1319: Chapter 1318: Betrothal 1319: Chapter 1318: Betrothal Yusuf Zuck was led by Walker Berger to take a tour around the Imperial Academy and then entered the legendary Seed System; this place within the Imperial Academy was an independent space, a miniature cosmos where the flow of ti was a hundred tis faster than the outside world, and the concentration of Divine Spiritual Energy was a thousand tis richer.
In this miniature cosmos, one hundred years of cultivation would only amount to a single year passing outside, thus only the most exceptionally talented mbers of the Berger family could enter the Seed System.
Of course, not only mbers of the Berger family were in the Seed System but also individuals from allied clans, such as the Brown Family, Escober Family, Petty Family, skill Family, etc.
These people were loyal vassals of the Bergers, hence the exceptionally talented among their clans could also co here to train.
Additionally, personally ntored disciples of so influential figures could enter as well.
As Walker Berger led Yusuf Zuck into the miniature cosmos of the Seed System, countless gazes instantly swept towards Yusuf Zuck.
There were roughly a hundred people who seed to be assembling and lining up at the entrance of the miniature cosmos, as if they were there to welco Yusuf Zuck!
“Eh?
Micah, what’s with the lineup?
Are you welcoming a new mber?” Walker Berger chuckled and looked toward a youth who was standing at the front of the group.
This youth was none other than the legendary Micah Berger, leader of the Seed System, and the most outstanding figure among the younger generation of the Berger family—he was also the legitimate son of Gael Berger!
Indeed, Micah Berger was Gael’s son and Jordan Berger’s direct grandson, his lineage being the purest of the pure within the Berger family.
Whether it was status or personal talent, both could be considered monstrously exceptional.
“Father, Uncle Seven,” Micah Berger saluted Gael and Walker and then glanced at Yusuf Zuck, his mouth curving into a smile: “I presu this must be Gael Berger?
What should I call you?”
“In public you call Master Uncle, but since you’ll be training and studying together, it’s better to treat each other as equals.
How you address each other doesn’t matter!” Gael set the tone.
In the Berger family, rank mattered, but so did cultivation level.
A high rank might command superficial respects, but if your cultivation was weak, nobody would really look up to you.
In the entire Heavenly Realm, might makes right, and strength determines rank.
How could the Berger family be one of The Eight Great Families if they didn’t have strong fists or powerful strength?
“That’s fine, young master uncle, my na is Micah Berger—I’m temporarily serving as the leader of the Seed System in the miniature cosmos.
You’re about to join the Seed System to start your training, so from the mont you enter, you won’t be a ‘master uncle’ but just an ordinary mber of the Seed System, living and training here, and you’ll follow my lead.
Our training in the Seed System is rigorous.
I hope you won’t rely on your status to oppress others.
Here, nobody cares about your status—only strength matters.
So, how about it?
Will you join now, or after the grand ceremony of apprenticeship in three days’ ti?” Micah Berger, clearly a figure of authority, laid it all out upfront—the unspoken ssage was: if he offended Yusuf in later life or studies, Yusuf would have to deal with it, because he was the boss!
“What are you all getting ready for?” Walker Berger suddenly interjected.
Micah Berger replied, “Oh, we’re heading to the Broken Temple to hunt tigers.
We’ve heard that recently two black tigers have been seen roaming around the Broken Temple, and other clans’ mbers are already on their way.
Naturally, we can’t fall behind!”
“What?
Two black tigers?
Are you serious?” Walker Berger’s eyes lit up upon hearing about the two black tigers.
The so-called black tigers were Sky Demon Black Tigers, the sa species as the mount of the notorious bandit of the Misty Mountains, but Sky Demon Black Tigers were extrely rare, a once-in-ten-thousand-year occurrence.
There were only two in the entire Heavenly Realm—one with the Goodman Family and one under the bandit of the Misty Mountains.
Black tigers were considered valuable treasures, and riding one as a mount added to one’s prestige.
Moreover, with the right support of precious materials, a black tiger could evolve to a God Sovereign Level.
