Chapter 431: The Nine Core Martial Artists

The horses Lin Bai and Ji Bei rode were excellent ones, carefully bred by the Royal Family of the Imperial Capital, offering remarkable speed. This allowed Lin Bai and Ji Bei to return to the Spirit Sword Sect within a short span of only three days.

Ji Bei continued, "Last year's nine core martial artists were mainly those who were promoted with the wholehearted support of the young sect master."

"Strength-wise, they rank from high to low as follows: Qu Feng, Ye Mobei, Long Xiangtian, Jing Zhonghai, Mei Heyuan, Cai Haoji, Lin Chen, Songzi Huan, Qi Yang."

Lin Bai nodded in silence. Though he had never heard of any of these people, they were indeed formidable to have been made core disciples, so they are unlike ordinary people in every way.
