Skye immediately said, "Look at that. Look! Even the fatty understands things better than you people! Let's go. The sky has turned dark, and we better go back to training. We might really get into a fight two days after this."
Angus smiled bitterly and said, "We might get into a fight, huh? Haha... Judging by the First Fortress Master's attitude, there's only a slim chance that we'll battle, and not long after that, the people from the Pavilion Billow Cloud will arrive. By then, it'll only be a negotiation between both parties!”
Hendrick also said, "That's right. On top of that, we can't break through within a couple of days, so training is useless."
Meanwhile, a man arrived before the First
Fortress Master.
The First Fortress Master looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and slowly said, "How is it? What's the situation in the forest?"
The middle-aged man gestured politely with his hands and said, "They’ve started fighting. The people from the Bloodshed Clan arrived in the morning and they sent a sizable group of disciples into the area, but I'm not sure what's going on in the forest right now. Regardless, it sounded as though battles occurred everywhere, and the noises ceased not long after they began. It looks like those people who entered this area don't have a high fighting prowess."
"How's that possible? What’s the harm to us if we do something a little later? In my opinion, it benefits us no matter what it is. We'll be able to report to the Pavilion Billow Cloud, and the Bloodshed Clan will be weakened. What's so bad about that?" Austin frowned, evidently not understanding the middle-aged man's train of thoughts.
Only then did the middle-aged man say, “ Think about it. These people must have entered the forest around one month ago, no? If that's the case, they must've obtained quite a number of spirited grass from the area. Although they've used quite a number of these items, they'll still have the martial skills, spirited grass, or martial art technique they obtained. How much martial enhancement material is there when there are so many of them?"
As Austin listened to what the man said, he understood the meaning behind the conversation before the man continued speaking. Austin then said, his expression dark, "I understand what you're trying to say. Those martial enhancement materials will belong to the members of the Bloodshed Clans after the outsiders are killed by their disciples, and they won’t hand them to us.”
