Joe was stressed.
He didn't believe that the World Tree Academy was as mysterious as the legends made it out to be, nor did he believe that Green Shade City would teach its trump card to the exchange students.
However,
A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow!
The top powerhouses of Tree Shade City were like thunder piercing their ears.
There were also many experts from the World Tree Academy.
He was also afraid that Victor would grow stronger in the World Tree Academy and leave him behind.
He wanted to prove that his choice was right.
He wanted to prove that even if he didn't rely on the World Tree Academy, he still wouldn't be worse than any genius in Tree Shade City!
For this,
For the past year, Charle had been cultivating as hard as he could.
In order to allow himself to break through between life and death, not only did he hone his combat skills in the spiritual space, he even ventured deep into dangerous areas to fight against powerful exotic beasts.
He had become a Senior Transcendent, and his combat power was countless times stronger than a year ago!
If he didn't give it his all, Charle wouldn't have known that he had so much potential.
"For that, Vito, I must thank you."
"The best way to thank you is to defeat you."
Joe's confidence was not entirely without reason.
The progress he had made this year was more than what he had made in the past two years.
He had also seen the video of Victor's graduation examination. Although he was unlucky to stop in the top sixteen, he was defeated in three moves … Heh, Victor's improvement in the World Tree Academy was not as obvious as he had imagined.
He also knew,
Garlow, the only son of a cabinet elder of the Heroes' Club, was also one of the exchange students.
Garro had returned to Hero City half a year ago, but he did not know why.
But Joe knew how strong Garro was.
Compared to the six months before his departure, Garro had hardly made any progress in the Tree Shade City!
Was this the standard of the World Tree Academy?
Garro probably returned to the Heroes' Club early because the World Tree Academy was too lousy.
Poor Victor stayed there foolishly.
Charle's aura was overbearing.
There was only Victor in his eyes.
His lifelong enemy.
No, as long as he defeated Vidor and proved his choice …
Victor was no longer an enemy he recognized.
"Come, right here, let's decide the winner!"
Joe grew excited.
Victor was only stunned for a moment before he regained his composure.
Joe regarded him as a lifelong enemy.
Wasn't he the same?
But it was only once.
In the former Heroes' Club, in the vast land of North America, among the tens of millions of young people, only Joe was worthy of his attention.
The two of them were both enemies and friends.
Competing with each other.
The other geniuses were left far behind by them.
Back then, Qiao Zao broke through to the Transcendent level in five days, which made Victor very upset.
Back then, when Charle lost to him by a single move, Victor was overjoyed.
But now, he only had calmness.
The so-called genius that could be taken seriously was merely because they were frogs at the bottom of a well.
Joe's challenge.
Joe's excitement,
Victor saw it all.
But there was only calmness.
He was calmer than he had expected.
But he still agreed. "Okay, here it is."
Charle's aura continued to rise, almost materializing as it soared into the sky.
A gust of wind swept through the training ground.
Even though this place was remote, there were still some Transcendents nearby who sensed it and sent out their psychic powers.
"It's Joe and Victor!"
"The last time they fought was more than a year ago!"
"Say, who do you think will win between the two?"
"Victor. After all, he studied in the World Tree Academy for a year."
"Hey, I don't like what you said. You make it sound like our Heroes' Club is not good. Why did I hear that Victor didn't make much progress during his study and was defeated in a battle?"
"Hehehehe …"
Some gossipy Transcendents communicated with their psychic powers.
In an instant.
Joe moved.
A beast head seemed to appear behind him and roared.
This was a secret technique.
A secret technique of the Heroes' Club!
It was condensed by collecting the murderous aura of exotic beasts.
As soon as the beast head appeared, Joe's aura rose again. He was like a giant that had existed since ancient times, looking down at Victor coldly.
— He went deep into the danger zone to fight exotic beasts, not just for a breakthrough between life and death.
Joe slightly curled his legs and pounced like a tiger.
The murderous aura gathered into a light red airflow. The newly built training ground that had not yet been engraved with runes to strengthen instantly cracked.
Wherever Charle passed, a ravine that was several meters wide and several meters deep was left behind!
Most of the training ground was shrouded in murderous aura.
The murderous aura hit him in the face, but Victor's expression did not change.
Indeed, he did not go deep into the danger zone to fight for his life like Joe. His murderous aura was far inferior to his opponent.
However.
It was not that he had never faced a similar move.
