Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 699 - 238: Lu Changsheng Defeats 100 Saints in 1 Str

The disciples of the Holy Land were astonished by the na Lu Changsheng, but the martial artists who had co to participate in the Holy Land’s disciple recruitnt were equally shocked.

In fact, they were even more shocked.

Holy Land disciples had witnessed countless peerless geniuses.

But for those outside the Holy Land, such geniuses were a rarity.

When they saw Lu Changsheng, their eyes widened, faces filled with curiosity.

"Is this the legendary Saint Lu?"

"It really is Saint Lu. Unbelievable."

"Back when Saint Lu was only a Martial Venerable, he could already counter-slay Martial Saints. Now that he has advanced to Martial Saint, just how powerful must he be?"

"Saint Lu probably also intends to join the Heavenly River Sacred Land, but no Martial Saint has successfully joined the Holy Land in the past century. Can Saint Lu succeed?"

"If even Saint Lu can’t join the Holy Land, who among Martial Saints could possibly qualify?"

Although these people were not particularly strong themselves,

and their insight might not be sharp,

even they understood that Lu Changsheng would most likely be able to join the Heavenly River Sacred Land.

This was the current renown of Lu Changsheng, whose fa shook the entire Holy Land!

"Saint Lu, the examination for Martial Saints isn’t conducted here. Please proceed to the mountain gate."

A few disciples stepped aside respectfully, allowing him to pass.

One of the disciples even personally led Lu Changsheng through the gates of the Heavenly River Sacred Land.

Step by step, Lu Changsheng walked into the Heavenly River Sacred Land.

From afar, he gazed.

He could see the vast and boundless Heavenly River.

He could even hear the rushing sound of the Heavenly River.

Moreover, the further up he climbed, the more astonishing the sight beca. He realized that the grand mountain gates of the Heavenly River Sacred Land were actually built in mid-air.

Yes, suspended in the sky.

Peaks upon peaks, caves, pavilions—all floated above the Heavenly River.

The entire Heavenly River Sacred Land was like an Immortal Realm.

"Is this... a formation?"

"And not an ordinary formation. I estimate that even a Heavenly Saint would struggle to destroy the mountain gates of the Heavenly River Sacred Land easily."

Lu Changsheng’s expression turned solemn.

An entire mountain gate, suspended in mid-air.

This was certainly a grand display.

It could only be described as magnificent!

And yet, it also underscored the majesty of the Heavenly River Sacred Land.

Every martial artist who set foot in the Heavenly River Sacred Land couldn’t help but feel awe-stricken.

Led by the disciples of the Heavenly River Sacred Land, Lu Changsheng arrived at a mountain peak.

On the peak sat a Martial Saint with white hair and beard, his face glowing with a healthy red hue, quietly ditating cross-legged on the ground.

"Elder Liu, this is Martial Saint Lu Changsheng, here to take the examination," the disciple said before stepping respectfully aside.

Elder Liu opened his eyes.

"A Martial Saint from the outside?"

He glanced at Lu Changsheng and said indifferently, "For a hundred years, no external Martial Saint has passed the examination."

"No matter what reputation you hold outside—whether you’re an illustrious giant or an obscure recluse—here in the Heavenly River Sacred Land, you’re ordinary, insignificant."

This Elder Liu, evidently soone who had long stayed within the Holy Land, seed indifferent to worldly affairs.

He had no interest in outside matters.

He hadn’t even heard of "Lu Changsheng."

A nearby disciple seed to want to speak but hesitated, ultimately opting to remain silent.

The disciple knew well—Elder Liu was irritable.

Exceptionally irritable and stubborn.

If he praised Lu Changsheng’s illustrious reputation, it might only provoke Elder Liu’s displeasure.

So he refrained from saying a word.

Lu Changsheng, however, was indifferent, not seeming to care about Elder Liu’s deanor.

The people of the Holy Land were accustod to looking down from on high. Such attitudes were normal.

Lu Changsheng’s mind, in coming to the Holy Land, was not about petty argunts.

Thus, he directly asked, "If I pass the examination, what position would I hold in the Heavenly River Sacred Land?"

He wanted to know his status and rank within the Sacred Land upon passing the examination.

If the position was too low, it wouldn’t fit his ambitions to "share in" the montum of the Sacred Land’s masses.

If so, it would be better not to join the Sacred Land at all.

Elder Liu gave Lu Changsheng a glance and replied indifferently, "I understand the thoughts of you external Martial Saints. You rely want to tap into the montum of the Sacred Land’s masses to cultivate your Sacred Body."

"In this regard, the Heavenly River Sacred Land is willing to grant you the opportunity. The collective montum of the Sacred Land is imnse, but every bit of it is accounted for—not every Martial Saint who arrives here qualifies to use it for cultivation."

"External Martial Saints who pass the examination can generally assu one of three positions."

"First, as an ordinary Elder of the Holy Land’s various halls, from which you may receive a small share of montum. While not much, it builds steadily over ti, allowing basic cultivation using the montum."

"Second, as a Vice Hall Master of the various halls. In this capacity, a Martial Saint holds a higher rank than an ordinary Elder and enjoys greater access to the Sacred Land’s montum for cultivation."

"Third is the Title Elder. Such individuals bear no responsibility for the halls and are directly conferred a sacred title, cultivating within the Sacred Land as they please. In terms of status and privileges, they are a re half-step below the Sect Leader. It is thus the highest honor within the Sacred Land that an external Martial Saint may achieve."

Lu Changsheng’s eyes glead brightly.

Ordinary Elder, Vice Hall Master, Title Elder.

It was evident at first glance that the Title Elder surpassed both the Ordinary Elder and the Vice Hall Master by far.

In terms of status and benefits, it was just a small step below that of the Sect Leader.

In fact, it could rival that of the Vice Sect Leader.

Each Title Elder enjoyed extensive access to the montum of the Sacred Land’s masses to cultivate their Sacred Body.

"Are there any restrictions or conditions for becoming a Title Elder?"

Lu Changsheng inquired.
