The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 35

He had been waiting for almost an hour. But the middle-aged man kept meditating and paid no attention to Austin.

After patiently waiting for an hour, Austin decided he should greet the middle-aged man. Just as he was about to speak with the middle-aged man, Marvin Su and his team arrived.

When Lara Tang saw the humble-looking middle-aged man, she furrowed her brow and asked Marvin Su, "All we need to do is to hand the Jade Badge to this man, right? But he is not sleeping, is he?"

At those words, Marvin Su hushed her.

The outer disciples who came to practice at Beast Mountain called the middle-aged man the mountain keeper.

Lara Tang had no idea who he was. But after adventuring into Beast Mountain several times, Marvin Su knew the mountain keeper was not as simple as he looked.

Two years ago, a Diabolic Unicorn at the third level suddenly appeared in Beast Mountain and took the lives of many Sun Sect disciples.

At last, a man came forward and killed that third-level Diabolic Unicorn. That man was the seemingly inconspicuous mountain keeper.

Numerous Sun Sect disciples witnessed that brutal fight, and one of them was Marvin Su.

That third-level beast was as fierce as a man at the eighth or ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm.

Nevertheless, when that mountain keeper dealt with the beast, it seemed as vulnerable as a child. In the blink of an eye, the mountain keeper had destroyed the creature.

That was when the outer disciples realized that the mountain keeper who sat under the huge tree day in and day out had strength that was not inferior to that of some elders in their sect.

Marvin Su carefully walked up to the mountain keeper and stated respectfully, "Senior, we're outer disciples who have ventured here for adventures."

A moment later, the middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Marvin Su and the others.

His eyes reflected no emotions. But in the next second, the disciples felt pressure wrapping around them.

The pressure was a sign of the huge gap between their cultivation bases. Under its effect, all the disciples quivered, and some whose willpower was not very strong felt their knees give out.

"Hm."

After glimpsing at them, the mountain keeper said flatly, "Hand me your Jade Badge. If you survive the adventure and return alive, I'll give you the contribution credits you deserve based on your performance."

The disciples did not dare to say another word. They took out their Jade Badges and handed it to the mountain keeper, one by one.

Lara Tang, though pompous, was not stupid. By now, she had noticed that the mountain keeper was at a level much higher than her.

With that in mind, her previous rude attitude evaporated in an instant. Now, she behaved and acted like an obedient kitty.

In a world where only strength prevailed, the weak were irrelevant to the strong.

If a cultivator unintentionally upset a man at a higher level, he might invite harsh treatment in return.

The Jade Badge was the identity proof of each Sun Sect disciple. It was also the symbol of their status. Besides that, it served as a record of their contribution credits as well.
