Rejecting Thor!

Thor, the world's second strongest fighter.

It sounded glorious.

But Limitless Martial Arts School had a creed—to pursue the limit, and surpass the limit!

There was also a more common way to say it—"a fighter who doesn't want to be number one in the world isn't a qualified fighter"!

Thor and Hong were so close, so of course he had heard of this saying.

Did Thor not want to be the strongest in the world?

He coveted that spot badly.

The "Nine Heavens Thunder Blade" Thor created was the fastest blade in the world. In terms of force exertion levels, even Hong's "World Annihilation" was far inferior to it.

He also possessed the fastest speed in the world, and the strongest physique in the world!

In terms of realm, he had always been a cut above Hong, yet he still could not defeat him, and that was because Hong had a domain.

A domain made Hong almost unrivaled within the Planetary Level, allowing him to easily fight above his level.

Thor had squandered decades in pursuit of a domain, yet had never grasped its mysteries. Now that an outstanding seedling had appeared before him, he could hardly wait to see Hong's face when he was shocked by Gu Ce's talent!

"This should be the place, right?"

With a thought, Thor arrived above Gu Family Manor. Strangely, no one nearby was able to discover him.

"Oh?"

Suddenly, Thor seemed to notice something and looked toward Lightning Martial Arts School.

Jiangnan Base City's Lightning Martial Arts School headquarters was not far from Gu Family Manor. With Thor's Planetary Level strength, he could naturally discover what was happening over there.

The next instant, Thor turned into a bolt of lightning and arrived above Lightning Martial Arts School.

"Good kid, an Advanced Warrior suppressing a High-level General!" Thor concealed his figure and watched the situation on the sparring stage, unable to stop his eyes from widening.

With his eyesight, he could naturally tell that Wang Heng was holding back and had only used physical qualities equivalent to an Elementary General, but he was still being suppressed by Gu Ce on the level of technique!

One had to know that Wang Heng was a long-famous High-level General. In the future, it might not be impossible for him to enter the War God ranks, and he had even mastered the third level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. Yet he was still being suppressed by Gu Ce. His movement technique and Blade Techniques were both a whole level worse. The gap was huge!

Clang!

The third level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade added three streams of Hidden Force, for 2.8 times force exertion.

Gu Ce held Longevity Sword and clashed head-on with Wang Heng. In the end, he still could not withstand his offensive and was defeated.

"I lost." Gu Ce shook his head slightly.

After placing the battle blade in his hand back on the weapon rack, Wang Heng came before Gu Ce and said in surprise,

"I even used the physical qualities of a Mid-level General, and only barely defeated you with the force exertion of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. It's a good thing your Longevity Swordplay hasn't broken through to the second level, or I'm afraid I might not necessarily have won even if I'd gone all out."

"Brother Wang, I see your Blade Techniques have improved too. Are you about to break through to the fourth level?" Gu Ce said with a smile.

"Still far off." Wang Heng shook his head. "If I could break through to the fourth level, I wouldn't have been stuck at the General Level all this time."

"It's fine, Brother Wang. I believe you can do it," Gu Ce comforted him.

"Brother Wang, I'll head back first." After the fight ended, Gu Ce was covered in sweat as well, and was just about to go home, take a shower, and change clothes.

However, when he turned his head, he discovered a big bald man in a white robe not far away, looking at him with a cheerful grin.

Six Eyes had actually failed to discover him!

Gu Ce was startled, then immediately realized something.

"Hall Master?" Gu Ce asked tentatively.

"What? Lord Hall Master?" Wang Heng, who was cleaning up the venue on the other side, heard the commotion and looked over as well. He could not help freezing, his eyes widening.

"Eh, don't make a fuss." Thor made a shushing gesture at Wang Heng, then looked at Gu Ce with a smile.

"Youngster Gu, I've been observing you for a long time. Are you willing to take me as your master?" Thor rubbed his big bald head and smiled. "Within two years, I can definitely train you into a powerhouse among War Gods!"

"Even an existence surpassing War Gods isn't impossible!"

Thor looked at Gu Ce expectantly.

Wang Heng stood to the side, looking even more nervous than Gu Ce, staring at Thor excitedly and wishing he could agree on Gu Ce's behalf right then and there.

"Hall Master." Gu Ce looked at Thor and said softly, "Although I respect you greatly, please forgive me for refusing."

"Why?" Thor froze.

"Because." Gu Ce thought for a moment, but still kept those arrogant words bottled up in his heart.

Although he was very confident, he also knew it was not good to offend people casually when his strength was still weak.

"What I lack is only resources, not guidance from others," Gu Ce said seriously. "Hall Master, you use a blade, while I use a sword. Naturally, there's no way for us to fully connect in that regard, and my eldest uncle can guide me in sword arts."

"As for other aspects, I don't think anyone on Earth can guide me. Not even Hall Master Hong!" Gu Ce said confidently.

"You brat." Hearing Gu Ce's words, Thor was a little angry, but did not show it.

Wasn't this plainly saying that he was inferior to Hong?

"Fine," Thor said in a deep voice.

"I'd like to see just how far you can go if I give you resources!"

"The confidence passed down through your Gu family line really is..." Thor shook his head.

"Tomorrow, I'll meet your eldest uncle with your father. Then you'll come with me to the global headquarters for special training! I'll give you the best resources and see what level you can reach."

"Then I'll thank you in advance, Hall Master!" Gu Ce said with a smile.

"Hmph." Thor rolled his eyes at him in annoyance.

The dignified world number two had taken the initiative to accept a disciple, only to be rejected. If word got out, wouldn't people laugh themselves to death?

However, Gu Ce had also said that Hong was not qualified to guide him either, which made Thor feel a little more balanced.

"Hm?" Suddenly catching sight of Wang Heng to the side, Thor's eyes widened.

"If you dare spread what happened today..."

"Rest assured, Lord Hall Master. If I leak today's events, I'll drop dead on the spot!" Wang Heng immediately said, thumping his chest, while also feeling great admiration for Gu Ce.

To refuse the temptation of becoming Thor's disciple to his face—looking across the entire globe, how many people could do that?

At the very least, Wang Heng admitted he could not.

"Wang Heng, you discovered a genius, so that counts as a contribution. I'll reward you with the complete set of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, plus my personal guidance. Do you have any objections?" Thor said after a cold snort.

"Thank you, Hall Master!" Wang Heng hurriedly said in delighted surprise.

"Good. Your proficiency with the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade is already sufficient, but there are some issues with your force exertion movements. That is also the reason you have never been able to step into the fourth level..." Thor gave Wang Heng some pointers, hoping to use this to entice Gu Ce into becoming his disciple.

Unfortunately, Gu Ce seemed to turn a blind eye to it and turned to leave.

This made Thor even angrier. He made up his mind that tomorrow, he would drag Gu Hesheng out for a little practice and see the fine son he had taught!

Gu Hesheng was from his Lightning Martial Arts School, so Thor had not the slightest burden when it came to teaching him a lesson.

In truth, Thor and the two Gu brothers could be considered people of the same era. They had all fought their way out of the Great Nirvana, knew one another, and had quite a good relationship.

In the distance, Gu Hesheng sneezed.

Who's thinking about me?
