Chapter 30 - A brand new beginning

In the Nirvana sect,all the disciples were shocked and a few of them even started to pose a few questions. All of them had many questions going through their mind right now,lots of answers are awaiting their discovery.

"Sect master, don't you think that you're being overambitious?"

"Sect master,two years is just not enough no matter how much you think about it!

Nightin kept quiet as he allowed the disciples to rant all they want,some even decided to leave the sect straight away. To them,being in such a sect will only bring them misfortune and cause them their deaths one day. They were still thinking to themselves deep down in their hearts that they're a genius,oblivious to the fact that they're the true idiots.

Soon,about a hundred of the new disciples had left,leaving the hall with only about 300 disciples left,yet it was exactly what Nightin wanted. Talent may be one thing,but if they can't stay faithful to the sect throughout their time here,their presence is redundant.

In fact,it would be a blessing for the sect that such people without any backbone or ambitions left the sect,if they were left behind,they might become a threat to the sect one day.

For those who stayed, they're the ones who have passed the entry test to become a outer disciple,yet they won't know about it yet until they prove to be worthy of the higher rank.

For those who left,they turned back expecting to see many people who are tempted to leave like them or even be hesitant. Yet reality struck them real hard here.

No one turned back to even pay them the slightest attention,just like how a high king will walk last a lowly beggar without even paying him an eye, it's just not worth the time and effort.

Those who left would never know that they have been left out on the ship which will sail to the seven seas. They'll forever be stranded alone on the ocean or sea,near the beach of lakes,forever staying at rock bottom while others are already at the peak.

Those at the bottom wants to gain the attention and recognition of those above,yet all they receive is them being treated as air with their existence unknown to people.

Nightin looked at everyone below him as he stood up and prepared to speak up. Just from the aura he's giving right now,the new disciples felt that they had made the right decision. They had a feeling that their sect leader will lead them to glory and new heights which they had never dare to imagine in the past.

"As the first sect master of the Nirvana sect,I hereby announce the first mission of our sect. From now on, we'll work hard and strive for the upper realm within two years. It might seem impossible,but there's a reason for this. Are you all willing to join me in this seemingly impossible conquest!"

Everyone shouted yes out in unison,at this moment,everyone could feel a flame within their hearts. The flame being their passion,burning vigorously with strength more than ever,the flame which will grant them power and strength. No matter what they won't let it go out of control or the world will go up in flames.

With this,the Nirvana sect has been officially established as a second grade sect in the outside world. As for the middle grade sects competition, they'll have to give it a miss as their participation will ruin the balance between all the competing sects. Their growth speed had outstripped the other sects by a far margin.

They had their eyes set on something else,the battle between King forces. While sects are divided from the first grade to the fifth grade,powers above that are known as King forces,which stands at the apex of the lower realm.

It'll be held one year from now and the number of sect disciples that can participate aren't limited at all. Not only that, it'll be their only chance to attain King within two years time,they had to take the risk by placing their life on the line.

From now on,the sect is known for having a few different choices. The spear path,sword path,bow path and the new assassination path if those who only focuses on the cultivation of heart is excluded.

Aiden has appeared at this time,as for the reason he only appeared now, it's because something cropped up when he was on the way here. He forgot to claim his reward from the city lord,who has sadly already vanished without anyone knowing about it.

Even so, the higher ups of the city and association hall gathered together and decided to reward him with one of the top ten assasination heaven rank skills,Shadow Star.

The reason shadow star only has one copy in the entire world is because those who have tried to copy or bring it to the upper realm have all surprisingly died,resulting in this skill being forgotten gradually over the passage of time and was sealed up as a forbidden skill.

If not for the fact that the skill scroll actually flew out from the seal and entered Aiden's body,they would not have given him the Shadow Star at all cost. It's said that whenever an assassin uses shadow star, he'll be able to instant kill a opponent one major realm above him at the expense of a long period of fatigue.

With this,a new path has appeared for the disciples of the Nirvana sect. The assasination path. As for the entry requirements however,it made most of them gave up immediately after seeing it.

The first being unflinching killing intent, whenever taking a life,it sould be a grave mistake to even let out a smile or a split moment of hesitation. To a true asssassin,one mistake means death. A simple rule that have stayed through since the beginning of time.

Acute observation is also necessary to be wary against any traps while being knowledgeable about how to deal with them. Not only that,one must be capable of blending in with any situation when on a undercover mission.

After a long selection,only two barely passed and succeeded. Aiden looked at Nightin as he sighed while shaking his head "I'm sorry to say,but there's not even one person in the sect worthy of my private teachings. The most they'll receive is some techniques,experience and knowledge that I know about and some others which can be found in the outside world.

Nightin nodded as he told Aiden "Aiden,why don't you head to the outside world alone,just return when its time. I still need your help with the development of the sect."

Aiden got down on his kneels as he said "Your orders have been received" Thanking Nightin for giving him the opportunity to do so, Aiden took off for the outside world. He was still young and has the potential to grow and develop. Even though he wants to serve Nightin,his curiosity and desire to explore the outside world is still hidden deep within his heart.

Right now,Nightin has given him the key to unlock the door within him as he leaves for the place which he wants to.

With Aiden's departure,the sect was still continue its development peacefully. Without facing any troubles,the sect had three days of development without any difficulty.

But of course on the other side,the storm was already brewing. Many powers of the lower realm has already placed the Nirvana sect as a enemy of their sect. If they were to develop and grow, they would lose the resources and dominance which they have built up over the years.

Even though the Nirvana sect might be growing rapidly, it's still far too soon for them to make enemies with a King force. The current them doesn't have the qualifications or strength to do so yet,for now at least.

Back in the Nirvana sect,Isabella stretched her back as she asked Nightin "Hey,is it possible for my older brother to join our sect? In terms of talent,even the current me with the sect's assistance can't compare to him."

Nightin wrinkled his eyebrows,Isabella wasn't the type to ask him for permission and he would usually just let her do whatever she wants as long as she doesn't cross the line. Yet this time however,Isabella actually lowered her pride and asked for permission.

Nightin kept silent as he looked into the horizon. Seeing this,Isabella started to panic and explain "Sect master, it's because my brother current sect is forcing him to sacrifice his Lord energy for the sect's number one disciple. If my brother doesn't join us, he'll be nothing but a puppet of that sect once he loses."

Nightin sighed as he asked Isabella "Which King force is your brother in right now?"

Isabella hurriedly replied,worried that Nightin might take back his decision "The Guards!"

The guards,one of the top five king forces in the lower realm. It's said that their backing is the actual saint force in the upper realm and that they are only a lower branch. Even so,the headquarters won't leave them in the lurch if needed,they still had their pride to keep after all.
