"Are you out of your mind? How dare you daydream when the First Elder is looking at you!" Xiang Qiankan rolled his eyes. He was exasperated with Wang Chen.
What a great opportunity! If the First Elder took a liking to him, he might even be brought into the inner sect! How could he be distracted by such an opportunity? What could be more foolish than this in the world?
Wang Chen directly ignored this. At this moment, his eyes were completely focused on the unfathomable First Elder. He had no time to pay attention to Xiang Qiankan.
Discussions were getting louder and louder, and the square was in a hubbub.
"After discussion, the Elders have decided to allow Wang Chen to enter the Inner Sect Library to choose a Mystic Level Martial Skill as a reward!" Just as everyone was in a heated discussion, the Great Elder added fuel to the fire by stating the conditions of the reward.
"My god, a Mystic Level Martial Skill!"
"Enter the Library to choose!"
"No way, this has never happened before!"
"Damn, is that kid the illegitimate son of the First Elder?"
The whole square seemed to be shaking, and everyone felt like they were going crazy.
What an honor it was to allow Wang Chen to enter the Library to choose a Mystic Level Martial Skill. Even those in the top 10 of the Stars List did not have such luck. Even if they stayed long enough to enter the inner sect to obtain martial arts and martial skills, the Mystic Level Martial Skill was given according to the Elders' agreement. Now, Wang Chen was allowed to choose by himself. Even Liu Yuanxiu did not get such an honor. Now, Wang Chen got it!
This meant that if Wang Chen was lucky, he could choose a Mystic Level Martial Skill! Moreover, it was the most suitable martial skill for him. This was more tempting than any other reward.
Elder Yellow-tooth and Elder Withered Bones behind the First Elder looked at each other with a shocked expression. Although they had guessed that the reward would not be bad, they did not expect it to be this good.
It seemed that in the past hundred years, no Outer Sect disciple was allowed to enter the Library to choose their martial skills! Even Liu Yuanxiu didn't have it all those years ago. At that time, he'd merely obtained a mid-grade Profound Rank martial technique that the Second Elder had given him. Now, Wang Chen had actually obtained even better privileges than him?
The two of them couldn't help but smile bitterly. The inner sect had really made an important decision.
"Little fellow, come with me to choose a martial skill. The rest of you can leave now!" Ignoring the shock of the crowd, the First Elder nodded his head in satisfaction and called out to Wang Chen, his figure spreading to every corner of the venue.
"Brat, hurry up and go. Dammit, you're really lucky! Remember, choose carefully. Don't waste this opportunity. Hehe, find me a High Mystic Level book! " Nudging Wang Chen, Xiang Qiankan said anxiously. He seemed to be even more anxious and excited than if he had gotten this opportunity himself!
Wang Chen's previous words had also shocked him. Entering the Compendium Pavilion to choose a Martial Skill was something only the most outstanding inner disciples had. Now that he had obtained it, he was very surprised.
Nodding at Xiang Qiankan, he hurriedly walked forward to the First Elder's side.
Following the First Elder, they left the square under the watchful eyes of the crowd. Little did they know that the people who stayed behind were filled with jealousy as they watched the two of them leave.
The people in the square did not leave for a long time. They seemed to be discussing Wang Chen, who was in the limelight at the moment. They were guessing what high-grade martial skill manuals he could obtain from the Compendium Pavilion.
Elder Yellow-teeth and Elder Withered Bones could only smile bitterly at the crowd's reaction. Wang Chen had indeed brought too much shock to everyone.
… …
Following the First Elder, they walked towards the Inner Sect. The Inner Sect of Xingchen School was located in a small canyon within the Outer Sect. It was a man-made canyon with mountains stacked on both sides, towering majestically and forming a beautiful scenery!
Walking along the slightly rugged and narrow mountain path, the two of them did not speak a single word. Very soon, they arrived at the Inner Sect.
The Inner Sect was the core of Xingchen School. A large hall stood at the very front. It was grand and majestic, displaying the demeanor of a thousand-year-old sect.
Passing through the large hall, there was a large martial arts arena at the back! On both sides of the arena were two neat rows of buildings, arranged in a very standard manner.
However, there was no one in sight. At this time, the people in the Inner Sect should be training. That was why they did not meet many people along the way.
The Compendium Pavilion was a simple and unadorned pagoda-shaped building. The pagoda was three stories high and its entire body was a faint vermilion red. One could tell that it was very old.
Standing in front of the Compendium Pavilion, the First Elder stared deeply at Wang Chen and said meaningfully, "Little fellow, go up and choose for yourself. What you choose will depend on your luck!"
Nodding at the First Elder, Wang Chen walked straight into the Compendium Pavilion! As soon as he entered, he felt a wave of energy cover the entire door, blocking the way in.
Most sects' Compendium Pavilions or other important places would set up such an energy shield to protect them!
The Inner Core Energy in his body surged as Wang Chen walked forward resolutely. The layer of energy shield instantly emitted a dazzling light, as if an invisible wall was blocking his way.
"Break for me!" The rebound force from the energy shield caused Wang Chen to frown. With a light shout, all the strength in his body burst forth!
His entire body was like a sharp sword as he fiercely stepped forward. Every step seemed to cause a huge tremor in the energy shield.
Bit by bit, as Wang Chen moved forward, the energy shield was stretched out like cotton candy. Finally, like a bubble, with a light sound, a hole appeared!
Taking advantage of this moment, Wang Chen smoothly entered the Compendium Pavilion through the hole. At the same time, his figure disappeared in front of the First Elder, as if he had disappeared into thin air. Through the seemingly transparent energy shield, there was no trace of him.
"Tsk tsk … this time, it seems that the Second Elder brought back a good seedling. Even a Level Nine Body Refining Cultivator might not be able to pass through this layer of energy shield!" Pursing his lips, the First Elder looked at the place where Wang Chen disappeared and muttered to himself.
"All of you, retreat. Protect the Compendium Pavilion!" After a moment, the First Elder said softly to the air.
A few formless auras flashed and disappeared.
How could such a large Xingchen School Compendium Pavilion be unprotected?
"What kind of martial skill you get will depend on your luck. Little brat, cherish it. This is the first time in a hundred years that it has been opened to the outer disciples! However, it seems that those fellows are starting to get restless. Perhaps trouble will come knocking on your door soon. Little brat, I hope you can hold on! "Deeply, the First Elder lightly sighed and quietly stood in place, waiting.
Inside the Compendium Pavilion, at this moment, Wang Chen felt as if he had entered another world. It was completely silent!
The simple and unadorned green lamp emitted a faint light, illuminating the entire room, reflecting a trace of ancient charm.
Inside the room, there were more than ten large bookshelves neatly arranged. On each bookshelf, there were hundreds of sheepskin scrolls. These were the so-called martial skill manuals.
Looking at row after row, the dazzling sheepskin scrolls caused Wang Chen to be somewhat dumbfounded. Xingchen School, as expected of a large sect with a thousand years of history. The collection of martial skill manuals was truly not small.
However, very quickly, Wang Chen discovered that the majority of the manuals displayed here were actually Yellow Rank martial skills. There was not even a single Cultivation Technique manual. This caused him to frown slightly. Could it be that the Xingchen School's collection was only these? Although there was a lot of quantity, the quality was not much. He did not even see a Profound Rank martial skill. Or could it be that the Profound Rank martial skills were all placed in the second floor?
