"But from the way the principal talked about them… her wary tone. I could tell they're not just any ordinary Fifth Stage Core Masters."
Christian stayed silent, letting her words sink in.
Ordinary Fifth Stage Core Masters, huh?
He found himself stuck on that term.
Ordinary or not, wouldn't it still only take a single thought from someone at that level to kill him?
And the principal… she was already at the Sixth Stage.
Just how many years would it take for him to grind his way up to that level?
Christian let out a quiet breath and shook his head.
He gave no comment on Olivia's casual tone when speaking of stages of power… levels that both he and even she would likely need hundreds of years to reach.
She seemed to have her sights set awfully high…
But did she not realize? The time required to reach the next stage increased drastically with every step forward.
He had taken nearly six months just to reach the First Stage.
