I was taught since young that hard work would be rewarded and prodigies were just a rumor, but seeing this kid before me.. I feel truly useless.
What lay in front of Wuji's gaze was a small boy with dark black hair and pure blue eyes, there was a glint of red, this spoke volumes on the child's maturity.
"Uh.. hello Great Elder!" The child said with a smile, to this Wuji's eyebrows twitched.
This kid is calling me 'Great' Elder. Really. Your talent compared to mine is equivalent of a pond to a ocean.
"Your father has asked me to teach you, so from now on I will personally overwatch your cultivation!" Wuji declared honorably.
".. Master. Okay.. Are you sure?" The child responded, Wuji's heart sunk.
Does this kid not want my teaching? I am the only master of my level left.. everyone else has ascended or died.
"Yes child, I'm quite sure. In fact I have already prepared a training regime that will boost your cultivation up to the Sense Cleansing realm!"
The kid's eyes shown and he stared with surprise.
"This doesn't come without a condition however, I will need complete honesty about your origin and how you tricked the heavens into giving you such a talent hehe, but other than that I have one more condition that you must accept."
The kid thought to himself for quite a while.
"I can't accept the first condition, I have a prior promise with someone else.. as for your second, as long as it has nothing to do with my talent, this disciple will accept!"
Interesting.. this kid. It seems his origin is one that is unknown, his father probably doesn't even know.
"I.. plan to take revenge on the heavens. I'd like you to assist me."
The child's eyes widened and his mouth gaped in shock, until eventually a smirk was replaced.
"Yes. I accept."
Hahahahaha it looks like although the heavens have forsaken me, the devil hasn't! Perfect! Perfect! Let's see them win out against this child's talent!
"For starters.. what footwork do you know? Cultivation is a simple matter, we should have you learn the martial skills first."
Once I have this child master these martial skills, I will impart my life's cultivation to him! He'll be able to absorb half of it, but with his talent it won't take long to be my equal.
"Floating Rose."
Interesting.. Floating Rose is a B Class footwork, its strengths obviously outweighs its flaws, but if there's one small misstep, it will destroy the boy.
"How long did it take for you to learn such a footwork?"
"3 Years."
3 Years! This would take a B class talent 30! Truly remarkable.
"It seems you're qualified.. I will teach you my personal footwork. Gentle Ascension!"
