"They thought you were my dad? Really? They... They actually believed that?"Fred had returned to the attic of Elder Eisler's mansion on Brume Peak to continue his cultivation after dealing with Bernard. It was not long before Seelie came barging into his room, giggling as she looked at Fred.She asked, "How did it go? I heard that you experienced the power of a Holy Emperor from Bernard. You must have a preliminary assessment of your strength and Holy Emperor Agate’s now, right?""I do." Fred nodded slightly.Seelie immediately approached the man with a curious look on her face. "Tell me, tell me! If you were to fight against Holy Emperor Agate, who would win?""I haven't fought him yet, so it's hard for me to judge!" Fred replied calmly.Seeing Fred so composed, Seelie immediately looked suspicious and laughed. "Is that so?" Her brows furrowed immediately after. Technically speaking, Fred's journey to the Ancient Martial Realm this time was entirely related to the Holy Empero

"Highly skilled practitioners of formless divination?"Inside the main hall of the Triple Flair Sect, Malior and Elder Eisler frowned slightly when they heard Fred and Seelie’s request. Of course, they did not have any objections to Fred seeking someone proficient in the divining arts. Following the battle with Bernard, Malior had declared Fred a supreme elder of the Triple Flair Sect. It was a position even higher than his own.Fred's first request after becoming the supreme elder, however, was for them to look for someone proficient in formless divination. It immediately elicited creases on their foreheads. Malior immediately voiced his concerns, "Senior Fred, while there are quite a few experts on the subject in the Ancient Martial Realm, most of them are on Holy Martial Island. That's at the center of the Ancient Martial Realm. It's somewhat beyond our sect’s reach."Fred was not too surprised to hear that. The reason he approached the sect was because of the restrictions po

Challenging the Cross Enigma Sect was not something the Triple Flair Sect had considered ever since they became a third-rate sect. With Bernard’s suppression, they then fell further to become a fifth-rate sect. The Cross Enigma Sect, on the other hand, grew rapidly and developed into a first-rate sect after many years of evolution. After all, they had the vast resources they took from the original sect. In just a hundred years, they grew to become just as strong as the previous Triple Flair-Cross Enigma Sect.For a fifth-rate sect to challenge a first-rate sect—how could there have been any hope for them?However, with Fred now, everything was different! To Malior and the rest, Fred was a Holy Emperor! Regardless of what rank their sect used to be, with Fred as a Holy Emperor, they were now a first-rate sect!Thus, in his capacity as the sect leader, Malior immediately drafted a letter and handed it to Elder Eisler."Elder Eisler, I can't make the trip myself seeing that I'm th

The members of the Triple Flair Sect—including Malior, their sect leader, as well as the influential elders like Elder Tobiah—could not help but feel shocked at the suggestion. They all knew that the suggestion to initiate the challenge on their turf was just an euphemism. In reality, it meant going there to cause trouble.Even though they had witnessed Fred's formidable strength, Malior and the others still felt that they should follow the usual process when it came to dealing with the Cross Enigma Sect. The idea of directly challenging them on their turf had never crossed their minds.This was the mentality of the weak.Malior and the others were well aware that the Triple Flair Sect and the Cross Enigma Sect were once part of the same sect a century ago. However, the present Cross Enigma Sect had long since risen to become a top-tier sect, surpassing even the original sect.The Triple Flair Sect, on the other hand, was a small fifth-rate sect. What did they have to go and chal

Nowadays, there were only a handful of first-rate sects in the South Island of the Ancient Martial Realm. There were countless masters in these sects, and most of them were middle-level Ancient Warlords. In addition to them, there were also thousands of disciples within the sects. The mountain gate, which accommodated so many disciples behind it, was an especially majestic and imposing sight. All of these features undoubtedly made the disciples of Cross Enigma Sect extremely arrogant.This arrogance could be seen from the two disciples guarding the gate of the mountain. They had just driven away someone who came here to become a disciple.The disciple with the short hair immediately snorted disdainfully. "How dare a puny martial artist with such average qualifications wish to be a disciple of our sect? A fool’s dream! "Our sect is known by all to be a first-rate sect. Unless they're a martial genius like me, they can forget about joining the sect!”“Haha, you can say that agai
