The two hours of today''s ss ended, but Alice still hadn''te out of her test, so they had to be patient and wait a little longer.


    And so 35 minutes passed until Alice was finally able toe out.


    When she came out, she looked radiant. Her face was brimming with joy, and she quickly looked around for Matt, who was standing next to her.


    "Matt, I did it!" Her overflowing happiness brought a smile to Matt''s face, who was very happy for her.


    "Well, it''s just what we''ve been waiting for." He said and looked straight ahead.


    Professor Robert had just received the spirit report and was in awe.


    He couldn''t help but stand up in front of everyone.


    "I did not expect to have two great talents here, and although you have all made great progress that I would like to congratte you on, this time, I think we have to congratte Zen and Aelia even more.


    They have joined the exalted group of people who have achieved 30 minutes in each of their tests, and they did it in a very short time, breaking all records in these tests." Robert didn''t know how to congratte them, but he believed he had already done so to some extent.


    After all, in those rooms, only the two of them had them in the ssroom, and he was the one who got them for them.


    But he still wanted to exalt them among all the students; at least that''s what they deserved, and then maybe they could earn more distinction if he managed to teach them well.


    But when he said that, all the students were astonished and turned to look at Matt and Alice.


    "30 minutes in all tests in less than 1 week? I remember thest one to aplish something like that was one of the members of the Alignment, and it took him almost a month..."


    "Have they really aplished something like that in such a short time?"


    "Unbelievable..."


    Many people murmured among themselves and came up to congratte them.


    There were more men than women in the room, so before long, Alice was surrounded, but Matt was not far behind.


    Still, Will Jones was the first person to stand out among them all.


    He understood the difficulty of reaching 30 minutes because he was close topleting the four events with 20 minutes. That is why he developed a deep admiration for Alice.


    With Matt, he only felt some kind of rivalry, almost lost, because he was already sure that he could not catch up or surpass him in this aspect. But with Alice, the admiration became a little too much liking.


    "Miss Aelia, congrattions. You are truly worthy of praise and someone I admire for your dedication to these testing days. I still have a long way to go topare myself to you." With his words, people moved a little to the side, and Matt, who was surrounded by some girls who were congratting him, turned to look.


    Alice looked at him and smiled elegantly. "Mr. Will Jones, don''t be so modest. Clearly, you are close topleting all the tests as well. We all improve at a different rate, and I''m sure in the future, you, too, will be able to do what I did in due time." Her manner of speaking and hermand of words amazed Will Jones.


    He had not expected this girl, who at first looked somonce in several respects, to be so polite and so correct in her speech.


    She even looked like a nobleman.


    ''Not only is she beautiful, she''s even so modest and well-mannered... She''s my ideal woman!'' thought Will Jones, smiling broadly.


    "Thank you very much, Miss Aelia. Then I will endeavor toplete these tests as soon as possible; at least then, I can get you a little closer to your achievement." At the end of that, he smiled and bowed a little.


    "Miss Aelia, actually tonight at the Weing Ceremony, there will also be a Dancing Ceremony, in which you are required to go as a couple. I was wondering if you could apany me. I may not be good at this, but I am very good at dancing in this kind of setting."


    When these words came out of his mouth, several were surprised. Although they all expected it when they saw him approach, it still left them surprised.


    There are not many summoning couples in the Spiritual Academy, but there are pretty powerful ones, and they grow stronger the longer they are together. Therefore, seeing what could be the birth of a couple between two such talented people was something worth seeing.


    As that happened, Matt frowned after hearing this.


    He felt fury inside him for a moment, and a dangerous power crossed his gaze, but a different voice brought him out of his thoughts.


    "Young Zen Master, I think Miss Aelia is truly worthy of praise and I will go and congratte her, but I feel you are even more worthy. You came so close topleting all four tests on the same day that every time I think about it, it makes me want to go over to congratte you.


    So I hope you will ept my congrattions this time." Janna Patel, the other person in the blue clothes, approached Matt to tell him this.


    Matt looked at her and nodded, diverting attention from what was happening on the other side. When this voice came through, everyone wanted to see what would happen.


    Alice turned sharply when she heard these wordse out.


    Janna Patel was a pretty woman of the human race, plus she is a woman in her early 30s who has carved out a career for herself within the trading industry. Somehow or other, this girl was worth looking at.


    "Thank you very much, Miss Patel. Congrattions to you as well." Unlike Alice, who had extensive teaching experience in the world''s nobility and high society, Matt was more straightforward.


    He also didn''t need to keep up appearances like Alice. He just needed to be himself; hence, his manner of speaking was not like Alice''s.


    Still, Janna Patel saw this manner as admirable: ''Straight to the point and unadorned with words, but polite. No matter how you look at it, he''s not just anyone. His power must be amazing,'' she thought and smiled at him.


    "Young Zen Master, thank you very much. Since I don''t like to beat around the bush, would you like to join me tonight at the ball? Actually, I''m not asking you toe with me. It''s fine if you dance just one song with me, the rest I can leave to your chosen partner."


    Even Matt was surprised by her words. Unlike Will Jones, who approached Alice with the pure interest of them both going to the dance together with more hidden intentions, she didn''t care about that. It was fine with her if Matt went with someone else, but she wanted to dance to a song with him.


    ''She''s trying to make friends, different from that guy...'' He thought.


    Still, as he nned to respond, he felt something grab him by his clothes.


    "Zen, are you done with your business? We should get back to getting ready." Unnoticed by Matt, Alice came up behind him and shot a totally defiant look at Janna Patel.


    No, her look was not defiant. In fact, Janna Patel, for a moment, was startled when she felt that look so cold and deadly,ing from someone so young. She felt as if a massive scythe of death was at her neck, ready to murder her...


    ''...This girl...'' Janna Patel couldn''t even find words to say anything in the face of such a cold stare full of frantic thoughts.
