Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Reasons and Public Opinionl

Translator: 549690339

Harold Andrews has always held himself in high regard.

He was born on Mettler Island, the largest island in the Stormy Sea, and his wizard qualifications are at the advance fourth rank, just a step away from the standard of the lower fifth rank.

However, among the twenty-three selected New Bloods, he was neither considered as the best nor the worst, which made his situation extremely awkward.

In this batch of the college, the only one with advanced fifth rank qualifications is from the Mettler Island New Blood.

Mettler Island also has two geniuses with lower fifth rank’s aptitude.

On the way to the harbor where the ship was docked, because the journey was long and the wizard recruiting the New Bloods was not in a particular hurry, it took them some time.

The more the time, the more the stories.

The other New Bloods were always flattering the three geniuses with fifth rank qualifications.

But Harold Andrews found himself all alone.

The other two New Bloods with advanced fourth rank qualifications didn’t see anything out of the ordinary about Harold Andrews.

!!..

New Bloods with intermediate and lower fourth rank aptitudes felt that if they were to curry favor with someone, it should definitely be someone much more powerful.

The remaining ones with advance third rank qualifications, naturally followed the crowd.

Harold Andrews found himself inadvertently overlooked.

This deeply humiliated the usually proud and arrogant Harold Andrews.

He swore – he must make these people who looked up to the higher-ups and despised the lower-ranked ones, see him with new eyes!

So, upon entering Ravensmouth Biological and Medical College, Harold Andrews was determined to shine more brilliantly than Lanny Taylor – the top genius with advanced fifth rank qualifications who had also chosen to enter the college!

Moreover, he intended to force the others who entered the college to look up to him!

So, Harold Andrews devoted himself to studying the Meditation Technique fervently, immersing himself in deep meditation whenever his spirit could bear it.

The hardships he had to endure and the number of times he felt extreme tension leading to retching, nausea, dizziness – only Harold himself knew.

Efforts pay off, hard work leads to gains.

Finally, Harold Andrews became proficient in the first level of meditation and was promoted to the First Rank Wizard Apprentice, becoming the first attractive figure from the New Blood group to report to the college.

Name and profit, all in his hands.

Harold felt like he was at the peak of his life.

However, before Harold could enjoy the praises of the people for too long, news that stole his thunder kept pouring in.

They talked about Link Grande expertly instigated internal strife and conflict within the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”;

About how Link Grande calmly confronted adversity and counterattacked Erick Burnalis who ambushed him;

About how Link Grande surpassed all the geniuses with fifth rank qualifications and came first in the midterm exams…

Instantly, the “Forum” was filled with rumors about Link Grande.

Most of the gossip among the New Bloods was also about that guy.

Link Grande, Link Grande, his name could be heard everywhere.

What Harold Andrews found most intolerable was Link Grande’s haughtiness (he never socialized) and his arrogance (he was never part of any faction).

Moreover, everyone had attractive fellow villagers – why was it that while Harold Andrews struggled to exchange a few words with Lanny Taylor, Link Grande had a Jasmine Kidman constantly sticking by his side?

Even if Jasmine Kidman’s qualifications were two grades lower than Lanny Taylor’s, she was prettier.

A soft, cute, sweet-talking, attention-loving little girl spending all day around Link Grande, constantly trying to please him, while Link Grande still maintained his aloof demeanor – who wouldn’t want to kill him?

Harold Andrews had hated Link Grande for a long time.

But what made Harold Andrews make up his mind to deal Link Grande a blow was the incessant comparisons people kept making between him and Link Grande.

People kept saying things like, they both held fourth rank qualifications, they were among the first five New Bloods to report their promotion to the college, but Link Grande was much better than Harold Andrews…

All kinds of nonsense, always finding a way to his ears.

Harold Andrews was burning with anger.

Driven by jealousy and a desire to clear any obstacles before the duel in the two zones.

After careful observation and meticulous planning, Harold Andrews decided to start with the five gentlemen, gradually painting Link Grande as a thorn in the flesh for most New Bloods.

His father used similar methods to take down the family’s biggest competitor.

The reason he operated behind the scenes, using untraceable methods to incite the five brothers who had been beaten,

was because Harold Andrews felt he could not understand Link Grande, and there was a sense of fear in his heart.

This guy would actually take revenge seriously and wasn’t afraid to kill in person!

After leaving the detention room and on the way back to the dormitory, Harold Andrews kept thinking about his encounters with the five gentlemen.

Assured that he didn’t leak any information and even if his intentions were seen through, he wouldn’t be confronted by Link Grande, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Harold Andrews was hesitant whether to continue to target Link Grande.

He suddenly felt a bit risky.

It seemed like he was narrowing his path.

The next day.

Thursday of the eleventh week.

The news of five genius fifth-rank apprentices got beaten up then had voluntarily pledged allegiance to Link Grande inevitably spread.

The dormitory was not a single house, after all, but an entire row of rooms along each floor corridor, an imposing twenty rooms total.

With the conspicuous state of the five brothers last night, it was hard not to draw attention.

With so many people noticing, the news inevitably spread.

Link once again became the topic of discussion among many New Bloods, and was the target of curious stares.

Though the dining hall was not very crowded at the moment, the very perceptible gazes still bothered the perceptive Link.

Although he could use the “Mind Closure Technique” to block out odd feelings, it might hinder his alertness.

If anyone were to peep, take photos, follow, or launch a surprise attack at this time, Link’s reaction would undoubtedly be slower than usual.

Even Jasmine was looking at Link strangely during breakfast, and this lasted a while.

On their way to the experiment building, after Jasmine glanced back furiously at a few blunt New Bloods gossiping about Link, she finally couldn’t help but ask, “Link, do you really want to become our batch’s leader, and lead us to overthrow the ‘New Blood Mutual Aid Association’?”

“That’s not true, don’t spread rumors.”

Link clarified decisively.

“But I saw on the ‘forum’ that everyone is saying that.”

Jasmine cocked her head, looking rather puzzled, “They said you have good grades, high ability, are responsible, dare to kill, have many qualities of a leader, and the most important thing, you are handsome and like to please girls…”

The public opinion was really outrageous.

The direction it was being guided was even more ridiculous, as if trying to forcibly shape Link into a schemer.

Before, he had kept a low profile to gather his strength and wait for the right timing.

It seemed as if Link was about to issue a public call to arms, rise in revolt, start a fight with upperclassmen, and overthrow the ‘New Blood Mutual Aid Association’!

At this, Link was speechless and annoyed.

It was clear that this wave of public opinion had been deliberately stirred up.

And he didn’t have a good way to respond..
