<< Mana cultivation is divided into three stages. The Preliminary Stage, the Intermediate stage, and the true stage of cultivation. In the preliminary stages, we have the beginner realm, advanced realm, and master realm which involves expelling the impurities within the black mana core and turning it colorless. Each of these realms is divided into Early, mid, late, and peak levels. >> << Then we have the intermediate which consists of only one realm, the grandmaster realm. In the grandmaster realm, the mana core is divided into twelve parts. >>

<< The final stage is called the true stage because this is where cultivation truly begins. It is divided into eight realms, the Red-core realm, the Orange-core realm, the Yellow-core realm, the Green-core realm, the Blue-core realm, the Indigo-core realm, and the Violent-core realm. Each realm is divided into twelve levels. But...>> old bro paused for a moment before he continued:

<< In the current dark universe, Yellow-core real is the highest realm of cultivation. >>

'Why?' Arlo asked in confusion.

Old bro gave him a short answer, << You will know when you have enough strength. >>

Arlo didn't mind Old Bro's attitude and instead organized all the information he just received as he fixed his eyes on Rosaline who placed her hands on the orb.

'So theoretically, someone like Ric has the talent to reach the violet-core realm, but he could only ever reach the peak of the yellow-core realm. Hmm. What happened for that to be?...' Arlo's quick thought suddenly stagnated as his eyes widened.

The orb underneath Rosaline's hands shone with a white light. Old bro never mentioned such a thing to him.

Then Arlo realized he ignored something important, Old bro had told him that the true stage of cultivation had eight realms but he only mentioned seven; from the Red-core realm to the violet-core realm. As if reading his mind, old bro's voice resounded in his mind as the people in the hall gazed at Rosaline in stunned silence:

<< That is right. There is one more realm of cultivation; the white-core realm. That is the peak cultivation a super-talented mortal could ever reach. Which is why they are said to have 'supreme talent'. >>

The vampires in the hall gazed at Rosaline with complicated looks. If it was before, they would have mourned why such a genius had to be from the Ashley clan. But after Evangeline rose in strength, they didn't dare to look down on the clan that boasted an accelerated thought process and superhuman intelligence. The members of the Ashley clan could divide a second into several units.

Unlike before, it wasn't Count Ashley who walked to the altar. Instead, it was Lord Ashley. The old yet beautiful woman looked at Rosaline with appreciative eyes before she gave her a bowl filled with human blood.

Unlike previous times, Lord Ashley gave her six drops of her Origin blood, causing her face to grow pale. It would be very difficult for her to replenish her origin blood not to mention that it would consume a lot of time. Rosaline showed no transformation like previous students and instead closed her eyes for several minutes. If it would take a genius human two days to memorize the knowledge in a book, then it would take a vampire one day. However, now Rosaline could accomplish such a feat in three hours. She could also simultaneously think and reason about five subjects at the same time with no difficulties.

She went back to her clan group after a while as the ritual continued.

Arlo and Dean were starting to get bored. Most of the vampires who were called showed transformation which couldn't compare to geniuses like Ric, Lysa, and the others. In fact, after Rosaline, no Lord or Count rose to the altar to offer their origin blood. None of the students were worthy enough. Only some vampires with outstanding status decided to share some of their origin blood.

Then, teacher Julian called out a new name:

"Judi Aaron!" Judi who was standing beside Arlo and not in her clan group trembled slightly before she walked onto the altar.

She placed her trembling hands on the orb, and soon after the colorless orb started to light up in a color that shocked all those in the hall.

It was a white glow!

Gasp!

Several gasps resounded within the hall.

In the Aaron family group, Tibu and Nikki started crying in happiness while those who looked down on them before were now showering them with envious looks.

It was a ridiculous reveal.

It must be known that Tibu and his wife were lower-class nobles, so they had always been looked down upon and bullied in noble gatherings. In fact, Tibu was only allowed to supervise one city because of his low status, and that city was even smaller in size. Yet, due to his lack of competence, the city was devastated by demons and later destroyed by Scarlett. Yes, he took his children to the capital city to enroll them into the Academy and wasn't present at the time, but none of the nobles cared about the specifics and instead used the opportunity to further bully them.

They questioned the judgment of Count Aaron who decided to share his origin blood with Tibu. But now they could see why.

A supreme talent!

A supreme talent is not one to be seen often. That is further proved by how Rosaline was the only one to have a supreme talent among the over one hundred vampire students. And vampires were said to be one of the most talented races in the universe.

In fact, one supreme talent could be found in a continent. Which is why they were called continent-level geniuses.

Yet today, two supreme talents appeared among the first-year students. And one of them was even born with a low status.

The hall was engulfed in an eerie silence and even Teacher Julian and Principal Stanley had complicated looks on their faces as they gazed at Judi. The silence was soon broken by the footsteps of a person who walked to the altar.

It was Lord Aaron. An old man who had yet to say a word since he entered the hall. From the cold look on his face, one could guess he treated his words like gold.

Unlike Lord Ashley who shared six drops, Lord Aaron shared seven drops of his origin blood.

After drinking the blood, Judi's body exploded into a swarm of bats.

Old bro's voice resounded once more within Arlo's mind:

<< Aaron's clan ability is to transform into a swarm of bats. With this, not only would it be difficult to be attacked, but she could even use magic by controlling each of the bats. It's just that each bat could only use a percentage of her attack power. But the further she trains and the more origin blood she accumulates, the more power each bat could exert. >>

Arlo's mouth hung open.

'Isn't this power too fraudulent?'

After a short while, Judi transformed back to her human body and returned to her clan's group. From the beginning to the end, Lord Aaron didn't speak a word. His expression didn't even change even as he returned to his position.

Judi went back to her group where she was welcomed by Count Aaron with a warm smile. She jumped into her parent's embrace and shed tears with them. During this time, the vampires didn't refrain from showering them with a lot of praise. Those who bullied them before took the lead as they tried to patch their relationships.

The Tibu family's lives will soon change.

Teacher Julian's voice drifted into the group's ears as they were celebrating:

"Bon Aaron!"

Bon walked to the altar with slow and careful steps. He felt happy for his sister, but also felt a lot of pressure from the stares on him. Especially from his clan who were gazing at him with expectant eyes.
