Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

From Berry he knew about the grand movement in the academy and big clans, looking for anything related to the teams exposed at the last battle of the Spar Arena. From there, new leads started to show up, and a deeper and grander net began to show itself in front of them.

These dudes wouldn't let such a golden chance slip off their hands and decided to follow the new leads and keep hitting the dark spirit masters where it truly hurt.

Just in the past day alone, they managed to find and kill around twenty different groups of dark spirit masters around the academy and clans.

Such a big harvest at the start of this operation made others who were reluctant to join excited to step in. And this escalated the move, even to the extent that clans far away from here started to send envoys, asking to share the acquired intel with them.

That number of casualties was going to increase during the upcoming days, weeks, and even months.

William could see where this was going to end. With each group taken down, more evidence and clues would be found at their locations, exposing more hidden dark spirit masters.

William realised now how truly big this entire battle was, even growing to the scale enough to call it a war.

"It's just pure coincidence," William said as he couldn't stop the smile on his face, "I just selected such a mission without knowing any of that."

"That's great then," Berry seemed to not listen to his words at all, "we can go and ask for support from the academy, even from my clan…"

"No," but unlike what she expected, and in the middle of her excited words, William stopped her, "let them do their things, and let us do ours."

"This…"

"I'm glad they are going to act against the dark spirit masters at last, and on such a huge scale. However… We have another goal to achieve."

"Testing our team? We can still do it with their help…"

"No, they'll still interfere with our business," William didn't tell her about his true intentions from going there.

Of course, he wanted to test his team, but that wasn't the true reason behind him selecting going there, towards that far away location.

He wanted to do other things, and if the academy and clans were working with him, then his actions would be closely monitored.

He didn't need anything from anyone, but worried about anyone interfering in his plans for any reason.

For example, the headmaster or Kong might act if they heard about his intentions, out of fear of their granddaughters. He wanted to finish dealing with establishing his team, away from any interference of any kind, secure a path towards the capital and recruit more free spirit masters from there to expand his team.

"Ok," Berry felt that William wasn't telling her everything, and his stance was already clear about such a proposal, "when are we going to move? Tomorrow?"

"That's the plan," William paused before adding, "you learnt the three techniques, right?"

"Just the initial stage," she felt like she disappointed him, "sorry but since that attack and I didn't get enough time to train."

"It's enough," William nodded, "now go back and resume training. We'll meet here at noon."

"Ok," William saw her out, then returned back to do his stuff.

First, he made a meal and ate it, before finally closing the door on himself in the study room.

There he got all of the scrolls available in the two study rooms and started working on them till the late hour at night.

"This will suffice, I hope," he looked at what he did and felt a little satisfaction towards it, "it's not the best work of mine, but these arrays and scrolls will be enough to deal with any dark spirit masters, provided that they didn't send a dark gold rank to deal with us."

William stored everything inside the black ring he got from the merchant, got to his room, and enjoyed eight hours of sleep.

During the night, the disciples at the academy were all getting hyped by the news about William's team. Even if most of them didn't get any invitation formally from any of the four William entrusted with the job, they learnt about when and where the meeting of the team would happen.

From the early hours in the morning, many started to go towards the main gate of the academy, waiting for William to come.

William woke up just one hour before noon, took his time to eat his breakfast, check on the girls, and revise the content of his rings fast before Berry's arrival.

"Where is everyone?" Berry asked, before she suddenly thought of something, "I didn't see Tina or Lina for days… Are they alright?"

"They are doing something for me outside," William made sure to leave behind enough materials to activate the array around the house. He left behind clear instructions on the table next to the materials, explaining how the girls would use these and where to bury these materials to activate the array.

He didn't know for how long he'd stay away from here. And who knew what might happen. Many things started to change compared to his past life thanks to his actions, and so he wasn't sure if the academy would remain safe or not.

That array was just a precaution against unforeseen events. "Let's go," after giving her a vague answer about the two sisters, he moved outside and closed the door, "others shall be waiting for us at the main gate."

"Ah, is that where we are going to meet everyone?" Berry said in realisation, "that explains why many were heading towards there in the past few hours."

"Many?"

"Yes, many are going there, most probably waiting for you to arrive."

"Hmm… Did they invite that many or what?" William didn't mind the presence of a large number of spirit masters. He'd just select from those who got invited by Sara, Lang, Peter, and John.
