Legend of the Rage God

Jaden, Don't.

Suddenly, beneath the gaze of the present people, Jaden suddenly took a large stride. From his body, an unrestricted aura of a fifth-layer Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator erupted, its immense force tenaciously pressured Marcus.

Marcus’s complexion greatly changed in an instant; his body turned incomparably stiff. His throat felt as though it was being clutched by an incorporeal strength. He was unable to utter the final word of his sentence.

As he revealed his own cultivation, Jaden’s aura also abruptly changed. His aura pressured Marcus as if it was a sharp and lofty sword.

After he had finished talking, Jaden immediately turned around and faced the crowd. His aura was like a rainbow surging through the heavens, and pressuring the ground.

“Now, tell me, is Marcus a waste?”

At this moment, the Shiba Clan’s Hall of Conference sunk into complete silence; these words incessantly resounded in the ears of the crowd.

*********

The present attendees, Elders, even William, Victor, and Marcus all had their eyes wide open, with their astonished faces looking at Jaden. This was because they never expected the aura Jaden released to have achieved the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm stage! The fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm couldn’t compare at all to some of the greater attendees and Elders.

However, in the Blazing Star Continent one would have to go through the Bloodline Awakening to initiate cultivation. It had only been about two months since Jaden returned, and Jaden had actually broken through the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm?

In that instant, the attendees and Elders subconsciously thought back to when they were ridiculing Jaden just now. They felt as though a palm had repeatedly slapped their faces, causing a painful ache. They were just ridiculing him and calling him a waste? Jaden at the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm stage was a waste? This caused them to think once more about what Jaden had said before. It was as if at this moment Marcus, who was in front of Jaden, was actually the true waste.

“Son….When did your cultivation break through the fifth-layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm?” William asked with a slight tremble in his voice.

“Impossible! A sharp voice suddenly resounded. Victor’s eyes were bloodshot as he fixated on Jaden. He was like a hungry wolf, “How did you break through the fifth-layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm?"

Everyone came to their senses from the shock, and each of them looked at Jaden with overwhelming surprise. This matter was simply too shocking. As everyone knew, the lower one’s Bloodline Limit was, the worse the cultivation speed, capability, and future potential. This was something that had been established since ancient times. How did Jaden break through the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm with a Yellow-grade Bloodline Limit?

Jaden completely disregarded Victor’s gaze, as well as everyone else’s.. Instead, he looked toward William and cupped his hands, “Father, I was at the Cloud Moon Forest a few days ago and had a fortuitous encounter that allowed me to break through the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm stage. I was planning on reporting to you in the future.”

“A fortuitous encounter?” William was shocked as he did not expect this. He immediately followed up with a hearty laugh as he clapped his hands, “Good, good. That’s really good.”

At this time, the people present all came to a realisation at the same time. They looked at Jaden, eyes brimming with great jealousy. One had to understand that although the grade of Bloodline Limit is indeed important, luck was also extremely important. As long as you can find a treasure that is antiquity, then even if you were a waste, you could still increase your cultivation.

Those present had no doubt about this. If it wasn’t for a fortuitous encounter, then how could a waste like Jaden possibly break through the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm? A short moment later, those staring at Jaden finally came back to their senses, and their hearts were full of disdain.

So what if he had a fortuitous encounter? You, Jaden, are only a Yellow-grade Bloodline Limit user. As Jaden didn’t understand the reason behind the people’s gazes, his own eyes fell upon Marcus as he said calmly, “Marcus, I remember you said that as long as I proved I’m better than you, then you would no longer Challenge the Patriarch. Although I may have relied on the fortuitous encounter to reach this point, my cultivation is still better than yours. Furthermore, in regard to cultivation, you are a waste in my eyes. How about that?”

Victor’s face changed. Marcus turned increasingly more angry. Being ridiculed by Jaden caused the rage in his heart to almost explode. However, he couldn’t retort because he himself did say that as long as Jaden’s cultivation was higher than his own, he would no longer be a waste. Additionally, receiving the five hundred Qi Nurturing Pills at that point would be more acceptable. Furthermore, even though Jaden was deliberately ridiculing Marcus, in terms of cultivation, Marcus definitely was not on par with Jaden.

“Jaden, you….” Marcus gnashed his teeth. His face was gloomy; it was as though his expression was reflecting the weather, dripping rain and gloomy as he said, “I did indeed say that before. As long as you can prove you are not a waste, then that is enough. However, I have had a change of mind. I challenge you to a battle! As long as you can win against me, then today we will not challenge and remove William from the Patriarch position!”

“Jaden, don’t!” William took the initiative to say before Jaden had opened his mouth. “Marcus harbors a sky-grade Bloodline Limit. Even if you are at the fifth-layer of Foundation Establishment Realm level, you are still not equal with him. You have already done great today, and as a father, I’m also satisfied. Not having the position as Patriarch is fine.”

As William said this, his face was calm. It was clear that after being through Jaden’s commotion just now, William’s originally discouraged heart had returned.

“Hahaha!’ Marcus’s loud laugh resounded. His eyes turned red as he fixated on Jaden, “Did you hear that? Even your father doesn’t want you to battle me. So what if you had a fortuitous encounter? So what if your cultivation is higher? You need to understand that you are a waste, and so is your entire family!”