Imagine the prestige of possessing a black tiger of God Sovereign Level?
“Uncle Seven, please do not get involved.
Those heading there are Seed Disciples from the Imperial Colleges of The Eight Great Families.
As a Superior Divine Emperor, if you go, what’s left for us to do?”
“Aren’t you also a Divine Emperor?” retorted Walker Berger, rolling his eyes.
“But I’m only at the initial level, incomparable to your superior level!”
“Fine, fine, I won’t insist any longer, okay?
However, it looks like Gael won’t be able to make it either, because in three days your grandfather is holding the ceremony to accept new disciples!”
“Oh…” Micah Berger uttered, glancing at Yusuf Zuck as well, and with a smile asked, “What about you?
Have any thoughts?”
“I’d like to go.” At this mont, Yusuf Zuck had already looked over all the students in the Imperial College Seed Departnt, but to his surprise, he did not see Ember Vance!
Indeed, in Gael Berger’s mories, Ember Vance belonged to the Imperial College Seed Departnt, but among the people here, there was no one-ard person, nor was there any trace of Ember!
“Alright then, if you want to go, we can wait for you outside the Broken Temple for three days and then head there together!”
“No need to wait for him for three days, waiting for six hours will suffice!” Suddenly, a voice descended from the skies—it was the Clan Leader Jordan Berger’s voice.
“Gael, co to the Inheritance Hall right now.
I will take you as my disciple ahead of ti.”
“Yes!” Yusuf Zuck bowed to Micah Berg and then turned to leave.
Walker Berger followed suit, wondering why the ceremony was moved from three days later to now?
…
A short while later, they arrived at the Inheritance Hall, and besides Jordan Berger, there were three other white-haired elders with similar auras to him.
Alicia Dickson was also seated there, along with a group of Divine Emperors and God Sovereigns.
All together, there were easily more than thirty people!
“Father, why does your energy seem so unstable?” Walker Berger exclaid in shock as he entered the Inheritance Hall.
Jordan Berger waved his hand: “I’ve been at a critical point in my cultivation recently.
If it weren’t for sensing the breath of big brother Tian Yi, I wouldn’t have left seclusion today.
Hence, after the apprentice ceremony, I must go back into seclusion imdiately!”
“By the way, Gael, when will you Cross the Tribulation?” Jordan Berger asked again.
“Wait a little longer.
Although I can undergo it now, I feel that the opportune mont has not arrived yet, so I’ve been suppressing it.”
“That’s fine.
First, et your three elder brothers.
The other three elder brothers are not here to return; when they do, you need to offer them a cup of tea.”
“Hello, Gael.
My na is Cal Petty, and I am your eldest disciple brother!” The eldest disciple brother also exuded a powerful presence, clearly at the God Sovereign Level.
“I’m your third disciple brother, my na is Han Escobar!”
“I’m your sixth disciple brother, my na is Stan Harmon.”
“Greetings to all three disciple brothers,” Yusuf Zuck imdiately gave his salutations!
“Alright, the apprentice ceremony begins!” With an order from Jordan Berger, a master of ceremonies stepped forward and began to pronounce words of respect to the heaven and earth.
Then he led everyone to pay homage to the ancestors, recite the codes of conduct, and the clan rules, and so on.
Finally, Yusuf Zuck bowed to Jordan Berger and the three disciple brothers, and the na Gael Berger was also recorded in the clan genealogy and the entrance log.
The ceremony went on for six hours, and after six hours, Jordan Berger took a deep breath and looked at Yusuf Zuck, saying, “Gael, study well at the Imperial Academy.
I will go back to my seclusion and cultivation.
Once I erge, I will personally guide you.” While speaking, Jordan Berger paused for a mont and then smiled, “I was just discussing with Alicia that you have not yet married and had children, hence your mother and I have arranged a marriage for you.
Well, that’s all, I’m leaving now!” As soon as Jordan Berger finished speaking, he left through the air, leaving Yusuf Zuck sowhat bewildered—how did he suddenly get betrothed?
