Helping those in need!

Gu Hui and his group's faces morphed and he stepped forward to protest but before he could move a muscle, an enormous pressure descended upon him locking him in place.

"You don't deserve to be Cultivators you two," he told the lustful two, "and you, you said you are from some Gu family or something? I don't care, anyway you still succumbed to your desire and aren't even a tenth of Flav's talent and you get praised?!" Carter said seemingly fed up.

"You two also fail," Sapphire coldly told them. "What kind of fucked up test results are these! Even though my tests are hard, I made sure to make them easy for you and you still failed miserably! I am sure happy to have found Iris before getting a heart attack from you two!"

Iris and Flav almost cursed the examiners for including them and making the groups that seemed to be ignoring them notice them. Li and Dumdum didn't care though.

When Gu Hui felt insulted and wanted to threaten with his family, Carter's suppression made his dumb mind understand he would surely get it if he did and shut up. But when he got compared to someone, his stupid and fragile pride got hurt which made him focus his anger on Li's group.

"Hey you! If you dare, how about you fight us for the Academy positions!" he haughtily taunted, not even checking their level of Cultivation or Magic circles.

Flav sighed and rolled his eyes. He looked at Iris and said while pointing with his finger to the back, "should we go put them in their place even though we don't need to?"

Iris didn't care either way but seeing that they were about to make some ruckus and delay their trip she nodded.

Flav smirked devilishly at her nod and looked at the haughty Gu Hui, "sure."

As soon as Flav's words reached Gu Hui, a fist had already slammed itself onto Gu Hui's face, throwing him several meters in the air and making him stop by colliding with the labyrinth door.

When the group saw what happened to Gu Hui they blanched. Sarah and Yuu looked at each other and nodded. Sarah approached Flav flirtatiously with her red hair swaying while Yuu approached him in a timid way and looked down making her black hair cover her face.

'They sure am looking down on me huh?' Flav thought seeing what they did.

While Yuu and Sarah did their act, Filth and Tray started screaming, "you must be young master Flav! Master Carter was just telling us about how brilliant you are!"

As the two shifted their botlicking and silver tongues from Gu Hui to Flav, Iris had already reached next to Flav and commented, "stop wasting time."

Sword scratches appeared on Tray and Filth's faces while blood leaked from them, 'who, when?' they couldn't even fathom when Iris scratched them, she who was a mage was able to easily deal with a Cultivator and a mage.

"Fine, fine," Flav waved his hand. "If you don't want to die, leave now!" He told them, narrowing his eyes dangerously.

Taking his words seriously, the group took Gu Hui and scurried away to the side.

Carter and Sapphire looked at the two dealing with the trash and smiled contentedly. [This is how you deal with these kinds of people,] Sapphire transmitted, getting a simple satisfied nod from Carter.

While the remaining students conversed with each other and speculated about Li's group ignoring the messed up group, Iris and Flav had already returned to their positions only to hear the conversation between Li and Dumdum which made them facepalm.

"Hey, Dumdum," Li who watched on boredly, "can't you try killing me again."

Rolling his eyes for the umpteenth time, the small panther repliedm "wait till we get to the academy, we will find someone to do it then."

"Now, thank you so much for participating in this years Ascension Academy trials. The participants that have not passed, fret not, in five years time you will be allowed to try again as long as your under twenty five. Now, go back to your the Labyrinth and you'll be transported out." Carter explained to the failed rejects with formality.

"Hmph, I am sure a more competent Academy will realise my greatness. Let's go everyone" Gu Hui grumbled in annoyance and gestured to his entourage to follow.

The group Gu Hui led in all followed but Carter intervened "Wait Mark. In case you haven't heard, you passed so your part of Ascension Academy. "

Mark stopped with his eyes wide open.

Noticing Mark stopping without his order, Gu Hui looked back "Mark! Come here now! Did I order you to stop? We are leaving! I will punish you for halting us!"

"y-yes young master" Mark timidly replied with his deep voice. Mark began to move but Carter's hand gripped his shoulder, halting him in place. Instinctively, Mark elbowed Carter with full force which Carter used his free hand to grip Mark's elbow causing a shock wave to emit, cracking the ground beneath them.

"Pretty impressive. I won't let you off the next time you attack an examiner" Carter gave a cold but delighted smile towards Mark.

"Now Gu Hui, Mark will be staying in the Ascension Academy. He is no longer your bodyguard but a proud student of our Academy. We don't care for noble titles in the Academy, everyone has the same status whether you're poor or rich. There is only talent in our Academy!" Carter coldly explained to Gu Hui.

Gu Hui face flashed red "Are you betraying our family Mark! Our Gu family won't tolerate traitors! You think I am a joke!!!" He started shouting and complaining.

"If you dare betray us! I will make sure your little sister suffers for all her filthy life! I'll make her serve me and my friends forever!" Gu Hui pointed at Mark while panting heavily.

Hearing his threat, Mark said "I am sorry Mr Carter. I...will have to reject your offer. I am only a bodyguard for the...young master" He said with a pained tone.

'This world is brutal. They blatantly threaten others with family and treat women like objects,' Xuan li thought to himself with disgust towards Gu Hui.

"That's right Mr Carter! Mark himself rejects your offer." Gu Hui proudly comments with his head up high.

Mark's head lowered down.

Carter glanced at Mark and sighed but gave a smile "So?"

"Wha- What do you mean so? He rejected me! You can't force him!" Gu Hui grumbled but was still cautious of Carter because of his strength.

"Mark, your sister will be fine. Sapphire, Please sort that problem" Carter spoke and glanced at Sapphire.

"Carter, you know we don't interfere with the student's life outside the Academy unless-"

"I know. So go make sure they can't touch his sister" Carter interrupted her and repeated his request coldly.

Sapphire sighed and teleported away.

"You! You dare try and interfere with the Gu family's property!" Hui remarked.

"Yep. Now, I kindly ask you to fuck off" Carter gave a big smile but his eyes were cold and full of malice.

Feeling the suffocating pressure from Carter, Gu Hui could only nod and back away towards the Labyrinth exit.

The other rejects hurriedly left as they felt Carter might lose his patience on them.

"Once again, Welcome to the Ascension Academy Mark." Carter reverted back to a more jolly and mature state and patted Mark's shoulder.

'That was so cool!' Xuan Li thought with wide eyes and a smile.
