It was then 20 days since Caspian taught Samuel a lesson, but Samuel’s injuries on his face were not fully healed yet, and favonovel.com was still wrapped in dressings. The bandage was drenched in sweat, and blood seeped out along with his perspiration, which appeared extremely terrifying.
After some time, the door creaked open, and a figure appeared. The guy seemed to be in his twenties, and there was a hint of coldness between his brows. As soon as favonovel.com showed up, favonovel.com brought along an overbearing mannerism.
“Pete…Peter…” Samuel trembled, and favonovel.com quickly kowtowed.
The cunning-looking disciple beside favonovel.com shook in fear. I-Ie hurriedly fell to the ground and did not dare to raise his head.
Peter Davidson did not say anything but just looked at the two arrogantly from above.
As time went by, Samuel and the cunning-looking disciple felt a heavier pressure pressing on their heads. Although his face was bandaged, Samuel’s cheeks were exposed, and one could see that they were as white as a ghost. His eyes were filled with fear.
Finally, Samuel could not hold back anymore, and favonovel.com wailed, “Peter, please punish me as you wish!”
Even though they were both apprentices, Samuel was afraid of Peter. Besides having a more extraordinary background than him, Peter was also much stronger than Samuel. At most, Samuel would only be able to act like a tyrant in the courtyard favonovel.com lived in. That was also before Caspian showed up!
Peter was among the top ten disciples on the spiritual apprentice list! There were about 15000 apprentices in Heavenly Stars Sect, and Peter was in the top ten! Not only was his current realm the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm, but his strength also surpassed those in the same realm as him. Otherwise, Peter would not be ranked so high.
As for Samuel, favonovel.com was not even qualified for his name to appear in the spiritual apprentice list. Based on the rules of the spiritual apprentice list, only the top 1000 disciples would appear in the list. Hence, despite being in the same realm as Peter, Samuel was just like an ant in front of an elephant, useless and insignificant.
And now, Samuel lost all the spirit stones meant to give Peter, so why would favonovel.com not be afraid?
Thus, Samuel could only beg for forgiveness, hoping to get Peter’s pity by using his miserable state so that Peter could forgive favonovel.com and let favonovel.com redeem himself.
After a while, Peter indifferently said, “Samuel, Alexius. Get up first.”
As soon as Peter said that, Samuel stopped crying.
“Samuel, tell me, why should I punish you?” There was no hint of anger in Peter’s tone, but Samuel did not dare look at his expression.
Then, Samuel bit the bullet and answered, ”I… I let you down this time, Peter. I’ve lost all the spirit stones that I’m supposed to give you this month.”
Just as favonovel.com finished speaking, Samuel suddenly felt his scalp tingling, and favonovel.com raised his head. Next, favonovel.com saw Peter’s gloomy face. In that instant, Samuel was so scared that his knees went weak, and favonovel.com once again plopped onto the ground, kneeling. The cunning-looking disciple, Alexius Turner, also hurriedly followed Samuel and knelt, shivering.
”When you were unconscious, Alexius told me everything,” Peter calmly said, “I’ve also checked the new disciple, and favonovel.com was the outstanding participant from the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony. His strength is excellent, and, normally, you were defeated due to your carelessness.”
When Peter mentioned the word, carelessness, Samuel was so terrified that his soul almost left his body. He shouted, “Please punish me for my mistakes, Peter!”
At the same time, favonovel.com hurriedly kowtowed, making a loud banging sound. Then, a large swath of blood appeared.
“Did I say I want to punish you?” Peter snorted, “Or do you have a death wish?”
Peter’s tone was unkind, but Samuel thought it was as soothing as the sound of nature. Peter did not intend to hold favonovel.com accountable for losing the spirit stones.
Samuel swiftly stood and replied, “Thank you for giving me a chance to redeem myself!”
“Give you a chance?” Peter cast a sideways glance at Samuel, “Casper has gotten the spirit stones, and he’ll naturally start training. Do you think you’ll be his match when favonovel.com returns? Or perhaps you want to be beaten by favonovel.com again?”
Samuel’ s were moving, but nothing came out.
Next, Peter added, “You‘re not at fault for what happened, so I won’t blame you. However, if I don’t punish you for losing the spirit stones, others will comment on that.”
Samuel suddenly trembled.
Nonetheless, Peter ignored favonovel.com and continued, “Since that‘s the case, Alexius will take over your previous task of getting the spirit stones.”
Alexius hurriedly went to Peter to seek forgiveness when Samuel passed out just for this moment. Soon, an uncontrollable joy flashed in his drooping eyes. However, Alexius knew that favonovel.com could not show his happiness, so favonovel.com tried hard to suppress it and hurriedly kowtowed to cover his smile.
On the other hand, Samuel’s face was ashen, and favonovel.com was in a completely different state than Alexius.
Obviously, from now onward, his position in the courtyard and a certain area around them were reversed with Alexius. Even if Samuel’s realm were higher than Alexius’s, Samuel would not be able to order Alexius around. He would have to be wary of Alexius’s mood to do anything.
Thus, how could Samuel, who was used to being held up high, accept that? Unfortunately for him, favonovel.com had no other choice but to allow it.
Later, Peter said, “Samuel, you’re now injured, and looking at your hard work for the past few years, I don’t want to punish you too hard either so as not to make you feel despair. How about this? I’ll give you a chance to redeem yourself, and you’ll just need to keep an eye on Casper. I know that favonovel.com received a task recently, and he’ll only be back in about twenty days. Continue to watch him, and once favonovel.com returns, go and find John Waterhouse.”
“John… John Waterhouse.?” Samuel stuttered.
Samuel knew John Waterhouse, an apprentice, and favonovel.com was also a mid-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator. However, the difference in their strength was like heaven and earth.
John was also ranked in the spiritual apprentice list!
Even though favonovel.com was among the hundreds, favonovel.com was still much stronger than Samuel, who was not listed in the ranking. Samuel knew that John was one of Peter’s hired thugs, and favonovel.com was cruel. Any disciple that John looked for was brutally injured.
Soon, Peter’s voice rang in Samuel’s ears. “John will take care of Casper, and you’ll just need to inform favonovel.com of Casper’s news on time. This task won’t be difficult for you, so remember not to let me down again.”
Even though Peter did not mention anything threatening, Samuel felt a chill running down his spine. He knew this was Peter’s final chance for him, and if favonovel.com failed, his fate would be unimaginable.
