The Golden Spirit Court Head, Nie Bai, said indifferently. Han Zhao only had a chance of becoming a high-grade alchemist, and he was not a high-grade alchemist already.
He had only cultivated for 60 years and was already at the Perfected Seven Fiend Realm. Even without the help of external forces, he had a 30% chance of attaining a Pseudo Divine Power.
“Senior Brother Nie, you don’t have to worry about that. Back then, you looked down on Han Zhao the most. Don’t tell me you regret it now and want to s.n.a.t.c.h it from me?” Gao Sheng looked unhappy.
Although he was the weakest among the Court Heads of the Five Courts, he had a good brother, Gao Qiang, who was the Hall Master of the Moon Hall. Therefore, his actual status was not inferior to Nie Bai.
“It’s all up to him. This Court Head won’t interfere.” Nie Bai t s expression was indifferent.
“Hmph!” Gao Sheng snorted.
“We’re all fellow sect brothers and sisters. There’s no need to ruin the harmony over a disciple.” Chen Tian acted as a peacemaker and mediated.
“Han Zhao is greedy and lecherous. There are many female disciples in my Water Spirit Academy. If I use this as a bargaining chip…” Qin Yuan thought to herself. She did not care about Han Zhao’s character when it concerned whether she could cultivate a Pseudo Divine Power in the future. In any case, if Han Zhao could become a high-grade alchemist, those female disciples would have a huge advantage if they followed her.
Han Zhao’s matter was just an interlude. The five of them began to discuss serious matters.
After discussing the next arrangements, Gao Sheng left in a hurry. It was obvious that he was going to take action.
Qin Yuan and Li Xiuqi followed closely behind, leaving only Nie Bai and Chen Tian in the hall.
“Senior Brother Nie, if you invite him, I believe Han Zhao will definitely be willing to join the Golden Spirit Court. Otherwise, this benefit will be given to their Junior Brother Gao and the others…” Chen Tian advised. He had always had a good relationship with Nie Bai, so he did not have many scruples when speaking.
“No need.” Nie Bai interrupted. “The future is uncertain. Middle-grade alchemists are just useless to us. It’s not so easy to become a high-grade alchemist.’
“Alright. Then I’ll get the Zhu family’s kid to visit. That’s fine too…”
“Whatever,” Nie Bai said lightly and turned to walk out of the hall.
That night, Zhu Zizheng sent someone to the Han family’s county to deliver a visitation card and explain the situation.
The words in the visitation card seemed polite, but there was a sense of superiority.
Han Zhao pinched it gently and the visiting card turned to dust.
“Master, may I be so bold as to speak?” Zhu Yongning stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
“Speak.” Han Zhao nodded.
“The Zhu family is not weak and is very powerful in the t.i.tan Merchant
Alliance. Zhu Zizheng is also the nephew of the Golden Spirit Court Head.
When Master doesn’t want to expose your true strength, you can pretend to be polite,” Zhu Yongning said seriously.
“It’s indeed a good idea. However, 1 want to modify it a little.” Han Zhao smiled.
With that, he walked out of the courtyard with his hands behind his back.
He headed straight for Heaven Stairway Mountain.
Standing at the foot of the mountain gate, he looked up at the huge mountain in front of him with a calm expression.
“If it were in the past, 1 would have feigned civility with them. I can’t be bothered to spend this effort now.”
On Dark North Island, Vajra had pretended to be the Officiator and completely controlled the Beast Soul Division. Moreover, he had agreed with the Heavenly Wings Division that the next battle would be in half a year.
Han Zhao didn’t want to waste too much time in the Yin Yang Hall.
Be it the Wind Qilin, Water Flood Dragon and Three Spirit Perfected Lord’s cave abode in the endless sea. there were still many places for him to go.
Han Zhao went to the outer courtyard hall at the foot of the mountain and found the outer courtyard Court Head, Han Zhenyuan, to explain his situation.
“What?! You’re not joking?” Han Zhenyuan was shocked when he learned that Han Zhao had cultivated the Life Nurturing Technique to the Third Level.
