After Luis and his knights left the Xu family, tension lingered in the air. Inside the family hall, anger brewed.
"Uncle, why did you let that man act so arrogantly? He didn't take us seriously at all!" Xu Ma angrily questioned Xu Zhihao with a voice full of frustration.
Xu Zhihao shook his head, his eyes still fixed on the door where Luis had exited.
"Xu Ma, control your anger and look at things rationally. You are the next in family who has the highest chance of entering the innate realm; I don't want the family to be destroyed in your hands."
Xu Ma shut up after hearing this, but he still had eyes burning with anger. He shut up and said nothing more.
"That kid is from the Royal Court," Xu Zhihao added again, which caused shock to spread among everyone.
"The Royal Court?"
"What are they doing in a small town like this?"
"No wonder he didn't take our family seriously."
"What should we do? How do we even face something like that?"
"Everyone shut up; let the patriarch complete what he was saying."
"Yes, patriarch. How do you know about this?"
Everyone paled in shock and couldn't help but speak amongst each other.
"I was told this information by Cai Tian, the master of Turtle Martial Hall," Xu Zhihao clarified about it.
"He is here for the mission from the royal court to stay here so that he could catch the rising rebels within the kingdom." Xu Zhihao said it even though it was vastly different from what Luis explained to Cai Tian.
"Don't mess with the Royal Court. Our family cannot bear the consequences." Xu Zhihao warned
"Keep that trash in house arrest; if he goes out again, he might cause even greater trouble for us."
Xu Ma nodded and looked at Xu Lei with a deep look.
There was also the name of Pipi shown in green at the Ferterra Town. There was also a white dotted line connected between him and Pipi.
"Everyone, you can go rest now. You guys will start training martial arts training."
Arthur and others began to walk out tiredly. Today really was a tiring day as they fought against the Anyu Gang, but their faces were still full of expectation as they can finally practice martial arts again tomorrow.
Luis was also lying in his bed. His room was very messy with all kinds of things. He was looking at the new map he got and the movements of people in it as he slowly drifted into sleep.

Next Morning
Luis woke up a little late, and the first thing he looked at was the map. All eleven of his follower knights were already in the parade ground.
'These guys need to rest; like this, they can never enjoy their lives.' Luis began to freshen up and headed towards the parade ground.
As Luis made his way to the parade ground, he bumped into Michael, one of his father's most trusted advisors. Michael handled all intelligence related to the barony.
"Michael, when is Father returning?" Luis stopped Michael and questioned him.
"Young Master, he will return this week," Michael replied, bowing slightly.
Hearing this, Luis nodded and made his way to the parade ground.
Michael watched the back of Luis, who was walking away with shocked eyes. He couldn't believe the young master to have advanced so fast. He walked in a hurry; he needed to report this news to Lady Hartmann quickly.

At the parade ground, Luis saw the group of his knights along with many others practicing.
He joined them and finished practicing after an hour, his movements fluid and powerful, drawing respect from everyone watching.
Afterward, he left the parade ground with the other 11 knowingly following him.
Today, he was going to Ferterra town to meet Pipi and let others practice martial arts with peace of mind.
