Elder Grant’s expression went blank for a moment, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
He had assessed many bones, but the bones of Keera had made a deep impression on him.”
Her joints were weak and powerless, her bones soft, indeed not the right material for practicing martial arts. Even as she grew older year by year, there was no
improvement.
Therefore, Keera’s parents had pleaded with him several times, but he had never relented.
With such bones, even if one tried hard, they were
destined to have no connection with martial arts; perhaps she could learn something like dance instead.
Even growing up, it was impossible for a change to
Occur.
But this time, after feeling her bones again, he was suddenly baffled by the bones of the person before
him.
Were these the same soft and powerless bones of

Keera?
No…
The person before him had very hard bones, yet the joints were very supple; the tendons and bones felt as if they were exceptionally good!
It was as if she was a martial arts expert who had practiced for many years!!
Unable to help himself, Elder Grant looked at Keira again and then asked, “How long do you practice martial arts each day?”
Keira cast her eyes down. “Two hours.”
Elder Grant immediately frowned.
How could this be possible!
Two hours a day, even if one started exercising in the womb, wouldn’t result in such tendons and bones.
He furrowed his brow, looking carefully at Keira again as if trying to see why such a significant change had
occurred.
But after looking for a long while, he couldn’t spot anything underhanded.

He could only continue to feel Keira’s other arm, and the sensation upon touching was still very hard!
He couldn’t help but turn to James. “Come here.”
James walked over to his side.
Elder Grant began to feel his bones.
James felt ticklish and was somewhat baffled; he
couldn’t help but back away. “Elder Grant, what are you doing?”
But Elder Grant frowned.
He suddenly started to doubt his own bone assessment skills!
Indeed, the bones of an adult couldn’t be compared with those of children, and the standards of judgment were different, but the tendons and bones of a martial artist were certainly not the same as those of an ordinary person.
Why did he feel that Keera’s tendons and bones were
better than James’s?
That was absolutely unreasonable!
James was among the best of his generation in the
214
387 Chapter 380
Freeman Sect, second only to the senior sister; he was considered top-notch, and the senior sister wast exceptional.
Keera was so weak as a child, so how could she possibly be stronger than James?
As Elder Grant was puzzled, James couldn’t help but suppress a laugh. “Elder Grant, are you done? There are others in line waiting behind!”
“Right.”
Elder Grant withdrew his hand and looked at Keira.
James then asked, “How are Keera’s tendons and bones?”
Elder Grant hesitated for a moment and then, a long pause, chose a safer word. “They’re not bad have indeed been practicing martial arts diligently these years. How about this, why don’t you particip in the Outer Sect’s martial arts competition?”
Keira didn’t understand how formidable her martial arts skills were.
It was just that after learning martial arts from her master, she seemed to have never lost in one-on-one
387 Chapter 386
fights.
Hearing this, she was slightly startled. “The Outer Sect martial arts competition?”
“Yes,” Elder Grant stroked his beard. “Outer Sect Disciples do have the opportunity to become Inner Sect Disciples, and that is through the martial arts tournament. If you can place in the top three, you’ll have the chance to enter the Inner Sect. At that time, the Sect Leader and the Elders will select high-quality martial talents from among you and teach them properly. With your aptitude, you should participate!”
Elder Grant thought this was the safest approach!
Since the bone assessment was inconclusive, why give it a try?
In the martial arts tournament, if she won, then the Freeman Sect wouldn’t miss out on a good seedling like you; if she lost, then it just meant she wasn’t up to snuff, and indeed he was wrong in his initial
assessment!
Keira also felt his reasoning made sense, so she nodded and headed out.
Tames glanced at Elder Grant saw the flicker in his

eyes, and that he dared not meet his own gaze, and immediately misconstrued the meaning of Elder Grant’s words.
Elder Grant must have suggested this method because Keera had poor bone structure, thus aiming to discourage her!
So, he followed Keira out and immediately asked, “Are you sure you want to participate in the martial arts tournament?”
Keira nodded. “Yes, where do I sign up?”
“There’s no need to sign up. You’re quite in luck as the first match is tomorrow. You just have to show up d participate. Only those who can withstand three moves from my third junior brother are qualified t enter the competition.”
Keira understood that there was a preliminary
selection.
That made sense. With so many Outer Sect Disciples in the Freeman Sect, if everyone participated, wouldn’t the competition procedures become too complicated?
Keira nodded, thought for a moment, and then walked
out

James followed her and said, “Are you sure you want to participate? If you are certain, then I’ll be the one conducting the selection tomorrow.”
As the third junior brother’s status was lower than his, it seemed logical that he should be the one doing it, but James, acting like a big shot, felt that it was beneath him to do such a task.
But if his third aunt wanted to participate, then he should at least help her out, right? At the very least, he should help her enter the registration phase.
Keira then said. “Don’t help me, I’ll come back
tomorrow.”
James nodded, followed her, and escorted her o
the Freeman Sect.
After bidding her farewell at the gate, James watch Keira get into a car that had been parked near the Freeman Sect.
James glanced at it and came to a halt.
What did he see?!
He actually saw a gigolo exit the driver’s side and affectionately wrap his arms around Keera’s waist,
