There was a lot of discussion about Xiao Chen in the outside world. As the first disciple to receive such an honor upon entering Tianfeng Shengzong, Xiao Chen naturally became a celebrity in Tianfeng Shengzong. Even the ten core disciples had heard of Xiao Chen.
At this time, not far from where Xiao Chen lived, there was a cloud shrouding the area. It looked like a fairyland. To all Tianfeng Shengzong disciples, this cloud shrouded area could be said to be the place of dreams, because this was where the ten core disciples lived.
Unlike the core disciples, there were only ten core disciples in Tianfeng Shengzong. Every time a new core disciple was born, it meant that an old core disciple had to leave, either to become a deacon of Glory Sect, or to return to being a core disciple.
Just like the core disciples, the residences of the ten core disciples also extended towards the top of the mountain. The highest cave residence was already very close to the top of the mountain. It was even higher than the residences of the normal elders. From this, one could see how high the status of the ten core disciples in Tianfeng Shengzong was.
At this time, in one of the residences, two young men were sitting opposite each other. The two of them were drinking wine and chatting idly.
"Seems like Glory Sect's selection this time round has produced some interesting little fellas. That Xiao Chen was actually chosen as the number one core disciple by Glory Sect's master. That's a bit surprising." After taking a sip of the wine in his cup, one of them said with a smile.
Hearing this person's words, the other person said with a look of disdain. "That's not a good thing. As the saying goes, 'The higher you stand, the harder you fall'. If you don't have the strength, but you get something that doesn't belong to you, your ending won't be too good."
"Hehe, junior brother, you're right. But I think that Xiao Chen shouldn't be an ordinary person. Alright, let's not talk about it. I heard that junior brother has his eyes on that female disciple called Gu Lingyao?"
"Haha, looks like I really can't hide anything from Senior Brother. Junior Brother is indeed in love with Gu Lingyao."
The two of them chatted as they drank. Judging from their attire, the two of them were Tianfeng Shengzong's ten direct disciples. Among them, the disciple who favored Xiao Chen was named Yu Cheng, ranked ninth among the ten direct disciples. As for the disciple who favored Gu Lingyao, his name was He Chuxun, ranked tenth among the ten direct disciples.
Seeing the undisguised adoration in He Chuxun's eyes when he talked about Gu Lingyao, Yu Cheng smiled and said, "But I heard that Gu Lingyao and Xiao Chen are both from the Tianqi Sect. It seems that the two of them are already engaged."
The matter between Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao was not a secret, so it was not difficult to find out. Hearing Yucheng's words, He Chuxun obviously knew about this matter, but he did not care at all.
"So what if they are engaged? A beauty like Gu Lingyao is not something an ordinary person can have. Xiao Chen better be sensible, otherwise I don't mind teaching him a lesson. "
He did not care that Gu Lingyao and Xiao Chen were engaged. After all, it was only an engagement, not a marriage.
Hearing He Chuxun's words, Yu Cheng shook his head with a smile and did not say anything more.
To be honest, among the ten direct disciples, He Chuxun's strength was the weakest, and his temperament was also the worst. He was arrogant and somewhat condescending. For this reason, Yu Cheng had also scolded him before, but it seemed to have no effect.
He no longer bothered about Gu Lingyao's matter. Anyway, it did not matter to him. In Yu Cheng's heart, his interest in Xiao Chen was far greater than Gu Lingyao's. He wanted to see how this boy, who became the first core disciple as soon as he entered Tianfeng Shengzong, would face the troubles that followed.
He did not know that even the ten direct disciples were already paying attention to his affairs. At this time, in Xiao Chen's residence, Tian Guochuan, several elders, Gu Lingyao, and two other core disciples of Tianfeng Shengzong sat together. A total of twelve people were sitting together. Tian Guochuan and the others would return to the Tianqi Sect tomorrow. Today, they came specially to say goodbye and also to give Xiao Chen a few words.
While drinking, Tian Guochuan looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Xiao Chen, I'm afraid that you will have a lot of trouble in Tianfeng Shengzong in the future. Moreover, you don't know much about the situation in Tianfeng Shengzong. These two were once disciples of my Tianqi Sect. Now, they are core disciples of Tianfeng Shengzong, just like you. You can get closer in the future and help each other if anything happens."
Tian Guochuan, on the other hand, did not stand on ceremony. He directly stated the purpose of his visit and introduced the two core disciples to Xiao Chen.
The two of them were named Zhang Tao and Li Chenglong. Both of them were once disciples of the Tianqi Sect.
In fact, the situation in Tianfeng Shengzong could be said to be both complicated and simple at the same time.
All in all, the disciples of the Heavenly Wind Saint Sect were basically selected from the various major sects and empires of the Heavenly Wind Prefecture. Because of this, the people from different sects and empires had formed many small groups within the Heavenly Wind Saint Sect.
It could be said that Glory Sect was a big sect in Tianfeng Shengzong. However, there were many factions within it. The formation of these factions was naturally inseparable from the major sects and empires of Tianfeng Prefecture.
However, the Heavenly Wind Saint Sect did not stop them and allowed them to form their own factions. As long as they did not do anything that would harm the Heavenly Wind Saint Sect, the Heavenly Wind Saint Sect could not be bothered with the conflicts between the factions.
Like other forces, the Tianqi Sect also had its own forces in Tianfeng Shengzong. Naturally, the two core disciples, Zhang Tao and Li Chenglong, were the leaders.
Tian Guochuan had specially brought the two of them here today because he hoped that they could help Xiao Chen more in the future. Everyone was from the Tianqi Sect. Now that they were in Tianfeng Shengzong, they naturally had to help each other.
However, as soon as Tian Guochuan finished speaking, before Xiao Chen could say anything, Zhang Tao said with an unhappy face.
"Originally, we were all from the Tianqi Sect, so we could be considered brothers. However, as the saying goes, 'Heaven's disaster can be avoided.' Some people are looking for death. Even if we want to help, I'm afraid we can't."
Zhang Tao's words were obviously scolding the locust tree. At the same time, he did not hide the strong taste of jealousy in his words.
Hearing this, Tian Guochuan's face darkened. Xiao Chen smiled slightly and looked at Zhang Tao with interest. This guy was obviously jealous that he became the first core disciple as soon as he entered Tianfeng Shengzong.
"Zhang Tao, shut up. What do you mean by this?" Xiao Chen was not angry at all, but Tian Guochuan had already shouted angrily.
