At the same time, some students watched on with eyes opened wide as Alex left.
âWhat is he doing?â
âHeâs a newbie, and I think he enrolled less than three months ago. Thereâs no way that he could leave.
Does he want to be locked up in the Soul Refining Tower?â
âHaha! Does this guy not know the rules here? Letâs not tell him and watch him walk into his
misfortune. Uncle Drake is not to be provoked. Weâll have a good show when he locks him up in the
tower.â
Everyone continued to stare at Alex, yet nothing happened even after he stepped out of the academy.
Drake, who was sitting in the guard station, had his eyes half-closed. He watched as Alex walked out,
but he did nothing to stop him.
Jinvy immediately rushed over to remind Drake. âUncle Drake, wake up! A newbie is leaving the
academy! He should be captured and locked in the Soul Refining Tower for three days according to
school rules. Donât let him get away!â
However, Drake continued to lay there, his eyes now completely closed. He paid no attention to Jinvy.
âUncle Drake! Uncle Drake! â Jinvy started panicking. She thought that Drake had fallen asleep and
was oblivious to his surroundings. Hence, she decided to give him a push.
However, just as she pushed him, a strong force rebounded onto her arms, causing her to fall to the
ground, rolling backward.
As part of the East Flower Sect, Jinvy had always viewed herself as a princess. So this made the
prideful woman feel extremely insulted as if she had just been publicly slapped across the face.
She couldnât bear to let Alex leave just like that. This was, after all, one of the few chances that she
could mess with Alex Rockefeller.
So, she yelled into Drakeâs ear. âUncle Drake, wake up, wake up! A newbie just left the campus! Arenât
you the guard here? Why arenât you stopping him? Youâre not doing your job!â
Some students who were aware of Drakeâs status were shocked to hear what Jinvy said.
âThis idiot is being ridiculous! Does she not want a peaceful school life? How dare she provoke Uncle
Drake like that?â
As expected, Drake opened his eyes abruptly and shot her a dirty glare. âYouâre so annoying! Do you
think Iâm old and blind? He graduated!â
âWhat?â
âHe graduated?â
Many were stunned after hearing this.
âHow could a newbie, who had only been here for ten days, be able to graduate so quickly?â
Jinvy couldnât believe this as well. âYou must have been mistaken. He really is a newbie, not a
graduate! I swear on my life that he isnât.â
Thinking back on how Alex graduated, Drake couldnât help but feel angry. This was because he knew
that Alex didnât graduate like every other typical student but simply lucked his way out.
However, to prevent any more pestering, he said, âNow that he got past the Soul Refining Tower, are
you about to tell me that he hasnât graduate? I think you should go away and live your sad, pathetic life.
Stop interrupting my slumber.â
Upon hearing Drakeâs words, everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning. This news was just
that shocking.
âHe got past the tower⦠And that was how he earned his graduation certificate?â
âIs that really true?â
âBut both our principles couldnât even achieve that! Only Commander Benmore could reach the ninth
level of the tower!â
The news spread throughout the academy like wildfire as if it had just grown a pair of wings.
At the time, Alex had hopped onto the Sword of the Universe. By forming an ancient talisman with his
fingers, he inserted it into the formation blueprint of the sword and rushed off to California.
After studying the thirty-six variants of ancient talismans in the formation blueprint of the sword, his
Imperial Sword Flight had become multiple times faster. This was because Alex had inserted talismans
into the formation blueprint from time to time.
An hour later, he managed to reach California, rushing immediately to the Assex Villa.
However, just as he entered the villa, Alex was shocked to see what was happening inside.
His mother-in-law, Claire, was wearing a tight yoga suit. All four of her limbs were stuck up into the air,
her position very alluring as well. Moreover, she seemed to be yelping for some reason.
