Max was also taken back by the change in his attitude. He thought the boy was interesting. The speed showed by Raven also surprised him. He was only a Rank 3 intermediate stage Star Knight. Max could dodge the attacks easily due to his body cultivated with the Titan body art.
The titan body art did not only increase his physical strength and endurance, but also his speed. You know after cultivating the exercise into fifth level his body is equivalent to a Rank 5 Star Beast. It does not only represent his strength but also his speed.
He does not think anyone below Rank 4 can dodge the attack. That indicates that the speed of Raven is on par with a Rank 4 Star Knight. He has to admit Raven was also very talented both in speed and also cultivation. Reaching Rank 3 intermediate stage at the age of 13 was not something many genius Star Knights could achieve.
'It seems that the academy indeed contains many genius.'
Max shook his head and went to the bed for cultivation. He cultivated till the sky went dark. He got up and headed to the dining hall when he saw the room empty. After he had his dinner he cultivated for some time and fell sleep.
'It seems like he is a cultivation madman. No wonder he is so strong.'
Raven thought seeing Max eating, sleeping and cultivation. If Max knew what he was thinking, he would definitely rebuke with a smile. He was already used to a world full of entertainment, so here he did not find anything that could relieve his boredom except cultivation. Otherwise even though he aspires to be at the top, he is not a machine to work hard all day.
Early in the morning after the sun rose at the horizon, Max woke up and started warming up and ran a few laps.
By the time he'd finished his training session, the sky outside had already turned bright. After cleaning himself up, Max walked over to the dining hall for some food. He bought a some eggs, bread and a few pots of stewed veggies. Max usually had a large appetite due to the Titan Body Art, which required a lot of nutrients.
Fortunately, the breakfast was cheap. It only cost a few copper coins. He did not want to borrow money from Astoria all the time. The money he had now came from Astoria. He has exchanged some low quality herbs which can be measured by golden coins, not the precious ones. Astoria wanted to lend him money but had to accept the herbs reluctantly when Max refused to borrow money if she did not take them.
He strolled around the campus as there was still more than two hours before the class starts. The academy had an elegant and heroic atmosphere combined. There was a variety of bountiful and lush flora within the campus along with a range of statues of soldiers that were sculptured so neatly that the aura emitted from them made one feel like they were in a battlefield.
Seeing that it was almost the time for the class to start, Max started walking towards the building in the teaching area, to the class he was assigned.
The large teaching area was extremely lively. The new students who were now wearing white-colored uniforms printed with a bronze shield with two swords unsheathed behind it, on the left pocket. It is the symbol of the Storm Wind Empire.
He walked into the classroom leisurely as there was still about ten minutes before the class starts. At that moment, the spacious classroom had already been filled with people. It was because the students were very excited and curious to how their classes were, they had arrived very early. As he arrived at the last moment, there were a very few number of seats left for him to choose from.
"Max!"
When he was going to sit on a seat randomly, he saw Raven waving his hands enthusiastically and pointing to the seat next to him which was empty. See him waving eagerly, Max walked to him and at in his next seat.
At that moment, a person walked in the classroom's door. It was a tall middle aged man with a short black hair and deep eyes. He wore a set of black robes. Max was extremely sensitive to murderous aura. He can sense a huge murderous aura looming the man opposite.
'He should be a member of army in the past.'
Max judged from his temperament, though he could not detect his cultivation level.
He was the teacher of the new students of this section. When they saw the teacher enter, the previously noisy classroom immediately quieted down as all their gazes gathered on the teaching platform.
The man's gaze calmly swept across the crowd from left to right, immediately causing everyone to feel heavy. They felt huge pressure because of his presence.
"I am Marcus, your class teacher for the freshmen year. I don't care about the talent of anyone here because without a minimum talent you wouldn't have been allowed to join the academy. What I care is whether you work hard. If you feel that you cannot endure hardship, you can withdraw from here and apply for a section transfer order from the dean."
Everyone that can enter the academy is an elite at their level, so they are very proud. How can they choose to back down? They all nodded their heads.
It's just that Marcus did not show any appreciation. He knows most of the people will leave here after one day training.
Max was also interested in the this teacher. He does not know what the academy will teach. He can feel from his aura that this teacher is definitely not a Rank 6 Star Knight, who are allotted as the teachers of outer court.
"The first training course I give you is to exercise your physical strength. All of you line up in a row outside the class at the training zone number 2."
He instructed them and walked out of the classroom. Everyone followed his orders and stood in a row neatly in front of him. Max called the first guy to come forward as he tapped him at a certain points on his body with his star force and asked him to stand aside.
He beckoned for the next one to come and repeated the same. When it was Max's turn he stepped forward as Marcus tapped on his body at the exact same points as previous people. Max obediently let him do what he wanted. He does not think the person opposite will harm him in the academy. As Max watched him tap the points, he felt that his star power was sealed.
He tried to absorb star power from the stars into his star seed which worked. But the star power inside his star seed could not be circulated through the meridians of his body. So he cannot use star power.
He memorized the points where Marcus tapped, with his mental power. The teacher only used a power of Rank 5 Star Knight to block the acupoints. If he uses all of his strength, he can unseal the lock. But he did not do that, as he wanted to see what the teacher intends to do.
