Chapter 54 - Awakening Stone
Harrison thought that Mike would say something nice. However, his actions were just too shameless.
Sibis was so angry that his face turned red. His body was trembling. He pointed at Harrison and Mike.
“Shameless! Too shameless!”
At that moment, someone knocked on the principal’s office door.
“Come in.”
Teacher Chris opened the door and walked in with Vincent.
Sibis looked at the two of them.
“Principal, Vincent is here.”
As Vincent entered, the five people that were in the room looked at him with eager eyes.
Vincent knew Harry and Miller. They had met once before.
He greeted them by nodding slightly. He then walked to Principal Sibis.
“Principal Sibis.”
Sibis looked at Vincent and suddenly thought of an idea. He quickly walked out from behind his desk and patted Vincent’s shoulder affectionately.
“Good! Not bad! Looks like you did not laze around even after returning from the battlefield! As expected of a pupil of Sibis!”
Pupil?
Everyone was stunned especially, Harrison and Mike.
At their level, the word “pupil” was not something that could be used casually.
Once it was used, it meant that the two of them would be bounded forever.
One of them would prosper and the other one would perish!
Vincent was confused as well. Did he just become Sibis’s pupil?
“This old guy is becoming more and more shameless.”
Harrison complained to Mike in a low voice.
Mike nodded in agreement.
“Come, Vincent, let me introduce you. This is the principal of St. John Advanced Superpower School, Harrison.”
“This is the principal of Mokissner Advanced Superpower School, Mike.”
Although Vincent did not know what had happened, he still took the initiative to bow to the two of them as a sign of respect.
“Not bad! Not bad! He has good manners. He is a good seedling!”
Harrison praised Vincent.
“Are you interested in coming to St. John? You’re so talented, I guarantee that all of St. John’s resources will be available to you.”
Mike quickly chimed in and promised Vincent the same thing.
Sibis did not expect the two of them to still hang on to the idea of snatching Vincent. They did not give up.
He was so angry that he panted heavily.
“Are you two done yet?”
“Sibis, what do you mean by that? We’re just telling Vincent our conditions and we want to hear his decision. You can’t possibly interfere with his freedom, right?”
Harrison looked at Sibis suspiciously and then gave Vincent a pitiful look.
Mike nodded in agreement.
“Don’t you dare accuse me! I did not interfere with Vincent’s freedom, but he is my student. Don’t be shameless!”
Sibis’s expression changed. As the principal, if he interfered with the freedom of a student, he would be court-martialed.
Vincent looked at the three of them. They were almost 300 years old. Why were they still arguing like children?
Obviously, he knew why the three of them were acting that way. It was because of him.
They wanted him to attend their school and become their student.
After seeing the three of them arguing endlessly, Vincent scratched the back of his head and looked to Teacher Chris for help.
Teacher Chris just smiled at Vincent. She did not say or do anything.
Although she did not want him to leave, she would still be happy if Vincent was able to train in a better environment.
This was not because she thought that Quinn could not teach Vincent well. It was because she wanted Vincent to have more resources and benefits.
The three principals who were arguing had already agreed to provide Vincent with at least B-Class psionic equipment.
There was not much psionic equipment available in Quinn. Plus, they were very little equipment that could reach B-Class.
“The two of you are getting on my nerves!”
Mike’s eyes were red. He looked like a gambler who had lost badly.
“Vincent, as long as you come to Mokissner, you can use the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited,” said Mike.
Sibis and Harrison looked at him in shock. They fell silent.
The Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited was from the black hole. Mokissner had paid a huge price to obtain it.
A person without any talent could instantly become a genius with just one drop of the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited.
This was because the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited would allow them to have a much better understanding of their superpower. For instance, if they wanted to train their combat skills, they would only need to put in half their effort and they could get twice the result.
However, this was not even the most powerful aspect of the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited. The most powerful aspect was that it did not have any side effects. Moreover, it would not weaken the effect if one used it often.
In Mokissner, only a few high-ranking officials and individuals who had made great contributions to the academy were qualified to get a drop of it every year.
Mike was willing to use the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited on Vincent. This was really shocking.
Although Vincent did not know what the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited was, he could tell from the expressions of everyone present that it was a rare treasure.
He was honestly very tempted.
He thought that the conditions provided by the teachers previously were good enough. He did not expect the principals to provide him with even better conditions.
Although he was tempted, Vincent had no intention of going to Mokissner.
On one hand, it was only a matter of time until he became stronger. With the system by his side, he did not have much desire for the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited.
On the other hand, Quinn could provide him with clues regarding the disappearance of his parents. That was what he wanted most.
He also had teachers and friends who cared for him in Quinn. These were things that he could not give up.
Just as he wanted to speak up and stop the three principals from arguing, Sibis took a deep breath and looked solemnly at Teacher Chris. He raised his hand and took out a black token.
“Chris, take my token and go to the treasure vault to get the Awakening Stone.”
Harrison and Mike both gasped when they heard what he said.
Harrison said in a deep voice, “Sibis, are you serious?”
Mike also had a serious look on his face.
“Sibis, that’s something you left for yourself in case you need it!” said Mike.
Teacher Chris took the token and turned to leave. Before she left, she looked at Vincent with envy.
Vincent could tell from their expression that the Awakening Stone was more precious than the Epiphany Holy Water Unlimited.
“Sibis, you have to think carefully. After so many years, we have only found one Awakening Stone,” said Harrison.
Sibis waved his hand. “It’s just a stone. If we can’t find it now, it doesn’t mean that we can’t find it in the future. I haven’t had the time to use it yet.”
He then revealed a smug expression. “You two old geezers, if you can provide Vincent with something of the same level as the Awakening Stone, Vincent can go with you. I won’t say anything else!”
Harrison and Mike looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
They really did not have anything of the same level as the Awakening Stone.
Shortly afterward, Teacher Chris walked in with a black box that was made of an unknown material.
“Principal, the Awakening Stone.”
Sibis took it and handed it over to Vincent.
Vincent had made his decision earlier. At the same time, he apologized to Harrison and Mike.
Vincent also learned about the function of the Awakening Stone from Sibis.
It could allow a superpower user to awaken another superpower of the same level.
For example, if Sibis had an S-Class superpower and used it, he would awaken another S-Class superpower.
This shocked Vincent to the core.
He was about to have four S-Class superpowers?
Two superpowers were already very rare. Three superpowers were as rare as Phoenix Feathers and Qilin Horns. Four superpowers were absolutely unprecedented!
Moreover, it was an S-Class superpower. Vincent had no idea how powerful he would become after using the Awakening Stone.
He was looking forward to it.
