Chapter 2161. Training is Over
The elites of Sky Palace, the Dragon, the Destroyed, the Buddha, and the Demon were still waiting outside of Metal World. Two months had elapsed by now, and they had yet to see any of their Marquises return. As each new day passed without any sign of their students, their moods became darker and darker. They were finally beginning to settle on the painful acceptance that their people might never come back.
“Some… something is coming out of Metal World…” murmured a Dragon that had been keenly watching Metal World.
As he spoke, everyone else began to react, as well. The elites that were waiting outside of the planet inched closer, staring intently at the magnetic storms that shrouded the surface of Metal World.
Someone emerged from the clouds. One… two… and then there were more. The dots emerging from the clouds continued to grow until they resolved into familiar faces.
“Dragon Eight! It’s Dragon Eight!” a Dragon King screamed.
The elites of the other races reacted the same way when their people emerged from the storm.
But as the last of them came through the clouds, the Sky Palace elders looked more ecstatic than ever, while a gradual glumness crept into the hearts of the others.
This was because there were more Sky Palace students than the students of all the other races combined. The Sky Palace team was entirely intact, but the same couldn’t be said of the others. The other groups were in a sorry state, and even the survivors had sustained grievous injuries.
Han Sen took Yuya with him to debrief the Sky Palace elders on what had transpired. The elders were delighted to see one hundred students all accounted for, only a little worse for wear. One elder was so exuberantly happy with the results, he said, “Good! Well done, you guys. There is no need for you to say anything more. You should go home and take a well-earned rest.”
