From MC's Perspective:
A few minutes later,
I came to the Sub-Taboo Hall. After doing the verification, I walked into the Hall. The next moment, I see my Senior Sister working behind her desk.
"Senior, when did you come back?" I asked with a smile on my face. I was hoping to meet her to clear my doubts about the official challenge. Now that I have seen her. A hint of relief flashes in my eyes.
Carolina Slate opened her big beautiful eyes and looked at Vincent. "Ahem, I came back last night," Carolina added further, "But look at you, the bloodline Hall made an official challenge request. What do you think of this?"
Hearing that a wry smile appeared on my face.
"As you had said, someone had found a good way to tackle me, "I replied in a calm tone.
Carolina's eyes flickered with a gloomy glint. She knows more about the official challenge post than Vincent.
For a moment, she stopped doing her work. She said, "Senior Gilbert spoke to me this morning."
A quick glint flashes in my eyes. I asked, "Is he back?"
Carolina shook her head and answered, "He is still on his mission. But he knows about the official challenge post. He asked me to warn you."
After saying that she paused her gaze on Vincent. Then she continued to add further in a solemn tone, "If you accept their duel request, then you can't lose."
Hearing that, my expression turned a bit solemn. I knew behind the challenge post there is some catch. Then I perked up my ears to listen further.
Seeing that Vincent is listening attentively. Carolina nodded her head and said, "If you lose the duel, then the Sub-Taboo will lose certain resources to the bloodline Hall."
"And it is the same case with the Bloodline Hall, if they lose then we will gain certain resources from them."
"So the final decision rests on you. If you are confident, then we can ask our management to accept the duel post," Carolina added.
A look of understanding dawned upon me. Again, everything comes down to resources. But I have to say the people from the Bloodline Hall are very calculative.
They got too much confidence in their bloodline power. So much so that they have already decided on the winner. My eyes flickered with a cold glint.
Carolina saw a change in Vincent's mood. She didn't interrupt. She also knows about the horror of the bloodline power. That's why she was confused.
She doesn't know whether Vincent can get past this one.
After a few minutes of silence, I opened my mouth, "Sister Carolina, I have decided. I'm ready to accept the challenge."
Carolina observed Vincent's reaction before asking, "Are you sure? You know they have an additional bloodline boost. Which can increase their attributes further."
I nodded my head in response.
Seeing the firm look in Vincent's eyes. Carolina didn't ask further. She has trust in Vincent. She believes Vincent must have thought it through.

A few minutes later, the acceptance form was officially sent to our superiors. It will be a matter of time before everyone learns about this explosion.
"Soon, both Halls will decide on a suitable date for the match. You can take your time to prepare until then," Carolina said casually.
But soon she realized Vincent had an important day tomorrow. The special trial is going to happen in the magic forest.
She asked, "I almost forgot about your trial tomorrow. How was your preparation going?"
Her words made me ease my eyebrows. She is right. I should think about the Trails tomorrow. Then a bright smile appeared on my face.
"I did read some books about the magic forest. Besides the trial was to collect resources from the magic forest. So I don't think the Trail will be life-threatening," I said to her.
Carolina held up her chin in contemplation. She had already guessed the trail would be like this. No one uses the magic forest other than to collect resources.
Then she said to Vincent, "Well the resource collection is not easy. It's also a test for your knowledge. But looking at the trial, I think you can easily get first place again."
I simply smiled in response. Then I remembered something. "Sister, when can I meet other Seniors?" Normally, I should have met with other Seniors by this time. Don't know what happened?
Carolina let out a chuckle before saying," Look at you, you really can't wait to see other Sub-Taboo Wizards."
Then she added, "Seniors are back. But they are occupied with something else. You will see them soon in our Hall."
Then we talked about a few other things before I left the Hall. Walking out of the Hall, I thought that now the doubt has been made clear. I can spend the rest of the time reading.
I have yet to complete the basic wizard books. Then I have to read the intermediate wizard book also. I can't delay it anymore. After gaining some clarity, I walked toward the dorm.
Time passed,
Vincent's acceptance of the challenge post was quickly approved by the higher-ups. Soon the news about this broke out. Which immediately bombed the academy's online site.
Wizards from other Halls were surprised by Vincent's move. Even for them, it's not easy to mess with crazy bloodline wizards. So Vincent's move is considered unwise.
The whole Bloodline Hall burst out with laughter. It doesn't matter whether the Outer House Wizards or the Inner House Wizards. Everyone was on the same page on this matter.
They don't think the new wizard can stand against the bloodline wizard. Even if the wizard is a Sub-Taboo user, he will be helpless when facing bloodline boost power.
Even some of the core members sneered after hearing this hasty move.
Taboo Hall:
Meanwhile, Lara White who is going through details about the magic forest was stumped after hearing the news.
"Is he stupid or what?" A look of doubt flashes in her eyes. She also came to know about Bloodline Hall's challenge post recently.
But she thought Vincent's recent achievement made other Halls vary from him. So she wasn't surprised by the challenge post at all. Her teacher Kate Cohens already spoke to her about this.
She suddenly thought about herself. She doesn't know whether her Snowstorm magic can withstand the bloodline boost. Unknowingly, she started to take interest in this challenge duel.
Even before the bloodline Hall, she had thought about fighting Vincent. But she didn't get a good opportunity or reason to challenge Vincent. On top of this, the Special Trial also distracted her attention.
Her eyes gleamed with a twinkle. "Anyway, I should focus on defeating him in the Special Trial itself," She said in her heart.
Similarly,
The other Special Class Students were dumbfounded by the news. Everyone else is preparing hard for the special trial tomorrow. But this guy is planning something else.
Some even thought Vincent didn't even put the Special Trial in his eyes. Especially the level-4 wizards, who were already dissatisfied with Vincent's limelight.
This news made them even more dissatisfied. Everyone had a hint of jealousy in their heart. They can't wait to see the defeated face of Vincent in the end.
Time passed in a blink of an eye,
The following day,
I woke up pretty early. I don't want to miss out on meditation. Considering, there is going to be a Special Trial today.
I started to run the gravity ark method. Ignoring the time, I got fully immersed in meditation. When the gray color mana particles entered my body, I guided them according to the mental method.
After the circulation, the purified mana settled down in my mana core. I repeated the process.
3 hours later,
I opened my eyes and decided to check the status.

"Now I'm ready to face the trial," I mumbled under my breath.
