Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao
Chapter 143 Aftermath: Making An Attempt
================¶¶================
Crixus was teleported out of the sword tower, he took a look at the contents of the spatial ring.
'Such treasures!'
His eyes glowed with awe at the level of the Martial Arts Technique he received, not to mention the cultivation resources within.
'With this, it will not be a problem for my base power to go beyond the Martial King Realm and enter into the realm of Quasi-Martial Emperor before the tournament!'
There is a great chasm between the peak Martial King Realm and the Martial Emperor Realm. But in between them, there is a realm called the Quasi-Martial Emperor Realm.
The Quasi-Martial Emperor Realm is a state that is half a step into the Martial Emperor Realm.
Due to certain restrictions and degradation of the Southern Continent's essence energy, the resources needed to advance to the Martial Emperor realm are extremely scarce.
Therefore, one can only break through in a 'specific' environment and that is where the Grand Martial Arts Tournament comes in.
Almost all powerhouses at the Martial Emperor Realm and beyond were once the best cultivators who achieved great standing in the martial arts tournament.
Only an extremely few cases broke through by using other means. But the thing was that those who did were weaker than the others who got the benefit of the Grand Martial Arts Tournament.
Crixus quickly claimed ownership of the spatial ring, which he found to also be a defensive treasure and one which was stronger than his current defensive artifact.
After that, he walked out confidently out of the sword tower as his ears were filled with the cheers and words of praise and adoration of his fellow disciples.
He paid them no heed, waved his sleeve casually, and flew away with great speed to the shock of many.
"Oh, my heavens! He can already fly so adeptly?!"
"It appears that senior brother has comprehended some of the mysteries of the Martial Emperor Realm."
"It seems it will only be a matter of time before we have another Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse and a very young one at that."
The younger disciples could only exclaim in awe, but the older and more knowledgeable ones knew what this signified.
"He is not far from the Quasi-Martial Emperor Realm!"
Soon, the news of Crixus' advancement in the sword tower reached every inch of the sect within an hour, leaving the entire sect shocked and excited.
It wasn't just that, the insane growth of the Invincible Sword Faction members stunned many also. As many disciples rushed to become part of Arthur's faction.
ƥαṇdαsηθνε|·ƈθm They did not do this because of admiration of their leader but purely for benefit's sake. But that quickly changed when one final piece of news was spread.
"Invincible becomes a Core Disciple!"
"He defeated the 8th stage Grand Martial Realm disciple, Gregor in an instant?!"
"The top ten core disciples rankings have changed, Invincible is ranked Ninth!"
This news for some reason shocked them more than Crixus' feat at the sword tower.
"So he had been hiding his real strength all this while?"
"It has to be, otherwise would you say he broke through all the way from the Spirit Condensation Realm to the Grand Martial Realm in just half a year?"
"That's true. But one can not deny his talent as every core disciple is at least twenty years old and I heard Invincible is no more than sixteen."
"Damn! Do we now have the best genius on the continent? This beats that genius of the Hartfield Royal Academy."
"Finally, we have something to boast about in front of those arrogant folks."
"Yeah, it appears the heavens have blessed our sect in this era."
Discussions concerning the recent events filled the sect and many were motivated to train harder which led to a few breakthroughs here and there.
Even the other core disciples in the top ten felt a wave of pressure.
They saw the battle in the Core Disciple battle arena and they knew fully well that Invincible did not use his full strength and only used the least of it to defeat Gregor.
That was an ability only the top three core disciples could do!
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Meanwhile, at the elder's meeting, they had concluded the matter of the prime disciple.
"The matter concerning the selection and appointment of the sect's prime disciple will be left untouched for now. The most powerful in the Grand Martial Arts Tournament will become the Prime Disciple."
This conclusion was decided by the sect leader himself. Who revealed that he was out of seclusion and even gave a hint of his increased cultivation to reign into schemes among the upper echelons of the sect.
Still, he made no mention of Arthur's real identity and kept that part to himself.
Besides, he was also instructed by the Emperor to keep Arthur's identity as a prince a secret until Arthur reveals it by himself if he ever does.
For the next few days, nothing important took place, except a certain announcement.
"The Heavenly Sword Secret Realm will be opened in three months!"
This news caused many to be excited, mostly the inner disciples and above.
The outer court disciples are not allowed entry except the top ten ranked disciples of the outer court.
So Arthur would be going in with Balor and the others.
Also, his faction had experienced a sharp increase in the number of inner court disciples that joined.
Especially, three people that he was familiar with.
But more than that, the Invincible Sword Faction finally has some Core Disciples in its rank, raising the prestige of the faction.
More core disciples would have joined but they were looking at the bigger picture of the schemes within the sect.
Those that joined Arthur's faction were people who did not care about such schemes and merely felt admiration for Arthur, and they also believed in his future.
All these things happened in just a week but Arthur was busy with something else, as he had already allocated all the matters of his faction to Luke.
Although Luke was still weak compared to the stronger disciples, no one looked down on him because of his standing with Arthur.
At this moment, Arthur was meditating seriously as he was, for the umpteenth time attempting to access and wield the power of the gems.
