A tall man with grey hair entered the portal.

He wore the violet robes of a Bolt and regarded Shang with a resolute and hostile gaze.

This man was Jerald's son, named after the Dean of the Warrior Academy, George.

Shang had encountered George only twice before.

The first meeting occurred when Shang emerged from seclusion to converse with Jerald, and the second took place during the grand warriors' tournament.

During their initial encounter, George had not been Shang's adversary. The second meeting transpired after Shang had already killed Jerald.

A Peak Mage Lord.

It seemed almost unbelievable that the young man Shang had previously encountered had already attained such a high level of power.

Yet, it made logical sense.

Perhaps he had reached the Ancestral Mage Realm at around 500 years of age, and if he had only focused on comprehending two level four Concepts, he would have become a Mage Lord by approximately 2,500 or 3,000 years of age.

As long as he prioritized advancing his level over the Concepts and dedicated himself entirely to this goal, he could undoubtedly reach the Peak Mage Lord Realm within a thousand years or so.

However, he was likely an average Mage Lord.

Nevertheless, even an average Mage Lord possessed a twofold Spirit Sense, granting them talent on par with powerful Ancestral Mages.

After George stepped through the portal, it promptly sealed behind him.

For a few moments, he locked eyes with Shang, his gaze narrowed.

"Do you still remember me?" he asked, his voice filled with darkness.

"George," Shang acknowledged. "Jerald's son."

George's aura grew stronger as his anger intensified. He remained uncertain whether he desired Shang to recognize him or not.

"Do you have any idea how much I have suffered just to obtain this opportunity?" George's voice trembled as he spoke.

Shang remained silent.
