“Respect to the patriarch.” The gatekeepers immediately bowed in respect upon seeing Fa Wa.

Fa Wa merely smiled and led Ziyan Rouxi and Xiao Tian inside.

Xiao Tian arrived at Fa Wa’s residence. Fa Wa looked at Xiao Tian. “Tian, you will stay here now. However, although I have adopted you as my grandson, you will not be exempt from duties. Your task is to clean the entire courtyard and the training area. You must also take care of all the books in this house; do not let a single book gather dust! When you turn ten, I will register you as a disciple of this sect. Even though I am the patriarch, I must follow the sect’s rules. Do you understand?”

Xiao Tian clasped his hands together. “Grandfather, I understand.”

****

Every day, Xiao Tian diligently performed his tasks. Every morning, Xiao Tian diligently swept the courtyard, removing the scattered dry leaves. The morning sunlight reflected off the sweat on his innocent face. After that, he moved on to his next task, dusting off the books during the day. His small but nimble hands wiped each book carefully, not wanting to damage the precious pages.

At night, Xiao Tian took advantage of the opportunity without Fa Wa’s knowledge, sneaking into the library. In the silence of the night, he read the books with great interest, absorbing the knowledge within. Despite his young age, his determination and passion for learning never waned.

Three years had passed since Xiao Tian had been living in the Supreme Sword Sect. He was now nine years old.

“Tian, let’s go to the martial arena. There’s an interesting event to watch,” said Ziyan Rouxi. She was now eleven years old. Although she had turned eleven, her beautiful face already looked more mature.

Xiao Tian nodded; he was also very interested in the battles of the talented disciples. He watched the competition to find the strongest disciple in the Supreme Sword Sect.

When they arrived at the martial arena, no one dared to stop them, as everyone knew that the two children were the patriarch’s grandchildren.

“Look! Is that the patriarch’s adopted grandson named Tian?” one disciple asked another.

“Yes, that’s Tian. Unfortunately, he doesn’t like martial arts; he has never been seen training.”

“Maybe he’s waiting until he turns ten to start training.”

“Hahaha, he’s indeed the useless adopted grandson of the patriarch. Unlike Miss Ziyan, even though she hasn’t turned ten yet, her fingers are always busy with training, so when she turns ten, she won’t just start training, but she’ll already be able to defeat disciples older than her.”

“Maybe that’s the difference between a real grandchild and an adopted one. After all, he is adopted, so it’s normal if his martial arts talent is lacking.”

Xiao Tian heard the disciples’ remarks. However, Xiao Tian never took them to heart. He was used to the insults from the sect’s disciples. Despite his status as Fa Wa’s adopted grandson, people did not hesitate to mock him.

Ziyan Rouxi wanted to reprimand them, but Xiao Tian stopped her. “There’s no need to respond to them; let’s go see grandfather.”

“You’re too lenient with them. If you keep this up, they’ll keep mocking you!” Ziyan Rouxi was displeased that her adopted brother was being belittled.

“No need to be angry. Besides, I’m not hurt by their insults.” Xiao Tian smiled slightly. However, behind that smile lay a hidden meaning.

They both sat behind Fa Wa. They listened as Fa Wa laid out the rules for the competition to find the strongest disciple under seventeen years old.

Fa Wa looked at everyone present. “You all know why this competition is being held. It’s to find the strongest talent. Whoever wins will represent the Supreme Sword Sect in the She Empire tournament. So, use all your abilities so I can determine the best resources for you. I will personally train the strongest disciple for a year. By the time the tournament is held, you will be ready to compete with disciples from other sects and kingdoms in the She Dynasty. Do you understand?”

Fa Wa’s voice carried inner energy, so his words were heard by everyone present.

“Patriarch, we understand.” All the disciples answered in unison.

“Good, as long as you understand!” Fa Wa looked at one of the elders. “Liu Qingyun, lead the event!”

Liu Qingyun was an elder with high status in the sect. Although he was not young anymore, his muscles and fierce face showed he was very strong.

“Yes, patriarch.” Liu Qingyun immediately stepped into the martial arena. He began the competition.

Xiao Tian continued to watch the fights. However, his eyes were always drawn to one male disciple. That disciple’s name was Daniel.

Xiao Tian murmured, “Daniel has an internal energy of 230 rings; he’s already a third-class warrior. But he’s sealing his internal energy and showing that he only has 100 rings. This guy is very cautious; it seems he’s the one who will win this competition.”

