Master Liu's gaze was as sharp as an ice blade, staring straight at Zhang Rui. His voice was low and full of authority: "The prodigy spoken of by White Fox Immortal, is it really a brat like you? Your arrival has disrupted the balance of the barrier, causing much chaos. Do you realize that the entire Shadow League is now busy dealing with the consequences of your carelessness?"
Anxiousness appeared on Zhang Rui's face, a drop of cold sweat sliding down his forehead. Regret and unease churned in his heart. He vividly remembered that it was his inadvertent contact with a mysterious rune in the human realm that had accidentally disrupted the crumbling seal, leading him to traverse into this realm filled with unknown dangers, the Shadow Realm.
Facing Master Liu's reprimand, Zhang Rui suppressed the panic in his heart and attempted to respond with a humble attitude: "Master, I... I deeply apologize. I unintentionally touched the seal, causing all this chaos. I am willing to take responsibility for the problems I have caused and do everything I can to make amends."
A hint of evaluation seemed to flash in Master Liu's eyes as he continued to observe Zhang Rui coldly, as if trying to discern something from this young man. Zhang Rui's heart raced; he knew this was not only a test for himself, but also a crucial moment for him to establish himself in this new world.
Master Liu's anger seems to be growing, his voice gradually rising to almost a shout: "How dare you hang your head! Do you know how much trouble your impulsiveness has caused for Shadow League? Those crazy people from The Dark Mist are using the crack you opened to launch a frenzied attack on us! Our brothers and sisters in Shadow League have sacrificed too much to repair the damage you caused!"
Zhang Rui lifted his head, his expression even more pained, his eyes filled with remorse. Trembling, he replied, "I know... I... I'm truly sorry."
Master Liu's voice softened slightly, but still carried severity: "Sorry? Do you think a simple apology can make up for everything? Look at you, you don't even have a decent appearance, you're a mess, covered in wounds, you look like a tramp! Is this the image a member of the Shadow League should have? Your current appearance is an insult to our Shadow League!"
Master Liu's words were like a sharp blade, deeply piercing Zhang Rui's heart. Zhang Rui felt as if his heart had been crushed. He knew that his ignorance and incompetence had caused irreparable losses. He gritted his teeth, feeling a surge of unwillingness and determination: "I will prove myself. I will show the master that I am not just a troublemaking kid. I will show the master that I am capable of contributing to the Shadow League."
Master Liu cast a scrutinizing glance at Zhang Rui, his brow still furrowed. Although his anger seemed to have subsided somewhat, the resentment still lingered. He sat back in his chair, his gaze deep and serious as he looked at Zhang Rui, speaking with a tone of puzzlement and skepticism: "White Fox Immortal mentioned that you have the ability to control five magical elements, which should be a very rare and powerful gift. But why have you let yourself become like this? What happened on the road?"
Zhang Rui felt the weight in Master Liu's words, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his emotions. He replied softly, "I... I encountered Xingtian on the road, and his power far exceeded my expectations. Although I can control five magical elements, my experience in combat and control of power are still far from enough. I must admit that I was at a disadvantage when facing him."
Master Liu heard Zhang Rui mention Xingtian and the bandits, and involuntarily furrowed his brow, with a hint of vigilance and concern flashing in his eyes. His voice softened slightly, but still carried seriousness: "Xingtian? Is that old relic still alive? He was originally a warrior of the heavens, but later betrayed and became a scourge of the Shadow Realm. You escaping from his hands shows some skill."
Zhang Rui lowered his head, his voice weak: "Yes, I used all my strength to finally escape from them, but I also suffered quite a few injuries."
Master Liu picked up two round balls from the table and started playing with them in his hand, saying, "You should still have some strength left to survive from Xingtian's hands... after removing the part of good luck... the part of strength. There's no need for any additional tests." Then he said, "If you really want to prove your ability... I have a mission at hand right now, and I need help."
Zhang Rui stood in front of Master Liu, his eyes shining with determination and resolve. He took a deep breath, gathered his courage, and said firmly, "No matter how difficult the mission is, I am willing to try. Coming to this world is an opportunity for me to find my place and value. If I have the chance to make up for the damage I caused to the seal, I will do my best."
Master Liu's face gradually softened, and a hint of admiration flashed in his narrowed eyes: "Young man, your courage is admirable. It seems that White Fox Immortal has not chosen the wrong person." He paused for a moment, his gaze deep and seemed to make an important decision in his heart. He nodded slowly, with a hint of seriousness in his tone: "Alright, come back to me tomorrow, and I will introduce your mission in detail. Now, you should rest first and prepare adequately for tomorrow's discussion and possible mission."
Zhang Rui was filled with anticipation and confidence, believing that this mission would be an excellent opportunity to prove himself. He respectfully bowed to Master Liu and turned to leave. Just then, Master Liu's voice sounded again, with a slightly caring tone: "Before you leave, go to the Medical kiosk and have the doctor there look at your injuries. Your current condition doesn't look ideal, and your physical recovery is also important."
Zhang Rui nodded appreciatively and responded, "Thank you, Master Liu. I will go." A hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes as he then turned and left the room with firm and steady steps, pondering the upcoming challenges and unknown tasks. The pain in his body reminded him that he indeed needed timely treatment and recovery after the battle with Xingtian. With determined strides, he headed towards the Medical kiosk, his thoughts racing as he prepared to face new challenges.