“It’s absolutely true. Why would I joke with the Court Head?” Han Zhao said seriously.
“This matter is very important. I have to confirm it.” Han Zhenyuan was surprised and delighted because if this matter was true, as the person who reported it, he had contributed.
“Please.” Han Zhao extended his hand.
Han Zhenyuan grabbed Han Zhao’s wrist and sent his true qi into his body.
A moment later, Han Zhenyuan looked at Han Zhao in shock,
“Disciple-Nephew Han, you really only used five months to cultivate the Life
Nurturing Technique to the Third Level?! Moreover, you’ve already perfected it!”
“l don’t know why, but I feel that this cultivation technique seems to be very suitable for me. I basically broke through naturally during the cultivation process.” Han Zhao was a little puzzled.
“Of course, I’ve also taken a lot of Blood Qi Pills to a.s.sist in my cultivation.”
“Martial Nephew Han, stay here for now. I’ll inform Hall Master Zhen Yang now,” Han Zhenyuan said excitedly.
“Yes.” Han Zhao cupped his fists and bowed.
In less than two hours, Han Zhenyuan returned to the outer courtyard hall. However, he stood at the door and bowed, not entering.
At the same time, two old men in purple Daoist robes who looked 70 to 80% similar entered the hall.
The people who came were not the Hall Master of the True Yang Hall, Qin Qing, but the two Supreme Elders at the Pseudo Divine Power Realm, Zhao
Wuji and Zhao Wuxiu.
The next day.
A piece of unexpected news spread throughout the entire Yin Yang Hall and swept through the entire Yin and Yang Island like a whirlwind.
Han Zhao had become a legacy disciple!
In half a month, it would be the Yin Yang Hall’s sect compet.i.tion.
The outer courtyard disciples wanted to use this opportunity to stand out. If they were ranked at the front and performed outstandingly, they would have a chance to be chosen by the Five Elements Academy and enter the inner courtyard.
As for the inner courtyard disciples, they had been preparing for a long time and wanted to fight for the position of the ten legacy disciples.
After Lu Yingxuan entered the Heavenly Saint Grotto-Heaven, there was an empty spot among the ten legacy disciples.
Instead of challenging those powerful legacy disciples, their chances of winning were higher if they fought for this spot.
However, on the eve of the sect compet.i.tion, someone actually directly advanced to become the legacy disciple,
If he wanted to become a legacy disciple, he had to become a Saint before the age of 30 and cultivate to the Three Fiend Realm before the age of 35.
Han Zhao was only a 28-year-old Two Qi Grandmaster.
Soon, Han Zhao’s past deeds were exposed.
At the age of 25, he suppressed the disciples of the aristocratic family and obtained first place in the East Victory Continent’s Central Prefecture Trial. It was indeed more dazzling, but he could only say that he was very strong at the Grandmaster Realm.
Even if he had already cultivated to the One Fiend Realm before his meridians were damaged and he dissipated his cultivation to re-cultivate, he was only a Two Qi Grandmaster now.
What was most unacceptable to everyone was that the inner sect disciples were not allowed to challenge Han Zhao in this sect compet.i.tion. They had to wait two years.
There were many discussions in the sect, and many people were unconvinced.
Even the two Hall Masters of True Yang Hall and Great Yin Hall did not have such privileges.
However, when the internal news was released, everyone fell silent.
Han Zhao’s spot as a legacy disciple was personally chosen by the two Supreme Elders.
Whether a legacy disciple could enter the grotto-heaven to cultivate or not, other than fighting, the approval of the two Supreme Elders was also required.
This time, the other nine legacy disciples could not sit still anymore.
For a moment, those who wanted to befriend Han Zhao broke through the threshold.
However, after Han Zhao became a legacy disciple, he did not stay in the legacy hall. Instead, he brought him into the Spirit Cave at the top of the
Heaven Stairway Mountain and was personally guided by the Supreme Elder. Unable to see Han Zhao, everyone rushed into Heaven Ascension City to visit
Zhao Yuantu and Su Yun..
