Samuel Chalmers had long noticed that his body always shared an odd sort of harmony with Scarlett Jennings.
He knew it was the lingering influence of the Vein Soul, but he inexplicably didn’t reject this feeling.
Scarlett didn’t hide it either and directly spoke her mind.
"Considering the situations with Zaback and Cassidy, the demon energy tainted by corruption usually affects things during emotional fluctuations, especially during fights. The more demonic power is used, the deeper the corruption of the demon energy."
She said,
"To make the students of the Academy of Mystique willingly expose their demonic power, we could directly hold a combat selection competition within the academy."
Just like the internal selection held by the Sea City Taoist Academy before the last academy competition.
"In the past annual academy competitions, the Academy of Mystique also organized the Spritelife Group to participate. In the upcoming Xuanmen Grand Competition, the Mystic Regulation Office could also have representatives from the Spritelife Group participate.
Coincidentally, this year is the triennial Xuanmen Grand Competition, so holding an internal combat selection early wouldn’t arouse much suspicion."
Scarlett was already aware that during the last academy competition, because Cassian Wolf spontaneously decided, the participants from the Spritelife Group, except for Callum Yuan, were randomly drawn by lot. That wasn’t the true strength of the Demon Clan.
The difference between the Xuanmen Grand Competition and the academy competition is that the Xuanmen Grand Competition is open to the entire Mystical Sect, and naturally, the Demon Clan as well.
In this circumstance, an internal selection becomes very necessary.
And as long as there’s a reasonable occasion to act, Scarlett can let them unleash all their latent demonic power.
Upon hearing her idea, Cassian Wolf merely raised an eyebrow, then looked at Samuel Chalmers,
"I have no objections, it depends on the master’s decision."
Unsurprisingly, Samuel Chalmers had no objections.
Thus, the matter was decided, and as the Dean of the Academy of Mystique and the other Demon Masters had just undergone a round of restructuring, they couldn’t come up with any objections to this internal selection at this time.
With a single command from Samuel Chalmers, the entire Academy of Mystique immediately began preparations.
During the preparation period, Scarlett didn’t forget to show concern for the previously brought-back Cassidy.
Previously, because of a word from Scarlett, the little bear cub Mingji and that grandaunt from the Mystic Regulation Office were forcibly required to compensate double for all losses.
The bear grandma, this grandaunt, though high in rank within the Bear Clan, couldn’t surpass other Demons of the Demon Clan, and faced with the Mystic Regulation Office, she dared not show the previously cocky attitude and compensated quietly with the little demon grandson in tow.
As for the little demon grandson, after almost being killed this time, whether he had become well-behaved is another story. But when he saw Cassidy again, he completely calmed down.
After proving that she hadn’t colluded with the Evil Demons, Cassidy was soon picked up by her parents to go home. Before they left, the two of them specifically sought out Scarlett,
"Master Scarlett, is our Edith alright now? Will the black demon energy you mentioned appear again?"
The Mystic Regulation Office hadn’t announced the tainted demon energy issue publicly, but Cassidy’s parents and Cassidy, the person involved, already knew what was going on, naturally worrying about the chances of today’s sudden berserk situation happening again.
Scarlett only said,
"The corruption on her demon energy has been cleansed by my companion, so there’s no need to worry about it happening again."
She paused, then added, "However, her berserk state was actually caused by overextending her demonic power, so she needs gradual recovery of her demonic power, no rushing."
Listening to Scarlett, Cassidy nodded. Scarlett was quite a celebrity within the Academy of Mystique. Though she had only heard of her before, after this interaction, she felt she had found another idol besides her brother.
Though a Pureblood Demon, she wasn’t one of those prejudiced Demons who despised Half-Demons.
For her, her liking for someone was based purely on personal charm, not breed.
At this point, Cassidy suddenly seemed to recall something,
"By the way, I don’t know how exactly I got caught, but I think you could investigate my brother’s rival, Noah Zimmerman."
