Sword God in a World of Magic

Four decades had passed since Shang had taken over as the Town Lord.

The mortal district was thriving with General Stage and Commander Stage warriors.

Over ten of the Commander Stage warriors from the Warrior Academy had already reached the True Path Stage.

Shang had taken all the True Path Stage warriors as his disciples, but only eight actually remained.

Duma had been Shang's first disciple, but Duma had no ambition inside him.

There were a couple of others that also didn't make the cut, but the eight remaining people were hungry for power.

They listened intently to everything Shang told them, and they looked up to him as an icon.

As far as they knew, Shang was the only warrior in the world that managed to reach the Impose Stage!

Even more, Shang knew four different True Paths, four different Imposes, and he was even comprehending a fifth one right now!

They knew that Shang was on a completely different level from them, but because of that, they were also willing to listen to all of his teachings.

Additionally, they were deeply grateful that someone like their Master decided to sacrifice so much time for them and teach them.

Of course, Shang wasn't exactly doing this for them.

Shang's job was to create True Path Stage warriors and Impose Stage warriors.

There were now several people that could teach Commander Stage warriors about reaching the True Path Stage, but as of this moment, there was only a single person that could teach True Path Stage warriors about reaching the Impose Stage.

Because of that, Shang needed to teach these people.
