‘It doesn’t make sense. How could that kid do it with just one move? !’

Gwang Sun-young, a child adopted as an adopted daughter at a late age, was by no means a talentless warrior. No, he was better than his seoknyeon self. That is why he adopted her as his adopted daughter and did not spare any support for Jongnam’s future.

However, the reality before our eyes was completely different from Gwangmunhyup’s expectations.

‘I didn’t even hope to win. However, I thought it would be a hidden move or an injury that would scratch my pride and create an opportunity to break my composure.’

Although his talent for martial arts was a talent, he was basically a child who specialized in confusing opponents in unusual ways. It is not easy to defeat her once she has been defeated, but when dealing with her for the first time, there is no opponent as difficult as her.

Hyeonseong dealt with Gwang Sunyoung completely casually. Not only was there a difference in level, but it basically meant that he had the attitude of a warrior.

And then he goes down the off-stage, and quickly meets Geombong of the Hwasan faction and can be seen laughing with joy.

Crackling… !

“ … Can not be done. Never before I die… , No, you can’t see something like that even after death.”

Gwangmunhyeop, who unconsciously repeats his determination out loud, recalls the memory of trying to join the Hwasan faction when he was young and being rejected.

-The eyes are filled with venom, but the direction is not right. Other executioners would guide you and lead you to the right path, but I cannot find a reason to do so in you. You really backed off.

The man who failed the Hwasan Sect’s entrance exam was later found out to be the teacher of Plum Blossom Sword, who was the same age as him.

Gwangmunhyeop, who could not join the Hwasan faction, took the entrance exam for the Jongnam faction and passed. However, the wounds in his memories were not something that could be resolved by joining the Jongnam faction and walking on a solid path within it.

-Did you hear? This time, the guy who seems to be Mucheon of Hwasan personally captured the elder of the Demonic Cult by himself! At best, he’s barely above the Irip level.

-Is it also a volcanic wave? . At most, a man who was a plum sword swordsman as one of his disciples could already defeat an elder of the Demonic Cult single-handedly. When will our Jongnam faction be able to do that? .

A man named Mucheon, who occupied what he thought was his place, rose to prominence. However, at most he was only occupying a position in the somewhat famous Jongnam faction in Shaanxi.

Jong-nam was rotting away under the name of being an old-timer. At least that’s what Gwangmunhyeop thought. And for him, the cause was volcanic waves.

“This is all because of the volcanoes! Those guys are giving us a sense of defeat. It shouldn’t be like this… !”

When Gwangmunhyeop was young, he thought that if he worked hard and became a master, if he became a master who made not only Jongnam but also the Hwasan faction regret not accepting him in the past, he would be able to surpass Hwasan.

However, the inaction of the Hwasan Sect’s Maehwageomseon was on a different level. In addition, there were many of the Maehwageomseon’s elder brothers who boasted skills that were not far behind those of the Unae Ten Zone, so the Hwasan faction grew bigger and bigger as the days passed. Gwangmunhyup’s efforts were in vain.

-I heard that volcanoes took up all the space in this year’s Yongbong branch? haha… This is it.

-In addition, this is a secret, but there is a rumor that the disciple that Maehwageomseon recently took in is young, but he is not a child. Just like yourself.

-haha… . The majesty of the volcanic waves pierces the sky. Even if Shaolin and Shaman join forces, I wonder if they can deal with the current volcano.

Gwangmunhyeop couldn’t help but get angry every time he heard that story. Was he really hit? Are you wrong?

While he was growing his inferiority complex and anger toward the Hwasan faction, the Great War broke out, and he was suddenly given the important role of elder among the leading men of the Jongnam faction. And he thought the opportunity to close the gap with the volcano was now.

-That, Priest Gwang. No matter how much I hate volcanoes, it’s a bit… .

-Long sentence Leave everything to me. Gwangmunhyup will definitely make this happen.

In the name of protecting Shaanxi’s martial arts world from demonic religions, he eliminated as many warriors from the Jongnam faction as possible. At the meeting, he could not help but endure the cold stares of the warriors of the Hwasan faction, including Maehwageomseon, but he endured it.

