Just call me Thor

Kaelum brought some "explosive" news, and Mike put on a "very interested" look.

There was no helping it; Thor was just too legendary.

It was hard not to be interested in him.

After the initial excitement, Cain quickly asked, "Why Area C?"

Logically, the summer camp had many areas.

The SS-grade talent training camp didn't need to come straight to Area C.

There had to be a reason behind this.

"You should ask our Mike about that."

Kaelum smiled and shook his head, "You might not know, but Mike's name has already spread among many seniors."

"Oh?"

Cain was intrigued, and Kaelum didn't keep him in suspense, "Mike first made a name for himself by defeating Ethan with a D-grade talent. Then he led Area C to victory over Area A, winning half of their resources..."

At the end, Kaelum chuckled bitterly and shrugged, "But that's not the most important part. The most important thing is, in the previous combat test, Mike beat me."

Mike beating Kaelum.

It sounded light, almost insignificant.

But in their generation, Kaelum, with his SS-grade talent, was already among the top!

At just 21 years old, he had reached the 30th floor of the Tower of Truth!

What a terrifying speed!

He was ranked in the top fifty on the Slaughter Stele!

Remember, the rescue team for Professor Gregory was handpicked from countless candidates, and only eight were chosen!

Each of these eight was a genius, a rising star with immense potential! Experience the journey at m-vl-em-py-r

Kaelum's performance made many strong individuals believe he would become a Lord.

He might even become a nine-tier Lord, reaching the same level as Joseph!

An uncle who is a Lord and a nephew who is also a Lord—what a great honor for a family!

And Mike, with his mere D-grade talent, managed to win against Kaelum in the combat test, which was nothing short of a miracle!

Such a performance drew a lot of attention to Mike. Many instructors had asked Kaelum about the battle process.

Kaelum had shared everything without holding back.

Souvenirs made from Vortexarchon's ashes were available in the Mystic Market, and they weren't expensive.

Mainly because their usage level was too low, and the effect duration was too short.

Mike used this item, and through various "coincidences," managed to turn the tables.

Although in terms of raw strength, Mike was definitely not as strong as Kaelum,

his intelligence and cunning were unanimously recognized!

Nowadays, Mike had a nickname, no longer "Brute" but... the "Cunning One of Area C."

Mike shook his head at his nickname.

This was pure slander, completely mismatched with his character.

Mike was upright and honest, with no connection to cunning!

The three of them had breakfast first, then went to the training hall to meet up with others, waiting for the geniuses from the SS-grade talent training camp to arrive.

Most people wore expressions of excitement and anticipation.

Only Mike occasionally yawned, showing little interest in the upcoming Thor.

However, Mike was curious to see what this "fake Thor" was all about.

No doubt, it had something to do with Shadow Nine.

"They're here!"

The waiting crowd in the training hall perked up, seeing a group of people approaching.

Kaelum whispered, "The most beautiful woman there is the rumored Thor!"

Everyone: ???

Mike was stunned. Since when did Thor become a woman?!

How did he not know this!

Following Kaelum's direction, Mike quickly spotted the "rumored Thor."

To be fair, she was indeed beautiful and had an outstanding aura.

Mike looked at her, and a prompt appeared before his eyes:

[Shadow Two, Bad Woman, Lv.1]

Something seemed off. Mike looked down at the "fake Thor's" shadow.

[Shadow Two, Bad Man, Lv.989]

So that's how it was...

Shadow Nine and the others had indeed created a decoy for Thor to draw attention.

But the bait in the trap wasn't just anyone; it was Shadow Two!

This wasn't bait; it was a shark that could eat people!

Based on Mike's experience, within the Guardian Shadow, aside from the special rankings of "Shadow Nine" and "Shadow Seven," the smaller the number, the stronger the individual!

Anyone ranked in the top three of the Guardian Shadow was a powerhouse!

Anyone attempting to ambush Shadow Two would end up in despair!

Maxen had privately commented,

If not for certain limitations, the top three in the Guardian Shadow could all potentially challenge the Ultimate Lord!

Clearly, the so-called "certain limitations" referred to Shadow Nine!

Amari had also told Mike that the top three in the Guardian Shadow actually included four individuals.

Among them, Shadow Two was split into two.

With this understanding, everything made sense.

Mike continued to stare at Shadow Two, the legendary [Bad Woman] and [Bad Man] duo.

[A mysterious powerhouse, their combined level is 990, which can be distributed freely, with a minimum of 1 level]

[Their voice... is their twisted sense of humor, their true gender matches their appearance]

[Your gaze has already alerted her/him]

[They are coming]

As the crowd cautiously observed "Thor," the other side clearly noticed their gazes.

The elegant woman, the rumored "Thor," walked towards Mike and the others.

When she spoke, her deep male voice made everyone's hearts sink.

"Kid, what are you looking at?"

That voice... more manly than a man's!

At that moment, Mike understood why she was called Bad Woman.

Such a charming woman, ruined by her voice!

It's so bad!

In Bad Woman's ear, a feminine voice whispered, only audible to her.

"Thor is among them... wait, Shadow Nine has spoken."

Shadow Nine following Thor was a well-known secret within the Guardian Shadow.

But with their strength, unless Shadow Nine actively revealed himself, it was hard to detect him.

In terms of mastery over the [Shadow element], Shadow Nine surpassed everyone.

Hearing Shadow Nine's words, Bad Woman replied in her mind, "What did Shadow Nine say?"

Bad Man repeated, "Shadow Nine told you to get lost and stop disgusting him."

"Oh, and Shadow Nine said your performance bonus for this month is deducted, mine is doubled, and I'll cancel all your Mystic Market orders..."

Ignoring the latter part, Bad Woman smiled sweetly.

She spoke, still in her deep male voice,

"Alright, I'll get lost."
