Eternal Thief

Chapter 718 The Union Cultivation Tower (3)



The Sun and Moon Sword Union Cultivation Towers were known as another name among the Union Members, the Towers of Trials. 

Because the Cultivation Towers were filled with difficult trials for cultivators that were befitting for their cultivation ranks, these trials were difficult as well as rewarding. 

Not only inexperienced cultivators experience the real battles, tests of wits, and even life and death experiences could be gained in these towers, as long as the person taking the trials was prepared for the consequences. 

Then there was the Cultivation Tower Ranking. These rankings could be gained by performing competently in the Cultivation Tower as well as by climbing the Cultivation Tower floors. 

These rankings also represent a symbol of power and prestige in the Union, and high rankers were not only rewarded with more resources and unique rewards from the Cultivation Tower itself, but the private sector also sought them as the target of recruitment. 

Both Sun and Moon Domain Rankings were unanimous, and there was a ranking limit placed on a domain according to the Cultivation Towers floors present in a domain. 

The Outer Sun Domain Cultivation Tower has only ten floors, so its rankings start from 50,000,000 and end at 1,000,000. The ranking can't surpass 1,000,000th Rank unless the ranker moves into the inner domain Cultivation Towers and partake in its trials, and only the limits would go down to 1. 

The thing was, ranking below 100,000 were all occupied by the Union Instructors who were only a hair away from becoming a Union Elder. At the same time, the top 10,000 were all Union Elders and old monsters like the old heads of a clan in the private sector were all among the top 100. 

These rankings also decided which race was more powerful than the other and had more experts. 

At this moment, the Cultivation Tower of the Outer Sun Domain was crowded with Union Students and Union Scholars, all of them staring at the projection screen lit over a thousand feet tall Tower. This projection screen was as tall as the tower. 

That screen was filled with names and numbers, which started from 1,000,000 and ended at 1,100,000. Newly appointed Union Instructors normally occupied the top 100,000 rankers above the 1,000,000 ranks, and these spots and all of them mostly belonged to the Inner Sun and Moon Domains.

A Union Student can directly become a Union Scholar as they either pass a test at Foundation Building Realm or directly enter the River Realm. While a Union Scholar can become a Union Instructor only by passing a test when its cultivation reaches the Platinum River Core Realm or higher. 

Lastly, becoming a Union Elder from Union Scholar was even more difficult because not only they needed to be at least a Soul Manifestation Realm Cultivator, but they also needed to complete a special task as well as pass at least 20 cultivation tower floors! 

As for a Union High Elder, the Law Awareness Realm was the only demand which was the most difficult requirement in its own right. 

All those Union Students and Union Scholars outside the Outer Sun Domain Cultivation Tower were clearly not here to challenge the rankings as they knew even those Union instructors present in the outer sun domain couldn't appear in the ranking list on the tower, much less weaklings like them. 

They were only here to either gain experience or hone their fighting skills. 

The Cultivation Towers entry was also not free as every try would cost 100 Union Credit, and that's why only those rich guys would come here while the others would rather spend those 100 UC on the Union Cultivation Pavilion. 

However, at this moment, the calm atmosphere outside the Cultivation Tower suddenly broke when someone noticed a flying sword suddenly descend, and two figures walked down. 

"I-isn't… isn't that… the Junior Union Leader?!" Someone suddenly shrilled while exclaiming like he had seen a ghost when he saw White's eye-catching appearance. 

Those two new arrivals were naturally White and Grady. 

No one paid attention to Gray as they were all looking at White as if they had seen a ghost because these days, the hot topic of the youths among the Union was naturally the mysterious Jr. Union Leader. Even among the powerful figures, he was the focus of the conversation. 

Furthermore, White's portraits were already remembered by everyone by heart, so they could not offend him if they had once in a blue moon chance of meeting him. 

It was especially the case for the people in the Outer Sun Union as White was akin to God for them, and why did a God appear in a mortal world like theirs?

Yet now here they were looking at the posh young man standing straight like a sharp sword, the Jr. Union Leader in the flesh right in front of them. How could they not react excessively?

However, they failed to notice the purple robe Grady beside him, and suddenly Grady's aura spread like the wind. The next moment, those guys snapped out of their dazzle when they felt mountain-like pressure suddenly falls over them, and they finally looked at Grady. 

Grady's eyes were emotionless as they looked at all those juniors; with a hint of disdain, he coolly uttered, "Lord Jr. will be using the Cultivation Tower, empty the vicinity, and no one is allowed to enter a mile radius around the Cultivation Tower." 

'How convenient…' Ace clicked his tongue secretly, quite pleased with Grady's decisive performance.

But he needed to appear like someone who only cared about cultivation, not status or someone who enjoyed the spotlight.

So, he quickly said respectfully, "High Elder, please, there's no need to send these fellow cultivators away. They're here to cultivate as well, and I can't implicate their training just for my selfishness. 

"As long as they are minding their own business, I don't think we should take this kind of measures. My Union Brothers, treat me like you treat your fellow Union brothers. I'm nothing but a mortal like you who wants to cultivate." 

'Saying the person who closed off the entire library for a month just because he got annoyed…' Grady held his urge to roll his eyes as he couldn't show such behavior towards the Jr. Union Leader unless he wanted to draw the wrath of his race as well as the Union Leader. 

Furthermore, this was all going in his favor because he thought White would become overbearing and arrogant as long as he was with him and order him around, which was also the thoughts of almost all the High Union Elders. 

But now, it seemed White was not as overbearing as he appeared because of his closing off the library. He seemed someone who only cared about his cultivation and minding his own business and won't flaunt his authority as long as no one provoked him. 

"As you command, Milord." Grady smiled amiably before he retraced his ghastly aura, and all those guys suppressed by Grady's aura a moment ago felt like they had escaped hell. 

In front of the Law Awareness Realm Cultivator, everything was an ant!

Furthermore, the way they looked at White changed somehow as they now looked at him with more respect and reverence. 

"I'll be back." White nodded at Grady before he headed toward the large entrance of the Cultivation Tower, and everyone in his way quickly stepped aside with a respectful expression, and they even bowed their heads. 

---

The Union Leader, sitting over his throne, was looking at a large projection of White who just entered the Cultivation Tower, and the very next moment, the projection went dark. 

His unfathomed eyes shimmered in a peculiar glint while staring at the dark projection, 'One of the few places where I can't peer through…'
