Chapter 240 Keep going
"Your daughter is very strong, Lily," commented Gabriel as he observed Eleanor's lifeless body. Surprise reflected on his face, especially due to the young girl's final suicidal attack. Despite this, his eyes remained unwavering.
Lily's eyes, reddened by the increasing heat around her, fixated intensely on her younger daughter. Her fists clenched, and her eyes gleamed with pride. A broad smile formed on her lips. She was thrilled, feeling her blood boil at her daughter's display of determination. Around them, the dukes also felt the rising temperature, but it didn't bother them in the slightest.
Draven's red eyes, lost in deep thought, expressed his pride in his son's victory. However, he was surprised by Edward's last-millisecond reaction. The mini-sun created by Eleanor could have killed his son if he hadn't reacted in time, using the earth from the ground to shield himself and increase its thickness and durability. "What a powerful ability," he thought to himself.
Even Edward's physique had suffered damage, causing him to clench his fists. He remembered the moments when he himself had engaged in such battles with his classmates, especially with Athena, Gabriel, and Noah. Draven also paid close attention to the younger generation and was pleased with what he saw. He glanced at Athena, whose eyes also sparkled.@@@@
He recalled when his son had told him that Athena was training with two other students.
Athena mentally nodded, "Eleanor is very strong. I'll take her as my disciple," she thought to herself.

Emily calmly looked at the girl in front of her, drawing her sword calmly while her red eyes never stopped focusing on the girl with black hair and gray eyes.

Carefully, he removed them slowly, revealing healthy and smooth skin. He was completely healed, and he nodded satisfied with himself. It had taken him time, but he had finally managed to heal completely.
Cautiously, he surveyed his surroundings from atop a tree, where he was resting and treating his wounds with medicinal plants. He extended his senses but didn't detect any presence within a 50-meter radius from his position. He looked down, contemplating the height of the tree, which reached about 30 meters, and decided to descend. As he did, he created a slight crater in the ground beneath his feet.
With determination, he began to move towards the center of the island. He consulted the map and noticed that the size of the island had decreased, but he still intended to head to the center. However, he decided not to go there directly right away. Instead, he chose to stay in a nearby location and wait a few more days.
He knew that the center of the island would become a gathering point for all the students over time, making it a much more dangerous place to venture into too soon.

Anthony got up and started stretching calmly, showing a tranquil expression. He had spent all his time sleeping and was very satisfied with that. To him, it had been like a little vacation. He pulled out the map indifferently and noticed that the island was now smaller than before.

After a few minutes, he detected some presences approaching his location. He sighed, but was consoled by the thought that they would be easy to kill without making too much noise. With that certainty in mind, his body vanished into the darkness of the cave, leaving the place silent once again.
