Eternal Thief-Chapter 1024 Sky Abyss Secret Realm (3)

Ten Imperial Teachers and 22 Imperial Students were gathered on the first floor of the Principal Tower.

In front of them was the masked Vice Principal Jenna, and besides her, four more youths, but since they were standing beside her, their status was clearly much higher than those personal disciples of the Imperial Teachers.

They were Crown Prince Carlos, Second Prince Darren, and two masked women with graceful figures wearing veils; they were Riana and Evie!

Ace, impersonating Leroy, was standing behind Conner with an impassive expression. He had just arrived and seeing all these people he wasn't impressed. Instead, he could feel many eyes on him. Even some imperial teachers had secretly used their senses to observe him.

But Ace didn't care about them as he glanced at Evie, and a hint of joy was present in his eyes. Evie's eyes also fell over him at this moment, and her lips rose slightly behind her veil.

"Found you. You didn't come to find me in this month? Were you messing around with other girls?" Eva's playful voice rang in his head.

"Tsk, I was busy pleasing my 'Master'." Ace replied wryly.

While they were talking secretly, Jenna impassively spoke, "Welcome, everyone; you are all the elites of our empire and its future. That's why, to support you all, the Imperial Palace has opened its secret realm for you all. I hope you all work hard for the empire's prosperity.

"Now, I know all of you are proud, but I must warn you first about the Sky Abyss Secret Realm. Although the Sky Abyss Secret Realm is a huge opportunity, it isn't entirely safe. In the past, there were always some casualties, and even the members of the Imperial Clan had fallen.

"So, I must ask you for one final time if you're willing to enter despite all the dangers. Remember, once you're inside, no one will be there to protect you. Life and death will be in your own hands.

"That's why if anyone wants to back down, now is your chance!" She coldly declared as she sharply swept over those Imperial Students.

But none of them showed any sign of backing down. They were all elites among elites, and they knew the Sky Abyss Secret Realm was a huge opportunity to rise in the empire. So, how could they miss it?

Not only that, but they all belonged to a prince faction, and they knew they had to follow their leaders. They were already alerted by secret messages like Ace, so they were ready.

Jenna nodded with a hint of satisfaction before she waved her slender hand, and beside her, a large runic circle appeared, "Alright, everyone, step inside this teleportation circle; it will bring us into the imperial palace. You may bid farewell to your teachers."

"I'll be going, master. Take care." Leroy stated.

"Take good care, and don't forget to use those treasures I gave you if your life falls into danger. Opportunities are good, but your life is more important." Conner solemnly advised.

Ace could tell Conner was worried about him, and he felt slightly warm in his heart as Conner had treated him well and even given him some life-preserving treasures. He knew this might be their last meeting, so he felt somewhat sad and guilty.

He thanked him one last time before he stood in the teleportation circle with everyone else.

Jenna then activated a crystal formation plate, and the next moment, they all vanished from the Principal Tower in a flash.

"Did I see worry in your eyes, Death Striker? Don't tell me you've gone soft?" Heavy Thunder Sword suddenly said jeeringly.

Conner pulled a long face before he sneered, "I guess you're right. After all, my disciple didn't go around getting kidnapped. Tsk, tsk, you really have some shitting scheming ability. I would've never let you off for destroying the lightning mountain if it were me."

Heavy Thunder Sword's expression suddenly warped as Conner directly struck his sore nerve, and his eyes almost spit lightning, "You dare to slender me!"

Conner merely sneered as his aura shot up.

"Alright, you two are not children. Let's hope everyone returns safe and sound." A devil imperial teacher chimed in with a wry smile.

While the Imperial Teachers were talking, they didn't notice the Old Giant standing on the staircase with a peculiar expression on his wizened face; he was none other than Principal Zack.

'Why was Evie looking at Conner's Disciple? Did they know each other, or was it just my imagination?' Zack thoughtfully looked at the empty teleportation circle before he vanished without a trace.

Jenna, with the Imperial Students, appeared within the grand teleportation hall of the Imperial Palace.

There were two imperial guards in golden armor standing there waiting for them. The moment Jenna appeared, they kneeled down.

"Greetings, Your Imperial Majesty!"

Except for Imperial Princes and two women beside Jenna, the imperial students were bewildered when they heard the greeting as they looked at Jenna.

Jenna didn't pay any heed to those shocked Imperial Students and asked coldly, "Rise. Is everything ready?"

"Yes, His Majesty is waiting for Your Majesty's arrival." One of them solemnly replied.

She nodded and commanded, "Lead the way."

The imperial guards didn't tarry and quickly began to lead them towards the gathering place.

On the other hand, Ace was closely observing the Imperial Palace through his fate map; he was suddenly astounded when he saw that the dark golden compass pointer, which had been static all this time, had suddenly moved towards the west.

'Could it be this time this compass pointer is pointing me in the direction of Ascension Temple, or is there something here at the same level of the Elemental Orb?' Ace's mind reeled as he wanted to track down the location.

But he knew now wasn't the time, and for some reason, his thief's sense couldn't cover the underground of the Imperial Palace, and even the fate map was showing a black area below the Imperial Palace, which could only mean that under the imperial palace was an absolute dead zone for him.

This discovery was enough to alert Ace, and he was glad that he didn't recklessly barge into this place.

Soon, they were all led to a luxurious grand hall, where more people were waiting for them, and they were all giants. The Imperial Guards didn't enter; only the imperial students were allowed entry.

Among these giants was a giant in crimson imperial robes, giving off a majestic and suffocating aura. He was none other than the Mortal Emperor of the Mortal Sky Heart Empire, Antonio Skylar.

Beside Antonio was a masked giant woman with a peerless figure wearing soft body armor. Her face was covered in a white mask, and only her sharp eyes were visible; she was none other than the Imperial Princess, Sofia Skylar!

Behind them were eight more youths of the Skylar Clan, including the other two princes. They were all going to enter the Sky Abyss Secret Realm!
