1427 I will wait for you in the tournament.
"WHAT!?"
"LADY AELIANA TOOK IN A DISCPLE!?"
"HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!?"
"What? Are you trying to say that Lady Aeliana cannot take in a disciple!?"
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN!!"
"Stop shouting."
"BU-"
"I said stop shouting. Lady Aeliana is more than qualified to take in a disciple."
"I know that as well!! If Lady Aeliana isn't qualified, then no one in the entire world is! What I am trying to say is no one in the world is qualified to be her disciple!" the man replied and this time, "…"
The man, who had been acting calm the entire time, didn't say anything.
Yes, he didn't deny those words either.
No one in this world was qualified to be Lady Aeliana's disciple. After all, Lady Aeliana was the greatest, if she took in a disciple, that disciple needs to have the potential to be the greatest as well.
They wouldn't let some random idiot become their Goddess's disciple.
"Find out who that man is!"
The man shouted.
"I need to know what qualifications he has to become our Lady Aeliana's disciple!"
No one defied that order either, rather, they all wanted to get to the bottom of this.
This wasn't the only such conversation happening in the Ancestral Order's dimensions. The Ancestral Order members were divided into countless factions and in all these factions, similar conversations were taking place.
Heck, some of the more efficient factions had already sent their men to look into the matter, some of them had even managed to contact all the people who were seen together with Lady Aeliana in the last few days.
And…
All of this happened when Aeliana hadn't even completed her announcement.
Soon, the large screen hovering in the sky showed an extremely handsome man who had a surprised look on his face. The females looking at the screens momentarily blinked their eyes as they saw the man, for an instant, they felt as if their brains short-circuited. A reaction that made all the men narrow their eyes, but suddenly, Aeliana appeared next to the handsome man and placed her hand over his shoulder.
An act that garnered the jealousy of men and women.
'You bastard… stay away from our Goddess!!'
Many cursed in their heads, seeing a man, especially someone whom they had never seen before being so close to Aeliana chewed their hearts out. The members of the order wanted nothing more than to tear through Nux's body right now.
That was just how obsessed they were with their Leader.
And Aeliana, knowing that full well, just smiled at the screen before she turned towards Nux and, "My 'dear' disciple, would you like to say anything to others?"
"H-Huh?" Nux stuttered.
However, before he could understand the situation and say anything, Aeliana continued, "Oh right, I forgot to announce something important."
Then, the Vampire stared at her people through the screen and smirked, "I am sure all of you are curious about who he is, his identity, his background, I am sure that you are also surprised that someone you have never seen before is currently standing with me.
I know all of you have also sent people to investigate this man and…" Aeliana's face suddenly turned solemn and, "I order you to cease those actions."
In an instant, all the beings rushing to investigate Nux froze. Looking at Aeliana's expression, their bodies couldn't help but tremble. Their nightmare, however, ended before it could start as the smile returned on Aeliana's face and, "There is no need for such action since I will be revealing what you people need to know, As mentioned, the name of my disciple is Nux Leander, he comes from the Forgotten Continent that was discovered a few months ago, he is an Emperor Stage cultivator and… He is only 22 years old."
"!!!"
The people widened their eyes when they heard those words.
"Surprising, isn't it? I was the same when I first encountered him. I personally checked his bone age to make sure that I wasn't being deceived and I wasn't.
This child really is a 22-year-old Emperor Stage Complete Cultivator. Seeing his potential, I couldn't help but be tempted to take him in as my disciple."
Hearing those words, the members of the Ancestral Order couldn't help but lower their heads. As much as they wanted to say that no one was qualified enough to be their goddess's disciple, the fact was… that this child… was.
None of them could refute his absurd potential.
But as she if she was enjoying playing with her subordinates' hearts, Aeliana continued, "Of course, him being able to cultivate fast doesn't actually prove his potential, there are many factors that are to be considered when one defines a cultivator's potential, cultivation speed is just one of them.
I understand that my decision to take him in as my disciple could very well be a rushed one, therefore, to see whether my decision was correct or not, I came up with a solution, A solution, that I believe many of you would find appealing.
I call it, a Disciple's Will.
It will be a form of tournament where after every year, a tournament will take place, and the winner of the tournament will get the chance to challenge my disciple, of course, there will be a limit to who can participate in this tournament. Since my disciple is currently an Emperor, only Emperor Stage Cultivators will be allowed to participate in the tournament, And…
If the challenger won against my disciple,
He will be taking his position and becoming my new disciple.
The Tournament will continue every year until I find a disciple who remains undefeated for 100 years.
So my people, prepare well, the tournament begins in a year. Who knows?
You might become my next disciple."
Aeliana chuckled playfully as she said those words and without letting her people react, she turned back to Nux and, "Now, my 'dear' disciple, I am sorry for interrupting you before,
Why don't you address all the people now?"
Nux stared at the sadistic woman in front of him for a good minute, then, he just smiled, "So this is how you want to play, huh… my 'dear' master?
Let's do this then.
I will give you the show you expect me to."
Saying those words, Nux turned towards the screen, as if he was looking right into the eyes of countless beings staring daggers right at him, "All of you who do not believe that I am qualified to become my Master's disciple, I will wait for you in the tournament.
And to show you how huge the difference between us is,
I announce that I will admit defeat if I cannot defeat my opponent within 10 moves."
