"What is it that you wanted to ask, Master Sara?" Lewis asked as he turned his full attention to her.
"Master Lewis, I thought you said that the disciple named Zachary Zi was injured?" Sara asked frankly.
"That is correct," Lewis replied as he nodded his head.
"What kind of injury is it?" Sara continued.
"Hmm..." Lewis hesitated. Since the injury was from a fight among disciples, telling the truth could bring
shame to the Welkin Sect.
"It's okay if it is sensitive. I just want to know how serious his injury is." Sara said, sensing that Lewis
was reluctant to share.
"It's rather serious. Five of his meridians have been broken. Actually he is a talented disciple. If he
didn't suffer from such a severe injury, he would surely be one of the best disciples of our Welkin Sect,"
Lewis sighed, obviously feeling sorry for the sect's loss.
"Five meridians?" Sara seemed to be taken aback. Just now at the training ground, Zachary didn't
appear like five of his meridians were broken. If he indeed suffered from such an injury, he wouldn't be
able to use his martial energy at all. In hindsight, Zachary didn't really make any move that required a
substantial amount of martial energy. That was one possibility behind it.
"Master Sara, may I know why you are concerned with Zachary's injury?" Lewis and the stewards were
curious about Sara's question. They didn't think that she'd be curious about his injury at all. And since
Zachary was quite offensive the day before, they thought that her first impression of Zachary was
rather bad. And yet they were surprised that she seemed to care about the condition of Zachary's
injury. This made Lewis and the stewards suspicious.
"I do not care about his injury actually. What I do care about is the fact that if he is indeed suffering from
such a severe injury, it wouldn't help him no matter how much advice I give him..." It seemed to Lewis
and the stewards that Sara had made a decision regarding the matter.
"Master Sara, would you prefer that Zachary focus on recovery first?" Lewis asked, having read the
hidden meaning of Sara's statement.
Although Sara didn't answer, her grim countenance gave Lewis an answer he dreaded.
"Truth be told, he may not be able to recover at all from his injuries regardless of how much effort he
put in it. If being coached by you is his last wish, I hope that you will help grant his wish," Lewis said,
hoping that Sara would change her mind.
"I will decide this matter myself, Master Lewis. You should focus on the preparation of the selection
test." Sara left immediately after she spoke.
When Zachary was back at his tent, he immediately entered the system. As if by magic, the third-grade
green cultivation-aiding pill that he had swallowed suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Dumbasses. Do you all really believe that I'd eat such a precious pill like a mere snack? The invigilator
from the Celestial College is quite wealthy. She gives out a third-grade green cultivation-aiding pill so
easily. I should think of a good way to blackmail her. Maybe I can get a few snapshots while she
showers. I wonder if the Treasure-hunting Compass has a photo-taking function." A sinister smile
crossed Zachary's face.
"The system is able to record videos and take photos. If you're under eighteen years old, the system
will automatically add mosaic to the recording," Mimi said, addressing Zachary's question.
"You really know me so well!" Zachary laughed out loud.
He then began to absorb the third-grade green cultivation-aiding pill, which took him six hours. His
martial energy improved substantially. And with the help of the martial energy left by Anne, he attained
the fifth grade of Mortal Level.
When Zachary left the system, it was already in the afternoon. Since he still had training in the
afternoon, he immediately went to the training ground.
The training had already started when he arrived—Sara was already coaching the twelve disciples. A
large group of disciples who came to watch the beautiful invigilator surrounded the area.
"Master Beauty, I'm here!" Zachary greeted Sara as if they were close friends.
"You can go back now. You don't need my coaching anymore," Sara said.
Zachary was in a daze for a few seconds, his eyes turning dark. "Why?" he asked.
"I heard from the sect leader that you were seriously injured. You are not able to be a warrior anymore.
As such, there is no point for you to receive any additional training. You should get yourself healed
first," Sara explained in a straightforward tone.
"I'm feeling much better now. Thank you so much for your concern. But I want to be trained!" Zachary
answered with determination.
"Have I not made myself clear enough? Go back!" Sara stated in a serious tone as she cast a serious
glance at Zachary.
The other disciples were glad to see the situation that Zachary found himself in for they were jealous of
him for what had happened in the morning.
"Master Sara, you're absolutely right! He shouldn't be here anyway! He's a piece of trash!" Benjamin
chipped in delightfully.
"What if I don't go back?" Zachary wasn't the type of person who simply did what he was told. He
crossed his arms, and made an I-don't-care-what-you-say look.
Unfazed by Zachary's defiance, Sara turned around and went back to coach the twelve disciples.
The moment Sara made her turn, a familiar face appeared in front of her. She was startled for a
second, and retreated a few steps back. It astonished her that Zachary could move so fast without her
noticing.
"When did you..." Sara was more curious about Zachary now. 'What kind of movement skill is he using?
Clearly it isn't like any other movement skill. He even managed to move without me detecting it!'
"Master Beauty, do you want to reconsider your decision?" Zachary asked, unwilling to give up.
"Zachary, how dare you be so rude to Master Sara!" Benjamin berated Zachary. He saw this as an
opportunity to impress Sara. He then turned to Sara and said, "Master Sara, please allow me to teach
this disrespectful trash a harsh lesson on your behalf!"
The other disciples all supported Benjamin and there was an uproar in the crowd.
"Quiet!" Sara exclaimed.
The crowd immediately fell quiet.
She stared at Zachary and contemplated for a second. Then she said, "I said I wouldn't coach you
anymore. I will not change my mind. However, since you're injured, I have a fourth-grade green
therapeutic pill for you."
She took out a green pill from her sachet and threw it to Zachary as soon as she finished speaking.
Zachary took a close look at the pill in his hand—it was indeed a fourth-grade green therapeutic pill.
Even though it couldn't match the Heaven and Earth Pill that he gave Elva before, it was still a very
valuable pill.
The other disciples had no idea what just happened. They couldn't understanding how Zachary
received a fourth-grade green therapeutic pill so easily when he acted so shamelessly.