    And Dao Bao managed to hold back the incoming sword energy. His body was pushed back a few steps, but not to the point of losing balance. Yet, that was only one slash, what if there were hundreds of slashes? The question was not spoken, but clearly reflected in the change in his expression. Dao Bao did not say anything else, but his movements showed he understood that this situation should not be allowed to drag on. The silence was not hesitation, but re-calculation. Dao Bao retreated millions of feet, when he retreated. Every step of his retreat was accompanied by a shift in patterns in the surrounding space. The space behind him was opened by new patterns, making the retreat path not messy, but organized, though still forced to be fast. The patterns functioned as buffers, preventing the rear pressure from destroying the space’s balance. BOOM!!! An explosion sound from another direction was heard. Its vibration spread through the Cosmic Sea, creating dark ripp

    The Eastern Sea Palace’s First General could barely avoid the attacks from the endless chains. Every one of his movements was always limited by the changing positions of the next incoming chains. Every time he forced an escape route, chains came to block it. The blocking was not rough, but exact on the path he chose. Every time he held on, the cage pressed down tighter. The pressure came from all sides, making the space to breathe increasingly narrow. Every time he was about to execute his skill, his technique was immediately attacked and destroyed. The destruction happened even before the energy reached full stability. The attack did not wait for it to be fully formed, as if Dao Bao was able to read his intent from the very start of the movement. That reading was not a guess, but the result of long experience. The Eastern Sea Palace’s First General continued to avoid the chains attacking him. His movements were now more careful, because every mistake would have

    Array patterns appeared, not only from the Cosmic Sea, and the sky, but from all directions. The direction of their appearance cut off all safe paths that had still been available. The patterns did not stand alone, but covered each other’s distances, forming overlapping layers. The layers created gradual pressure, not an instant explosion. The space that had previously been open for the First General and the three Array experts slowly narrowed, like a trap set step by step. Every step ensured no escape routes were left. The Array patterns became a cage for the Eastern Sea Palace’s First General and also the three Array experts from the three ruling Palaces. The cage had no physical form, but its presence was far more real than a steel wall. Inside the cage, the directions up and down seemed the same, because patterns appeared on all sides. Orientation lost meaning, only pressure remained. Anyone who moved carelessly would immediately meet the next attack path. Ev

    The chains did not stop after destroying the giant axe, thousands of chains immediately shot out to attack the First General. The follow-up attack came without a gap, as if the axe’s destruction was only the opening of the main sequence. Their movement covered each other, coming from various angles, leaving no room for one moment of ease. The attack angles formed a three-dimensional net, making the space around the First General lose the concept of front and back. Each chain moved straight, then changed direction in the middle of the way, as if guided to press on the same point. The direction change did not happen by chance, but due to Array calculations that were continuously updated with every breath. “Damn it, who the hell are you?” the First General shouted. His voice sounded loud, but underneath it was hidden pressure because he realized his position was no longer favorable. His eyes moved quickly, assessing where the next attack would come from, while keeping dis

    Dao Bao looked at the axe without fear. His attitude did not change, because in his assessment, the attack was still within the limits he could handle. “Even though this old man’s power has not fully recovered, facing you is not a difficult matter!” The statement was not made to belittle the enemy, but to confirm his position in this field. Dao Bao formed a hand seal. The movement was slow and clear, showing no urgency, as if time around him moved following his rhythm. Then a very large Array pattern appeared from the Cosmic Sea. The pattern did not appear from the air, but from the surface of the thick black sea, as if the Cosmic Sea itself became part of its forming medium. BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ!!! The vibration spread widely, indicating that the formation of this Array involved a structure far larger than a single formation. The Array pattern that appeared was not just one, but dozens. Each stood alone, yet clearly connected to each other. Then those circular

    Everyone immediately stepped back, they were very scared, that Great Elder had a Fifth-Rank True Divine Ruler realm, but he was so easily killed by Xiaoxiao. That difference was too striking to be ignored. Even the parties that had been full of anger held their steps, because the death happened in one attack, with no room for reaction. WHOOSSHH!!! WHOOSSHH!!! The First Generals from each Palace descended. Their presence immediately changed the threat scale. They did not dare to underestimate this group that had suddenly come to support Xiao Tian. One misjudgment could lead to war between Palaces. Their positions spread out, keeping enough distance to cover each other, yet not leaving gaps for the enemy to choose one target easily. Every position was taken with field calculations. The First General looked at several Palace higher-ups. “You keep an eye on Xiao Tian especially Tuo Xun, don’t let him take his young generation away and escape. I and the other Palace
