Chapter 23: Manners Maketh Man

He immediately headed back to the Library with fast feet. He used his movement technique and just suddenly appeared in front of the Library as if he teleported in front of it.

The one who was recording the name of Cadets who was entering the library was surprised when Cheon Mujin suddenly appeared.

"Cheon Mujin, Cadet 9, Floor 2." Cheon Mujin said in a hurry. The guard quickly recorded his name and number and gave him a candle signifying his time limit.

"You have two hou-" Before he could even finished his words, Cheon Mujin vanished into thin air leaving the guard behind to talk to the empty air.

Cheon Mujin immediately headed to the second floor's Sapphire monument. And as expected the sword traces were present as if waiting for him.

Cheon Mujin's eyes narrowed and analyzed the sword technique and recorded it inside his head. He once again fell into a trance as hundreds of Godlike movements registered itself and embedded itself into his head.

The trance lasted for an hour, and without finishing his remaining last hour he left, he headed back into the forest and performed the formation he got.

Inside the forest, he swung his sword repeatedly hundreds and thousands of times until the sun disappeared from the sky giving some space for the moon to shine its light.

"Truly… wonderful martial arts…"

Complimented Cheon Mujin in a trance, captivated by the power and intensity of the Martial Arts he learned.

But what's more amazing was his talent. Cheon Mujin managed to comprehend the sword traces left behind by the Founding Father Cheon Ma and Sword Demon with nothing but a mere glance of his naked eye.

Dozens of martial artists with heavenly talent tried to comprehend the sword traces the same way he did but all of them failed without even making up a single sword movement yet here he was, fully comprehending the sword traces like it was a manual.

With that Cheon Mujin added a new martial arts into his arsenal. The most powerful martial arts in history of the entire martial world no less, remaining undefeated both in past, present, and future.

Cheon Mujin was walking down the hallway towards the Quarter of Group 9 in a good mood. Though his eyes remained in its perpetual string like form, there was a glint of joy within its cunning light.

But as he was walking down the hall, he felt a heavy footstep. Though the latter was obviously using a Step Concealment Technique used by assassins to hide their foot's sound, it was awfully loud for someone who is in the Supreme Master (Enlightened Grandmaster/Profound Realm) level the same level of the Five Strongest.

His upped lips lowered slightly from annoyance. Then he stopped in his stride and said in an irritated tone.

"What do you want, you troglodyte little shit?" Asked Cheon Mujin in an annoyed and quite frankly pissed voice.

From the shadows a young man showed himself forward, with hair tied to his back and smooth white skin accompanied by an arrogant smile, it was Cheon Yuchan the heir of Blade Clan.

"Heyya! How are ya?" The young man asked in an uppity manner. Though he didn't understand what Troglodyte meant he concluded that it was probably an insult.

"I was actually in a good mood until you showed yourself to me, you smooth brain bastard," Insulter Cheon Mujin.

Cheon Yuchan's eyebrow furrowed from anger, his face contorted to demonic proportions as his big ego got hit. Being the heir of Blade Clan and being unmatched in martial arts, his arrogance and confidence is sky high but to be insulted by Cheon Mujin, the mysterious Young Master, he felt his blood boil from anger.

"What did you say to me?" Asked Cheon Yuchan in a threatening manner while releasing his intimidating aura.

Cheon Mujin chuckled at his miniscule show of power. The other felt like it was an ant threatening an elephant with his tiny mandibles.

"Don't raise your voice in front of me, boy," Cheon Mujin said, releasing a sliver of his aura, making the air pressed down on Cheon Yuchan.

The ground cracked from the pressure, a testament of the strong force behind such intangible energy. Cheon Yuchan's face fell flat to the ground with helplessness, he tried to raise his head but the intangible energy prevented him from doing so.

His original goal was to intimidate Cheon Mujin and eliminate him from the academy by severely injuring but judging by the current situation, it seems that it was reversed.

"Kgghhh!" He gritted his teeth as the pressure crushed him more and more. Then suddenly he felt something pressed behind his head, it was the shape of a foot.

Fully knowing what was happening he screamed in rage and fury.

"Don't you dare kay your foot on my head!!" He shouted with his all but the foot only pressed harder.

"You know I could crush your head right? Don't raise your voice against me because there is nothing stopping me from killing you." Said Cheon Mujin in a cold and chilling tone.

At that word Cheon Yuchan's hair stood up from goosebumps, it seemed like the other was not joking at all. He really can kill him if he wants to, he doesn't seem to be afraid of his clan nor any clan in the Cult.

"Maybe I should just kill you right now since you have no purpose to serve me." Contemplated Cheon Mujin as he put more pressure on his foot creating some cracking sounds of skull, Cheon Yuchan felt like he was about to die but he persisted because if he did so he would truly die.

"I—I can serve you…. I can give up the battle for the throne!" He screamed. He may be arrogant and all but he still cares for his life, and he knows himself that his life is worth to him more than the position of the Lord.

"You are practically offering me nothing. With or without you, I can take the throne for myself so what's the point of sparing you?" Said Cheon Mujin, further making the latter sweat bullets.

"Please! Let me live! I- I can give to you the Blade Clan after I became the Clan Head!" This was his final offer, his desperate attempt to save his life.

Suddenly the pressure pinning down on him disappeared like it was magic and then when he lifted his head up he met Cheon Mujin's face with his perpetual cunning smile and string like eyes.

"I'll take you up on that offer." He smiled and disappeared.
