Chapter 150 – The Prodigy Society is Always Pretty Lucky
The presence of both the Fate Stone and Order Seal had suppressed his soul power to the bare minimum…either that or he initially had very little talent in terms of soul power. In all honesty though, if it had not been for the Fate Stone, he would have died a long time ago.
Even so, the mere thought of it was like adding salt to his wounds.
Time pa.s.sed quickly whenever he was with Simba. It didn’t seem like much time had pa.s.sed when distortions manifested within the spatial fragment. Simba laughed and said, “This was just a brief, small spatial fragment, but it’s of really high grade. To think that you would find a fragment that was nearly completed.”
Simba took out the Fate Roulette and said, “This Fate Roulette is yours. As long as you fill it up with a bit of soul energy, you can use it to carry out a single judgement. I won’t tell you anything more so you would have to experience everything for yourself. My dear friend, I have faith in you! You’ll definitely become a true king!”1
His voice was tinged with emotions, but the words were said with confidence.
In the next instance, w.a.n.g Zhong suddenly couldn’t move. All he could do was to follow the rotation of the spinning Fate Roulette. Light from the spatial fragment was drawn into the roulette in small bits and pieces, giving the illusion that a swarm of fireflies was headed towards the roulette. It was filled to approximately seventy percent by soul power, before increasing by another twenty percent when the light was absorbed.”
His sight became more and more blurred, and one of the last things he could make out was Simba’s expression of concern. Even after knowing each other for so long, Simba had yet to mention a single method of recovery. However, w.a.n.g Zhong knew that deep down in his heart, any method that Simba could propose would be too difficult to implement as he was too weak.
All along, he had blamed his low soul power on the Fate Stone. It was now time for him to meet this issue head on!

Bang, boom, boom…
Outside of the fragment, the entire sea of flowers turned to dust as a result of the intense explosion that occurred when the spatial fragment collapsed. The unfortunate mutated spider king bore the brunt of it. Since it was located at the core of the explosion, it had instantly shattered into pieces. As for the mother madora flower tree, the explosion caused it to wither within a few moments. After the dust had settled, it seemed that nothing was left. Even the spatial fragment had ceased to exist..
Not far away, Grace and the others who had just arrived bore grave expressions on their faces. She had been traveling at a rapid pace all along and utilized her strongest soul power output. Even so, she didn’t have high hopes. A Level 5 mutated creature was something even she had no a.s.surance of winning against. Furthermore, this was a mutated red-legged spider which typically travelled in packs. These sort of creatures were hard to deal with by themselves. With a Level 5 mutated creature added to the mix, any sliver of hope that Grace held had immediately been extinguished.
Yet, when she arrived, all she found was a pile of spiders. Although they were just Level 2 mutated creatures and didn’t have much combat prowess, this was just a few students… it was almost impossible for them to defeat them in such a manner.
Grai and Hymin were currently taking care of Emily and Barran. Emily’s injuries were still manageable, but Barran had suffered severe injuries. It was fortunate that Hymin was a special ability user that specialized in medical treatment. If not, Barran would not have survived with such extensive injuries.
After receiving Hymin’s guidance, Grace rushed toward the direction w.a.n.g Zhong had lured the spider king in. On the way there, she grew more and more meticulous in her search. w.a.n.g Zhong’s choice had placed her in a dilemma. Grace could see he would make a great leader, though there were still a number of major flaws he would have to rectify before he could become one. She didn’t want him to lose his life in a place like this, even though that hope wasn’t very big.
The scene before her eyes when she arrived would stun anyone. A dimensional fissure!
It was no wonder a Level 5 creature had appeared in such a short period of time. Thankfully, the spider king was busy scuttling about in anger so it did not realized that Grace had arrived. However, its movements indicated that something was off. Just as she was about to make her move, a spatial rupture appeared.
Everything in the vicinity was razed to flat ground. Fortunately, she was a distance away, else she would’ve gotten injured.
Temporary spatial ruptures were very unstable. They could burst like a bubble at any time. This wasn’t the first time she saw such a situation. It was, however, the first time she was so close to one.
Just as she was about to lose all hope, she saw a figure within the ruins.
Grace rushed up to the unconscious w.a.n.g Zhong in a second. She had experienced a hundred battles and various sorts of extraordinary situations but had never met with such a miracle before.
