YM778.TV Chapter 301 - Practice Grounds
White, silver, red and golden. Each Grade was correlated with a specific color with white being Mortal Grade techniques while golden being Celestial Grade ones. Also, if there were two or more scrolls with the same color but different Levels, then it would be shown through their shade as the deeper their tone was, the higher their Level truly was.
"Is there any which is related to fan-type weapons? I can\'t see any." Khal asked calmly without averting his gaze from the scrolls.
"A fan-type Martial Technique?" the Berserker looked confused as he thought Khal used a dagger and not a fan.
\'Why does he want such a technique? Is he looking one for someone or is he in truth a fan user and just used that dagger as a disguise?\' the Berserker tried to guess the truth, but as he noticed Khal\'s impatient look he quickly snapped out of his daze and nodded.
"Y-Yeah. I just to have one, but it\'s only at the Mortal Grade." the Berserker explained as he took down a dark-white scroll from the side and handed it over to Khal.
\'Peak Level?\' Khal immediately recognized the scroll\'s level and opened it.
Reading through the brief explanation, Khal\'s eyes brightened up and glanced up.
"How much for this?"
The Berserker looked surprised by how excited Khal looked just after reading through it once, but still answered, "A h-hundred Gold Coins. And this time, this is the original price, I swear!"
"A hundred Gold Coins? Seems good for me." Khal nodded and without hesitation took out a hundred pieces of Gold Coins from his spatial ring.
"Here."
The Berserker was speechless as he didn\'t believe Khal to keep his words and really pay the money, but soon snapped back to reality and bowed at him.
"Thank you very much, Young Master. Is there anything else you need?"
"I don\'t, or wait... Yeah, I have, as a fact." Khal nodded.
"And what would that be?"
"Is there a place in this city where I can practice these techniques?"

"So this is the legendary place? Interesting." Connor said with a curious gaze as he examined the ancient gate before him while he and many other experts from Moon Academy stood on his side, including Logan who was wrapped in bandages all over his body.
"Yeah, according to the legends, this place once had the Moon Goddess." nodded Jas and explained, "It was guarded all this time by a terrifying Moonlight Rabbit, a beast above the Ninth Cultivation Stage."
"So the rumors about such beasts were indeed true. I can hardly believe it, though, I would like to fight with one, one day." Raffin touched his chin while showing an excited smile.
"Then you would be killed in seconds." Logan refuted Raffin\'s idea with a nonchalant look.
"Huh? You mean I am weak?" Raffin raised a brow, feeling slightly offended by that declaration.
Logan shifted his gaze at Raffin before looking at his own condition and asked, "Do you think you would stand a chance alone if the three of us could hardly win against that thing? Think before you speak."
"This time, he is right." Scarlett sighed as she looked at the gate, halting Raffin just in time before he could have started to argue. Even the rest of the experts behind her nodded, they too knowing if Logan was almost killed while he was teamed up by Jas, then Raffin truly stood no chance at all!
Of course, neither of them knew that in fact, Khal helped them too. If they would, they would simply get dumbstruck not only because three top individuals were incapable of killing a single beast with ease, but because Khal has already reached the Ninth Cultivation Stage!
"Well, it does not matter anymore, let\'s go, shall we?" Jas asked and once everyone nodded, he pushed the gates open.
"T-This!"
Many were left speechless upon feeling the density of essence in the place while also seeing the breathtaking sight, but Jas just merely smiled and said, "Just wait. The best part is yet to come."
Shortly after, Jas led the group of experts into Moon Temple, causing all of them to drop their jaws when they saw the outrageous amount of treasures, together with the Secret Arts and Spiritual Weapons all around in the hall.
"If you decide to join my sect, you will be allowed to choose one Spiritual Weapon and a Secret Art from this place freely. The choice is yours." smiled Jas calmly, waiting for the reaction of the other.
And to his not so surprised, everyone raised their hands immediately, indicating they wish to join his sect.
"Perfect." Jas nodded and tossed several silver tokens to the people before him once taken out of his spatial ring and continued, "Then as promised, go and choose."
Immediately, everyone hurried to look around, hoping to find a Spiritual Weapon they like. Meanwhile, Jas told Logan to do the same but also make sure to watch the others just in case if they want to steal something, and went to the second floor.
\'I wonder if he is still cultivat-, huh? W-What happened here?\' Jas pondered before his steps came to an abrupt halt and looked at the sight before him with widened eyes.
"Where is he? Why is there blood?" Jas muttered with narrowed eyes, while he couldn\'t help but feel worried upon seeing that Khal has strangely vanished.

Meanwhile, in Crimson Horn City, Khal stood before a small gate, while his gaze was fixed on the scenery behind it.
A huge open field which was separated into four, square sections, each section looking different things than the rest.
\'So this how the Practice Grounds look like, huh?\' Khal thought, and walked through the gate.
