Dai Yuling managed a bitter smile and said, "Thank goodness you’re all right, or I would have beco a great sinner of the Sect."
Though she spoke lightly, she was sincerely grateful to Ling Xiao from the bottom of her heart.
The battle today was initiated because of her.
Lan Yu’er’s beautiful eyes shifted, her gaze towards Ling Xiao sowhat complex. She was once considered an outstanding talent within the Sect.
Because of that, her cultivation had been sowhat lax; otherwise, she might have already ascended to the Heavenly Man Realm.
However, it was only after seeing Ling Xiao that she truly realized her efforts were far from enough. If she continued to slack off, she feared this youngster would easily surpass her.
The Princess of the Northern Han Kingdom, Zhao Ci, had her small mouth agape in surprise. She couldn’t understand why the heavens were so unfair, allowing this cruel fellow’s strength to increase so rapidly.
Prince Zhao Zhi of the Northern Han Kingdom could only manage a bitter smile and a shake of his head.
He was grateful that he had not challenged Ling Xiao before; otherwise, he feared his defeat would have been even more embarrassing.
Back when he first entered the Sect, he had thought about dominating the Outer Sect and suppressing everyone.
But then ca Leng Hao.
And now, there was Ling Xiao.
Leng Hao was only distinguished by his exceptional talent and caught the eye of the Golden Light Heavenly Lord.
But Ling Xiao, while not as talented as him, had far surpassed him in both cultivation level and strength, leaving him utterly frustrated.
He felt he was increasingly unable to see through this junior brother of his who had entered Moon Hua Sect at the sa ti.
"Elder Black, what do you think? Does Ling Xiao now deserve the title of number one among the Outer Disciples?"
Elder Bai looked quite pleased as he addressed Elder Black, whose expression was rather unpleasant.
"Hmph, it’s not so easy to beco the number one of the Outer Sect. The three before him were not his match, but there are others in the top ten, and there are more than a thousand Outer Disciples total. It’s likely that there are so who are not afraid to challenge him."
Elder Black snorted coldly.
"Hehe, what you ntioned is a matter for the future. Right now, Ling Xiao is the number one Outer Disciple, who dares to disagree?"
Elder Bai laughed heartily. Elder Black, always flaunting the montum of the Demonfla Heavenly Lord, had ridiculed him every chance he got. Today he finally had his revenge.
As for Ling Xiao, to say that he didn’t care about the title of the number one Outer Disciple wasn’t entirely true.
After all, the resources and treatnt that ca with being the number one Outer Disciple were far better than those available to all other Outer Disciples.
Therefore, Ling Xiao received a new dwelling that very day.
This dwelling was in a better location, with more abundant Spiritual Qi, and the monthly salary he could now claim was more than all the other Outer Disciples.
It was more than thirty tis the rewards compared to the Outer Disciples ranked after thirty.
Not only that, but when Ling Xiao t with the Master of the Desperate Tower that evening, he also received the promised rewards.
"Ling Xiao, your performance in the Desperate Tower has left very satisfied. Therefore, I can offer you an opportunity to choose a Gold Grade rare Martial Art from the Inner Sect’s Moonlight Tower. You are free to pick from any type, and it doesn’t matter when you make your choice, but your ti inside the Inner Moonlight Tower can’t exceed half an hour."
Gold Grade rare Martial Arts!
Ling Xiao couldn’t help but show a smile.
His current Internal Cultivation Mind Technique, the Snow Lotus True Scripture, was still at the quasi-Gold Grade level, which had long since been insufficient for his current cultivation level, and choosing a Gold-tier Internal Strength Cultivation thod was an absolute necessity.
Ling Xiao himself already possessed the Gold Grade superior defense Martial Art, the Heavenly Dragon Golden Body, and the Gold Grade rare Sword Technique, the Snow Lotus Sword Technique.
So in his mind, he understood the great difference between the different tiers of Gold Grade Martial Arts.
Not to ntion the difference between quasi-Gold Grade Martial Arts and Gold Grade Martial Arts.
Even between the beginner stage Gold Grade Martial Arts and Gold Grade rare Martial Arts, there was an absolute world of difference.
In the Moon Hua Sect, Outer Disciples could only learn beginner stage Gold Grade Martial Arts, whereas Inner Sect Disciples were eligible to study the rare Gold Grade Martial Arts!
Thus, for him, as an Outer Disciple, the value of this opportunity was crystal clear, more so than anyone else.
"This is a special Entry Token for the Inner Moon Radiance Pavilion, it can only be used once, cherish it well,"
After giving Ling Xiao a token, the Master of the Desperate Tower instructed him to leave.
Although Ling Xiao felt that the aura of the Master of the Desperate Tower was very familiar, he still did not dare to confirm it. So things, once confird, could lead to fatal dangers.
If this person truly was who he thought they were, they would reveal their identity to him directly, so there was no need for him to worry about this matter.
Upon returning to his new dwelling, Ling Xiao did not rush to select Martial Arts.
He wanted to ensure he was in peak condition, as he only had half a shichen, and being in a less than ideal state could prove troubleso.
Of course, while recuperating, he still did not forget the task entrusted to him by the Yuan Venerate—
to concoct the Fire Serpent Array.
Beyond Internal Cultivation Mind Techniques, he was also looking forward to cultivating in the Guanghan Palace.
Now that the Demonfla Celestial had set his sights on him, as long as he remained within the Sect, with Yang Dan Lin protecting him, the Demonfla Celestial would not dare to do anything.
Of course, through individuals like Hei Suo, the Demonfla Celestial could still exert pressure on Ling Xiao.
However, unless the Demonfla Celestial personally took action, Ling Xiao was not afraid.
Nevertheless, he feared that he could not leave the Sect lightly in the short term; it would truly be dangerous unless he either had a powerful individual accompany him or if he possessed the ability to protect himself against the Demonfla Celestial.
Cultivation was one aspect.
Array Formations were another.
Of course, Alchemy as well.
If he could concoct truly outstanding pills, it wasn’t impossible to hire a protector at the Heavenly Man Realm, even though that would take a considerable amount of ti.
Feeling fully restored, Ling Xiao then left his dwelling and prepared to head to the Inner Moon Radiance Pavilion.
But before he did, he went to check on Dai Yuling.
Because he wanted to know her current situation and whether she had been bullied during the days he rested.
The situation was better than he expected; his thunderous thods had silenced all the Outer Disciples.
And Yang Dan Lin’s intervention to block the attack from the Demonfla Celestial also made the Elders and Stewards of the Outer Sect hesitant to offend Ling Xiao.
They would rather remain neutral, as offending either party could lead to dire consequences.
This was made very clear by the stances of Elder Black and Elder Bai.
Elder Black was resolutely on the sa side as the Demonfla Celestial.
While Elder Bai firmly supported Ling Xiao.
Passing by the Outer Sect and the Pharmacy Hall, many Outer Disciples showed him great respect, whether sincere or not, but all of them were hesitant to call him "Senior Brother Ling."
This promotion from junior brother to the most senior brother of the Outer Sect was indeed a bit strange.
Especially when being addressed as senior brother by soone twice his age made him feel awkward.
But this is reality; if your strength surpasses another’s, they must show you great respect, regardless of their seniority or age.
Originally, Ling Xiao did not plan to be so ostentatious. His initial plan was to enter the Inner Sect in one fell swoop after advancing to the Transcendent Realm, with no need to dominate the Outer Sect.
However, now it actually worked out for the best, being pushed to beco the number one in the Outer Sect.
He had thoroughly subdued the entire Outer Sect beneath his feet.
