The Martial Unity

A few days later, his grandmother finally returned from wherever it was that she went. She heaved a tired sigh upon return, taking a good long rest.

Naturally, Rui couldn't contain his curiosity.

"How'd it go, grandmother?" He asked once she had recuperated for some time.

"Hmph, the Martial Sages of Kandria were stronger than I had expected. But I still managed to secure rank four."

Rui's eyes lit up at those words. "You mean you beat seven of them?!"

As far as Rui was concerned, that was incredible.

Martial Sages of the Kandrian Empire were stronger than their peers for the same reason that Kandrian Martial Artists of other Realms were also stronger than the average Martial Artist.

The Kandrian Empire had better everything as far as Martial Art went.

Thus, the fact that his grandmother was able to defeat seven of them and rank fourth was quite incredible. This was especially the case when she had recently broken through to the Sage Realm and did not possess as much experience with the Sage Realm as the Martial Sages of the Martial Union.

It was all thanks to the potency of her Martial Art.

"Most importantly, I managed to defeat that obnoxious woman and restore my pride and the pride of the Silas Clan," she snorted.

"The Hugging Hegemon? You actually beat her?" Rui stared at her incredulously.

"Indeed," Matriarch Nephi heaved a tired sigh. "She was the toughest of the seven to beat."
