"Yes, I told them to watch the next ranking battle before they decide."

"Good, all according to plan." Arthur smiled as all of this was within his calculations.

He wanted to build a great reputation and he would start by ranking first in the sect\'s outer rankings for as long as he will be part of the outer court.

He had to live up to the name he is known for by the sect...Invincible.

With that, he would attract all new disciples to join his faction which he was creating, and maybe even attract some of the older and stronger disciples to join.

But he also knew he would be making enemies with every other faction in the sect as no outer disciple owns a faction, even more so for a newly admitted disciple.

\'Let them come, I am not afraid. I have a plan for it already.\'

"Master, there were also a few who decided to join ahead of time."

"Oh? That\'s good then. I will meet up with them before the ranking battle. What about the other thing?"

Luke nodded, "I have the list of the strongest outer disciples and their abilities as seen from the last ranking battle."

"Hehehe, it seems you are very efficient, eh?"

"I am just carrying out my duties as I should, Master."

"Yeah right, look at those eye bags, I am sure you haven\'t slept properly. You have to run around for me and cultivate at the same time. Meanwhile, I only train in peace."

Luke smiled as he heard Arthur\'s caring tone.

"Thank you for your concern, Master."

"And that too, I have told you to just call me by my name when it is just the two of us. I see you more as a friend than a servant."

Luke furrowed his brows a bit for a second.

"What is it, you can\'t?"

"No, it\'s not that. I thought we were undercover in the sect and I can\'t call you by your real name."

"I know that, so just call me Invincible...a name I am coming to love by the way."

Luke looked at Arthur thoughtfully and then his eyes shined for a second as he said, "That\'s it, I know what to address you as."

"Okay..."

"Master Invincible!"

\'Aww, shit...he still doesn\'t get it....whatever.\'

Luke left and went to rest after being forced by Arthur to do so.

\'He makes me act like I am complaining about having such a hard-working underling.\'

Although Arthur sees Luke as a friend and he also sees him as his underling. Such a weird combination.

Arthur shook his head and decided to think of other matters.

Soon, word of Arthur\'s participation in the next Outer Court Ranking Battle spread throughout the Outer Sect and even the disciples of the Inner Sect heard of it.

"It has only been two months and he wants to show himself?"

"Are new disciples these days so arrogant, and he is even aiming for first place?"

"Even if he is a genius whose battle power is above six-star it would be too exaggerated to take first place."

"In my opinion, I think he would at most be at the first or second rank of the Gold Core Realm at the moment. But the top ten outer court disciples are all at the peak of the Gold Core Realm."

"You are right, and there are three-star and four-star battle geniuses within their ranks. Plus their fighting experience and mastery of various techniques, I don\'t believe he can take first place."

"First place? Bah! I say he won\'t even reach the top ten!"

Many disciples felt disbelief and doubted what Arthur was doing. No one was optimistic about his chances, but there were a few who felt he might be able to do it.

After all, a person who cleared the Sword Tower on his first try can not be a chill, normal practitioner.

There were only three people in the Outer Court that felt Arthur will succeed.

"Invincible...he just might do it," Zaith didn\'t know why but he had confidence in Arthur.

\'I can not slack off too...but too bad I will have to miss this ranking battle. Else, I would have loved to fight you.\'

Zaith thought these things as he walked deep into Misty Mountains and as for his purpose.

\'Time to find that...\'

"Hmph! They are all belittling him. They sure as hell will be disappointed when the time comes!" Sun Wukong almost attacked an Outer Court disciple when he heard how Arthur is being looked down on.

But then he remembered the rule of the sect that no battle was allowed outside of the fighting ring.

"Hmph! A bunch of monkeys!" He said that line to the disciples and walked off.

The disciples were annoyed but held themselves back from attacking.

​ As for the last person. He did not only feel that Arthur would win, but he was a hundred percent confident in Arthur.

"Master Invincible will live up to his name in this battle..." Luke only smiled in mockery when he heard the negative comments.

In just a few days, Arthur has been labeled as one of those arrogant geniuses.

Even the elders of the Outer Court discussed this matter.

"This youngster is in too much of a hurry to prove himself. He should have taken this year to learn martial arts techniques," An elder complained.

There was a reason why the sect gave the new disciples a year to train. It was not only for them to increase their cultivation to the Gold Core Realm.

It was also because the older disciples have learned several martial arts techniques to a high level. This and the fact that their cultivation level and battle experience are greater than the new disciples as they would be trashed by the older ones in a competition.

Most especially when there are three-star geniuses and four-star geniuses among them.

"You don\'t need to feel bad for him. Although he is highly unlikely to even enter the top ten, his rank will increase due to his battle power rating."

"That isn\'t a problem. The thing is, how will he deal with the failure which will be a stain on his reputation?"

"Hmph! If he can\'t even handle that, then his talent would be wasted on him and the Heavens were blind to bless him with it in the first place."
