Chapter 163
Looking at Leonardo’s expectant gaze, Fiona took a deep breath.
“Leonardo, thank you!” Fiona said, “But, I still haven’t avenged myself.
Hence, before that, I won’t consider spending too much time on the inscription techniques, and I want to participate in the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony.”
Leonardo‘s eyes lit up for a moment, but they soon dimmed.
Nonetheless, Leonardo quickly raised her head and looked at Leonardo, showing a faint smile.
“Since you’ve decided, then I’ll fully support you.
The Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony will be held on the twentieth of next month, and that’s about twenty- five more days from now.
Are you confident?”
Fiona laughed bitterly.
“If it’s a competition to compare the True Martial Realm’s strength, I’m very confident with that as my injuries will be almost healed by then, but…”
“You’re worried that the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony is more than just the True Martial Realm’s strength, right?” Leonardo asked.
“Mhm.” Fiona nodded.
“That’s indeed the truth,” Leonardo appeared serious, “Compared to the sects recruiting disciples in advance, the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony will have more stringent requirements for their participants.
After all, most sects regarded the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony’s contestants to be insignificant.
At the very least, a sect will have about tens of thousands of people, and if it’s bigger, it’ll have hundreds of thousands.
Some even have millions of talents.
Hence, that one extra person won’t bring much of a difference.
However, if they can select an outstanding talent from the ceremony, it’ll naturally be a pleasant surprise.
Therefore, only by letting those sects think you’re a hidden gem will you be valued by them and gain their favor.
Nonetheless, it won’t be as easy as just showing your special characteristics.
Casper, you must be mentally prepared.”
“Mhm.
Thank you for letting me know.” Fiona took a deep breath and nodded.
Since Fiona was mentally-prepared for the Sects‘ Recruitment Ceremony’s strict requirements, Fiona would be calmer on that day of the event.
Looking at Leonardo, Fiona suddenly laughed.
“Leonardo, do you feel disappointed and sad that I didn‘t choose the Heavenly Stars Sect but.
decided to join the Sects’ Recruitment Ceremony?”
“A little,” Leonardo chuckled as she nodded, “But, I respect your decision, and as long as you aren’t a Dark Moon Sect’s disciple, I won’t give up on recruiting you.
After all, I had a feeling from the start that you belong to our Heavenly Stars Sect, Casper.”
When she said that, Leonardo’s eyes glimmered with bright lights.
“Leonardo, I’ll surely try my best, ” Fiona replied.
“You should recuperate yourself first.
I’ll come over and visit you again in a few more days.
If you need anything, let me know and I’ll get it done,” Leonardo reminded, then she stood.
“Leonardo, you treat me so well.
If I don’t enter the Heavenly Stars Sect, I‘ll be burdened with extreme guilt.” Fiona laughed.
Leonardo stopped in her tracks, and the next second, she lowered her gaze.
Then, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she gently answered, “Well, that’s all I can do as your senior.”
After saying that, Leonardo did not stay any longer, and she directly walked out of the room.
Fiona tilted his head, and he felt there was a hidden meaning behind her words.
Nonetheless, Fiona was unable to figure it out for the moment.
Not long after Leonardo left, another person came and visited Alder.
But this time Fiona was surprised by this person’s visit…
It was Bowen.
“Casper, how do you feel?” As soon as he got in, Bowen directly approached Fiona and grabbed Fiona’s hands.
“I was worried about your injuries, so I brought some medicine and ointment with me.
I hope it’ll help you a little.”
After he said that, he took out more than a dozen bottles from the ordinary-looking pouch on his waist.
Judging from the size of the bag, it would definitely not be able to fit those things.
“It’s a storage sack,” Fiona mumbled as he stared at the pouch.
“Casper, you have this small thing too.
If you think that it’ll benefit you more, then I’ll give it to you.” As he said that, Bowen really removed the storage sack from his waist and placed it in front of Alder.
Then, looking at his expression, Bowen certainly did not appear to be reluctant at all.
“Are you being so friendly to me because you’re worried that I’ll look into the matter of you becoming the Dark Moon Sect’s disciple?” Fiona looked at Bowen with a faint smile.
“Casper, I won’t be happy if you think of me that way,” the frivolous smile on Bowen‘s face that he had since the beginning turned serious, ” I sincerely want to be your friend, but if you insult me with such words, I much rather not befriend you.”
Fiona replied, “The spot is Dark Moon Sect’s to give, and they can offer it to anyone they want.
I was just one of their choices, and now they picked you instead of me.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
This is a justified decision, so I naturally won’t have any opinion of you.
”
Bowen’s face immediately showed relief, and he glanced at Fiona angrily, “Casper, you scared me.
You’re not allowed to make such jokes in the future!”
Fiona had goosebumps all over when he saw Bowen‘s gaze, and he hurriedly waved his hands.
“Anyway, let’s not talk about this anymore.
I haven’t even congratulated you for being the Dark Moon Sect’s disciple! Moreover, you don‘t have to act so formally around me.
Just be who you are.”
laughed and cupped his hands, “There are two purposes to my visit today, and the first thing is done.”
“You’re just here to see if I‘m a petty person, right?” Fiona pointed at him, “What’s the second matter?”
“I’m here to bid farewell,” the smile on Bowen’s face gradually dimmed, “Since I’ in chosen to enter the Dark Moon Sect, I’m now their disciple.
I’ll follow them back to their territory the morning after.”
When Fiona heard that he was slightly triggered, and he thought, ‘Is Rowan going to leave for the Dark Moon Sect with him the morning after too?’
After waking up, Fiona was yet to meet any of the Lawrence family members, let alone Rowan.
Bowen was unaware of Fiona’s inner thoughts, so he continued, “I’m only able to enter the Dark Moon Sect as my luck was better.
However, I believe that you’re not someone that’ll easily give up, Casper.
These medicines were
prepared using our Pullman family’s secret method, and they’re extremely beneficial to heal external injuries and meridian damage.
I think you’ve known about the Sects‘ Recruitment Ceremony.
Although I think they have a stringent requirement, I still feel that you have a chance.
I hope that these medicines can help you in your process of recovery, and we‘ll meet again soon in the Dark Moon Sect.”
“Thank you so much, Bowen,” Casper nodded, and he quickly added, “But, there’s one thing that I’ve been wanting to ask.”
“Hmm? What is it?” Bowen asked, puzzled.
Fiona laughed, saying, “When Ashton, Ralph, and Jack saw me, they wanted to kill me, but why do you want to get to know me?”
