The Purple Mark Guard informed Dean Jerome about their return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, other Elders were discussing their losses. Among the losses were the disciples of the main elders of the Top 10 Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, everyone had thought it was just a secret land like any other. But the dangers inside shocked them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to other secret lands, the monsters inside this one were terrifying and dangerous. It showed them the risk of entering an unknown secret land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next time, they would think twice before letting the warriors take such risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sky Carrier reached the Star University border. After entering, it took a few minutes for the Sky Carrier to return to the main area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once it flew over Star City, people on the ground looked up. They recognized the Sky Carrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speed of the Sky Carrier was reduced. It was moving slowly towards the University. The formations covering Star University were deactivated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The recovered warriors were standing on the deck, while the injured ones were inside the rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, I opened my eyes, hearing the loud conversations around me. I turned towards the window and spotted the familiar scene on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I realized we were very close to Star University. I continued to stay in my seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was sure someone would ask me about Neil Smith. I had to be ready. Of course, I couldn’t tell them the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was going to say I never saw him. After figuring that out, I felt relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the Sky Carrier entered Star University and went to the landing platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It slowly landed on the ground. Right then, many figures appeared before the Sky Carrier. They were the Faction Leaders of the Top 10 Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was waiting to receive their faction warriors. The Purple Mark Guard then gave permission for everyone to disembark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warriors started leaving one after another. They could see their Faction Leaders waiting outside, so they went towards them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, I left the cabin and came to the deck. I could see warriors leaving one by one. My gaze wandered around before finding Faction Leader Clifford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, I flew towards him. I felt many gazes on me the next second, especially from the Faction Leaders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Humph,\" Clifford gave a cold snort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was dissatisfied with the others’ actions just now; it was a provocation. The other Faction Leaders didn’t check further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They confirmed that Zack Lockwood was still a Black Mark Warrior. They heaved a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zack Lockwood had become a Silent Mark Warrior, it would have shocked them to the core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they didn’t know Zack Lockwood had undergone a major transformation, which was far more important than a breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clifford then turned towards Zack Lockwood. Seeing that Zack was still a Black Mark Warrior, he sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had held some expectations. But then he realized that Zack was just being normal right now. They shouldn’t put too much pressure on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clifford continued to wait there. The Black Mark Warriors, Silver Mark Warriors, and Gold Mark Warriors of our faction had come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the numbers were few. Neil Smith never made it back. This was the same situation for the other sides. They too had casualties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s going on?\" Clifford asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found out the number of people returning was low. The other Faction Leaders saw this and started asking the same questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sky Carrier was empty. All the warriors had returned. But the Faction Leaders were still looking at the carrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Purple Mark Guard looked towards everyone. He then said, \"This time we suffered heavy casualties. It is the same situation for Red Moon University.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loud gasps sounded everywhere. The Thunderflame Faction Leader Clifford, the Blazing Fire Faction Leader Elmer Maddox, and other Faction Leaders were shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faction Leader Clifford immediately thought of Neil Smith and the others. Especially Neil Smith, who was the 3rd Disciple of Main Elder Austin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blazing Fire Faction Leader Elmer said, \"How can you say that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What happened there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Purple Mark Guard said, \"The Secret Land was filled with Class-11 and Class-12 Monsters. We don’t know whether it had Class-13s.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The 10 Gold Mark Warriors might have faced Class-13 Monsters. You can ask the rest of the questions to your warriors.\" After saying that, he took the Sky Carrier and left the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was going to report to the Dean. The other Elders who accompanied him had returned to their own Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faction Leader Clifford’s expression was ugly. He then turned towards us and said, \"Let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the seniors and I exchanged looks. Then we started following him to the Thunderflame Faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faction Leader Elmer’s face darkened. He took his warriors and left the place. Then the Faction Leaders departed one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was huge news. They had lost so many lives. It was one thing to lose lives to foreign creatures, but so many warriors dying in a secret land was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was something that hadn’t happened in a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome was in his office. He had already noticed the arrival of the Sky Carrier. The Purple Mark Guard appeared in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dean, we have returned. But the secret land turned out to be a calamity. We have casualties. It was found to have Class-11 and Class-12 Monsters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I suspect there is a Class-13 Monster inside that secret land,\" he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome frowned. It was indeed bad news. He was not expecting this many casualties, although infighting was common.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the warriors from the same faction killed each other, he wouldn’t be surprised. But the presence of the high-class monsters dealt a heavy blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then thought of Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned towards the guard and asked, \"What about the kid, Zack?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Purple Mark Guard said, \"Dean, he is safe. But his expression was not right. He seemed disturbed by something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome said, \"Hmmm, he is a Black Mark Warrior. He could have faced those monsters. It’s fortunate that he survived in the end.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1037,"2026-06-05T15:57:19.580Z",1,"novelbin.me","bd0c7c000cf41e9d12a8d8372d26dd3437897e869b0356d39cc899494a005004","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-1328","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-1326",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
