Heidi smiled bitterly and whispered to Sofia, "He's from an upper-class first-tier sect known as the Highworld Sect. It's worth noting that they've been making so much progress that they're fast about to overtake the Horizon Sect."
She paused briefly before continuing, "That Terry guy emerged as a prodigy in the Highworld Sect within the past two years. He was able to reach such a high level of attainment even though he is only twenty-one this year. His arrogance stems from that. Of course, many others in their sect have much higher attainment, but all of them aren't here. After all, there's no point for them to be here since they won't be able to enter the sect either."
"I see! It's impressive that he could achieve that level of attainment. He should be proud of that," Sofia gasped. "Making a breakthrough to royal saint is child's play with his talent. Heck, he probably wouldn't need long to reach the level seven or level eight royal saint!"
Heidi nodded and added, "He has excellent combat skills to boot too. I heard he once made light work of a level one royal saint, so you can imagine how insanely strong he is."
At that moment, a female disciple beside Heidi said, "But your combat ability is outstanding too, and you're one of the prodigies within our sect. Do you think you can defeat him?"
Heidi pondered over that question for a moment and eventually shook her head. "I'm pretty confident in my abilities, and I think can probably hold my own against a level one royal saint in a fight. However, defeating an opponent of that level is a whole different ball game. The gap between a level nine saint and a level one royal saint is substantial even though it might seem small. Going over and beyond one's strength to defeat a level one royal saint is very difficult. I might be able to take on weaker level two royal saints if I was a level one royal saint, but it's near-impossible for a level nine saint to defeat a level one royal saint."
"If you're no match for him, then I don't think anyone else here can hold out against him either," the female disciple commented. She then turned to another one of her sect's prodigies and asked, "What about you, Kara? Would you have a chance of winning against Terry?"
