Surprising Power

Galen Blackthorn moved to assess the situation, which didn't match his expectations. Initially, the young man was confident that the three disciples would only test and not harm Julius. However, he realized that Julius's attitude had provoked the anger of the three disciples facing him. Considering this, Galen Blackthorn refrained from moving to rescue Julius.

Blasshhh...

"Demon Diver Seal!"

Galen Blackthorn was shocked by what happened before his eyes. The attacks of the three disciples vanished without a trace. For a moment, a white light formed a shield composed of seal characters, blocking the attacks. Then, the three powerful attacks of the disciples disappeared without a trace.

Galen Blackthorn's astonishment was entirely justified. The Demon Diver Seal was the main technique of the Tower of God Academy, which could only be used by cultivators at least at the ninth level of the peak spirit realm. Only three tower headmasters, Master Kaelen Frostfire, and the Chairman of the Tower of God could use the seal. It was impossible for a disciple at the ninth level of the Earth Peak spirit realm to use it.

Galen Blackthorn initially suspected that Master Kaelen Frostfire was overseeing and aiding Julius. However, after glancing around and trying to sense the presence of others, he found nothing. There were no strong individuals coming or hiding in that place. The only answer was that Julius was the one using the Legendary Seal.

Unlike the other three disciples, although they were very surprised by what had happened, they were not as shocked as Galen Blackthorn. This was because their knowledge had not yet reached the realm of the main techniques and legendary techniques of the Tower of God Academy. So, they only thought luck was back on Julius's side. However, just as they were preparing to attack again, something surprising happened.

Blammm!

A small explosion occurred. The three disciples challenging Julius fell down. Somehow, their prepared attacks ended up hitting themselves. Meanwhile, Julius appeared to have just waved the sleeve of his right arm. Strangely, their power rebounded, attacking them instead, causing the three disciples to fall after being thrown several spear-lengths away.

Not only the three challengers of Julius were perplexed by the events they faced. Galen Blackthorn himself was left agape by the scene before him. He indeed saw what his friend, Julius, did. For a moment, he witnessed Julius using wind element control techniques to reverse the direction of the attacks of the three disciples.

"I never thought that with only a Peak Earth Spirit Level Martial Spirit, you would already possess many techniques and abilities that should be possessed by cultivators at the Spirit Realm level. It turns out I was right in choosing you as a friend and someone who will teach me many abilities!" Galen Blackthorn sincerely praised from his heart.

Upon hearing Galen Blackthorn's words, the three disciples understood what had caused their easy defeat by Julius. Although it sounded impossible and something Julius couldn't possibly possess, they had experienced it themselves. Therefore, whether they liked it or not, they had to believe Galen Blackthorn's words.

"We apologize, Julius, for doubting your abilities. Just by being at the ninth level of the Earth Peak realm, you have managed to defeat the three of us who are at the heavenly spirit realm. We truly admit defeat to you and are willing to learn from you, Julius," one of the three disciples who had previously disliked Julius said.

 Julius nodded with a smile as he responded to his friend's words, Dorian Star, "You don't need to worry about that. I understand your concerns very well! Given my condition, it's only natural for you to doubt me," Julius said again.

Finally, the three of them agreed to advance together in training. Even the three disciples, plus Galen Blackthorn, truly respected Julius for his intelligence. During this opportunity, Dorian Star asked how Julius could master high-level techniques that could only be used by cultivators at the Semi-Peri Spirit Realm and above. However, Julius did not answer truthfully; he just smiled and said that it might be the luck he possessed.

Galen Blackthorn and the other three disciples did not press Julius to answer their questions. All four of them were sure that the young man had his own reasons that could not be disclosed. Moreover, they felt that Julius was genuinely willing to teach them. They began to practice according to Julius's instructions.

In a short time, the fourth realm improvement of the four disciples who trained with Julius was achieved quite rapidly. Now, Galen Blackthorn was at the fifth level of the heavenly spirit realm, while Dorian Star was at the third level of the heavenly spirit realm. The other two also experienced the same increase as Dorian Star. Yet, to reach that level, they had to train for at least six months at the fastest.

 Julius also taught the four disciples high-level techniques taught by Master Kaelen Frostfire to him. Although the techniques they learned were only the highest techniques at their respective realms, it was a source of pride for them. Not everyone could obtain those techniques unless they learned directly from a Master like Master Kaelen Frostfire, the Vice Chairman of the Academy.

A few moments after finishing their training, Galen Blackthorn and the other three disciples suddenly looked at each other. Then, they all nodded, indicating their agreement on something. Then, all four of them suddenly bowed to Julius, "We four disciples of the Tower of God Academy from the Earth Dragon Tower group express our gratitude for the teaching given by our little Master!" They said simultaneously.

Apparently, the four disciples felt very grateful to Julius, expressing it by bowing and calling him "little Master." What they did was truly heartfelt, without any intention of mockery or jest. Julius himself didn't mind being called "little Master" and just smiled.
