"Put in your space pouch, for crying out loud!


    lugging around such a massive weapon, it just makes you look like a barbarian!"


    Dante was never one to take such an insult lying down, so he didn''t even hesitate as he and swiftly replied to Rebbeca,


    "You''re the one who says that carrying around a massive sword makes me look like a barbarian, but aren''t you the one who has a spear almost twice their size? You look like a clown when you try to wave that shit around!"


    listening to Dante''s words, Reba''s eyes twitched in irritation


    "what would you know?


    The spear is a refined weapon, the very embodiment of grace and elegance."


    But unfortunately for Reba, Dante didn''t even listen to a word Reba just said


    Instead, he just looked at Reba with a pitying gaze as he said,


    "This is the problem with you Reba. I don''t think you''d recognise the meaning of the words grace and elegance, even they hit you across the face!"


    After saying this, Dante shook his head and slowly walked away


    hearing Dante''s words, Reba almost snapped, but before she reacted, she took a deep breath


    ''This Kid is really testing my patience today!


    He''s lucky it''s still early in the morning, so I''ll let him off for now.''


    after calming down, Reba soon followed after Dante, but don''t think it was over just yet.


    Who knew what Reba was nning to get back at Dante for this humiliation...


    ...


    luckily for Dante, Reba didn''t try anything during their journey to the academy, allowing for a rtively peaceful experience.


    Well, as peaceful as you could call being churned and spat out by a teleportation circle at least.


    But if we ignore the teleportation process, then the journey could still be considered pretty smooth.


    Dante and Reba soon walked out of the teleportation hall but even as they walked out the hall, Dante''s feet were still a bit shaky.


    Reba also seemed to notice this about Dante but instead of trying tofort him, she only sneered as she said,


    "Are those shaky legs I see? Don''t tell me that our mighty Dragon Son is actually suffering from some teleportation sickness?"


    Dante refused to allow Reba to make fun of him and snorted in disdain as he quickly stood up and walked forward as if nothing was wrong in the first ce.


    Reba only rolled her eyes at the weak attempt for Dante to y off his difort.


    Not wanting to embarrass Dante any further, Reba soon changed the topic


    "So Dante, you know that the Wee ceremony is happening today, but what do you even know about it"


    Dante cleared his throat as he calmly replied


    "Well, that''s easy. The weing ceremony consists of only one challenge and that is the mountain of will.


    The test is designed to show off the one thing required by each and every department. The power of will."


    Now that Dante started speaking, he seemed to remember something!


    "Shit! Reba!" Cried Dante


    "Now that I think about it, the weing ceremony is not apulsory event for new students.


    They are just there as a way for new students to show off their skills to the academy!"


    As Dante spoke, he suddenly grabbed Reba and shook her in frustration


    "That means you woke me up and rushed me all the way here for absolutely nothing!"


    "Flick!"


    Before Dante could continue talking nonsense, Reba flicked his forehead, causing him to wince in pain


    "Idiot" said Reba coldly


    "That may be the case for other new students, but aren''t you forgetting something Dante?


    you''re just not the same as them!


    As the new Dragon Son, your appointment already caused an uproar throughout the whole academy! If you didn''t show up to the weing ceremony, who knows what oundish rumours would start to surface?


    you need to put up a show in the Weing Ceremony to shut up all those stupid critics."


    "Realistically, I don''t really care what other people think-"


    as Dante was speaking, he saw Reba''s icy gaze and decided to just avoid an argument with her entirely and quickly changed his sentence..


    "But I guess it''ll be bad if some idiots use this as an excuse to start doubting me, so I may as well stop the problems before they even start."


    Seeing that Dante was taking this seriously, Reba couldn''t help but breath a sigh of relief.


    With Dante''s casual attitude, who knows if he''ll be even bothered to try during this contest and embarrass not just himself, but their entire n!


    But now that she knew that Dante was taking this at least somewhat seriously, with Dante''s current ridiculous talent, him taking it somewhat serious would be enough to impress almost anyone.


    As Dante and Reba were walking, she seemed to notice something.


    "Damn! I almost forgot," shouted Reba.


    "The test is on a mountain near the edge of the academy.


    It''ll take some time to walk there so Let''s just fly. It''ll be quicker."


    So just like that, Reba quickly took off into the air but as she turned back, she Dante still stood on the ground looking at her with an awkward face.


    "Reba, I think you''re forgetting I''m still in the Martial Novice realm. I still can''t fly!"


    That''s right!


    Despite Dante''s ridiculous strength, he was still in the Martial Novice Realm, meaning that flight was still not an option to him!


    It''s quite easy to forget what realm he was in when his strength was almost simr to yours.


    Seeing Dante''s awkward look, Reba smirked as she looked down at him.


    "How about I carry you there? It would definitely be a faster way to get there than walking plus, you''d also get to see the scenery on the way there. It''s a win-win! "


    Hearing Reba''s suggestion, Dante''s body shivered in disgust.


    he could already imagine the scene of him being princess carried towards the test mountain and being dropped off in front of the whole academy!


    he''d rather fight a Martial Adept level cultivator than suffer such a humiliation!


    In response to Reba''s suggestion, Dante looked up to Rebbeca as he said


    "Carry me? You must be dreaming! I''d rather run than live through that embarrassment."


    Reba didn''t try to force it and onlyughed in response.


    "hahaha! Well if that''s your choice, you better do your best to try to keep up!"


    Reba suddenly shone in a soft red glow as her body shot forward.


    Dante wasn''t about to be left behind and stamped hard into ground, propelling his body forward at dizzying speeds
