Chapter 386 - Secret Geniuses
On top of one of the mountains, where hundreds of spectators were gathered.
Even younger generation members came to watch, and once Deadly Beast arrived, they almost shat their pants!
They wondered whether this was the difference between Chosen Ones and them!
They would pass out in fear, but the Chosen Ones were fighting back!
Around a small table.
Sin was sitting alone while looking at the battlefield.
'Deadly Beast… What are you planning, Shinu?' He turned his head towards the main table, where Shinu was sitting with an innocent smile while surrounded by Grandmasters.
''Dad.'' Suddenly, a beautiful young woman appeared on the table.
''Suna, shouldn't you be preparing?'' Sin asked from Suna, who sat on the chair next to her.
''I have prepared long enough,'' Suna replied nonchalantly and opened her eyes to look at the battlefield.
''How is… He doing?'' She asked while her gaze was locked on the back of Ichiro's head.
''Well…'' Sin doesn't know what to answer. Ichiro hasn't been as good as he expected.
''Not good, eh?'' Suna smirked, ''Your impulsive decision wasn't correct this time.''
Sin rubbed his forehead and kept wondering was his choice wrong.
''When will Shinu tell them that current Chosen Ones are only mere Second Tier.'' Suna asked, ''They must be arrogantly thinking that they are Top Geniuses, having no idea that they are only appetizers.''
Sin rubbed his chin and shrugged, ''I don't know… Shinu has been acting weird. How are the other 9?''
''Sigh… Strong.'' Suna replied with narrowed eyes, ''Secret Geniuses… The top-level of the younger generation. Only the top geniuses are ranked in it, but only ten are allowed to enter, and 7 of them are completely unknown to the public.''
''Secret Geniuses…'' Sin murmured and thought it was strange.
For some reason, secret families with Top Bloodlines have been hiding their Top Geniuses, which was why another ranking list was created.
Secret Geniuses.
Only the top 10 of the greatest geniuses are ranked in it, and the top 1,2 and 3 from Global List Ranking are also part of Secret Geniuses!
But…
Their Ranks are 8,9 and 10 respectively.
There are 7 Geniuses stronger than them, and the public have no idea about it!
Suna is also part of Secret Geniuses, rank 6!
Her cousin that was Sin's other choice for the Test, is ranked 5th.
She thought that Ichiro being ranked ten was decent but far from the level of Secret Geniuses.
Only six of Chosen Ones are allowed to enter the last phases of the tests.
But, they have to fight against monsters called Secret Geniuses!
The reasons why they haven't been introduced yet to Chosen Ones are simple.
Pride.
Secret Genius's talent is simply too frightening, and many Chosen One might get discouraged.
That can't be allowed.
They need every genius to get stronger, stronger than ever before!
In the future, a war will happen, and it will decide the fate of the world.
Younger generation was needed to be flag carriers of Martial Artists!
The war between three sections.
Martial Artists Vs. Rankless Ones Vs. Mutated Beasts!
If Martial Artists win, the World will stay the same, where strong ones are at the top of the hierarchy.
If Rankless Ones win, the World will be in chaos with criminals ruling the world.
If Mutated Beasts win… The world will be doomed.
Humans will be exterminated.
Future looked hazy, but after seeing the birth of so many Geniuses, Shinu and other Grandmasters saw hope.
But, they need a leader.
Leader to show them the way!
Suna looked towards the Deadly Beast and looked disinterested, ''He will die.''
Sin bit his lip and looked at Ichiro, who wasn't moving an inch, while others were retreating.
It looked like he was afraid at first glance, but he had a feeling that it wasn't correct.
''Eh?'' Suna flinched and looked around the mountain, and the sight shocked her!
She saw nine other individuals sitting with their families. They looked ordinary at first, but she knew their identities.
All Secret Geniuses had gathered on top of the mountain to watch the test!
'I see…' Suna furrowed her brows, and a few Secret Geniuses nodded at her before turning their gazes back to the battlefield.
She felt pressured and knew that the chances of her being the leading figure were very slim, but winning would be extremely important to put her family at the top!
''Sigh…'' Suna shook her head and looked back to the battlefield, where Ichiro still hadn't moved!
''What a coward.'' She said with disgust, thinking that Ichiro was too afraid to move.
''Who is?'' But then, a lovely voice came behind her.
She frowned and turned her head. She saw four young women arriving at a nearby table, and the one who asked from her was a lovely young woman with black hair.
Her looks made even Suna slightly self-conscious.
''Him.'' She turned her head back to the battlefield, ''That black-haired dude is too afraid to move.''
''Why do you think he is afraid?'' Azura asked with an innocent smile while a murderous glance reflected from her lovely bright gem-like eyes.
''Isn't that obvious, he is about to die, yet he isn't moving an inch,'' Suna said it like it was apparent.
Azura looked toward her boyfriend, and seeing him not moving didn't make her fearful even after the fact that Deadly Beast was right in front of him!
Deadly Beast, who is as strong as Martial King, should be able to kill someone at Martial Commander rank with a single blow.
But Azura wasn't scared.
''Fool.'' She suddenly said, which caused both Suna and Sin to widen their eyes in shock.
''Who do you think you are?'' Suna asked with anger and clenched her tiny fist.
''Sorry, let me introduce myself.'' Azura bowed slightly and looked at Suna with zero respect, ''My name is Azura Nightside.''
Shinu raised his head and looked towards Azura with surprise.
As well rest of the Grandmasters, their faces showing their shock.
They had no idea that Abyss Nightside's daughter was there!
Suna widened her eyes in shock and said, ''Liar…''
''Am I?'' Azura asked innocently and pointed in the direction of the black-haired youth, ''Also… My boyfriend will win, just watch.''
''Hah, impossible!'' Suna snorted and was sure that Ichiro would die.
Even number 1 ranked in Secret Geniuses' rank can't defeat Martial King, but not sure about Deadly Beast.
Deadly Beast's attacks are more predictable, and their intelligence isn't matched with Martial Kings, which makes them slightly weaker.
But, their strength cannot be underestimated!
