Treasure Hunting

When she saw the Blazing Egg in Zachary's hand, Sara could not help but marvel. She did not want to show it, but the surprise on her eyes could not be hidden.

"Ahem." Zachary cleared his throat to get the lady's attention back to him rather than the egg. "Have I convinced you now, Master Beauty?"

Sara immediately recovered from her surprise and replied, "Very well. I'll keep my word and give you an extra reward." She took out a booklet. "This Ghost Palm is a martial art at the premium stage of Heaven Level. There are three moves in total. Learn and master all those three and even an opponent whose cultivation is one or two levels higher than yours will fall under your feet," she stated.

Murmurs started to arise in the crowd. Everyone was shifting uncomfortably in their seat, surprised with everything that transpired before them.

The martial arts in the Supernal Continent were divided into three stages: primary stage, medium stage, and premium stage. In terms of power, most of the time, the martial art at the premium stage were better than the ones at the other stages. But because of other factors influencing a battle, a warrior using martial arts at the primary stage might be able to defeat one using martial arts at the premium stage.

Because of its simplicity, the martial arts at the primary stage were the most used and taught in the Supernal Continent. Aside from being easy to learn and master, they also required less martial energy compared to those at the other stages. For example, the martial energy used to perform three moves of martial arts at the primary stage would be equivalent to the energy used to execute just one move of a martial art at the premium stage. If one decided to attack their opponent with a move from a martial art at the premium stage and the opponent successfully defended himself, it would put the attacker to a disadvantage since he had lost a lot of martial energy and was unable to attack again. This was why the martial arts at the primary stage were widely used. Although they were less powerful, they required less martial energy and allowed more flexibility during battles.

With this factor at hand, no martial art could be considered the most powerful in the Supernal Continent, even if it was one at the premium stage.

But if someone could learn and master martial arts at the premium stage, then it might be able to turn the tables at critical moments.

So when Sara offered to give Zachary a martial art at the premium stage of Heaven Level, the other disciples were all green with envy. Even Bruce had a tight expression on his face.

"Hmm. Sounds interesting," Zachary replied. "If that's the case, then let me accept this reward from you."

Satisfied with the reply she got, Sara carefully handed the Blazing Egg and the manual on Ghost Palm to Zachary. "There is one more thing," she said. "I know you already have triple martial speed, but I think you are still far behind the disciples in Celestial College. Let me help and give you some important tips then. Come with me."
