Chapter 67 The Strange Man (1)
‘So he escaped after all.’
After all, someone of Ma Yi’s caliber wouldn’t move without backup.
Knowing that, he hadn’t pursued directly, intending to rely on the Sect’s assistance instead.

Gu Yangjeok tapped the bird’s beak twice, expressing his regret.
The bird chirped and flew back toward where it had come from. The Sect’s distinctive binding on its leg looked oddly cute.
He turned his head and looked at Jo Hoon.

Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, but he steadily corrected his posture whenever it faltered, then swung again.
Whoosh, swish, thud!
A hundred times in total. Only after perfecting that did he move on to the next movement.
It was an excessively harsh training regimen for a boy around ten years old. Countless children would start off full of vigor only to collapse almost immediately.
