Albert Martin had just sat cross-legged on a red lotus leaf and was about to regulate his breath and start cultivating when he heard some commotion around him. He raised his eyes and saw Henry walking over from the purple lotus leaves in the middle, surrounded by a group of cronies.

Henry was rather tall and strong, with a fair complexion. However, the sinister look in his eyes made him seem rather gloomy. There was a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, and he swept a contemptuous glance at Albert Martin.

"Oh, isn't this Albert Martin? What's the matter? Are you pretending to cultivate here again? I thought you didn't dare to come to the academy anymore," Henry said in a sarcastic tone.

Albert Martin's expression remained calm and was not affected by Henry's provocation. He slightly raised his eyes and said faintly, "Henry, what do you want?"

Henry sneered and took a step forward, saying, "I just don't like the look of you. Do you dare to have a fight with me?"

Albert Martin shook his head and said, "I'm not interested."

Henry sneered again. He waved his hand, and immediately his group of cronies started shouting, "Are all the people in Class Two cowards?"

Many unpleasant words kept coming out.

The students in Class Two around them showed anger on their faces, but they didn't dare to provoke Henry, so they were angry but dared not speak out.

"Albert Martin, do you still want to be a coward? Are you going to involve the whole Class Two because of you, a coward?" Henry smiled darkly.

Henry deliberately said this to deliberately anger the students in Class Two, so as to stir up conflicts among them. The students in Class Two didn't dare to do anything to him, but they would turn their resentment towards Albert Martin, forcing Albert Martin to come forward to solve the problem.

At this time, Simon's voice came from behind, "Shut up, all of you!"

Simon glared at Henry and said, "Let's have a couple of rounds."

Henry sneered and said, "You're really like a lingering ghost. How dare you oppose me?"

Simon was about to speak when Albert Martin stopped him, "Don't bother with this kind of trash." Then he looked at Henry's group of cronies and said, "Remember them all. I'll arrange for someone to teach them how to behave later."

Although the Martin family had many problems nowadays, after all, it was one of the four major families in the Nuhester Empire, and its foundation was still quite profound. It was very easy to send a few experts to teach them a lesson.

Hearing this, Henry's cronies backed away one after another. The students around were also dumbfounded. It didn't make sense for students to play around at school and then ask their families to stand up for them.

Henry's cronies knew that Albert Martin had such an ability, so they were so scared that they all shut up.

Henry sneered and said in a low voice, "Albert Martin, you're really shameful. You still ask your family for help?"

"You have the guts to ask the people from your Mill family to come and beat me up," Albert Martin said with a smile.

Henry opened his mouth but was left speechless. If he asked his family to beat Albert Martin, the Mill family wouldn't dare to do it either. They didn't dare to bear the consequences that would be caused. Before the Martin family was completely destroyed, they definitely wouldn't dare to do it and only dared to play dirty tricks behind the scenes.

So Henry was left standing there, not knowing what to say.

In the distance, several figures were watching all this. "Haha, this Albert Martin is quite interesting," said an old man with gray hair.

This person was exactly Walton, the dean of the Navia Academy, who had extremely high prestige in Navia City.

"How could the two in the Martin family have such a rascal of a son? The students' little disputes still need to be solved by asking their families," someone said.

The person who spoke was Lamb, the instructor of Class One in the Navia Academy. It was he who had kicked Albert Martin from Class One to Class Two.

"Instructor Lamb, your words are too harsh. Henry clearly knew that Albert Martin had no soul, yet he still went to find trouble with him. It's really terrifying when you think about it carefully," Instructor Hill said.

Lamb argued, "The competition among students helps them work harder in cultivation."

Hill was too lazy to argue with him on this topic.

Then Lamb turned to the dean and said, "Dean Walton, the big exam is coming soon. We don't have enough purple lotus leaves in Class One. I hope the dean can allocate five more purple lotus leaves to us."

"I don't agree!"

The person who spoke was Hill. Now, apart from the ten purple lotus leaves in Class Two, the rest were all in Class One. If Lamb wanted five purple lotus leaves, he could only take them from Class Two.

Lamb and Hill started arguing because of the distribution of the purple lotus leaves.

Lamb said, "Hill, you know how many outstanding students we have in Class One. They are much better than those in other classes. Giving them better resources will make their achievements far exceed those of other students."

Hill snorted coldly and said, "Class One is excellent, but are all the students in Class Two useless? There are 50 purple lotus leaves in the Soul Power Lake. Your Class One has already occupied 40 purple lotus leaves. Aren't you satisfied yet?

