Concealed in the shadows, Jacob meticulously rearranged his garments, tucking every bit of fabric into the darkness. With a casual lift of his eyebrow, he thought. My dear girl, your martial arts skills are truly impressive.
It was worth risking everything to sneak into the archives of various sects and uncover the most exquisite secrets for her to practice.
Marcus couldn't help but stretch his back again and thought, Jacob, how many techniques have you taught her? You're putting in the effort, aren't you?
Yet, beneath it all, Marcus felt a flicker of excitement.
What an impressive student she is, truly remarkable!
Just the thought of this extraordinary young girl on the competition stage, who even referred to him as a teacher, filled him with joy.
Despite the situation, Marcus kept a serious look on his face.
He was about to confront Owen Manning from the Silverpeak Sect.
"Oh, Owen! It's been a while-still kicking, I see?"
Marcus flashed a smile that crinkled his face, offering a "warm" welcome.
Regardless of how youthful they appeared, they were all elderly individuals nearing a century.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Each encounter meant one less chance to see each other again.
Who knows, the next time they cross paths, one could be standing while the other might be laid to rest.
"Yeah, what a coincidence.
"We're both still kicking-pretty impressive! Another day survived!"
Owen appeared to smile, but deep down, he interpreted Marcus's comment as a challenge, feeling the sword at his waist itching to be drawn.
Marcus caught on to this but kept his smile intact.
He continued to jest, "Owen, there's no need to brandish your sword like that.
"The Stonecliff Tourism Board has put up notices.
"Since the country was established, using swords to fly is banned.
"Anyone who breaks this rule will face a fine of 250,"
Marcus' teasing comments only served to irritate Owen from the Silverpeak Sect even more. He bluntly remarked, "I've heard that the Melody competing out there is your grandson Jacob's disciple. Does the Ironspire Sect take in female students too? 1/2

"Since the country was established, men and women have been treated equally. If you want to take her in, that's fine, but how did she come to learn the techniques of my Silverpeak Sect? "What? Do you think martial arts can just mix like juice?"
Elders from the Elysian Sect chimed in, clearly annoyed, "Exactly! How did she pick up our Elysian techniques? She doesn't even resemble a little nun!"
Everyone was aware that the Elysian Sect was a sacred place.
It even held the status of a national prestige tourist attraction, where disciples trained in internal and external practices and were required to possess at least a bachelor's degree. However, now everything was being managed more systematically.
They were instructed to limit their sword usage, reduce their flying across rooftops and walls, and avoid jumping off mountains to practice agility, as it might frighten the tourists. Marcus felt irritated by this.
He was just about to unsheathe his sword in frustration.
Disagreements and brawls were typical among the elders, who were quick-tempered and often opted for physical fights instead of discussing things verbally.
As a result, the other two also readied their weapons.
The mood in the air quickly turned tense.
However, just moments later, a man wearing a tourism board uniform dashed to the scene. He spoke firmly but with a touch of caution, saying, "Owen, the higher authorities asked you to come down the mountain for reasons other than to brawl with each other." The three elders exchanged doubtful glances, feeling uneasy. "Why do they want to see us?"
The swords at their waists rattled, making it difficult for them to draw them out.
In a public environment, they certainly couldn't draw their swords.
"It's a directive from higher-ups," one of them said.
"They need you to back up Melody."
Melody was from the Pharma821.
