Chapter 1266
Roland was the person in charge of Southrive's Internal Affairs. Following Crystal’s ascension, he retired to his hometown after being fired. And Wayne was his subordinate, who was hired by Novemton's Battle Warrior Department for some reason. The cameras turned toward them as they walked in with their heads lowered. Neither of them dared to show their faces to the cameras. "Danny Walker, Vera Stiles, and Connie Walker have arrived." Following the announcement, a couple in their fifties and a young man with thick stubble and a crutch walked in. The young man was Kieran’s brother and the couple were his parents. Following their entrance, Reena, Wesley, and Anna were brought in as well. Connie and Anna looked to the floor after quickly glancing at one another.When everyone was seated, Adrian said, "Kieran Walker and Victor Hasting's fight from last night garnered the attention of many. Wyvern Peak's legate selection is an important event in which only the most elite students are

Adrian said, "Wayne, you used to be a member of Internal Affairs and Roland's subordinate. You now work for the Battle Warrior Department. My intel states that it was you who verified Victor Hasting's particulars. Is this correct?"Wayne hung his head, seeming a little nervous. Adrian already knew how capable Victor was based on his performance during the last few exams. Thus, the details inside his personal file were of no value. Wayne finally replied, "Yes, sir." He did not dare lie to Adrian because it was a cold hard fact that it was he who approved Victor's registration. "In that case, I’ll question you later. For now, it's time to get to the main topic."Adrian fell silent for a moment. Nobody knew what he was thinking, but everyone, other than the ones being interrogated, was on their toes. Then, Mya walked in and handed Adrian a folder."Sir, this contains all the information Southrive's Battle Warrior Department uncovered. Everything that happened that year is inside.

Wayne took a deep breath, trembling as he replied, "V-Victor's exam results were all falsified. Reena and Wesley paid off someone in the school to change his results.""Is that so? And how are you involved?" Adrian asked. "Wesley and Reena said their son wanted to experience what being in Wyvern Peak was like and wished to participate in the selection. That's why they sought me, and I…""You approved his application for them, correct?" "Y-Yes…"Crash!Adrian grabbed a chair and hurled it at Wayne the moment he heard those words."Argh!" Wayne screamed in agony and collapsed to the floor as blood trickled down his face. Blazing with anger, Adrian boomed, "How dare you make a mockery of Wyvern Peak's rules! You have disrespected me in every way. If death is what you seek, then death I shall give you. Mya!" "Yes, sir!" Mya responded. The next moment, she was standing before Wayne.Splatter!!!Wayne's head was severed from his neck, leaving everyone at the scene stunned. "

Reena, too shocked to say another word, sat limply on the floor. Wesley was similarly too terrified to utter a word. While the crowd silently watched the scene unfold, Adrian said, "Roland Atwell, I hereby sentence you to twenty-five years in Serpentshire Prison." Roland collapsed and broke down, while Mya nodded at Adrian’s orders.Reena and Wesley held their breaths, awaiting their fates. "Victor Hasting has been found guilty of falsifying his results, and his family background doesn't comply with Wyvern Peak's standards for the selection. Hence, he is deemed an ineligible candidate.”Reena started wailing, but Adrian pressed on, "According to Wyvern Peak's rules, Victor will be sent to prison for eighteen years for faking his registration particulars. He will be barred from conducting business, receiving education, or any other benefits Novemton provides its citizens." "No!" Reena wailed upon realizing Victor would be in his forties by the time he was released from prison.

Finally, Adrian walked out from backstage and sat at a round table. Smiling, he said, "My apologies for making you wait. I was taking care of last night's fight.”The hall burst into laughter, while Adrian continued, "You're all probably curious about what happened, but I can tell you now that it's no big deal. You'll find out what happened later, so I won't say anything about it. However, I will say this one thing. I remember every single one of you sitting here, so I'm watching every move you make."The candidates laughed once more. After gesturing for them to quiet down, he said, "Let's get back to business. To be honest, I'm very happy with your exam results. More than two thousand of you have surpassed me, not once, but three times over. More than eight hundred of you scored higher marks than I did in the past by eight times." "Oh wow!" Seeing how surprised the candidates looked, Adrian smiled and said, "Why are you all wowing? Isn't this something worth celebrating?""Of

The candidates became excited upon hearing the announcement of their results. Of course, some were disappointed and hung their heads in disappointment.After twenty minutes, Adrian was finally done announcing everybody's results. The main hall was filled with chatter. He gave them half an hour to discuss while he sat and waited. After thirty minutes, he said, "All right, could you all quiet down for a while please?"Everyone immediately stopped talking and sat up straight. "First of all, I'd like to congratulate those who scored full marks on a job well done.” Adrian clapped, and everyone followed."Secondly, to those who scored slightly lower and did not get full marks in everything, keep your head held high and don't give up. You failed to bring out your A-game this time, but you're all still in the running."I hope that those of you who scored full marks this round will be able to surpass your own limits. I can't wait to see you all perform even better than what you've alrea

"Good luck with your exams three days from now." The candidates saluted Adrian, and the latter did the same. The candidates then exited the hall, getting on planes to fly back to their respective selection venues. Mya walked into the now-empty hall and said, "What was up with you back there? Even I felt my blood boiling as I heard your speech, let alone them."Adrian smiled at her. "What should we do with Kieran?" Mya asked."Is he still here?" Mya nodded. "None of them dared to leave without your order. I think you should deal with this."Logically, Kieran should be disqualified from the selection for getting into a fight with Victor. This proved that he was unable to control his emotions. But since he had a perfectly sound reason for what he did, Adrian knew he had to do something.He asked, "How do you think we should handle the matter?" Mya pursed her lips. "At the risk of taking sides, I have to point out that Kieran is a young boy who's still immature. On the other

“Ms. Mya!" Mya would often stroll around the candidates' dorms and have fun with them, earning her a good reputation.Kieran walked up to her and said, "I'm really sorry. I forgot to say goodbye to you."Mya pouted and rolled her eyes. "Fine, you cheeky boy. Anyway, where do you think you're going when your exams aren’t over yet?"Startled, it took Kieran a while before he asked, "W-Wasn’t I disqualified?""You were, but I helped you turn that around. War Legate Draco says you have a chance if you can score full marks on the next exams. If you fail, you'll be out of the selection for good.""Wh-What? I still have a chance?"Kieran was in slight disbelief, while his brother jumped in joy. Even Danny and Vera were all smiles."I asked him to give you one last chance, so hurry up. Your plane is about to depart. Get back to your venue and don't disappoint me.""I promise I won't! Thank you, Ms. Mya!”"Run along now." "Yes, ma'am!" Kieran saluted her and left with his family.
