Chapter 529 - Competition between Schools (1/2)
”It's so boring,” Kanae yawned when the principal had finished making his speech. She could not believe that she managed to hold on standing here without falling asleep.
Kevin nodded his head. ”Do you want to see the classroom?”
”I want to, but not now.”
Right now, the students around them were gathering around. They came from different school for the past two years because this school closed down. Right now, they were trying to prove that they were better than the others from other schools.
”You're not allowed to pass. Only students that come from Nolen School A can pass,” one of the students smiled mischievously.
The student in front of him frowned. ”This is the only way to the building. You can't stop us like this?”
”Try us!”
”Yeah, the students who come from Nolen School A are the best!”
While the students were arguing with one another, Kanae and Kevin barely paid any attention to the students. They didn't have any interest in competing with them. After all, they knew that the only reason they picked Nolen School C in the past was because of their situation and not capabilities.
If they wanted to, getting into Nolen School A would be a piece of cake.
Not that they wanted to brag, but it was rather true that they have more capabilities compared with other people. However, school was merely the start and the place to build their foundation. The real challenge for their life would only start when they started to enter the world of work.
”Do you want to participate?” Kevin asked while pointing his thumb to the group of students in front of them.
Kanae shook her head. ”Is there any need to show off our ability?”
”I thought you liked the limelight.”
”I don't like to be under the spotlight,” Kanae smiled. If she had to choose, she would never pick to stand under the light. The attention was simply too much for her.
Kevin nodded his head. He didn't have any interest in debating with those childish students. His eyes moved to the side as he noticed that several students were standing calmer. For those with real abilities, the dispute between ordinary students was nothing but child plays.
'They are the awakened ones or at least, those who nearly awaken their potential.'
Inside this school, the real powerful one would be those who had awakened their full potential. Although the number of awakened people should be sparse, all of them were gathered here because of the letters and other means that the school utilized.
As Kevin was analyzing the students, Kanae's eyes caught the sight of a familiar young man.
”Kevin, do you recognize that boy?” Kanae pointed to a young man in the middle of the crowd.
Kevin scrutinized the boy with narrowed gaze. The boy's appearance was rather ordinary, without anything special. ”I don't.”
”I feel like I have seen him before,” Kanae scratched her head. ”But I can't remember when I see him.”
”Are you sure?”
Kanae nodded her head. From the way the boy stood, he should be coming from Nolen School A. She tilted her head confusedly. When did she had the chance to meet with those from Nolen School A?
Tommy's competition!
”I remember now. He's the best runner from Nolen School A that used to compete with Tommy,” Kanae mused.
Kevin nodded his head with disinterest. ”Oh.”
