Chapter 413 The Opposite Bank Of The River (1/2)

Darren shrugged casually, even though Timothy and Abelard were eagerly waiting for his response. Right from the start, Darren had hidden his real cultivation base. Although he had unintentionally exposed it to them, he wasn't worried. He believed that the two were trustworthy friends, and hence, he would not be at risk if they knew such a secret.

”I have been a little slow in improving my cultivation base. So, my cultivation base is at the peak of the primary stage of the Wonder Realm,” Darren responded calmly as he revealed his real cultivation base. As a result, Timothy and Abelard soon realized that he was telling the truth about his cultivation base.

”Oh, my God! You are at the primary stage of the Wonder Realm,”

Timothy and Abelard exclaimed excitedly. Then they rushed to Darren and put their arms on his shoulders.

Darren was speechless. One of the reasons why he hid his real cultivation base was that he didn't want people to make a fuss about it. When Darren didn't react, the two friends began to talk with greater excitement.

”You are a miracle! Oh, no, to be more exact, you are a living legend. We are lucky to be friends with a living legend!”

”Abnormal! It's just far too abnormal. I can't imagine how strong you are going to be when you reach the Grand Realm in the future!”

The two surrounded Darren and continued to speak enthusiastically, their faces flushed with excitement. Never had they met a young warrior with such tremendous potential in martial arts.

”Come on, guys! Stop it! I am not as excited as you guys. I don't know why you are so astounded,” Darren replied as he rolled his eyes. Then he casually shook off their hands from his shoulders.

”How can we not be excited? You are a rare genius, the likes of which ordinary people are lucky to encounter once in a million years. We can't believe that we had the chance to meet you and become your friends. Isn't it reasonable for us to be thrilled for a while?” Abelard said with a grin as he tapped Darren on the shoulder.

When Darren studied Timothy's and Abelard's expressions, he observed genuine happiness. For a moment, he thought they could be his true friends. After all, it had been Darren's experience that people wanted to either please him or use him once they learned of his true potential for martial arts. And yet, Timothy and Abelard's attitude toward him had not changed after learning about his real cultivation base level. Darren had expected to sense false respect and patronization from them. However, they just showed their true feelings.

This convinced Darren that they regarded him as their good friend. They made friends with him because they liked him, not because of his real strength and potential.

Once the excitement died, Timothy regained his composure and then suggested, ”Guys, I think we've had enough rest. If we don't go to the opposite bank of the river now, I am afraid that we will miss the war,”
