The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell

Chapter 224

“Casper, your skills are fine and delicate, and you’re full of vigor.

I’m impressed,” Kyle also complimented Josef, “In fact, your physical strength might even be comparable to a body refiner.

I bet you’ll get a spot in the top ten of the spiritual apprentice list in the future.

Hezti also praised Kyle, “I also wish for you to get a great result in the spiritual apprentice list competition next month.

Although our battle was not long, I’ve learned quite a bit from it.

It turns out martial skills are not the only thing for a cultivator, and there are still many other aspects.

Hence, I want to take advantage of the flash of inspiration in my mind and go back and get some enlightenment.

”

Hezti’s commentaries were not rare among cultivators.

Many cultivators would have an aspiration after a battle, and if they went to comprehend it, they would surely have an improvement Thus, Kyle did not waste Capsian’s time anymore, and he reminded, “Casper, our realm in the pathway of immortality is just a small step, and the journey is unimaginably long and broad.

You should go back and achieve enlightenment first.

If there‘s anything that you don’t understand, you can always look for me at any time, and I’ll answer you if I know.

”

Kyle was all smiles, and he appeared like a senior looking after his junior.

He might as well have written “I have great expectations of you, Casper” on his forehead.

Hezti thanked Kyle and immediately left the Immortal Soldiers Arena.

Soon, he disappeared from Kyle’s line of sight.

Kyle smiled as he looked in the direction where Hezti left.

Then, he checked the weather, and his languid appearance returned as he walked toward the bamboo forest outside of the Immortal Soldiers Arena.

There was no one in the bamboo forest, and there were only rustling sounds from the breeze.

Kyle slowly walked into the bamboo forest, taking turns here and there.

Not long after, he arrived at an open space about half an acre.

In the middle of the space, there was a stone table and two matching chairs.

Peter sat at one of the chairs, quietly watching Kyle.

Kyle steadied himself, and he greeted with cupped hands, “How are you, Peter.

I’ve done the things you asked me to.

”However, the languid appearance he had before disappeared, and it was replaced by a stern expression.

When Peter heard that he nodded and asked, “What’s the result?”

“Casper didn’t try his best, and it was apparent that he didn’t trust me enough.

However, I think John was defeated by Casper not because John was weak, but he was sneak attacked by Casper due to his carelessness,” Kyle informed Peter.

Peter’s gaze was profound with a thoughtful look.

Then, he tapped on the table rhythmically as he said, “If that’s the case, John was telling the truth when he said he was severely injured from Casper’s sneak attack.

”Peter arranged for John to teach Hezti a lesson, but John was severely injured.

It was extremely embarrassing for John to lose to a disciple in a lower realm than him.

Hence, when Peter questioned him, John mentioned that Hezti sneaked an attack first, and he was injured as he was caught off guard.

After pondering for a moment, Peter said, “What else?”

“Besides that, Casper showed the skills he used to handle John before, the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows and Eight-Shadowed Fists, and his strength was much higher than the cultivators of the same realm. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Perhaps he had a fortuitous encounter before or maybe he’s gifted.

Moreover, Casper’s an extremely cautious person.

When we talked, Casper was tight-lipped, and he did not reveal any useful information.

However, I believe that if I continue to get closer to him, I have an 80% chance of getting more details,” Kyle replied.

“It’s indeed quite sudden to let you probe him.

After all, nobody expected him to leave for a mission after hurting John and Samuel.

Thankfully, you managed to stop him in time, ” Peter said and continued, “Someone informed me that he’s accepting another task again, and he won’t be around for the next thirty days.

When Kyle heard that, he frowned.

“The spiritual apprentice list competition will be held on the twentieth of next month.

Isn’t he going to join?”

Peter reasoned, “It’s normal for newly-entered disciples to forgo the spiritual apprentice list ranking competition for a year or two.

After all, it won’t be beneficial to participate in the match if one is not strong enough.

Not only will they lose their hard-earned spirit stone, but if they’re traumatized by the defeat, it’ll leave a bad impact on their ascension journey.

However, Kyle disagreed with Peter’s opinion.

“Peter, I don’t think Casper’s someone willing to lay low for a long time.

Based on my hunch, he surely has a trump card, but as he doesn’t trust me enough, he didn’t show it during the battle in the Immortal Soldiers Arena just now.

Moreover, this skill might even be the key for him to get a ranking in the spiritual apprentice list.

“Oh?” Peter looked at Kyle.

“Kyle, what ranking do you think Casper can get?”

That time, Kyle took a long time to think about that.

Finally, he let out an exasperated sigh.

“Peter, this is not easy to answer.

Even though he defeated John, most of them were sneak attacks.

However, if he’s not strong enough, he wouldn’t have been able to do that.

Hence, based on my observation and estimation, he might be ranked within the top two hundred and fifty.

Even at his worst, he won’t be ranked over three hundred.

“It’s considered great for newcomers to get a ranking on their first rank competition.

” Peter looked askance at Kyle, obviously doubting Kyle’s comments.

The so-called being ranked referred to the top 1,000 apprentices on the spiritual apprentice list, and only those apprentices would be eligible to appear on that stele.

Kyle laughed awkwardly, “Peter, what I said is only an estimation.

Besides, getting a good result in their first rank competition might be rare, but it doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

Weren’t you one of them, Peter?”

Kyle was secretly flattering Peter.

And it worked for Peter.

When Kyle mentioned his glorious past, Peter showed a reminiscing and prideful look.

Nonetheless, he mumbled humbly, “I barely entered the top one thousand, but you said Casper is going to enter the top three hundred just now.

That’s slightly exaggerating.

Then, Peter changed the topic.

“Since you think highly of him, do you think we can absorb him into our group?”

If Hezti was really full of potential and as strong as Kyle described, Peter might as well recruit Hezti to strengthen their forces instead of fighting him.

Kyle’s answer that time sounded more gracious than before.

“It depends on the spiritual apprentice list rank competition next month.

After all, my estimation might be wrong, and Casper’s unreadable.

When I talk to him, I need to pay full attention.

Otherwise, I might be trapped by his words.

After saying that, Kyle looked at Peter, waiting for his reply.