And after the end of the Great War, he was convinced that his choice was right.

A volcanic wave that has weakened as it becomes weaker. Numerous goods come into Jongnam. And more than anything, the status has been raised.

Although they worked hard to save the world, there was no one to help them. Although Jongnam may have interfered with this a little, they probably also viewed Hwasan as a thorn in their eyes from the beginning.

As Hwasan collapsed and Jongnam rose, Gwangmunhyeop was confident that his choice was right.

‘As expected, I was right. The Hwasan faction was wrong, and I, Gwangmunhyeop, were right! ‘That old man was wrong then!’

Even though he did not achieve it himself, it was achieved by someone else, or even by a demonic cult, but it did not matter. Because for him, the world was all about results.

The majestic wall of the volcano was torn down by the Demonic Cult instead. A person who could not even reach the level of transcendence, which was his level, became the Jang Mun-in of the Hwasan faction, and all of Shaanxi’s wealth was taken by Jong-nam and the So-ga clan faction under him.

He believed that his constant efforts had brought about the current results. And he thought that this happiness would last, at least for as long as he thought he had suffered.

If it weren’t for the huge man standing next to Geombong in the distance.

‘The author will definitely become a great Hongbok of the Hwasan faction. And for Geombong, there is nothing better… !’

His inferiority complex, which he had forgotten for 10 years, began to flare up again.

Geombong was a disciple of Maehwageomseon, a disciple of a Taoist monk who could not let him join the Hwasan sect.

Wasn’t it he who subtly sabotaged her every time she wanted to revive the Hwasan faction and made it impossible for her to do anything?

Seeing her smile like that for the first time in a long time brought tears to Gwangmunhyeop’s own heart.

To him, the revival of the volcanic faction should no longer exist.

“Never. Until dirt got in my eye… !”

The eyes of the old Taoist monk, who had harbored malice towards the Huashan Sect for a long time, were slowly changing into a light that should never be seen by the Ming Shu of the Righteous Sect as he touched the pockets in his arms.

* * *

After coming down from the cliff, I had no choice but to first display my gimmick in order to have a conversation with the sulking Jinhwa spirit. It is one of the common skills that Kangho learned from her while preparing for the Shaanxi Branch.

“I’m back, Jean Soger. But can you lighten up that expression?”

“ … joy! I guess you had a good time? Well, Jong Nam Jihwa and Gwang Sun Young are pretty and have a good personality. Unlike anyone else.”

“No, I just came here after rubbing.”

“Would it be okay if I mixed it two or three times? I, too, have mixed with you a lot… Heung!”

When I returned to Jinhwaryeong, I was able to see that what my non-musical partner had said at that time was not a complete deception.

I don’t know what it was, but it seems like there was something that Hwaryeong didn’t like while I was interacting with that person.

‘It feels good.’

Since I have feelings, I do things like jealousy. If I had been like other people to her in the first place, I wouldn’t have even seen this attitude.

“Woah, what’s so funny! I was really angry. It looks like you talked a lot with that sister earlier, but I can’t tell you in detail what we talked about… .”

“The next match is Geombong Jinhwaryeong Sojeo of Hwasanpa and Baekdohyeon Confucius of Hwaryongmun. The two contestants, please come up to the off-stage quickly!!”

Unfortunately, her angry protest could not go on any longer.

At the sound of the Jongnam faction’s examiner calling, she sighed and headed toward the off-stage.

“ … It’s not over yet. Since I am with you now, I have an obligation to inform your two lovers in detail about what is happening later. So don’t try to hide anything.”

Here Sarah and Helena… ?

Although Hwaryeong did not know the exact identity of the two people, using them as an excuse was quite effective. I don’t know what it is, but if they hear something I don’t like, they will definitely try to get revenge on me in bed. Even if it is obvious that they will soon be defeated and declare surrender.

While I was slightly embarrassed and stretched out my hand, I could see Jinhwa-ryeong coming up to the stage with a gentle smile on his face. Damn it, I got screwed this time.

The person who called my attention was a person from the same volcano.

“Haha, Ice Flame Divine Dragon, Lord Moon. It’s been a while.”

