Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Senior Students

""Wyatt Barnes!"

Wyatt Barnes nodded at Enzo Hawkins in response.

"Wyatt Barnes?"

Enzo Hawkin’s brow lifted slightly in surprise, "Are you a direct descendant of the Barnes family?"

Apart from Remi Sinclair and Seeker Sinclair, a few students who were familiar with the Barnes family in the Imperial City also looked at Wyatt Barnes.

The younger generation of the direct line of the Barnes family uses the character ’Wyatt’ in their name...

However, including Enzo Hawkins, all felt it was strange. If Wyatt Barnes were really a part of the Barnes family, he shouldn’t be unknown.

Not to mention the strategies he just came up with is enough to show that he’s ’shrewd and cunning’. Entering the Sacred Martial Institute at the age of eighteen is also quite rare.

"No."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head.

So what if the blood of the Barnes family’s direct line flowed through his veins?

That indifferent family...he had nothing but disdain for them!

"Sit down then."

Enzo Hawkins nodded. If Wyatt Barnes was not a son of the Barnes family, it made sense.

The Crimson Heaven Kingdom has vast territories, and there are quite a few people with the surname Barnes. It’s not surprising.

The other students also breathed a sigh of relief.

"I knew it! If he were a son of the Barnes family, he probably would have been well known in the Imperial City by now."

"However, even if he’s not a son of the Barnes family, passing the Sacred Martial Institute’s ’entrance evaluation’ at such a young age is the work of a freak!"

Many students glanced at Wyatt Barnes with slight apprehension.

"This Wyatt Barnes, not only does he have an outstanding martial arts talent, his mind is also extraordinarily quick...it’s impressive that he could come up with the ’deceive the heavens’ strategy!"

Seeker Sinclair glanced at Wyatt Barnes and admiration welled up within him.

Remi Sinclair’s gaze flickered. Although he was also surprised by Wyatt Barnes’ strategy, when he thought about the miracles Wyatt Barnes had created in Aurora City, he was relieved.

In his eyes...

Wyatt Barnes is a ’little monster’!

At this moment, Enzo Hawkin’s voice reached them, "Wyatt Barnes’ ’deceive the heavens’ strategy is flawless, even my strategy partly embodies the essence of the ’deceive the heavens’ stratagem. Overall, it is inferior to his ’deceive the heavens’ strategy!"

Wow!

As soon as Enzo Hawkins finished speaking, he unsurprisingly stirred up an uproar in the classroom.

They never expected the esteemed teacher from the Sacred Martial Institute’s ’Star System’ would express an attitude of inadequacy towards a freshman in his words...

However, when they thought about it, they understood.

Wyatt Barnes’ ’deceive the heavens’ strategy is indeed worthy of respect, it was invincible.

"This teacher is quite interesting."

Wyatt Barnes stared at Enzo Hawkins, slightly surprised.

Generally speaking, teachers care a lot about their dignity and would never admit that they are inferior to a student in any aspect...

Yet Enzo Hawkins was frank and open, showing not a bit of shame.

Such a demeanor is admirable!

Soon, a morning passed in Enzo Hawkin’s ’long-winded lecture’...

It must be said, Enzo Hawkin’s classes were quite interesting and interactive. Throughout the morning, not a single one of the eighteen new students was distracted.

Enzo Hawkin’s extensive knowledge even impressed Wyatt Barnes!

Nearing noon, Enzo Hawkins collected Wyatt Barnes and the others’ ’admission verification’ and distributed a delicate token to each person. Both sides were exactly the same, except for some patterns on the edge, the word ’Sacred Martial’ was engraved in the middle.

"This is the Sacred Martial Institute’s ’Student Token’, from now on you can use this token to enter and exit the Sacred Martial Institute..."

As Enzo Hawkins said this, his wise gaze, suddenly became sharp, "However, if anyone uses this token, in the name of being a Sacred Martial Institute student, to oppress the good and commit crimes outside, the Sacred Martial Institute has the right to reclaim the token and expel them from the Sacred Martial Institute!"

Enzo Hawkin’s warning discouraged some students who had just planned to show off with the token.

They had gone through great difficulties to enter the Sacred Martial Institute. The hardship, only they knew.

Now that they have become students of the Sacred Martial Institute, they are the centre of attention, bringing glory to their family.

If they were expelled from the Sacred Martial Institute, it would be an absolute disgrace!

"The Sacred Martial Institute is divided into six grades, you are all freshmen of the first grade. Freshmen have five days of classes and two days off... according to the institute’s rules, ’Star System’ students have classes in the classroom in the morning, eat in the institute’s cafeteria at noon, and have free activities in the Martial Arts Performance Field in the afternoon. You can discuss martial arts with others, or practice actual combat, but you must not harm each other’s lives!"

After finishing his speech, Enzo Hawkins left.

"Let’s go and have lunch!"

Seeker Sinclair stood up and called out to Wyatt Barnes and Remi Sinclair.

The three of them went to the cafeteria, found an empty table, and sat down.

The cafeteria in the Sacred Martial Institute is similar to the restaurants outside. Before long, a server came over and respectfully asked: "What would you like to eat, gentlemen?"

