They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System Chapter 516: Fourth Time in Omniora Academy’s History

Chapter 516: Fourth Ti in Omniora Academy’s History

The silence didn’t just break, it shattered.

“What?!” soone gasped from the third row.

“No way!” a girl closer to the back clutched her desk like it was her last lifeline. “Did he say… Prince Carl? Riverum’s Prince Carl?”

“As in, the Crowned Prince of Riverum?!” a boy on the far left whispered loudly, eyes wide. “I thought he was just a d student like the rest of us—”

“How ignorant of you!” another snapped, rolling her eyes. “He’s the best surgeon on the continent. Possibly beyond. Have you been living under a rock?!”

“He set the questions?” a pale boy muttered, visibly trembling. “That’s not just authority, that’s power.”

“We’re dood.” one guy groaned, slumping over his desk. “That guy’s a genius, but I heard he’s evil when it cos to papers.”

“I heard he once wrote a physiology exam that made even the tutors cry,” another added in a near whisper, like a ghost story.

“Why didn’t anyone warn us?!”

“I thought he only lectured Year Ones!” soone near Stephanie’s corner complained, now regretting every skipped study session in vivid detail.

“This is sabotage disguised as formality—” one dramatic soul declared, earning muffled laughter from a few nearby.

Even Nicholas, who was still wiping the sweat from his forehead, sat down in disbelief. “Prince Carl…? The suddenly scary Carl from so months ago?”

Stephanie stiffened beside him, trying to suppress her twitching eye. Even she hadn’t known this.

anwhile, Nnenna’s brows lifted in quiet shock.

Carl?

He hadn’t ntioned this. Not even once. Not yesterday, not last week… and definitely not in the car when he was busy pretending to be a rock star on karaoke.

He must’ve known for months.

And still, he acted like all he had was “positive vibes” and “good luck”.

Nnenna exhaled, her expression unreadable.

So that’s what he ant… when he said I was prepared.

But she was certain of one thing. Carl definitely wouldn’t have told her the questions. He might be jovial, but when it ca to integrity, he was rock solid.

Plus, he hadn’t taught her just bits and pieces of the curriculum. He had drilled her on everything from year two and three, sotis twice over. There was no favoritism, just preparation.

“Quiet down, students,” one of the invigilators behind Elder Ben said firmly.

The room slowly hushed. A few seconds later, the full weight of Elder Ben’s presence returned to their minds and they sat straighter in their seats.

Elder Ben didn’t scold them. Instead, he chuckled lightly, clearly unfazed by the stir.

“The second exception,” he said, his tone calm but firm, “is that, for only the fourth ti in Omniora Academy’s history, soone is attempting to skip academic years.”

The hall exploded in uproar.

“WHAT?!”

“There’s no way… are they insane?!”

“Only three people have ever pulled that off, Carl, Arthur, and Somto!”

“And those three? Monsters in human skin.”

“Everyone else who tried? Crashed so badly, they repeated two extra years!”

“Do they have a death wish?”

“Wait, who’s even doing it? Who dares?!”

“You think it’s that new girl? The one who flung Nicholas like he was made of paper?”

“No. No way. She’s a year one! Don’t tell she’s the one skipping?!”

“Oh, this just got real.”

“Soone pass popcorn. This exam’s officially a movie now.”

“I’m not even stressed about my own results anymore, I just want to see how this plays out.”

“If she pulls it off… she’s not just smart, she’s legendary.”

“I believe her na is Nnenna White,” Elder Ben called out calmly, not the least bit bothered by the growing noise in the hall.

“Nnenna what?” soone echoed, frowning.

“Who’s that?”

“Is she even here yet?”

Heads turned in all directions, until a sharp voice broke through.

“There!” a student pointed at the front row. “She’s right there. Front seat!”

A ripple of recognition spread like wildfire.

“Wait, oh my God, I knew she looked familiar!”

“She’s the one! That girl Jana, the one who got expelled and then charged, ssed with her, not knowing she had Prince Arthur, Prince Carl, and Princess Ava behind her!”

“Nnenna White! That’s right! I rember now!”

Gasps followed.

“Gosh… birds of the sa feather really do flock together.”

“The friend of lions can’t be anything short of dangerous.”

“If she were just another overambitious student, I would say she was crazy… but her? With that kind of backing?”

“Those three must’ve trained her themselves.”

“She might actually make it…”

“Mmm. Maybe. But being coached and actually learning are two different things.”

“True. Her IQ can’t be anywhere near those three.”

“She’ll crash. Watch.”

The noise dulled as a low hum of hesitant agreent followed. No one wanted to say it too loudly, but deep down, most of them didn’t believe it.

She couldn’t possibly asure up. Right?

“What’s her second major?” soone suddenly asked.

The question sparked another wave of whispers. That was true! Just minutes ago, Nicholas hadn’t been able to overpower her. Could that an… she was also a martial artist?

A hush rippled through the class, but Nicholas and Stephanie’s faces turned even darker.

This can’t be happening.

No, she couldn’t be skipping grades.

It wasn’t possible.

“She can’t possibly succeed,” Stephanie muttered under her breath, forcing herself to breathe and calm down. She clenched her jaw. No. The IQ those three had, Carl, Arthur, Somto, was beyond normal. Genius level freakish. No one else like that had ever shown up in all the academy’s history.

This Nnenna girl must be doing it for show. Trying to impress them or sothing. Stephanie laughed to herself. Too bad. She’s going to crash and burn.

“She’ll fail,” Stephanie told herself firmly. “Absolutely. Spectacularly.”

Even I had to work my way up the proper way, one exam, one level, one public recognition at a ti. And now this girl wants to leap forward like she’s better than ? No way.

She turned to Nicholas, who still looked like he hadn’t recovered from the earlier encounter.
