At this time, Spirit Elder Jiang suddenly shed upon the tform. He stood near Joel, but his gaze calmly peered into Cain''s face.


    Their eyes met, and time halted for a moment.


    Curling his brows, Cain didn''t know what to think about this high Spirit Elder. What he sensed from him was a strange sensation.


    But Cain couldn''t further his thoughts as Spirit Elder Jiang suddenly reached down towards Joel.


    As he took hold of Joel''s shoulder, Spirit Elder Jiang said, "This was a well-fought match."


    These seemingly respectful words only caused Joel to fiercely clench his teeth, his expression darkening to the depths of hell.


    But before anything could erupt, Spirit Elder Jiang shed away with Joel, vanishing in a faint blue light.


    Cain merely shook his head, shuffling that short moment to the back of his mind.


    With everything done, he then turned towards Kali and Amber, ready to quietly enjoy the rest of the Spirit Annual Exchange event.


    Their mark has already been made, no need to show off any further.


    ....


    After Cain''s group''s awe-stunning performances, the Spirit Annual Exchange event was able to continue normally.


    For thest round, there were other shining Spirit Talents that showed up.


    Truthfully, under ordinary situations, these Spirit Talents would be able to utterly stun the City in their own way.


    One of the Spirit Talents performed marginally better than all others, effectively scoring the third spot in the event.


    This Spirit Talent was able to breach Grand Spirit Master Yao''s test within just 20 minutes, showcasing Spirit Perception decently beyond his ss level. And for thest test, he managed to summon forth a 2nd Grade Earthen Spirit Art.


    Two excellent results that could most likely make someone on the likes of Bex''s level pay extra attention to.


    But of course, the City wasn''t under regr times.


    No matter how shiny the other Spirit Talents performance was, they all massivelycked behind Cain''s group.


    This truly couldn''t be med on them. As it''s not the fact that the Spirit Talent is too weak, but Cain''s group is simply far too advanced.


    Whenparing the advantages, all citizens knew who they wanted to mingle with when the event was done.


    Unfortunately, no matter thousands of citizens'' thoughts, they all were destined to fail on meeting with anyone in Cain''s group.


    Nobody was able to spot the faintest trace of them. It was like when they had finished performing, theypletely disappeared from the public eye.


    Such results left the citizens greatly disappointed, and they were forced to settle with the other Spirit Talents.


    But even so, many didn''t give hope. One way or another, hundreds of citizens were determined to create just the faintest of connection with Cain''s group. Losing this kind of opportunity is far too costly.


    …


    As the outside world was puzzled about Cain''s group''s whereabouts, Cain, Kali and Amber were actually not far away from the Spirit za.


    The trio was actually in the World Spirit Master Branch. They had gathered in Spirit Master Bex''s chamber for a very important meeting.


    After Cain''s duel, he had received a ping from Bex, informing him that they must attend to meet one of the highest figures in the entire City.


    Naturally, neither Cain, Kali, nor Amber disobeys. And with Cain''s Chaotic concealment, they were able to easily shift through the massive crowd and walked right into Bex''s chambers without interruptions.


    Now, the trio stood calm with curiosity filling their eyes as they stood within Bex''s chambers.


    The reason for their curiosity was a woman none of them had ever seen before.


    This woman had a tantalizing, bombastic figure that could easily tempt the soul of men and bring down kingdoms with absolute ease. Her figure was borderline perfect, with absolutely no imperfection.


    But despite her seductive body, she wore a shiny golden mask that admittedly added a fetching sense of mystery to her. Additionally, this golden mask woman''s Natural Aura was unfathomably profound, radiating power that seemed to control the very airflow around her.


    Facing this kind of woman, even Sage Cores would have a bit of trouble trying to keep their calm. Their Martial Hearts wouldn''t be able to suppress confusing waves of various sensations ripple across.


    Even Amber had a little troubling time keeping calm. She was struggling to not narrow her eyes from an ufortable feeling rippling in her chest.


    While Cain and Kali were genuinely impressed. For a small moment, they both had the faintest of respect swirling in their eyes.


    This was respect that stemmed from her absolute strength!


    The sibling duo honestly couldn''t care less about the charms or attractiveness of any person. What really matters at the end of the day is one''s Martial or Spiritual Road.


    And obviously, this golden mask woman isn''t anyone average.


    Moments after Cain''s group entered Bex''s chambers, Bex was the first to speak up.


    Her smile was warm and weing as she gestured to the mysterious, golden masked woman, saying, "Cain, Kali, Amber. I would like you to meet the highest person in our Branch. This is our Leader, Spirit Leader Fanny, the strongest World Spirit Master in our Branch."


    Slowly taking this information in, Cain, Kali, and Amber''s eyes jumped in slight surprise. They all were quite aware that the honor of meeting the Spirit Leader isn''t small at all.


    In fact, it can be said meeting the Spirit Leaderes at a far higher value than the Sage Core Masters across all Martial Sects.


    After all, those Sage Core Masters have to bow down to Spirit Leader Fanny!


    In terms of prowess, it is publicly known that Spirit Leader Fanny is the undisputed strongest. No Sage Core Masters, not even the most powerful Martial cultivator from the Azure Lightning Sect, can hold a candle to her.


