"Really?" Fade narrowed his eyes, glanced at Kaeran and continued to ask, "Then, for the past three years, why did you only teach her about traditional Chinese medicine and nothing about martial arts?" The sweat on Kaeran's forehead began to drip, "Well, I've considered that Jasmine is talented in Chinese medicine, and that it's not good for girls to fight. That's why I only taught her Chinese medicine and not martial arts."

"Really?" Fade asked coldly.

"It's true, it's all true." Kaeran hurriedly explained, "Also, Jasmine wasn't interested in martial arts at that time, so I didn't teach her."

Kaeran then looked at Jasmine with an expectant expression.

Jasmine nodded her head gently, confirming Kaeran's words.

Fade was silent for a while and seemed to be convinced by Kaeran's explanation.

Kaeran wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He breathed a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed slowly.

However, at that moment, Fade's eyes narrowed and he said coldly, "Then let me ask one last question. Jasmine has never learned martial arts for the past three years. Why is her body full of energy now, equivalent to that of a middle stage Black Level martial artist? How did you do this? Why?"

The question caused Kaeran to tremble. His expression became visibly flustered, and his eyes began to flicker, "I, this..."

"Don't try to find an excuse. Tell me the truth! Otherwise, you'll die for sure!" Fade's energy burst from his body. A violent energy enveloped Kaeran, carrying with it an incomparably oppressive pressure. Kaeran was shaking all over. He was nervous and looked like he was in a dilemma. His mouth quivered and he didn't want to say anything, "Well, well, I..."

The more reluctant he was to speak, the more Fade became suspicious of him. With a cold snort, he raised his hand and placed it on Kaeran's head. In a cold voice, he said, "I'll give you ten seconds. If you don't say anything... Die!"

"I, I..." Kaeran was really in a panic. The sweat on his forehead rolled down like a waterfall and he was extremely nervous.

Meanwhile, Fade began to count down.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

Following Fade's countdown, the terrifying pressure above his head increased. Kaeran felt a deadly energy pressing down on him.

Seeing the killing intent in Fade's eyes intensifying, Kaeran could not hold on any longer. He quickly said, "I'll talk, I'll talk."

"Speak!" Fade's palm stopped above Kaeran's head.

Kaeran said with a trembling voice, "It's because I found that Jasmine has a very rare wood-spirit talent. She's a talent in learning and practicing wood-class martial arts. Therefore, I chose to teach her knowledge related to Chinese medicine. However, what I taught was not just ordinary Chinese Medicine. It also had wood-class martial arts practicing."

"As for her wood- spirit talent, it's highly compatible with my disciple Hamlet, to promote the practicing of both parties. That's why I chose to let them get married. At the same time, I stimulated Jasmine's wood- spirit talent and let her previous cultivated skill be released all at once. That's why she has the energy of the early stage of the Black Level."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked. All of them turned to look at Jasmine in unison.

Even if they weren't martial artists, the nobility knew the basics about them. Each martial artist had their own method for practicing and techniques.

For ordinary talented people, it would take them two to three years to enter the early stage of the Yellow Level.

Those who were slightly more talented would be able to achieve the early stage of the Yellow Level within half a year.

For seriously talented individuals, they would achieve it within one or two months, and they were considered geniuses. It was a standard similar to the local geniuses in many areas in the country.

As for Jasmine's wood-spirit talent, she was even more talented than those geniuses. It was especially the case when she cultivated woodclass martial arts. She had an excellent affinity to the wood- spirit talent, allowing her to achieve twice the results with half the effort and her efficiency was amazing.

It was the reason why Jasmine's pace was so rapid.

After figuring it out, everyone finally understood why the Principal of Szeto Academy chose such an ordinary girl as his beloved disciple's wife. It turned out that he took a fancy to Jasmine's talent. For a moment, many people nodded subtly as they finally understood Kaeran's thoughts.

All their doubts seemed to have been explained. Although Kaeran's way of doing things might not be transparent and straightforward, it was still human nature. Everyone could understand him. On the contrary, Fade remained silent for a while and did not make a sound.

He stared at Kaeran for a while, then waved to Jasmine and said, "Jasmine, come here!"

Then, he said, "Bring Hamlet here!"

"This..." Everyone was surprised and puzzled, but they did not dare to disobey Fade's order and quickly brought the injured Hamlet over.

Fade looked at the two people in front of him, grabbed their wrists and felt their pulses.

The guests watched the scene inquisitively, full of curiosity and confusion. On the other hand, Kaeran, who was watching Fade's movements, had a quick change of expression on his face. His body quietly moved backwards, as if he wanted to escape.

Fade examined the two carefully. A few minutes later, Fade suddenly widened his eyes and turned his head to look in Kaeran's direction, shouting angrily, "Kaeran, you asked for it!"

The thunderous roar caused everyone to tremble in fear and shock. At the same time, their faces were filled with astonishment.

At that time, Kaeran, who had quietly moved to the door of the hall, suddenly jumped like a frightened rabbit, gathering all his strength to escape.

"You want to escape?" Fade snorted. Without moving his feet, he stretched out his right arm and clawed through the air towards the direction of the exit.

In an instant, the air burst with a rumbling sound.

Kaeran felt a big, invisible hand appear behind him, which grabbed him and flung him back into the hall with great strength.

With a bang, Kaeran was pulled and thrown back in. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his eyes were filled with horror.

Fade stepped forward and lifted Kaeran up with his left hand. He then held Kaeran's wrist with his right hand and felt his pulse.

Then, Fade's face darkened. His expression turned frigid and he shouted, "It's you."

"You have concealed your identity for three years, and you have not taught Jasmine anything about martial arts. You're waiting for the moment when she matures, aren't you?" Fade said sternly. Upon hearing this, Kaeran's face turned pale with fear and the sweat on his face started to drip.
