The God of Cataka

"Whoaaaa…!" Shen Zhu exclaimed in excitement after his teacher's mount started flying. "Teacher! Your fellow monsters are so mesmerizing," he said cheerfully. "It can fly this high!"
Bao Yu only smiled faintly and shook her head. He stood in front with both hands folded behind his body, while Shen Zhu and Tiao sat behind him.
Tiao also only smiled faintly in response.
"Is my fellow monster like this too?" Shen Zhu wondered with a happy and curious expression of a little child.
Bao Yu suddenly bowed with a grim expression. Then turned to face Shen Zhu. "Shen Zhu," he said in a raucous voice. "I'm really sorry I never told you this."
Shen Zhu blinked and looked up at his teacher.
Bao Yu sighed heavily. "I admit your progress was beyond estimation, but.." he hung up his sentence and was stunned for a moment.
Shen Zhu exchanged looks with Tiao.
"You're still very young. There has never been a knight who got a mount under the age of twenty," explained Bao Yu with a grim expression.
Shen Zhu was instantly speechless.
"Uncle, although there has never been a knight who gained a mount under the age of twenty, but also never had a knight who reached the galactic realm under the age of twenty," Tiao.
"True," Bao Yu said as she forced a smile. "That's why I'm willing to bet. If you don't find a suitable monster, don't push yourself!" He advises.
"Teacher don't worry!" Shen Zhu reassured his teacher. "I won't let you down!" his determination.
A short while later, they had all already landed at the gate of the Blood Covenant Land.
The gate at first glance looks like an ordinary stone gate. It is located at the top of a stone step in the middle of the forest without a guardrail on the left-right. It can be said that there is no point in passing through the gate because all places on the left-right are not fenced like the function of a gate.
But unfortunately the forest seen around the gate was not the actual Blood Covenant Land.
In order to reach the Blood Covenant Land, everyone had to pass through that gate.
It was a kind of teleportation gate. Whoever passes through that gate, will not go out in the visible forest behind him.
In short, once one entered that gate, they would disappear in ordinary eye sight.
To enter it, they also had to obtain permission first from the Holy Elders of the Promised Land Guards. And it's not like visiting someone's house where we just knock on the door and that person immediately lets in.
It is the presence of the spiritual mounts that will make him come to the gate. In other words, only guests with spiritual mounts were allowed to meet him.
The Sacred Elder of the Covenant Land Guard wore an all-white garment covered in a white veil that became a headscarf to cover half his face. His long white hair poked out from behind the veil that hung down on the left-right of his chest.
"We are from Baohu Sword Sect College, bringing disciples to look for mounts!" the five teachers simultaneously knelt down and crossed one arm in front of the chest with clenched fingers, saluting the soldiers.
Their students kneeled.
"Give me your permission!" ask that Holy Elder of the Promised Land Guards with a mysterious cold expression. His voice sounded like a gust of wind, but it was intimidating.
Bao Yu took out a scroll letter from behind her hanfunya chest and extended it towards the holy elder with both hands resting in front of his face.
The holy elder folded his hands back and read one by one the data of all the disciples. Then suddenly frowned. His eyeballs rolled towards Shen Zhu. "Galactic Knights as young as this?" his murmur was in a suspicious tone.
Everyone was still bowed in a position still on their knees.
"Knight of the Galactic Land, come here!" the Holy Elders Commanders the Promised Land Guards.
Shen Zhu bowed respectfully to the soldiers before finally getting up and approaching the holy elder.
The holy elder placed one of his palms on Shen Zhu's shoulder, and instantly the young man felt his shoulders being pressed by hundreds of tons of weight until his knees were bent.
"It turns out to be the true Knight of the Galactic Realm," the elder murmured as he rubbed his chin with his knuckle. He lowered his palm from Shen Zhu's shoulder. Then he turned towards Bao Yu.
Bao Yu bowed again with the respect of the soldiers.
The holy elder shook his head, then turned to Shen Zhu. "Young Man," he said. "Each knight only had a once in a lifetime chance to choose a monster in the Blood Covenant Land. After you enter the Blood Covenant Land, you will meet with a lot of trouble. Risking a valuable opportunity like this.. Have you thought about it well?"
"I'm ready to bear the risk, Holy Elder!" shen Zhu's. Then bow once more.
"All right!" The holy elder let out a short sigh. Then put one hand in front of his chest.
A golden-coloured glow gushed out from his palm along with a plate shaped like a double-edged dagger with ancient writings glowing in gold.
The holy elder touched Shen Zhu's forehead with his index tip.
A sign like a flaming golden-coloured ancient symbol was imprinted on Shen Zhu's forehead.
"A mark on your forehead is necessary to sign a pact with a monster. If there's a monster approaching you, you can communicate and stick this mark on his forehead." the holy elder told me. Then extended the plate in his other hand to Shen Zhu. "If in seven days you can't find a suitable monster, this plate will light up and send you out. Do you understand that?"
"I understand!" Shen Zhu replied confidently.
"Come in!" said the holy elder.
Shen Zhu turned towards Bao Yu and bowed with both hands linked in front of the face. "I'll be right back" he said determinedly.
Bao Yu responded with a short nod.
Shen Zhu nodded at his elder brothers, then turned around and rushed towards the gate. A moment later, he had already disappeared behind the gate.
The holy elder turned to the other disciples, "Which I told your friend earlier, have you heard it clearly?" tanyakanya.
"Already, Holy Elder!" The students answered in unison.
Then the holy elder did the same to all the disciples and the disciples hurried over to Shen Zhu.
"The least of them are very talented," said the saint elder to their teachers after the disciples had entered the gate. The old man folded his hands back. "But in the Knight Alliance, there had never been a knight who gained a mount under the age of twenty. It is impossible to get a monster. You as teachers, aren't you taking too much of a risk? Too rushed to succeed!"
Bao Yu and his fellow teachers just bowed down.
