5 Beginner Novice Level (1/2)
”Very well!”
A gentle and pleasant voice came from the mouth of the master of Purple Bamboo Forest. There was a faint hint of admiration and mockery in it. ”I would like to see whether the Murong Clan lives up to its name in terms of their martial arts, just like they did with their courage! My dear sword servant, give instructions to this boy.”
The sword servant, who had not been doing anything in the sword pavilion, immediately moved forward. He did not show any hesitation even if his opponent was just a boy. However, once the sword servant walked out of the pavilion, many players outside the forest gained a deep impression of the player called Happy.
However, they were in for a disappointment.
The eloquent boy with the extraordinary bearing was even weaker than they were. The sword servant only used two simple skills before Happy was sent flying. No sign of the strong fighting against the strong could be seen.
”Thank you for your lesson. I will come again.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Happy stood up. He did not feel defeated at all. He wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed. Before the other could speak, he quickly walked away while the crowd looked at him with gazes mixed with derision and pleasure derived from his misery.
The sword servant stood dumbly on the spot for a long time while staring at the boy's thin back. He then turned around and returned to the pavilion.
”You actually needed to use two skills against a child?”
”I understand my mistake.”
The master of Purple Bamboo Forest could not help but lament. ”It is fine. This child is not ordinary. That bearing and those mannerisms… If I did not have an understanding toward the disciples of the Murong Clan, I would have thought a successor disciple from the Murong Clan had come over to learn our martial arts. When he goes back, the Murong Clan Lady will definitely not let this matter slide. Continue fighting against him and grant him instruction…”
”But master, why...”
”You do not need to ask.” The master of Purple Bamboo Forest seemed to know what the sword servant wanted to ask, so she chuckled softly. ”You will not be able to defend against the people from the Murong Clan learning your craft. Since that is the case, it doesn't matter if we let them learn a few tricks. But the child is quite interesting as well. He actually came forth and told us his intentions honestly… He is very interesting.”
Naturally, Happy knew nothing about this.
When he returned to Murong Mansion, the white-clad Murong Clan Lady was waiting for him in the backyard.
”My lady, I did not manage to get the purple bamboos. Please punish me.”
”You fought against the sword servant of Purple Bamboo Forest?” The Murong Clan Lady cast a glance at Happy's dusty clothes and frowned slightly. ”Did you mention the name of our clan?”
”Yes.”
Happy narrated his encounter in Purple Bamboo Forest, and the woman nodded repeatedly.
”You did well. You had the bearing the Murong Clan should have. By the way, you said that the sword servant delivered two strikes? Show them to me,” said the Murong Clan Lady with a tone that allowed no refusal.
”Yes.”
Happy had already understood the general gist of the quest.
The Murong Clan Lady intended to investigate the foundations and skills of the Purple Bamboo Forest master through him when he fought against her sword servant. As long as he could remember the skills, he had an idea of what would happen next. The Murong Clan Lady should slowly teach him some skills that would specifically counter the sword servant's skills.
