Tell why you want to go with you, William still had no intention of rushing into this. You cant know if Im suitable for this mission.
Others will not work with . They say Im too much of a fanatic, Kae sneered, an odd expression on his face. Thats just an excuse for the weak-willed. Theyre cultivators destined to be diocre, unlike .
He assud this was why Kae was irritated when he took a break from training. He might have t his first grind all day, everyday cultivator. One with arrogance about his work ethic instead of humility.
Cool.
So I was the only option, William comnted, rembering the disciple who had given him an odd look. This must be why.
I wouldnt have picked a liability if you were just talented, Kae shook his head. I dont associate with ones that only rely on talent. There are plenty like that, and they all hit a ceiling before long. I have asked the elders about you and feel you may be worth my ti.
Thats why you waited for a week before contacting .
Yes. I was hasty in inviting you. Senior Lan Yang is a well-known disciple on a fast track to Elder. With him as your ntor, I made assumptions. Very happy to have them confird.
Kae might be arrogant, but he was also straightforward to the extre. There had been no hesitation when he revealed his reasons. William liked that.
However, whatever information Kae had gathered was faulty. It was not his fault, but the sect's elders seed to have a high opinion of William. It couldnt be said that much training was done to reach his current cultivation.
William mainly ate like a glutton and killed his way to where he was. However, now it seed that he needed to actually cultivate and train to gain more strength instead of taking a magic pill.
At what cultivation were the ones you partnered with in the past? William was moving closer to accepting the mission.
Almost all of them were at the middle stage Foundation Establishnt Realm. A few were at the late stage.
So I would be the first at the early stage if I accept. William didnt care too much about that. While he spectacularly lost in the spar against Lan Yang, the older cultivator was visibly surprised at the power [Force Multiplier] held.
He had confidence he could easily match most of the cultivators in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishnt Realm. Maybe even the late stage for a brief ti if need be.
Yes, but I have confidence that you and I will be successful.
William nodded slowly, almost sure that he would agree at this point. This was an accelerator for him in multiple areas. The spirit beast egg having a buffet was already a given, but it would basically be the sa to him. Every beast he killed would add to his experience points.
However, there were still a few key things he needed to find out.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
What cultivation are the spirit beasts in the beast waves? Whats the danger level for us in terms of injuries?
Almost all the beasts are in the very early stage of our realm. However, the leaders of the waves vary wildly. They are generally around the late stage, but if we get unlucky, we could et a peak stage Foundation Establishnt Realm beast.
Williams interest dropped dramatically, at least with this specific mission. He would be more than happy to pick sothing below level three.
He wasnt being overcautious. He considered it common sense to assu the leader would be in the peak stage. Always best to assu the worst and work from there.
As for injuries, there hasnt been a fatality for a few years now. I think the last happened the year before I entered the Inner Court.
That settled it. William had zero interest in taking the mission. Maybe if he had a handle on Lightning Qi, but even then, probably not.
I refuse to go to level three, William ignored Kaes heavy frown. What is the cultivation of the beasts in level two?
If this is about the possible peak stage beast, it will most likely never happen. The last occurrence was over two decades ago. Plus, the beasts are much higher quality at level three.
All good points Kae brought up. It still did nothing to convince William to change his mind. No. Youll have to find soone else if you want to take that mission.
I see, Kae sighed in frustration. The leaders at level two are a step below. At the higher end of the middle stage, with the rare ones at the late stage. As for the mob, they are reliably at the peak of Qi Gathering Realm.
That sounds much more doable, William smiled. Even with six beast waves, the mob would have little effect on his Stamina. His experience in the Shard let him know that. That ant the beast wave leaders were the only thing that would require effort.
Another option was to look in the section one lower than expert, dium or whatever it was called. But that would have been too easy. His spirit beast egg might satisfied with it, but he would gain far too few experience points. Plus, that might be too low for Kae to agree to.
At least I get to go to the Abyss again, Kae muttered to himself as he replaced the mission tablet with the one they decided on.
Oh, wait! Williams words made Kae glare at him, expecting another change of mind. I need to be healed before this. Ill make a quick trip to the clinic.
Thats it? Kae asked with suspicion, relaxing when he got a nod in reply. Then theres no need. The sect stations an Elder here to run a health check before the mission is assigned. Lets go.
That was convenient, and sensible. The sect not wanting their prized disciples to have a preventable mishap was smart.
William noticed he got looks again, this ti from many other Sentinels instead of just one. They must have gathered attention at the excessively long ti they spent arguing in the expert section.
He also noticed that while they gave him looks of pity, it was combined with a hefty dose of amusent. It was like partnering with Kae was so sort of hazing.
Interesting.
A very familiar Elder was manning the open office. Well, manning was a stretch. She was snoring quite loudly until they approached. Huh? Disciple Kae? You found a partner again!
Indeed, Elder Zhou, Kae handed her the tablet. We will be taking this.
Elder Zhou. The old woman who looked like walking-death. The one that smacked his shin with a cane and jabbed his jaw before helping to remove the impurities from his body. That Elder Zhou.
Hm, level two, Elder Zhou mumbled. Six waves. Seems fine to . Whos your partnerOh. Its you?
William gave her a small wave with an uneasy smile. She unnerved him.
Hmm, Elder Zhou looked him up and down like he was a fascinating specin to study. He hadnt forgotten that she wanted to use him as a lab rat. Good choice, Disciple Kae. This one might be as stupid as you.
William blinked at the unearned insult.
I was hoping he was. Kae nodded seriously.
Well, I need verbal confirmation. You two both accept this mission? Elder Zhou asked.
Yes, Kae agreed imdiately before looking at him.
It was then that William realized that he had to look at Kaes stats before jumping in. He avoided using the system with sect mbers, but this was now more than that.
Kae was going to be a partner in a situation where death was the slimst of possibilities. He used [Detailed Observe].
