Chapter 9: Prime Tyrion Lives On A Mountain
Chapter 9: Prime Tyrion Lives On A Mountain
The students eagerly rushed towards the direction of their new place, shown in their Neon-watch, their jittery voices resonating excitedly in discussions.
Furthermore, this was their first time truly entering the academy and they were like village bumpkins seeing the city for the very first time.
The instant the students caught sight of the inner academy, their breathing shortened and a magnificent sight appeared before them.
This entire academy seemed endless and was as massive as an entire city. Gigantic mountains towering over to the skies as well as massive buildings a few thousand meters pierced through the skies like world-holding pillars.
There were even sky bridges interlinking the skies as various connecting vehicles moved on them. As though that wasn't enough, the place was surrounded by trees, large gigantic trees some of which were more massive and more robust than some of the buildings.
Just at the distant far end center of the academy, a peculiar mountainous structure shot viciously into the clouds its peak seemingly reaching space as it was shrouded by endless clouds and and shimmering energy waves.
Evidently, the building seems to be a very important part of the University.
The students were in awe as they felt waves of thick and condensed energy radiating off the building even from that distance. It was then they realized the clouds surrounding the tall structure weren't actually real clouds but extremely condensed DUST that covered the peak of the building, shrouding the skies.
They could feel their cell chains lossen and their cell activation levels increasing bit by bit the closer they were to the center of that peculiar structure.
"Dust Facility." One of the students muttered in disbelief while the others immediately gasped as they realized what the building was.
Dust, a special type of particle when exposed to the cells through special methods and conditions, strengthens it and even unlocks hidden inmate Traits within the genes.
Now, an ordinary human exposed to too much 'dust' would cause death which is why one has to first tamper their cells with it, activating their body to its true potential before attempting to accumulate 'dust'.
Seeing a Dust Array Facility shocked the students because it was just too expensive to buy one!
They walked for about thirty minutes straight and then they soon arrived at a particularly large expanse of land with thousands of houses inside.
The houses in this region aren't as tall as compared to the ones they had previously seen, standing at a few hundred meters in height but it was manageable to some degree.
It was worth noting that the thousands of houses in the area spiraled around a particularly tall and large mountain about 500 Meters high and a few kilometers wide. It was like an entire new world up there.
After a few glances and observations, quite a few students were able to notice the air seemed to contain even more 'dust' particles, emitted from that particular building. It was a mini 'Dust' array encompassing the entire mountain!
Those who reside in the building with close proximity to the Dust Array would enjoy bathing in 'dust' daily. Their gene-lock would lossen considerably and their cell activation would undoubtedly increase without even practicing.
Imagine if one practice, half their effort would yield twice the result!
Seeing this, the thousands of students immediately got excited but didn't dare to reveal their excitement, keeping it a secret as they eyed the first building.
"This mountain is mine!"
Wade was the first to move. He didn't waste any time more time and instantly shot towards the mountain. His speed was fast and not many were able to catch up to him.
"BAM!"
He had placed half a foot on the mountain when a transparent barrier appeared and he collided with it, rebounding backward with a bleeding nose and ashen face.
"Prime students only, please step back."
A robotic voice echoed throughout the field.
The other students quieted down when they saw this.
After which, their expression darkened as they turned towards the Prime student of their set - Tyrion.
Under the jealousy and hatred-filled gaze of everyone, Tyrion calmly walked towards the mountain.
A foot in,
Two steps,
Three steps,
There was no deterrence.
"This isn't fair!" Someone couldn't help but cry out loud. Tyrion was always the last at everything, combat, weapon studies, meta-beast knowledge, and fighting tactics. He had never surpassed the last.
In fact, they had expected him to die to the mouth of a beast but instead had been lucky, three times at that.
Holding onto his bleeding nose, Wade's eyes glowed with hatred. Lucia narrowed her eyes while Seraph huffed and puffed with intense anger. They had no idea this was the special treatment a Prime would receive otherwise, they would have fought Tyrion to the death.
Alicia turned towards the building and she sped towards the one nearest to mountian.
After which, Seraph and Wade shot off with similar blinding speed. Another twenty of thirty students also followed in their footsteps, confusing the students who were clueless as to what was happening.
But those that had survived up to this point weren't stupid people therefore it took just a few seconds for them to figure out the real situation. The mountain possesses a dust array facility. Therefore, the building closest to it gets to benefit from it.
The closest building to benefit most is house 1 and the person who gets to reside in house 1 gets to make the most out of it, improving their cell activation level even further. How could they not be tempted by this? Thus, chaos ensued.

Up up, in the mountain, it was a whole new world up there.
He could see large buildings almost as large as mansions stationed about a few kilometers from each other. The larger ones seem to be occupied and there was only a small housing one at the corner of the mountain.
Checking his watch, he was directed into that same house.
The inside of the building wasn't particularly pretty with cobwebs and dust covering every inch and corner of the apartment. But it was ten times more beautiful than the houses he had ever lived in and strangely very tall. For one, there was power running the entire building, and judging by the lack of noise, the walls are soundproofed also.
There was even a roughly created training room that had enough space to contain ten giants.
Remembering that he was now officially a student, Tyrion's lips curved upwards to a smile as he muttered 'Finally'.
There shouldn't have been any hope for him to pass the entrance examination but he not only passed, he successfully became the Prime student!
It was like a dream come true. Soon Tyrion's face turned solemn and he immediately checked his status. Things had changed.
