The Battle Queen They Blindly Kicked Out (Joanna) novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Glory on Screen, Chains in Shadow

Clearing dungeons and securing resources. Those were the mainstream, the lifeblood of the news cycle.

Reporters swarmed the four young women, their faces flushed with an excitement they could barely contain.

“An Epic-tier university sent us admission notices! Arcadia University! I can’t believe it! A professor even wrote us personal comments!”

Voidstar University was a Legendary-tier institution, a mythic name whispered across the galaxy. Across the entire United Galactic Alliance, there were only 985 such academies.

Arcadia University was an Epic-tier school, a step below Legendary but still incredibly exclusive, with only 2,211 across the galaxies.

Epic-tier universities were obviously designed for S-rank Talents.

Compared to that, Violetlight was merely Silver-tier, and Prismbridge was just Gold-tier, with Diamond-tier schools standing above them.

For the members of Roseflare to be accepted by Arcadia was nothing short of a meteoric leap.

Hands trembling, the girls read the evaluation aloud.

“Your team demonstrates unity, empathy, and heightened perception. Upon entering the instance, you identified your shortcomings and fought relentlessly to overcome them.

“When placed at a disadvantage, you analyzed, innovated, and transformed scrap into strength.

“In moments of crisis, you remained calm, steady, and relentless.

“Your aptitude for wilderness exploration and survival aligns perfectly with Arcadia’s core ethos.

“Choose Arcadia, and let us explore the cosmos together.”

Tears streamed freely down their faces.

Outside the screen, Rhoda smiled, a genuine one this time. She was happy for her teammates. Yet behind that smile, her eyes glistened with something firmer.

“I’ll

get into an Epic-tier university too. Next year. I will make it.”

Roseflare emerged as a dark horse, stunning everyone. But they weren’t the only team to walk

with glory.

There was also Katherine’s group.

Though her team had ultimately been eliminated, once Katherine secured a slot in the Divine and Demonic Training Program, she immediately took her teammates grinding. With fewer competitors left in the later stages and an abundance of creatures, their elimination count far exceeded the passing score of 60.

Combined with their survival points, every member received an invitation from Voidstar University, complete with personalized remarks.

“Your initial choice showed selfless spirit. Fighting side-by-side in extreme conditions revealed a rare fortitude, and you battled tenaciously until the very end. Voidstar welcomes you. Today, you take pride in Voistar. Tomorrow, Voidstar will take pride in you.”

It was praise.

And high praise at that.

However, there was a subtle layer of calculation beneath this.

Katherine was their teammate. Once she entered the Divine and Demonic Training Program, she might be eliminated, but the process itself would unlock her potential, sending her combat ability skyrocketing.

A month later, if she washed out, she’d still apply to universities. By then, Katherine’s worth wouldn’t be that of a mere SS-rank talent. She’d likely surpass even ordinary SSS-rank individuals.

If her teammates were already at Voidstar, Katherine would almost certainly apply there too. Thus, Voidstar would secure a future powerhouse.

Some celebrated. Others suffered.

Grayfog Star.

Inside the prison complex.

Twenty hours had passed. As Joanna vanished from the screens, Lucas and the others felt a hollow emptiness settle in their chests.

Joanna had truly taken flight.

Her follower count was skyrocketing, surpassing five million in the blink of an eye.

Every candidate from her cohort followed her. Over 100 planes watching the SAT now knew her name.

A prodigy was on the rise.

And them?

The former teammates of that prodigy. Now, convicts.

“Damn it, this is all on you,” Cedric snarled, punching Kayden square in the face. The already- swollen features ballooned further. “If it weren’t for you, I’d be in the Divine and Demonic Training Program right now.”
