With eyes that flickered with interest, Jennifer's mind and focus was solely trained on Jason. The slight change in her body language was noticed by the other cadets, who couldn't help but stare at their Instructor as if they didn't know who she was anymore.
"Why does Coach Jennifer look like she will pounce at the newcomer at any moment?"
"You saw that too, right? I feel some sort of tension between the two of them...maybe they will also fight?"
"Or...maybe, there is something more between them? He arrived with her, and they seem oddly close...but maybe, it's just my imagination?"
Suddenly, the voice of a young man resounded behind the gossipers, who turned around, only to see one of the few cadets that were considered real prodigies.
It was Rex, a human of the Manyr race. Considered to be a mutation, he had awoken the Maest cultivation vein, and was thus cultivating with mana, just like Jason did!
