Eliana asked coldly, “How dare you be so biased? Isn’t it the disciplinary hall’s duty to find out the facts before making any move? It’s obvious that you didn’t even try, or how difficult would it have been to find out that he was beaten up while sparring? Are you going to arrest everyone who injures their opponent in a spar, huh?”

The black-robed man didn’t dare retort and immediately bowed as he said, “It was my carelessness sen—”

“Fuck off!” Eliana didn’t let him finish and waved her hand. He was sent flying just like Karon and fainted.

She then turned to look at Anna and nodded with a smile. “You did great there.” Anna was about to say something when Eliana looked toward Max and continued in a cold voice, “If any men try to do those lecherous things, kill them next time if you can. If not, then come find me; I’ll take care of everything.”

Max could feel that her last sentence was targeting him, which made him feel odd. Did she think that he was also that kind of man or what?

However, how would he know that he was already the biggest pervert in her mind?

A month ago, she was in the Cloud mountain range. While resting, she heard a girl scream and thought someone was in danger.

However, when she went to help, she witnessed a male and female indulging in sexual activities. She was very angry then but was too embarrassed to show herself.

Therefore, she returned and was sure they would die to some beast soon. After all, those who focus on carnal pleasure are weaker than others.

But now, she found that he was safe and living with another girl who was as beautiful as her. Moreover, she had to save ‘this pervert,’ which made her feel bad.

“Yes, thank you, senior.” Anna nodded excitedly. She didn’t expect a distinguished core disciple who has reached the three-star realm to look favorably at her.

“Mhm.” Eliana nodded and glanced faintly toward Max before leaving.

After she had gone away, the disciples present broke out in discussion. Most talked about her beauty and strength and forgot Max and Anna.

…

After this episode, Max sent her inside the room and went to exchange the beast cores in the resource hall.

He urgently needed the mana stones to buy the foundation strengthening liquid.

He had a basic plan on how he would do the things next if nothing unexpected happened.

First, he would consolidate his foundation and then raise his mana to ten thousand units. After that, he would focus on training to shorten the casting time of his strongest spell [Calidus Brachium].

After that, he would start transforming his mana color to orange and try breaking through to the three-star realm before the selection competition.

He knew that quite a few inner and core disciples who had been in the academy for more than a few years had already reached the three-star realm just like Eliana.

Therefore, he needed to become a three-star mage if he wanted to compete against them to rank in the top five or ten.

Max quickly reached the resource hall. There was already a long line formed in front of the counter.

A few disciplinary hall disciples were stationed here too to ensure the smooth progress of everything and prevent the impatient and rebellious disciples from causing a commotion.

Max patiently stood in the line, and after two hours, it was finally his turn.

A woman, who looked to be in her thirties, was sitting at the counter. Max took out thirty beast cores, placed them in front of her, and said, “Elder, I would like to exchange these.”

The woman glanced at him and was surprised to see him for a second. Although she was a middle-aged woman, she was still affected by his devilish features. She quickly recovered and nodded. “Okay.”

After counting and scanning the cores, she had a slightly surprised expression and asked, “Aren’t you a new disciple…?”

“Yes, I am. Why?” Max nodded and curiously asked.

“Oh!” The middle-aged woman exclaimed, “No, usually the beast cores new disciples bring are only from early stage two-star beasts since they can’t handle stronger ones, but most of yours are from middle-staged ones. It seems you are also very strong.”

Max’s eyes lit up hearing this and he asked, “Elder, do the price of beast cores vary based on their strength?”

“Huh, didn’t you know this?” The middle-aged woman was a bit surprised.

Max shook his head and smiled wryly. ‘It seems I also need to spend some more to learn about these small things.’

Seeing him become embarrassed, the middle-aged woman smiled. “It’s okay. There are many things that most new disciples aren’t aware of.”

She then explained, “Yes, the price of beast core varies according to the beasts’ rank, strength, rarity, etc.

For example, the academy gives 100 Mana stones for one early-stage two-star beast core from a non-elemental beast. As for those from the middle-stage two-star beasts, they range between 150-200 Mana stones each.

Moreover, if they are from elemental beasts, their exchange rate ranges from 200-300 Mana stones.

As for these cores, twelve are from early-stage beasts, eighteen are from middle-stage, and six of them are from elemental beasts. Therefore, you can get a total of four thousand and seven hundred Mana stones.”

The people on other counters and the disciplinary hall disciples were surprised to see her explain these things to a random disciple. They knew that this woman was very impatient and hot-headed. So, they glanced over curiously.

Seeing Max, the females were dazed while the males looked at him jealously.

…

“Four thousand and seven hundred?” The disciple standing behind Max exclaimed. This many Mana stones were equal to almost four years of monthly resources for inner disciples.

Max was happily surprised by this. He hadn’t thought that he would be able to receive 1700 stones extra stones from the expected amount.

The middle-aged woman asked, “So, you want to exchange them for Mana stones or other resources?”

“May I know how much foundation strengthening liquid costs?” Max asked.

“One small bottle of low-tier grade two liquid cost three hundred, middle-tiered cost one thousand, while the high-tier one cost five thousand.” The woman said.

Max’s smile froze hearing the price. From his share of stones, he couldn’t even buy middle-tier grade two liquid.

‘It’s okay. I still have around two hundred stones.’ Max thought. He wanted to buy the middle-tier foundation strengthening liquid because Belen had told him that the middle-tiered one was more than five times more effective than the low-tiered one.

This means that it would take five times more time to achieve the desired result if he bought a low-tiered one.

The middle-aged woman saw his expression changing and immediately remembered that when new disciples go on the outing, they would go in groups of five. This means that his share would only be a little less than thousand stones.

“Hand—ahem! Disciple, do you want to buy the middle-tiered one?” She asked.

‘Hmm?’ Max was surprised at how she was going to call him and looked at her. The look in her eyes surprised him even more, and his eyes twinkled.
