Multi-Gene

A sense of satisfaction flooded his entire being and a satisfactory growl rumbled from his chest.

At the exact same time David's mind retreated to the back. Just like giving up the controls in the drivers seat, switching places to stay in the passenger's seat.

It was as though he was watching now watching a scene as the beast took control.

His tired expression instantly flip like a switch. Now having an expression of freedom and that of monstrosity.

But in just a few seconds the best took over, it felt its mind being pressured by something incredibly heavy, making it unable to move a single muscle!

Noticing something was with the situation, its struggled and David's leg which was about halfway to the tenth stairs descended downwards until it was only an inch away from the tenth step.

Angered, he was about to roar in rage but it was then the full pressure of the stairs descended on it's mind, instantly knocking it out.

But David didn't take control. Instead, he voiced out in his head. "You can come out to."

The vampire personality had noticed there was something wrong with the situation but David rarely let them out ever since he had found away to suppress them.

Even if it might be a trap, getting outside was a luxury it couldn't think of or waste. Immediately, it burst into action, going forwards to control the body.

At first, happiness and a sense of freedom flickered in its mind, reflecting on David's face. But everything changed in the blink of an eye as a massive pressure that was twice the size of a mountain descended in its mind.

"What is this!?" It's roared in its mind, struggling against the massive pressure weighing down on it. Its resistance seem to be a little higher than the werewolf personality.

Outside the Carp leaping Stairway, David's foot could be seen descending slowly down towards the tenth step, making the audiences hold their breathe in fierce anticipation.

Will he actually succeed? Or will he fail just like the others before him had down. The spectating servants couldn't help but wonder as this scene took place.

Meanwhile, the Head Servant had a huge change of expression as she watched as David's foot slowly descended onto the platform.

She didn't expect David to have gotten this far since he was only an Initial Mortal Stage small fry, he will fail the trial horribly and would come back to the servant's block as at that time, he would have no option but be at her absolute mercy and she planned to use him thoroughly, teaching him the true meaning of submission.

But her lust hadn't cover her reasoning and she made a backup plan. But even then, swing David almost successfully pass the trial made her heart skip a beat.

As David's leg was just a centimetre away from the tenth step, he saw that his body had stopped moving. Shocked, he didn't know what was happening and at that same time, the vampire personality was knocked out, going to a deep sleep just like the werewolf personality.

David's eyes widened and he took over his body, trying to push on, but that one centimetre proved to be way harder than hell freezing over. It was then David noticed something.

And he strenuously glanced backwards. Behind him, Lu Sheng was looking straight at him from the eight step with a smirk on his face.

"Where do you think you're going?" although he didn't say anything as it was extremely taxing to the mind to voice out words, he formed those words with his mouth and David knew what he was saying.

The spectating servants were surprised as they whispered amongst themselves. "Is that even allowed?"

"What a pity, this guy might have pissed off Lu Sheng In the past, resulting in this type of situation."

Looking downwards, David saw Lu Sheng holding on to his hand, preventing him from making that step.

"What do you think you are doing!?"

Blinding rage overtook David's mind and his eyes turned crimson with blood spilled out from his nose, signs of his mind being taxed to the extreme and if he doesn't rest, his mind could start to crack until it broke, turning him into a vegetative state.

Willing his hand, the black eye that was on his hand like a black eye erupted all over his finger. He had released some of the destructive wave which automatically transmitted to Lu Sheng's hand.

BANG!

Lu Sheng's hand instantly turned into a mush of flesh and blood. Not minding the commotion, David took the final step and in an instant, a blinding pillar of light erupted form with the stairway, meaning someone had successfully passed the trail.

As soon as the pressure was lifted off his mind, David immediately fell to the ground, his eyes rolled backwards and he fell unconscious. Not knowing the huge amount of ruckus he had created in the trial.

The old man who was in charge of the trial had appeared before him at an unknown period of time. It could be that his speed was fast or maybe he knew David would pass the trial.

• * * * *

Currently, David was lying quietly in the medical ward, peacefully resting on the bed just like a sleeping kitten.

It had been a long time his face was this peaceful when he sleep due to his body's restlessness.

After an unknown period of time, his eyes flew open and he gazed at his surroundings with his eyes. It was then the previous event came to him.

His gaze turned sharp as he remembered what had happened. "Was it worth it?" Hazel asked him.

David pondered, upon this very words before waving it off. He could feel his brain waves had improved by quite a lot and the Formless energy he was able to exact to the physical world had grown even stronger.

Closing his eyes, he then noticed that he had somehow unknowingly gotten to the mid mortal stage. A smile appeared on his lips as he finally had an answer to her words. "It was pretty much worth it."

"How many days have I been out?" David asked while sitting up.

"Not much, you've been out for a week. This time, you're extremely lucky your mind didn't fragment. I suggest you don't over task your brain next time as that might prove detrimental to your mental health instead." Hazel warned sternly.

David nodded his head as he felt the seriousness in her voice. He too turned solemn as he replied. "Don't worry, I wouldn't risk doing that next time."

He knew the only reason he had passed the trial was because hd had shared the burden with the two other personality otherwise he would have failed the mission.

He then recollected that blue eyes young man that had held him back in the last minute. His eyes turned cold.

Just erupting his hands wasn't enough to quell David's anger. He wasn't a petty someone but in cases like what had happened back then, he'd rather chose to be petty and get back at the person multiple fold to satiate his anger.

"You are awake." An hoarse voice interrupted his thought and David looked sideways to see a young man standing not too far away from the door. It was unknown when he had gotten there.

"I don't have time to waste, stand up and follow me." The young man rudely said and started to walk away.

Dodging from the fact that David couldn't feel the young man's brain wave, he knew that the young man was either at the Late mortal stage or probably the perfect Mortal Stage. Either way, he was obviously stronger.

David gazed at the retreating figure of the rude young man and his eyes squinted. In the next second, the wind stirred and David appeared before the young in a split second.

"W-what!?" The young man Immediately staggered backwards and then his flying blade swished through the air, forming some sort of shield to block him self from David's view.

Wiping out the cold sweat forming in his head, the young man was about to shout in anger when he felt someone coming from behind him.

Unsure, he gazed back only to find David working towards him from within the ward. Shocked, he glanced back forwards, retracting his shield but then, he wasn't able to find the David that was standing before him previously.

"Y-you!"

"Is something the matter." His expression was that of pure innocence as David asked.

The confused young man had no choice but to swallow his word as fear unknowingly creeped into his mind. "N-nothing. Ahem, lets head to the students affair hall, you would need somethings since you are just became a new student." The young man managed to overcome his fear as he told David.

David smirked inwardly at the young man. He had to teach him a slight lesson since he was rude anyway. And now, he was now officially a student of this academy.
