Capítulo 935: Chapter 340: The Fiery Duelist (Part 2)
The reason why the Martial Monk was not surprised by her cultivation speed was revealed more than a year ago.
That evening, while she was resting in the palace and was almost asleep, she was suddenly awakened by an overwhelming aura emanating from the neighboring room.
She almost thought it was an Ancient Dragon attacking at night, so she rushed into her master’s room without even putting on her shoes.
She only saw the Martial Monk sitting calmly, and he replied to her with ease:
“I just had an insight and touched the Extre Realm—but it’s too conspicuous, not conducive to searching for the Dragon King, so I retreated again.”
The Extre Realm—what is now known as the Ultimate Shift.
Subsequently, the Hero, who began her pursuit, learned an even more astonishing fact:
More than five years ago, when the Martial Monk who had cultivated for two hundred years descended the mountain, he was actually just at the legendary level, like her.
But on the first day off the mountain, he broke through to the Palace.
Then on the way north, his strength continued to grow without any bottlenecks.
Until more than a year ago, he reached the Ultimate Shift.
And now, although the aura of the Martial Monk remains unchanged, the Hero can vaguely perceive that he has grown much stronger.
Despite having the groundwork of two hundred years of cultivation, such terrifying speed of improvent left even the Hero, a young girl, only able to sigh in admiration.
If he had erged sooner to fight alongside the predecessors, perhaps there wouldn’t have been a need to seal the Corrupted Phoenix.
‘Huh? Say that again!?’
But if that were the case, perhaps no one would have been able to stop the dragon disaster in the Northern Territory…
Human civilization has endured through many random chances and fortuitous events.
Ignoring the protest from another part of herself, the Hero lightly coughed:
“Anyway, Master, it’s almost lunch ti now, let’s cut short…”
Although this is just a performance in the theater, approaching the master makes the scene infinitely close to reality.
From another angle, it can also be considered gaining more attention from the theater.
The Hero is not unwilling to demonstrate her charm, but competing in front of a large audience sowhat contradicts her logistics policy.
She is not so battle maniac.
But this ti, contrary to his usual agreeable nature, the Martial Monk did not accept her proposal.
He touched his bald head, frowned slightly, pondered for a mont, then slowly spoke:
“Hmm, since that’s the case, I’ll suppress my strength to about the sa level as yours.”
“Oh—?” The Hero’s eyes suddenly sharpened.
Sa level—she certainly didn’t think she would lose.
But her expression quickly beca conflicted again.
If she really wins against her master, the impact might not be very good, since he is now the emperor…
Moreover, why is the master so insistent on sparring with her this ti?
She certainly knows the Martial Monk has the ability to adjust his own level, but such adjustnts are not done casually, and to deal with the Dragon Beast, while the master hasn’t unlocked the power of the Ultimate Shift, he has always maintained the realm of the Palace.
Although temporarily adjusting to the legendary level wouldn’t pose too great a risk, it ultimately doesn’t align with the master’s usual way of acting.
“You child, you’re already thinking about what to do after winning.”
Seeing the Hero fall into contemplation, the Martial Monk shook his head and smiled, calmly saying:
“Don’t think too much, it’s just a competition.
“Moreover—the country needs hope beyond just .”
The Hero suddenly looked up.
Facing those peaceful light purple eyes, the girl was slightly startled.
[The turning point is about to arrive, the soul of the Martial Monk is nearing awakening, the Hero will perform a special judgnt]

‘…Master has sensed sothing.’
‘This old bald head isn’t easy to deal with; otherwise, he wouldn’t have decisively self-sealed that night.’
‘Hmm.’
eting those serious and clear eyes for several seconds, the Hero’s heart was montarily filled with a myriad of emotions, a mix of flavors.
‘Master… What the master ant by ‘this country’, it’s probably not just referring to here.’
Once a master, forever a father. —The Hero had read in books that in the days before professional systems were perfected, the relationship between masters and disciples sotis was even closer than blood ties.
To this day, this traditional relationship, though rare, has not completely disappeared.
Although the Martial Monk has never demanded such standards from the Hero, the Hero still harbors respect and affection for him.
‘After all, this bald head is more fatherly than our actual dad.’
‘Father also taught many things, only… It’s just the personality is different, hmm.’
Even though this is just a stage performance, even the next performance restart, the master will forget who she is.
But the ti they spent together, and the guidance he provided, were undeniably genuine.
Thus, the young girl slowly nodded, and solemnly said:
“Since Master has said so—let’s do it then.”

“Very good.” Seeing this, the Martial Monk nodded in satisfaction.
“Next, let’s head to the central plaza. Although this place isn’t small, it still feels a bit cramped.
“You all, go and notify the townspeople, have everyone co watch the duel, and prepare for the feast at the plaza tonight.”
The Martial Monk instructed with an imperial deanor, and the apprentices excitedly ran to spread the word.
“Master…”
Upon hearing the Martial Monk’s decisive arrangents, the Hero showed a deceived expression, cheeks puffing slightly.
Thought it was going to be just a casual spar, but it turns out the whole town will be watching!
No choice, the promise has already been made… Besides, the more the rrier, it’s lively.
Not to ntion brother and father, but why even Master prefers to use fights instead of talks for communication.
The Hero suddenly pondered for a mont, then sighed in relief.
Hmm… thinking about it, indeed, throwing fists seems more effective than reasoning.
The elders’ way does seem reasonable, no issues with that.
“Alright! Let everyone witness the fruits of my training!”
The young girl akimboed, chest puffed out, a curvature forming at the corners of her lips, and her erald green eyes sparkled with a desire to try.
“Also, if I embarrass myself later, Master shouldn’t bla , okay?”
“Little girl.”
Even though the young girl was considered tall, the Martial Monk extended his large hand and easily ruffled her long hair.
“Hey—” The Hero exclaid while covering her head, yet her eyes couldn’t hide the smile.
Amidst her dissatisfied protest, the Martial Monk laughed heartily and turned around, his broad silhouette gradually walking away.
[Hero triggers Special Event: Ancient and Modern Showdown LV67]
In the illusory theater, the young girl traversed ti and space, becoming an apprentice to the ancient Legendary Monk.
Now, the stage is about to fall. To honor the Martial Monk’s trust, the young girl will face him in direct combat.

Regardless of winning or losing, this battle will beco a valuable experience for her.
