The Martial Unity

Rui exited the lecture hall as the staff member waiting outside immediately guided him back to the professor's office. He was deep in thought. He found it a shame that people who had the power to kill Chairman Deacon and even made the offer to take him out only were willing to do so at the price of Rui's servitude.

It was just too much.

Besides, he would rather kill Chairman Deacon himself. It was something he needed to do himself.

He immediately returned to the professor's office, closing the door behind him.

"Shame to know you won't be joining us." The man remarked. "We could do a lot with someone like you amongst our ranks."

Rui shrugged. "You'll have to make do without me. besides, I'm sure there are other brilliant Martial Seniors out there. High-grade and peak Martial Seniors. Surely they can replicate what I did through their own innate capabilities."

"Do you have any idea how few Martial Seniors there are that managed to reach the highest echelons of the Senior Realm?" The professor snorted. "Besides, being the youngest Martial Senior in existence and already being this potent and effective means that you will be a monster when you have time to mature and grow. Are you sure you don't want to join our sect? You'd get quite the privileged position within our ranks you know."

Rui shook his head. "It was not even a remote possibility."

"Shame." The man remarked.

"Let's get back to the matter at hand," Rui said. "I may not be joining the sect, but I will help you clean up the Derschek Region."
