"Fourth Junior Brother, what's the matter?"
A figure stepped into the air from the building in front of Meng Xinghen and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.
If Duan Lingtian was still here, he would definitely recognize this person at a glance. It was Tu Feng, the one who had gone to the Hidden Fog Academy to recruit him as a disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder but was rejected by him.
At that time, after he rejected him, Tu Feng showed a very unfriendly attitude.
It was as if he couldn't wait for him to die before he entered the Hidden Fog Sect.
"Eldest Senior Brother, do you remember that 10-star student from the Hidden Fog Academy, Duan Lingtian? He's Duan Ling Tian, the person who became the strongest Ten Star Student in the Hidden Mist Academy as soon as he entered the academy. He even accumulated more than 120,000 points during the Ten Star Test. Not only did he break the Hidden Mist Academy's record, but he even surpassed the previous record by three times. "
Meng Xinghen asked.
Although he and his Senior Brother, Tu Feng, had gone to the Hidden Fog Academy in Skywind City to look for Duan Ling Tian before the ten-star student trial began, they were still shocked when they heard about Duan Ling Tian's performance in the ten-star student trial in Skywind City.
Moreover, according to their idea, that was the best opportunity for the God King level family to kill Duan Lingtian. But in the end, Duan Lingtian was still alive and well.
"Of course I remember."
Tu Feng's eyes flashed. "I heard from Master that Vice Sect Master Murong recommended him to enter the sect in advance and become an inner sect disciple. At the same time, he recommended him to participate in the core disciple assessment.
"I just didn't expect him to come so quickly."
Although Tu Feng's tone was calm, the depths of his eyes flashed with a cold light, like a sword.
"Eldest Senior Brother."
Meng Xinghen said with a dignified expression, "That Duan Lingtian is now an inner sect disciple of our Hidden Fog Academy. Even if you are dissatisfied with his previous response, it's best not to act against him."
"You also know the rules of the sect …"
Meng Xing Hen knew that this Eldest Senior Brother of his was famous for having a violent temper, and he was deeply afraid that his Eldest Senior Brother would come looking for Duan Ling Tian to vent his anger once he was displeased.
"I know."
Tu Feng replied impatiently, "Did you come to me just to remind me?"
"Yes."
Meng Xinghen smiled bitterly. He had come to look for his Eldest Senior Brother not only to tell him that something unexpected had happened to Duan Lingtian, but also to remind him not to make a move against Duan Lingtian without permission.
Once things got out of hand, perhaps even their master would not be able to save him.
"I'm not that stupid."
Tu Feng disdainfully said, "Since that Duan Lingtian has come to the Hidden Fog Sect, I, Tu Feng, have plenty of methods to deal with him. There is no need for me to personally act … moreover, he isn't worthy of me personally acting!"
Although Tu Feng wasn't a core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect, he was still a relatively famous existence amongst the inner sect disciples.
A part of the reason he was famous was because his master was the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder. But, a greater part of the reason was because of his strength. He was a God King powerhouse amongst the inner sect disciples.
A Lower Divine King who was less than ten thousand years old was rare even among the inner sect disciples.
"That's good."
Meng Xinghen relaxed as he heard this.
"Alright. If there's nothing else, you should cultivate diligently and try to break through to the God King realm as soon as possible … otherwise, that Duan Lingtian will catch up to you soon."
Tu Feng waved his hand at Meng Xinghen and then left by himself. He didn't return to his residence but instead went far away.
Meng Xinghen looked at Tu Feng's departing back, a helpless look in his eyes.
He knew that this Eldest Senior Brother of his was definitely looking for someone to deal with Duan Lingtian.
He understood his Eldest Senior Brother's personality better than anyone else. He was the type that couldn't suffer any losses. Last time, he had lost face because of Duan Lingtian, so he held a grudge against Duan Lingtian. He had always been unwilling to accept this.
Before Duan Lingtian came to the Hidden Fog Sect, things weren't so bad. It was difficult for him to deal with Duan Lingtian. But now that he was here, he naturally wouldn't miss any chance to deal with Duan Lingtian.
"I hope Eldest Senior Brother won't make things worse … that Vice Sect Master Murong rarely places so much importance on a person. For him to recommend Duan Lingtian twice in a row shows just how much he values him."
Meng Xinghen sighed and returned to his residence.
He and Tu Feng were both disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder. Their residence was in their Honored Master's residence.
…
Duan Lingtian followed behind Tang Wuyan, following her all the way to the inner sect disciple's cultivation area.
Along the way, Tang Wuyan patiently introduced and explained to Duan Lingtian.
"That is Fourth Elder's residence. Most of Fourth Elder's disciples also live in that place."
"The upper echelons of the sect basically let their family or disciples live under the same roof. This is more convenient for communication and also more convenient for teaching.
