Alden Martin appears to be a young man at first glance, but Peter Brown can still sense an air of decay about him.
He must have used some method to preserve his youthful appearance!
Upon seeing Alden Martin, Peter felt a hint of guilt. Without him, Alden would still have had a chance to enter the Cultivation Technique Space. Just as he was about to say something, he noticed Alden eyeing him with pride and heard a snort as he said, "So you're Peter Brown!"
Seeing his expression, Peter understood immediately; this guy hated him. This initial interaction was telling—his temperament really wasn't all that great, no wonder he couldn't advance his cultivation even with a Quasi Saint's backing.
"Indeed, I am Peter Brown."
"You should drop out. As long as you do, I'll just cripple your cultivation, but you'll still become a Divine Being."
Peter was shocked. He hadn't expected Alden's resentment to be so intense that he'd go straight for crippling him.
