"What?!" Su Hua shouted in disbelief. He remembered back when he saw Alexander. He was only a high rank 2 Alchemist. He even watched his test personally. But why did he suddenly become a rank 4 Array Master?

"Are you sure?" He asked Bazza once again.

"Absolutely."

Even Su Yue and Toran were dumbfounded. It was such an unbelievable thing to hear. Alex was an Alchemist, since when he became an Array Master?

"There must be a misunderstanding. That boy should be an Alchemist." Su Hua said.

"He is absolutely a rank 4 Array Master. I just personally tested him today. With his skill alone, I could certainly say he will become a golden rank 4 Array Master sooner or later."

Su Hua flustered. He was wondering why Bazza could say it so sure. A ridiculous thought came to his mind.

'Did he fake his Alchemist Identity to hide his Array Master identity? Is this the reason why I can't meet him in the Alchemist Guild back in Heavenly Sword Town because he only comes to the Array Master Guild?'

When that thought flashed in his mind, his forehead was full of sweat. He felt that he had aged a few more years.

If Alex was an Alchemist. He thought with his skills, he should be a low rank 3 Alchemist if not mid rank. But it turned out he was even more monstrous than his wildest imagination.

He was an Array Master... a job that was even more respected than Alchemist or Forging Master. And he was even a rank 4 Array Master. How can that be a justice?

He looked at Su Yue and sighed disappointedly. "You are going to have a closed-door cultivation for five years. You will practice Alchemy and advance your cultivation."

"Grandfather?" Su Yue was bewildered.

"Mista!" Su Hua shouted.

Not long after, a brown-haired man appeared beside him.

"Bring her inside. Make sure she can't do anything funny."

"Understood."

Seeing that, Bazza immediately released her from his Spiritual Energy, and Mista grabbed her and brought her inside.

"Grandfather!" Su Yue tried to call her grandfather but to no avail.

Su Hua then looked at Toran.

"Master, I..."

"Don't call me Master again. You are not my disciple."

"Master, please listen to my explanation." Toran tried to explain, but Bazza and Su Hua ignored him. Bazza even used a Sound Insulation Array to make him silent.

"Old Bazza, are you going to meet the sect master?"

"That's my plan."

"We will bring him along with us so the sect master can punish him. Haiz... I have been telling the sect master about this boy, but he never cared. Let's go."

Bazza nodded. Both of them flew.

On the way, Bazza asked. "Who is he?"

"His name is Alexander Sirius, Heavenly Sword Sect's disciple."

"Heavenly Sword Sect's disciple?" Bazza was startled when he heard that. It was such a waste of talent. If he was in the care of Mount Hua Sect, he might already become the one and only rank 5 Array Master in a few decades.

"You also feel it is such a waste, right? I tried, alright. I tried. I thought about matching him with my granddaughter by letting them spend some time together. I even stayed in Heavenly Sword Town's Alchemist Guild for more than a year for that. But this was what I found..."

"Haiz..." Bazza shook his head helplessly.

Both of them came to visit the sect master. The sect master had long white hair and a long grey beard. He was surprised to see Su Hua suddenly come to him. Even more so when he brought Bazza too with him and another person that seemed to be muted by Bazza.

"What happened?"

"Sect Master. Do you remember about the person I told you about?"

"The alchemist boy that you thought was a genius?"

"Yeah. I came to you to talk about it again."

"Why did you even bring that topic back again. Since he is going to abandon his path in Alchemy, then it is up to him. We have Saga in our sect. He is a twenty five years old mid-rank Alchemist. That guy couldn't be compared to our Saga." He snorted.

When Su Hua brought this discussion again, his neutral eyes became hostile again. Su Hua had bothered him for a long time with this Alex.

"Listen to me first!" Su Hua couldn't take it anymore. It was already frustrating for him to know that her granddaughter acted like that and disowned his disciple. His head was in a mess at this time.

"Sect Master Antonius. I don't care about your previous grievance with this Alex. Even though we have been in a mutual relationship with Mount Hua Sect. If you keep talking bad to one of our precious rank 4 Array Masters. Then don't blame me if I am impolite." Bazza said while glaring at the sect master.

Antonius was startled when he heard that. "Your precious rank 4 Array Master?"

Su Hua affirmed it, "Yes. I assume Alexander used his identity as an Alchemist as a cover. He used it as a cover to hide his Array Master identity. When I met him back then, he was a high rank 2 Alchemist. So, it is safe to assume that his Alchemist rank is still the same.

"I thought with his sword alone, he could be considered as a genius. Along with his Alchemist skill, he was a peerless talent. But I was wrong. He was not a peerless genius. He is a monster. He is not an Alchemist but an Array Master. He is already a rank 4 Array Master to boot."

"Array Master? Rank 4?" Antonius was still dumbfounded, trying to process everything in his head. Back then, Su Hua told him that Alex was a sword genius. He could copy another person's skill just by watching it.

