Great Paladin born

"Wait what? So our young sect master just returned to the sect and is now instructing us on what he plans to do?"

"Shh! Just in case you didn't know, he's the first generation sect master and this is the sect he created to begin with!"

"But where was he in the past year when the sect was in its peak development stage?"

"I have no clue either, all of us have already been demoted by a rank and I'm now just an outer disciple. To think that I just became an inner disciple one month ago and I'm demoted to the outer disciple rank again."

Knowing that the disciples were talking about him, Nightin merely smiled throughout as the ten lines took on the form of smaller meteorites and headed straight for them.

These meteorites were powerful and there would be no possible way for his disciples to get out of this unscathed, but this was the only method for him to suppress his disciples.

When he only had a small number of disciples, he could divide his time and attention to them. But times have changed and even though he still knows to show concern for his disciples, he has to conceal it and only those with him since the beginning will understand.

"Seniors! Is he trying to kill us right after recognising us as his disciples!?" One of the core disciples wearing a white robe currently shouted to the skies while swords blue in colour surrounds everyone.

While everyone present was panicking and the other core disciples are occupied with defending themselves, this white robed disciple with his hair tied up neatly behind was seeking the truth while trying to defend others, only leaving behind his main sword to protect himself so that his other swords can be protecting the other disciples.

Not bad, maybe I can give him the chance to become the disciple in charge of the paladins hall which I'll be planning to build and develop.

The paladin hall is one of the hidden plans that Nightin had come up with ever since his intention to return to the sect, but that was merely an idea as he had no one in mind who was suitable to hold the position in charge of defending all major cities unlike the guards.

What he needs aren't soldiers always on a conquest and only to be forced into a defensive position when needed because their cities or allies are attacked in the future, what he needs is someone committed to protecting the sect and each city or marketplace while helping out with any defense against demon beasts invasion. This also includes the nearby realms so that they can increase their network connection and gain access to resources unique to that particular realm.

"Boom! Rumble!"

Meteorites slam into the disciples one after another as the weaker disciples come together while the strong ones challenge the stronger ones so that those weaker than them can also have the chance to survive this, but a few of the selfish ones actually took on a meteorite too easy for them which made things much more difficult for that white robed disciple.

"Sect master, just what is it that you want?" That was the only question this white robed disciple had as those blue swords materialized into angelic white swords of feathers.

"Haha, make a guess?" That was all Nightin said as he folded his arms behind his back, his sword vanishing from beneath him as he used his wings to fly instead.

"Seraphic sword dance!"

The swords of the white robed disciple then flew towards the meteorites at full throttle, each piercing through the meteorites before bursting into an electric to prevent the splashing of any excess blazing parts.

Should I take the risk? At this point of time, Nightin could sense the overwhelming strength of that youth and if his guess isn't wrong, then he must be one of those heavenly jewel constitution talents who never manage to dig out their true talent, but it seems like he has already found the secret behind his true strength.

With a single thought, the biggest meteorite heading for that white robed disciple expanded again and it was at least triple its previous size and judging from the destructive power of the others, only with the defensive strength comparable to his legacy disciples can he make it out alive.

I'm sorry, but I have to take the risk. That was the only notion that Nightin dared to have as even he didn't have confidence that the white robed disciple can survive this.

"Seraph of the end!"

A white glow of light shone upon this white robe disciple as his golden lustrous hair splashes behind him, his white robe glowing with a golden glow as his eyes turn golden in colour.

But one thing was different, he was a female.

"Sect master, must you have really forced me to use my true strength and reveal my gender?" The voice of a young woman asked, the disciple who was now cloaked in a golden robe as her sword vanished into her palm.

"Seraphic arc slash!" With a swing of her palm, two beams of energy intercrossed in the air and destroyed the meteorite without facing any resistance.

"Angel, So you're at the Martial Emperor?"

Turning around, Angel who had just impressed everyone present saw a short brown haired youth staring into her eyes, unable to accept what he had just seen.

With his back facing her, he asked solemnly while everyone kept silent "Didn't we agree that while you can keep your gender your secret, there should be no more secrets between us? Or is it because you think that you being such a young Martial Emperor will make my love for you lessen?"

"No, it isn't what you think." Angel hurriedly explained, unable to believe that such a goddess like her will be crying over a man.

"Are you doing this because you're worried about my self esteem?" The brown haired youth asked again, taking one step closer towards her.

"Rance! It's just that I… I…"

"You fool." Before Angel could even explain herself, she felt moist yet warm lips being planted on hers as she returned it back, she could feel her body flaring up and her cheeks burning, but all that didn't matter right now.

When Rance stepped back to see the last meteorite heading for them, Angel was about to make a move only to be stopped with a pat on her shoulder and a confident voice "Leave it to me."

"You may be the seraph, but it's about time I reveal my last secret to you as well. Blood Moon!"

When Rance said this, nothing about him changed besides his demeanor which increased exponentially. With a single wave of his robe, a circular disc slices the meteorite in half before bursting, totally eliminating its existence.

"Sect master! Disciple Rance hereby requests to join Angel in the position you're going to appoint her!" Before anyone could even understand what Rance was saying, Nightin had already given his answer.

"Whatever happened just now was a test and I'm very disappointed in each and every single one of you. Besides the weaker ones who were forced to come together because of their inferior strength, none of the current outer disciples helped the entry disciples and the same applies to the inner disciples."

"I'll only say this once, as a sect and with my return, it's about time I start developing all the new blood as well and before that, I need all of you to work together and help each other, not a selfish individual who only cares about his own benefits."

"In recognition of Angel's performance just now, I hereby appoint her as the Great paladin of the paladin hall, Rance will be assisting her as he second Great paladin. As for the requirements to enter the Paladin hall, only those with a heart that cares for the weak can enter, attempt to cross over before you're ready and the backlash you have to face."

From above, the legacy disciples flew down one after another, staring at all the disciples from above as Alexander stood out.

"From today onwards, only those below the age of twenty one with a cultivation base of at least the Martial King realm can enter my army. Remember, the requirements aren't strict since you'll be nothing but the weakest incapable of doing anything!" Stating the requirements to join his army swiftly while the aura he accumulated until now was released, only a few could be seen still looking at him without fear.

Haha, maybe there are a few potential ones I can take in.
