As Scarlett Jennings and her group’s plane landed safely, the four teams of students officially welcomed the final review of the third match of the academy competition.

Upon arriving at the venue, Scarlett Jennings noticed that the audience today was unusually large.

Besides the students from the local academy, there were also many students from other academies, including those from Sea City.

Apart from them, there were also some people from external Mystical Sect organizations.

Evidently, they had all come specifically for this final review.

"Look over there, that’s the Sea City squad, they all look so young in person."

"They are young, three of them are freshmen."

"Don’t underestimate the freshmen. Their path is steadier than ours. The footage released earlier by the Security Bureau almost made me cry."

"So many living corpses—just watching the video scared me to death. They’re incredible."

Despite being fellow freshmen, many present felt that they might not have reached the same level as Scarlett and her group under similar circumstances.

However, this didn’t stop them from admiring these few people.

"I declare that from today onward, Scarlett Jennings and Gregory Xander are my idols."

said a freshman.

Someone next to her immediately retorted,

"Hey... wasn’t your idol Elysia Xander before?"

"Don’t bring her up, being her fan is the darkest history of my life."

The surrounding chit-chat was incessant, but it didn’t prevent these words from reaching their ears.

Once Scarlett Jennings and her group entered Lloyd Village, all connections, including their Image Keeping Talismans, were abruptly cut off. At first, no one was clear about what exactly had happened there.

However, after the Security Bureau took over the affairs of Lloyd Village, the talismans from them were retrieved.

As its name implies, an Image Keeping Talisman is meant to keep images. Although the connection was broken, its purpose was still intact.

The Security Bureau thoroughly reviewed the content of the talismans and decided to release some footage from within Lloyd Village after considering it comprehensively.

This served not only to acknowledge the efforts of Scarlett Jennings and the others while trapped in the village but also to show the Mystical Sect people the threats these hidden evil cultivators pose to the sects and the Mortal Realm.

The reason so many were present today was largely because they had seen the video and specially came to witness the Sea City squad in person.

Scarlett Jennings met the eager gazes around her with calmness, having often been surrounded during her previous variety show performances.

And besides, those audiences were even larger than today’s.

Ashton Todd and Stella Gibson, however, were experiencing such attention for the first time. Yet they weren’t at all fazed, cheerfully waving to the crowd from the back of the group.

While Gregory Xander and Evan Anson didn’t go as far as these enthusiastic two, they still maintained poise and sincerity.

Among the group of six, only Nathan White seemed overwhelmed by the attention, lowering his head more and more, and swiftly following behind Scarlett Jennings.

They had just taken their seats when Violet Allen from North City immediately abandoned her teammates and came over.

"You’re all okay, right? I watched your talisman recording over the past few days, and it was terrifying. If it had been me, I might have been scared to death on the spot."

Imagining the scenes then, Scarlett Jennings and her team weren’t particularly surprised.

Seeing that everyone’s spirits were still high, Violet Allen felt slightly relieved.

She knew that for many, experiencing such a scene for the first time, especially after seeing so many people fall victim to a Forbidden Technique of an Evil Master, might take a long time to process.

But seeing Scarlett Jennings and the others react so calmly, it was clear that they hadn’t been left psychologically scarred.

However, she still leaned in mysteriously to share some gossip she had gathered over the past few days.

"Did you know? After investigating Lloyd Village, the Security Bureau found that its inhabitants weren’t innocent either."

"Why do you think so many girls were abducted without anyone alerting the authorities?"

"Because several households in that village were the ones helping the traffickers!"
