Looking at the smug Titus King, Aster Grant couldn’t hold it in.
If he couldn’t discern the attributes of a Beastbond, he might have been fooled.
Dragon Clan bloodline?
Aster Grant shook his head in private.
If it were a pureblood Dragon Clan, it would be worth noticing, but this barely-related lizard...
Forget it!
However, Titus King was already entirely imrsed in the praises of the surrounding students:
"If I’m not mistaken, that beast beside Titus is the Legendary Level Lava Dragon-Lizard!"
"I heard the King Family utilized nearly all their connections to get this Beastbond!"
"With such a strong Beastbond, it seems Titus plans to break the record of this Awakening Sanctum and earn the principal’s reward!"
Aster Grant was sowhat astonished upon hearing these discussions.
What record? What reward?
As a newcor, he was not yet well-versed with the rules at Aegis Academy.
"Aster, look over there." Caelus Quinn tily pointed towards the entrance of the Sanctum, "On that record stele, the best scores of past years are engraved."
Aster followed Caelus’s finger and saw an antiquated stone monunt engraved with gilded text:
[First Place, Noelle Quinn, 9 hours 15 minutes]
[Second Place, River Winslow, 28 hours 17 minutes]
[Third Place, Kyle King, 28 hours 25 minutes]
...
[Tenth Place, Jett Shaw, 30 hours 7 minutes]
Looking at this list, Aster frowned slightly.
The gap between first and second place...
Why so vast?
The gap from third to tenth place is rely two hours.
Yet between first and second...
There’s actually a 19-hour difference!
Aster instinctively turned to Caelus Quinn.
"Aster, this list records the ti it takes for a Beastbond to break through from Awakened Tier One to Tier Nine."
"The person at the top spot was, like you, a genius specially recruited by Principal Drake five years ago."
Upon hearing ’special recruitnt,’ Aster recalled!
Zane Drake had specially recruited students twice in total.
One was him.
The other was this Noelle Quinn.
"Because Noelle’s record is too extraordinary, the academy has long stated that her score is not a reference."
"Principal Drake once personally promised that anyone who surpasses the second place can choose any treasure from the Guardian Treasury!"
Saying this, Caelus glanced at Titus, lowered his voice, and continued:
"Titus being able to own this Beastbond is likely because the King Family has their eyes on so treasure in Aegis Academy’s treasury, which is why they are spending so lavishly."
Hearing "Guardian Treasury," Aster’s pupils slightly contracted.
He clearly rembered that the "Holy Marrow Spirit Liquid" Lazuli needed for her last evolution ca from there.
And as long as the record is broken, one can enter and select a material...
Aster thought of his two Beastbonds.
Currently, both Beastbonds have reached Myth Level in talent!
But still...
Who wouldn’t want their Beastbond to beco even stronger?
Entering the Guardian Treasury, what if the evolutionary materials for his two Beastbonds are there...
I must enter!
Aster made up his mind imdiately.
Missing this chance, who knows when he would again be eligible to enter the Guardian Treasury.
Moreover....
His gaze involuntarily settled on that bright, shining na at the top of the list.
Noelle Quinn!
Just like him, personally recruited by Principal Drake, a genius suppressing their era.
Aster slightly smiled, and that long-lost competitive urge suddenly blazed in his chest.
He was keen to know whether he compared to that legendary senior...
Who was stronger!
Seeing Aster completely ignoring him, Titus fud with anger.
He was about to act, but suddenly felt the fear coming from the Lava Dragon-Lizard through the contract.
"What’s going on?"
He turned in surprise, only to see his Beastbond lying weakly on the ground, its scales trembling incessantly, entirely devoid of any Legendary Level Beastbond prestige?
Could it be...
Titus sharply looked at Aster.
Has that dreadful angel appeared again?
But on second thought, the Awakening Sanctum forbids the entry of Transcendent Level Beastbonds!
No matter how strong that angel is, it can’t determine the outco of this Sanctum!
This ti, the first place will definitely be his!
Yet looking at his trembling Drake, he eventually recognized the situation and left with the Beastbond in disgrace.
anwhile, Crystal Winslow looked at Vera with a mix of shock and suspicion. Her spiritual power was stronger.
She could perceive the source of the aura just now ca from this adorable little girl.
To make a Legendary Level Drake feel fear, this indicates...
This Beastbond’s level might be on par with Lazuli...
Also Myth Level?!
Aster turned his head slightly, his gaze settling on Vera, who was feigning innocence by his side.
The instigator who just scared away that Drake was indeed her.
Seeing Aster glance over, this little girl imdiately stuck out her tongue.
"Master, I just couldn’t stand his arrogance, sorry~"
Aster chuckled, his elegant fingers gently ruffling her golden hair.
For such a trivial matter, he naturally wouldn’t bla his Beastbond.
After all, she ant well!
"It’s fine!"
Seeing her master wasn’t angry, Vera imdiately took advantage, spreading her arms sweetly:
"Master hug ~"
This endearing act was just like a little daughter asking for candy.
It softened Aster’s heart, instinctively pulling her into an embrace.
anwhile.
In the Beastbond Space, Lazuli, who had watched the entire spectacle, stomped her feet in frustration:
"This little green tea spirit!"
She gritted her teeth staring at Vera outside acting coy, her golden pupils almost spitting fire.
Playing innocent, deceiving the master’s feelings!!
Infuriating!!
Growing angrier, her gaze fell upon the trembling Tree of Life.
It was then.
"Ti’s up!"
A teacher in a green robe stood aloft, lightly waving his sleeves, causing the barrier at the Sanctum entrance to ripple like water.
Countless intricate runes flowed in the void, finally consolidating into a radiant Light Gate.
"The Awakening Sanctum is officially open! All students, enter in order!"
...
In the principal’s office, Zane Drake was frowning at Aster’s dossier.
Aster’s background was unfavorable.
This ant Aster’s second Beastbond, the academy had to take charge.
"What Beastbond should I pair him with..." Zane Drake murmured, stroking his beard.
His gaze swept over the remaining Legendary Level Beastbonds list in the academy, yet none satisfied him.
The first Beastbond was already Myth Level, the second must be at least top-tier Legendary!
As he struggled, the office door was suddenly flung open.
"Principal! There’s an ergency!"
Jay Fletcher burst in, panting.
Zane Drake frowned in displeasure: "Director Fulton, what’s with this frantic behavior!"
"Aster... Aster has entered the Awakening Sanctum!"
Upon hearing the news, Zane Drake was initially indifferent.
Isn’t he just entering a Sanctum?
But the next mont, Zane Drake sprang to his feet, the solid wooden chair sliding half a ter backward.
"What?! Entered the Sanctum?"
What does entering the Awakening Sanctum signify?
It signifies Aster has contracted his second Beastbond!
Yet he was entirely unaware!
If the second Beastbond’s talent is too poor...
Zane Drake felt a chill in his heart!
