When Caspian put the Scented Phantom Cat’s corpse on the fire, Hadley and Leonard were in a sacred spot in the depths of Heavenly Stars Sect, watching the screen in front of them with surprise.
On the screen, Caspian turned the branch in his hand.
The initially bloody corpse was now golden brown, which looked very appetizing.
“This… This is edible?” Leonard turned to look at the stupefied Hadley.
Logically, one of them was the prestigious head of the Heavenly Stars Sect, and the other was an elder that went through countless life and death situations.
Hence, what else did they not see before?
Even if the mountains collapsed and the seas stopped moving, they would not be surprised.
However, Caspian’s incredible appetite stunned them.
Hadley watched the screen where Caspian took a big bite and chewed hard.
Then, he hesitated and answered, “Should be… Fine…”
After some time, Leonard finally commented with great difficulty, “Don’t you think this disciple had an extraordinary appetite…”
Leonard still appeared as if he were in his late-twenties as the Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivators had the skill to retain youth.
Hadley glanced at Caspian on the screen, and he looked at Leonard’s complicated expression, saying, “Is that a compliment?”
“Somewhat… ” Leonard thought about it and nodded, “At least, this is the first time I’ve seen a disciple who enters the Valley of Death for trial and eats the monster he hunts.
Moreover, he didn’t even add anything and directly roasted it for consumption.”
Although the flesh and blood of monsters were effective for cultivators to replenish vitality, only some of the species could be consumed by cultivators.
After all, most of the monsters had thick skin and flesh, making it hard to chew, and they did not taste great either.
Besides, cultivators could replenish their Qi and blood through precious medicines.
Therefore, cultivators that reached the Pulse Control Realm would usually get the skin, claws, muscles, or bones of the monsters they hunted.
Someone like Caspian, who gorged heartily and without hesitation, was rare.
Otherwise, Hadley and Leonard would not be shocked.
“What about his strength?” Hadley asked again.
That time, Leonard thought about the question for a long time before finally answering, “He has the realm of an apprentice but the strength of an outer disciple… In the last fifty years, only two people have done it.
Even you and I can’t do it so graciously.”
“What about Xander?” Hadley continued.
Leonard looked at Hadley with a curious gaze, “Hadley, aren’t you busy every day? Why do you know so much about the candidates among the apprentices?”
Hadley only smiled but did not answer Leonard.
However, from his expression, Leonard already had a rough estimation.
As the person in charge of the sect, Hadley had to consider much more than others could imagine.
For conservatives and radicals to compete more harmoniously, Hadley must pay attention to every decision made by these two factions as that was a significant event related to the future development of the Heavenly Stars Sect.
Otherwise, he would not have deigned and watched the fight between an apprentice and an outer disciple.
After a moment of silence, Leonard nodded.
“I’ll pay attention to both of them.”
Hadley chuckled.
