At this moment, the onlookers in the audience were completely dumbfounded. They were at a loss for words to express the shock they felt.
Three experts at the Condensation Realm level, all listed on the People’s Ranking had died and been severely wounded within a few breaths of time.
And the person responsible for all this was merely standing there, not lifting a finger, and not even taking a step.
Zhang San and Li Si were both staring at Jiang Yuan, their faces reflecting their disbelief. It was as if they had just been slapped in the face.
They had been confident that their strength was on par with Jiang Yuan’s, and they had even entertained thoughts of challenging him.
But now they realized the extent of the gap between them and Jiang Yuan.
“Young man, you have good physical attributes. It would be a pity if you were to die like this,” a prominent figure in the carriage suddenly spoke.
His voice was not loud but it resounded throughout the entire scene which made everyone hear him clearly.
Jiang Yuan turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a spirited old man. The old man appeared to be in his fifties, dressed in white martial attire, and carried a black and white pair of swords on his back, giving off the aura of a sword immortal.
The words “All-Rounder” were embroidered in black letters on both the front and back of his attire.
The old man sat proudly in the carriage and said to Jiang Yuan, “I’ll give you a chance. If you’re willing to become my disciple, I’ll forgive your rudeness today, and I’ll personally guide your cultivation in the future.”
As soon as the old man’s words fell, the entire scene fell into silence. Everyone turned their gaze to Jiang Yuan, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
Who was an All-Rounder Grandmaster?
He was a true martial master listed on the Martial Arts Alliance’s People’s Ranking, known as the most versatile martial artist in the entire Zhongzhou region.
He excelled in swordsmanship, knife skills, spear techniques, puppetry weapons, archery, boxing, body techniques, martial arts techniques, and much more. He was a master of all eighteen forms of martial arts.
To become the disciple of such a person was a golden opportunity that countless people dreamt of. In Zhongzhou, those who aspired to become disciples of the All-Rounder Grandmaster were too numerous to count.
But the requirements set by the All-Rounder Grandmaster for accepting disciples were extremely strict, and one of the minimum requirements was to be listed on the People’s Ranking.
Without achieving this rank, no matter how much one tried to please the All-Rounder Grandmaster, it was impossible to gain admission.
Yet now, this unknown man who had not even made it onto the People’s Ranking had caused the deaths and injuries of the All-Rounder Grandmaster’s disciples. Instead of blaming him, the All-Rounder Grandmaster was offering him an olive branch.
How great an honor was this?
How much attention did this person attract?
At this moment, everyone in the audience wished they could switch places with Jiang Yuan.
However, Jiang Yuan’s response completely exceeded their expectations.
“Sorry, I’m not interested,” Jiang Yuan said lackadaisically, and without even looking at the All-Rounder Grandmaster, he turned and walked away.
As they watched Jiang Yuan’s retreating figure, the people were petrified with shock.
The All-Rounder Grandmaster had taken the initiative to accept a disciple. How many people longed for this opportunity? How many people dreamed of it?
Even a master like Zhao Zhan had to beg the All-Rounder Grandmaster to accept him as a disciple.
Yet the man before them, who was unknown and unranked had directly rejected the All-Rounder Grandmaster’s offer, and he hadn’t even bothered to look at the All-Rounder Grandmaster. He seemed to have no regard for the All-Rounder Grandmaster whatsoever.
Who was this person who could perform such an astonishing act?
At this moment, a tremendous and overwhelming pressure emanated from the All-Rounder Grandmaster, sweeping through the scene like a tsunami.
“How… How terrifying is this aura! Is this the pressure of a True Martial Realm expert?”
“The All-Rounder Grandmaster is enraged! That ignorant man is in big trouble now!”
The entire audience felt suffocated at this moment. Those who had no martial cultivation were even directly crushed to the ground, unable to move a finger.
But Jiang Yuan, who was at the forefront, remained completely unaffected, and continued on his way as if nothing had happened.
Seeing Jiang Yuan’s response, the All-Rounder Grandmaster’s eyes briefly showed surprise.
Since he had reached the True Martial Realm, no martial artist below that level had been able to remain unfazed by his pressure.
This seemingly unremarkable man was unaffected, leaving the All-Rounder Grandmaster incredulous.
“In Zhongzhou, no one dares to ignore me. You are the first to disregard me. Today, I will see what qualifications you have!” The All-Rounder Grandmaster’s face quickly darkened.
He infused his qi into the white sword on his back. As soon as he did, the white sword released a terrifying aura.
It was no longer just a sword, it was like a world-destroying calamity!
