Please be sure you put on earplugs before entry. This is for your own good.

Happy learning!

Atticus and Kael both gazed at this text displayed boldly for all to see at the side of the wall.

It was simply impossible to miss because, apart from the fact that the words were glowing brightly, there was a huge directional symbol also glowing on the door they were supposed to enter, the symbol pointing straight at the words that were being displayed by the side of the wall.

'What the hell...' Atticus wondered.

From the name of the course, it was plenty obvious that the class was all about combat. Why the hell would they need earplugs? And why were they making it so flashy!?

The hallway was completely empty, with only Atticus and Kael being the remaining students that hadn't entered the class.

Atticus decided to take the warning seriously and picked up the pair of earplugs that were orderly arranged on a table just below the sign.

Kael also picked up a pair of earplugs, and both of them put them on, covering their ears.

And then, with a scan, the both of them entered the room.

They were both met with the sight of an expansive room.

The room was… nothing.

There was simply nothing inside the room. It was simply a very large space, with completely white walls, floors, and ceiling.

There was white everywhere.

'The human domain must have a thing with pristine white,' Atticus thought.

It was just like the room Atticus was always transferred to from his division or exactly how the advanced training room back at the estate had been.

Atticus saw many of the students all standing separately from each other. None of them had forgotten that each of the people in this were all potential enemies.

They could face any one of them in their next division battle. Nothing was certain, and they were all keeping their guards up.

Many focused on Atticus and Kael as they walked and stood in a random spot.

Especially the tiered youths who were all still slightly alert at the thought of both of them joining hands together.

Each of them waited in silence for a few minutes, and as soon as the clock struck 12 PM, the door of the room suddenly slid open without warning, and from the other side, a figure walked into the room.

The word "humongous" would be an understatement if one were to describe the man who just walked in.

All eyes were focused on him, and upon seeing the man's distinctive features, everything immediately made sense.

Many initially wondered why they would need earplugs for a class. They were supposed to listen in class, so why encourage them to block their ears?

The man who entered had vibrant orange hair, a radiant gem embedded into his forehead, and an excited, huge grin on his face – Jared Stellaris.

Many of the students stiffened, immediately bracing themselves for the worst.

"It just had to be a Stellaris," many of the students grumbled.

If Seraphin Stellaris was this hyper and loud at 15, none of them could even begin to imagine how intense this man would be.

Atticus, standing beside Kael, narrowed his eyes slightly as he saw their supposed teacher was from the Stellaris. He hadn't had that much interaction with the family, but even he had heard about how hyper and loud they were.

What sealed the deal was that he was also there when Seraphin had spoken before their first strategy class.

'I'm not taking any chances,' Atticus decided. After leveling up his bloodline elements to level 3, he became able to use them intricately to an extent.

The same way he had used it when he was trying to make his voice louder while addressing his division members, Atticus manipulated the air element to form a thin barrier around his form and Kael, who was beside him, intending to block anything too loud.

Kael immediately noticed the barrier. Turning his gaze towards Atticus he nodded with an expressionless face, expressing his thanks.

Atticus also turned to see some of the tier ones already deploying countermeasures as soon as they saw the man.

Harmonic, whose ears were way larger than normal, wore an extremely irritated expression while looking at Jared.

Regardless of age, having a Resonara and Stellaris in the same room was nothing but trouble.

He hadn't needed earplugs because, apart from his ears being too large for the small size of the earplugs, he also had his artifact.

While he always had it on, he hadn't really been utilizing its features. Harmonic placed his palm on his head, channeling mana into it. And it instantly lit up with a blue glow.

Trying to be safer than sorry, he went a little extra. The air around him seemed to distort as he manipulated the sound waves around him, gaining full control over them.

The rest of the tier ones also got into action. Metal coalesced around the massive figure of Eldric's ears.

Aislan's ears deformed and morphed, with the once normal-

looking ear disappearing under his skin.

Vines snaked their way across Lila's form, gathering around her ears, forming some kind of protective barrier.

Zoey remained unmoved and silent. It might have seemed like she hadn't done anything to prepare herself, but only the keenest of eyes could have caught on to what she had done.

The only one who hadn't made an attempt to do anything and, unlike the rest, had an excited grin on his face was Seraphin. He was clearly happy about the current development.

Some of the students, of course, the uninformed ones, had thought it weird that they would need to wear earplugs and hadn't seen any reason to.

Those fools hadn't even bothered to pick up the earplugs from outside.

And immediately they saw the distinct features of the Stellaris family, they all froze.

Atticus had absolutely made the right decision because, in the next instant, Jared, who had been walking towards the students, grinned even wider, his eyes flashing as he settled on a particular white-haired boy standing by the side.

"Yes!" Jared's exclamation echoed like thunder.
