The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 1511: Leaving Planet Blue Jade

Having exited the Dark Space, Klaus resolved to prolong his stay on Planet Blue Jade, with the express purpose of engaging in a conversation with the Jade Queen.

With her previous endeavor to take Klaus as a disciple having failed, fostering an alternative form of connection would prove mutually advantageous. Klaus, a rapidly ascending figure, would inevitably require havens for refuge during critical junctures.

Based on his observations of Planet Blue Jade, he was certain of his safety, even if confronted by Celestials, assuming he could reach this sanctuary.

Therefore, he ensured the establishment of this vital link.

He also dedicated some moments to Princess Evren. As a disciple of the academy, their paths were destined to cross within its hallowed grounds.

Klaus ascertained that the 64 academies scattered across the Human Universe were poised to conduct a tournament, the objective being to crown the foremost academy and its most exceptional disciples. While she was resolute in her participation, she also expressed a strong desire for Klaus to be involved.

She stated her intention to train rigorously, ascend to demigod status, and secure a position in the main event, competing for a coveted spot on the Rising Dragon List.

Evidently, triumphing in the tournament merely marked the commencement of a grander journey.

Achieving victory in the tournament, or securing a position within the top 32, granted the privilege of contending in the Rising Dragon Tournament. This prestigious competition aimed to identify the preeminent young warriors throughout the entirety of the Human Universe.

This ranking served as a benchmark for identifying the most formidable combatants in the Human Universe and dictated the level of attention they warranted, especially given the imminent opening of the Ancient Battlefield for exploration.

Klaus remained uninformed about the Grand Aides' machinations within the Heavens Court, and frankly, the tournaments and rankings held little sway over his concerns. In his estimation, he far surpassed the majority of the Human Universe's most accomplished talents.

Nevertheless, he acknowledged the existence of certain individuals who commanded his cautious attention. Thus, deeming it discourteous to decline, he accepted her proposal and resolved to enlist when the opportune moment arrived.

Following his interactions with her, he contacted Lord Flux, informing him of his successful acquisition of the desired treasure. He further instructed him to apprise the second Supreme of his intention to visit them upon his arrival at the academy.

Supreme Engineer Winnie, the esteemed head of the Engineering Department at the Milky Way Warrior Academy, represented an opportunity. Since his destination was the academy, he saw merit in meeting her personally and exploring the potential for collaboration.

Klaus had already resolved to delve into engineering, recalling his ninth incarnation's legacy as a legendary engineer.

His objective was to leverage the academy's resources to forge formidable armaments. He keenly understood the immense value of such creations and could not afford to neglect this facet of his capabilities.

By mastering the art of weapon construction, generating substantial wealth would become a considerably simpler feat.

This would, in turn, facilitate the further expansion of his diverse investments.

Consequently, after ensuring all arrangements were finalized, they departed. Klaus parted ways with Rory and the others, as his immediate destination was the academy.

Queen Jade instructed Lord Emerald to escort Rory and the rest back to Planet Stella, while Klaus charted a course for Planet Biomat, the academy's home world.

Rory was slated to return to Planet Caelmir upon their arrival back at Planet Stella, alleviating any concerns Klaus might have held for her. As for Slate, Omen, and Echo, they were to resume their rigorous training, dedicating themselves to achieving demigod status.

Their recent association with Klaus had profoundly shifted their perspectives. They now understood that if they successfully mastered the techniques he imparted, attaining demigodhood would be a remarkably straightforward endeavor.

Naturally, Klaus, fully cognizant of their latent potential, pledged to include them in his future endeavors should new missions arise, with the stipulation that they must first achieve the rank of demigod.

And so, they returned to their dedicated training.

Two days later, Planet Biomat materialized within view.

Based on its sheer magnitude, Klaus inferred its size to be no less than 50 times that of Earth. It lacked any surrounding rings, yet he observed a shimmering, translucent shield enveloping it, possessing sufficient strength to withstand a full-force assault from a Celestial without alerting anyone on the planet.

"The more I witness, the more inspired I become for Earth's future." Klaus mused, acutely aware that Earth would soon attract unwelcome attention, and the onus fell upon him to ensure no entity dared to tamper with it.

His strategy involved guaranteeing the protection of all surrounding planets as well. This layered defense would ensure that any encroaching dangers were neutralized by the multiple safeguards he intended to implement long before they posed a threat to Earth.

"I shall never permit Earth and its inhabitants to endure peril." With a profound sigh, he watched the colossal planet draw nearer.

As he approached within approximately four million miles, a voice resonated from within his spacecraft.

"Identify yourself, unknown vessel."

"It seems they are unaware of my identity, given this is my inaugural arrival."

Klaus let out another sigh and responded, "Greetings, my name is Klaus Hanson. I am here to register."

"Klaus Hanson, your enrollment in the academy is not reflected in our records. Kindly provide further details to authenticate your identity."

A grin spread across Klaus's face, acknowledging their request was perfectly reasonable. "I was recommended for enrollment. However, you are welcome to inform whoever is in charge that the Renegade Hunter has arrived to register at the academy."

Silence followed the mention of Klaus's hunter moniker. Nevertheless, after a few moments, a small aperture materialized within the energy barrier, and the voice resumed.

"My apologies for the inquiry, Renegade Hunter. Please proceed through the designated passage. You will be directed to Flight Deck BA446FT, where a representative will be awaiting your arrival."

"Thank you, senior, and no need for apologies. In my view, maintaining robust security is paramount in all facets of existence." Klaus possessed a disposition that favored maintaining amicable associations with everyone he encountered.

This approach ensured that, irrespective of the unfolding circumstances, there would be individuals upon whom he could rely for support.

While spoiled heirs might have berated the guard for perceived tardiness, Klaus exhibited commendable patience. This demonstrated his character, and though he couldn't see it, he surmised the guard was now smiling.

Icon expertly guided the vessel towards the designated passage, and in a brief span, they emerged on the far side of the formidable shield.

The ship swiftly pierced through the cloud cover, commencing its descent towards the predetermined destination. With the ship's navigational system locked onto the coordinates, the flight was now entirely automated.

Even from mid-air, Klaus marveled at the breathtaking panorama of the planet, adorned with numerous edifices and an expansive network of infrastructure that unmistakably signified prosperity and dominance.

The ambient Spiritual Qi here was demonstrably more potent than that found on Planet Blue Jade.

Klaus surmised that a sophisticated planetary formation enveloped the entire world, diligently purifying the ambient Spiritual Qi and thereby facilitating effortless absorption by the students.

"The Spiritual Qi on Earth is already abundant, but if I could implement this formation there, even newborns could attain the strength of Saints."

A contemplative smile graced his lips as he envisioned the remarkable advancements he would introduce to Earth. After all, his intention was to establish his future family there, and he was resolute in making it the most secure haven in the universe.

Mere minutes later, his landing on the designated deck was met by the presence of a young lady anticipating his arrival.

"Welcome to the Milky Way Academy, Renegade Hunter..."
