Chapter 472 - Fifth Elders Disciple (2/2)

Just then his door was knocked on once more.

”Who's outside?” he wondered and stood up while looking at his talisman. The message was from his master who told him to come and meet him as soon as he could.

'That idiot is calling me? He never calls me anymore after telling me to hide from the public eye as much as I can,' he thought.

He took out his badge and put it on the wooden block next to the door. The door opened and suddenly someone pushed it open from outside to walk in.

”Huh? O— Master, what are you doing here?” he was surprised to see his master, the 5th elder here. ”I thought you wanted me to meet you at your place.”

”That was over an hour ago,” the fifth elder said in an annoyed voice.

'The hell is wrong with this idiot?' the disciple thought.

”Are you aware of what has happened in the sect?” the fifth elder asked.

”Uh… no, I was cultivating,” he said.

”The Sect Leader's disciple is back and took the 3rd rank. He defeated someone in the 3rd Mind Tempering realm,” the fifth elder said.

”So? That's not hard at all,” the disciple said.

”Tha- that's not hard?” the elder said with an astounding face. ”How high is your cultivation base to—”

Finally, he checked his disciple's cultivation base and suddenly shut up. ”S-so high?” he said in surprise.

”Of course it is,” the disciple said. ”You told me to cultivate in secret. This is what I've been doing all this time.”

”Bu-But you were just at the start of Meridian Tempering realm not 2 months ago,” the elder said.

'Yeah, well I would've been much higher if my parents let me play it as much as I wanted. Now that I've got my own place, I was able to finally cultivate without all the nagging,' he thought.

”So, what are you doing here, master? It can't be that you want me to take down this sect leader's disciple right?” he asked.

”What? Yes, that's what i—”

The fifth elder lost his train of thought again as he checked his disciple's cultivation base once again. 'How is this possible?' he couldn't help but think.

The disciple scoffed at his master's dumbfounded face and said, ”So you want me to go challenge him tomorrow?”

The fifth elder was still a little distracted, but he quickly gathered his thoughts and looked back towards his disciple.

”I did come here to see if you could challenge him but turns out you are far stronger now than I had imagined. So… change of plans,” the fifth elder said.

”You have someone else to challenge.”

The disciple got curious as well.

”Who?”
