So that was the case. Philip nodded silently.
Marquis Fulmore returned the token to Philip and said gravely, “Although Emperor Kai’s Token isn’t as good as the Human Emperor’s Token, to a certain degree, its usage is the same. The splendor of the First Emperor still commands awe. Even someone like Emperor Kai wouldn’t dare to call himself the Human Emperor, so you can imagine what a supreme presence it is…”
“Kid, I never expect that you’d be acknowledged by the Human Emperor as his successor. Do your best. This world will eventually be handed over to the younger generation as you.”
While saying that, Marquis Fulmore patted Philip on his shoulder, putting all his hopes and ambition on him.
The world belonged to the younger generation, after all. Old people like them could only do their best to clear the obstacles for these young people of the future.
Philip nodded and said, “Thanks for your clarification, Marquis Fulmore.”
Marquis Fulmore smiled and said, “Have a good rest. I’ll be going back too. Come to me if you face any problems, but I still want to remind you not to act on your own in Cochly Mountain. I’ll find time to take you to the stargate.”
With that said, Marquis Fulmore left.
Philip and Fennel returned to the dormitory where 17 and the other Shadow Guards had been waiting.
“Young Patriarch, are you alright?” 17 asked with concern.
Philip smiled, stroked 17’s head, and said, “I’m fine. You guys should have some rest.”
***
The next day, Philip and the others woke up bright and early.
He and Fennel sat at the door of the dormitory, watching the guards and disciples train outside. Indeed, this place was different from what they imagined. These disciples had their own way of training.
“How confident are you that you can get out?” Philip suddenly asked.
Fennel frowned, thought for a while, and replied, “A few of them are on par with me. I have no guarantees.”
Philip asked, “When do you think they’ll come and mess with us?”
Fennel smiled and said, “That’s hard to say. It depends on what the people behind them plan to do.”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, the bald man who was defeated yesterday rushed over angrily with several people.
“It’s them, Brody. You must make a stand for us. This guy was too tough on us!” the bald man complained to the burly bearded man next to him.
The burly man had his arms exposed and was wearing a suit of armor on his upper body that revealed his sturdy physique.
With his small eyes, favonovel.com glared at Philip and Fennel viciously, and roared, “Are you the ones who beat my buddy up? You brats, stand up and fight with me!”
Philip raised his eyebrows, glanced at the bald man, and said with a smile, “Oh, have you recovered from your injuries already? It looks like the beating yesterday wasn’t enough.”
Hearing this, the bald man was furious. He pointed at Philip and shouted, “Boy, don’t be arrogant. Brody has the strength of the middle of the sixth zone. He’ll beat you up later until you kneel and beg for mercy!”
Brody snorted coldly, clenched his fists, and stared at Philip coldly.
He hooked his finger and said, “Boy, stand up and let me smash your head with a punch!”
Philip looked sideways and said disdainfully, “No can do.”
