670: Back to back shocks

Back to back shocks

For every young cultivator in the Zrochester province, becoming a personal disciple of the vagrant cultivators was a dream that never comes true.

However, when one of them was offered the personal disciple position to Levi, he was hesitating to accept it.

Even vagrant cultivators were feeling the same; however, they didn't say anything as they waited for Levi to say his reason.

"I am not from this province,"

While everyone was waiting for the reason why Levi was hesitating to accept Elder Seward's offer, Levi finally said it.

Levi felt it was better to say about his origins because after he became their personal disciple and if they learn about it, they may not like him.

Moreover, there was something he heard back in Ylercester province that Zrochester province people hated the cultivators of Ylercester province because of their pure essence of nature's environment.

"..."

"Haha"

Everyone around him became speechless for a moment before started laughing.

This 'Everyone' doesn't include Ajax as he was also puzzled at their laughing.

"Huh?"

Seeing that, Levi didn't understand why they were laughing so hard as he continued to say, "I am not joking. I am really from Ylercester province."

He thought they were laughing because he was joking. So, he said with a serious expression to make them believe.

"Everyone, stop laughing,"

The guild master stopped laughing and at the same time, he asked others to calm down and stop laughing.

Soon, it became silent as the guild master started saying, "Do you think we didn't know that?"

"What?"

Levi and Ajax both were shocked at the guild master's words because they didn't expect that.

Until now, Ajax had never introduced Levi properly to anyone and at the same time, all were very busy with their own work and no one inquired about him.

Ajax only said that Levi saved his life once and because of him, Levi was heavily injured.

However, after hearing the guild master's words they looked at him in a new light.

"Yes,"

All the vagrant cultivators nodded their heads as the guild master continued, "Do you think, anyone can enter this place without a proper background check?"

Only now, Ajax and Levi were starting to understand what the six vagrant cultivators were capable of.

'No wonder, the top powers of the Zrochester province fears them,'

Ajax silently muttered to himself as he looked at Edmond who revealed a slight smile.

"Ajax, we also know about you; however, we didn't want you to know that,"

In the next second, the guild master looked at Ajax as he said with a serious expression.

"What?"

Earlier, when the guild master said that they knew about Levi, he was shocked; however, now he started fearing and at the same time remembering his acting when he met Edmond and others, he felt a little funny.

'So, they know about my past all along,'

Ajax bitterly shook his head as he continued, "And here I am still thinking that they believed my story."

"However, we are still unable to find your exponential rise in cultivation. You can hide it pretty well, Kid,"

Noticing the bitter look on his face, the guild master revealed a slight smile as he replied to Ajax.

'At least they didn't know about the system,'

This was the only thing that made him heave a sigh of relief as he looked at the guild master without saying anything.

"We know why you said what you said when you met Edmond and others. Moreover, we all respect you a lot for staying strong and becoming stronger to take revenge on those who killed your friends,"

The guild master and others could understand why Ajax had to act that way and they all felt that Ajax was not an ordinary young man because within no time, he had reached the level 2 elite commander realm and at the same time, he also became a summoner.

"Guild master, you are..."

Ajax rubbed the back of his head as he didn't know what to say.

"You don't have to say anything. Just stay like how you always did," the guild master didn't allow Ajax to finish his words as he asked him not to say anything.

Moreover, they even know about Justice and Neil. After knowing that they were from the assassin sect, they asked Edmond and Udo to keep an eye on them. 

However, after observing Justice for months, they didn't suspect him of a spy. Still, they kept an eye on him and the moment he does something suspicious, he would be killed without any mercy.

After that, he looked at Levi before saying, "So, what about you? Do you want to become his personal disciple or not?"

"You don't hate the cultivators of Ylercester province?"

Levi was still skeptical about them as he asked them once again.

"What is there to hate? They just have some good cultivation conditions; however, as long as we work a little harder we can catch up to them,"

Seward, who stayed silent until now spoke with a nonchalant expression on his face.

"Thank you for your explanation, Elders" After hearing the guild master and Elder Seward's words, Levi revealed a smile as he thanked them.

In the next second, he looked at Elder Sewards and said, "I am very happy to become your personal disciple, Elder Seward."

"Good,"

Elder Seward nodded his head.

"Brat, you came come and stand beside me,"

Unlike other vagrant cultivators, Elder Ramon didn't ask the participant; instead, he directly ordered one of the five remaining participants to come and stand behind him.

"Yes, Master,"

The participant, who Elder Ramon called didn't mind at all as he directly called Ramon as his master before rushing towards him.

He was none other than Justice's little brother, Neil. Before they could enter the secret realm, Elder Ramon liked Neil's stubbornness. So, he directly chose him as his disciple even though he didn't show any outstanding performance in any of the trials.

'Finally, he got selected,'

Seeing that, Justice felt relieved as he was praying heavens from the beginning that his little brother should be chosen by one of the vagrant cultivators and finally it happened.

Justice never bothered about anything except for his little brother's future and following Ajax's orders.  1

Since the first one is completed, he could finally focus on the second one without worrying about anything.

"So, there are still four participants left,"

Elder Ramon didn't move his eyes from Ajax as he felt the moment he moved his eyes away, he would be selected by other vagrant cultivators and at the same time, he silently thought, "I spent a lot on my trial and I need to get him as my personal disciple."

As for the remaining four participants, they were none other than Ajax, Justice, Paulin and Heavenly raven.

Among the four, Heavenly raven was very tense because he was the only one of his brothers and sister that was left behind. So, he felt each passing second as an eternity.

'Heavens, please don't abandon me,'

He continuously prayed heavens hoping to get selected by one of the vagrant cultivators.

The guild master looked at the four cultivators and started pointing his fingers to select his personal disciples.
