Wanting a peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple to defeat an entry-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple was still possible if the first-stage cultivator could improve his realm.
Moreover, there was almost no chance of winning for the lower realm disciple against the higher realm opponent.
As Caspian only ascended to the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm a few days ago, he could not be promoted to the second stage even if he utilized the Time Warp Zone.
Hence, Adrian might seem like he gave Caspian a chance, it was still a dead end.
The disciple named Anderson Paltrow hugged his arms in front of him, looked at Caspian, and snorted.
“Why don’t we just do it today? It won’t be any different if we do it today or next month.”
However, Caspian did not spare a glance at Anderson, and he reminded Adrian, “Remember what you said today!”
After saying that, Caspian pulled Maisie away.
In the entire process, Caspian treated Anderson as if he did not exist.
That caused Anderson’s breathing to become more rapid, and his nostrils expanded as if he were a bull, filled with rage.
The visit to the Dazzling Stars Palace failed to solve their problem, yet it even made the issue bigger.
Hence, Maisie’s face did not look so great, and the two of them walked in silence on their way back.
As they walked, Maisie suddenly noticed Caspian stopped in his tracks, and she looked up, only to find that Caspian looked at her, asking, “Maisie, are you okay?”
Maisie bit her lower lip, shaking her head.
“It’s my fault.
In the end, you still need to settle it yourself.”
Maisie was not dumb, and she naturally understood that Caspian spoke up to cover her as Adrian bullied her.
However, Caspian and Adrian’s conflict also deepened due to that.
“It seems that Adrian utterly resents you.” At the thought of how Caspian managed to send Adrian into a rage, Maisie chuckled.
Caspian smiled.
“Well, I’ll need your help more from now onward.”
Maisie nodded and calmed herself down, replying, “Casper, after giving it a thought, I find that some of the problems might arise from my side.”
“Eh?” Caspian looked at Maisie in confusion.
“Let’s talk while we walk.” It was apparent that Maisie was unwilling to stay near the Dazzling Stars Palace for long, so she used the excuse to explain her thoughts.
Once Caspian heard Maisie’s speculations, he immediately understood that the conflict with Asher was only part of it, and the other was due to the influence at Maisie’s side.
To make it simpler, it was due to the Heavenly Stars Sect’s partisanship.
The Heavenly Stars Sect’s top 18 outstanding figures would join hands to fight enemies outside, but internally, they were divided into three factions, conservative, radical and neutral.
There was no explanation needed for the neutral faction.
The conservative faction mainly consisted of the older outstanding elders.
They believed that the Heavenly Stars Sect should firmly maintain their advantages in inscriptions and formations to continue gaining a foothold in Earlington of Efrax.
The Dazzling Stars Palace’s Frankie belonged to the conservatives.
On the other hand, the radical faction was dominated by the younger outstanding elders, and they thought although the foundation of the Heavenly Stars Sect’s settlement was due to inscriptions and formations, they should develop strong combat skills too.
After all, the entire sect’s combat skills were the foundation for the sect to stand tall in Efrax and even the whole continent.
If the sect were not strong in combat, the inscriptions and formations would only be for the use of other sects.
Maisie‘s master belonged to the radicals.
Before Caspian entered the Heavenly Stars Sect, he was already favored by Maisie, and they were really close.