"The inner sect disciples that live in the inner sect disciple's cultivation area are basically all inner sect disciples that haven't joined any of the upper echelons of the sect … there are some inner sect disciples that the upper echelons want to accept as disciples. But, they either think they already have a Honored Master and aren't willing to join anyone else. Or, they are arrogant and think that the person who wants to accept them as a disciple isn't qualified to be their Honored Master.
"Of course, there are even more inner sect disciples that don't have high status in the upper echelons because of their ordinary performance … As for the upper echelons of the sect, they are self-aware and know that the inner sect disciples might not take them seriously. Thus, they don't go and ask for humiliation."
Speaking of this, Tang Wuyan glanced at Duan Lingtian and sighed, "Your Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy's Dean, who is also our Hidden Fog Sect's Vice Sect Master Murong … I don't think he mentioned accepting you as a disciple?"
"Mm."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Indeed, Dean Murong Suifeng didn't mention accepting him as a disciple.
"Do you know why?"
Tang Wuyan looked deeply at Duan Lingtian and asked.
Then, without waiting for Duan Lingtian to speak, she continued, "With your talent and comprehension, not to mention Vice Sect Master Murong … even many Grand Elders and Guardians who have the same status in the sect as Vice Sect Master Murong, or even higher Guardians, want to accept you as a disciple after your results in the 10-star trial at Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy came out."
"Why?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
In fact, this was also what he was puzzled about. When he first met Murong Suifeng, he was already prepared for the possibility that Murong Suifeng wanted to accept him as a disciple. He also thought about how to refuse.
But, in the end, Murong Suifeng didn't say a word.
At that time, he was thinking:
Could it be that Murong Suifeng found out about his response when Tu Feng came to find him?
However, based on what Tang Wuyan had just said, it didn't seem to be that simple.
"Vice Sect Leader Murong used to have a disciple whom he doted on very much. However, that disciple died prematurely in the end. After his disciple died, he swore that he wouldn't accept another disciple. Of course, he didn't swear a Blood Oath. "
Tang Wuyan continued, "Even if he didn't swear a Blood Oath, according to my granduncle, he wouldn't go back on his words.
"My granduncle knows Vice Sect Master Murong very well about this."
Speaking of this, Tang Wuyan's eyes glinted with respect for Murong Suifeng.
Then, Tang Wuyan looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Duan Lingtian, when the news of your arrival in the sect spreads out, I'm afraid many Guardians and Grand Elders will want to accept you as a disciple.
"When the time comes, you have to think carefully about which Guardian or Grand Elder you want to become a disciple of.
"However, my advice to you is … try your best to become a disciple of Wind City. That way, you'll be better taken care of. After all, you're from Wind City. "
Tang Wuyan was Tang Chun's grandniece. Although she was not born in Wind City, Tang Chun had taken Wind City's side in the sect. Therefore, when she entered the sect, she was labeled as a member of the Wind City faction.
"If you join another sect, you'll naturally be taken care of … However, they might doubt your loyalty. After all, you're from Wind City.
"Of course, what I've given you is just a suggestion. It's up to you to make the final decision."
In the end, Tang Wuyan added, "I hope my words won't affect you. No matter what you choose, it's your freedom … The Wind City branch won't target you just because you joined another branch."
"After all, you're from the same sect."
After hearing Tang Wuyan's words, Duan Lingtian smiled faintly. "Thank you for the reminder."
"After crossing the mountains in front, we'll reach the inner sect disciples' cultivation grounds."
Tang Wuyan led Duan Lingtian through a building and arrived in front of a mountain range. She looked at the towering mountains in front of them and spoke to Duan Lingtian.
"In the sect, there are thousands of inner sect disciples … Among them, only ten to twenty percent are disciples of the upper echelons. Most of the inner sect disciples usually stay at the inner sect disciples' cultivation grounds. There are also some who go out to gain experience and haven't returned.
"There are also some older ones who are helping the sect manage some businesses outside."
"Usually, there are only a thousand or so people who stay at the inner sect disciples' cultivation grounds."
After Tang Wuyan finished speaking, she led Duan Lingtian over the mountains and arrived at a vast hilly area.
In front of them was a hilly area. It was uneven and complicated.
And in every corner of this hilly area, there were stone and wooden houses. Moreover, these stone and wooden houses were all different. They didn't look like they were built by the Hidden Fog Sect specifically for inner sect disciples.
"The residences here are all built by the inner sect disciples themselves … The cobwebbed areas are unoccupied. You can clean them up and live there. You can also build your own house."
Tang Wuyan said, "As for the other things that inner sect disciples need to pay attention to, you can look through the memory jade slip that inner sect disciples receive when they go through the sect entrance procedures. You'll be able to understand it clearly.
"If there's anything you don't understand, you can also ask me."
As Tang Wuyan spoke, she took out a soul bead and handed it to Duan Lingtian.
"Thank you."
When Duan Lingtian received the soul bead, he also handed over his own soul bead. "I'll have to trouble you today … If there's anything I can help you with, you can also look for me."
