Chapter 62 - 53 The Way
"In name, the Palace Master of the academy in Yanghua Town is the strongest person, and this is indeed true. The Palace Master comes from the Upper City Sect and has one foot in the third realm of martial arts."
"The third realm of martial arts?" Lin Yuan’s heart was shaken as he continued to listen attentively.
"That’s right, the three realms of martial arts are the Qi-Blood Realm, the Condensing Yuan Realm, and the third realm, the Orifice Pulse Realm," Xie Wanxin explained seeing Lin Yuan’s interest in martial arts realms.
After a slight pause, Xie Wanxin continued, "As for the local influential Pei and Hong clans in Yanghua, they have been passed down for a century, with many experts emerging in their lineage. It is said that their ancestors’ cultivation levels are as high as the ninth level of the Condensing Yuan Realm."
"Of course, when facing the Palace Master, the Pei and Hong families coexist peacefully. Firstly, they need to respect the arrangements from the Upper City. Secondly, because the Palace Master leads a solitary life, they need the two families’ support, and at the same time, it balances the power between them by setting them against each other."
At this moment, the golden crow sets in the west, leaving only a trace of afterglow.
"Brother Lin, focus on studying martial arts diligently. Soon enough, you’ll be dressed in black robes, and resources will naturally come to you. There’s no need to rush or worry too much," Xie Wanxin smiled, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Xie, for letting me know. It’s getting late; let’s part ways here," Lin Yuan returned the gesture, and they parted ways.

Inside the small hut.
An oil lamp burned quietly, its flame flickering, occasionally sparking light that slightly swayed the shadow of the reader on the wall.
