Chapter 6 : The Path of the Nine Dragons

Sword Manic suggested Arnab and persuaded him to try the entrance test of the Nine Dragons Sect. Arnab was hesitant, as he wanted to continue working in business. However, Sword Manic reminded him that the Nine Dragons Sect not only taught martial arts but also provided valuable life lessons, such as discipline and self-improvement. He also pointed out that being part of the sect would help Arnab build connections and improve his reputation.

"But I don't know anything about martial arts," Arnab protested.

"You don't need to," Sword Manic replied. "The Nine Dragons Sect values intelligence and hard work just as much as martial arts skills. With your business acumen, you'll fit right in."

Arnab still seemed unsure, so Sword Manic added, "Plus, as an outer-disciple, you'll have access to the sect's resources and teachings, and you'll only have to attend class three days a week. You can still continue with your business endeavors on the other days."

Finally, Sword Manic offered to write Arnab a recommendation letter, which would greatly increase his chances of being accepted into the sect. Arnab was still hesitant, but he couldn't deny that the opportunity was tempting. He thanked Sword Manic and promised to consider his offer.

As he walked home, Arnab thought about Sword Manic's words. Joining the Nine Dragons Sect could provide him with the skills and connections he needed to succeed in the martial world, and perhaps even in business. He decided to take the entrance test and see where it led him.
