolk holding lanterns, lining the road on both sides, cheering enthusiastically:
"Well done, boys!"
"Seeing the Stellar Empire's defeat is so satisfying!"
"You've worked hard for so long, you must be hungry. Here are so fresh donuts I just made, co and try them!"
"And I just baked so strawberry pies, you should give them a taste, they're delicious!"
Faced with the warm welco from the townspeople, the young Genosha boys were montarily at a loss for what to do.
To be honest, they had expended a lot of energy during the event, and the food they had for dinner had long been digested. Seeing the steaming strawberry pies and various donuts made many of them swallow hard, their stomachs growling.
Charles turned to look at Jamie Dean, who said with a hint of exasperation:
"Go ahead and eat if you want, the academy will compensate these residents with money, but no alcohol is allowed. We'll be leaving in the morning."
Upon hearing Jamie's words, the boys imdiately cheered and quickly ran toward the townspeople.
The residents on both sides of the road shouted, "Slow down! We've made plenty, everyone will get so!"
"What monetary compensation? It's just so food and drink, we can't let our heroes go hungry!"
"Exactly! If it's about money, then that's looking down on us!"
"This is our gratitude, those Beast Masters from the Stellar Empire have bullied the townsfolk enough."
While Charles stood still, three or four townspeople approached him, carrying various steaming hot foods.
...
After filling their bellies, the boys returned to the hotel where they were staying.
Even the physical exhaustion couldn't dampen their excitent as they discussed everything that had happened that day.
"This is the first ti I've been treated like this, being a hero feels really great!"
" too! I never thought there would be a day when so many people would appreciate and value ."
"It's all thanks to Charles!"
"By the way, where's Charles?"
"I saw soone looking for him, he left."
As they talked about him, Charles was in a secluded spot outside the hotel, standing before two familiar faces: one was the Level 8 Beast Master, Drake, and the other was Cecilia from the [Dawn] organization.
"What brings you here?" Charles asked Cecilia.
Cecilia, chewing on a lollipop, answered vaguely, "Don't ask , isn't this all because of you?"
Charles pulled out the [Golden Devouring Enhancent Stone] and handed it over, saying, "Perfect timing, here's what you wanted. It's ti to fulfill our agreent."
Cecilia didn't reach for it but looked at Drake beside her, sighed, and asked, "Have you considered joining the [Dawn] organization? You could have many benefits you can't even imagine, each one is sothing others dream of."
Charles shook his head and replied, "I don't want to join any organization right now, I just want to know about Teacher Ezra."
Drake opened his mouth to say sothing, but Cecilia interrupted him imdiately.
"You don't need to worry. I've requested the authority from my superiors. If you agree to join, you'll enjoy benefits that others won't!" Cecilia said slowly.
At that mont, a voice suddenly rang out:
"Hmph! Charles is a student of Cyber Academy, he doesn't need to join you!"
In the next instant, Jamie's figure appeared before the group.
He had been following Charles for a while. Drake's sudden departure gave Jamie a bad feeling, so after returning, he had kept a close eye on Charles.
Jamie looked at Cecilia and Drake and felt relieved that he had arrived in ti, otherwise, Charles might have been tempted!