In the World Tree Academy, there were many students who used murderous aura as the core to construct combat tactics.
Among them, there were, and more than one, stronger than Joe.
It was not that Joe did not work hard enough and did not risk his life. It was really … in Victor's eyes, the secret technique was too crude.
With his current foundation and strength, if he wanted to, he could also create a crude Blood Fiend Secret Technique like the one in Joe's hand.
One could imagine.
The World Tree Academy's Blood Fiend Secret Technique was created, communicated, and improved by countless second-order powerhouses.
It was said that the originator of this type of secret technique was the chief instructor of Tree Shade City, one of the first three powerhouses of Tree Shade City, Roger!
His current realm was unfathomable.
The murderous aura shrouded the place like a cold winter.
Even the Transcendents who were probing with psychic power from afar felt threatened. Their minds were in a trance for a moment.
At this time.
Victor moved!
An incomparably sharp spear burst forth. The murderous aura around him was instantly washed away.
He took a step forward, and abundant source power gushed out from the vortex in his body, from his waist into his arm, and then into the Divine Weapon long spear.
Buzz —
A faint golden light bloomed.
The body of the spear was raised horizontally and slightly stabbed forward.
From a distance, it seemed as if Joe was coming with endless momentum. Victor just stood in place and hastily counterattacked.
But this blow.
The big sword wrapped in a thick murderous aura slashed down, and the blade collided with the tip of the spear.
"Dang", Joe's arm shook violently.
The condensed beast head was like an exploding balloon, and in an instant, the murderous aura thinned a lot.
Victor took a step forward, and the long spear advanced.
"Dang" again, Joe only felt an unparalleled force coming from his hand.
Accompanied by a sharp aura, it instantly disintegrated his river-like source power.
Accompanied by an unparalleled momentum, he seemed to be shorter in an instant, and the resistance in his heart became weaker and weaker.
His body gradually stiffened.
His mind was blank.
It was as if he had been locked.
He couldn't block it, couldn't dodge it.
BOOM!!!
Joe flew backward far away.
He was even faster than when he came.
A mouthful of blood had already been spat out in mid-air, drawing a long line of blood and sprinkling on the messy training ground.
Joe smashed a big hole in the thick wall of the training ground and flew for another few hundred meters without stopping. He rubbed the ground and rolled twice before lying on the ground in a sorry state. His eyes were dull.
His injury was not serious.
Except for a little recoil, Victor didn't really hurt him.
But his heart was hurt.
It shattered into pieces.
Joe, who thought highly of himself and thought that he would not be worse than anyone, was completely confused on this day.
Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were empty, and his body was like a dried fish, unwilling to move.
Just sleep like this.
…
Victor left the training ground.
He didn't comfort him.
In his opinion, Joe was not that fragile.
Joe was still a genius worthy of attention, but he had taken the wrong path.
No matter how spacious the path was, he would never reach the palace of the sky.
Victor stayed in the Hero Academy for a week, and then stayed in the family for a week. Then, he returned to Tree Shade City.
He cultivated in the World Tree Academy.
In the blink of an eye, it was the start of the new year.
Today, the Heroes' Club had sent more exchange students to the school.
However, the quality of this exchange students was obviously not as good as the first batch. Many so-called geniuses could only be relegated to the elite class.
Some exchange students had a weak mind and couldn't bear the blow and became dispirited. In the end, they were persuaded to leave like Garlo.
But more geniuses were not that fragile.
They had also experienced the darkness of the early days of the doomsday. They understood the importance of power and cherished the opportunity to study in the World Tree Academy.
On this day.
Victor finally received news from the Transcendent class.
"Brother Ji, you said … the Transcendent class is not in the academy?"
Victor spoke fluent Great Xia language and couldn't hide the surprise in his tone, "No wonder I have never seen the students of the Transcendent class in the academy … But isn't the Transcendent class also a class in the academy?"
"Who told you that the Transcendent class belongs to the World Tree Academy?" Ji Kaipeng said with a smile, "We did graduate from the academy."
"Then the Transcendent class is a higher school?"
Victor understood it as the difference between high school and university.
However, the Transcendent class was only one class. Even if the runes class, pharmaceutics class, and array formation class were added, there were only a few students. Was there a need to choose a new place?
"Yes and no," Ji Kaipeng said, "After all, you are an exchange student. It's normal that you don't know."
