Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
Chapter 102 - 102: Listening To His Explanation

Yet William spoke as calmly as he could, while gritting his teeth and enduring such insane pressure, as his veins popped up from face.

"Not grade three? Are you even doubting the assessment done by our patriarch?"

"Can I regain my freedom and get a chance to explain things to elder?" William knew he wouldn't be able to talk if this crazy elder kept pressuring him.

So first he had to free himself from this insane pressure, or else he'd not be able to speak another word.

"And?" The elder didn't show any change over his face as he simply placed both hands behind his back. Yet he slightly withdrew his pressure, allowing William to heave a sigh of relief momentarily.

"If I'm wrong, kill me on the spot. If I'm right, not only will you stop doubting me, but you'll also ask to help me in doing my business here."

William knew the little group he had was going to be barely enough to execute his plan. And it'd be better if he got more spirit masters to help.

If he could turn this sceptical elder to his side, then he'd secure more helping hands thanks to his support.

"Oh, you seem this confident about this!" The elder decided to listen to what William had to say. He recalled all the things he knew and heard about William.

This kid was acting out of logic so far, just reminding him of himself. And so, after a few moments of contemplating over it, he decided to give it a go.

What would he lose if he let the other party freely speak up his mind?

"Fine, tell me then what you want to say," the fourth elder removed the suffocating pressure over William entirely.

"Fourth elder… He just means well…" Berry wanted to help William here, but she got stopped by a gaze from both William and the fourth elder.

"Don't worry, I know he just wants to help the clan," the fourth elder paused, before turning to William, "you helped the clan already by saving the life of our little rose. So thanks for that, and let's hear what you have to say."

Berry smiled while looking at William. She distanced herself in recent years even from the elders and top shots in the clan. But after she got cured, she got to feel how deeply worried and sincerely caring for her.

She stole a glance at William, and all she could see was a strong and tall mountain, a man who with a simple meeting flipped her world upside down.

The fourth elder just waited for William to speak up. The latter was looking at the fourth elder without any shred of fear or hesitation.

Against what everyone expected to see, William simply leant to the side, grabbed a thin piece of wood laying on the ground nearby and used it as a stick.

Without saying a single word, he started drawing something on the ground.

It was a rough drawing of a big semicircular shaped space. And once he was done with this circle, he started to speak without stopping his childish drawing of more shapes.

"This is considered the area surrounding the clan's place to the north," he spoke while drawing a small circle at the bottom of the crescentic shaped line he drew before.

Comparing the two together, one had to notice how the difference in size was between the two.

"If I'm correct, then your clan is going to use the monster penetration formation to fend off this monster tide, right?" William drew several vertical lines coming out from the circle he drew before. And these lines headed towards the direction of the crescentic line.

Yet they all stopped after crossing almost one fifth of the distance towards the line.

"You… How do you know about this formation?!" The surprise was apparent in the voice of the fourth elder, "yet it's not enough to prove anything."

"I'm not done speaking yet," William didn't even bother to raise his head to speak with the fourth elder. Instead, he drew a few small circles which got penetrated by the lines.

"This formation is really good, enough to fend off any monster outbreak below grade two. So, dealing with a monster outbreak of grade three is going to work, right?"

"That's what logic says, not your insane claims, humph!"

"Then let me ask elder then… This formation works by driving out the spirit power of those using it to form gigantic spears made out of energy. These spears are quite sharp and strong, enough to keep killing monsters as long as the spirit power continues to run from the spirit masters' bodies, right?"

"Correct," this time the fourth elder didn't express his surprise for such a lad to know such a complicated thing in such great detail.

He found a simple answer for all this, William's imaginary master. For a kid like William, it was an impossible feat to know such knowledge. But for his master, it would be like a childish play.

In the fourth elder's eyes, William was fortunate enough to witness his master speak about such a formation before, and even saw her teach others how to use it.

"To sense the approaching monsters from far, the clan must have established sensing formations around the clan," William didn't return back to the matter of that offensive formation, instead he drew a larger circle that ended up where the offensive formation lines ended as well.

"This…"

"You don't need to confirm my words, I know it's one of the clan's deepest secrets. I'm just stating facts," William shrugged, "but that also means that the sensory abilities of the clan only stopped here, right?"

"Hypothetically speaking, it's correct," the fourth elder wouldn't dare to commit such a newbie mistake and just gave such an indirect answer.

"Then if I told you this monster tide is just a preparatory phase, and something much scarier lies far beyond, will you believe me?"

"This…" the look over the fourth elder's face was filled with doubt.
