Chapter 994 Principal Zack
It was like a dream as they were all watching the old legend being broken and the rise of a new legend. The ten Imperial Teachers and Vice Principal Jenna had already appeared a few meters in the air above the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase, and their expression was filled with myriad emotions.
Jenna was especially graved as she looked at the young devil encased in pitch-black mist, which seemed like a layer of tar. She knew from now on, no one would remember the First Mortal Emperor as a peerless existence, and Evie would be the most brilliant talent in the history of the Sky Heart Imperial School.
\'By hook or crook, I need to take her back to the imperial palace and make sure she will remain absolutely loyal to the imperial family. But if that old man appeared, he might get in my way. He\'s always been impartial and doesn\'t give anyone face.\' She thought grimly.
\'Crack…\'
Right at this moment, a sharp, cracking sound rang in the vicinity, drawing everyone\'s attention.
"T-t-t-that… the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase is cracking!" Someone exclaimed in horror.
Just as that panicked voice faded, everyone\'s attention instantly fell on the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase, and there were really cracks began to appear. They were spreading like an unstoppable storm.
"What is happening?!" Jenna\'s expression warped.
The Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase was an ancient treasure of unknown origin, and it was also one of the oldest treasures in the Imperial Family\'s hands. Since it didn\'t have attacking or defensive prowess, the First Mortal Emperor left it in the Sky Heart Imperial School to test the further generation, and it was also very helpful to temper one\'s will and heart.
However, now it suddenly begins to break, so Jenna naturally panics since it means there will no longer be any Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase in the future for the Imperial Family to temper their people.
"It served its purpose. There is no need to panic. Nothing lasts forever, and everything comes to an end." An aged voice rang at this moment.
Everyone looked at this voice and saw an old giant with a long beard and plane robes that had appeared right in front of Evie.
"Principal Zack!"
Jenna and the others\' expressions changed as they looked at the old giant; he was the legendary principal of the Sky Heart Imperial School and had always been very mysterious.
Even some of the Imperial Teachers hadn\'t seen Zack because he never appeared in public and had always been in seclusion. Not even Jenna or the Mortal Emperor could meet him as they pleased, and he never liked to take part in worldly affairs.
Yet, now, this legendary existence had shown itself for this girl.
At this moment, the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase suddenly shattered and turned into dust. Evie slowly hovered down as the pitch-black mist around her body began to dissipate.
Once she landed on the ground, the mist vanished, and Evie\'s beautiful stature appeared in everyone\'s view. She still looked the same, and nothing seemed to have changed, and her eyes were still as cold as ever.
"Stupid flag, how could to destroy that staircase?" Eva roared in her mind as she knew this was trouble, and she felt a powerful presence and looked up.
"Little devil, be more respectful to your elders. And it\'s not my fault. I formed that staircase to find a master, and now that I\'ve found one and entered your true soul, it can no longer exist.
"Don\'t worry though, I made it look like it breaks, and those ants can\'t see through me or you. Besides, if you want to escape, they can\'t stop you, so stop shouting!" The Heavenly Devil Soul Flag dismissively replied.
"But I don\'t want to escape! I have a mission!" Eva replied in indignation, as she was very displeased with this stupid flag.
Now, if they attacked her, she had to escape, and the cover would blow.
"Evie Gray Shadow, you have reached the 99th step of Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase, achieving an impossible feat since the birth of Mortal Sky Heart Empire."
Before anyone could speak, the old principal Zack said in a warm voice like an amiable elder as he landed a few meters away from Evie, and a smile was plastered on his usually stoic face.
Eva was startled as she looked at the old giant. She didn\'t think she would receive praise instead of blame.
\'He\'s strongest among all of these people here, but now I can handle him!\' She thought with a hint of confidence. She was only a hair away from reaching the pinnacle stage of the 8th tier, and with the Heavenly Devil Soul Flag, even Ace wouldn\'t be her match.
Still, she didn\'t turn hostile as she didn\'t want to show her prowess as long as she didn\'t have to. After all, she was a thief in disguise, and Ace also warned her not to show her prowess and alert the imperial clan, or their mission might be jeopardized.
"Thank you, Elder. I didn\'t know the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase would turn into this state. If I had known, I would\'ve stopped at the 98th step!" Eva pretended to be apologetic as she bowed in front of Zack.
Everyone\'s lips twitched as they found Evie\'s humble words somewhat offended. She sounded more like humblebragging not polite at all.
Zack couldn\'t help but smile in amusement, "No worries, the Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase was meant to test talents, and it served its purpose splendidly. If our school can get a genius like you in return, the price of Heaven Reaching Devil Staircase is nothing at all."
Suddenly, Zack\'s expression turned solemn, and he expectantly said, "Let me introduce myself; I\'m the 145th Principal of Sky Heart Imperial School, Zack Skylar. In my life, I\'ve never taken any disciple since no one was worthy, not even the scions of the imperial clan.
"I\'ve long lost hope, but then you appeared, and it seemed the heaven has not forsaken me and doesn\'t want my inheritance to vanish from this world. Tell me, are you willing to be my one and only disciple?"
Although his voice was mild, in everyone else ears, it was like a thunderclap!
Principal Zack, despite being from the Imperial Family, never gives them any face, not even the Mortal Emperor. Rumor has it that Zack was a genius who had created his own secret cultivation art that even the Mortal Emperor wanted to learn yet was rejected mercilessly. No one dared to do anything to Zack.
This showed just how astounding Zack\'s status was in the entire empire, and now he was accepting a disciple. If Evie accepted, her status would be as high as the crown prince or even higher!
