Chapter 512 - Hidden Experts (1/2)

”Senior Wang, was that masked person really a Spirit Master?” One of the youngsters with Senior Wang asked her as they made their way back home on a private plane.

”Yes, that person was, without a doubt, a Spirit Master— the same level as me and the other elders,” she confirmed.

”That young man also sounded like he was around your age. I cannot imagine how terrifying his talents must be to reach Spirit Master at such a young age, and it would be even more terrifying if he only started cultivating after Cultivation Online became a thing.”

”That can't be possible, right?” Someone else there asked.

”The question is no longer whether it's possible or not, but how he achieved it…” Senior Wang said in a low voice.

”And whether he started cultivating before or after Cultivation Online doesn't really matter, as it won't change the fact that he's a Spirit Master at such a young age.”

”Anyways, although our visit to the Cultivators' Association turned out to be a huge waste of time, I am actually glad that we went there, as I got to learn the existence of such a cultivation monster. The others in the family will go crazy once they learn about this young man.”

”As for the other families… We'll definitely be fighting for him.”

”If he's that famous Player Yuan, there's a good chance that he won't join any families, right?” Someone there asked.

”Yes, but it won't hurt to try.” Senior Wang nodded.

”Who's this Player Yuan? I have never heard of him before.” Another person said.

”You don't know Player Yuan? Don't you play Cultivation Online?”

”Why would I play a game about cultivation when I am already doing it in real life?”

”No wonder why you don't know him… Well, let me tell you about Player Yuan and his achievements…”

And for the rest of their flight, the young cultivators shared information about Player Yuan and his achievements with those that didn't know of his fame.

Meanwhile, after returning home, Yuan removed his mask and sat in the living room in an exhausted manner with sweat dripping down his face.

”Are you okay?” Meixiu asked him as she gently wiped the sweat off his face with a dry towel.

”Yes… I am fine… But that was more exhausting than I'd expected...”

”Since the Young Master cannot talk right now, I will explain everything for him,” Meifeng said, and he proceeded to recall everything that had happened at the Cultivators' Association.

Meixiu expressed disbelief after hearing the situation.

”Y-You went there as Player Yuan, even threatening the Chairman? Heavens… Are you sure everything will be fine?” Meixiu spoke in a worried voice.

”We can't really say for now. Give it a few days and we'll see if anything will happen. However, they don't know the Young Master's identity, so they won't be able to do anything to him now even if they want to.”

”But Young Master, you really surprised me today, and I am not talking about your identity as Player Yuan. I didn't even know you can act so domineering. You felt like an entirely different person today! I still have chills just thinking about it!” Meifeng said to him in a somewhat admiring voice.

”Well… Most of that was just an act since if I didn't act like that, they wouldn't have taken me seriously.” Yuan smiled.

'Was it really just an act? It felt too realistic…' Meifeng thought to herself.
