"Way to go, Eldest Senior Brother!"
Huang Dacheng and the others watched with their blood boiling; even Ma Zhu secretly clenched his fists.
Aaron's eyes flickered as he watched, pondering to himself, So... whether one has entered force is the dividing line between ordinary people and the extraordinary in this world?
"Eldest Senior Brother... after 'forms' and 'skin training,' what realm comes next?"
Huang Dacheng had begun habitually playing the foil.
"Haha... what an ignorant kid."
The senior brothers and sisters in front all burst into laughter. "Once you train martial arts to the point of entering force, you've truly crossed the threshold and can become Master's disciple."
