The Peak of True Martial Arts (Zhen Wu Dianfeng / 真武巅峰)

Sorry, Master. I couldn't reach the True Soul Realm.

I set the expectation too high for you.

You've been training in the hidden realm with my assistance.

You've never been in a true battle of life and death.

Naturally, you'd lack enlightenment in martial arts.

You should go on an adventure in the martial arts world.

It could be a year or two, or maybe five years.

You will be able to reach your goal.

Yes, Master. I will give it my best.

Over the years,

I detached my True Soul to help you with the training.

I neglected my cultivation of martial art.

I plan to go overseas

and strive for greater heights.

Take care.

Thank you, Master.

When I become a Martial King,

I will go to you.

Has my son become a Martial King?

My son is truly the greatest warrior in the world.

Despite his young age, he's reached the peak of Soul Shaping Realm.

I was already 300 years old when I reached your level of attainment.

You've surpassed me.

Yes, Father.

I am no match for the Founding Patriarch,

but I've surpassed the prodigies of other sects.

Don't worry, Father.

I will do my best to reach the True Soul Realm and become a Martial King.

Good.

Perfect timing.

While I am away, take care of the sect for me.

Hold on.

There is a matter I need your help with.

What could possibly be so challenging for you?

For the past decade or so,

an outstanding prodigy was born into the Haotian Sect.

How great of a prodigy?

He reached the Soul Shaping Realm when he was only 24 years old.

A Master of the Soul Shaping Realm at only 24?

His talent is on par with the Founding Patriarch.

His name is Nie Feng. He was born in a normal family of martial artists.

He then joined the Medicine King's Peak and became Huang Jingchuan's direct apprentice.

But his relationship with the Hao family is hostile.

He will bring us trouble unless we eliminate him now.

You want me to get rid of him?

Yes.

Huang Jingchuan will stand against us if we attack Nie Feng.

Even if Xing Kuang, Wei Chong, and I fight together,

it'll be a challenge to subdue Huang Jingchuan.

Besides, Nie Feng has reached the mid-stage of the Soul Shaping Realm.

If Huang Jingchuan wants to protect him,

it will be difficult to seize Nie Feng.

Very well. I shall tend to this matter before I go.

One more thing.

The Haotian Sect is a righteous sect.

If you want Nie Feng captured, you need a sound reason.

If they resist,

then I shall have a sound reason to fight.

Why go through such trouble?

I may not be a Martial King yet, but there is no one I can't defeat.

Let me take care of him.

Very well. You lack experience in real combat.

Huang Jingchuan is one of the best among his peers.

He is a good opponent for you.

Yes.

As for Nie Feng,

if his might is on par with the Founding Patriarch,

he must be stronger than those in the same realm.

He will be a good challenge to hone your skill.

I will not let you down.

Father.

To make them rebel,

we can start by going after those they hold dear.
