503 Effect Of Luminary Spring [3]


The number of people in the Luminary Spring was extremely small now with the majority of them already left.


Most of them were Rank-S - and only Hiro and Zero were of Rank-A -.


Except for Hiro, everyone else was those who had advanced to the Quarter Final of the contest. The ones who got eliminated in the Quarter Final were given 4 pills except for Zero who got 7 pills.


Zero was cultivating and trying his best to get into Rank-S -. This was an ideal environment and if he was able to make use of it, he would be able to break through Rank-S - which would usually take him months and years.


Hiro was doing the same. Although he didn't think he would be able to advance to Rank-S -, he wanted to break through Rank-A + and get to the peak of Rank-A +.


It had been 1 hour since they had entered the Luminary Spring and it seemed like even those who had taken 4 pills had to leave the Luminary SPring.


As the hours passed within the Luminary Spring, the anticipation outside continued to build. The geniuses who had taken four pills were reaching their limits, and It seemed like they had to leave the Luminary Spring.


Finally, one Rank-S emerged and then another, until finally, the third and last Rank-S came out. Only three of them had gotten 4 pills as a reward.


These individuals had broken through Rank-S. Although it was just one sub-rank after one hour, one should know that it takes years to even advance one sub-rank after Rank-S -.


The onlooker can't help but feel just how powerful they had become, especially Aranic who could tell that their power had surpassed his own.


Previously, those three were weaker than him but now they all had become stronger than him.


Now, back at Luminary, only 5 individuals were left. Mia Frostine, Seraphine, Princess Elenia, Zero Elea, and Hiro Ernest were the only ones who were still there.


Hiro also took a pill soon after and had completely taken all his pills. While on the other hand, Zero had taken 3 pills in total and still had 4 pills left.


That meant that Zero could still stay inside Luminary Spring for another hour and maybe even more.


On the other hand, it was the last chance for Hiro to break through and if he can't break through after this then he will miss the opportunity.


But, it seemed like his hard work was finally going to be paid off as he felt like breaking through at the last moment. He could feel the power surging within him, and the barriers holding him back were starting to crumble. With every ounce of his willpower, he pushed himself to the limits.


"I-I did it!"


Hiro muttered in excitement. He was able to break through to Rank-A + which was a great feat. He never thought that he would be able to break through 2 sub-rank in one day.


However, he didn't waste time by being happy and continued to train further until the effect of the pill wore off.


While Hiro had managed to break through to the peak of Rank-A +, Zero was on the cusp of reaching Rank-S -. In any case, unlike Hiro, Zero still had time and he had to break through to a major rank, unlike Hiro. Soon enough, it seemed like the effect of Hiro's last pill had worn off and it was time to leave. He looked around for a second and saw Zero. He could sense that Zero was at Rank-A +.


( Is he going for Rank-S -? )


Hiro thought and the answer was obvious. Still, it was hard to believe that someone at the age of Zero was trying to break through to Rank-S - when even breaking through to Rank-A was considered very rare.


Anyway, Hiro didn't have time to stare and had to quickly leave the Luminary Spring.


Hiro exited the Luminary Spring and almost everyone was staring at him. Whether it be jealousy, awe, or anger, they all stared at Hiro with mixed emotions.


Many felt unfair because Hiro wasn't even in the Quarter Final but still got more pills than the quarter finalists.


Others felt awe as they could sense that Hiro had broken through 2 sub-rank and was approaching the Rank-S -. Considering Hiro's age, everyone knew how incredible this feat was. He could even be considered the strongest in his age group. Maybe no one under age 20 could beat him or so they thought.


But then they remembered someone who was even more monstrous than Hiro who was still inside Luminary Spring. They couldn't help but think of how powerful Zero would be when he came out of the Luminary Spring.


"Hiro, you are out! And you have become Rank-A +. Congratulations!"


Sylvia said excitedly. "Thanks! You have also become powerful! I can't wait to see just how much power we have gained!"


Hiro replied. He was happy to see that his companions had all reached Rank-A. Although an incredible feat, Hiro wasn't very surprised. Knowing their talent, Hiro already expected them to make such progress.


"Humph! Hiro, don't think you are going to win easily like before! It's going to be different now."


Zion said. Although there was still a rank difference between him and Hiro, it was on a much smaller scale than when he was Rank-B and Hiro was Rank-A.


"Sure! I would like to see that!"


Hiro answered. He was curious to see his own improvement and also Zions. He could see that Zion wasn't that far from Rank-A + and if given more time, he might just have broken through.


In any case, fighting with each other will be the best way to find out about their own and their companions' new profound strengths.


Only one other person got 5 pills and that was Amelia. She was also a Quarter Finalist but she got one more pill extra than the others.


She had broken through to Rank-S + which was a very big achievement considering that it was very hard to improve when one is at Rank-S. Most people would have the same result despite having twice as much time as Amelia. This just goes to prove just how powerful the Saintess really is. The title wasn't just for show and Amelia had to go through a lot to get to where she is.


"Amelia, you become super powerful!"


Sylvia said in awe. Now that she was in Rank-A, her senses were better and she could tell to a certain extent how powerful Rank-S people were.


"Thank you, Sylvia! I see that you have also become stronger."


Amelia replied.


"Heheā€¦ Thanks!"


They conversed with each other as they waited for the remaining people to come out. Another 30 minutes passed when Princess Elenia and Stoneclaw emerged from the Luminary Spring. StoneClaw was Rank-S - when they entered but they had advanced to Rank-S after having gone into Luminary Spring.


Princess Elenia had broken through to Rank-S +.


Although they only broke through one sub-rank despite being in there for 1 and a half hours, the improvement they had was definitely bigger than those other Rank-S. With two of them out, only three people were inside Luminary Spring.


Everybody patiently waited for them. Princess Elenia was also curious about just how powerful Mia and Zero would be after they came out.


After Amelia came out, another 20 minutes passed. Everybody thought that Zero would be coming out but he didn't. They were even discussing whether he was forcing himself to stay inside. "What is taking Zero so long?"


Misha was very worried. Although Luminary Spring was a great place, it was also very dangerous if one didn't have the special pills.


"Maybe he has a very tough body. Anyways, don't worry, Zero isn't stupid enough to risk his life for Luminary Spring. He will eventually come out!"


Amelia reassured Misha. Knowing Zero's full power, Amelia was stronger than many thought.


Another 10 minutes passed and there was still no sign of Zero. But then someone shows a sign of coming out of Luminary Spring and many thought it must be Zero.


However, rather than Zero, it was Seraphine who came out. While other people were astonished by Seraphine who had progressed to the peak of Rank-S +, Hiro's group and Amelia were now worried about Zero.


Even the one who had 8 pills has come out, so where was the person who only 7 pills gone to?
