Chapter 30: Team Juggernaut
The next morning, the academy was alive with noise. Whispers darted through the air like arrows with mocking, praising and questioning.
Some students scoffed loudly as Kaelen passed by.
"Tricks. That’s all that was. Mana residue? A gimmick."
"He barely landed a proper blow. He just planted some weird mana trap."
Others, however, looked on with awe.
"He won against a level 21 warrior. That’s not a trick. That’s skill."
"No, it’s strategy. He didn’t rely on raw strength, he outplayed him."
Among the murmurs and judgment, Kaelen walked with annoyed composure, Jered beside him as always but this time a third person had tagged along.
But neither did they reply to the criticism or bask in praise. They were already busy thinking about the name of the group they were supposed to create.
"What should we name our team?" Jered looks toward Kaelen asking for suggestions.
"Not Weak team," Kaelen answered, eyes filled with expectations.
