Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"Afraid?" he muttered before laughing, "Don't misunderstand me, but I have never been excited in my life like this moment!" his body even shook a bit while saying these words. "I love challenges, especially those coming from heaven."

He was now pretty sure of what was going on. He challenged the heavens once before by developing a cultivation path that would turn immortals into gods.

"I wasn't punished, I was sent here to be tested… to see if I deserve having such power or not; that's the methodology then," he muttered with a grin over his face. "What's next?" he asked.

'Ding! You need to go back and solidify your newly acquired power,' the system said before adding, 'Ding! You also need to find a way to link the two worlds together.'

"To secure my spiritual energy supply?"

'Ding! Indeed!'

"Alright, let's go back then," he said before giving the place a final glance before finally opening his eyes in the academy world and sitting straight with some dizziness and extreme fatigue.

He leaned forward and Mr. E held his body, before giving him a deep glance. "Are you alright?" Amanda asked as she was able to walk now without staggering.

"I'm… ok I think," he said in such a weak tone that told them how exhausted he was.

"Come," Mr. E shouted back at one of his pets. The giant lion came at once and Mr. E carried Arthur and put him on the back of the pet. "Your soul is exhausted and your energy is depleted. You just need a couple of days to rest and good supplements," he turned to Amanda who nodded, as she would take responsibility for that.

'Ding! I will take the pillars now.'

Just before the lion kicked off, the pillars all around turned hazy all of sudden before vanishing in front of their eyes.

"The pillars…" Mr. E muttered before turning to Arthur as if he knew he was the one behind this.

"Sorry, I will clean them and bring them back," Arthur said while he never intended to do so.

"Clean them? Can you clean them?" yet Mr. E focused entirely on a different thing, "that's great! You can have them as much as you like. If one is cleaned, can you give it to me to test?" he asked, as he had never managed to find a way to clean any pillar of darkness.

"I promise," Arthur lied, but he wanted for him to drop this matter.

"Don't worry, I will make sure he will give them back," yet Amanda laughed from behind, while Arthur knew she wasn't joking!

"Good, let's go out then," Mr. E said, "we have another problem to solve."

"Those dirty elders?" Amanda said, as she figured out what was going on without the need for her master to explain.

"They are… If they are linked to the one who did this to you, I swear I won't let anyone of them alive this time!" Mr. E threatened, and Arthur knew those filthy elders would face a hard time in the next few days.

The three of them moved outside the formation. The moment they did, the scene that appeared in front of their eyes startled them all!

"What is going on here?" Amanda shouted, before Mr. E raised his hand high and the next moment a diagram descended upon the ground from the sky.

It didn't do anything to Arthur, yet to those fighting around the formation they were instantly stupefied in place!

"It's a restriction technique," Arthur muttered and Amanda just nodded before she went ahead to stand beside her master.

The fight seemed to extend beyond the boundaries of the inner academy. Mr. E stood there glancing at all the damage before waving his hand, and Otman regained his freedom.

"Master E, you finally came out," he seemed quite exhausted, suffering multiple wounds, yet he didn't care about them for the moment. "Some elders led a rebellion and started wreaking havoc in the academy," he added while pointing his fingers to a couple of elders, including Mr. B and Lady U.

"Great," Mr. E said in such a grim and serious tone, "you dare to believe I would be killed inside and started all this… amazing! I have to say, you really have balls!"

"We didn't attack first!" Suddenly Mr. B shouted with a loud and angry tone, "your men attacked us and we just defended ourselves!"

"We ask for a fair trial!" Lady U shouted also to support Mr. B's words, "we want justice on the hands of the dean!"

"Sure, you come here and attack the formation that's guarded by Otman and claim this is just a self defense? Funny, really hilarious," Mr. E even laughed, a laugh that made the body of Arthur tremble.

"And now you have the courage and audacity to ask for a fair trial! What do you think this place is? The backyard of your clans and guilds? We are the Dorgazire academy! Anyone who dared to rebel will be executed at the moment!"

His words didn't finish and he took out a medallion. It was a golden one, engraved with red lines. He held it high in the air while muttering: "Per authority given to me, let all those who rebelled and attacked my academy be punished by death!"

The sky suddenly lit up with a diagram similar to the one Mr. E summoned just now. The medallion shone brightly and a pillar of light erupted from it to the sky. The moment the light touched the diagram, every single one in front of Arthur's eyes had a tattoo mark over his or her shoulder to shine!

All except him!

"A control tattoo!!" he was surprised to see such a thing here, "but I can't complain, it wasn't used against me yet."

'Ding! Don't worry, if you want I can seal or remove that seal from your body after gaining it.'

"That's… relieving," he said as he wasn't feeling comfortable being controlled by someone else.

As the light shone brighter, and the pillar emerging from the medallion thickened, the tattoos over everyone's shoulders shone.
