The Exalted Warrior novel Chapter 2005

“He must be in the first stage,” answered Fane just as the two on the battle platform were getting into the heat of the fight.

Fane’s reply caused Noel, who was facing the battle platform, to turn around and look him straight in the eyes with an expression that left no room for doubt that he was crazy.

“What is this first stage thing you’re talking about? Don’t tell me you don’t know that we don’t use first or second or third to ascertain the level of a martial art skill or technique?”

The corners of Fane’s lips twitched. It was only natural he did not know how the rules in this part of the world worked, after all, the soul fragment he had obtained was not someone from the Hestia Continent.

Looking at Fane’s expression, Noel had already gotten his answer. “I’m beginning to suspect that you have been living under a rock all this while. How could you not know all these?” said Noel with an air of resignation.

Fane coughed gently while trying to think how to answer Noel. “Yes, you’re right. I’ve been living under a rock all this while. I hope you don’t mind me asking all these. They say anyone could be your teacher and you just so happen to be mine right now.”
