Chapter 191


    Sebastian chatted with Diana for a while outside the courtyard before leaving.


    After that, Diana observed the surroundings.


    Thepound was built at the foot of the mountain, and trees and trails surrounded it.


    The air was full of spiritual Qi.


    However, Sebastian mentioned before that the spiritual Qi there was just slightly thicker than in the


    mortal world.


    Compared to the Heavenly Stars Sect’s sacred spots, the aura here would be as light as water.


    Naturally, Diana wanted to train in a ce with a high concentration of spiritual Qi, but that ce was


    enough for him then.


    ‘The apprentices live in such a courtyard, and on the way up here, I’ve also noticed simr buildings.


    It’ll take at least fifteen minutes to travel from one building to another… It seems that the Heavenly


    Stars Sect’s area is much bigger than I imagined.’


    Then, Diana walked around thepound, and he only went in once he understood the surrounding


    layout.


    As he walked into the courtyard, Diana immediately saw a spacious open space with a few equipment


    and weapons.


    It appeared to be a small battlefield for the apprentices who lived here to practice.


    After the open space was a one-story wooden house, which seemed to be roomy.


    When he walked in, he realized that there was only one room in the wooden house.


    It was only decorated with six beds, three tables, a few chairs, and nothing more.


    Among the six beds, five of them had beddings.


    Hence, it was apparent that the remaining one was Diana’s.


    Just as Diana was done changing into the apprentice uniform that he just received, the door was


    pushed open, and five figures walked in.


    Diana was about to greet them when the five apprentices approached him in a domineering manner.


    With his hands crossed in front of him, the leading apprentice looked at Diana and asked, “You’re the


    neer, Casper Montgomery?”


    When Diana wore the white apprentice uniform, he appeared elegant and handsome.


    However, on the tall and burly guy, it was as if the clothes would break at any time, and it was not


    attractive at all.


    Nheless, it seemed as if the disciple did not care about it at all.


    Even as he was crossing his arms, his clothes were making a tearing sound.


    “Yes, I am.” Diana nodded.


    “What realm are you in?” A cunning and ugly-looking disciple beside him hurriedly asked.


    “First stage of the Pulse Control Realm,” Diana paused, “Entry-level.”


    Since they were all apprentices, they were naturally in the first stage of the Pulse Control Realm, but


    the only differences would be their levels, which were entry-level, mid-level, and peak.


    When the five disciples heard that Diana was an entry-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator,


    they immediately appeared rxed.


    The tall and burly man who spoke before walked toward a bed and sat arrogantly.


    Then, the other four stood beside him, two on each side.


    The five apprentices looked at Diana as if they were interrogating a criminal.


    “I’m Samuel Woods.


    From now onward, you’re going to regard me as your senior.” Samuel clenched his fists, and a crisp


    cracking sound was heard.


    The four of them quickly tried to tter him.


    As if he was afraid that Diana would not submit, Samuel grinned.


    “I’m at the peak of the first-stage Pulse Control Realm.”


    Initially, Samuel was also an entry-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, and he was no


    different than the four other people around him.


    However, Samuel was always cruel, and he also had support in the Heavenly Stars Sect.


    Hence, he naturally became the little boss of these few people.


    A few days ago, he managed to improve his realm by chance, and he achieved the mid-level of the


    first-stage Pulse Control Realm, making him firmly secure the seat as their leader.


    Therefore, Samuel was naturally not bothered about Diana’s realm.


    After all, although realms were not the only criterion of strength in the world of cultivators, those with a


    lower realm would inevitably be weaker, and this was the truth.


    Diana indifferently nced at Samuel, and he did not say a word.


    Seeing his behavior, Samuel frowned and coldly said, “Casper, we’ll be training under the same room


    from now onward.


    I don’t need to say much about other things, but I’m sure you understand the neer’s rules.”


    Diana did not know what the rule was but seeing Samuel’s expression and action as well as his


    behavior, it was nothing good.


    Hence, Diana faked a smile and answered, “I don’t understand.”


    “You!” Samuel’s eyes shed with anger, and he hinted at the cunning look disciple that spoke before.


    The guy bowed at Samuel and gradually approached Ludwig.


    “Casper, I’m warning you to know your boundaries.


    There are five people here, and everyone came in before you and is much stronger than you.

    If you want to cultivate peace, you should know how to judge the situation.


    Let me teach you a lesson on what you should do.


    From this month onward, the spirit stone that you obtained this year as a neer must be given to


    Samuel, and in the first half of the year, you must help Samuel and us finish our sect missions.”


    Giving them all the spirit stone in the first year here was equivalent to losing cultivation resources.


    Furthermore, if he had toplete their missions and his tasks in the first half of the year, he would not


    have any time for training.


    If Diana followed this guy’s order, Diana’s realm might be stagnant, but that group of people would


    receive resources and more cultivating time.


    In the long term, the gap between these disciples’ realms and strength with Diana’s would only get


    bigger.


    At that time, it might be impossible for Diana to turn this around, and they would only bully him further.


    “Casper, we’re only trying to warn you gently, so it’s better for you just to follow our orders, or you’ll


    have to face the consequences.


    After all, we’re going to live with each other for a long time,” then, the cunning-looking disciple added


    menacingly, “Moreover, it won’t be great if something bad were to happen.”


    The disciple’s threat made Diana burst intoughter.


    Then, he looked at the cunning-looking disciple and smiled, “Are you threatening me?”


    “I’m just warning you.” The cunning-looking disciple was running out of patience.


    “Casper, hurry up and hand over your spirit stone!”


    Looking at his face, it was obvious that the cunning-looking disciple was going to rob Ludwig.


    “I don’t want to.” Diana smiled, but it did not reach his eyes.


    “If you have the guts,e and snatch it from me.”


    Samuel frowned and shouted, “Teach him a lesson!” Then, he sneered.


    “Just make sure you don’t kill him.


    I still need people to finish my missions.”


    “Of course!” the cunning-looking disciple smiled faintly, and he swiftly pointed the finger at Diana’s


    chest, “The Falling Star Finger!”


    A finger swept across, and even the air was torn open, causing an ear-splitting st.


    The finger could easily poke a hole through a steel bar as wide as a palm.


    This disciple’s movements were extremely fast, but it was as slow as a snail in Diana’s eyes.


    Moreover, the disciple’s attitude fully angered Ludwig.


    Diana snorted.


    He reached out and sessfully grabbed onto the cunning-looking disciple’s finger and snapped it


    backward.


    Soon, a cracking sound of bones shattering came, and the disciple’s index finger was sticking to the


    back of his hand, bleeding.
