After killing all those beasts, the beam of light, under the observation of the Wu Zhu students, turned into the air, shooting to another direction . It was closely followed by the eyes of the Wu Zhu students . At this time, they realized that, not far from them, there was a person sitting on a tree branch, wearing a suit of animal skin .

That’s right, that was a person! Although he was dressed like a savage, wearing only coarse skin for coverage, with his hair carelessly tied at the back, his features and physique were clearly human .

That man sat on the branch, lightly swinging . He raised his arm towards the flying light, and it turned into a sword, landing in his hand . Taking the sword that had just killed all those monsters, he sat there, shaving and observing the Wu Zhu students .

That was a flying sword! Refining State cultivators couldn’t use those swords! Seeing this, the Wu Zhu student’s dropped their jaws in shock . In the outer world, using flying swords wasn’t anything special, but the problem was this was a Closed Realm . Only Refining State Cultivators could enter this Realm, but the man could use a flying sword which meant he wasn’t a Refining State Cultivator .

“Much thanks to this Senior for your assistance . May we ask for Senior’s name? Do you have any relations with my Sect, Wu Zhu?” Sun Li finally reacted, and, with a hint of excitement, hesitantly asked .

 

For a person to use a flying sword, they had to be of at least the Foundation State . But only Refining State cultivators could enter this Realm . Yu Qing Sect? Jin Guang Sect? The strongest of the Refining State cultivators could only be defeated when running into a Foundation State cultivator . No wonder their teacher Wang Lianshan had been so confident . With a Foundation State master at their side, even if they didn’t go to find trouble with the other Sects, the overall winner of this trip into the Closed Realm would inevitably be Wu Zhu Sect .

Of course, these were only assumptions . Because of this, Sun Li was still a little hesitant . If he had taken the wrong guess, and this person wanted to work against them, then there would be a similar resolution with their own group .

 

“Senior?” The man wearing the animal skin paused the motion of his hands, seeming to think for a second, and spoke with a weird tone: “You’re not wrong . I am considered your Senior . Say it again . ”

The man didn’t just speak with a weird tone, he even spoke weird things! Sun Li and his classmates were all taken aback . But they held the lower-hand . No matter how they rejected the thought, they still had to retain a respectful facade, bowing towards the man, and calling “Senior” .

The animal-skinned man laughed loudly, and jumped down from the tree, falling like a leaf to the ground . This air technique wasn’t particularly impressive, but immediately after, a blur came about their eyes, and a large face appeared . Sun Li was startled and backed up . If he wasn’t sure that he couldn’t defeat this person, he probably would have hacked his sword at him .

“Tch,” The man wearing the animal skin did not chase him . Rather, he let out a disdainful sneer, continuing: “Really, each generation is lesser than the last . How were you chosen to enter with this little gut?”

Sun Li stabled himself . He looked disgruntled but was too afraid to express his displeasure . He could only begrudgingly say: “I have never seen such techniques . I lost my focus . My apologies to Senior . ”

“Hm, at least you have self-awareness,” Seeing Sun Li retreat so quickly, the animal-skinned man seemed a bit disappointed . Raising his gaze to the rest of the group, he seemed very displeased as he said: “Nine people . Did you already lose a person coming here?”

The Wu Zhu group naturally had nine people, because one of their participation places had been taken by Yu Qing . But this was a pretty embarrassing fact . Having been called out by the animal-skinned man, Sun Li and the other students looked a little uncomfortable .

“May I ask what Senior and Wu Zhu Sect… . ” Sun Li didn’t answer the man’s question but asked him the question of his relation with his Sect . If you are related to me and ask a question, I’ll answer you . But if you’re not related, don’t you think that you are being a little too nosy?

 

“You’re questioning me?” The animal-skinned man lightly spoke . He didn’t seem too displeased with the student’s suspicion .

It was just that, out of nowhere, Sun Li felt something cool against his throat . Looking down, he saw the beast-killing sword, floating and pressed against his neck . This scared him . He couldn’t even swallow, fearing that a slight movement would let the blade slice open his neck .

“Senior, Senior forgive me . I am only doing my duty . I cannot be sure without a clear answer . ” Sun Li said with a tremble in his voice .

“Keke, no wonder . Ten years have gone by in a flash . Ten years ago, you should have all been little kids right?” The animal-skinned man suddenly looked a little disappointed, retreating his sword . He then asked with a little more excitement: “The object Wang Lianshan told you guys to bring, take it out . ”

Having escaped the sword, Sun Li finally let out a breath . Although the man had not certified his identity, his speech had clearly exaggerated the term, “ten years” . What did “ten years” mean? Sun Li immediately thought of the fact that this Closed Realm opened once every ten years . Was the man… . .

“You, you are Senior Zhou Ming?” Before Sun Li could speak, another Wu Zhu Sect student suddenly burst out .

“Oh? There’s still someone who remembers this name?” The animal-skinned man turned to the speaker .

Not just the animal skinned man, even Sun Li and the rest of the students turned to the speaker with eyes full of curiosity . The speaker seemed unaccustomed to so much attention, hurriedly speaking: “I, I was just reading some reports before coming in . Ten years ago, during the Five Sect’s Competition, the students of our Sect encountered a strong opponent . There was a Senior Zhou Ming who, to save his brethren, died in the mouths of the beasts . They weren’t even able to bring his body out of the Closed Realm . ”

This type of story was not uncommon after the repeated entries into this Realm . There were too many things that could harm Refining State cultivators in here . No one could positively ensure the safety of those who entered . After so many years, and so many trips in, the total number of the students of the Five Sects who had died here should be in the hundreds .

Because of this, the news of Zhou Ming’s death was not noticed by many of those in the Wu Zhu Sect . Perhaps those closer to Zhou Ming would mourn him at first, but ten years were enough to lighten these feelings . Sun Li and the rest of the students had read a lot about the Realm before coming in, but who would pay attention to such detail?

“To save his brethren? This is a good excuse, did it state who I saved?” The animal-skinned man did not admit to this, but his lack of denial secured his identity .

It was a good excuse . If one were to go through the records of the Sects, most of it would report those that died in the Closed Realm as sacrificing themselves, “To save their brethren . ” It was just an empty honor given to them after death . Those that died were most important, anyway . Who would care if they were really sacrificing themselves to save others? 

As expected, that student shook his head, saying: “It, it didn’t . ”

 

“You’re really Senior Zhou Ming?” Sun Li cautiously asked .

The animal-skinned man was not angered but reached in his pocket to take out a pouch . Waving it before Sun Li and the others, he said: “Recognize this? Wang Lianshen should have let you guys bring an identical one . ”
