The next morning.
When Grey and his friends came out, the lady was surprised when she noticed Grey had already broken through to the Fifth stage of the Origin Plane.
'Could it be he was the one who released that aura yesterday?' She asked herself.
The timing of Grey's breakthrough and the release of that aura was just too coincidental. She knew during the previous day, Grey was still only at the Fourth stage.
'No, it shouldn't, the aura I sensed wasn't something a Fifth stage Origin Plane Elementalist should have.' She contemplated.
The aura she felt was stronger than even what a Sixth stage Origin Plane Elementalist has, so she couldn't link Grey's breakthrough with the aura.
"You broke through yesterday." She said.
"Yeah, I was already close to breaking through before I left the trial land." Grey replied.
"That's good, the empire needs more people like you." The lady nodded repeatedly while studying Grey.
