Warrior’s Promise

“Sigh! This is infuriating!”

Qin Zhi sighed. He and many disciples had been yearning to be disciples of some of the elders but they had not been given the opportunity to do so.

However, Wu Shan had turned down the invitations of so many elders to be their disciple.

That was a slap in the face to those people who had been dying for that to happen to them!

“Eh?”

Suddenly, something caught Qin Zhi’s attention. He saw Su Mo walking out of the courtyard with a board in his hand. Some words were carved on the board.

“What’s he up to?”

Qin Zhi was curious. He fixed his gaze on Su Mo and saw Su Mo hanging the board on the wall of his gate.

After Su Mo had done so, he shut the gate and returned to his courtyard.

“Wu Shan only learns from the top powers who are at the Great Completion Supreme Realm. For those who are below this realm, please do not come to me!”

When Qin Zhi read out the words that were carved on the board, he suddenly felt the Blood Qi in his body surging and he almost spurted blood.

“This…!”

Qin Zhi was astounded. What in the world is that!

Throughout the ages in Palmy Branch, only the elders would select the people to be their disciples. However, Wu Shan was selecting the elders to be his Teacher!

Wu Shan was not interested in the elders who were below the Great Completion Supreme Realm!

Hello! That is the Supreme Realm!

The Supreme Realm was a realm beyond the ordinary disciples, and none of the disciples dared to even think about it.

To the ordinary disciples, there was no difference between the Beginning Supreme Realm and the Great Completion Supreme Realm. They could only dream of it!

Qin Zhi’s expression was interesting. In one instant, he was speechless. In another instant, he looked disappointed. After a while, he looked weird.

His perspective of things had changed utterly.

“Brother Wu Shan, you are amazing!”

After some time, Qin Zhi shook his head resignedly. He was envious of Wu Shan.

…

I should be able to focus on my cultivation now!

Su Mo took a deep breath as he sat in the room. He had no choice but to hang up the board outside his courtyard.

With so many people visiting him, he was unable to cultivate in peace. Thus, he had had to resort to putting up the board.

Su Mo shut his eyes and started to cultivate.

The board did the job. After several hours, no one came to disturb Su Mo and he could finally cultivate in peace.

Although Su Mo was enjoying peace, Palmy City was in an uproar because of him.

“Wow! So many elders have gone to look for Wu Shan to recruit him as their disciple!”

“This is infuriating. Wu Shan has turned down all of them. He is ridiculous!”

“Wu Shan is arrogant!”

“He is not only arrogant but he is rude! Did you see the board that he has put up? He has no regard for the elders who are below the Great Completion Supreme Realm!”

“I think Wu Shan possesses great mental strength but his talent is ordinary. He is afraid that his talent will be found out if he were to learn from a Teacher. When that happens, he will be driven out and brings humiliation to himself!”

“That’s possible. After all, no one has seen his combat strength!”

“…”

The courtyards and streets in the entire Palmy City were full of discussion of Wu Shan.

News that the elders had the desire to recruit Wu Shan as their disciple and the content of the board that Wu Shan had put up had become the talking point of the people.

Most of the people who were talking about Wu Shan were angry with him.

However, there was a common trait among those people. All of them were envious of him.

They were green with envy!

The ordinary disciples had been yearning to be disciples of those elders. However, when the elders had come to Wu Shan, Wu Shan had shown no regard for them.

That was infuriating!

Many disciples had lost their cool as they were jealous of Wu Shan.

Cui Yan and Hu Mei’er were among them.

“This is infuriating. Why is Wu Shan so fortunate?”

Cui Yan said angrily as he sat in a beautiful courtyard. It had been his desire to learn from one of the elders and he had even made a special trip to the elder to recommend himself.

As predicted, he had failed in his attempt as the elder had refused to accept him as his disciple.

However, many elders had gone to look for Wu Shan to recruit him as their disciple. That was infuriating!

Cui Yan felt most frustrated as Wu Shan did not show regard for any of the elders!

“Hoho! He has turned all the elders down. He gets nothing in the end.” Hu Mei’er sneered. Although she had made such a comment, everybody could tell that she spoke out of jealousy.

No one would not be envious!

At least 90 percent of the people in the entire Palmy City were full of envy for Wu Shan!

Other than the elders and the disciples of the elders, almost everyone was envious! If anyone were to comment that they were not envious, they would be lying!

As the disciples in Palmy City were green with envy for Wu Shan, the elders were having different thoughts.

Some were furious as they were turned down by Wu Shan, but some shrugged it off since Wu Shan had no desire to be their disciple.

Some of the elders who had the intention to recruit Wu Shan as their disciple but had not taken any action and put off the thought for the time being.

There were more than 100 elders who were at the Great Completion Supreme Realm in Palmy Branch. However, these elders had no intention to accept any more disciples. Even if they had, they would not look for Wu Shan but just put the thought on hold.

After all, no one knew how talented Wu Shan was.

Su Mo sat in the room and cultivated for more than two years, and he was not concerned with the situation in the outside world.

This day, he opened his eyes, and the aura in his body was immense.

I have finally reached Rank 9! Su Mo let out a long breath. He had taken more than two years to break through the realm and that was fast.

Back when he was in the Cosmic World, he would have needed a minimum of seven years before he could have a breakthrough to another realm.

However, after he had merged with the Vastness Purple Qi Primordial Spirit, his cultivation speed had increased tremendously.

Shortly, Su Mo left his room and walked out of the courtyard. He intended to visit Ling Chang.

He had not seen Ling Chang for two years and he wondered how she was faring.

Moreover, it seemed strange for her not to visit him after such a long period of time.

After pondering for a while, Su Mo decided to head to Dhamma Hall. Back then before they parted from each other, Ling Chang was comprehending the Rules in Dhamma Hall.

What’s happening?

When Su Mo was walking on the streets, he felt many pairs of eyes looking sharply at him.

He shuddered as not only those people who were walking on the streets were looking at him, but those who were in the shops were doing likewise!

Wherever he went, the area would quieten down all of a sudden.

I believe I am now famous after I defeated Xiao Yushu in the Spiritual Fight! Su Mo reckoned. He believed that the people had behaved in that manner due to the Spiritual Fight.

Soon, Su Mo came to Dhamma Hall and walked in.

There were many statues in the hall, and many disciples were comprehending the Rules.

Ling Chang was still sitting in front of the Buddha Sunyata statue to comprehend the Rules of Space.

She is still here! Su Mo was surprised to see that Ling Chang had been comprehending the Rules in Dhamma Hall. No wonder she had not visited him.

Su Mo walked up to Ling Chang and stood beside her and looked at her.
