Chapter 339: Pesi’s Breakthrough

Bang!
The sword energy clashed with the thunder tribulation and disappeared. As if the sky had been ripped open, there was a large hole in the clouds.
Sunlight poured down onto the crowd’s faces. Once the thunder was gone, the clouds soon dissipated.
Pesi had overcome the ninth streak of lightning. He had stepped into the Hinayana stage. Although he was only at the initial phase, he was different from other Hinayana cultivators because he already had a hint of the Mahayana stage.
If he kept going forward on his path, he would soon reach the next cultivation stage.
Well… Pesi let out a breath of relief.
Several elders approached him to see how he was.
“Elder Ein, that strike…”
“It was such an amazing move! I was blown away!”
“I never knew you could do that!”
“Why should you know what Elder Ein can do?”
Seene walked up to Pesi as well. After looking at him up and down, he said, “We only parted for a short while, but you’ve completely changed.”
Pesi chuckled. “A short while? More like 800 years.”
……
“That’s right. It’s been 800 years. I didn’t expect to meet you like this. Do you still practice swords?”
Pesi shook his head and exhaled. “I haven’t done that for a long time, and you know it. I gave up on swordplay once I chose alchemy.”
Seene was perplexed. If he had given up on the sword, what was that sword energy? Was he trying to keep it a secret?
Seeing how confused Seene was, Pesi laughed. “I was inspired. That’s all! Forget about that. Are you here for Lan?”
An inspiration?
Bullshit!
Seene didn’t believe a word, but he didn’t think much of it because it was Pesi’s private matter. The other party could decide if he wanted to tell the truth.
Seene didn’t want to probe too deeply and cross any boundaries.
“Yes, that was my original mission. The principal sensed the thunder tribulation and speculated Lan was making a breakthrough, so he sent me here to check.
“With everything that has happened, I don’t know if he would give me additional missions.”
Lan happened to be nearby and heard him. “Please thank the principal for me, but I already have a master.”
Already have a master?!
What the heck?!
Seene turned to Lan and was about to ask her something when he sensed her energy.
“You’re still at the Contemplation stage.”
Lan hadn’t broken through yet. Seene was dumbfounded. He felt his brain had stopped functioning.
“Yes, so?” She was at the Contemplation stage, and that wasn’t news.
“It’s not that. I just don’t understand.
“Aren’t you supposed to be a Hinayana cultivator now? Why are you still at the Contemplation stage?”
Seene didn’t know how he should feel. Was there something wrong with his senses? If not, was there something wrong with the principal?
That couldn’t be the case!
Seene felt it couldn’t be the principal. It had to be himself.
“What are you talking about? I’m an intermediate Contemplation cultivator, a long way from making a breakthrough.” Lan then walked toward Pesi. “Elder Ein, you never told me you were hiding so many trump cards. I even went to my master to seek his help.
“I didn’t expect to see you do it all by yourself.”
Pesi was surprised. Lan had gone to the master for help!
He owed her a favor now, even if Himmel Soan didn’t do anything.
“Lan, who’s your master?” Seene asked.
Lan was about to say Himmel Soan’s name but stopped. His surname couldn’t be mentioned casually. Even if it could, it should come from her master. She said, “You don’t know him.”
What…
Seene was dumbfounded.
There were only a handful of masters on the continent. Lan had turned down the principal’s offer, so he couldn’t imagine her getting another master.
Just then, his communication device buzzed.
It must be from the principal.
He took out the device and checked the message. A moment later, Seene told Pesi, “The principal has asked you to visit the main campus when you have time. He’d like to reward you for the breakthrough as well as make some arrangements for you.”
He then turned back to the device. He needed to tell the principal about Lan right now. It was an important issue. He never imagined her becoming someone else’s pupil, but that had happened.
“Please thank the principal for me. I’ll visit him soon.”
“Alright!” Seene nodded.
He was already writing a message, so he just added Pesi’s words.
A few steps away, Himmel Soan’s door opened. He and Firey came out and were going to walk around the branch. Their appearance caught many people’s attention.
Lan and Pesi ran to his side, leaving behind the dumbfounded Seene.
What was that?
Turning around, Seene was shocked by what he saw. Lan and Pesi were kneeling in front of a young man and a girl. The spectators were also giving the young man respectful looks.
Was that Lan’s master?
Seene wondered.
He also looked at Himmel Soan.
They’re just an ordinary young man and a little girl. How could they be her master?
If they weren’t, why did Lan kneel at the young man’s feet?
He needed answers.
