“Yes, I am the new Core Disciple!” Su Mo nodded and passed his identification tag to Elder Zheng.

Elder Zheng took over the identification tag and after he had checked it, he said, “We have three types of rewards, namely martial arts, weapon, and Spiritual Crystals. You can choose from one of these three!”

“I would like to have the Spiritual Crystals!” Su Mo said. He straight away chose the Spiritual Crystals and did not even bother to enquire about the levels of the martial arts and weapons that he could select from.

He did not need either of those two things, but he did need to have more Spiritual Crystals.

“There are 10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals here!” Elder Zheng took out a storage ring and handed it over to Su Mo.

Su Mo was shocked when he heard that. Although he could not do much with 10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals, it was a nice sum for a reward.

“Thank you, Elder!” Su Mo cupped his fist at the elder after he had stowed the storage ring away, and turned around to walk out.

After taking a few steps, Su Mo suddenly stopped moving. He turned around to look at Lu Gang and said in a cold voice, “If I hear you spouting nonsense again, I will cut out your tongue!”

Having said that, Su Mo walked out of the Sect Hall.

“Curse him!” Lu Gang was enraged when he heard what Su Mo had said. He nearly struck at Su Mo, at the mercy of his short temper.

Cut out his tongue?

That was the greatest joke that he had ever heard!

Su Mo is just a Rank 8 Martial Emperor Realm martial artist and he is behaving so presumptuously in front of him! He is not showing any regard for him!

If they were not in the Sect Hall with the elder around, he would have already taught Su Mo a lesson.

Cold light surged in Lu Gang’s eyes and he decided that he would look for an opportunity to teach Su Mo a lesson. If he did not do so, he would not be appeased.

The other disciples in the Sect Hall stuck out their tongues, shocked. Although Su Mo had just joined the Sect, he was already behaving so presumptuously!

He must be unaware of Lu Gang’s background, if not, he would not have behaved so arrogantly toward him!

Lu Gang was one of the most powerful people among the Core Disciples of Path Sect. There were not more than five people in Path Sect whose strength surpassed Lu Gang’s.

Many of them shook their heads. Since Su Mo had offended Lu Gang, he would have to suffer in the future.

After Su Mo left the Sect Hall, he did not return to his courtyard but headed toward Elder Feng Guang’s abode.

He had to look for Feng Guang to ask him about the Fight meet. Earlier on, Su Mo had heard Lu Gang and the rest talking about heading to Sun Moon Tribe to take part in the Fight meet.

He would not miss out on any opportunity to go to Sun Moon Tribe.

Su Mo was not sure where Feng Guang lived. He stopped one of the disciples and got Feng Guang’s address from him.

He soon came to the gate of a beautiful, small palace. After he knocked on the door, he shouted, saying, “Elder Feng, this is Su Mo!”

There was not a sound in the palace and after a while, the gate opened. Feng Guang had put on a priest robe, showing his big tummy, and he looked unhappy.

A beautiful young girl, about 20 years of age, was standing beside him.

When Su Mo saw her, he was stunned. The girl was not properly dressed and her ears were red. She was breathing quickly, and she had a strange expression on her face.

Jeeze! Su Mo was speechless. He was shocked to discover that Elder Feng Guang was having an unusual relationship with the female disciple.

As an elder of Path Sect, Feng Guang had behaved immorally. He was having an affair with the female disciple even though he was a priest.

“Oh, Su Mo! Why are you here?” Feng Guang coughed and pretended to sound serious.

“Elder Feng, I have something to ask you!” Su Mo replied. He looked calm and acted as though he did not see the female disciple.

He was not interested in Feng Guang’s affair as it did not concern him.

“All right!”

Feng Guang said with a nod. He then turned to look at the female disciple and asked, “Do you remember what I taught you about the theory of martial arts?”

“Yes, I remember!” The female disciple replied in a sweet voice.

“Good. You can go back and meditate on it!” Feng Guang waved his hand and the female disciple left.

Su Mo watched Feng Guang’s pretentious acts and laughed within himself. Teach her about martial arts? He must be kidding! However, Su Mo had no intention to expose him.

Feng Guang then invited Su Mo to his palace and they sat opposite each other.

“Su Mo, what would you like to know? Feel free to ask me. I will tell you whatever I know!” Feng Guang said with a smile. Although he was angry at Su Mo for disturbing him, he knew that Su Mo had Saint Zhen Xian to back him up and thus he dared not offend him.

“Elder Feng, I have heard that Path Sect will be organizing a Fight meet. May I know what it’s all about?” Su Mo asked.

“Oh, the Fight meet! Do you want to participate in it?” Feng Guang asked. He had thought that it was something important! Su Mo was simply enquiring about the Fight meet!

“I just wish to find out more about it.” Su Mo replied.

When Feng Guang heard that, he pondered for a while before saying, “This Fight meet is meant for the Core Disciples from the seven big forces to spar with one another. Sun Moon Tribe will reward those who enter the top 10!”

“Will the venue of the Fight meet be at Sun Moon Tribe?” Su Mo asked. He was not concerned with the rewards, but he was concerned with the location!

“Yes. As this Fight meet is organized by the Sun Moon Tribe, it will be held in the Tribe.” Feng Guang nodded.

When Su Mo heard that, he was elated. It would be a great opportunity for him to get into Sun Moon Tribe.

Although Su Mo wanted to get into Sun Moon Tribe, he could not do anything with so many people watching him. However, he could at least have the opportunity to meet Qingxuan.

“When will the Fight meet take place?” Su Mo asked.

“On the 10th of the following month!” Feng Guang replied.

When Su Mo heard that, he counted the days and realized that it was about a month away.

He had decided to go to Sun Moon Tribe to participate in the Fight meet.

“Su Mo, are you thinking of participating in the Fight meet?” Feng Guang asked Su Mo as he looked at him with an astonished look.

“Yes. Do I need to register for it?” Su Mo nodded and asked.

“You can forget about it!”

When Feng Guang heard his reply, he waved his hand and said, “Although this is a small-scale Fight meet, the seven big forces will only select those Core Disciples who are at Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm. You are only at Rank 8 and thus you do not qualify for it!”

Feng Guang straight away told Su Mo that he was not qualified to participate in the Fight meet and he had no qualms about hurting his pride. He knew that Su Mo had just joined the Sect and was anxious to prove himself.

“Did you not say that there is still one more month to the Fight meet? I may have advanced to Rank 9 by then!” Su Mo said with a smile.

Although Su Mo did not have the confidence that he could break through to Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm within a month, he met the prerequisites to participate in the Fight meet, given his current strength.

Even if he was unable to breakthrough to Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm after one month, he would ask Saint Zhen Xian to make the necessary arrangements for him to take part in the Fight meet.

Since Saint Zhen Xian knew his capabilities, he would not refuse to help him. Moreover, given Saint Zhen Xian’s status and position, he could easily get it done.

“Breakthrough? Do you think it is so easy to have a breakthrough?” Feng Guang shook his head and his fleshy cheeks jiggled. It was not easy to have a breakthrough when one had advanced to the higher rank of the Martial Emperor Realm.

Even an outstanding genius would to take a long time to stabilize his strength when he was at a higher rank before he could make any further advancement.
