Walker Of The Worlds

High Elder Juxue hadn't expected to meet someone like Lin Mu today. He had seen several talented people over the years, but it was always refreshing to see new youngsters.

"May I ask High Elder Juxue something?" Lin Mu questioned, making the old man focused on him. "Of course, you can choose to reject me. I shall not make any demands." He added.

"Go ahead, junior." High Elder Juxue permitted. "As long as it is reasonable, I don't see a reason to deny."

"Then… can you tell me the reason for the change in the tournament's progress?" Lin Mu finally questioned.

"Mmm?" High Elder Juxue was surprised that Lin Mu asked him this.

To others, asking questions to a High Elder of the temple of the guardian beasts was a rare opportunity. After all, this was a Seventh Tribulation Stage immortal Realm expert.

There were not many like him, that too at his unique position. Thus it was normal for cultivators to ask about their doubts or for insight into Qi skills or cultivation techniques.

It was a rare chance of getting guidance from one of the top experts.

And yet, Lin Mu had asked something that most others wouldn't even bother with.

To the others, the week-long break was just a good opportunity to rest and cultivate.

It would give them the chance to recover from the several week long fight in the spatial planes as well as reevaluate their opponents.

If anything, they would wish that they can get a longer break so that they can prepare better. Even top rankers would wish to learn about the performance of their opponents to get to know them better.

They all knew that others would have ended up revealing a part of their skills and trump cards during the fights in the Spatial Plane. This would give them a good chance to obtain an insight into their opponents.

Even a slight advantage could change the course of the battle, thus it was natural for them to want to know more.

Lin Mu was analyzing the high Elder's expression the entire time and could tell that the man didn't seem to care much about his question.

'At least this is good. He isn't offended about it, which means it's nothing too bad.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

High Elder Juxue went silent for a moment, before finally replying.
