Chapter: 25

‘This one is crazy. How can one withstand such an attack without any internal energy?’

He was astonished. Yeowun really passed the test without a single hint of internal energy inside him. Hameng had heard bad rumors about the Seventh Prince. But who would have thought such a kid from a slave girl would have such a strong mind?

Hameng called out to staff standing outside the training ground.

“Send him to a hospital room.”

As Yeowun was being carried out by the staff, he gave an order to Nano.

‘...Heal me, now.’

The fifth elder, Hang Soyou, didn’t look all that excited as she watched Chun Yeowun being carried away. The amount of blood he threw out was proof that he had taken heavy damage. Lee Hameng soon walked up to her.

“You went too far.”

“W-what are you talking about?”

“You almost killed him.”

After she acquired the musical wave skill, she had never seen a person take that much damage. It almost made her think that her attack skill had increased in damage. She became embarrassed at Hameng’s words and asked, “He... did he really not have any internal energy?”

She felt much better as she knew that her attack worked, but it was impossible to withstand her attack for so long without internal energy, which she couldn’t believe. Hameng shook his head.

“No. None.”

“What?”

“He has no internal energy. He kept his oath.”

“That can’t be... how can one withstand my attack without any internal energy?”

Only about thirty students withstood her attack, and even some of those were down on their knees or vomiting from enduring so much. Moreover, those students had internal energy.

“He should’ve passed out a long time ago.”

“He already had taken internal damage for quite some time. It was his will that kept him standing.”

“His will? You think that makes sense?”

“...It is beyond our imagination.”

It almost made Hameng want to take him in as his apprentice if he wasn’t a bastard son of the Lord. However, Hameng was a realist. He had no intention of taking on such a controversial individual as his own apprentice.

“HAHA! That’s interesting. He just endured it, huh?”

Right Guardian Submeng spoke amicably although he usually paid no interest in other matters. Hameng answered annoyingly, “It’s none of your business. Go away and drink all you want.”

“Bah, I was going anyway without you speaking to me, redhead.”

“Drunkard.”

“Puny girl.”

Submeng spat and walked away from the stage. They were both guardians, but they didn’t get along very well.

“Well, either way, he did not have any internal energy and there is no problem. And for what you did... it will be reported to the Lord.”

“...Understood.”
