The beautiful woman then extended her arms towards Barrett, but he was embarrassed and reluctantly hugged her. However, she walked past him and hugged the person behind him, saying, "Monica, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for so long."
"Our beautiful senior sister, Lorena Brons, is unexpectedly the fastest!" Monica, dressed in a wide and comfortable black and white shirt with a revealing neckline, showcased her impressive career line that left the students nearby feeling dry-mouthed. Faintly, the black lace edges seemed to reveal her lower body, with a pair of super short shorts highlighting her long, flawless, and snow-white legs.
The woman known as Lorena Brons wore a white dress, her long beautiful legs rivalling Monica's, and her beauty was exceptional. After Monica's joke, she laughed heartily and boldly said, "I called you to walk with me, but you continued to stay there. Do you know how deeply you hurt me?"
The two stunning women chatted and attracted numerous onlookers, causing some who had planned to leave to turn back and observe them, demonstrating their irresistible charm.
Upon hearing that it was Monica, Barrett quickly lowered his head and walked away, remembering the times he had sneaked into the Academy to see these top-tier beauties in the past life, always fearing being recognized as a non-student and being expelled. However, in this life, Barrett could confidently move forward.
Observing the tables filled with senior brothers and sisters from various departments warmly welcoming new students with luggage, Barrett felt empty-handed. He dared not register yet, as the teachers at the Academy had not returned. He had to wait until the actual start of the school to avoid federal arrest. This was Barrett's precaution.
Barrett was awkwardly pulled by the enthusiastic senior brothers and sisters toward their respective departments. However, upon learning that he was not a student at the Academy, their enthusiasm cooled, especially when they realized Gary was with him. They lost interest in Barrett completely.
Nevertheless, there were some sly small departments that asked Barrett whether he was looking for a man or a woman. Aware of the Academy's tradition, Barrett knew that looking for a man was acceptable, but looking for a woman, regardless of whether she was your sister or not, would result in a beating first, especially if you were considered a handsome rich man. In the previous life, he had often witnessed such scenes, and those who thought highly of themselves had come to be beaten, seeking justice from the Academy due to their family connections, but to no avail.
Barrett immediately shook his head and said, "I'm here to find the teacher."
"I'm telling you, Mech Department, don't be too much! Just because you have a beautiful female counselor and one more beauty, you dare not to put us in your eyes, the perennial fourth will always be you." Barrett Walkered along the familiar path toward the indoor swimming pool of the Academy, although the area was next to the Yellow River, the water was not suitable for bathing. He had to clean up properly. Just past the basketball court, he saw several groups of students facing off on the main field.
"Is this the Academy of War Gods? Why does it feel more like the underworld?" Barrett dared not take shortcuts and stood under the basketball hoop, watching the confrontation on the soccer field, feeling the excitement.
"Hey, buddy, I didn't expect you to come and watch the fun too!" Bill and Jack suddenly walked over, excitedly patting Barrett on the shoulder.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Barrett turned in surprise, not expecting to meet them here. He asked, "Have you signed up yet?"
"Not yet! We heard that the students of the Academy of War Gods are going to fight, so we came to watch the fun. Didn't expect to run into you!" Jack said cheerfully.
"Stop making noise and watch the show!" Bill stared fixedly at the scene. They might be able to integrate into this place in the future, so they didn't want to miss anything.
"How come you're not challenging the perennial fourth? I heard your brother is the perennial fourth!" The leader of the Mech Department was not the legendary beauty, but a bookish young man in a white shirt and tie, polished shoes. Wade Kim, a genius boy from the slums, ranked third in the 014th generation of the Academy with the ability of a junior lieutenant. After just one year of study at the Academy, he had been promoted to the rank of lieutenant.
The perennial fourth referred to the economic department of the Academy of War Gods (also known as the aristocratic department), which was specially set up to accommodate the offspring of the nobility. These people had privileges different from the commoners, that is, as long as you worked hard and could pass the eighteen tests on your own, you could enter one of the four major departments or some other smaller departments. However, in recent years, very few of the nobility had managed to pass those eighteen tests and enter the economic department, so they were jokingly called the perennial fourth.
"Wade Kim, don't you have any sense of shame? Going to the Mech Department just to be the first? You have the nerve to be the leader of the Mech Department!" The leader of the Occult Department, Jasmine Washington, was a senior lieutenant in mental abilities and a captain in spiritual power. She ranked below Wade Kim when they entered the Academy and had challenged him multiple times, but had always lost to his persistence.
The top two students of the 014th generation were the Harley brothers. They were orphans who had grown up in the wilderness since childhood. Their elder brother, Saint-Harley, was a senior lieutenant when he entered the Academy, a shocking achievement in this generation. He was sociable and a popular figure. His younger brother, Pluto-Harley, was the complete opposite, reclusive in nature. His ability rank was colonel, which had shocked the entire Academy at the time! However, due to his brutal actions, he had seriously injured several seed students of the combat department in the past, leaving them with deep psychological scars. As a result, he had been ordered to transfer schools and had since become even more mysterious and terrifying.
"Stop talking nonsense! If I can't beat the 013th and 012th, and the combat department, can't I beat you? How dare you challenge me." Wade Kim roared and, with the students from the Mech Department, charged toward the Occult Department, daring to bully them.
The Occult Department didn't hold back. Jasmine Washington cried out, and a large group of women sat cross-legged, closing their eyes and chanting spells. The male students behind them quickly rushed out, their faces flushed, their eyes fierce like wild animals.
"I can't believe these guys chose these women as their opponents. How can they be so bold!" Bill couldn't help but speak angrily.
"You know, I heard that the women at this Academy of War Gods are even more formidable than the men! Look at these old witches chanting spells. I'm starting to feel a bit of a headache now." Jack rubbed his head, looking exhausted.
Barrett, with his unparalleled insight into spiritual power, closed his eyes and focused on sensing the rippling spiritual waves. He saw the female students of the Occult Department creating a vortex in the air, seemingly devouring the energy of the male students from the Mech Department. Barrett opened his eyes in shock. Had the application of spiritual power on such a large scale already exceeded his understanding of all things three years from now?
Barrett knew that many of their generation were the grandchildren of the Federation's top figures, so their generation was in a golden age, a time of explosive knowledge. Sniper knowledge, technological knowledge, and occult knowledge, everything had skyrocketed like a rocket in these four years. This was the solid foundation laid by the Federation's development over more than ten years, leading to a sudden rise. However, what Barrett witnessed at the Academy today clearly exceeded everything he had known three years from now.