"It's confidential?" Victor was surprised.
"It is indeed confidential. However, since you are enrolled in the Transcendent class, you will know this information sooner or later … But I still suggest that you keep it to yourself."
Gulp ~
Victor's intuition told him that he was about to hear some incredible information.
Even his state of mind was stirred up by waves.
Ji Kaipeng didn't say it directly. Instead, he kept him in suspense.
"How many students do you think there are in the Transcendent class?"
"Oh, right." He added, "The Transcendent class doesn't use a semester as the benchmark, nor does it have a fixed number of years. Instead, it has a graduation standard.
"Usually, the more talented a person is, the harder the graduation standard will be. For example, a genius like Duan Qin will usually stay in the Transcendent class for a few years. As for ordinary people like us, we might graduate in one or two years."
Victor didn't ask about the silly words of deliberately not graduating.
The Transcendent class must have its own set of rules.
"Now guess how many students are in the Transcendent class."
Victor resisted the curiosity of being kept in suspense. After all, he couldn't beat them.
He estimated, "The World Tree Academy has already had five graduates before us. According to an average of six people in each batch, plus the other geniuses who were directly selected by the Transcendent class in Tree Shade City, and then subtracting the students who graduated from the Transcendent class …
About … 20 to 40 people. "
He estimated a relatively large range.
Ji Kaipeng smiled.
After a few seconds, he stretched out five fingers.
"50? So many. "
"No, it's 500. It's the number I heard two years ago."
"How is that possible! How come there are so many … "
Victor's eyes widened. He suddenly thought of a possibility.
"You mean …"
"Yes, it's the one you're thinking about." Ji Kaipeng nodded. The boy was worth teaching.
"It's the genius secretly cultivated by Tree Shade City … Ugh."
He quickly covered his mouth and looked around.
It was terrifying.
It turned out that Tree Shade City secretly cultivated so many geniuses, and the World Tree Academy was only a small part of it!
Ji Kaipeng spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Huh???" Victor was puzzled.
Thinking about it carefully, Victor's guess was not wrong.
Tree Shade City indeed cultivated many geniuses outside the World Tree Academy.
But, the essence was completely different!
"I'll tell you everything." He no longer had any interest and waved his hand, "The reason why there are so many students in the Transcendent class is because … the Transcendent class is not on Earth."
He added, "It's not a secret book, it's not a small world, it's not on Earth at all."
"The students in the Transcendent class are from the World Tree Academy, only a small part of them."
Victor's expression changed from confusion, to doubt, to surprise, and then to shock in a second.
In the end, his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
"O-o-alien race??"
"No, aliens, yes, but they are basically humans or races similar to humans. For example, the Wood Spirit Race that exists on Earth."
Ji Kaipeng said, "The human race is a very common race in the Endless World. Together with the Spirit Race, the Demon Race, and the Beast Race, they are known as the four most common races. They were also once the top race in the Endless World."
"Once?"
Victor caught a glimpse of Hua's words.
"You should know that the alien race that invaded our world belongs to the Devil Race, and the Devil Race …"
Ji Kaipeng said some of the information he knew.
Many of them were only a few years ago, and there was little information.
He had never stepped out of Earth. He only knew that the general trend was against Earth and the human race.
But to Victor, who hadn't even seen the alien races before, this information was explosive.
His brain seemed to explode, and he saw a wider world.
"No wonder City Lord Tang established the Cultivation Academy, spreading cultivation methods, secret techniques, and even established the Transcendent class across countless planets …"
"The City Lord has set his sights on the human race. He has worked hard for the survival of the human race. He … is too great!"
Victor's admiration rose from the bottom of his heart.
When the high-level leaders of the Heroes' Club used their exchange students to bring back high-end knowledge and were complacent, they didn't know that it was all deliberately spread by the Tree Shade City.
They were both forces established at the beginning of the doomsday. How could the gap be so big!
Ji Kaipeng continued, "The City Lord has sacrificed for the entire human race, but not everyone has the same awareness. So, some things can't be made public immediately, just like the real situation of the Transcendent class. You can understand."
"I understand, I understand, I understand! Don't worry, I will never say a word. "
Victor's eyes were burning.
That was the glory of dedication to the human race.
While the two were talking, the other ten graduates who were admitted to the Transcendent class also arrived one after another.
They would soon go to the legendary Transcendent class that was not on Earth.
Victor's eyes lit up.
