New Age Of Summoners

Chapter 1238: Origin Of The ‘training Grounds’

'Oh, right! Senior brother Paulin has a skill that can temporarily increase the battle prowess of anyone he touches.'

Ajax remembered the special skill possessed by Paulin and he was not surprised that Paulin would spend so much time in the training grounds related to the skills.

Before Ajax entered the training grounds, Zaglanath explained that there were various training grounds like Bloodline training grounds, skill training grounds, cultivation techniques training grounds and a few more that focus on those respective fields that Ajax could choose from to enter.

Since Ajax felt bloodlines are the shortcuts to the bloodlines to become powerful. So, he chose Bloodline training grounds that were guarded by Mostror.

As for Paulin, he had a special skill that would help him a lot more compared to the bloodline. So, it was the best thing for him to select the skill training grounds.

"Yes. He left the training grounds a few days back. I think he was also looking forward to the contest in the Ylercester province."

Zaglanath nodded his head as he shared his thoughts.

"Oh. It's good."

Ajax nodded his head as he asked the half-demon, "By the way, who owns the other training grounds and what is the organization that created all these training grounds."

Earlier, he wanted to ask his master about these questions; however, his master sent him out of the bloodline training grounds all of a sudden.

So, he could only ask Zaglanath since he was the start of everything.

So far Ajax learned how the process of these so-called recruitment works.

First, a few selected would undergo the respective trials that were managed by Zaglanath and his clones.

  After those who passed these trials, they would be given permission to enter any training grounds that they were. If these participants were able to impress those experts who manage the training grounds, they could become the personal disciples of those experts.

'At least that's what I think. So, I am curious about the organization behind these experts of the emperor realm and the magical training grounds.'

Ajax waited for Zaglanath to answer his question.

"Huh? Your master didn't explain anything about these things?"

Zaglanath was surprised for a moment when he heard Ajax's question as he didn't expect his uncle Mostror to not explain anything to his personal disciple.

"No"

Ajax shook his head with a bitter smile on his face.

'He took the personal disciple without explaining anything.' Zaglanath frowned as he looked at Ajax and thought, 'I wonder why he took him as his personal disciple in the first place?'

Even though Ajax has good battle prowess, that doesn't mean he was one in a million genius that was worth taking as a personal disciple of Mostror.

'Compared to the young geniuses from the greater worlds, he was lacking in everything.'

Zaglanath compared Ajax with the geniuses from the greater worlds; however, he felt the only recognizable feat accomplished by Ajax was gaining such battle prowess while staying in a lowly province of a normal world.

'Looks like there was something about Ajax that Uncle Mostror liked about him.'

Nevertheless, Zaglanath was not the type to discriminate against cultivators based on their birthplace because he was also born here in the same province.

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing that Zaglanath was not saying, Ajax asked after some hesitation.

"No…it's just that I was thinking about something."

Zaglanath shook his head as he came out of his thoughts and asked, "So, you want to know more about these training grounds."

"Yes."

Ajax nodded his head and continued, "Also, about the organization behind them."

"It is not good to talk about the organization. So, you better ask Uncle Mostror about the organization part and as for the training grounds, I can tell you about it."

Soon, Zaglanath continued saying, "No one knows who created them or how they are formed in the first place. It's just that whoever discovers them first, they could claim it for themselves just like a dimensional crevice."

"What?"

In the beginning, Ajax nodded his head and decided to ask his master about the organization; however, after he heard about the origins of the training grounds, he was greatly shocked.

"Yes. Just like the dimensional crevices. Later on, the ownership can be transferred if the original owner wants to give it to others."

Zaglanath already expected this kind of reaction from Ajax as he asked, "So you know what is a dimensional crevice, right?"

"Yes."

Not only Ajax knows about a dimensional crevice but he actually owns one; however, Ajax didn't want to casually talk about his wealth and trump cards to others.

So, he nodded his head saying that he knew about the dimensional crevices.

"Dimensional crevices are already rare but these so-called training grounds were very rare compared to him."

Zaglanath seemed like exaggerating the rarity of the training grounds; however, Ajax knew how rare the dimensional crevices were and since the training grounds provide great benefits to a cultivator, it would be of course, even more, rare than them.

"It took your master's entire contributions, points and assets to buy three of these training grounds before leaving the organization."

Zaglanath said the price of the training grounds and the recent action of Mostror.

"What? Did master leave the organization? When did he leave?"

Ajax was surprised for a moment before asking about it.

"Huh? Uncle didn't even tell you about this?"

Zaglanath was finding the actions of his uncle more and more complex and thought, 'What is uncle Mostror planning to do.'

"It was around 4 days ago."

Nevertheless, controlling his doubts, Zaglanath informed about it.

"It is around the same time as when he took me as his disciple."

Ajax found it was very recent and calculated the time, only to find out that it was around the same day as he became Mostror' personal disciple.

"Yes. Anyone related to the organization should not take the personal disciple."

Finally, Zaglanath revealed something to Ajax, making him frown.
