Ancient Sword Divine Lord had long since heard about the deeds of Tian Yuan City from his own disciple.
He was very satisfied with his disciple, especially his second disciple, Wu Ming, who was about to ascend to the Acquired Legendary Grade and possessed the bearing of a great lord.
However, this second disciple often said that several experts in Tian Yuan City were not inferior to him, and there were even peerless prodigies whose natural talent and combat power surpassed his own.
Modesty was a virtue, but excessive modesty was not a good thing.
Confidence was especially important for a genius.
This foolish disciple muttered every day about others being strong? How could that be? If there really were so many experts, wouldn't that mean he, Ancient Sword Divine Lord, was lacking in his teaching level?
It had taken him hundreds of years to finally teach his second disciple, just such a peerless prodigy with the bearing of a great lord.
Ancient Sword Divine Lord knew quite a few great-lord-level experts, but those great lords were basically all of the Innate Legendary Grade.
Neither could his old friends among the great lords produce any decent disciples.
His second and third disciples were the envy of many old friends.
"Could my divine lord's second disciple merely have mediocre talent in Tian Yuan City? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"However, Tian Yuan City is indeed not a simple territory. To be able to rise with such rapid momentum and even repeatedly slay saints... This Tian Yuan City Lord clearly possesses great fortune. It is quite likely that Tian Yuan City has experts capable of matching my second disciple's talent."
Ancient Sword Divine Lord thought to himself.
He had not been able to witness the Battle of the Saints of a short while ago
