The two presidents of the Fire Dance bat Club and Development Club agreed without hesitation. The speculating students were thoroughly jealous as their voices of doubt rose and fell.
A red-haired, fair-skinned, and muscular student behind Noel shouted sternly, “Why can Moss get close to the bat club without waiting for the second selection round?”
His name was Anjiro, one of Noel’s loyal followers. He noticed his boss’s displeasure earlier, so he could not let go of this opportunity.
“That’s right. Why is Moss allowed to join two clubs?” A short student beside Anjiro echoed as he stared at Moss with a pair of eagle-like eyes.
…
The others also expressed their doubts since Noel’s followers took the lead. As the doubtful voices sounded, two strange voices spoke almost simultaneously, “With strength!”
With that said, Alves and Aubrey exchanged glances. It was hard not to suspect that these two had discussed this beforehand. However, in reality, the Fire Dance bat Club, the Development Club, and the Spiritual Power Club were the three most famous clubs in Kyoto.
This was because Moss had already taken a crucial position in their hearts. Moreover, the two were very sure of Moss’s strength.
“What strength does he have? Moss is a mere knight, so how powerful can he be? Aren’t you afraid of ruining the reputations of Kyoto’s top clubs?”
“I agree. Since when did the clubs start making such connections?”
Faced with his schoolmates’ doubts, Aubrey became infuriated. His tiger-like eyes widened as he released his potent spiritual power, causing the surrounding students to feel indescribable and terrifying pressure.
He looked around and sternly said, “You can all question me, but you can’t question our clubs’ fairness, especially Kyoto’s top three clubs, which are ranked first in the country!”
Aubrey realized his actions were a little too extreme for the first-year students. Thus, he withdrew his spiritual power and continued after a pause, “If anyone has any objections to what I said, you can e to the bat club and look for me.
“You can show me your abilities to convince me when the time es. Then I’ll let you into the bat club.”
He looked at Moss and smiled as he continued, “In addition, you can spar with Moss with his consent if you have any objections to the student I’ve chosen.”
He looked sharply at Anjiro as he spoke in a calm and resonant voice, “Don’t try talking your way out of this if you don’t even have a few tricks up your sleeves.”
There was a famous saying in China, “One does not have the right to speak without practice.”
“What’s wrong with being a knight? Do you know how many powerful knights your parents and grandparents had during their time? You haven’t even fought one before, yet you say things like that?”
Alves added solemnly, “While you’re in Kyoto, please remember this word—strength!”
The students and teachers in Kyoto based everything on strength. Of course, this is also the case since the clubs are a part of university life.
“The Development Club weles everyone who has the strength to join. You have my green light as long as you have the strength.”
Alves approached Moss and whispered, “I’m thrilled you’ve joined us, Moss. Still, there are many activities in the top clubs, and you need to invest a lot of time and energy. You can only quit one if you can’t handle both clubs.”
Moss nodded smilingly, “All right, Senior Alves.
“I’ll leave now and see you in the club when we host an event.” Alves patted Moss’s shoulder. After saying goodbye to Aubrey, he turned and left.
Aubrey approached Moss and said meaningfully, “Alves is right. A club cannot reach its achievements without each member’s dedication. Whether or not the bat club can improve further will depend on the strength of new members like you.”
Then Aubrey and his fellow members left, leaving the crowd shocked.
“Just how strong is Moss?!”
“He received the unanimous affirmation of two top-tier club presidents.”
…
The crowd was still in a daze when a voice broke the silence, “Moss, the Deans of the five great academies have invited you over.” A square-faced man with an extraordinary temperament glanced at Moss with envy.
He smiled and continued more amiably, “e with me. They’re all waiting for you.”
“The Great Five?! What kind of big shot is Moss?! They invited Moss over?!”
“What kind of background does Moss e from?!”
“How e Moss became a hot topic after the freshmen test and made so many people go crazy for him?!”
“I’m more curious about Moss’s freshmen test results!”
…
Upon hearing the invitation, the initially quiet crowd became excited again and discussed this topic in groups of threes and fours.
Moss also felt shocked. ‘Why are they looking for me? Are they also here to recruit me? If they are, why aren’t they doing it alone? Why did the Great Five gather?’
Indeed, his thoughts were correct. However, the Deans of the Great Five vied to get Moss after learning his freshmen entrance test results. Ultimately, Monty kicked the ball back to them, allowing the Great Five to pete on a level playing field based on their abilities.
Thus, there was a rare situation where the Deans of the Great Five would gather and pete for a new student.
“All right.” Moss nodded smilingly and followed behind the man toward the main academic building.
Although Moss did not understand why the Great Five had e looking for him, he dared not delay his visit. A moment later, Morales finally recovered from his shock as Moss left.
He quickly followed them and muttered, “Boss Moss is mighty since the president and the five Deans want to see him again. How can I miss such a crucial matter?”
Morales used his Shadow Flash to move toward Moss’s direction quickly. When the other students realized Moss had left, some more curious ones followed him.
They wanted to see why the Great Five were looking for Moss. The students wondered what it was that brought the Great Five together.
