Heath, Sterling, and the representatives from the seven clans fell silent. Their faces displayed a strange mix of confusion and disbelief.

All of them were skilled fighters. Although they had not yet entered the Martial Sovereign realm, they would be formidable opponents for those below that level with few able to match their strengths. Thus, Sierra’s assertion that the owner of the Silverleaf plants could defeat them all seemed like an exaggeration.

Only Otto furrowed his brow, lost in thought.

“Leander?”

This name sounded unfamiliar to him. Given the influence of the Hall of the Healing Sage, he had heard of many masters within the three provinces of Cloudveil. Yet, Leander was a name he had never encountered.

“Could he be from the Ashcroft family of Highcliffe?”

His mind raced, suddenly recalling the prominent Ashcroft family. He realized that the ability to cultivate such a large number of Silverleaf plants must indeed come from them.

At this realization, he sharply inhaled. His expression grew serious.

“If these Silverleaf plants belong to the Ashcroft family, things could become complicated. If we act rashly and provoke Gareth, even the master would struggle to contend with him.”

Gareth was revered as the top martial arts master of Astria. He was the foremost among “The Four Extremes.” Even the master of the Hall of the Healing Sage had acknowledged that he was no match for Gareth.

“Hmph. Who is this Leander? A nobody trying to intimidate us?”

As Otto pondered, a young man stepped forward behind him, snorting derisively.

He had no regard for the “Leander” mentioned by Sierra.

With the strength of the Hall of the Healing Sage, they did not fear the seven clans. Why would they be intimidated by a nameless boy? In his eyes, this so–called “Leander” was merely a lucky rich kid who stumbled upon Silverleaf and decided to cultivate it.

Such a person was someone he could easily crush without breaking a sweat.

Moreover, Silverleaf was incredibly valuable. Even if a martial arts master arrived, they would never back down.

The current assembly was formidable. Unless a Martial Sovereign showed up, no one could expect to defeat them all.

Furthermore, even if a Martial Sovereign came, they would have to consider who was backing the Hall of the Healing Sage and the Great Seven Martial Clans of Cloudveil. All had Martial Sovereigns in their ranks. Who among ordinary Martial Sovereigns could withstand going up against eight Martial Sovereign realm masters?

“You little girl, do not challenge our patience with your ignorance. This matter does not concern you, so step aside. Your betters are speaking, and you have no place here!”

The young man shot a cold glance, releasing a faint aura that caused Sierra to step back in fright. Seeing this, Brittany stepped forward, protectively positioning herself in front of Sierra, which eased Sierra’s anxiety.

Noticing Brittany’s defiance, the young man smirked before retreating. With the Princess of the Hall of the Healing Sage present, he did not want to provoke unnecessary trouble. Otherwise, given his temperament, he would have already challenged the other young martial artists from rival sects.

“Is this the eldest disciple of the Hall of the Healing Sage, Lorcan Blythe?”

Brittany quietly murmured, recognizing his face.

The Hall of the Healing Sage had two prodigious disciples. One was Theresa Fleming, the daughter of the hall master, Roman Fleming. The other was Lorcan, the eldest disciple.

While they were all brilliant martial artists, Brittany and Levi paled in comparison to Theresa and Lorcan, who stood as equals to “The Nine Geniuses” in Astria.

“Lorcan, enough. She is just a little girl who has not seen much of the world. Why should we bother with her?”

A young woman behind Otto spoke in a graceful manner. Her voice was ethereal, like that of a celestial being.

Draped in sheer fabric, her face remained obscured, but her captivating eyes and delicate skin hinted at her extraordinary beauty.

Lorcan nodded, showing no inclination to argue. Clearly, he deeply respected her opinion.

He had long admired her but had never revealed his feelings, knowing he did not measure up to her standards.

In her heart, she had already chosen an unparalleled genius, someone far superior to him. That individual was the “crown prince” of the Ashcroft family of Highcliffe.

Ethan, one of The Nine Geniuses.

While Lorcan felt jealousy toward Ethan, he could not deny Ethan’s strength.

Ethan was younger than him but was already approaching the Martial Sovereign realm. He had even defeated a well–known peak Grandmaster, something Lorcan could never achieve.

Ethan was famous, celebrated as the greatest talent in Astria. Along with Daphne of the Florian family, he was the cream of the crop among the younger generation. He was also on par with Claire, the supreme swordswoman of the Silvermoon Sect. Even the master of the Hall of the Healing Sage had claimed that these three would lead the future of martial arts in Astria.

Countless gifted young men vied for the young woman’s affection, but no one ever garnered her attention. It was only when Ethan’s name was mentioned that her demeanor brightened, and she would speak with enthusiasm. This drove Lorcan mad with jealousy, yet he felt powerless to change the situation.

Ethan was the son of Gareth, the greatest master of Astria.

In the eyes of all Astria, even a Martial Sovereign would hesitate before confronting Ethan. What could Lorcan hope to do against such a force?

“Your Highness, should we continue to wait, or should we take action now?”

Otto rethought his earlier stance. The Ashcroft family was far away in Highcliffe. Even if they cultivated Silverleaf plants, they could not possibly have brought them this far.

He set aside his concerns and looked to the coldly beautiful young woman, seemingly seeking her opinion.

The young woman was Theresa, the only daughter of the hall master and regarded as the most extraordinary talent in the Hall of the Healing Sage over the past century. She was known as the “Princess of the Hall of the Healing Sage.”

“Let us wait a bit longer and see how the seven clans handle this. If it comes down to it, we may have no choice but to intervene.”

Theresa’s voice was cool, and her eyes remained unfazed, as if she was already prepared for what lay ahead.

“Oh? This is the Princess of the Hall of the Healing Sage then.”

Sterling, who stood nearby, turned his gaze and expressed his admiration.

“Princess Theresa is indeed breathtaking and possesses a remarkable presence. After seeing her today, I understand why our young master cannot forget her after their first meeting.

“When will you be free, Princess Theresa? We would be honored to have you at the Peterson family. Our young master has been longing to see you!”

Theresa’s expression remained indifferent, her gaze lowering.

“Are you referring to Dominic Peterson?”

In the next moment, her tone turned icy.
