As Gravis approached the entrance of the Freya Clan, two guards slowly walked over to him with smiles. They were both at the initial Stage of Spirit Forming. "Welcome, friend from the Lightning Sect!" They shouted with friendliness.

Gravis was still wearing the clothing and emblem of the Lightning Sect, which allowed them to identify him as one of its disciples. "Hello, and thank you," said Gravis back. "But today, I didn't come as someone from the Lightning Sect, but just as myself."

The guards looked at each other with uncertainty. Visitors only said something like this if they didn't want to implicate the powers behind them, which would only happen if the visitor planned something nefarious. Yet, luckily, they didn't jump to conclusions.

"Then, what brings you here?" one of the guards asked with caution, stealthily readying a Jade Token. If this Jade Token were destroyed, it would probably activate a Formation Array. Of course, Gravis noticed the guard's actions.

Gravis smiled uncomfortably. "Don't worry," he said, lifting both of his arms to show that he didn't want to attack them. "You might have misunderstood. A girl named Joyce and someone she called teacher helped me around three years ago in the Outer-Continent, and I'm here to repay that favor."

When the guards heard that, they released a big sigh of relief. Seeing that Gravis was from the Lightning Sect, they knew that he wouldn't lie about something like this. The guards bowed politely. "We're sorry for the disrespect."

Gravis waved his hand dismissively with a smile. "Don't worry. I get how my words could be misinterpreted. Misunderstandings happen, and there's no reason to dwell on them. Anyway, can I meet Joyce?"

The guards smiled again. "Sure! Please enter," one of them said. After saying that, the gate opened, allowing Gravis to enter. "Someone will come soon to welcome you," one of them said. They had already informed their superiors about a powerful visitor. After all, they only had around ten people at the Seed Stage in their entire Clan. A visitor with such power would only be weaker than the Patriarch and Grand Elder, who were both at the Sapling Stage.

Gravis slowly walked through the gates. He didn't look around since he had already inspected the whole Clan with his Spirit. The guards didn't follow. A lot of people were walking around. They were trading, talking, some kids were playing, and the whole Freya Clan radiated a sense of harmony.

After some seconds passed, one of the guards transmitted something to the other one. "Huh, another one of Miss Joyce's investments. Though, this one is quite powerful. Who would have expected that one of her investments would manage to reach the Seed Stage."

The other guard nodded but then furrowed his brows. "Wait. Didn't he say that Miss Joyce had helped him three years ago in the Outer-Continent?"

The first guard shrugged. "Yeah, what about it?"

"The Outer-Continent has no one in the Spirit Forming Realm and only very few people in the Magic Gathering Realm. This means that he had to have been in the Body Tempering Realm when they met. Doesn't that mean that the visitor reached the Seed Stage from the Body Tempering Realm in only three years?" he asked with narrowed eyes.
