"Big bro, you finally made it—thank god! This guy's called Ryan Ling, he's..." Next to him, Shigeru Fujita, who'd been scared out of his wits, suddenly perked up, and Logan Long and the others also let out a sigh of relief. With Ryan Ling being such a 'monster,' it seemed only Tsuyoshi Fujita—the strongest Water-Breaker Sword Sect master in the last twenty years—could possibly take him on.
"No need to explain! I know everything already!" Tsuyoshi Fujita clenched his fist, bones cracking loudly as a swirl of green aura instantly wrapped around his whole body.
At that moment, Tsuyoshi Fujita glanced at Ryan Ling, then shot a sideways look at Logan Long behind him.
Logan Long froze—just the pressure from this Green-Realm grandmaster made it hard for him to breathe. One look from Tsuyoshi was enough to soak his back in sweat, and beside him, Drake Long and Brandon Feng were already on their knees, totally crushed; their strength here was nothing but ants among ants.
Logan quickly bowed and explained respectfully, "Master Tsuyoshi Fujita, w-we're all on the same side!"
Tsuyoshi just grunted and withdrew his aura, but Logan still felt dizzy, like he'd just taken a round trip to the gates of Hell.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet—seven color-realm grandmaster ranks, with green at the very center. It's the most crucial stage: once you hit Green-Realm, people start calling you a true grandmaster. Whether it's strength, presence, or future martial prospects, your potential is basically unlimited. Anything below green is just a junior grandmaster—the gap in power doesn't even need explaining.
Logan Long's current strength is stuck at peak Yellow-Realm. He’s been grinding away for three years straight and still hasn’t broken through to green. He dreams about it every night, but it just never happens. So he’s got this mix of envy and resentment toward the Green-Realm.
And generally, anyone who reaches Green-Realm grandmaster in the Azure Dragon Society is guaranteed a promotion—becoming a Hall Master. That's the position Logan Long would kill for.
Too bad, for now it’s all just wishful thinking!
