Blood Assimilation

55 Attention

At the same time.

At a certain location within the Eastern District.

At this moment, two figures were silently savoring and drinking their alcohol as they sat across from each other.

At this point, they had just finished watching a sparring match between two individuals who faced each other within the virtual world through the streaming system that was currently projected on the wall of the room they were in.

For a while, no one said anything to each other until one of the figures who was wearing a white robe suddenly spoke.

“Old Jin, what do you think of this youngster?”

“Hmm... Not bad.”

The other figure who had a bulkier figure and adorning a golden robe said indifferently as he took a swig of his liquor in loud audible gulps.

“Huh? That’s all you have to say? I thought for sure that you will be interested in this youngster. After all, aren’t you a fist user yourself?” The white robe figure appeared surprised as he said.

.....

“...That’s not what I meant... I meant that his foundations were not bad.” The golden robe figure said after a finishing his gourd of liquor.

And then he continued to speak in praise: “Even though that is only a virtual world, his movements indicates that he had at least practiced the government’s devised foundation techniques to the maximum. Although those techniques were only for the mundane world to practice, nonetheless, it is still a great achievement.”

“Ah, so that was what you mean by that. But still, is that it? Are you really not interested in the youngster...” The white robe figure asked in an unconvinced tone.

“Oh, now that I think about it, I recall my disciple was in the top 5 in this virtual duel. Why don’t we have him test this youngster and see whether he has some promise.” The white robe figure suggested to the golden robe figure.

Hearing this suggestion, the golden robe figure pondered his words and then replied: “Well, that will be good since we can judge whether....

The golden robe figure suddenly paused and then after thinking of something, he spoke up again in a condescending tone: “Let’s make this interesting, if your disciple happens lose to this brat, then that will only serve to prove my point that martial artists were superior compared to you cultivators. How about we bet on this match with that as the wager? If I win this bet, you will have to admit it in front of everyone and likewise if your disciple wins against the brat, I will admit it that martial artists were instead inferior compared to cultivators, how about it? Do you dare?”

“Are we still talking about this matter? Fine, I highly doubt that my disciple, Weisheng would lose to this youngster that came out of nowhere.” The white robe figure scowled and confidently said in response.

After saying that, the white robe figure immediately took out a communication talisman and then contacted someone on the other side of the talisman.

A short while later, a young man suddenly approached the room where the two figures were in and then proceeded to knock on the door to the room.

At this moment, the white robe figure suddenly urged: “My dear disciple, Weisheng, come in.”

“Yes.”

After replying, the young man slowing opened the door and then walked in with gentle but hurried steps without making any sound or noise in the room despite moving quickly through the hall of the room.

Seeing this, the golden robe figure praised: “Not bad. You really have a good disciple. If only my disciple can be as good as yours in terms of character.”

“Haha, no need to flatter this one.” The white robe man laughed heartily upon hearing his praise.

“Hmph! Why would I flatter you? I am talking about your disciple, not you.” The golden robe figure snorted and said in annoyance.

At this point, the young man had finally reached them, stood before them, and then bowed slightly.

“This disciple greets teacher and Uncle Jin.” The young man greeted them.

“Hm. Weisheng, have you seen the new virtual combat recording just now.” The white robe man nodded and asked in a gentle tone.

“No, teacher. This disciple was in the middle comprehending a new sword technique, so this disciple hasn’t watched it yet.” He respectfully answered.

“In that case, come and watch it now.” The white robe figure said to him.

The young man was confused by his teacher’s words, however he still went to the side, where there was a projected screen on the wall.

After receiving instructions from his teacher, he then on tap on the device that recorded the virtual matches that occurred a while ago.

The next moment, the recording started playing and immediately showcasing an armored swordsman and a red robe fist user who were engaging in combat...

A while later...

“So, what do you think of this youngster, do you think you can defeat him.” The white robe figure immediately asked in anticipation.

“This... this disciple is not sure, teacher. But if this disciple tries his best to fight against him, then perhaps, this disciple might be able to defeat him.” The young man humbly responded in uncertainty to his teacher’s sudden question.

“Good! I want you to fight this youngster. Don’t make me lose face. Your uncle and I have a bet on whether you win or lose this match.” The white robe figure revealed to him.

“...”

The young man was silent for a brief moment and then solemnly responded: “Understood, teacher. This disciple will do his best.”

“Hm. You should take your leave now and whenever that youngster sends out a challenge again, quickly accept it before anyone else does.” The white robe man nodded in satisfaction after hearing his response and then said to him.

“Understood! Then this disciple will take his leave now teacher, Uncle Jin.”

Saying so, the young man cusped his fist with one hand, bowed and then retreated gracefully before turning around and walking away in long strides.

Soon, he left the room entirely, leaving the golden robe figure and the white robe figure alone in the room. ????????????r????????????. ????om

After the young man left, there was a brief moment of silence.

Then, the white robe figure could not help but speak at this moment.

“If you think about it, it is quite strange. Just where did this youngster come from? To be able to defeat Baby Sword Master who was the apprentice of the that man, why haven’t we heard about him before today?” The white robe figure frowned and questioned in a puzzled tone.

“Hm, his appearance is also quite strange. I have never seen anyone like that before, even with so many innate abilities that alter the appearances, I still find his appearance quite strange or rather unique.” The golden robe figure agreed with him.

“Ah, that’s right, I also think so too. His appearance is indeed unique.” The white robe figure also agreed with the golden robe figure’s statement as he immediately pondered for a bit.
