Chapter 5915
The Almighty Dragon General
Those words were like a knife to Truett's heart.
Truett dropped to his knees with a devastated look on his face.
âDad, I was defeated. Although I had powers of the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rankâs Seventh Tribulation, I
still lost to a man on the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rankâs First Tribulation.â
Truett cried dejectedly, âI am no longer the peerless fighter or the son that you take pride in!â
There was a loud sound as Yegor threw a slap across Truett's face.
Truett's eyes were bright with unshed tears as he looked up at Yegor. âI'm a shame to the Skynet
group!â
Yegor slapped Truett in the face again, and he even gave him a heavy kick on the stomach.
âYou should punish me, Dad.â Truett pushed himself up and continued kneeling. âI've lost
everything. I might as well just die.â
"If those are your honest feelings, I can always do you a favor and exterminate you. I'll just assume
that I've never had a son,â Yegor said in a frigid tone.
Truett lifted his gaze. âDad...â
âDonât call me that.â Yegor furrowed his brows. âMy son is not a coward like you.â
He grabbed Truett by the collar and pulled him up.
"A peerless fighter? The son that I take pride in?" Yegor repeated those words. âIsn't that just an
illusion you've persuaded yourself to believe in?
âWhen it comes to mastering the Genesis Power, no one would dare claim that they are matchless
or unbeatable. Even Franciscus, who had made a name for himself across the various Genesis
Worlds, would not say something like that.â
Truett was momentarily stunned as he listened to his father's words.
âDo you know why you've failed?â Yegor asked, âIt's because of that blind confidence and arrogance
of yours!
âYou think you're unbeatable just because you've defeated a couple of cultivators?â
Yegor pulled Truett closer and stared into his eyes. âEven I have lost countless battles before
reaching where I am today. As long as you still have a breath left in you, you have a chance to get
back up and redeem yourself someday.
âI've learned a lot from those failed experiences. However, as long as you believe in yourself and
remain steadfast, you will be able to achieve your dreams and goals eventually.â
Then, Yegor flung him away forcefully. Truett crashed into the wall and dropped onto the floor.
He coughed up some blood. Still, Truett climbed to his feet and straightened himself.
âDad, do you think that I'm such a fickle person? I'm not afraid of losing, nor do I think that I'm
completely unbeatable. However, it is different this time, and I still find it hard to come to terms
with my loss.â
Yegor snorted. âIt is what it is, and you have to learn how to deal with your losses. We live in a world
where many talented and skilled cultivators are produced from time to time. You should learn from
each of your losses and use that to better yourself.â
âDespite the huge difference between our cultivation ranks, I couldn't fight back even once!â Truett
said in a raised voice, âI was completely overpowered!â
Yegor's eyes widened in surprise.
Technically speaking, even though Truett had suppressed ninety percent of his powers, he would still
be able to defend himself from Jamesâ attacks. Truett's cultivation rank was six ranks higher than
Jamesâ after all.
Then, Yegor recalled Jamesâ techniques like the Golden Body and the Marciais Combat Form.
His anger subsided a little. Yegor sat in the chair Truett was sitting on earlier. âCome here and tell
me what happened that day.â
Truett let out a small sigh. He walked over to Yegor's side and knelt again. Then, Truett shared the
details of the battle between him and James.
After a while, Yegor had a look of astonishment on his face. âThat means he can defeat any
cultivators below the Yuraeceon Xaelm Rankâs Eighth Tribulation by relying on the Golden Body and
Marciais Combat Form?â
âI think so.â Truett nodded. âFrom what I've seen, he can probably defeat Yuraeceon Xaelm Rankâs
Eighth Tribulation cultivators too.â
Yegor picked up a cup from the table and muttered in a low voice, âAfter all this time, are we about
to witness the rise of another genius cultivator like Franciscus Yuelan?â
