Multi-Gene

One by one, the disciples produced their talisman and their storages rings, submitting presenting and submitting them to the elders and the sect masters.

Their rewards would be calculated and converted to contribution point which would be granted to them as soon as possible.

David released a slight smile as he saw the person that had come out next, it was Freya. He was glad she hadn't died at the trial.

Apart from himself, Freya and Vather, the others didn't go with them to the sacred realm after hearing about the amount of casualty that occured every time.

Freya wasn't in the best shape, as she seem exhausted. She must have gone through a lot this few months, but it wasn't anything to worry about as her eyes shine brightly and her temperament seem to have undergone a massive change.

"Present your spoils." The elders commanded.

Producing her emblem, she brought out only five storage rings and emptied them to the ground.

The elders couldn't help but be surprised at the amount of items that dropped. While some where miscellaneous items like the grade one herb and a few low mortal realm technique, the most important treasures she has brought was the ten high tier mortal realm techniques."

The elders weren't smiling previous and had stoic expressions on their faces since they all knew her origins and has assumed she would keep the good stuff to her self, and only leave the useless items to them. But judging from the loot she had dropped, it was highly likely she wasn't hiding much. 

Time went by rapidly and the amount treasures within the academy only increased as the disciples continued to drop their loots. 

Finally, David's eyes flickered as he saw who it was that came out next. It was a young man with an otherworldly aura. His hair and eyes were golden in colour seemingly absorbing the colour from the sun.

Even the people around him knew with just one look that he wasn't an ordinary person. 

The person was Vather. He came out with a lazy expression on his face as produced his emblem and dumped his storage rings on the ground. 

The instance the items within his storage rings were exposed, many people sucked in a deep breathe. 

Lying at the midst of his item were a total of 30 grade two herbs, ten grade three herbs, three grade four herbs and there was one particular bird that was shimmering a golden colour. 

It had been trapped in a cage, but what was more surprising was that the bird didn't give signs of a wild animal, but instead, it releases a medicinal fragrance and wafted into everyone's nose. 

The expression of the elders changed. It was a grade five herb! They couldn't help but be shocked. 

Three elders stood up at the same time and went forwards to inspect the bird. 

They glanced at each other and nodded their heads. "It's truly the Morning-tweet Dew."

"Hahaha! You have done well boy. You will be heavily rewards for you contribution to the academy. If you have any request, you can forward it to us after the ceremony." The sect master smiled as he praised. 

"Dean, this bit has shown a great potential, I am certain if he becomes my disciple, I can push him to peak-earth realm within ten year!" One one of the Elders suddenly asked. 

The Dean frowned at this. " we've talked about this there's no further than for discussion." his tone was firm and unrelenting. 

Not wanting to give up so easily the elder pushed. "Dean, why don't we ask him if he is willing to officially join our academy. If he says yes, then you cannot refuse if he takes me as his master. "

The Dean thought for a bit and then nodded his head. Vather was a student of the institute. It was impossible for him to allow him to accept guidance from his people when he hu wasn't a true member of the academy. Some secrets might be spilled unintentionally which would affect the whole academy if the institute hit a hold of it. He didn't want that to happen which was why he had flatly refused.

"Boy, are you willing to renounce your title as a student of the institute and accept the new identity as a student of this great academy?!" The elder asked with solemnity in his tone. 

Vather blinked his eyes lazily and shook his head slightly. "No I don't."

A flash of disappointment flickered through the Elders eyes. And even the dream was also disappointed but he had expected this. Vather was a very strong person and a very talented individual, the Institute surely wouldn't let him join the Academy so easily without putting up a fight so it was going to be trouble if they snatch him away from the Institute. 

" calculating the technique submitted there are five techniques of the high tier mortal rank and a single one of the low Earth rank!"

Even the elders announcing it was shocked and the students were in awe. But David scoffed slightly. He was sure that with the starry world, Vather had snatched more than twenty mortal rank technique and up to ten earth rank technique. 

He was only keeping it for himself. Because the rewards offered when they present the technique to the institute was even more enticing than the academy.

" You shall be rewarded after the ceremony, keep up the good work." the Elders in charge of calculating the loot said. 

Finally it was David's turn. Most people were surprised when he came out seeing as he was only still a mortal level expert

While there were people who are still at the mortal-level stages, they were those with very low potential and have been hiding throughout the beginning of the sacred realm. 

Scornful looks of disdain levered at him as he came out. While David didn't mind them, he wanted to shout that it wasn't his fault, it was his stupid pet that ate the medicinal plants he wanted to use to advance.

