If Heaven hadn't given birth to me, I would be arrogant.

“Me?” Zong Ze lowered his head and murmured to himself in a very low voice, “With a mission? That makes sense. My teacher said that apart from him and a very few others, it is impossible for people from the outer continent of the Holy Word to return to the mainland unless there are special circumstances. It seems that maybe this guy wasn’t lying, maybe he really does have a mission! But he asked me about my teacher’s situation. My teacher said that his affairs must never be told to anyone, otherwise I will be punished by the gods. What should I do?”

Zong Ze knew, of course, that Karu, being a Nascent Soul cultivator, could definitely hear his self-talk. In fact, he deliberately wanted Karu to hear it! Judging from Karu's behavior just now, he could tell that Karu had a wonderful misunderstanding about his identity, so he didn't mind letting Karu's misunderstanding deepen!

Karu was indeed fooled. In his view, it was perfectly normal for a boy to mutter to himself in this situation; he had no idea that he could hear his own mutterings! Listen to what he's saying! A teacher—one of the very few beings who can freely travel between the Holy Word Continent and the Holy Word Outer Continent. Without a doubt, this Zongze's teacher is definitely one of the gods of the divine realm. It's just that, perhaps for the sake of secrecy, even this child doesn't know that his teacher is a god!

Thinking of this, Karu recalled how Zongze had only prayed a few times and the level eight magical beast had collapsed. He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for his recklessness. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and saved the situation in time. Otherwise, offending a disciple of a god in the Holy Word Continent would be a sin that neither he nor his own power could bear!

"Haha, darling! Don't worry, I really mean no harm!" Karu's fawning expression intensified: "Your tactics must have been... well, someone taught you them, and this person even told you about the Holy Word Outer Continent and told you to keep it a secret, right?"

"I didn't say that! You guessed it yourself!" Zong Ze thought to himself, but his face showed a look of shock: "You... how did you know? Do you know my teacher? Can you tell me where he is? Ever since he turned me from an idiot into a normal person and taught me so many things, my teacher has disappeared. Can you tell my teacher that I miss him very much?"

"Me?" Karu smiled wryly. "I don't know your teacher, but I do know of his existence. Your teacher is a very, very great being. Even I have to bow down in fear before him. That's why I couldn't help but show myself and chat with you after seeing your performance today! You must concentrate on your cultivation and strive to reach the realm of the Sacred Language Outer Continent as soon as possible. You must not let your teacher down!"

"Of course!" Zong Ze chuckled inwardly. "My teacher said that I have great talent and that it won't be long before I reach the Sacred Language Outer Continent, and I might even reach a higher realm. However, I don't know what this higher realm is. Do you know?"

"A realm higher than the Outer Continent of Sacred Words?" Karu pondered to himself. "Isn't that breaking through the Outer Continent and entering the God Realm? It seems this subordinate god is extremely powerful, otherwise he wouldn't casually tell his disciple that he could reach a higher realm! But thinking about it, it makes sense. If he didn't have such good talent, which subordinate god would take an idiot as his disciple? Hmm? No, an idiot? From an idiot to a normal person?"

"Zongze, can you tell me why you were called an idiot before, even though you are so talented?"

"My teacher told me that I was cursed with a vicious spell before I was even born, and it wasn't until my teacher found me that the curse was lifted!" Zong Ze replied!

"Just as I thought!" Karu thought to himself, "This child must have been cursed by the demons using some unknown means. Later, he was discovered by a subordinate god traveling on the Holy Word Continent, who helped him break the curse and took him as a disciple. By the God of Light, such a good opportunity was placed in front of me, yet I was unable to seize it! Look at what this child knows! Air Force? Divine Machine Battalion, I guess his teacher taught him all of that!"

Karu was frustrated because, as a guardian, his sole mission was to protect the royal family and ensure the secrecy of the Sacred Word Continent. He was forbidden from participating in anything concerning the continent, and even had to strive to keep his existence a secret from the world. Otherwise, the God of Light would unleash divine punishment, especially for the crime of interfering in the affairs of the Sacred Word Continent—a crime that would absolutely lead to his annihilation!

The punishment was brought down by the God of Light, while Munenori's teacher was at most a subordinate god! It's unlikely that he would offend his own god for his sake! So Karu was very frustrated. Originally, if he could just get along well with Munenori, it would be equivalent to having a subordinate god standing behind him. However, one was the inevitable punishment from the God of Light, and the other was the possible support from a subordinate god. Even a fool would know which one to choose!

Therefore, even though he knew there was an opportunity in front of him, and even though he knew that the royal family of the Rune Empire intended to target the main family, as a master of the Divine Sect Realm, he could only watch helplessly as all of this happened. It was truly a tragedy!

"Alright!" Thinking about all these frustrating things, Karu's initial excitement about the tactics completely vanished. "Child, focus on your training. I'm leaving! I believe we'll meet again soon when you break through to the Martial God realm!"

"Wait a minute!" Just as Karu was about to leave, Zong Ze suddenly called out to him, "Well, you haven't answered my question yet. Since you know my teacher, can you tell me who my teacher is? Where is he now?"

"This..." Karu was frustrated. "I also want to know the answer to this question, but you dare to ask, while I don't." He continued, "This Zongze, since your teacher chose to keep it a secret from you, it's for your own good. Believe me, when you reach the level that satisfies your teacher, you will naturally know what you should know. Didn't your teacher teach you? Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

"Damn it!" Zong Ze cursed inwardly as he watched Karu disappear. "Of course I know who my teacher is! Only an idiot like you would make wild guesses about my sect and end up scaring yourself. You moron, you can even guess that the secrecy regulations I took from Earth were taught by my teacher. You're really something!"

Meanwhile, the Blue Chess Players in the stands also received a telepathic message from Kalu: "Zongze has won, you can announce it. Also, I suggest you think carefully about Zongze! Try not to touch him if you can avoid it!"

"This..." Lan Qizhan didn't have time to consider what had happened, but it was a fact that Zong Ze had knocked Long Xiaotian to the ground with one blow. Therefore, Lan Qizhan officially announced that Zong Ze had won this duel!