    When discussing the strongest, various factors typically get put into y for Martial cultivators.


    A Martial cultivator can''t only have the raw power to determine their absolute strength. One must also consider the power of their Laws, Martial Perception properties, the density of energy, degree of Martial Heart, and the attainment they achieved with their person Spirit Weapons.


    Furthermore, there is also battle experience, battle instinctive, and other innate factors that Martial cultivators have to consider.


    For the Azure Lightning Sect Master to gain the title as the strongest Martial cultivator truly means all of his abilities are cultivated to the absolute peak!


    One can say that ancient powerhouse has very little weakness on all fronts.


    And yet, despite the seemingly overwhelming advantages, it is Spirit Leader Fanny that is considered far above the Azure Lightning Sect Master.


    But it is entirely understandable.


    The pure power and mystical Spirit Laws governing Spirit Energy are able to fully contend with abilities Martial cultivators hold.


    Martial cultivators derive their cultivation from the Heaven and Earth and the ever-elusive Heavenly Dao.


    While World Spirit Masters have a connection to the all-powerful Spiritual Dimension.


    The origins of the Spiritual Dimension and how far it can extend to neither Cain, Kali, Amber, or really anyone in the entirety of Azure Lightning City knows. And even in the highest rank Provinces, not much is known as well.


    But what most fathoms is that the Spiritual Dimension must be an entirely separate great Universe that is continually filled with and only Spiritual Energy. And in some mystical means, the Spiritual Dimension has a weak connection to their world, allowing inborn World Spirit Masters to refine Spirit Energy.


    This theory could partially exin why World Spirit Master must arduously refine Spirit Energy at a snail-like cepared to Martial Cultivators.


    Martial Cultivators simply have a far better connection with the Heaven and Earth, allowing them to effectively cultivate.


    But at the same time, the power World Spirit Masters gain from the Spiritual Dimension is perfectly pure, without any hint of hidden impurities.


    And because the Spiritual Dimension most likely existed for countless eons, the umtion of power within it is iparably terrifying.


    All of this is why 2nd ss Spirit Masters can crush any Sky Rulers with absolute ease. Or why Spirit Leader Fanny is the fearsome expert in the entier Azure Lightning City.


    If one can determinedly refine Spirit energy, pouring all of their lives into this one aspect, practically ignoring everything from the outside world, the disparity would be tremendouspared to Martial cultivators.


    But even barring Spirit energy massive potential, the abilities Spirit Leader Fanny can perform will also have Sage Core masters bowing their heads.


    Her crafting of Spirit Weapons, her creation of various exotic medicines, and her powerful Spirit Formations or enhancements are just some of her powerful means.


    To meet with the Spirit Leader is a chance only a minuscule few can gain.


    And this kind of honor was being granted to Cain, Kali, and Amber. Even if the trio could ignore the likes of Crimson Sea Academy''s Vice Principal, they would need to treat Spirit Leader Fanny a bit more seriously.


    When considering all of this, Cain took the helm of introductions, saying while also slightly bowing his head, "Greeting Senior Fanny. It is an honor to make your acquaintance."


    "Ah…to think I would meet the top so quickly…" Amber quietly muttered to herself, still feeling a bit of disbelief.


    She quickly shook her head a momentter and gave a more respectful bow while saying, "This really is a meeting of a lifetime Senior Fanny."


    For the first time since meeting a high-level figure, Amber erased all trace of her casualness andziness. Naturally, with her passion for Spirit energy, she couldn''t dare to disrespect the practical founders of Spirit energy.


    And while Cain and Amber paid their respects, Kali didn''t really change her posture that much, if at all. In her eyes, this a slightly worthy enough World Spirit Master to enter her sights but just this much.


    She didn''t care about Amber''s actions and only thought her brother was being cordial for their own benefit. Thus Kali only gave a curt nod, saying, "Greeting Senior Fanny."


    If any outsiders were to witness just how calmly Cain''s group was taking in the situation, outcries would surely ur.


    Many would think that for juniors, not kneeling in front of the greatest powerhouse in the City is the ultimate sign of disrespect. It was only natural, seeing as talent couldn''t evere close toparing with higher age, experience, and prowess.


    However, in this private meeting, the focus on formalities wasn''t important at all.


    Spirit Leader Fanny only gave a slight curt nod at Cain''s group greetings.


    With how dignified they looked while doing so, Spirit Leader Fanny felt her impressions of them go even a few notches up. They were neither overly servile nor warped with arrogance, a proper showing of a genius bearing.


    As Spirit Leader Fanny thought of this, she said, "I will not take up too much of your time and get straight to the point. Your performance today was truly outstanding. Perhaps even the very best out of thest thousands of years we held this event. Because of this, you all caught the attention of a ce very far away and monstrously powerful. Perhaps you all know of it already. As this attentiones from the Central Divine Region. Have you all heard of it?"


    As the term Central Divine Region swirled in their minds, Cain and Amber instantly became more engaged in this meeting. Even Kali felt her entire being perk up.


    Attention from the Central Divine Region?


    Potentially worrying stress for others, but for Cain''s group, it was only potential opportunities.
