Chapter 1987 Moment Of Departure (Part One)
Seemingly in a hurry, all the new disciples of the four major schools walked to the Talent St.
As they positioned, the old man in grey stepped forward. He cleared his throat and announced out
loud, "Now, after selecting you all, it is time that we announce in which school you are assigned to, and
it was based on the ranking of your talents.
Rest assured that the distribution was carried out on a fair footing and waspletely ording to the
level of your talent. We made sure that all those of the same level of talent, no matter how high or low,
will be ced to the appropriate school.
Of course, the decision is to our discretion, which means none of you have the right to choose. If any of
you have any violent reactions, you are encouraged to leave.
Now, each of us stand for one of the four schools. Please, listen carefully and do remember.
This elder here represents the White Tiger School, Elder Allen for the Rose Finch School, Elder Barton
for the ck Tortoise School, andstly, I represent the Blue Dragon School.
This time, we are going to call out your names, and once we do it, step forward ande towards the
representative to whom you will be joining the school with. Again, the decision we made is final."
After the announcement, the four elders started allocating the 400 new disciples ording to the
decided distribution.
The whole process hadsted for about an hour and would have been finished sooner if not for those
disciples who had failed to listen carefully. This made some elders grunt in disappointment, but the
whole procedure must go on.
Finally, to everyone''s convenience, the process was finished. Austin looked around and noticed that the
four elders did seem to have scrutinized every single one of the 400 new disciples and distributed them
ording to the level of their talents.
The four elders each represented a school, and each school had gotten 100 new disciples.
However, one person caught his eye, which surprised him. He saw Caroline lined up in front of Elder
Allen, who represented the Rose Finch School.
Seeing her there made his eyebrows turn into a frown. He felt very disappointed.
All this time he had been hoping that they both would get to be assigned to the same school, so that
they could look out and take care of each other.
Austin hesitated for a moment but knew that he had to risk it, or else, he would have regretted not
trying, so he strode toward the old man in grey and requested respectfully, "Pardon me, sir, although I
am aware that the decision is final, and you are discouraging any requests or reactions, but is there a
chance that you can change the decision and let Caroline join the Blue Dragon School?"
Austin knew that the old man in grey clothes, who represented the Blue Dragon School, had the right to
choose his favored disciples and recruit any qualified disciples to the school he represented. However,
as expected, the old man in grey reacted with a frown on his face.
"What bullshit is this I hear from you, son?
There is no way to change the decision, and as I have said before and would say again now, I am
encouraging those who have violent reactions to leave.
Besides, that girles from the evil shadow race. Among all the martial arts and skills that the four

major schools offer, the Rose Finch School has more types of those that are particrly suitable for the
girl as shees from the evil shadow race.
If she is sent to the Blue Dragon School as you asked, you will only ruin her."
Meanwhile, Elder Allen, who represented the Rose Finch School, had a sharp spiritual sense ability,
and as soon as he heard what Austin had proposed to the elder in grey, he immediately approached
them and scolded Austin with wide eyes filled with subdued anger.
It turned out that Elder Allen favored Caroline very much and was very eager to recruit her to the Rose
Finch School.
After all, she had ranked first in the test that had been carried out a moment ago.
Moreover, the selection process was not easy as it seemed, so Elder Allen was extremely d to have
Caroline assigned to his school. Therefore, it was impossible for him to let go of her that easy.
"Son, I apologize that we can''t do anything to change the decision, and I know that you are close with
that girl from the evil shadow race.
Then again, there are consequences to be faced when what you request will be granted. If you look at
the brighter side, however, the four schools are very proximal to each other in location, so you can
He tried to console Austin, so that he would stop dreaming about his request.
Austin thought about it for a moment. Still, he knew deep down that it was impossible for Elder Allen to
let Caroline go and join another school. What was very likely, however, was the fact that he might
receive serious beatings if he continued to insist on his request.
With a bitter smile on his face, Austin replied sullenly, "In that case, I apologize for the inconvenience,
and I won''t insist upon my request anymore."
Elder Allen smiled and seemed satisfied with Austin''s response. He patted his back and said, "Well,
that''s considerate of you, young man. You made the right decision."
Austin sighed. If there was anything else that dissatisfied him, it was the fact that both Violet and the
gnome had been ced to the ck Tortoise School. He felt surprised but tried to let these negative
feelings go for he could not do anything about it.
To relieve him of this emotions, his eyes and mood lit up once he found out that Stacy was also
assigned to the Blue Dragon School. They would be able to study together in the near future.
As for the rest of his friends, Peacock Princess was assigned to the Rose Finch School with Caroline.
Bray was assigned to the White Tiger School.
Rahul and Zoe would be joining Bray as well in the White Tiger School.
Among all the people whom Austin was familiar with and close to, only Stacy was assigned to the same
school as him, which meant she was the only person who could apany him inside the premises.
Austin shrugged, feeling consoled by the fact that, at least, he was with someone he knew in the Blue
Dragon School.