    Lamb snorted coldly and said, "The purple lotus leaves can have a better effect when used by our Class One than by other classes. I'm not targeting Class Two. That's just the truth."Hill said scornfully, "You want to monopolize the school's resources, yet you put it so nicely. Isn't it just that you want to train a few more students to enter the Nuhester Advanced Academy, add luster to your resume, and finally get promoted to the Nuhester Advanced Academy yourself?"Lamb's face suddenly became much gloomier as he said, "Hill, don't slander me."The other instructors of the Navia Academy, who were standing by, saw the two quarreling and quickly tried to persuade them.Old Dean Walton had a bit of a headache. Purple lotus leaves were extremely scarce, and every class wanted them. After all, the achievements of students were also related to the instructors' promotions. Lamb had been pestering him for a long time, and he had been putting it off. It seemed that he had to give an answer tod

    In the stands in the distance, Rosalie stretched her body lazily. The curves outlined by her clothes made even the ladies around her look envious, not to mention those vigorous young men, who all showed greedy expressions one by one.Just came to have a look since I was bored. At this moment, a voice came. Rosalie turned her head to look and saw a girl as beautiful as a fairy with long flowing hair. It was Kelly Stephen."Sister Kelly," Rosalie greeted her hurriedly. Kelly was the top student in Navia Academy. She was not only good-looking but also powerful. Many male students were head over heels for her. If it hadn't been for Emily being so dazzling in the previous session, Kelly would have become a legend in Navia Academy.So Rosalie adored Emily the most, and Kelly came second.When these two stood together, as the most outstanding people in terms of appearance and temperament in the academy at present, they immediately attracted countless gazes.Rosalie asked curiously, "Sister Ke

    Bob was clearly angry. He charged straight at Albert, swung the big knife in his hand and slashed at Albert. Immediately, Albert displayed his speed movement technique and dodged to the left. Then he picked up the iron rod and smashed it towards Bob's chest. Only then did Bob react, but it was too late to draw back his knife to block his chest. So he immediately gathered his soul power to protect his chest.Bob thought to himself that after all, Albert didn't have soul power, so his attack power was limited. As long as he used his soul power to defend against it, it would be his turn to counterattack next, and he would surely make Albert pay the price.While Bob was thinking like this, the shadows of the rod came at his chest like lightning.Bang! Severe pain came from Bob's chest. At that moment, Bob felt that the soul power condensed on his chest was scattered like cotton, and a sharp pain came from his chest. Before he could think, his body flew out of the arena and he passed out.A

    Everyone stared at this scene in shock. Albert had brought too many incredible things today, and for a moment, people were a bit dumbfounded. "How come he has the water-element soul power?" Rosalie said in shock. At this time, everyone was impacted by the blue element soul power on Albert's body. It was as if they had gone back to that time when that talented young man was around, just like in the old days. David's expression at this moment was extremely interesting. Perhaps this was the last scene he wanted to see. How dazzling Albert had been back then. He didn't want to see Albert rise again. He turned his head to look at Kelly. There was a sparkle in her eyes as she looked at Albert, which hit him even harder. He slowly clenched his fists and stared at Albert with a sinister look in his eyes. Lamb was extremely shocked. "What's going on? How did Albert suddenly have the water-element spiritual power? Did he take some illegal pills?" Hill was also in shock, but upon hearing Lam

    Given the potential Albert has shown now, I'm afraid Mentor Lamb from Class One must be feeling really bad. This is such a slap in the face for him. Rosalie looked at Albert's back and said in disbelief, "Didn't he have no soul? How could it suddenly appear?" Kelly said, "Li Luo's situation isn't unheard of. Some rare treasures can make it happen, though they are extremely scarce. However, it's not impossible for Albert's parents to have the ability to do so. Kelly's uncle is the president of the Clark Chamber of Commerce in Navia City, so she has learned a lot from what she has seen and heard." "Why didn't he use that kind of rare treasure until now?" Rosalie said. Kelly smiled and said, "I guess it requires some special conditions. Only Albert knows the details." Kelly's eyes rested on Albert. "Have you finally solved the problem of the empty soul? Can you catch up in the next month?" Mentor Hill on the stands could hardly believe the result in front of him. Lamb, on the other

    Albert understood what he said, so he frowned and muttered to himself, "You fool. What can you do to me?" On the stands, David saw that Albert was provoking him and immediately said angrily, "How arrogant!" "Stop pretending. Do you think a five-star soul can make you return to your former self?" At this time, the news that Albert had defeated the three students from Class One spread like wildfire in the academy. Immediately, all the students in Class One lost face. Meanwhile, the news of Albert's five-star water-element soul also spread throughout the entire academy, and the students were all discussing it. "Acquiring a soul later in life? I've never heard of such a thing. I didn't expect Albert could really turn his situation around." "I heard it was a rare elixir left by his parents. Alas... Having good parents is better than anything else." "A five-star water-element soul isn't that powerful. It's just above average in the academy. And there's only one month left until the acad

