Chapter 66: Dispatch to the Ascension Pavilion
“Didn’t you hear? I said go on a dispatch.”
“Um, how exactly is a dispatch related to martial arts training…?”
Hearing the question, Baekgoong Baek shot him a look that screamed, ‘What kind of idiot are you?’
“……At this point, I’m actually curious how you reached your current level.”
“That comes from bloody training…”
“If everyone could reach that realm through training alone, the world would already be in the hands of the Mu Huang Sect.”
“…Well, that’s true.”
Bukgung Baek continued his explanation.
“They say ten people, ten colors. Martial arts are no different.”
It meant that since everyone’s path is different, one must find their own way.
“I crossed the threshold by facing life and death on the battlefield. Since your martial arts began at the Ascension Pavilion, returning to that starting point and reexamining it will help you find your path. And.”
“……?”
“The Immortal of Annihilation promised seventy taels as the condition for dispatching you and I. Your share should be at least thirty taels, wouldn’t you say?”
“Should we depart immediately?”
The answer of agreement slipped out before I knew it.
I couldn’t resist the bonus.

As any martial arts novel reader knows, most major sects had forbidden zones.
Typically, these were places like the library storing martial arts manuals or the secret vault housing divine weapons and elixirs.
But Nine Dragons Fortress had its own supreme forbidden zone.
