Chapter 280


    Omar gave a detailed exnation of Caspian’s doubts.


    “He’s that amazing.


    I’ve seen Xander defeat an outer disciple in the Immortal Soldiers Arena before, and Xander still


    appeared energetic after the battle.


    However, an ordinary person is no match for Xander.


    The person’s training is really… Sigh Even I feel bad for him.


    Forget it.


    Let’s not talk about it anymore.


    Otherwise, I might have nightmares.”


    Since Omar was unwilling to continue further as if there was something unspeakable, Caspian did not


    force him either.


    Then, he secretly calcted.


    A mid-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple could defeat at least five entry-level first-stage


    disciples.


    A peak first-stage disciple could defeat at least five mid-level first-stage disciples.


    After reaching the second-stage Pulse Control Realm, the disciple’s strength could exceed more than


    ten peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm disciples due to the increase in meridians.


    If Xander could win against a second-stage Pulse Control Realm outer disciples, that meant that his


    strength was ten times stronger than the disciples of the same realm!


    After giving it careful thought, it was indeed terrifying.


    ‘It’s no wonder he could continuously win the title of the spiritual apprentice list rankingpetition.

    Xander’s strength is the best among the apprentices,’ Caspian replied as he nodded his head.


    “No matter what, let’s just hope for the best in the uing spiritual apprentice list ranking


    competition.


    Besides Maya, the rest of us don’t need to worry about meeting Xander before the top ten.


    However, once we enter the top ten, we’re on our own.


    After all, meeting Xander was equivalent to being eliminated.


    Sigh.


    That guy’s strength is too abnormal,” Omar said, smacking his lips.


    Omar might seem to bementing, but Caspian noticed his tone was not as solemn as expected when


    he talked about Xander’s formidable strength.


    Looking at Omar’s two longswords, Caspian quickly realized that Omar probably was yet to show his


    true power until now, and he surely had some reservations.


    After all, being ranked among the top was not just achievable through hard work, and Omar must have


    a secret too, like Maya’s innate me Phoenix Physique or even mastering a particr secret


    cultivation technique.


    Even Caspian had his secrets.


    Besides his hard work, those secrets yed a huge role in making him enter the top ten of the spiritual


    apprentice list in his firstpetition.


    Caspian could not help but secretly sigh, “None of them are easypetitors.”


    After bbering for almost two hours, Omar and Maya bade goodbye.


    At that time, Omar’s talkative nature was shown to its fullest, causing Maya not to have any chance to


    talk much with Caspian.


    When they left, Maya’s gaze was full of grievance, and Caspian felt somewhat apologetic.


    Nheless, Caspian could not just sew Omar’s mouth shut, and he was unaware of how talkative


    Omar was.


    After sending off the two of them, Caspian returned to his courtyard.


    There were three more days left until the uing spiritual apprentice list rankingpetition, and


    Caspian was deep in his thoughts.


    Due to the Cultivation State and falling unconsciousst time, Caspian did not have a chance to fight


    with the strongest apprentices, which was one of Caspian’s regrets.


    Hence, Caspian was adamant about not wasting the opportunity three dayster.


    Only through battling with the strong would Caspian test his strength and gain more experience.


    Caspian was deep in thoughts as he would to his courtyard.


    Suddenly, he heard something piercing through the air behind him, followed by a feminine shout, “Idiot


    Casper! Watch out for the sword!”


    Swoosh!


    A ray of long sword light seemed to appear out of thin air, shing behind Caspian, stabbing through


    the back of Caspian’s head.


    “Ahh!” Lucy’s figure soon appeared, and her adorable face was ashen.


    Then, with one hand holding the sword and the other covering her mouth, Lucy mumbled, “I… I killed


    Casper! You idiot! Why didn’t you dodge!”


    Lucy hid there for a while as she wanted to scare Caspian.


    After all, no matter how smart Caspian was, he would not have thought Lucy, who was far away in the


    Dark Moon Sect, would suddenly appear behind him and sneak an attack.


    Besides that, Lucy even imagined the scene where Caspian was scared until he wet his pants.


    However, Caspian did not even dodge her, but she even stabbed through his head.


    “I’m doomed! If Lady Jessica finds out I killed her fiancé, she’ll surely kill me.


    What should I do? What should I…” Lucy pouted, and she was on the verge of crying.


    “Casper, you’ve suffered a miserable death! I didn’t do it on purpose…”


    “Who suffered a miserable death?”


    Lucy suddenly heard a voice from behind her ears.


    The gentle breath that blew on her earlobe made Lucy quiver, and even her hair stood on ends.


    Then, Lucy quickly ran away and shouted, “Who’s that?!”


    However, she was stunned the next second.


    “Idiot!”


    The initially giggling Caspian stood in front of Lucy, and his face immediately turned gloomy.


    “Who are you calling an idiot?”


    “You…” Before Lucy could finish her words, she immediately realized something and stomped her feet


    in anger.


    “How dare you trick me?! Ahh! That’s not right! Aren’t you supposed to be dead?”


    “If I can’t even notice your stab, how can I catch your Lady’s heart?” Caspian pointed to one side.


    Then, Lucy turned her head to look over and noticed that a shadow was slowly disappearing.


    At that time, Lucy finally understood that she only stabbed through Caspian’s afterimage.


    Furthermore, as Caspian’s speed was too fast, the phantom only disappeared after a long while.


    When Caspian saw Lucy’s face full of surprise, puzzlement, doubts, and embarrassment, Caspian’s


    heart moved slightly.


    Caspian indeed suffered a lot in the Mirefield Gate battle.


    However, since he returned, he improved, and even his Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows was refined too.


    Before that, the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows was also improved due to the founder of the Heavenly


    Stars Sect’s blessing.


    Following Caspian‘s mental and physical growth that time, it could also show more diversified strength.


    The technique Caspian used to avoid Lucy’s sword was also one of the examples of improvement.


    Even though Lucy stabbed Caspian, it was a lifelike afterimage.


    Moreover, that phantom couldst about five seconds.


    It might seem like a short time, but that was more than enough time for a cultivator to cut their enemy


    into pieces.


    Just as when Lucy thought she mistakenly killed Caspian, Caspian could turn her to meat pulp as she


    cried.


    Lucy was annoyed when she saw Caspian smiling at her, and her face instantly flushed.


    Then, she pounced at Caspian angrily.


    “You’re something else, idiot Casper! How dare you mock me and even say you caught my Lady‘s


    heart.


    Tell me the truth! When did you be such a sweet-talker!”


    Lucy was like a tiny pink tiger cub pouncing at Caspian.


    Initially, Lucy only wanted to scare Caspian, but she once again underestimated Caspian’s strength.


    As Caspian used the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows to move to the side slightly, the petite Lucy was


    instantly grabbed by the waist and ced under Caspian’s armpit.


    With her little legs kicking nonstop, Lucy appeared flustered but adorable.
