Chapter 331: Chapter 286: The Dean’s Trip and Blue Star Industrial Planning (Two in One)

Sword Flower City, the inner city.

In the academy filled with the fragrance of roses, the headmistress, dressed like a lady of high society, was immediately alerted. She traveled in a luxurious carriage and soon met her outstanding student.

Matissa.

At first glance, she looked much as she had before she left, but a closer inspection revealed an inner radiance, a great strength concealed within her slender waist and arms.

It indeed seemed like she had made a breakthrough.

The guards would not have reported in panic for no reason.

However,

"How did you advance to the fourth Awakening so quickly? Do you feel any discomfort?"

The breakthrough was cause for celebration.

But it wasn’t necessarily entirely a good thing.

Matissa was a student she held in high regard. Among the graduates of the Rose Academy in recent sessions, she was arguably the best. The only pity was that Matissa’s family was only a minor noble house, not a grand one. If she had been the eldest daughter of a major noble house, her family could have easily provided her with a fourth-level Awakening Ceremony, and she wouldn’t have had to struggle on her own.

To struggle and serve as a messenger entering the new world came with significant dangers. However, as long as one secured sufficient benefits for Oasis, the messenger could also receive a generous reward.

A fourth-level Awakening Ceremony would suffice.

This ceremony not only significantly increased the chances of a successful Awakening, preventing immediate death in case of failure, but also ensured that during the process of Awakening, there was minimal contamination by mystical forces.

In other words, the level of contamination after Awakening had not increased too much.

Only then would there be a chance to vie for leadership-level or throne-level in the future.

Now that Matissa had Awakened on her own, she was certainly beyond human, but if the contamination was too severe, she would stay beyond human for her lifetime. Although that wasn’t bad, the headmistress of Rose Academy still felt a touch of pity.

Seeing the headmistress arrive, Matissa first gave a student salute, then said:

"I encountered some opportunities on Blue Star... that is, in that world, and luckily advanced to the fourth Awakening. As for discomfort... there probably isn’t any, I’m feeling quite spirited~"

Matissa flipped her hair, looked down at the tips of her shoes, and tried to charm her way through.

Seeing her like this, appearing rather normal without the symptoms of madness that come with high contamination, the headmistress of Rose Academy felt slightly relieved.

Could it be that this child was lucky and didn’t suffer too much contamination during her Awakening process?

"Come with me, let’s test your contamination level."

"Oh... right..."

Sword Flower City, after more than a hundred years of development and growth, boasted a rich foundation and various facilities, ceremonies, and artifacts were quite complete, having established their own training system.

Matissa then followed the headmistress to a place embraced by clusters of flowers.

Here blossomed flowers of all colors, arranged in consecutive circles, subtly outlining strange patterns.

Ceremonial patterns!

Matissa knew that this was one of the most advanced and accurate contamination-level testing rituals among the several available at Rose Academy.

She had only heard of it but had never been there before.

Upon the headmistress’s sign, she stood obediently on the only patch of bare ground amidst the thick clusters of flowers.

She was quite confident in herself.

Her mind was exceptionally clear, and although she occasionally felt a bit foggy and heard faint phantom sounds, none of these symptoms appeared after her fourth Awakening. It was very likely that her level of contamination was even lower than before her Awakening.

Seeing that Matissa was in position, serene and focused, the headmistress of Rose Academy nodded slightly. At her command, the attendant present retrieved a syringe and carefully dropped a wine-red liquid into the flower clusters.

In an instant,

within the ceremonial flower clusters, the half-open or bud-like flowers all bloomed at this moment, spreading out like dominos, along with the spreading was an invisible force wafting through.

The wind rustled Matissa’s sleeves and hair.

The fragrance of flowers filled the air, an invisible force weaving in and out.

After a while,

in front of the ceremonial flower clusters, a few symbols lit up, emitting a faint blue glow.

They represented a certain number, a degree of something, decipherable only by those with specialized knowledge. However, those present—whether the attendants responsible for the ceremony or the headmistress of Rose Academy herself—clearly understood the meaning of these symbols.

They couldn’t help but take a few glances.

Then a few more.

And a few more still.

Indeed, it was just those few azure runes that had lit up—nothing else.

The headmistress gave a look of disbelief, "Are you sure there’s no problem with the ceremony?"

The attendant assured her, "Headmistress, the ceremony definitely has no issues; we just used it this morning..."

Yet as he spoke, he also began to doubt himself.

In front of the headmistress, if anything went wrong, he could lose his position!

The attendant’s sweat poured down instantaneously.

While a few outside the ceremony stared with wide eyes in contemplation, inside the flower clusters and ceremonial patterns, Matissa waited left and right but did not receive the ’physical exam completed’ notification.

She couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

"Headmistress..."

She called out.

Could there be a problem? The headmistress’s expression seemed a bit strange.

"Come here, the testing ceremony might have a problem."

Hearing the headmistress say this, Matissa stepped through the flowers and came before the ceremonial patterns, looking at the mysterious runes representing values.

The interpretation seemed to be...

"0.2%?"

Seems, looks like, probably, maybe...

"Is it a bit low?"

Hearing Matissa’s murmur, the headmistress glanced at her in annoyance—it was not just ’a bit’ low.

She had the attendant check and adjust the ceremonial patterns again, then had Matissa retest.

After a moment,

the headmistress fell silent.

"Fanny, you go up and test."

She pointed to an attendant and asked her to step forward.
