The Supreme God

Elder Luo argued again. It looked like he had made up his mind to prevent Austin from becoming a principal disciple.

"Elder Luo, please remember that Austin has beaten Timothy here in public, fair and square, with so many witnesses watching. If we really cancel his qualification as per your proposal, what would the others say about us? There would be no integrity to our Sun Sect anymore!"

Elder Jiang questioned Luo angrily. His hot temper was making it difficult to bear the injustice that Elder Luo was looking to mete out.

"If we can get a real genius to the Sect by sacrificing just a little fame that our Sect enjoys, then it completely makes sense! I think you are considering fame more than anything else. Am I right, Elder Jiang?"

Elder Luo said, his voice silky and eerily elegant, giving out the impression that he was really pressing for justice.

"Fair points from both of you. But please stop arguing and listen to me for a minute. Three years ago, Austin was attacked and badly injured. His brain was hurt at that time and he lost a lot of himself.

I've heard that after the attack, for a long time, his cultivation base was stuck at the third level of the Energy Gathering Realm.

And I also heard that, around two months ago, his sanity was suddenly restored to normal. And his cultivation base was back to the ninth level of Energy Gathering Realm after only two months' cultivation. Just think about it. He has progressed from the third level to the ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm in just two months! Such a cultivation speed already proves that he is a rare martial arts genius!"

This revelation took the Elders' collective breath away. Breaking through six levels in two months! Such speed and skill could only be described as genius.

If there was a word higher than that, even that couldn't be enough to describe the talent that Austin was exhibiting.

"From this point of view, Austin doesn't really seem like a normal person," one Elder commented.

"Rising up six levels in two months still feels too good to be true, even if he was once at the ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm. But he can really be considered a super genius!" another Elder said thoughtfully.