    Four-star soul liquid is worth about a thousand gold coins on the market, while five-star soul liquid costs as much as five thousand gold coins. This is definitely an expensive consumable. If Albert only needed a few bottles of soul liquid, it probably wouldn't be a problem. But Cherry understood that what Albert wanted was probably hundreds of bottles of soul liquid... That would be no small amount. Cherry's expression changed several times. However, to Albert's surprise, in the end, she didn't refuse but nodded and said, "I understand. I'll try to meet your needs." Albert was touched and said, "Sister Cherry, you're so kind." "Then could you help me get dozens of vials of five-star soul liquid first?" Cherry rubbed her eyebrows with her small hand and said, "Yes, I can. But if you need so much again next time, our funds will run out." The Martin family's various incomes in Navia City in a year were more than three hundred thousand gold coins. And previously, about one hundred

    Along the way, when Albert walked by, there were still students greeting him with smiles.There was also a young girl who said with a grin, "Albert, you look so handsome today." In response to these greetings, Albert smiled and replied, then went back to his seat. Meanwhile, Simon beside him stared at him intently. "Hey, you're a man. Could you stop looking at me like that?" Albert frowned and said. Simon gave a sly smile and then pretended to be melancholy as he said, "It seems that I, the number one in Class Two, will have to give up my position in the future." Albert replied somewhat impatiently, "Who cares about that stuff? Just look further ahead, okay?" While the two were talking, Hill also walked into the training ground. It was obvious that he was in an extremely good mood, with a smile on his usually serious face. Dear classmates, Class One handed over five purple lotus leaves to our Class Two today. So starting from today, we have five more purple lotus leaves. Hearing

    In the crowd, some spiritual light masters hesitated for a moment, and then one after another, someone said, "Vice - Chief Ansel is indeed the best candidate to be the Chief of the Soul Liquid Hall."What these people said was actually not wrong. If we set aside Ansel's stance and only consider his ability and seniority, he was truly the most suitable candidate.However... how could this stance be set aside?So, upon hearing these voices, he understood that compared to him, this unfamiliar young master, these spiritual light masters would surely be more inclined towards the familiar Ansel.But he wasn't angry. Instead, he stepped forward, stood on the steps, and looked down at the numerous spiritual light masters present. He said calmly, "Do you all know why I was able to raise the branch of the Soul Liquid Hall in Navia City to its current level in just two months?"Many spiritual light masters looked at each other in confusion. They were indeed a bit puzzled. After all, Albert was o

    Elder Fred was so angry that his eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and his face was ashen.He knew very well that Ansel was clearly taking this opportunity to stage a coup today. Arno's betrayal was, instead, a perfect chance for him.Elder Fred also understood that in terms of seniority and ability, there was no one in the Soul Liquid Hall who could compare with Ansel at present. If someone else were to take this position, the spiritual light masters of the Soul Liquid Hall, who were already in an angry mood, would surely not agree.If things got out of hand and these remaining spiritual light masters also left one after another, then the Soul Liquid Hall would really be paralyzed.For a moment, even he was caught in a dilemma.Just as he was in a state of confusion, a calm voice suddenly broke through the commotion and came straight in."I think... I can give it a try to take the When that sudden voice rang out, many spiritual light masters in the crowd were stunned. Then, an impati

    "Although I'm a spiritual light master, I'm only a two - star one for now... With this ability, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be the Chief of the Soul Liquid Hall, right?"Emily smiled and said, "In terms of ability, you may indeed not be qualified to be the Chief of the Soul Liquid Hall. But you have other advantages, namely your identity.""You're the young master of the Martin family. If you come to take charge of the headquarters of the Soul Liquid Hall, I'm afraid even those stubborn old men in the Soul Liquid Hall won't have a reason to refuse. Also, you're not completely without achievements. Under your and Anna's leadership, the Soul Liquid Hall in Navia City has achieved excellent results. This is also your advantage.""So, actually, even you yourself didn't notice that you're the best candidate for the Chief position."Anna and Cherry beside them also had a slight glint in their eyes. Come to think of it, Albert really seemed quite suitable.Seeing this, Albert pondered sl

