The Ancient Genes

Max felt his world turn around for a second as the white light coiled around him. The next instant, he felt a spacial disturbance. It was a bit similar to Mr. Cool's ability but the difference between two was probably huge.

He could sense a huge amount of mana behind this white light playing a crucial role to make the teleportation possible.

This process definitely wasn't possible to be used in actual battle as no one would be able to spare so much mana for a single teleportation.

When the light faded, Max found himself standing in a room. He was quick on the move and had already pulled his blind fold above again.

He could feel a couple of figures controlling a huge formation in the room. On the other side, a man sat on the chair a bit higher to the ground looking down on Max.

"I don't think I was suppose to be out yet. Don't sat me that you made a mistake.." Max said as he looked at the man on the chair who was probably in charge here.

He was already on his guard, it was the Ancient Families here after all.

Max had been careful to not entered their radars but now, he was not sure if he had been found or not.

"You have already got your guard up. Not bad indeed. You are truly Zack's son.." The man said with a smile. This person here was from the Kingsman Family and one of the Lord's trusted aide. He had fought against Zack back when he had forcibly tried to enter the Academy grounds to rescue Max during his fight with Victor.

"You know my father?" Max asked as he looked at him.

"Well, isn't he famous?" the man asked.

"I doubt he is as strong as you." Max looked at him. This guy was really spooking him, he couldn't feel his presence at all. And he didn't dare to release his domain afraid that his spirit energy would be sensed and his identity would be out in no time.

"Well, too bad for you. You have been disqualified from taking part in the competitions any more…"

Max's expression changed and a frown emerged on his face, "What do you mean I was disqualified? I don't remember doing anything to deserve this."

"You are too strong to be playing around here. You realize it too don't you?"

"I almost died in there." Max said as he looked at him in disbelief.

"You need to compete with your peers, not the unbeatable monsters….the thing which would need the entire student body to beat got thrashed by less than 10 students because of your presence. Does that make sense to you?"

Max's face twitched but he still maintained his calm. Like in hell, he was going to let go of this opportunity to get the spirit shells.

"I don't remember any clause saying that you can't be too strong when I was signing the participation form."

"Is it?" The man looked at the person by his side and spoke, "You heard him, go and add it now. One can't be too strong. Anyone with a strength exceeding Expert Tier are not allowed in this competition."

"Y-You!!" Max clearly hadn't expected that.

"You will have your chance to speak. Come with me, you should argue with the people who took you out of the competition and not me…" the man said as he got up and with a wave of his hand, Max suddenly felt his body losing control. The next instant, he was already up above in the sky.

He couldn't even manage to catch a glimpse of the man's movement.

This man was definitely a Supreme Tier Mage.

….

Mage Association, Capital.

"Do you really think it's enough? You better give me some solid reason in your defense, Zatch?" The Lord of the Storm Family asked with a smirk on his face.

"You are in no position to say that to me. You all couldn't control your own people and ended up conducting experiments on children to raise a wielder and now you have the guts to say this to me?" Zatch sneered at them.

"Do you expect me to give that child to you to satisfy your curiosity?" He further said glaring down at him. "Remember one thing, if you dare to make a move on that child and I find out it's you, I will wipe your family out before the demons.."

"Y-You!" The Lord of Storm family obviously couldn't take that lying down.

Things had already gone above the level of being peaceful.

Everyone's face turned for the worse with Lord Zatch's words. He was usually calm, but you definitely wouldn't want to see him angry.

People immediately became tense when the two monsters burst forth in anger and a terrifying aura immediately surged out from them.

"Enough!"

An aged voice sounded and everyone in the room suddenly felt a hammer slam down on their body.

Lorenz Lord's expression changed as he felt his body became heavier, he could barely move himself.

Terrifying!

Even the Lords of the Ancient Families were not in a much better condition. No, it looked like they were doing way worse.

Their faces had turned pale and they had definitely recognised the voice.

The Lord of the Storm house looked the worst. The voice had scared the hell out of him.

He looked at Zatch only to see his lips curling up into a mocking smile and immediately realised that this b*starts had already known about it.

Those Half Dead monsters had come out of their grave. If one of them was here, then didn't it mean the rest had come out as well.

It meant that his own family's Progenitor was here as well. He was definitely screwed this time around.

As everyone was wondering what was going around, five figures appeared in the room and the pressure disappeared.

They looked very old and could truly be called grandpas and grandma unlike these people who really looked young for their age.

The Lord of the Ancient Families didn't dare to sit and immediately got up and lower themselves a bit.

The Lord of the Noble Houses unconsciously stood up as well.

No one dared to even let out a breathe.

A second earlier they had felt that tyrannical strength which was capable of crushing them like ants but now, there was no sign of it.

They might have thought of them as common old folks if not for witnessing that frightening strength earlier.

The five old people quietly took the seats left by the Lord of the Ancient Families and made themselves comfortable.

The old man with a long thin beard sitting at the place left by the Storm Lord, suddenly spoke, "Kids these days really say things, you don't expect them too…"

Storm Lord's face twitched but he still stood there with his head lowered.

"Who would have expected these people to turn into cats and mice….it wasn't like this before…" the old lady at Leviathan's seat suddenly spoke.

"It was a good thing that we took over nurturing the generation after them, otherwise they would have ended up just like these bunch of spoiled brats as well.." The old man at Kingsman's seat chimed in.

The five Lord's of the Ancient Family all had their faces contorting with each new remark made.

It was true though, their generation was like cat and mice. They were always watching each other and ready to bit if the opportunity arrived.

It was not like these before them and previously, the five Ancient Families really stood together.

Seeing that the situation could worsen if the next generation was allowed to grow under these people, the old monsters took a step out to guide the new generation which consisted of Max's Master, Stark..Arcane's Headmaster, William...Anna's Master, Ethena, Derek's Master, Leo Von and many other.
