Looking at Situ Nan's pathetic condition, Victor stopped beating him after a while because his condition was already looking miserable.

Situ Nan's face was completely swollen, and after each slap some of his teeth were knocked out, so now there were no more than ten in his mouth, the rest were on the floor. Of course, Victor didn't care about his condition, but it was refreshing to feel his anger in the air.

"Now do you understand what you're wrong about?" - Stroking Mikena's head Victor asked.

If before Situ Nan was like an arrogant peacock, now he was completely deflated, all his arrogance was utterly destroyed leaving behind only a view that was rather pathetic to look at.

"I insulted grandpa and got a little punishment for it…" - He tried to smile brightly at Victor, but failed miserably, his smile did not look happy at all, but rather forced.

And about the fact that he called Victor "grandpa", it was overlooked when his face was slapped once again, he tried to suck up to Victor by calling him father first and then grandpa later in an attempt to douse Victor's anger and avoid the beating.

It looked pretty funny.

Ignoring him, Victor turned his gaze to the remaining young men in his group.

"Do you have a problem with that?" - He pointed with his chin at Situ Nan lying in blood, suggesting that they might stand up for him and later get beaten up and, like him, ask Victor's forgiveness, repenting for their actions. At least that's what he thought would happen.

But, he was wrong, after his words, the group of young people, at Victor's calm gaze as well as his casual words trembled and only one emotion was engraved in their eyes - fear.

When Victor slapped Situ Nan's face they just stood there with their mouths agape and watched stupidly as their friend and leader was beaten in front of them and they did nothing, of course they wouldn't just be scared of Victor.

But, when one of the young men wanted to join Situ Nani in order to help him, trying to suck up to his clan for this act he suddenly heard many young cultivators whispering about Victor calling him a "monster," a "butcher," and even a "smiling killer".

At first he didn't take it seriously, but as their conversations went on, he and his friends heard about Victor, some time ago, killing people and smiling as if enjoying the moment, some whispered that he even drank the blood of his enemies or collected their heads.

And the push factor out of fear was the memory of a conversation with Mu Bing Yun, who had recently said that she had been at the place where Victor was killing the bandits, and they even recalled one of the remarks in which she said that he was grinning.

At that moment a shiver ran down their spines, they pissed off this demon in human form but didn't take any guards with them. If he truly wanted to kill them, shouldn't there be someone who could help them?

Simply put, the people of Situ Nan's group never killed or, even under threat of death, completely ignored the level of cultivation, which up to a certain point was higher than Victor's.

"N-no." - They didn't dare look into Victor's eyes, for they thought he was too terrifying, and slowly backed away as if to confirm their stance.

'Am I that scary?' Victor shook his head, the group was scared out of their wits, and all he did was beat up Sita Nan with ease, without even cutting off a single limb or inflicting mortal wounds.

'They're still green,' he thought, in their minds they were afraid that he might kill them or something, but since Victor was too lazy to think or explain anything to them, he decided to just ignore it since their group had nothing to do with Victor at all.

After dealing with the arrogant young master, he turned around and decided to quickly pass the first stage of selection, after their incident, the selection seemed to have undergone significant changes. Before, all the young cultivators were overly nervous and tense before passing the first stage of the selection, but now their mood was quite cheerful.

There was nothing as entertaining as watching another young master being beaten up by someone imposing.

If their eyes at the sight of Situ Nan were mocking or pitying, with Victor quite respectful, he did not look like someone who can be easily offended, so as he approached the stele to pass the selection all participants involuntarily gave way to him forming a small corridor.

At the sight of this situation, the old man beside the stele smiled for the first time since his arrival in this city, while his eyes seemed to light up even more. He had only one thought in his head.

'If he joins our sect…' He didn't continue to think about what would happen next because he was so worried.

The old man with his cultivation base saw Victor's real cultivation level perfectly, so he knew that he should pass both the first and the second selections without much difficulty, and it would be surprising if he could not.

But, the old man silently prayed that Victor did not pass the trial, because then he could get him into his sect. Thinking about it, in his mind flashed the idea to cheat in the second selection and match Victor against the strongest rival of all participants. That way Victor should be unable to pass the second selection, essentially allowing him to then reach out his hand and convince him into joining his sect.

'But, what about this girl, she's obviously his woman.' Looking at her intently, he pondered, his sect forbade relationships between a man and a woman and this rule had been appointed directly by the sect master.

'I must convince her!' He made up his mind; it would be foolish to miss out on such a genius, and even better, there were two of them; the old man knew that if Victor decided to join his sect, the woman would go with him.

It was a win-win.
