silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A projection of Dean appears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, the faces of everyone changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the expression of the Beast Bloodline Faction Leader condensed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It looks like everyone is seriously discussing,” Jerome said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that everyone in the room understood that Dean must have heard everyone’s conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jerome swept his eyes across everyone before saying, “I have just checked the secret land near our territory.” “It has restrictions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the warriors below the Black Mark Rank can enter it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Each Faction can send one or two Monster Hunting Squads to explore,” He added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that old Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clifford’s eyes flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking that the Zeroth Squad was spared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it changes nothing.  Because the Dark Variant Faction could target the warriors below the Black Mark Rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing can be done right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the dean has said it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He can only quickly arrange a quick meeting and then discuss it with the Main Elders in his faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other Faction Leaders fell into contemplation..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly one of the Faction Leaders from the Medium Sized Faction stood up and said, “Dean, I think it’s not good to send all the Monster Hunting Squads together.” “Already, there are conflicts between the different factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they go this time, instead of exploring the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could kill each other.” Hearing that other small and medium-sized Faction Leaders supported this argument.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They fear that Monster Hunting Squads from the top 10 Faction might eliminate their small and fewer teams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If something bad happens to them, it could lead them to disband their faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In return, it would benefit the top 10 factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the University doesn’t have to distribute resources to extra factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the main fear of these Small and Medium Sized Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are usually at risk of disbanding in any situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this exploration mission is something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could put every small team in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the small and medium-sized factions are standing United against the Top 10 Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Humph, idiots,” The Leader, Beast Bloodline Faction muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, the other top 10 Faction Leaders responded with an arrogant attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They say these small and medium-sized Factions are leeches which are sucking the resources of the Star University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they don’t want to take risks, then there is no meaning in the factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quarrel!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small commotion takes place as the bickering and quarrels start to happen.  Clifford, the Head of the Thunderflame Faction shakes his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he doesn’t support these small and medium-sized factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he can understand their genuine concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome watches everything in silence before uttering, “Quiet” His words fell like a thunderclap in everyone’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then everyone sat back in their seats and looked at the Dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They know the power of the Dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice just now made many Purple Rank and Half-Step Red  Rank Leaders shudder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome then said, “Did you guys forget the real purpose of the Faction?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not just developing Monster Hunting Squads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>” Quiet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that hall becomes silent once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone remembered the main purpose of these Factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Leader, Beast Bloodline Faction furrowed his eyebrows.   Seeing that everyone has come to their senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Jerome said, “I understand the troubles of the small and medium-sized factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So let the Monster Hunting Squads from one faction explore first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They will have a day to explore.” “On the second day, let the next faction explore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that way, let each faction have one day to explore the secret land,” He added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the small and medium-sized factions immediately agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the top 10 factions showed dissatisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in this way it would take a lot of time to explore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they take longer,  the news could leak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they have to be careful in their operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clifford, the Faction Leader of Thunderflame Faction, was happy with the result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, everyone could avoid the bloodbath.  Their ultimate purpose is to explore the secret land, not to kill each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If people want to kill, then there are several other places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Other Top 10 Faction Leaders reluctantly agreed as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If their warriors return safely, it’s also good for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then which faction goes first?” Jerome asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Small and Medium Factions’ Leaders’ gazes fell on the Top 10 Faction Leaders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they are staying silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Secret Lands are not ordinary places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each secret land comes with a risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They don’t know what kind of monsters are living in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The First Squad, which dares to go there, have to face all the dangers by themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone comes out alive, they can pass the information to others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the next squad can be readily prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So selecting the First Monster Hunting Squad is not going to be easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is going to be a mortality rate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the Top 10 Faction Leaders are looking at each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were Black Mark Warrior and above, these Leaders wouldn’t worry this much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Dean is asking for warriors below Black Mark Rank to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faction Leader Clifford was silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is recalling the warriors that he knows of in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the image of Zack Lockwood comes to his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The recent news regarding Zack Lockwood was reported to him daily as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knows that Austin had given growth-type purple lightning seed to Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the fusion was complete.  He knows the power of the purple lightning after its fusion with growth-type purple lightning seed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he thinks Zack can fight across the ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he knows Zack has two more elements as well.  With blood and healing elements, he thinks Zack has more chances to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he doesn’t know whether Austin or Ann will agree with him.  Dean Jerome decides to select the faction on his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, “Alright, I’ll select the faction first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The First Team, which is going to explore the secret land, is going to be from the Thunderflame Faction.” Hearing that everyone turned towards Clifford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man Clifford was shocked but still nodded his head to the Dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Aravind_S Creation is hard, cheer me up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>VOTE for me!\u003C\u002Fp>",1058,"2026-06-05T15:57:06.191Z",1,"novelbin.me","25727ec33aee9954b9830af04e2cc4ddd6274813af4a438b61744cd13ef4457b","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-995","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-993",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
