Chapter 16 Shock (2/2)
”Perfect comprehension of five levels? Wow!” they exclaimed.
”How incredible! Even the young master Nicholas only had high-level comprehension for the first few layers. Darren got a perfect comprehension on all of them!”
”Am I dreaming?”
The formerly quiet training ground suddenly started to grow noisy.
Seeing this, the Chief Elder's vision was suddenly blurred and his lips started trembling.
”He...” The Chief Elder wanted to speak but could not seem to find the words.
The other families in the Chu clan were also in a state of shock, especially Evan's family.
”Brother, how can this little bastard be so talented? Would you know if he cheated?” Evan's mother asked Stan.
Stan's brows were wrinkled but there was nothing he could say. He knew that Darren could not have cheated.
On stage, the three so-called geniuses were the most dumbfounded of them all.
The disciples of Ilmen Sect were very excited. Darren's achievement of doing five layers of perfect comprehension was definitely a sign of his genius. They made the right decision of going to the Chu Clan.
Jimmy, the leader, seemed to be the most pleased. ”I did not expect Chu to have such a genius. Darren will have a very promising future!”
Jimmy was an excellent disciple who joined Ilmen Sect with a level nine talent of the Yellow Degree. At that time, he only achieved perfect comprehension for the first five layers. The sixth level was highly comprehended.
It seemed that Darren's martial arts talent was no worse than his.
”Brother, did you get to comprehend the sixth layer?”
Jimmy's question echoed throughout the hall turning everyone's attention back to Darren.
Jimmy just called Darren 'Brother', which meant that Darren was just invited to join the Ilmen Sect!
”Yes, Brother,” Darren replied, returning the title in acceptance.
”Brother Darren, show us!” The Ilmen Sect disciples who watched Darren were so eager to see how he did the sixth layer.
Darren then hurried to start displaying the sixth layer of the Meridians Refining Scripture.
The sixth layer of the Meridians Refining Scripture was the essence. This was more difficult to comprehend than the previous layers. In fact, it was something that even the people with the talent at level nine of Yellow Degree could not perfectly comprehend. For people like Nicholas whose talent was at seventh level or even lower levels, it would be even more difficult to comprehend.
With Darren's techniques, white fog floated above the meridians on the dummy. Darren actually turned the spiritual energy into fog.
”Ah...” Both the audience and the disciples of Ilmen Sect were in awe.
”The meridians are connected. This is definitely a perfect comprehension!”
Jimmy declared excitedly.
”Perfect comprehension, perfect comprehension!”
Bang!
Cheers broke out in the Chu’s training ground. Momentum soared.
Offstage, the strongest representatives of each family also looked dumbfounded. Why didn't they see Darren's talent before?
The Chief Elder's facial muscles twitched recalling how he oppressed Darren. Regret filled him for what he did.
”Brother, I have already reminded you that there is more to Darren than you have expected. Now, he got the chance to prove himself. How about I give him an apology on your behalf?” Abner looked at Darren. It was clear that Darren never felt like he belonged to the Chu Clan. Now, he could sense that the Chu Clan had lost him completely after what had happened today.
”Bullshit!” The Chief Elder cursed. ”I have always dealt with the Chu family matters with fairness. Why will I apologize to a young boy? He is guilty of treason for hiding his talent from the family. I will not punish him only if he makes amends by entering the Ilmen Sect!”
”Hey, brother...”
Abner said anxiously. He understood the Chief Elder well. He would never admit being wrong.
”Everybody!” Jimmy exclaimed, getting everyone's attention. ”As an elite disciple of the School of Boxing Skill in Ilmen Sect, I hereby announce that Darren no longer needs to participate in any more tests. Instead, he can directly enter the Ilmen Sect and choose a school of martial arts skill three days later.”
After the announcement, the Chu family felt all sorts of emotions.
Nicholas and other geniuses felt so defeated. The boy they looked down on just got qualified to join the Ilmen Sect even without completing all the tests! This was a big shock to them.
The others felt that the contention for the chief of Chu Clan suddenly became more complicated.
The elders of the Chu family were all resentful that they did not know how to win the heart of this super genius that just slipped through their fingers.
Darren, however, looked indifferent. He eyed the audience and looked at everyone, both friends and enemies. 'I will come back someday, ' he thought.
”Brother, the seventh layer of the Meridians Refining Scripture is too difficult. It is something I cannot fully comprehend. I need your advice,” Darren said.
”What? The seventh layer?” Jimmy asked, puzzled.
And then, he reacted. ”Ah? You...”
