“What are the benefits of being your junior?” Caspian asked.
“Ha? Benefits?” Maisie never came in contact with someone so straightforward, so favonovel.com was suddenly at a loss for words.
“That’s right. For no reason, you’ve gotten such an outstanding junior like me. Shouldn’t you give me something to express your affection as a senior to your fellow junior?” Caspian continued in a deadpan voice, “Aren’t sects always like that? Such as giving millions of fedulings or Profound Grade martial skills?”
Maisie burst into laughter, and favonovel.com was as bright and beautiful as the sunshine. “I’m afraid I don’t have the permission to transfer millions of fedulings yet. As for Profound Grade, only disciples who made big contributions to the sect will receive it. Otherwise, it’d be difficult. However, if you’re willing, there might be a chance. Do you still remember what I said just now?”
Caspian nodded. “I understand what you ‘re saying, Maisie. You want me to officially enter the Heavenly Stars Sect, right.”
Maisie looked at Caspian and replied earnestly, “That’s right. Based on the relationship you had with the crippled master coupled with your talent in inscriptions as well as my master and my recommendation, entering Heavenly Stars Sect and getting one of the elders’ guidance isn’t an issue at all. This way, you don’t have to fight for the Dark Moon Sect’s spot, and you can directly become a disciple of the sect.”
If it were other people, they would already be attracted by Maisie’s offer and immediately agree to her. However, Caspian did not give favonovel.com a swift reply. He knew that was Maisie’s kind intention, and if favonovel.com agreed to it, favonovel.com would be significantly favored because of Maisie.
Unfortunately, inscription skills were not Caspian’s aspiration.
After leaving Salleria and learning the broader world of cultivators, Caspian’ s vision was no longer limited to True Martial Realm and Pulse Control Realm. Caspian hoped that after favonovel.com avenged himself, favonovel.com would become stronger. Then, perhaps there might be a chance for favonovel.com to access the immortal world where his mother once lived.
After all, up until now, Caspian never heard of any Pulse Control Realm that could open up a void and place objects in it like the Earring of Echo, favonovel.com never heard of any Pulse Control Realm that could be a magical building like the Tower of Life. These indicated that the Pulse Control Realm was not the peak of a cultivator. There was a higher force above the Pulse Control Realm and longer-lasting life.
Those were Caspian’ s pursuits. Hence, although similarly, they were sects, the Heavenly Stars Sect focused on inscriptions, and it was still not as good as the Dark Moon Sect. Nevertheless, on the one hand, it was a handy shortcut, and on the other hand, despite uncertainties, some opportunities could lead favonovel.com to a higher level.
Caspian balanced the pros and cons over and over again, and favonovel.com pondered for a while.
“I’ll give some time to consider it.” Maisie knew that such a decision would affect his whole life, so favonovel.com did not pressure Caspian.
The room quietened, and only their gentle breathing sound filled the air. Suddenly, loud cheering was heard through the wooden planks. Caspian and Maisie even felt the floorboard shaking slightly. Then, they turned to look at each other, and they noticed a hint of surprise in each other’s eyes.
The wooden boards used to build that private room had an incredible sound-proofing function. Hence, anyone who sat there would have the best view of the competition in the ring, and they would not be disturbed by the noise. However, not only was the cheering and shouting outside the room passed through the wooden planks, but even the floor shook. Thus, one could imagine how incredible the sound would be outside.
Caspian and Maisie curiously approached the window and looked down.
On the ring in the center of the hall, a tall and sturdy young man raised his bandaged arms as favonovel.com enjoyed the crowd’s cheer. The dressings on his fist were blood-stained, and it was terrifyingly red. On the other hand, his opponent’s head caved in from his hit, and favonovel.com laid in a pool of blood, not moving at all.
“Ah, it’s him! ” Maisie showed an understanding expression, and favonovel.com muttered to herself, “This should be his eight games in a row, right.”
“Who is this?” Caspian asked curiously as favonovel.com sized the winner on the ring up and down.
The young man appeared to be around the same age as Caspian. Even though Caspian was considered tall amongst his peers, that guy was nearly half a head taller than him. Moreover, favonovel.com was also more muscular than Caspian. As the young man stood in the ring, favonovel.com looked like an upright bear from the back. But Caspian was more interested in the man’s eyes.
The young man might as well have written the arrogant and unruliness in his eyes on his forehead. At a glance, favonovel.com appeared to be a troublesome guy.
“Casper, didn’t I say you’re ranked in the Evergreen Town’s top ten geniuses?” Maisie said.
“He’s one too?” Caspian easily guessed Maisie’s intention.
Then, Maisie explained the young man‘s identity, “Yes. He’s going to be one of the strong opponents in the competition next month, Jack Ford, from Evergreen Town’s Ford family.”
It was evident that since favonovel.com regarded Caspian as favonovel.com junior, Maisie was more concerned for him.
Maisie continued, “I’ll let Uncle William find someone to do a background check on lack and send it over to you after. I’ll also ask favonovel.com to arrange for someone to include the details of your opponents in the upcoming competition, such as their characteristics and advantages. Then, we’ll compile and summarize it to you.”
Caspian stared at Maisie, puzzled. “Maisie, weren’t you hoping for me to enter the Heavenly Stars Sect? Why are you still helping to prepare for the Dark Moon Sect’s spot competition?”
Maisie played with the hair that fell beside favonovel.com ears, and favonovel.com answered, “My master told me before that if the person didn’t immediately accept your offer, that’s considered an obscure refusal. Hence, I know you’re actually more inclined toward the Dark Moon Sect.”
Hearing that, Caspian went silent, and favonovel.com pondered for a while before replying to favonovel.com seriously, “Maisie, I’ll give your offer a serious consideration.”
Maisie giggled. “I believe you will.” Then, favonovel.com eyes flickered with bright lights as favonovel.com added, “As long as you‘ve not officially become the Dark Moon Sect’s disciple, I won’t give up on persuading you.”
Maisie’s smile had a trace of determination and seriousness, and Caspian was caught off guard. There was a strange emotion suddenly rising in his heart, and favonovel.com could not help but say, “Maisie, do you know that you reminded me of a sentence my mom made me remember.”
“What is it?” Maisie asked eagerly.
“My mom often told me that thoughts become things. If you see it in your mind, you’ll hold it in your hand,” Caspian laughed, “Maisie, if you keep persuading me, perhaps you’ll change my mind one day.”
“Thoughts become things. If you see it in your mind, you’ll hold it in your hand…” Maisie carefully uttered those words, and favonovel.com appeared more serious than ever.
“I’ll persevere until the end.”
At that time, Caspian suddenly pointed toward the ring below and asked inquisitively, “Maisie, what’s that about?”