The three of them ordered some dishes and a pot of wine.

"Master Hawkins today was extraordinarily knowledgeable, it’s impressive."

Remi Sinclair exclaimed.

"Indeed."

Wyatt Barnes agreed.

Seeker Sinclair looked at Wyatt Barnes with a strange expression, "Wyatt Barnes, it’s not surprising that Remi admires Master Hawkins... But you, a student who could think of the ’deceive the heavens’ plan and make Master Hawkins admit his inferiority, admiring Master Hawkins?"

The more he pondered on Wyatt Barnes’ "Masking Sky and Crossing Sea" strategy discussed in today’s class, the deeper and more profound it seemed to him!

This tactic could not only be used on the battlefield, but in many other aspects as well...

It was an extremely practical strategy!

Hearing Seeker Sinclair’s words, an embarrassed smile appeared at the corner of Wyatt’s mouth.

The "Masking Sky and Crossing Sea" strategy wasn’t something he had come up with himself, but a direct copy from "The Thirty-Six Stratagems" from his previous life...

Now that Seeker Sinclair claimed it was his idea, Wyatt couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

Soon, more and more students filled the restaurant.

Among these students were newcomers around the age of twenty, students in their early twenties, and even older upperclassmen.

In no time at all, the spacious dining hall was full of people.

Some students had to stand on the side and wait.

"Wyatt Barnes!"

A familiar voice came from afar, it was Tiggi Field and Walter Simmons...

The table wasn’t large, but it could accommodate five people if they squeezed a bit.

"Why are you guys so late?"

Wyatt was a little surprised.

"Don’t mention it, there are so many people in our ’General Star System’, and we were split into two extra classes... We were unlucky to be assigned to Rohan Knox’s class, that man is a maniac. He only spoke a few words about ’The Way of the General’ in the classroom and then dragged us to the Martial Arts Performance Field to run. We ran the whole morning, I’m exhausted." Tiggi Field grumbled.

Only then did Wyatt notice that Tiggi’s clothes were soaked with sweat.

"Tiggi, isn’t it just that you can’t keep up? I see Walter Simmons doesn’t look flushed or short of breath at all... It doesn’t seem as bad as you describe." Remi Sinclair looked at Walter Simmons, who was sitting casually, and laughed mockingly.

"Can I compare with him? He’s just a freak..." Tiggi Field was about to call Walter Simmons a ’freak’, but then noticed Walter’s steely gaze and quickly shut his mouth.

"In this case, our ’Star System’ is easier compared to you guys. We spent the whole morning in the classroom enjoying ourselves," Seeker Sinclair laughed.

"If I knew this earlier, I would have chosen the ’Star System’," Tiggi Field regretted.

"Are you cut out for that?" Walter Simmons snorted disdainly.

Wyatt and the others all laughed. If Tiggi were actually put in a position to strategize, he really would be in a difficult situation.

In no time, a hot meal was served.

Wyatt asked the waiter for two extra pairs of chopsticks.

They all picked up their chopsticks, ready to eat.

"Hey! You four, drop the money for this meal and you can leave."

At this moment, an abrupt voice broke the brief silence at Wyatt’s table.

Wyatt’s face darkened as he looked at the speaker.

The person who spoke was a young man in his early twenties, accompanied by three other youths of similar age. Wyatt guessed that these four were second-year students.

"Are you kidding me?" Tiggi Field glared with his large eyes, not at all intimidated, and stared back at the man leading the opposing group.

"Kid, I’m telling you to drop the money and clear off, didn’t you hear?" The leading young man’s face darkened.

Last year at this time, being threatened by upperclassmen, fitting in as a new student, although he felt indignation, she still sensibly left the money for his food and left...

Now, the academy had new students, he thought he could show off the prestige of an upperclassman, but who knew he’d run into a tough nut.

He was losing face.

"Did you not hear when I said to get lost?"

"Remember to leave the money for this meal, consider it as your respect towards us. We’ll take care of you in the future at the academy."

"What are you looking at, scram!"

The other young men also started speaking, each appearing as angry as the next.

Wyatt glanced around and found that many new students were also facing similar situations...

Most of the new students chose to swallow their anger, leave the money, and let the upperclassmen who threatened them enjoy the feast they had ordered.

"These days, there are these annoying flies everywhere. It’s so bothersome," Wyatt shook his head and sighed. He started to eat, treating the four upperclassmen as if they were air.

Tiggi Fields, who was initially infuriated, was taken aback by Wyatt’s words and couldn’t help but laugh, "Yeah, didn’t expect flies to be this broke, they can’t even afford a meal... Tut, in my opinion, if you have no money that’s fine, just kneel down and sing a tune, perhaps if I’m in a good mood, I might generously spare you some small change."

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes and Tiggi Field’s words, Remi Sinclair and Seeker Sinclair couldn’t help but laugh, ignoring the angry upperclassmen and continued eating.

As for Walter Simmons, he was eating the food on their table, his face grave and stern, showing little emotion.

"You...you..." The leading young man among the upperclassmen had turned livid, with anger welling up in his eyes.