Although he had good talent in Alchemist too, he thought he was going to abandon that talent when he chose to go to Heavenly Sword Sect.

He really abandoned his Alchemist identity because Alex was going to change his identity as an Array Master, which was more monstrous than Alchemist.

Without someone guiding him, Alex could become a rank 4 Array Master. Just looked at his age, not even two years had passed from then. He must be only twenty two or twenty three years old this year.

'What a monster!'

"Where is he now? We can't let him go back to Heavenly Sword Sect."

"He just took his Array Master test today with Elder Bazza."

"He already left this town a few hours ago. You won't be able to catch him." Bazza only snorted. What a fool.

"We can just pair him up with... That's right. We have Samanta. Although she is already over thirty years old, she could be considered as the number one female in the younger generation. Or we can just pair him with your granddaughter, Su Yue."

"Sigh... it is already too late for that. And besides, with that person in his tail, I think no other females in our sect will be a match to her."

"Her?" Antonius looked at Su Hua in confusion.

"Yeah. This is the reason why I came here. Do you remember when Rainbow Flower Sect made an alliance with us because the only daughter of their sect master fell in love with someone from our sect?

"She said he is not an alchemist nor a forging master. If she realized that the person is not from Mount Hua Sect but from Heavenly Sword Sect. The first thing they will do is to call off this alliance thing."

Letizia La Scola indeed had come to this place. She told them she had fallen in love with someone from the sect. Because she couldn't say anything about Alex's identity, including his identity as an Array Master, she could only search him herself.

To have the number one beauty in Wilow Continent as well as search for him. There should be no man who would hide from that. But, in reality, she never found that man in Mount Hua Sect.

She was convinced Alex was an Array Master because she saw Alex use his Tortoise Shell Array to protect the medicine herbs from their collision. Alex had a Pure Fire element to boot. She immediately thought only the Mount Hua sect could nurture such talent.

"But, he is from Mount Hua Sect. She said she had fallen in love from someone in Mount Hua Sect."

Su Hua shook his head. "Did she say who he is?"

Antonius shook his head.

Su Hua knew Alex's way of solving a problem pretty well. He immediately thought Alex must have made her promise under Heavenly Oath like the one he made him do.

"He must haven't told her about his identity. And from his identity as an Array Master alone could make her think he must come from Mount Hua Sect."

"!!!" Everything clicked in his mind.

"I tried so many times to convince you about him. I tried." Su Hua made his point first.

"Kh!" This time, Antonius didn't have any word to retort him.

"Then we can only kill him. We can't let Heavenly Sword Sect have him."

Suddenly an oppressive atmosphere came from beside them. It was Bazza.

"Kill..." Bazza glared at Antonius. "It is already so hard to produce a rank 4 Array Master. And he is still young. If you are trying to take his life..."

With just his glare alone, they already knew that Bazza would fight them to protect Alex. Bazza thought it might be a good idea to go to Heavenly Sword Town and manage the Array Master guild there.

Even though Alex was a stranger, Alex was still one of their Array Masters. As a veteran in Array Master's path, he knew how hard it was to produce a single rank 4 Array Master. But Alex had the potential to reach rank 5 Array Master.

Although protecting Alex like this was a pointless job, he also had a dream as an Array Master. He wanted to witness the birth of a rank 5 Array Master, even though it was not himself.

Even Antonius sweat dropped from this. Bazza was only an 8-Star Martial Lord, while he was a 2-Star Martial King. But if they fought, he would need to pay a huge price to kill him only because of his identity as an Array master.

"Cough... We have so many pills here. I'm sure he will need that. We can just give him a few rank 5 pills, and he will come to this place. Then we can have a drunk pill and let him have a steamy night..." Antonius said while looking at Bazza.

"Hmph!" Bazza only snorted. As long as they didn't kill Alex, it didn't matter to him. He didn't care where Alex belongs. He only wanted to witness the birth of rank 5 Array Master.

The two continued discussing Alex's matter. They tried to chase Bazza away, but he won't budge. And it seemed that this Toran was going to be punished to death by the sect rule.

...

A few days later,

Alex finally one hour away from Heavenly Sword Town. He should have around a week or so to prepare himself for the tournament. He would challenge the Battle Tower a week later.

He continued flying to his house as he wanted to learn the rank 4 Gathering Array.

In Song Yu house,

Three people were arguing.

The first one had blonde hair that reached her waist. She was looking at her tea with her blue eyes calmly. It was Song Yu.

The other one also had the same facial feature: Blonde hair and blue eyes. But unlike Song Yu's small figure, her body figure was similar to Putri.

The other one was another young lady who had long orange hair. She only closed her eyes calmly as she sat behind the second girl. Her job was to guard the second girl when she came to this place. Song Yu and the second girl were arguing, and the correct choice for her was to keep her mouth shut.

"Sister, why didn't you want to come back with me?"
