Chapter 119 - Divine Tempest Sect (1) (2/2)

”I am Fatty Chen, I greet master!” The Fatty kowtowed.

”I am Chef Hong, I greet master!” The chef kowtowed.

”I am Janitor Kong, I greet master!” The janitor kowtowed.

”Very good, very good… I will train them up to become formidable warriors. You may even have the chance to travel with me in the future, should you please me with your hard work and results.” Simon smiled warmly, greeting his disciples as well as addressing Wu Zhong.

”You have a strange eye for recruitment. I look forward to seeing how you train these three. As an Elder of the Divine Tempest Sect, I hope you realise that your reputation now contributes to ours, so do not be reckless.”

”I understand your advice. I will train them well and help them reach Core Formation within a month.”

”!!!”

”Master! How can we reach the fabled realm of Core Formation within a month when we cannot even progress a layer in a Foundation Building after years? Do you really have a way to make use not useless? I, Fatty Chen, will not bring dishonour to my master's name. Please instruct me! I entrust myself to you!” The fatty banged his head against the ground and exclaimed with passion.

”If I can become more than a mere chef, I can finally prove myself as a real cultivator! A chef can satisfy the immortals, but an immortal can be satisfied by the chef! I, Chef Hong, wish to follow master and become a great immortal under the heavens!”

”I am but a janitor, but I will never give up in the face of adversity! I will sweep master's enemies' blood and paint the sky red! If I can become useful, I will work as hard as I possibly can!”

Simon nodded.

The scene was good, a sunny day and midday in fact. Nothing felt out of place and these new disciples met his requirements. For now, he would test them and see if they are truly hard working.

”Good, Fatty Chen, take this cultivation art.” Simon handed the fatty a book.

”Momentous Wrecking Ball Cultivation Art!! I will train this technique with all my heart and become the greatest disciple of master!” Fatty Chen slammed his head against the ground and kowtowed again.

”Chef Hong, take this.”

”Flowing Wok Cultivation Art!! I will train this until the day I die! I promise to never embarrass Master!” Chef Hong did the exact same thing as Fatty Chen.

”Janitor Kong, take this Cultivation art.”

”Spiritual Dust Cultivation Art!! I will take your teachings to heart and become your broom! No one shall ever get away with insulting my master! I shall become your greatest disciple and never fail you!”

While all of this may seem exaggerated and plain stupid, it really wasn't. The fact is that Simon placed his trust in a bunch of useless people and decided to show them secret techniques because he valued their hard working and honest natures. To them, he was more than worthy of being their master. They would even call him grandfather despite the clear age difference. A man like Simon, they were ready to place their in.

To defy the heavens, they would work together to overcome many challenges. And the very first is their journey to Core Formation.

”Now come along. I will show you the way and bring you on my flying bullet. We shall be entering the Divine Tempest Sect within the next hour, so just hold tight and do not vomit. I do not wish for any complaints during this trip.” Wu Zhong smiled.
