Chapter 458: Amdiel and the Geniuses of the Elf Kingdom

Amdiel raised his head in confusion. He was a peak stage Void God Realm expert, but he was actually rejected by Jiu Shen? "This...Sect Master Jiu Shen..."

"You're wondering why I rejected you?" Jiu Shen took out a chair from his space earring and sat down before looking at the Elf King with a smile.

Amdiel nodded his head.

"Very simple. Your talent is mediocre..." Jiu Shen's words almost choke the Elf King. Him? Mediocre talent? However, when he thought about the diagram drawn on the parchment, he felt that Jiu Shen might not be exaggerating. He could casually write a technique that could enhance one's bloodline! That means he could freely create a bunch of geniuses if he wanted to!

Ganda almost couldn't hold back her laughter when she saw this scene. The Elf King Amdiel, who was known for his stubbornness begged Jiu Shen to accept him as his disciple, but he was still rejected...

"However, how about becoming my gardener first? As you can see, my garden has expanded and three people are not enough to take care of it. If you do good, I might even promote you as an Elder of the Heavenly Sword Tower." Jiu Shen said as he took out a bottle of wine. He then took a small sip and waited for the Elf King's answer.

Amdiel didn't even hesitate as he nodded his head. "Yes, I will, but that parchment..."

"I'll give it to you if you promise to let the most outstanding young geniuses of your kingdom join the Heavenly Sword Tower. You know that this will help them, so I don't think I'm being unreasonable here." Jiu Shen stated calmly.

Amdiel knew that Jiu Shen was telling the truth. Just that parchment alone could change the fate of his kingdom! What would happen if they follow the man who made it? Just thinking about it made his eyes shine with excitement.

"No problem! I'll bring them with me to the Heavenly Sword Tower!" Amdiel said decisively. Heck! He would be foolish if he rejected this offer.

Jiu Shen smiled and stood up from his seat. "In that case, I'll wait for you in the sword tower. Once you get there, I'll give you the parchment."

Amdiel nodded his head eagerly. "Yes, no problem! How about you guys stay here first. I'll tour you around the kingdom."

Jiu Shen shook his head and declined tactfully. "Unfortunately, I still have some matters to deal with. Maybe another time, Amdiel."

The Elf King felt regretful, but he didn't force Jiu Shen. "Too bad. Then at least let me send you guys outside."

"Sure." Jiu Shen agreed with a smile.

The Elf King led the two out of the Elf Kingdom. He also tried to converse with Jiu Shen along the way, but the man only replied halfheartedly.

After seeing them leave, the Elf King immediately went back to his kingdom to select the most talented youths and bring them to the Heavenly Sword Tower!

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jiu Shen moved a bit further away when he noticed the strange gaze of Ganda.

Ganda chuckled when she saw his reaction. "You were able to make Amdiel bow with just a piece of parchment. I'm in awe of your greatness, Sect Master." She muttered with stars in her eyes.

"Just a piece of parchment? Maybe..." Jiu Shen chuckled mysteriously.

Three days later.

Hestia was having a lecture in the sword tower's huge lecture hall. All the disciples were listening earnestly as she discussed. They were excited to learn new things from her. At the same time, they were also eager to explore this new wide world! However, they knew that it was still too early for them to do that.

"Now, can someone tell me what are the cultivation levels after the 9th-rank Saint?" Hestia smiled as she glanced at the disciples. She then saw a young demon girl raising her hand, so Hestia immediately called her. "Alright. Stand up and tell everyone your answer."

The young demon stood up confidently and said. "The cultivation levels after the 9th-rank Saint are Nascent God Realm, Origin God Realm, and Void God Realm." After saying that, she sat down with a smug look.

Hestia smiled when she saw this. "You're right. However, there are still realms after the Void God Realm..."

Except for a few individuals, most of the disciples were surprised.

Seeing their looks of anticipation, Hestia continued. "After the Void God Realm is the Mystic God Realm, True God Realm, Supreme God Realm, Heavenly God Realm, and the Celestial God Realm!"

Amdiel who just arrived in the sword tower also listened to the lecture. He was stunned by all these revelations. He even felt as if he had been living like an ant trapped in a sandbox.

"Good thing I accepted Sect Master Jiu Shen's offer or I would have missed this opportunity..." He heaved a sigh of relief. He then turned towards the young geniuses he brought with him. "You guys listen carefully, okay?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" They answered.

"Just call me Elder starting now." Amdiel said calmly.

"Yes, Elder!"

After the lecture, Amdiel immediately went to greet Hestia. "Elder Hestia, I've brought the young disciples of the Elf Kingdom as per Sect Master Jiu Shen's order."

Hestia smiled at Amdiel and nodded her head. "Master is waiting for you upstairs. You can go with me. They can wait here."

Amdiel nodded his head and followed Hestia towards Jiu Shen's office.

When they stepped inside the office, Amdiel saw Jiu Shen sitting calmly on his chair.

"Greetings, Sect Master Jiu Shen!" He greeted Jiu Shen with a light bow of his head.

Jiu Shen stared at the Elf King and handed a piece of parchment to him. "You can start with your gardening duties. You can ask Yue Bo what to do since he knows everything related to gardening. If he's not there, just ask Balmond."

Amdiel took the parchment with care and immediately kept it inside his space ring. "Yes, Sect Master!"
