Chapter 716: Chapter 716: Official Student

No one had expected such an outcome, and as everyone stared at the rolling head, they were all dumbfounded.

At this point, even the two stewards watching were somewhat stunned, as the outcome was wholly beyond their expectations.

However, the situation was clear: Peter Brown had indeed won, and moreover, he had not violated any rules.

"You dare kill someone!" The one called Daniel never expected such a result. Juliett Dunhill had been pursued by him for some time, and unbelievably, Peter Brown publicly killed such a beauty.

"This is a Life-and-Death Arena. Why can’t I kill?" Peter Brown looked at the man called Daniel.

Peter knew that since killing Juliett Dunhill, he might have truly antagonized these young masters.

Of course, Peter had considered this. He had noticed that Juliett wasn’t a person with a broad mind. Even if he had spared her this time, she would also instigate others to cause trouble for him. Since there was already trouble, he wasn’t afraid of having more trouble. So once she was killed, she was killed.

As he stood on the Life and Death Arena, Peter’s Aura was also rising dramatically, giving off the appearance that he would battle anyone who dared challenge him.

At this moment, Daniel truly wanted to go up and fight a Life-and-Death battle with Peter, but he knew his limits. Although he himself was at the Foundation Establishment stage, he could only be on par with Juliett and couldn’t defeat her outright. Now that Juliett had been killed by Peter and that it seemed so effortless, would he be able to win if he went up?

This was a Life-and-Death arena! If that young man wasn’t going by the rules and he made a single mistake, wouldn’t it cost him his life?

Although Daniel was very fond of Juliett, he dared not risk his life.

Since Daniel didn’t make a move, none of the young masters dared to step up at this point. Instead, they could only curse from off stage.

Seeing that no one was coming up on stage, Peter turned to the two stewards and saluted them, saying, "According to the rules, can I become an official student now?"

The two stewards glanced at Peter and then at the young masters. They instantly felt caught in a tough situation.

One of them said, "Please wait a moment. This type of thing rarely happens. We must report to the County Magistrate first."

Peter simply didn’t leave the arena platform and sat cross-legged on it.

Although a lot of incidents happened in the Academy usually, today, a newcomer killed a beauty – and used low-level cultivation to defeat high-level cultivation to boot. In no time, the whole Academy heard of it, and the number of people who came to watch increased rapidly.

Peter sat cross-legged on the stage, but more and more people were gathering below. Everyone wanted to know the final outcome.

In the meantime, the two stewards hurried into a large Yamen Office.

As the two walked in, they quickly arrived at a Conference Hall.

At this moment, Ian Shore, the County Magistrate, was sitting cross-legged, examining an Elixir Formula. Seeing the two enter, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Is there a problem with the Life-and-Death Battle?"

"Honorable Magistrate, something has indeed happened, and we can’t make a decision."

Ian Shore looked at the two and said, "Go on."

The two then recounted the events between Peter Brown and Juliett Dunhill.

Upon hearing this, Ian Shore’s eyes narrowed, "Are you sure that the one called Peter Brown is at the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer?"

"That’s right. Once they entered the Life-and-Death Arena, they couldn’t hide their cultivation levels, and he is indeed at the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer."

"Honorable Magistrate, Juliett Dunhill was definitely going to be sent to the Shire Academy. Now that she’s been killed by Peter Brown, the impact is quite significant."

Ian Shore asked, "Did the one called Peter Brown commit any violations?"

"There was none."

Ian Shore then calmly said, "What do we preach in our Vast Sky Order? We preach rules. As long as he hasn’t violated any rules, there’s no issue. Since Juliett Dunhill has been killed, Peter Brown becoming an official student must be acknowledged. As for those who are unhappy with it, they can take to the Life-and-Death Arena and fight Peter. Of course, that also has to be done according to the rules; low-level cultivators can challenge high-level cultivators, but high-level cultivators can’t challenge low-level ones."

"Yes!"

The two understood Ian Shore’s intentions and knew what to do.

"The annual large-scale competition is about to begin. Our county has always underperformed, and we wanted to rely on a few Foundation Establishment students to save face. Now it seems they’re just flowers cultivated in a greenhouse, unable to grow without the wind and rain. It’s time to give them some tasks!"

Ian Shore then muttered to himself for a moment and looked at the two again, "That Peter Brown, pay close attention to him and see if he’s worth cultivating. If so, give him better conditions."

"I’m worried Peter Brown won’t be able to handle Elder Wills’ son, who seems relentless."

Elder Wills?

A special light shone in Ian Shore’s eyes as he snorted, "Warn Kit Nelson that everything must be done according to the rules. If they truly don’t follow the rules in this matter, they can’t blame me for being ruthless."

And so, the matter was settled.

People didn’t know the Magistrate’s opinion, and they were all discussing the outcome of Peter Brown’s case.

When they looked at Peter again, they found that Peter seemed to have no significant emotional changes in response to the situation, appearing quite calm as he sat there.

At this moment, Kit Nelson glared at Peter fiercely. This time, Peter had essentially issued a challenge to them.

Finally, after everyone had waited for a while, the two stewards hurried back.

All eyes turned to the two of them.

The one leading the pair looked at the crowd and said, "In Our Country, everything revolves around the national law. As long as they don’t violate the national law, we must support and affirm their actions. We all saw the situation between Peter Brown and Juliett Dunhill today. Peter Brown had no illegal actions, and it was Juliett Dunhill who violated the rules after Peter spared her the first time and attacked him again, resulting in her death. It was her mistake. The Magistrate doesn’t want to pursue her wrongdoings further; after all, the person is dead."

Then, he looked at Peter Brown and said, "Peter Brown was able to kill a Foundation Establishment expert with just the Qi Refining Eleventh Layer, and he did not break any rules. The County Magistrate has approved Peter Brown’s qualification to become an official disciple. From now on, Peter Brown is an official student of our Academy."

He really became an official student!

The onlookers were surprised to see Peter, who was already standing up. Today, Peter’s assertiveness had taught everyone a lesson.

At this moment, Peter also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was temporarily safe.
