"Senior Brother Cao, Liu Xing is quite polite as he just arrived. Don't you think it's inappropriate for you to be like this?" Zhang Kuo said unhappily.
"Hmph, my Heavy Sword Peak has always kept a low profile and has never competed with outsiders. This Liu Xing's personality is very flamboyant, causing trouble everywhere he goes. He doesn't agree with the spirit of my Heavy Sword Peak. Why did you recruit him?" Cao questioned.
"Because he insisted on drawing his heavy sword. Are you satisfied with this reason?" Zhang Kuo said with disdain.
"What?"
For a moment, everyone was shocked, and half of them looked at him with respect.
"Hmph, I'm not going to argue with you. When Senior Brother Boulder comes, he'll judge." Cao returned to the jade wall after saying that.
"Liu Xing, don't worry about him. He's just like that. He's always full of himself." Zhang Kuo looked at Cao with disdain, then led Zhou Yang to another side.
"Senior Brother Zhang, this place seems a bit different," Zhou Yang said in confusion.
"Ha ha … of course! Heavy Sword Peak possesses a special power. The lower you go, the stronger the pressure you will feel. By cultivating here, not only can we increase our physical strength, we can also cultivate our state of mind. You will know the benefits after staying here for a while. Also, don't call me Senior Brother. Just call me Zhang Kuo. Truth be told, your status is higher than mine," said Zhang Kuo with a wry smile.
"Status?" Zhou Yang frowned.
"That's right. Heavy Sword Peak has fewer Sword-Bearing Elders and Guardian Elders than the other peaks, so the number of Guardian Disciples is limited. There are only eight Guardian Disciples in the entire Heavy Sword Peak. Other than Senior Brother Boulder, who is the last disciple, the other seven are all worth more than seven million."
"So strong!"
Zhou Yang was surprised. He knew that there were very few people worth more than seven million in Dragon Gate Hill, but Heavy Sword Peak had seven.
"That's not strange. The other four peaks have more than me, but not everyone likes to stay in the three courtyards."
Zhou Yang nodded. It seemed that he had underestimated the disciples of Tiangang Sword Sect. The truly strong ones were probably all quietly training in the other peaks. The ones who really showed off in Dragon Gate Hill were ordinary.
"Liu Xing, you've just arrived at the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, so you might not know this. The disciples in the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect are divided into many levels. The lowest level is the free disciples who have just arrived at the Dragon Gate Gang. These people are all free and don't belong to any faction. Only those who perform well will be recruited by the five peaks. You're very lucky to be a Guardian Disciple the moment you arrive …"
"Free disciples, disciples of the five peaks, protector disciples, and above that should be sword-bearing disciples, right?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Above the Guardian Disciples are the Guardian Disciples, and above them are the Chief Guardian Disciples. For example, Senior Brother Boulder from the Heavy Sword Mountain, Shadowless from the Flowing Light Sect, and Xia Bingxin, who you know, are all Guardian Disciples. However, even among Guardian Disciples, there is a huge gap between them."
Zhou Yang smiled. Zhang Kuo was right. Shadowless and Xia Bingxin were both one of the three tycoons of the purple academy. They were the protector's last disciple. However, Xia Bingxin was much weaker than shadowless.
"The Chief Guardian Disciple is the strongest out of all the Guardian Disciples. He is also known as the Senior Brother, and is the leader of all the disciples. Above them are the Sword-Bearing Disciples."
As he spoke, a look of envy appeared on Zhang Kuo's face. "Each of the five peaks would at most have two Sword-Bearing Disciples, and each of them would have a net worth of at least 9 million. It wouldn't be strange for them to have a net worth of over 10 million."
"What about the Sword Master?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Sword Master?" Zhang Kuo shook his head. "Those existences are all characters with peerless talent. Each of them possess a Heavenly Dipper Astral Soul, and they aren't even considered as disciples. I don't even dare to think about becoming a Sword Master. The Peak Leader's Disciple is already my greatest goal."
"Peak Leader's Disciple? Seems like there are disciples with a higher rank than the Sword-Bearing Disciples."
"Yes, the Heavy Sword Peak's Peak Leader has yet to accept a disciple. We still have a chance." Zhang Kuo's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Zhou Yang nodded, and after a moment, he asked, "I want to know, which disciples are Zhou Qianxian and Ye Zhining?"
"Them? Why are you asking them? "Zhang Kuo asked.
"I'm just curious. I heard that they are the most outstanding female disciples in the Moonlight Peak." Zhou Yang laughed.
Zhang Kuo nodded, "That's right. When Zhou Qianxian's net worth was 5 million, she was brought into the sect by the Sword-Bearing Elder of the Moonlight Peak. I'm not too sure about the details, but I heard that it was because her Astral Soul was very special. That's why she received such treatment."
"What about Ye Zhining?"
"Ye Zhining is a miracle. Originally, the Moonlight Peak's Peak Leader should have been Zhou Qianxian, but after Ye Zhining's arrival, Zhou Qianxian could only be a Sword-Bearing Disciple. After all, Ye Zhining has the Frost Phoenix Physique, a physique that can only be found once in a hundred years. Not to mention, she has the 3rd Prince backing her up!"
"Sword-Bearing Disciple, Peak Leader's Disciple …"
Zhou Yang pondered for a moment. Right now, he finally had a clear understanding of his enemies.
The strongest genius of the Zhou Clan, Zhou Aotian, was already a Sword Master. His status was above the younger generation. Nangong Ying, who had a close relationship with Zhou Qianxian, and Jian Wuhen, who coveted Tang Yuewu, were also Sword Masters.
Below these people, Ye Zhining was a Peak Leader's Disciple, and Zhou Qianxian was a Sword-Bearing Disciple.
In terms of battle prowess, he was still a distance away from them.
It wasn't that he was belittling himself. After all, he had to rely on himself to obtain cultivation resources, while they could easily obtain them.

In the path of cultivation, talent, resources, and perseverance were all indispensable. To him, opponents with high talent weren't scary. What was scary was opponents with similar talent, but strong perseverance and inexhaustible resources.
Undoubtedly, there were many such people in the 3rd Prince's faction.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't have any advantages. His advantage lay in the unlimited Astral Souls and the Qilin True Pattern.
"Seems like the Nine-Eyes Astral Soul can't be delayed any longer. The 3rd Astral Accumulation is about to open. I have to have the Nine-Eyes Astral Soul before I face off against the 3rd Prince. Also, I have to improve the Magma Giant God Astral Soul …"
The immense pressure made him want to improve his strength.
"It's Senior Brother Ju Shi." Zhang Kuo stood up with a respectful expression. Zhou Yang was curious as to what kind of person would be so respectful to someone like Zhang Kuo.
Turning around, he saw that the person was ten feet tall. His face was ferocious like a giant, and as he walked, the wind whistled.
"Who is Liu Xing?"
His voice was like thunder, causing the crowd's ears to buzz.
"I am …" Zhou Yang stood up, but before he could continue speaking, Ju Shi suddenly punched out. His fist was as large as a sandbag. Zhou Yang instinctively raised his hand, and the two fists instantly collided.
