Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"Sir headmaster, you sent for me?" and just as William was thinking about the real intentions of the headmaster from extending such an invitation, he saw the same spirit master who guided him here before.

It was Tang!

"Take William and these two girls and let them stay at the northern residential house," the headmaster casually said.

William noticed that the face of Tang slightly changed for a brief second before bowing as he said:

"I will," he then motioned his eyes for William and the two girls to follow him before turning around and moving away.

William bowed to the headmaster and the other two girls followed his suit before the three left the hall and followed Tang's steps outside.

"You know you are able to squeeze everything we wanted from him when he goes to your place," and after a few minutes after William and others' departure, the headmaster suddenly spoke.

He was all alone and yet he spoke in a certain direction. The moment he said these words, another figure suddenly appeared from the same direction the headmaster was looking at.

He was an old man. If William was here, he'd instantly see the similarities between him and Berry.

He was Berry's grandfather, Long clan's fearsome patriarch, Kong!

What William did not know was that when he was chatting with the headmaster, the headmaster was speaking using spiritual telepathy with Kong.

The two agreed on sending William towards the Long clan's base where Kong would squeeze everything out of him.

But when William asked for a period of rest, Kong proposed for the headmaster to let him stay in this huge mansion.

The headmaster didn't agree at first, but when Kong spoke to him about how beneficial this was going to be, he decided to follow such a plan.

"This kid gives me the vibe of an old fox," Kong said in a tone that was void of any jokes, "he won't spill out his beans in such an easy way as you expect."

"I find it hard to believe for anyone to keep any secret in front of you," the headmaster bitterly smiled.

"I'm telling you, he is different," Kong gazed towards the direction where William vanished into, "and it's better to let him show us what he can do before trying out to know more."

"As if he is going to do anything," the headmaster snorted in objection.

"He is," but Kong's eyes remained quite serious, and he slowly nodded to his old friend, "or else this old fox wouldn't have asked for a few days before leaving for my place."

The headmaster didn't get what was in Kong's mind. The former felt William was just a simple kid who got lucky to meet up with a good master. But the latter felt different about him. To Kong, William gave him the same vibe he felt when dealing with equal in standard and strength masters.

He felt how unfathomable William was, and that feeling made him quite curious about uncovering William's secrets.

"You said you tracked him for many days," the headmaster looked deeply at Kong after a minute or pause, "didn't you discover anything at all about him?"

"I can tell you this… No matter what he did, I found myself oblivious to his way of fighting."

"This…" this time the headmaster was taken aback. If such words came out from someone else, then he wouldn't feel the same.

But who was Kong? He was one of the strongest in the entire kingdom. And in the entire world, he was one of the top hundred.

"Not only that," and when the headmaster thought Kong was going to stop giving him more shocks, the latter added, "he also has vast fighting experience that never suited his age nor his position nor power. No matter what situation he found himself in, he always pulled the right method to overcome his enemies and win."

"Is it thanks to his master?" the headmaster couldn't help but ask.

"I didn't get to see his proclaimed master," Kong slowly said, "I took a few days to catch up with him. I already spoke with Ellina from the Forging department and aligned the time when he left the academy."

"And? What did you get?"

"If that master is present, then she'd be not that far from here, or he never had the chance to meet up with her. But if I had such spirit master, then I wouldn't rest for a second before going to meet up with her"

The headmaster kept looking at Kong in silence. And the latter didn't speak for a long minute before adding in a slow and heavy tone that suited the current atmosphere, "if she is alive, then she'll be his master."

"No way!" the headmaster knew exactly whom Kong was speaking about, "we both saw her body turning into shreds from that deadly explosion."

"We didn't see her body suffer from such an explosion," Kong slowly said, "we only assumed her death back then."

"No one can survive such a deadly explosion! Not even you and I combined at our current level of power."

"We still didn't see her body take that hit or find any remains of her," Kong persisted, "and there is no other candidate to be this mysterious master but her."

"Then why didn't she come back? Why did she stay out there in the forest?"

"This… I can't explain until we meet up with her," Kong returned again to gaze at the direction where William vanished, "and that's why we need to deal with this kid more cautiously."

"Tsk!" The headmaster didn't like the way of thinking of his best friend. But he also couldn't refute what Kong said.

That old accident the two were speaking about in such riddles was still leaving behind heavy fingerprints over their hearts, spirits, and minds.

As for William, he wasn't aware of any of this.

He'd never expect the half lie he told would revive such old hopes for two of the strongest spirit masters in the entire kingdom.
