Chapter 391 - six Qualified

The six fallen young men were carried away from the battlefield.

Shinu looked at the rest of the Chosen Ones with obvious displeasure.

The Chosen Ones averted their gazes.

They were standing in fear while six of the bravest ones tried to do something.

\'\'Why didn\'t any of you help?\'\' Shinu asked and pointed at the brown-haired young woman, whose face was pale in fear, \'\'What is your excuse?\'\'

\'\'W-Why should we risk our lives?\'\' Tears brimmed in the corner of her eyes, \'\'T-They offered to be the ones fighting— why should we also risk our lives for this stupid test!\'\'

Few Chosen Ones around her nodded.

Shinu sighed, \'\'Foolish…\'\' His voice wasn\'t heard by anyone, but his following words did, \'\'You all are disqualified. Pack your things and leave the Island.\'\'

\'\'W-What?!\'\' The Chosen Ones shouted in shock.

\'\'Why?!\'\'

\'\'This is stupid! Those six should be disqualified— they are the ones who got injured, not us!\'\'

Among them, a young man with red hair was trembling in anger.

\'\'This is nonsense!\'\' He screamed, which silenced every other voice, \'\'The goal was to survive, isn\'t that right?!\'\'

Another young man appeared from the crowd. His face was dead cold, and few disciples who were spectators paled after seeing him.

He was the one who was the first one that get attacked in the previous test.

His way of fighting caused lifetime trauma for the disciples.

\'\'If we helped them, we would have qualified for the next test?\'\' He asked with a chilly look.

Shinu nodded, \'\'Correct?\'\'

\'\'Why?\'\' The young man tilted his head, \'\'Why should we help them? What is the point? Strength is what matters, not something useless like teamwork.\'\'

The Chosen Ones nodded and shouted, \'\'That\'s right!\'\'

\'\'We are here to find out who is the strongest!\'\' The red-haired young man shouted and slapped his chest, \'\'We are still standing, which means we were stronger than the losers who are probably bleeding out by now!\'\'

\'\'That\'s right!\'\'

Shinu shook his head with disappointment, \'\'Pack your things and leave before nightfall.\'\' He walked past the angry Chosen Ones, who kept shouting, but nothing fazed him.

On top of the mountains.

The families of Chosen Ones were enraged and started shouting at the Grandmasters.

\'\'What is the meaning of this?!\'\'

\'\'Why was my daughter disqualified for something trivial like this?!\'\'

The Grandmasters stayed quiet, and the Secret Geniuses left the mountain.

They already know who will be with them in the final test.

Azura, Zoe, Luna, and Aurora stood up.

They were about to leave but were stopped by Suna.

\'\'I was right!\'\' She appeared in front of Azura with a smug smile, \'\'He lost, which means I was correct!\'\'

\'\'That\'s right.\'\' Azura nodded and walked past her.

\'\'That\'s it?!\'\' She screamed and grabbed Azura from her shoulder, \'\'Don\'t you think you are forgetting something?\'\'

\'\'Like what?\'\' Azura frowned.

\'\'Since you lost the bet. You need to be punished.\'\' She grinned and said, \'\'Bark like a dog, and I might let you leave.\'\'

\'\'What bet? Why would I do that?\'\' Azura tilted her head in confusion.

Suna\'s eyebrow twitched, and another angry shout escaped her mouth, \'\'Don\'t play dumb!\'\'

\'\'There was never a bet.\'\' Azura replied with an innocent smile, \'\'Excuse me, but I have to see if my boyfriend is fine.\'\' She grabbed Suna\'s hand and removed it from her shoulder.

\'\'You bitch!\'\' Suna tried to go after her, but suddenly Soul appeared in front of her with a chilly look.

\'\'Back off… Cousin!\'\' His scream made Suna fall down on her buttocks.

\'\'Oww…\'\' She started rubbing her painful buttocks and felt enraged at her cousin, \'\'How dare you?!\'\'

*Slap*

Out of nowhere, Soul slapped her cheek, causing her to fall down on the ground, \'\'Absolute disgrace.\'\'

Sin glanced at him and said, \'\'That was unnecessary.\'\'

\'\'You fool.\'\' Soul spat on the ground and turned around, \'\'She is a spoiled brat that needs to be disciplined. If I don\'t do it, she will learn it the hard way, but that might also be the last time she will be breathing.\'\'

Sin sighed and looked at her daughter, who was blankly looking at the air, \'\'Suna, go back to rest. We will talk later about your behavior.\'\' He stood up and started walking away.

\'\'B-But, dad!\'\' She screamed at her father, who was walking away, \'\'My knee is bleeding, I can\'t walk!\'\'

A drip of blood started dropping down from her exposed knee.

Sin sighed after Suna\'s spoiled behavior resurfaced.

He didn\'t stop walking and soon disappeared from the view.

…

In the Temple.

Six tables were put neatly in the center of the temple, with bowls of water and towels on the side.

Soon, six young men were carried inside the temple and were put down on the tables.

Lone was still unconscious.

Lord\'s eyes were open, but he couldn\'t move his body.

Ares was gritting his teeth, while the table below him was soon stained in blood.

\'\'Kukukuku…\'\' Darkel chuckled nonstop.

Avery\'s eyes were closed, and his breathing was steady.

He was sleeping without any care in the world.

Ichiro was staring at the ceiling while being half cripple.

He thought his limbs were nonexistent.

They felt light, invisible, and completely nonexistent.

*Creak*

A door was opened, and a Grandmaster appeared with Shinu.

\'\'This is Grandmaster, who is also our Head Doctor.\'\' Shinu stepped to the side and allowed the Grandmaster to do his magic.

The Grandmaster nodded and went towards Ichiro, whose wounds seemed way worse.

He scanned Ichiro\'s skinny body from head to toe and wondered what kind of stress the body had to suffer to get into such shape.

\'\'This will sting.\'\' He said and grabbed Ichiro\'s skinny leg.

\'\'Argh…\'\' Ichiro bit his lip, and soon, greenish dots infiltrated his bones, cells, organs, and heart.

His skinny body started transforming with visible speed, and first, his brownish and wrinkly skin started changing.

The wrinkly skin disappeared, replaced by smooth and beautiful skin.

But that wasn\'t the end.

His brownish skin turned white, and his muscles slowly started growing.

\'\'RAAAAAH!\'\' Everyone in the room watched with amazement as Ichiro shouted majestically.

His gray eyes suddenly started glowing in beautiful grayish colors.

\'\'What is this…\'\' The doctor stumbled backward and had to cover his eyes after the sudden appearance of the bright light.

\'\'What is happening…?\'\' Every person in the room had the same thought as Ichiro\'s hair started slowly turning into the color of white!
