Chapter 16: Reborn as the Enemy's Heir, a Marquis (4)
The next day marked the Heavenly Wind Kingdom's Martial Dao Grand Tournament. Geniuses from every sect had gathered, making this one of the most talent-rich editions in nearly a century.
Unfortunately for them, a monster had appeared this time. Even those who had reached the third layer of Spirit Vein stood no chance. The gulf between the third layer and the seventh layer of Spirit Vein was simply too vast.
Su Chen did not even need to move his body. With a single strike, he sent his opponent flying in defeat. He then entered the Spirit Pool for cultivation and advanced once more, breaking through to the eighth layer of Spirit Vein. His path in this life proceeded without the slightest hindrance.
Su Chen spent another year cultivating at the Heavenly Wind Martial Mansion, finally reaching the ninth layer of Spirit Vein before graduating. He became the youngest graduate in the history of the Heavenly Wind Martial Mansion.
After leaving the mansion, Su Chen did not return directly to the Marquis of Pacifying the Seas' residence. Instead, he set out first for the Heavenly Wave Sect. His stated reason was to verify and refine his martial techniques.
Thus, accompanied by his maidservant, guards, and steward, Su Chen proceeded grandly toward the Heavenly Wave Sect.
…
Half a month later, inside the Heavenly Wave Sect.
"May I ask what business brings the young marquis to our Heavenly Wave Sect?"
