I am the young master

——(POV third person)——

Cai ZhenKang Let the blood dye his robe as he saw the fault of his action here. He wasn't knowledgeable enough about sword techniques so Li Huang outwitted him easily because although he was an expert in fighting with an axe, he wasn't an expert when it came to using it against a sword. If he wants to win against Li Huang, he has to first know how he fights.

Li Huang who saw Cai ZhenKang was in deep thought, took out a pill bottle from his storage ring and throw it at him.

Cai ZhenKang came out of his reverie and caught the bottle with one hand. Seeing that it was a pill, he was reluctant to take it because if he were to do that he would be admitting defeat but even if he continue fighting like this, he has almost no chance of winning.

Li Huang who could see what he was thinking about, pointed at his own neck and spoke.

"An inch away from death." And then he pointed at Cai ZhenKang's neck. If he wasn't careful even an inch could prove fatal so Li Huang's words were not baseless and also created a reason for Cai ZhenKang to accept that he has lost this time.

Cai ZhenKang popped the pill and looked at Li Huang.

"*tsk* I will fight you again in the tournament." He said and walked in the direction that he had come from.

The tournament that he was talking about was the divine central continent's tournament, which was held every ten years and everyone under the age of thirty could participate in it. The next one will be held in 7 months so Cai ZhenKang decided to get ready for a fight there.

"Sure." Li Huang said as he really didn't mind fighting Cai ZhenKang again as he was a good fighter.

The main reasons for his victory were [Peeping eye of heaven] and his weapon. The effect of [Peeping eye of heaven] is evident so there is no reason to talk about it but why was his weapon also important? As his sword has a higher reach than Cai ZhenKang's axe, he could fight with more ease and from a relatively safe distance.

Although they didn't trade many blows, even this was enough for them to know the result of the prolonged version of this fight.

When Li Huang turned around he was faced with other disciples who greeted him, although one did a bit reluctantly. Li Huang just nodded to them and went toward Hu Anjing and Ye Ling.

"How is junior brother Hou Junxiong?" when he got in front of them, he asked Ye Ling about the disciple that Cai ZhenKang had beaten. Li Huang only saw him laying in front of the main tent but could guess what happened.

Ye Ling frowned a little at the mention of Hou Junxiong.

"From what I saw, he would recover in about half a day." She said with her signature frown.

Li Huang nodded and faced Hu Anjing.

"We have to change our camp's location now that Cai ZhenKang knows where we are." He said to her, as the leader it is her call to do it.

Hu Anjing also know that so he had no qualms about it.

"Yes, I think so too. How many disciples are out now?" She agreed and asked Ye Ling a question.

Ye Ling took a moment to answer.

"…Only one disciple is out." She said.

"Than we gather our belongings as we are waiting for our last member." Hu Anjing said and Li Huang and Ye Ling nodded to her words.

"You also should rest a little, junior uncle." She then turned and spoke to Li Huang.

"Yes, yes." Li Huang said and sat on a chair that he took out of his storage ring. He knew that Hu Anjing was worried about an all-out fight with the blue bulls sect disciples so he tried to use every second to get back on his optimal form.

…

It didn't take long for the last disciple to get back, but the news he brought with him stopped the group from departing right that instant.

"Junior brother, are you sure about this formation?" Li Huang asked the disciple, Kong Chin, with doubt and excitement.

"Yes senior brother, I have checked and double-checked it and then rushed back to inform you." Kong Chin cupped his fists and confirmed his previous words.

Li Huang, Hu Anjing, and Ye Ling looked at each other for a moment, and then Hu Anjing spoke.

"If this formation is as he says, we have to check it." Hu Anjing said.

"I also think that this is the best course of action." Li Huang seconded her words.

Ye Ling also nodded and after a few seconds asked a question.

"Why wasn't there any information about this kind of formation in what the sect told us?" She asked.

Hu Anjing and Li Huang were confused for a moment until they both understood.

"That is simple, you just didn't have the clearance to know about it as you are yet to become a core disciple." Li Huang said with a smile. Kong Chin who was in a corner acted as he was deaf and didn't hear anything.

"I see. For it to be a secret, that formation must contain a great fortune." Ye Ling said.

"Indeed, let's depart as fast as we can." Li Huang nodded.

Hu Anjing and Ye Ling gave a slight nod and went to inform others of the new plan.

Li Huang walked to Kong Chin and put a hand on his shoulder. Kong Chin who was still thinking of the secret that he accidentally heard, got scared stiff as he didn't know what Li Huang wanted to talk about.

Li Huang didn't care about the secret, because they will know about it when they enter that formation as they are automatically eligible to know it.

"Don't worry junior brother. If this goes well, you will get a big reward from the sect…" Li Huang said to Kong Chin and walked out of the last remaining tent.

What Kong Chin found was a formation that only accepted team entries, meaning all heavenly sword sect disciples can enter it at the same time.

This type of formation is special because they are usually the hardest in the trial but their reward is the biggest and the sect would automatically claim the ownership of such reward. The main reward would belong to the sect but the sect would in turn reward the participants handsomely.

This is only known to core disciples as they know that treasures should be given to someone with enough power to keep them, so it is only natural for the sect to ask for something like this when they are practically paying for it.

Aside from the final reward of the formation, they are usually other things that can be obtained so there is no shortage of fortunes there.
