Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: The New Guard of the Academy, Mentioned the Bet Again

Although the will of the flame was strong, it would not make a person permanently disabled just by glaring at him.

Sam’s body had already recovered after walking into the main building. His steps were not stiff. He instantly puffed out his chest as if the person who walked like an ape wasn’t him.

However, many people saw him. The people around him, regardless of whether they were men or women, were all discussing him.

Sam lowered his blushing face and quickly walked forward.

The teaching environment of the Ninth Academy was very relaxed. Many students were talking in the fortress, and most of these people did not have classes.

Usually, everyone followed their teachers, just like William and Shirley. They would usually follow Mr. George and listened to his instructions as they trained and learned.

But today was different. There was a big class today, in a large room on the first floor of the castle.

The stairs were very high. It could accommodate hundreds of students at maximum capacity.

It was not accurate to say that it was a big class because the students who came here were all students who had recently awakened their Endowed Supernatural Ability. There would be a teacher who would point out the path for them in the future. They would be recommended to continue their studies if they were talented, and they would obtain excellent results in the advanced examination of course.

The teachers would also recommend jobs in the First Wall Area if their Endowed Supernatural Ability were weak.

The jobs that the teachers would least recommend were adventurers.

But that was also the job that the students with weak Endowed Supernatural Ability were most willing to do after leaving the academy.

Adventurers belonged to the category where danger and wealth coexisted. But as teachers, they naturally did not want to see their students do such dangerous things.

But for students, they might as well go to the wilderness and take a gamble rather than facing boring and low-paid jobs in the First Wall Area. Maybe there would be an opportunity to pick up a treasure or eat some magical fruit and improve their Endowed Supernatural Ability. Then returning to the fortress to make the group of people who looked down on them regret not trying to fawn them.

Of course, that kind of thing only existed in stories.

Sam saw that the steps were half-filled when he was in the classroom. He saw William in the crowd and glared at him.

Shirley sat next to William and leaned closer to him. She whispered, “Did you know that a new guard has come to our academy?”

William looked puzzled.

Shirley raised her chin at Sam.

Her voice was not loud, but it was quiet here. Everyone heard her clearly and looked in the direction where Shirley was looking.

Sam instantly became the center of attention, and his face blushed.

“You!”

Shirley said again as soon as he spoke.

“I don’t know why a young man who has just awakened his Summoning Ability wants to be a guard.”

William laughed. He looked at Shirley as if he was saying that she was getting mean.

Shirley raised her eyebrows with a smile in her eyes.

Sam had been looking for trouble with William on the way back to the fortress. It was difficult for Shirley to not acknowledge that both of them could not get along. Therefore, she had to treat the enemy of William as her enemy since she had chosen to ally with William.

She deliberately provoked Sam and said a few sarcastic words. It looked like she was trying to embarrass Sam, but in fact, she was trying to curry favor with William.

After all, she knew that William had awakened the King’s Blood, so his potential would be good in the future.

William would still grow to an absolute height with the King’s blood, even without the accumulation of money and resources. Moreover, isn’t the wilderness filled with many gold coins to harvest? William had just awakened his Endowed Supernatural Ability, and he could already cut off the skin of so many Five-Legged Flame Lizards. Would he still be short of money after familiarizing himself with the King’s Blood in the future?

“You don’t have the right to make fun of me! The person beside you is the person that is good-for-nothing!”

Sam tried to change the focus to William after being unable to withstand the ridicule of the crowd.

“He has awakened the weakest F-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability, and it’s even a useless Bloodline Category.”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the students began to discuss, and they looked at William with pity looks in their eyes.

“Really? An F-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability? I’m afraid he’ll be chased out of the Central District.”

“How pitiful. Even the First Wall Area might not want him with such an ability.”

“Not necessarily. What if it’s a Bloodline Category that increases strength? Many coolies would accept him.”

“This must be the last time he comes to the academy.”

Sam’s smile was wide that he could not hide it when he heard what the students’ said.

Laugh at him. Laugh at that good-for-nothing man to your heart’s content!

Shirley’s expression changed. William suddenly grabbed her wrist just as she was about to speak.

“Sam!”

William called out. At the same time, he let go of Shirley’s soft wrist and stood up.

The crowd immediately quieted down upon hearing his voice. Everyone quietly looked at William, who was at the top of the stairs, and Sam, who was at the bottom. Such confrontation between men was the most attractive. After all, learning was boring.

“Do you still remember our bet?”

William smirked as he looked at Sam and said softly.

Sam was delighted. He was worried that William would give up on the bet and turn around to flee from the Central District. After all, he as a Supernal Rank couldn’t just grab onto a piece of trash and not let go.

But since this piece of trash brought it up himself, there was no problem.

“Of course, I remember.”

Sam responded, but he was still worried. He added, “You’re not going to ask me to let you off, are you?”

“No, I’m reminding you. Don’t forget to run around naked after you lose.”

William sat down right after he said that.

Everyone started discussing, not knowing what the bet was.

Sam didn’t expect William to still dare to talk to him like that, and he even pretended to be confident. That made Sam very unhappy.

No one noticed William’s smile when he sat down.

Only Shirley, who had been watching William from the side, suddenly woke up when she saw William’s confident smile.

Yes, he was a lion who had awakened the King’s Blood. Why would he care about the noise of the bedbugs? He didn’t take Sam seriously at all. He just teased him like a joke. What a charming guy.

Shirley’s eyes gradually blurred, but she quickly woke up. Because her Endowed Supernatural Ability [ Heaven’s Messenger ] had sent back news that Mr. George had already arrived at the door.

She had just moved her gaze away when the classroom door was pulled open. More than ten teachers walked in one by one. Mr. George’s seat was not near to the front.

These were all the teachers of the students.

Sam also found a seat. A student who knew him asked curiously, just as he sat down, “Hey, what did you bet with that trash who awakened an F-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability?”

Sam did not want to pay attention to him at first. But it wouldn’t be fun if no one knew about the bet after he thought twice about it! What if William reneged on his promise? He had to spread this bet so that everyone would laugh at William!

At the thought of this, Sam’s eyes lit up. He lowered his voice and said quickly, “The lower-ranked person in the advanced examination will run around naked. Help me spread the word!”
