Chapter 21 - A Few Elites Return!

The elder then looked at Zhao Cheng and said to their amazement, "Well, he deserves to be given the authority medallion that he has with him."

He then spoke further with a thoughtful look in his face, "When he first arrived in front of me to request for the use of the special combat space in the Battle Hall, I was astonished that someone as young as him and was only at the third-layer Common Law Warrior stage, could be given an elder's medallion."

"Then I went to meet the elder, elder Guo Lin who gave him the medallion to ask why he would do such a thing. But the explanations he gave me were shocking."

"From what he mentioned, he said that the boy claimed to kill a fifth-layer, Common Law Warrior-stage rogue cultivator that he came across on his way back to the sect."

"Furthermore, to personally see the boy's true combat strength, and to reveal the dazzling emergence of a new genius amongst the Outer Court Disciples, he handed the boy an elder's medallion under the greatly dumbfounded gazes of all the Outer Court disciples who will certainly challenge him for it."

"However, the boy swept through his various challengers without fear. He firstly faced a fifth-layer, Common Law Warrior-stage Body Cultivator who he overpowered very quickly, and that without using any sort of battle skill. Then to serve as a deterrent to others, he viciously crushed the arm and leg of this person."

"Then he fought a second Outer Court Disciple who was at the fourth layer of the Common Law Warrior stage and was proficient with the utilization of battle skills. He however still won without using any form of battle technique."

"Now, the question is what if he used one? I mean an actual battle skill. He certainly would have overwhelmed them and won rather easily. And from what I can infer from all that I have said, he might possibly overpower a sixth or seventh-layer Common Law Warrior stage cultivator if he ever comes across them." The elder said and broke a peculiar smile in his face.

Now, he was highly interested in Sun Kang and would love to see how far he could go.

When the genius-level disciples gathered around the elder heard what he said, they couldn't help but narrow their eyes as they looked at Sun Kang who had gone far into the distance.

"Hmm." Zhao Cheng finally muttered after a deep thought and refrained himself from mentioning or asking anything else.

At the moment, he had understood what had really happened. Which in other words, the reason why Sun Kang could possess an elder medallion just like him and be able to access the battle spaces within the Battle Hall for his personal training.

Then when Zhao Cheng tried to compare himself to Sun Kang when he was still at the Common Law Warrior stage, he immediately understood that there was no way he would be able to overpower higher-ranked cultivators without utilizing a Battle Skill. Or, he would be quickly finished off by the fierce attacks backed by specific laws of the world that will rage towards him with steel-denting strength and rock-pulverizing power.

"Thank you for this information, elder. Now, I will immediately be on my way. And I am really sorry for disturbing your meditation with my curious and aggressive questions." Zhao Cheng said and bowed deeply in reverence at the seated elder.

Then the moment he straightened himself back, he left where he was and began to walk into the distance to return to the residence that was provided to him by the sect for being one of its Great Sons. While the elder who looked at him only shook his head slightly with a smile hung on his lips. Only he understood what he was thinking.

"Elder, we will also be returning." Xia Chen politely said before bowing at the elder. While the others also did the same before straightening their backs and directly left the elder's presence to return to their grandiosely-decorated rooms within the sect.

...

When Sun Kang got to his room, he immediately sat in the cross-legged position on the ground to go through the Kang Clan's Radiant God art, and two ancient clans' arts called [Great Hegemon Divine Battle Art] and [Supreme Heavens Tyrannical Rebellion Art]. These were arts that he came across in his clan's library and when he was at the Common Law Warrior-stage cultivator in the Kang's mansion located within the Blessed Tyrant Planet.

But before he could go any further in his study of the three arts that had surfaced in his memory, his eyes suddenly flung open when he heard his name being called out by someone that stood before the door to his room.

"Elder Guo Lin?" Sun Kang asked with his eyes shining.

Although he already had a guess of why the elder was here, but he still left his room to go see the elder to know what had brought him to his room.

Immediately he appeared before the elder after coming out of his room, he bowed reverentially at the elder and said when he straightened himself back, "Elder, this junior is here."

"Good!" Elder Guo Lin said.

He then performed a flicking motion with his finger at Sun Kang with something shooting out of his sleeve towards Sun Kang as a ray of light.

The instant Sun Kang caught what had shot towards him within his left palm, he spread it open to reveal a silver-colored spatial ring that glittered in the rays of the sun.

"Elder, this is?" Sun Kang who already knew what the spatial ring was and what it would contain, still asked to feign ignorance about it.

"That item in your hand is a spatial ring. Or precisely, an inter-dimensional storage ring used to keep numerous amounts of items that will be difficult to carry about with you. So, with the help of this particular storage ring, you can keep hundreds to thousands of light to heavy miscellaneous objects and easily take them around with you without breaking a sweat." The elder casually replied, like the spatial ring he gave to Sun Kang wasn't enough to make him bat an eye.

He then said further, "To use the ring, just access the storage ability of the ring with your mind and cause it to produce a peculiar, spatial transportation force that will fully envelop the items that you want to to keep and make it retract back into the storage ring with the previously enveloped items now stowed somewhere within the dimensional storage space of the ring."

Once Elder Guo Lin mentioned these, he jumped high into the air and rapidly flew away as soon as he told Sun Kang what he needed to know about the spatial ring in his hand. What other useful things Sun Kang could discover about the spatial ring, he left them for Sun Kang to find out himself.

Immediately Elder Guo Lin left, Sun Kang broke a smile in his face and returned to his room to continue his comprehensive study of three of the numerous powerful arts that had resurfaced in his mind.

...

"We have returned! Finally." A tall, white-skinned male that was blue-eyed and had long black hair with a tinge of bluish violet on it, said to two other burly-looking boys and a fair-skinned and tender-looking, absolutely beautiful girl that were walking at his sides.

"Yes, finally. And now that we have grown stronger and more powerful, we can try requesting for an elder's medallion." One of the two boys walking by the sides of the blue-eyed boy, mentioned with unbreakable resolve in his tone.

Then he continued, "And if we are to fight the higher-ranking students to show that we truly qualify to be possessors of an elder medallion, we will surely do so."

"Exactly what we are going to do." The blue-eyed boy said and produced a brilliant but brutal smile in his face after saying that, while the girl by his side who seemed like a fairy come alive from a beautiful painting, nodded her head with an attractive, confident and determined smile appearing in her face.