    There's another important point. The other party didn't leave earlier or later, but chose to do these heartless things precisely when the young master arrived at the Martin family headquarters... If anyone says this isn't aimed at him, no one would believe it."Quiet."Emily's cold voice rang out in the noisy and chaotic council hall, and immediately everyone fell silent."This is a well - calculated move by the Baker family against the Martin family." There was no obvious anger on Emily's beautiful and smooth cheeks. Except for her cold eyes, she didn't seem to be enraged by this.However, this calmness instead made the anger of the people present gradually subside."It's the Baker family again..." Albert sat down in the seat next to Emily. Since arriving in Newhurst City, he had learned from Rebecca about the ill - will of the Baker family towards him. And now, they had carefully prepared such a "generous gift" for him. They really went to great lengths."The Baker family must have

    In the council hall, the lights were bright and dazzling, causing Albert to narrow his eyes slightly.When he opened them again, he saw that behind the long tables on both sides of the council hall, figures were sitting quietly. At this moment, all of their gazes, filled with complex emotions, were fixed on him.The atmosphere in the council hall seemed oddly stagnant for a moment.It was not until Emily's voice rang out, "Aren't you all going to greet the young master?"Only then did figures in the conference hall stand up one after another and say respectfully, "Hello, young master."Albert also nodded with a smile as a gesture of greeting, "Hello, everyone."Gazes landed on Albert's face. On this extremely handsome face, they saw the shadows of Andrew and Charlotte. However, the young man in front of them didn't have the intimidating aura and pressure of those two. What he had was only the youthfulness of a young man.Regarding Albert, the young master of the Martin family, in fact

    Albert couldn't help but burst out laughing because the fierce look of the person in front of him was such a huge contrast to his character. Who could have thought that someone who could stop a child from crying just by his appearance was actually too afraid to kill a chicken himself?People all said that the pig - killing knife on Joseph's waist probably had never seen blood in its life and was just for show.However, after laughing, a sense of 亲切感 welled up. After all, the person in front of him was indeed an old - timer in the Martin family, a truly trustworthy person."Uncle Joseph, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me again in the future," Albert said as he reached out and patted Joseph's greasy and thick arm.Joseph was touched and held Albert's hand, saying, "I've long wanted to go to Naxvia City to take care of you, but Emily wouldn't let me. Now that you've come to Newhurst City, I'll definitely fatten you up."He touched Albert's arm and sighed, "Young master, you're

    "And Emily is so biased. She even gave me a beating," Rebecca said unhappily. In the past, Emily had a good relationship with her, treating her like a younger sister. But now she realized that Emily obviously valued Albert more."I think you're the one being childish... What's the relationship between them? If you want to compete with Albert, aren't you just humiliating yourself?" Gaspar said helplessly."I'm not competing with him... It's you, big brother. Emily has already said she's not interested in you," Rebecca rolled her eyes at her big brother and said.But Gaspar just laughed it off and said, "Do I need to be told this? Can't I feel it during our usual interactions?""And someone as outstanding as Emily has the right to say such things."But Rebecca was a bit displeased and said, "Although you can't compare with Emily, big brother, at least you're a hundred times better than that Albert, right?""You're now a four - star student at the Newhurst Advanced Academy with the stren

    "There's no way around it. If I don't boost the income in Navia City, I'm afraid I can't even support myself," Albert said helplessly."Sister Cherry should have told you that I need a large amount of soul liquid, right? I've consumed quite a bit in these two months."Albert stretched out his palm, and blue water - element soul power condensed in his palm. The purity surging within that soul power made Emily's expression change slightly."On that day in the old mansion, when you just solved your soul problem, your soul level didn't seem to be this high," she said.Judging from the purity of the soul power surging in Albert's palm, Emily would believe that he possessed seven - star water - element soul power.But she clearly remembered that when Albert solved his soul problem that day, his soul was far from having this quality.And the current result should be due to the consumption of that large amount of soul liquid.However, what made Emily a little puzzled was that in just over two

    However, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he could only endure it. He couldn't just blurt it out forcefully; that would be too embarrassing.So Albert could only suppress his discomfort."Let's go. Let's go see Sister Cherry and Anna. I haven't seen them for a while," Emily said. Then, she led the Crimson Horse Beast, took long strides, and walked down the hillside.Seeing this, Albert could only follow listlessly.The two walked down the slope. The evening sunlight fell from the sky, draping over them like a rosy shawl. From a distance, it seemed as if they were wrapped in light, becoming one.Cherry and Anna were standing outside the carriage. They looked at the two people approaching from afar. Then the former smiled and said, "Judging from their appearance, these two are really well - matched."Anna nodded in agreement. Even though she had never cared much about appearance, she had to admit that among the men she had met, few could compare with Albert in terms of looks alone.
