Putting away the hologram, Hedrick took in a deep breath and walked towards a small hill. From the small hill, one could see a large area surrounded by walls. At the top was a flag with Mentrol School's badge at the highest point. Looking at the camp ahead of him, Hedrick looked at it with a complicated expression. He stared at it for a while before he got a piece of candy from his robes and threw it into his mouth.
In the camp, a young boy was sitting on his bed when he suddenly looked towards the direction of the small hill. His expression remained the same but could tell that he was filled with anticipation.
~The third mystic heaven of mystery~
A middle aged man looked towards the sky and the looked at with a complicated expression. it was hard to tell if he was happy or sad.
" The stars have finally changed. No one has the powers to stop what is to happen. I'm afraid not even the nine mystic heavens can." He man commented and then turned around to leave.
~Mentrol SCU Campsite~
"Mayla do you have any idea of where Hedrick is right now?"asked Prosper worriedly.
" No but I have a feeling that he has arrived." Mayla replied as she pulled out the tooth Hedrick had lost when they first met.
" I also have the same feeling. " said Xia
" Me too." said Kim.
" Hey Nicholas..." Kim turned and stopped midway his statement trying to look for location of Nicholas. To his surprise Nicholas seemed nowhere to be seen. The rest also looked around but could not find a trace of him. Their expressions turned gloomy.
" Aisha, where is your boss by the way?" asked Nicholas.
" I also don't. I should be asking you since he is your only friend."
" Mmmm... Aisha is right. Where is my hubby?"supported Lynd as she held onto her waist.
" I suddenly have a feeling that he has arrived." said Nicholas.
" You also feel it. I thought it was just my illusion." added Aisha. Lynd said nothing but just nodded her head.
Many other people like Olivier, Lyn, Victor shared such a feeling and could not help look around for that person they shared in interest.
Madam Satu had a feeling of uneasiness all of a sudden like she was getting nearer to danger. She couldn't help to look around around and turn to a particular direction just like the rest.
Many students noticed the unusualness some of the students among them were exhibiting and turned towards the direction they were looking at.
The incident did not escape the eyes of the teachers and they also turned towards a certain direction. Due to their high cultivation realms, their vision was much better and could see further than the students.
At a distance was a stiletto of a young boy holding a bow and arrows at his back could be seen. The whole camp went silent with yearning and curiosity of who the person was. Hedrick strolled majestically as he headed for the gate and stood before the students and teachers.
Like a king looking at his subordinates, he stood with his bow and then then waved at them with the other hand. As everyone was still in daze, Hedrick cleared his throat and began to talk.
" I welcome you all to this year's SCU training in my name. As your leader and great emperor, I hereby show my appreciation by standing before you after everyone has arrived. On this auspicious occasion of this camp's opening, I hereby declare that nothing here will be for free. One must work hard to get it. In this camp, we shall not entertain laziness of any kind. You are here to work and put your name in history. You are here to raise the name of Mentrol School high above the Heavens. I don't want to hear you say I'm weak, I can't do this and that.No! if you have an excuse better quit now before its too late. Only people with guts can stay in this place. Your parents brought you here not because they have the money to pay but because they want something great out of you. You have been granted the best teachers and resources and what is remaining is for you to put them to use. Exploit them, dry them up and produce some fruit. Time shall not wait for any one here but shall move with those that put it to use. You are great beyond what people in you. You don't have to prove yourself to the rest of the world. Make the world see that you are the proof they want to see. You are unlimited but it's you who limits yourself. Together we shall make it to the top. Now quickly line up in front of your teachers in charge of you."
Looking at the students who were still in a daze trying to figure out the speech. Hedrick roared at them.
" What are you waiting for, hurry up and do what I have said."
Three quarters of the students quickly ran to their respectful teachers without second thought.
Hedrick nodded with satisfaction as he headed on his way to the dormitories
