Chapter 262: First Test

"Greetings, master!" Yang Zenke and the others youths greeted respectfully. Xiao Hua and the young girls of the Ice Cloud Sword Sect also greeted Jiu Shen with reverence.

Jiu Shen sat lazily on his chair while stroking a sleeping chubby white cat in his arms. 

This group of young elites stared at the pair with great respect and worship. Some of them were able to witness the prowess shown by Jiu Shen and Ice when the Xue Family rebelled. They no longer dared to look down on the fat snow-white cat lying peacefully in Jiu Shen's arms. 

Jiu Shen remained seated as he turned his gaze to the young cultivators in front of him. "You've done a great job on surviving inside the Endless Forest. I've even heard that some groups managed to defeat strong savage beasts during your training inside the forest. As a reward, I am willing to accept all of you as disciples of my Heavenly Sword Tower. Of course, you are free to decline this offer."