But he took in a deep breathe as he walked forwards. Bringing out just one storage ring and his emblem, he presented it to the elders. 

Seeing it was David who had come out. The elders all had various change of expression as they gazed at David coldly. 

If they remembered correctly, it was David who had sent one of their members flying out of this very all in a single strike, humiliating them entirely. How could they not remember him?

Seeing as David brought out a single storage ring, the elder in charge stared blankly at him as though asking him. 'Where are the rest?'

David also stared blankly at the old man as though saying this is the only thing I have with me. 

"Do you think this is a joke?" One of the elders seem to have had enough as he stood up and angrily asked. 

David frowned slightly and he stares coldly at the Oldman and then proceeded to ignore him. 

Seeing this, the elders eyes opened wide i anger. "Y-you!"

"Elder Di, behave like a senior and seat down. Sixth elder let's see what is within the storage ring."

The sixth elder nodded and shrugged he was already disappointed at David's talents, if there was nothing of note within the storage ring, then he wouldn't be surprised in the least. With that, he proceeded to open the storage ring. 

Bam. 

A book fell off the storage ring, and that was all. The Dean's eyes twitched slightly and he did his best to control his emotions other otherwise he would have crushed his chair out of anger. 

The student blinked their eyes as though they couldn't believe it and burst into laughter.

The sixth elder glanced at the book and back towards David's innocent expression. If not because he was slightly afraid of David, he would have laid him down and give a good beating. 

Taking in a deep breathe, he smiled weirdly in order not to make things too awkward. "Your rewards will be given to you after the ceremony, you may leave.

David was about to go, but then he felt that the reaction the elders were having was the opposite of what he thought they would have when seeing the book.

Which meant that they didn't see it. David's eyes flashed and he picked the book up, accidentally revealing the High-Tier earth rank technique written at the top of the book. 

"Wait!" The senses of the elders and the Dean have already surpassed that of an ordinary human, therefore they were able to notice something down to the tiniest details within a few meters away from them. 

The moment David flipped the book over from the ground, they had immediately seen what was written at the cover and didn't dare to let David taken it away. 

David rolled his eyes. So it was true, they had not seen the content of the book previously and had judged so quickly but now that he had revealed it to them, they quickly told him to wait.

'Lets get this over with and let me return to the institute fast. Those heaven realm experts aren't fools, they will soon find out my identity and my location, better to hurry things up here.' David muttered. 

The sixth elder grabbed the book out from David's hands and as he read the cover, his eyes opened very widely!

It was a true High-tier earth realm technique, The Blinking Sword technique. There was only one High-tier technique within the academy and only the Dean had been able to practice it. And it had allowed him to keep the academy safe from the hands of those who wished to devour it. 

This was the first time the sixth elder was holding such a technique in his hands. Therefore, he immediately opened the manual as though he wanted to quickly memorise the content of the book. 

The other seven elders immediately flew towards him. "Sixth elder, you can't do that!"

The Dean's facial expression spammed and he immediately cleared his throat. The sound was soft to the students, but to the shameless elder's fighting for the technique, it resounded like thunder and they were finally back to their senses. 

With their thick skin that was even enough to block bullets, they acted as though what they had done was incredibly normal and went back to their seat. 

"Shameless!" The Dean spat out. 

"Sixth elder, continue with the ceremony." While he was also tempted to view the contents of the technique, he was the Dean and he needed to behave like one. 

"Yes Dean." The elder bowed and then turned to face David. His expression was now filled with respect and awe as he took in a deep breath. 

"Your rewards will be sent to you after the ceremony." 

David nodded his head and turned to join the crowds. The hundreds of students were immediately shocked with what had happened. What could David have possibly given the elders to make them act as though they were on drugs?

But there was no answer to this question of theirs and David was definitely not going to answer anything. 

Roughly 30 minutes later, the ceremony came to an end. 

"Freta, David and Vather. The Dean sent for you." A disciple said out to the crowds. 

The three of them nodded their heads in response. And within three minutes, they were already standing before the Dean. 

The Dean had his eyes closed and the book Blinking Sword Art was just beside him. It seems he had been trying to comprehend the profundities of the technique. 

"You three are here." he opened his eyes all of a sudden. His eyes seem to penetrate through their skin as though peering through their secrets, but he smiled bitter in his heart. 

He could only see through Freya.. As for the other two students before him, they were simply monsters.
