Chapter 294: Veil of Darkness (1/2)

The Superior immediately turned around in a fit of madness and struck out at the Principal.

”DIE!” he shouted. With a cultivation base in the upper Nascent Soul realm, he could easily kill Singeer if he wanted to.

However, just before his hands reached the principal, Ning appeared between the two and took the blow to the face.

”Oh, I could almost feel that. You're really quite strong,” Ning said without taking single damage.

”Huh? How—”

”Let's not fight amongst these poor folks even more, okay? Let's take this outside,” Ning said.

Suddenly, a divine sense was released from inside Ning as it traveled to each and every corner of the underground, falling onto all of the attackers there.

They all got alert and were ready for any attack. Ning raised an open palm into the air, scaring the Superior into moving back.

Then… he closed the palm.

Massive pulling force erupted with Ning at the center. People all around him got pulled towards him. However, surprisingly the people that got pulled were only the attackers.

The staff and the students watched as the attackers flew through the air towards Ning without their own volition.

Even the superior with his high cultivation base was pulled towards  Ning without being able to stop himself.

Ning's had to give up a large amount of energy to do just this, but thankfully, he had caught the people while they were relatively unaware, so he didn't have to spend more than he did.

He didn't want to think how much mental energy it would have taken him to move nearly 40 Nascent Soul realm cultivators if Telekinesis had instead used his mental strength instead of Energy.

He knew from back in Vilmore that multiple objects, so long as he used Telekinesis on them at the same time, counted towards one single weight.

Still, he had to use extreme mental focus to grab onto 40 different people at once and pull them together.

Once everyone collapsed together on top of him, he vanished.

Up above the forest to the northeast of the student's quarters, a massive ball comprising of 40 different individuals appeared.

”What?”

”How are we outside?”

”What technique is that?”

People started being surprised as they quickly got their footing when Ning stopped using Telekinesis.

Even the superior looked in horror at what was happening. 'Was there a teleportation formation inside that huge hall? How come I never knew that?' he wondered.

”Alright, since you all are out. Let's be civil and just talk it out, okay?” Ning said. He then turned to the Superior and said, ”Trebor, tell me what you know about the ways to reach the Spirit Transformation realm.”

”I'm not Trebor anymore. Trebor died a century ago. I am just a husk of my former shell, looking for a way to get my revenge,” the Superior said.

”And I will have it. One way or another. You are strong, but you can't stop all of my people from leaving, can you?”

Ning smiled when he heard that. ”I won't lie. If it wasn't for catching your people off guard, it will be impossible to stop all of you by myself,” Ning said.

”See, so you better mo—”

”That is… if I was by myself,” Ning said with a smile. ”Tell me, Trebor. What good do you think your subordinates here will fare when they have to fight in total darkness?”
