Chapter 613: Chapter 283: Relic Rule, Doomsday Continent
When Howard Lambert exclaimed “First Grade, Seventh Layer Heaven, Self-created Secret Manual” in a lost voice, the entire venue fell silent. Thousands of ‘Top-notch Geniuses’ all turned to look at Jack Clark in astonishment.
Inclusive of Baldas of Berlin and Gabriella from the Simon Cathedral Academy, who also showed surprise in their gazes as they looked over. After all, this achievement was indeed shocking.
However, Jack was slightly suspicious at that moment; he felt that the guy deliberately shouted so loud, after all, there was a precedent.
Back when he was at the Fourth Layer Heaven, having slain the Blood Armored Beast King with the combat power of a late-stage Level 5, his feat had spread throughout the South Sky Martial Height Base not long after his return.
Because the news spread so quickly, Jack had suspected that someone was targeting him.
“It really is you, Jack Clark.” Crystal Lewis said with a bitter smile.
She had subconsciously thought of Jack when she heard the words ‘Brother Callum’ from Damon Lopes earlier, but she dared not to confirm or believe it.
After all, creating a secret manual in two months and breaking through from the early Sixth Heaven to the Seventh was too exaggerated and had already refreshed the cultivation history records for the human race at this stage.
Betty Leinster gave a wry smile: “Indeed, still such a monster.”
Facing the astonished gazes of everyone, Jack replied with a smile, “You all don’t have to look at me like that. For us, cultivation is a long road, and I’m just walking a bit faster than you all at the moment.”
“Who knows, maybe I’ll get stuck at the Ninth Heavens for years or a decade down the line, and then you’ll catch up and surpass me.”
He made a fair point.
Hearing Jack’s words, the geniuses from Berlin Simon in the distance nodded slightly. The path of cultivation is about persistence, and only by taking one step at a time can one reach the peak.
For them, as long as they cultivate diligently, breaking through to higher realms is definitely achievable. Reaching the Eight Layer Heaven is within sight, and even the Ninth Heavens are not impossible.
Therefore, there’s no need to vie for short-term gains. Winning or losing doesn’t carry much significance.
At the same time, these individuals’ impressions of Jack suddenly became quite favorable. Although he was a genius with incredible talent, he seemed very humble and mild-mannered, without a trace of arrogance or conceit.
Compared to that, the individuals from the Military Secret Martial Arts Academy looked at Eddy Keller, then at Jack, and shook their heads in unison, sighing at the vast difference.
As opposed to those ‘outsiders’, Justin Welan, Howard Lambert, and the Lewis sisters, who had watched Jack’s rise all along, were internally scoffing.
That spiel about him just temporarily walking a bit faster than everyone else, was utterly unbelievable.
In just half a year’s time, with his ‘ordinary’ talent, he had surpassed them by two major realms, and they were both among the top geniuses from First-class Universities.
As for people like Sawyer Levin, who initially had similar talents to Jack, they couldn’t even see his taillights now.
Standing in front of Jack, Justin Welan shared in the glory and said with a proud smile, “Worthy of Jack, always astounding everyone and shocking those foreigners.”
“Actually, I didn’t intend to shock anyone,” Jack said, looking somewhat bemusedly at Damon Lopes. This guy must have been boasting about him for those reactions to be so intense.
But since his identity had been revealed today, he might as well let it be. In the human inner circle, it was impossible to hide anything anyway.
As soon as he brought out his Combat Shadow and weapon, even if he changed his face, people would recognize him at first glance.
If it weren’t for the Alien Beast Battlefield being cut off from the outside world, Justin and the gang would have recognized him a long time ago, given that his weapon was his calling card.
Originally, Cicely Rodgers allowed him to continue using the name Darren Callum, but it was for use in the mythical world in order to confuse the Evil God Sect and The Purgatory Family.
With the reach of The Purgatory Family and the Evil God Sect cut off and them being unfamiliar with the human inner circle, at the very least, it would buy him six months’ time.
And for a genius like him, six months was enough time for a drastic transformation. By the time the different races caught on, he might already be at the Ninth Heavens.
Of course, that was the view of the higher-ups like Tyler Lance. In Jack’s opinion, in six months, he might already have ascended to king-level.
After all, he would be nearly breaking through to the Eight Layer after the relic ended, and once he entered the mythical world, his strength might increase even faster.
Damon Lopes said with a laugh, “Brother Callum, I can’t be blamed for this. That guy forced his swagger onto me, and I could only use you to suppress him.”
“Come, let me introduce you to some of the geniuses present.”
With that, Damon Lopes pushed Justin Welan aside, enthusiastically put his arm around Jack’s shoulder, and pointed to a formidable young man in white robes floating in the distance.
“That guy is Eddy Keller, whom I was talking about. Numero uno when it comes to forced swagger, a bandit who always fancies himself as a refined scholar.”
“That one over there is Gabriella from the Simon Cathedral Academy. Pretty, huh? Want to go over and add her as a friend?”
“Oh, and that one over there is…”
Behind Jack, Justin Welan was a bit bewildered. What was going on? How come this Innate Awakened One seemed to be on better terms with Jack than he was?
Under the introductions of Damon Lopes, Jack had gained a bit of an impression of the rather famous geniuses present, including some from foreign nations.
Then came the wait.
Standing at the edge of the continental rift, the top-tier geniuses from the three great empires of the federation and over a dozen countries were all stunned as they stared at the Void Rift before them.
They saw a continental block with a width of over a thousand kilometers hurtling towards them, almost obscuring the Void due to its proximity, enveloping everything like a blanket.
Even Jack couldn’t help but have his breath catch at the sight.
Compared to this continental block of ancient times with a diameter of several thousand kilometers, those Giant Beasts hundreds and thousands of meters in size didn’t seem worth mentioning.
If it weren’t for the Void acting as a barrier, the sheer size and invisible gravity field emanating from this massive expanse of ancient relics would have caused a doomsday disaster on Blue Star.
