5 Arrogance

Lucas decided to buy his own cultivation technique. Since he decided to walk in the path of cultivation, he needed a foundation for cultivation and it was that technique.

There are different types of techniques, as there are also existing ranking terms for every item. Items have a gauge of importance, starting from Spirit rank, ascending to Mortal, Earth, Heaven, and Celestial.

Now that he will buy a technique for cultivation, he still has things to decide.

Cultivation techniques aren't something that you can change in the way of your cultivation. Techniques are imprinted to your foundation, meaning, it will take a long time to convert your technique and would waste too much time, even halting permanently.

Lucas started to see the Saber City. If he is right, people would act the way he landed on the Duster City.

Thus, he decided to land in front of the guards to have a little privilege in their time.

As the guards and people saw a flying human figure, they act on their instinct pointed it.

"Look! An expert is coming!"

"Move! Vacate the area!"

"This is my first time seeing a cultivator fly without the assistance of treasures! Much less, an expert who flies on his own!"

"Let's see who was the expert!"

Everyone was mesmerized by Lucas' figure. Even though he wears a strange outfit, they can forget it as he is handsome enough.

There are also surprised by his young appearance. Though it is not a matter of seeing one's appearance in the cultivation world, they can still feel youthful in him.

Lucas just smiled that everything from his anticipation worked. He landed majestically and faced the guards at the gate.

The guards approached him before bowing before him.

"Senior! Welcome to Saber City. Can we ask if you need our help?" One of them asked.

"I want to ask where I can buy techniques. My acquaintance said that I can find better techniques here." Lucas said.

"Yes! There is, Senior! It is the Golden Pavilion!" A guard answered and pointed him in the direction of the building.

"Thank you," Lucas said before leaving them.

Lucas headed immediately to the shop. There, he saw a 3-story building akin to a pagoda.

"These roofs are strange for me. But let's not mind it, I must buy a technique so that I can start cultivating." He mumbled to himself in an inaudible tone.

He stepped into the building, but alas, fate started moving in a bad direction where he met someone arrogant and disrespectful.

When he bumped a youngster, he retracted immediately and apologized. "Sorry."

However, the youngster was kind of a green stalk in a hay. Standing out that he even yelled while his veins are popping out.

"Who dares to bump me?!"

'Oh, so he must be hurt if that so?' He thought while observing the youngster in front of him.

Lucas just acted on his instinct and apologized again. Alas, the other one isn't a simple egg.

"Who are you?! Why did you bump me?!" He exclaimed.

Lucas just sighed as it is common for him to meet someone who is filled with arrogance.

"I didn't bump you. It was an accident. You can see, right? The crowd in the path." Lucas responded.

However, the reaction of the bystanders is surprised. They gasp when they heard Lucas answering the youngster nonchalantly.

"He must be crazy. That's Felip Cai. He's dead since he answered him."

"What a pity. That crazy strange and expensive robe will be confiscated I bet."

"Well, who dares to offend the son of a renowned tycoon? His family is blooming with influence nowadays."

Hearing some gossips, Lucas looked back at the mentioned Felip Cai. Now that he looked at him one more time, he is a rich-looking boy as his flamboyant garments are screaming in wealth.

However, for Lucas, it wasn't important, as he only wants to finish this immediately.

Arrogance is normal for those who are proud people. As they are both different matters, it is also linked to confidence.

The youngster he is encountering is someone mixed with pride and confidence. Since he knew that no one could touch him in this place, he can yell anytime he wants.

"Look. I don't care who you are. I already apologized and it was sincere. If you are looking for a mess, better get out before… sighs." After remembering that he doesn't like bullying the weak, Lucas halts his talk.

"Bastard. I don't care if you are from a wealthy family too. Look at yourself, your garments are strange so I bet you are a foreigner. So better kneel to me before I kill you."

Wait a minute. Lucas doesn't like bullying the weak, however, it depends if the one he is meeting is not weak.

But alas, it's not important, as he knows that power comes in different ways, he doesn't want a mess so he remained calm at this moment.

"I don't care. I already apologized; my job is done." Lucas said, almost irritated at his tone.

"Oh no. This guy is sick! He is offending someone from the Cai Family!"

"He is done. I wouldn't even dare to look at his eyes, yet this strange egg is looking at him fiercely!"

"What's going to happen to him? Will he be going dead at this moment?"

Another explosion of gossips echoed, reaching Lucas' ears. Despite ignoring it, he couldn't just remain unbothered by it.

"Wait. Is it just I or something is wrong with my senses! He doesn't have a cultivation base!"

"Now that you mentioned it, I can't feel any Qi from him!"

"Dumbass, he is a mortal, just shorten your words!"

Lucas sighed for another time before starting to move his own feet. But Felip Cai is an insisting type of person, he demanded Lucas to kneel again.

"Where are you going?! I said kneel!" He exclaimed in irritation.

Lucas hovered his gaze to Felip's feet. He raised his eyebrow before looking at him again.

"Why would I?" Lucas sneered, as after saying it, another boom of words exploded from the audience.

"He is crazy."

"Yup crazy!"

"Felip Cai is at Warrior Spirit Realm. There's no way a mortal like him can face his rage."

Although there is a pity in their voice, no one dares to intervene in the scene.

Lucas thought a brilliant idea. That appears he might be wanting to tease Felip.

"Make me," Lucas said with a teasing grin.

Noticing that Lucas wasn't agitated by his threats, Felip was enraged more now that Lucas is wearing an eerie grin.

A few seconds later, violent energy emerged from Felip's body. Exposing his cultivation base.

However, Lucas wasn't bothered by it. More of it, he just nonchalantly observed Felip explode in anger.

"Very well."

At first, Lucas tried to emit some of his killing intent.

An invisible pressure exploded from his body, almost removing the breaths of the normal people watching them.

However, since Felip was covered from his energy, he didn't feel any pressure coming from Lucas.

"Bad luck for me I guess," Lucas mumbled when he noticed that Felip was unaffected by his killing intent.

It must be centuries for him to emit killing intent. Although he was minding the people around him so he lessened the pressure, it was still powerful that a mortal can lose his breath being exposed from his aura.

"You will know my name! NO ONE DARES OPPOSE FROM THE CAI FAMILY!" Felip exclaimed as he rushed to Lucas with his fist in the air.

Lucas just inspected his attack, calmly chanted a spell to strengthen his body.

'I was thinking of saving myself from using a spell so that I can try cultivation. But I can't let myself die in this situation, right?' He mumbled inwardly.

"Strengthen." Lucas chanted as his bones lit up from mana, strengthening his whole body to the next level.

Lucas lifted his arms open, waiting to catch Felip's fist. When Felip saw this, he grinned in the success that he can feel the victory coming to him.

But to his surprised, Lucas caught it easily, without even budging from his position.

When Felip saw this, he was baffled. Even the audience who remained silent since Lucas' pressure gasp in surprise.

No one can believe that a mortal with strong killing intent, even without cultivation can catch a full fist of a Warrior Spirit Realm cultivator.

"This was it? What a puny move." Lucas finally showed some arrogance.

He lifted his catch, effortlessly swung it to the outside of the building.

Thud!

A noise merged coming from Felip's buttocks hitting the ground.

"I don't practice arrogance. Because if I did, anyone who offended me from my world would live in chaos, even those innocents." Lucas mumbled in a low tone when he realized what he just did.

Alas, it was too late for him to regret as he finally did the taboo in his diary – do not judge with arrogance, just be confident but not too arrogant.

He just smiled, shaking his head that he recalled that nonsensical promise he did to himself to remain the peace of his mind.
