AN EXPERT

With a cheerful face, Shiv went back to eating the delicacies. Seeing Shiv going back like nothing happened every one turned gazes to the city lord. City lord simply turned away his gaze and looked into the sky pretending as he didn't see anything. Though no one knows why the city lord is turning a blind eye to those two kids. Few people even started to whisper saying, "did the city lord planned to offend the Sue clan and everything that happened right now is completely a planned revenge?

Though there might be a chance that everything is planned but did you notice their cultivation?

They entered the test with chi refinement level five and chi refinement level six. Now both of them were at chi refinement level six and seven. It was understandable that one of them was already at the verge of a breakthrough and successfully achieved a breakthrough. But is that really possible for both of them to plan a breakthrough and do it while they are getting tested?" Hearing these words everyone noticed the difference in their level.

in the beginning, the test started as everyone is waiting for these two kids to arrive, was quite eye-catching. hence everyone noticed their cultivation. Seeing that both of them made a breakthrough everyone got little hesitant and looked at the city lord again. This time he is whistling like a bird and enjoying himself, seeing this every one slapped their faces and turned down that idea.

Just at that moment Sue-Hisashi who had been seeing everything from a side stepped in and said, "city lord, didn't shiv fought with Sora, Isn't that violating the rules? "Though his son got beaten up badly without a chance to fight back he didn't want to embarrass himself by saying, "someone just beat up my son till he ate mud, don't you know?". Seeing his father standing up for him and even turning the situation into getting beaten up badly to fighting which sounded like both of them are equals, Sora's eyes filled with tears.

Hearing the Sue clan head's argument, city lord was taken aback. He wanted to shout at the Sue clan head to stop arguing but he doesn't wanted to sound like he is taking sides. Hence, he said that the first round has already completed and the second round hasn't started yet so there are no rules to say what they can and they can't in the time given for them to rest and what will they do is completely up to them.

Hearing the city lord's answer Sue-clan head was completely dumbfounded. He wanted to beat the city lord at that moment but thinking of the consequences he gave up that thought. His son got beaten up and the city lord isn't involving in the matter while his reputation and the Sue-clans reputation is on the line. Hence he didn't want to back off at this moment and wanted to pull his weight and wanted to get back at them, as the city lord said it's completely out of their rules to involve in the participant's issues he smirked a little. With a devilish smile on his face, he understood that city lord isn't going to involve in the two kids matter. Hence with his middle tire intermediate mage stage cultivation, there is no one that can stop him other than the city lord. Now the only thing in his mind is of the two kids. With the advantage of higher cultivation, he can easily kill them if he want. If he makes a move, before anyone could understand what's going on both of them would be dead. Once they were killed there is no one who can oppose the Sue clan. After killing them it would be a good lesson for others, they would have to think twice before offending the Sue clan. With such intentions in his mind, he swiftly moved towards both of them.

Seeing that the Sue clan head was about to make a move on the two kids, City Lord's heart skipped a beat. He got up from the chair and started to run towards him in hope of stopping him but as he is too far to reach he wasn't able to come in the time. With a swift jump Sue clan head reached near the two kids and the sheer strength and force that he used to jump made the dust to raise and covered the entire area.

As Shiv and John don't know what's going on, they just completed munching on the food and decided to cultivate a little as there is chi refinement eight cultivators in the top forty participants and the next round is going to be a duel between the opponents. It would be tough to fight chi refinement level eight cultivators, while they were still at chi refinement level six and seven. John might have defeated one with chi refinement level eight before but he isn't sure to do it again as the energy that surged suddenly due to emotion isn't reliable every time and he might just lose the test.

Just as they closed their eyes dust rose up and covered them. All the others saw was an old man packing the food items while the two cultivators closed their eyes. Everyone thought that both the kids were in great danger and they were about to witness a murder that was going to happen under the bright sun. As they were waiting to see what's happening, a person was sent flying and landed on the stage heavily. Seeing the person who was flying a moment ago was the clan head, Everyone was dumbfounded, as the head of the top clan, his cultivation had already reached middle tire intermediate mage stage cultivation.

There are ten levels for chi refinement and then-nascent mage low tire, middle tire, and pinnacle then intermediate tire mages. Chi refinement cultivators are like flies for the intermediated mages. Hence they can't stop the clan head so who in the world had the ability to stop the clan head?

Under the curious gazes, they looked into the dust and the dust suddenly started to revolve and gathered at a place before coming to a halt revealing an old man with a snow-white beard. Seeing the old man standing as nothing happened they tried to see through his cultivation but they were unable to do so. This can only mean that his cultivation had reached an unprecedented level in cultivation, which they cannot fathom. Seeing such a powerful expert beside them everyone's eyes bulged in astonishment.

Such a powerful expert was right in front of them the whole time but they didn't even notice him. If they knew that they had the backing of such a powerful expert they would have tried to strike a conversation in order to forge a good connection.
