Orion, Victor, and Mark made their way to the corner when the cadets blocking the others' path took note of them.
"There are more," one of the cadets laughed, looking at them, before his expression beca even more amusing. "Look, that one is Ray Wiser. He defeated Zeref of the Human Federation Realm but wasted himself in doing so."
Orion ignored them and asked Erza and Tracy, "What's going on here?" Discover hidden stories at empire
"Brother, they want to fight the strongest from each domain, saying we from the three domains are inferior beings, not even compared to ants," Tracy complained to Orion.
"I see." Orion nodded lightly as he observed the ones blocking their path and noticed their strength was at the 9th level of platinum rank. 'They are just normal cadets from the looks of it, but their strength is at the peak of platinum rank.' He found their situation very unfavorable. Only he, Mark, and Zeref had the strength to have a chance against them.
He didn't know if Astral, Elyn, and the others had upgraded their strength to platinum rank yet.
"We just wanted to get to know the newbies better," said another cadet blocking their path. "And what better way to know soone than through an actual fight?"
"If you want to get to know each other, you can wait until your classes start. I'm very sure you'll et so of them in your classes."
Just then, Elijah appeared between them. He looked at the older cadets and flashed a smile. "How about my suggestion?"
"Senior Elijah, we—we're good with it. We'll do as you say." The cadets blocking their path nodded before running away like scaredy cats.
Elijah then turned towards the new cadets. "You should look out for each other. Dollas Academy promotes competition among cadets, which ans if there's a fight between cadets and it's not a life-and-death battle, the academy won't stop it. Be careful of this rule and of them."
He added with a grin, "By the way, I'm the leader of the Mortal Blood Alliance. If any of you want to join, be sure to knock on our door a week from now, but I doubt any of you will be eligible."
"What do you an? You think we're not strong enough?" Elyn asked, feeling dissatisfied.
"It's not that," Elijah laughed awkwardly. "It's just that my alliance has very strict requirents for accepting cadets, and we can go years without recruiting anyone. But this ti, I have my eye on three of you."
Orion narrowed his eyes as he listened. 'It seems he found another one,' he thought.
"What are the requirents?" Astral asked curiously.
"Forget about that alliance." Just then, another man joined them. It was the leader of the Hunter Alliance. "I'm Josh Lane, leader of the Hunter Alliance, and my invitation is open to all of you."
As he said that, he tapped his halowatch a couple of tis before beeping sounds began to ring from almost everyone's halowatches.
"That's my invitation," Josh Lane smiled and said. "If any of you are interested, just co to our departnt a week from today, and we'll welco you all."
"Is the Hunter Alliance related to the Hunter Association in the Human Federation Realm?" soone from the newbie group asked.
"Kind of, sort of," Josh replied awkwardly. "You'll learn everything when you do your research."
"Who are Astral Voidwalker, Yun Luo, and Xi Li?"
Just then, a rough voice sounded, and a huge man approached them. He was heavily built, with muscles as big as one's thigh. A large heavy sword was strapped to his back, and as he walked, they could feel the ground tremble slightly.
"I'm Tony Dale, leader of the Armour Destroyer Alliance." He introduced himself. "I'll be straight. My alliance is all about attack power, strength, aggressiveness, and more attack power. So I'm only inviting those I've seen with strong attack power."
He looked at Astral, Yun Luo, and Xi Li. "The three of you fit that criterion. Your talents are perfect for my alliance." He then tapped on his halowatch, sending them invitations.
"Tch, I wanted them too, but we'll see which alliance they join in the end," Josh said, grinning.
"Haha, Josh, you invite everyone here, like always," Elijah laughed. "I'm sure only so of them will join your alliance, as usual."
Josh sneered at Elijah. "At least it's better than what your alliance gets." He paused, realizing sothing. "Oh, my mistake—you didn't get any cadets last year, did you?"
"Yeah, yeah, go ahead and make fun of ," Elijah said with a plain face before turning his attention to Orion, Mark, and a lady from the Martial Domain. "Ray, Mark, i Lin, I'll send you the invitation. Be sure to be there on ti." He tapped on his halowatch.
"Heh? Them? What's so special about them over all the cadets here?" Josh observed Orion and Mark closely, narrowing his eyes. "Ray and Mark—I've seen their fights. They're both strong. But Mark is hiding his strength, and it seems he doesn't like fighting.
Ray won the battle against Zeref and is very strong. I don't know much about i Lin, but I doubt she's stronger than Zeref, Astral, or the others here, right?"
"You wouldn't understand. In my eyes, they're the most precious gems," Elijah said, turning his attention to the three of them. "It's sent. Be sure to be on ti."
"Most precious gems?! Ew!" Josh said, disgusted. "You're strange as always."
"Wow, everyone's gathered here... what's going on?" An excited voice sounded, and two ladies appeared before them. One had short black hair, a black dress, and a hoodie; the other wore a white suit and was well-dressed. They were Sophia Lita, leader of the Purple Rose Alliance, and Celly Lucia, leader of the Horton Gear Alliance.
The one in the white suit, Celly, had an excited expression as she looked at Tony, Elijah, and Josh gathered together.
"Oh, so you're all after the newbies," Celly laughed enthusiastically. "I want so newbies too, but I doubt anyone here is interested in my alliance."
"There should be so cadets capable of joining my alliance for sure," Sophia said as she looked through the cadets, though it wasn't clear what she was assessing.
"Didn't you two prepare beforehand which newbies to choose from?" Josh asked, facepalming.
"I forgot to do so," Celly admitted quietly, feeling embarrassed.
"I don't care," Sophia said. "I just need to look at them to know if they're capable of joining my alliance."
Josh shook his head with a wry smile.
"Ray, Mark, and i Lin, can I have a sec?" Elijah called them over.
Ray and Mark exchanged glances before nodding lightly and following him a short distance away from the others. The young woman from the Martial Domain also followed.
"Are they from there too?" i Lin asked, pointing at Orion and Mark as she looked at Elijah.
"Why do you ask?" Elijah asked, intrigued.
"I an, they just seem too weak to be chosen transmigrators," i Lin said bluntly.
Orion and Mark nearly stumbled when they heard her and laughed wryly.
"Well, there are both strong and weak ones. I'll tell you more in my departnt, not here," Elijah said, smiling.
"You should know about the pages," he added, imdiately attracting the trio's attention.
Orion and Mark looked at Elijah suspiciously, wondering how he knew about them.
"How do you know about that?" i Lin asked, glancing at Orion and Mark. "You two know too? How? I haven't told anyone about this!"
Elijah smiled wryly and shook his head. "Archons know about the existence of these pages," he said, shocking the three of them.
"In fact, they even possess so of these pages," he added, shocking them even more.
Orion and Mark exchanged surprised glances. Neither of them had expected that such a godlike artifact would be common knowledge among the Archons. The fact that they were aware of it, and spoke of it so casually, left both of them speechless.
What they had assud to be an extraordinary secret was, in the Archons' realm, sothing well within their understanding.
Elijah's expression grew solemn. "Just know that these pages are sohow connected to us transmigrators. They only appear every ten years, when transmigrators like us arrive in this world."
He added gravely, "Find them all, and when you do, they will vanish automatically. Until then, keep increasing that number on your palm."
He narrowed his eyes. "If you fail to collect them quickly, then the transmigrators of this ti will start dying one by one. Your first task is to collect all the pages."