The same first-generation disciple as Hwaryeong, he was a master named Cheon Gwang, the next in rank after her and the eldest.

“It’s been a while, Master Cheon Gwang. I understand that you have advanced to the finals. Even though it’s late, congratulations.”

“Haha! Well, isn’t that what just happened! Still, this time, as many as two people were able to advance to the Shaanxi branch from Hwasan, so it can be said that the glory of the monk was enhanced in some way. Hahaha.”

It seems that all of the Hwasan faction, except for Jinhwaryeong and Cheongwang, were eliminated from the preliminaries of the Shaanxi Branch. Well, from what I saw, it was safe to say that there were no proper unmanned people except for those two.

‘Anyway, then the guy who is Jang Moon-in’s son or something was eliminated? ‘It looks good.’

Hearing the news that the son of Jang Mun-in, who usually harassed Jinhwaryeong, had passed away, I felt quite sad.

“Anyway, what were you talking about with our great disciple earlier? I was so amazed… .”

“I can’t tell you about that because it’s a personal matter. Sorry.”

“ … okay. I apologize for being rude. Still, our great disciple… I was wondering what was happening to me. Haha.”

His face hardened for a moment, but then he smiled as if nothing had happened.

‘Come to think of it, this person is quite distant from the spirit of evolution.’

I observed that he was someone I had been talking to and saying hello to during morning training for about two weeks, but when I met Hwaryeong, it felt like we were both quite face-to-face. Maybe I see it that way because I am a bit further away from the volcanic wave.

And I think there was only one reason.

‘I thought he would become a great disciple because he was the oldest and strongest among the Jinsan disciples, but maybe it was because Hwaryeong was a great disciple.’

Although he was Helchang and seemed to treat people around him well, he seemed to be trying to keep his distance from Jinhwaryeong. Although he maintains the bare minimum of courtesy, it seems difficult to see that as a favor to her. When I first saw him, I thought he might just be shy, but now that I think about it, I think he might be quite different.

For a moment, in an awkward atmosphere, I decided to just watch Hwaryeong’s game, and then someone called me again.

“Hey, Master Moon of Sashinmun?”

And that voice was the suspicious, narrow-eyed voice I heard earlier.

Gwang Sun-young, who had been interacting with me just a moment ago, was smiling brightly while looking at me.

“Ah, Gwang Sojeo. It was a good dance.”

“Me too. Oh, there was a member of the Hwasan faction next to you. Is it possible that Doho… .”

“Che, it’s called Cheon Gwang! It’s an honor to meet Jongnam Jihwa!”

Cheon-gwang smiles brightly when he sees Gwang-gyeon-yeong, probably thinking that he is also a man, and grabs his gun. Gwang Sun-young also smiled and greeted appropriately.

“Nice to meet you, Cheon Gwang Sohyeop. Oh, the next order is Hwaryeong? It seemed like you were having a friendly conversation earlier, but as expected, the relationship between you two… .”

“I think there is something I want to say, what is it? I hope you tell me quickly.”

Her face stiffened a little at my sudden and blunt words.

“Uh, what? I’m not really like that… .”

“If you wanted to socialize, you would have come a little later. Not when there is someone next to you, especially the volcano people.”

“Look, Ice Flame Divine Dragon! Talking to a woman so carelessly… .”

“As expected, the Ice Flame Divine Dragon. You are not only quick with your sword, but also with your wits.”

Cheon Gwang tried to stop me because he didn’t like what I said, but Gwang Sun-Young actually smiled even brighter than before.

“Hmm… . You mean that it’s not just about being strong in martial arts, right? You have a quick eye. As expected, the opening of a new sect in Hwaeumhyeon itself… .”

“So, what is the answer?”

“You also have an impatient personality. Still, I don’t think that kind of personality is bad, do you? Hehehe.”

After laughing for a moment, what came out of her mouth was more unexpected than I expected.

“My father, Cheonjunggeom, wants to meet Lord Moon. If it’s okay, would you like to have dinner with us in the evening? Oh, Hwaryeong said it was okay for me to come too.”
