The dragon let out a howl of fury, soaring around the air before wing at the ck panther''s head. It snapped off the panther''s shoulders with one firm twist, and the dragon flicked its tail sharply to crumble the panther''s body into dust.


    A powerful explosion of rampant spiritual energy burst through the air at once. The ck panther was the center of the formation. Now that it was in, the spiritual energy shot out as the eight members of the ck Panthers were forced out of their invisible states and suffered severe bacsh.


    Wilbur stared down at the eight members coldly. "It''s your turn now."


    Just then, a ray of golden light shot out of the four cauldrons onto the ground, forming the shape of a person. A white-haired elder appeared in front of the eight ck Panthers, who knelt in front of him. "At your service, Master."


    The senior looked at Wilbur calmly. "Please let them go on my ount, young man."


    "Who are you?"


    Wilbur was nothing but confused as to who this man who had just shot out of the four Dragon Cauldrons was, but recognition quickly dawned on him as he widened his eyes in shock. "Are you...? ..?"


    "That''s right, buddy. I''m Fremont Skye. These are my servants. I cannot let the Nine Dragon Cauldrons fall into the hands of others, or the secret of the dragon n will be exposed, which will bring a terrible storm to the, bringing great tragedy to us all. In order to find the chosen one while also stopping any evil cultivators from getting their hands on the cauldrons, I entrusted the eight of them as protectors. You''re the first person who''s had the chance to meet me in decades. Congrattions on passing my test."


    "Oh, so you''re Senior Fremont Skye."


    Wilbur''s dragon faded as hended on the ground on one knee. "Wilbur Penn, at your service, Senior."


    Fremont nodded. "Wilbur Penn, I''m asking you this now. Will you let the eight of them go?"


    "I will."


    "Very well. It seems like you do have some talent in you, and you are indeed the fated chosen one. I can sense the aura of the dragon n from your body. However, I''m going to set some rules with you if you want to get the Nine Dragon Cauldrons."


    "Of course, Senior."


    "Firstly, you must let the eight of them go and never look for them to take revenge, ever. Secondly, you may only use the first dragon cauldron starting from now until you find all nine Dragon Cauldrons. Third of all, you must not threaten, cheat, or kill your way into getting the cauldrons. They must be given to you willingly."


    "Are you able to abide by these conditions?"


    "I am willing to abide by these conditions."


    "Very well. Off you go to search for the Nine Dragon Cauldrons, then. I''ll see you again when you collect them all."
