"A terminator can only rely on their external power to become stronger. Without the World-Termination-Armour, they are nothing," another Elder scoffed.
To strong people like them, a terminator could only obtain their powers using tricks. From the bottom of their hearts, they had not cared about the power of a terminator at all. The reason that they had acted that day was only because of the Emperor's orders and had no choice.
"If I had to say, why is there a need for all of us to act? Wouldn't Master Yue alone be able to capture that young little brat?"
The guards at the side listened in trepidation as the elders exchanged sentences and slowly degraded terminators, whom everyone respected so highly, to a worthless title.
They were clear that these people were the real powerful ones.
In early years when the Eldest Princess had just ordered Zhan Fei to be her personal bodyguard, she had ordered him to exchange blows with the 13 elders because of her curiosity.
As a result, the youngest fighter used one move and it already made Zhan Fei, who was in his World-Termination-Armour, unable to stand up and had to recuperate for three months.
And this was the result after the fighter went easy on him.
The difference in the capability of a terminator and these 13 people were very obvious ever since then.
Master Yue smiled and was about to say something, when he suddenly saw a huge elephant statue walk out slowly from the entrance of the palace. On the elephant statue, there was a pretty looking young lady.
Ji Fengyan rode the elephant statue out of the palace slowly. When she glanced around, all she could see were ten thousand over soldiers packed. Her lips curled into a smile and her face did not show any fear.
"You're Ji Fengyan?" Suddenly, a deep voice reached Ji Fengyan's ears.
Ji Fengyan looked down and saw the 13 elders standing at the forefront of the guards, and these words came from one of them.
Ji Fengyan did not know the other party, but the burly man following Ji Fengyan recognised him with a look.
"Crap, it's Duan Muxi!" the burly man frowned and said.
"Who?" Ji Fengyan was foreign to this name.
The burly man said in hush tone, "Duan Muxi had the title of being the best sorcerer. It was rumoured that he had reached a level of being a Master of Heavenly Creatures and was one step away from being a God of Sorcery!"
Ji Fengyan raised her eyebrows slightly.
There were eight grades of being a sorcerer—from an apprentice, to a beginner sorcerer, mid-grade sorcerer, high-grade sorcerer, advisor of creatures, advanced advisor of creatures, master of heavenly creatures, and the highest level being the saint of sorcery.
It was rumoured that upon reaching the highest grade of any occupation, one would have powers as strong as a God.
And Duan Muxi had reached the level of a Master of Heavenly Creatures, just one level from being a Saint of sorcery.
Even for Lei Qin, whom Ji Fengyan met previously, she was very intelligent since birth but had only reached the level of a mid-grade sorcerer. Compared to Duan Muxi, she was not worth mentioning at all.
"Little brat, you have to be careful. This Duan Muxi's powers cannot be underestimated." The burly man frowned. He had never imagined that the Emperor would even summon a person like Duan Muxi.
"A Master of Heavenly Creatures is it?" Ji Fengyan laughed and her eyes met with his. "That's right, I am Ji Fengyan."
