Lowell McClain again denied their suggestion. The 6 of them felt humiliated. They didn't want to stay thereafter. Seeing that McClain relaxed his eyebrows.
But he felt a certain pressure. He hopes that Jonathan will return with Zack soon.

Outer Post:
Mansion,
After returning to my room, I changed to comfort clothes. I couldn't help but remove the scenes of today's duel in my mind. magic
Today went disappointing for the Viper Academy. No one was able to get the 1st win in the Elite Category for our academy.
And the remaining elite warriors whose match up didn't come so far. I'm not optimistic about them either. After removing the unnecessary thoughts in my mind..
I left the room and started walking towards the lobby. I need to breathe some fresh air to cool down my head. After arriving at the lobby, I met with Ernest and Laverne.
There are other groups who are ready to go out for a walk.
Then 3 of us left the mansion and started walking towards the Shopping street.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"The Elite duels are disappointing. I wonder if the Super Elite duels will remain the same," Laverne said with concern.
Her words are true.
"Sigh"
Ernest let out a sigh before saying,"Before coming here, I thought our Elite Warriors are good. They have done well in the selection competition."
"But looking at duels so far. I think our elite warriors' strength is not enough,"he added.
We are walking along the street. But not many people came to disturb us. They are afraid of offending us.
"What do you think?" Ernest asked me all of a sudden.
"Me?" I muttered before recalling the past events.
"The Flame Faction Head was not strict enough," I answered.
The late Flame Faction Head Franklin was not serious about teaching the students. He was more concerned with maintaining the reputation of their Flame Faction.
If he had truly paid attention, maybe we could have some strongest elite warriors.
Soon, we got closer to the shopping street. One of the shops caught my attention. It was the shop where adventurers sell their monster core, meats, skins and other items.
Seeing that I dragged two of them to the shop. I'm lacking monster cores. If I get Class-6 more cores, I can practice the blood method.
But I doubt whether they have Class-6 Monster Core or not.
"Are you going to buy something?" Laverne asked.
Hearing that I nodded my head. Then we started looking around the shop. A male shopkeeper saw us looking at the items. So he didn't disturb us.
A hint of disappointment flashes in my eyes. The items placed here for display are not attractive. Most of these items are parts of Class-3 monsters.
Which was enough to tell the level of this shop. But to confirm it, I turned towards the Shopkeeper and asked,"What is the highest level of monster core you got?"
Hearing that the Shopkeeper got stunned. The monster cores are usually bought for special purposes. Such as healing or making pills.
But the shopkeeper was embarrassed for some other reason. He recognised the identity of the people in front of him. The residents of these streets are aware that people from one of the 6 academies are staying in the White Mansion.
So the shopkeeper was still in shock. After feeling the gaze, he replied,"Guest, we got Class-4 Monster cores as highest range."
Hearing that I sighed inwardly. There is a vast difference between the resources found in the academy and the city.
"Why do you need monster cores?" Ernest asked. It's not new for him to see Zack like this. Zack has collected many monster cores during their practice time in the monster zones.
He always thought Zack sells them for higher prices. But now he feels strange.
Ernest's question has attracted Laverne as well.
Seeing that everyone turned towards me. I revealed a smile on my face before saying,"Obviously, the monster cores are needed for making pills. I'm collecting this for a reason. So that our elite warriors don't have to look for monster cores in times of emergency."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing that a look of understanding dawned on the shopkeeper. He knows that Viper Academy is not doing well in the elite category. It's not surprising to know that they are in need of pills.
"Maybe they want to increase their elite warriors' strength," The shopkeeper said in his heart..
Then he quickly went to check the stock. On the other hand, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I guess I'm the only one who can use monster cores to raise the cultivation.
Others can do it. But they need a monster core with the same elemental power. They also need corresponding techniques to use monster core energy.
Shortly after,
The shopkeeper arrived carrying a silver plate. There is a low grade storage ring in it.
"Guests, we have only 20 Class-4 Monster cores," The Shopkeeper said.
I frowned before asking,"Can I check the quality of monster cores?"
The Shopkeeper nodded his head. Then I picked the storage ring before checking the items by using the mental power.
There are 20 monster cores inside. But the quality of the monster cores are not that great. I can access better than the shopkeeper.
Some of them are old. Most of the monster core energies have dissipated. Only a few of them are good with rich monster core energies.
I selected 10 monster cores like that before taking them out.
The Shopkeeper was surprised. Because all 10 of the monster cores are new ones.
Then I paid the amount before taking them in my storage ring. Ernest and Laverne didn't buy it. There was nothing in this place.
After walking out, we went to other street shops to explore.
We came across people from other academies as well. After nodding at each other, we went our separate ways. There was no conflict whatsoever.
An hour later,
We returned to the mansion. Here, everyone is ready for dinner. Seeing that we joined them as well.
