บท 4: The Existence Beyond A Purple Grade
บรรณาธิการ: Atlas Studios
"Demons also have differences in strength."
Mr. Mitchell's expression slowly became solemn.
The students in the classroom also started to become nervous.
"Firstly, the weakest are the Infant Demons. Just like their names, they are only equivalent to infants."
Upon hearing this, a student immediately heaved a sigh of relief and patted his chest.
"I thought all demons were scary. I didn't think they were like babies."
Hearing this student's words, many students also smiled, and the atmosphere eased a little.
At that moment, Mitchell shook his head and said.
"Pay attention. What I said was, 'Among the demons, they're equivalent to babies.'"
After saying this, the smiles on some of the students' faces froze, as if they had understood something.
As for the others, they still could not understand.
At that moment, Mitchell continued.
"Demons are different from us humans"
"Although there are many humans who were born with special abilities."
"However, we humans need a lot of practice and hard work to fully unleash the power of our superpowers."
"As for demons, they are born with a physical strength that far exceeds that of humans. Their strength and speed are incomparable to humans."
"In other words, if an ordinary person were to encounter a demon, even the weakest Infant Demon, they would have no chance of winning."
At this point, many students could not help but gulp.
One of the students couldn't help but raise his hand and ask.
"Mr. Mitchell, how strong is the Infant Demon?"
This question was undoubtedly what every student wanted to ask.
Even Betta couldn't help but listen carefully.
Seeing all the students look at him, Mitchell said solemnly.
"If you equate it to the superpower grades of humans, the weakest Infant Demons…"
"Are probably at the Orange Grade."
Gasp…
The students in the classroom gasped in unison.
An infant among demons could actually reach the second grade of human beings at birth.
How terrifying!
At this moment, even Lilia looked solemn.
Her current capabilities were only at the Orange Grade.
She could only deal with infants among demons.
Seeing that everyone had a greater understanding of how strong demons were, Mitchell nodded and continued.
"The one stronger than the Infant Demon is the Baby Demon, with a capability equivalent to the Yellow Grade."
"Next is an Adult Demon whose strength is at the Green Grade."
"Then, the Great Demon, the Lord of Demons, and the King of Demons, which correspond to the three levels of Green, Blue, and Purple Grade respectively."
The students all sighed and said.
"I didn't expect that the strongest demons would have the strength of a Purple Grade. That's too terrifying."
When Mr. Mitchell heard this, he shook his head and said.
"No, the King of Demons is still not the strongest demon."
At this moment, the students in the classroom all subconsciously held their breaths, not daring to make even the slightest sound.
They did not even dare to blink and all stared at Mitchell.
"Above the King of Demons are even stronger demons."
"That is a Demon God that has surpassed the Purple Grade."
At that moment, Mitchell seemed to be speaking in his calmest voice.
But every student could tell.
Mitchell's face was covered with a grave expression.
Even his forehead seemed to be sweating.
It was as if just mentioning the Demon God made him feel immense pressure.
Someone couldn't help but ask again.
"Teacher, don't we humans have any experts that can contend against the Demon God?"
Instinctively, everyone thought that Mitchell would change the topic and introduce the strongest person in the world to everyone.
Unexpectedly, Mitchell's expression became even more solemn.
A moment later, he opened his lips and spat out a despairing answer.
"No."
Instantly, the classroom fell into dead silence.
The students felt suffocated by the pressure.
Someone whispered.
"In that case, is there a need for us to learn anything?"
"No one can defeat the Demon God anyway. Let's just wait here and die."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt even more depressed.
Mitchell forced a smile and said.
"Students, don't worry. The Demon God had fallen into a deep slumber 500 years ago."
"Maybe he won't wake up after thousands or tens of thousands of years, or even after the world is destroyed."
This sentence seemed to have some effect, and the atmosphere in the classroom eased a little.
Actually, there was something else Mitchell hadn't said.
That was, perhaps the Demon God would awaken tomorrow and no one could predict the exact time.
"Therefore, it doesn't matter if everyone is doing it for the sake of mankind or to save their own lives."
"Practicing your superpowers is absolutely necessary."
"Otherwise, you might be killed by a tiny Infant Demon before the Demon God awakens."
"Wouldn't that be ridiculous?"
Mitchell had just talked about how powerful a Demon God was. Now, to everyone, it seemed like the Infant Demon was not worth mentioning.
Everyone subconsciously overlooked the fact that even the weakest Infant Demon had the strength of an Orange-Grade.
The atmosphere in the classroom became more cheerful and many students regained their smiles.
"That's right. It would be too embarrassing if we were killed by the Infant Demon."
"I want to learn my special ability properly!"
"I want to join the Demon Hunter Union in the future and become a powerful Demon Hunter!"
Perhaps it was because of what Mitchell had said earlier, many students exclaimed.
Mitchell watched the changes in his students and nodded with relief.
Perhaps the Demon God would awaken one day.
Perhaps there would never be an expert that surpassed the Purple Grade.
However, everyone still had to live in the present and work hard to become stronger.
As a teacher, he was naturally happy to see that everyone was motivated to learn.
"Since everyone is so hardworking, I will teach you how to control your special abilities."
Hearing Mitchell's words, many students cheered excitedly.
Those rebellious boys who had initially wanted to be bad students were also affected by the atmosphere and were slightly excited.
"Next, students, please follow my actions and extend your hand…"
Before he could finish, Mitchell's expression suddenly changed. He turned to look at the horizon in the sky.
Many slow-witted students still had not understood what had happened.
However, two people in the classroom reacted the fastest.
That was Betta and Lilia.
Almost at the same instant Mitchell turned his head, they both looked in that direction.
The sunny skies outside suddenly turned dark.
Dark clouds with an evil aura appeared in the sky.
This was clearly not an ordinary natural phenomenon.
Mitchell immediately pulled off the cross hanging on his chest and cast a Shepherding spell.
A green protective shield covered the entire classroom.
"All students, hide under the table immediately!
"This aura belongs to a Cyan-Grade Great Demon!"
