Pacing back and forth, Anderson said in a sullen tone, "I don't care whatever happened! Now that I finally found such a promising young cultivator, you had no right to lose him!"
He stopped and pointed a finger at Elder Ryan.
"If you don't get him back as soon as possible, I will never let you go. You hear me?" Anderson then sulked on a wooden armchair and acted as if he would not listen to any excuses until his promising cultivator was returned back here.
A man, wearing blue clothes, sighed and decided to intervene.
"Oh, come on, dude, will you loosen up a bit and stop blaming Elder Ryan about it? Besides, after he came back with the new students, he came to me immediately and explained everything to me.
I am certain that Elder Ryan tried his best.
Perhaps, that Austin had some unfinished business to deal with that he forgot about, or something had happened to him. Either way, you should not blame Elder Ryan for this issue.
Setting that aside, are you really sure that Austin was the one who caused the abnormal phenomenon of the Talent Stela?
Because, if that's the case, it means that he is indeed the most talented cultivator in our Divine Continent for the past several centuries.
To be honest, it still seems unbelievable."
The man folded his arms across his chest as he thought about what Anderson had told him. Even though he tried to imagine it, it still seemed impossible for him. He shifted his weight to the other foot, and at first sight, he did look less than a cultivator because he didn't release the vital energy.
He gave an utmost impression of being poised but unambitious.
Although he looked in his early thirties, he was much older than he appeared to be.
Regardless of how he looked, this person was still the dean of the Blue Dragon School, one of the four biggest martial arts schools in the Divine Continent.
Hearing what the dean just asked, Anderson frowned even more.
"Are you telling me that you don't believe what I said?" he responded and sounded annoyed.
"Well, I'm not saying that I don't believe you. What I'm trying to say is that it just seemed impossible.
For the past four hundred years, no one in our Divine Continent was able to trigger the abnormal vision of Talent Stela.
Yes, it seems like our continent just did not have luck on our side, since there have been many incredible talents on the other continents.
Then, out of nowhere, you tell me that an exceptional genius appeared and was able to do what we couldn't for the past four centuries.
We have accepted the fact that our continent lacked prom
that Anderson, who showed up in the Mighty Mountains, must really have something to do with Austin. That's why he was allowed to enter our school.
Now that Austin is missing, I'm sure he had this coming."
"Well, well, well, I can't wait to spread this news to the three other schools, and let all the new students from our East Mainland hear about this.
With that, people will come to know who Austin really is.
He is just a piece of trash, an untalented person, who attempted to be admitted to our school with the help of connections.
This is the best news I have ever heard in weeks, and I am certain that Austin deserves this; if not, he deserves worse for what he did."
Because of these rumors circulating around the Blue Dragon School, Austin became a laughingstock to many of the new students from the East Mainland.
It could not be denied that Austin had lots of issues and conflicts with many of the top sects in the East Mainland, so hearing that Austin was in trouble made these disciples satisfied and happy.
However, the rumors soon faded down a little, because the most important thing for the hundreds of new students of the Blue Dragon School at this period of time was to prepare for the upcoming New Disciples Competition.
Since the event was getting near, all the new students buried themselves in training. They worked hard and did their best to improve their fighting ability to the utmost strength they could in hopes that they would get good results to impress the leaders of the school.
All of them were aware that they would enjoy a special treatment coming from the schools if they were able to perform well and stood out in the competition.
Of course, there was no doubt about that.
