Unlike the humiliation of the youth from the Dark Continent, the high priest felt that this was a good thing.

The high priest coughed lightly and said, “Everyone has come from afar. The journey must have been tiring. We have already prepared rooms. You can take a rest first. We will bring you to our church another day.”

Mike smiled and bowed to the high priest, “Okay.”

The high priest and Mike looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.

Mike and the others were brought to their residence. The high priest pointed to a row of wooden houses and said, “I’m sorry. For the time being, there are only simple rooms for you.”

Mike waved his hand and said, “I think this is pretty good. After all, we are here to study, not to enjoy ourselves.”

As Mike spoke, he looked at the dissatisfied Higher Darkness Realm heirs behind him. At the same time, a touch of sadness rose in his heart.

The country was clearly about to be destroyed, but some people just did not feel anything!

The high priest also glanced at the group of people and said, “In that case, I’ll take my people back first. Take this portal. It can be used to contact the teacher in charge of your affairs. Today, the teacher had something important to do, so he did not come. Please forgive me.”

Mike exchanged a few more words with the high priest before she left.

Mike glanced at the number of wooden houses in the back row and found that it was the same as the number of people who came here. He turned around and said in a clear voice, “Everyone, go and choose your wooden houses now.”

A group of Higher Darkness Realm heirs raised their heads and rushed towards the wooden houses. Behind them were the nobles, and finally, the genius youths from the academy.

Mike saw that the youths were still practicing the class system, and he felt very sad and disappointed.

Anger rose in Mike’s heart. He roared angrily, “All of you, stop!”

Everyone stopped. Those who wanted to leave stood on the courtyard wall, quietly waiting to see what would happen next.

Mike looked at this group of people and said, “I suddenly changed my mind. I’ve decided. The strongest will pick first, and the weakest will pick last.”

Almost everyone frowned when they heard this.

The butler walked over and said to Mike, “Mike, this seems a little inappropriate.”

Mike glanced at the butler and said, “What’s inappropriate? Look at them. They don’t look like they’re here to study. I think if I don’t interfere, they’ll start messing around here!”

Mike pointed at a few houses and said, “Butler, Tariq, the Adjutant of the Dark Lord, Elena, and Elinda, the five of you go and pick first! Who is upset? Stand out and challenge the four of them first!”

The field was suddenly silent. Everyone was like a mute, not daring to make a sound, afraid that they would be the first to stand out.

Mike looked at them and said, “Who wants to be the first to pick? Come out!”

A Higher Darkness Realm heir lazily stood out. His name was Shawk. Mike sized him up and found that his strength was only considered to be below average among the hundreds of youths, the only thing that he could be considered outstanding was that he was the Queen’s son, and his status was the highest among these youths.

The youth said lazily, “I’m going to pick first. Anybody who disagrees?”

Mike glanced around and found that no one dared to challenge Shawk.

Mike said, “Ha, so you came here to do such a shameful thing. Now I add one more rule. If no one challenges him, then I will pick a person to challenge him every minute, until I know this youth’s true ranking.”

Shawk was shocked and angry. He pointed at Mike and scolded angrily, “You slave, my father only promised my sister to you, and you think you have climbed up a high branch to teach me how to do things? Who do you think you are?”

Elinda, who was already choosing a house, frowned and instantly appeared in front of Shawk, giving him a hard slap on the face.

Shawk’s vision instantly turned white. He was about to say something when he saw Mike standing in front of him. The next second, he felt as if he was facing a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Fear gushed out from his heart and engulfed him in an instant, he only felt a heat in his crotch and then he could not control himself.

The wall wound let out a burst of laughter. Everyone was laughing at the prince who peed his pants.

However, when Mike’s eyes swept over them, they could not laugh anymore.

Mike looked at the group of people behind him and said, “Who’s coming? I’ll count to ten!”

Mike sighed softly. He knew that today, a few people were destined to be eliminated. He had already made up his mind. Even if someone died, he could not back down today.

“I’ll do it.” A faint and firm voice sounded from the side. Mike looked at the person who spoke, and his eyes finally lit up.

Mike nodded and said, “Okay, let’s start now.”

Three minutes later, Shawk was on the ground. Meanwhile, the young woman’s body was full of burn marks, and his coarse clothes had a thousand holes on them. The young woman looked at her clothes, and tears were about to flow down her face.

Mike took out a cape and draped it over the young woman’s shoulder.

He looked at the young woman and asked, “Tell me, what is your name?”

The young woman said nervously,

“My, My Name is Eve.”

Mike’s gaze slowly moved down and landed on the longsword in Eve’s hand.

Mike swore that it was definitely not a longsword, it was just an iron bar.

Eve had used this thing to defeat Shawk, who was fully equipped with high-level equipment.

Mike looked at Eve and said: “Sure, go pick a house. If anyone comes looking for trouble in the future, come and find me. I will let them know what pain is.”

Shawk looked up at Mike and said, “You, what right do you have to do this? You are just a peasant, how dare you!”

Shawk seemed to have regained his strength. He stood up and glared at Mike, as if he was standing at the top of the world.

Mike looked at Shaw and said, “Your Highness, I want to correct you on a few points. First, I am not a peasant. I am the Lord of the Dragon Castle. If you were to classify me according to the standard of nobility, I am also a noble conferred by His Majesty, the Dark Lord. What is my position again? I forgot, but I don’t think I am a peasant like you said. Second, I am the captain of the Higher Darkness Realm foreign students. I am in charge of all matters, big and small. If you are not satisfied, you can cross the prairie and return to the Dark Lord and complain to him. Third, I want to tell all of you...”

Mike looked at the people in front of him and continued, “I don’t care about other times and places, but during the study abroad period, there is no difference between nobles and commoners. There is only the size of a fist. The strong will have priority, and the weak will take a back seat.”

Everyone looked at Mike in shock.. They all had incredulous expressions.
