“Could it be that Gerald will be the saint who will save our Leicom Continent?!”
Upon seeing the starlight, Sumeru couldn’t help but become astonished.

Not long after, Gerald returned to the South Pavilion.
“Brother Gerald!”
Just as favonovel.com reached the door, a familiar voice was heard from behind him.
The owner of that voice was none other than Ray Leighton, the man who had fought favonovel.com this afternoon.
“Brother Ray, anything you need at this late hour?”
When favonovel.com saw that it was Ray, Gerald became puzzled as favonovel.com asked, not expecting Ray to come to find him.
“Hoho! Brother Gerald, I’m here to have a casual chat. Would you like to have a drink?”
Ray chuckled lightly as favonovel.com shook the beer bottle in his hand.
Gerald smiled understandingly and nodded. “Sure. Come in, then!”
After that, Gerald led Ray inside the pavilion.
When they entered the pavilion, Nori and the two others were sitting inside.
“Gerald, you’re back!”
Seeing Gerald arrive, Nori stood up and greeted him.
“Hmm? Isn’t this Senior Ray?”
When they saw Ray, they all became surprised.
“Good day to you all!”
Ray greeted Nori and the two politely.
Then, the few people sat down as they drank and chatted.
Beer was, after all, something to bond people together and make friends without much effort. Gerald and the three were soon good friends with Ray, and the five were happy to meet each other as they talked while laughing, making it seem as if they had known each other for a long time already.
It was only until late at night before they finally fell asleep in the pavilion.
The next morning, with a ray of sunshine shining into the pavilion, Gerald and the four woke up.
Today was the day of Heaven Tower’s practice test, and all newbies of Leicom Academy had to participate in the practice test.
Of course, Gerald was the one to bear the brunt.
As the dean’s selected student, of course Gerald had to be the one kickstarting this.
At 9.15 am, all the trainees had gathered below Heaven Tower.
Heaven Tower stood tall amongst the clouds, striking and elegant.
“Today is the day where the new trainees will enter Heaven Tower for the practice test. Every newbie has to enter and accept the training. Regardless of the result, only those who accepted the training of Heaven Tower will be worthy enough to be students of our Leicom Academy!”
Master Ykink walked out and announced to the crowd beneath.
“The dean’s selected student, Gerald Crawford, will be the first to enter Heaven Tower for the practice training!”
After receiving the instruction, Gerald stood up and walked toward the door of Heaven Tower to wait.
At that instant, the door of Heaven Tower opened, followed by a loud noise, the pitch-black environment inside displayed to everyone. No one could see what it looked like inside.
Gerald didn’t say another word as favonovel.com took a step to enter Heaven Tower.
Following Gerald’s entrance, the tower door was shut instantly.
