Bai Feifei, because her cultivation level was sealed, completely dropped out of the top ten core disciples.
Lan Yu’er, Tantai Lingzi, Leng Hao, Ling Xiao, and Dai Yuling ranked among the top five.
As Yue Ren, Ming Tian, and ng Yuan were all killed by Ling Xiao, Shangguan Lei luckily ranked sixth.
Ranked seventh and eighth were originally two core disciples.
Zhao Zhi ranked ninth, and the tenth place was taken by Li Zonghao.
Looking at the latter five, it seed that the strength of the top ten core disciples was not as good as before.
However, judging by the top five, the situation was just the opposite. Now the strength of the top ten core disciples was only stronger than before and had not weakened in the slightest.
Having obtained the fourth rank, and having killed "Ming Tian" and sealed Bai Feifei’s cultivation level, Ling Xiao’s plan was ninety percent complete.
He only had Tantai Lingzi left to deal with.
However, he was already quite satisfied.
It was only a matter of ti before Tantai Lingzi had to be killed, as he was now irreconcilably at odds with that woman.
When he and Wu Xiang left the Desperate Tower, many disciples were still discussing the rankings of the top ten core disciples.
"It’s a pity that Ling Xiao doesn’t seem to plan on continuing to challenge. Otherwise, it’s estimated that getting first place wouldn’t be a problem, right?"
"That’s right, although we couldn’t see clearly what happened inside just now, the frightening fluctuations of True Essence were definitely close to the Heavenly Man Realm, so strong."
"Alas, it looks like we can only wait for the results of the four sects’ martial eting to know Ling Xiao’s true strength."
"Yeah, I guess our Moon Hua Sect might shine in the four sects’ martial eting this ti."
Ling Xiao could no longer hear such discussions. Having obtained the status of a core disciple, Ling Xiao had other commitnts to fulfill, such as his promise to Master Baiyun, and he needed to take Bai Feifei to visit the Divine Sword Sect.
"Senior Brother Wu, that’s the situation. Bai Feifei’s cultivation is almost ruined now. I guess Chang Yueli isn’t likely to fall out with you over her. I plan to take her back to see Master Baiyun and put an end to this matter."
Inside Wu Xiang’s Sect Master mansion, Ling Xiao was actually sitting face to face with him, with no distinction between superior and inferior.
To Ling Xiao, Wu Xiang was still the sa simple and helpful senior brother as before.
"Leave this matter to . If you have anything else, just say it all at once, and I’ll take care of it together," said Wu Xiang with a smile.
"Well, there indeed is sothing else. I need to make so ’Purple Lightning World-shocking’ scrolls, which require quite a few materials. I also need to refine so top-grade True Essence Pills, which also require a lot of materials. Please help issue sect missions for these," replied Ling Xiao without any hesitation.
Such minor matters would be a waste of ti for him to handle personally. It was more efficient to have the sect issue tasks. Not only would it allow the Sect Disciples to train more, but it would also create opportunities for them to earn Spirit Stones. Why not do it?
As they spoke, he handed Wu Xiang a list and said, "These items, gather as much as you can. I want them all!"
"So many! These are quite valuable. Do you need to front you so Low-grade Spirit Stones?" asked Wu Xiang.
"There’s no need for that. At my current stage, Low-grade Spirit Stones barely help with cultivation anymore; they’re just common currency. And I have no less than a million Low-grade Spirit Stones on , so just go ahead and issue the missions. The Sect won’t suffer on my account," said Ling Xiao with a smile.
The items Ling Xiao obtained inside the Moon Blossom Pagoda were not rely those apparent on the surface; the amount of Spirit Stones was actually far greater. However, the Moon Blossom Pagoda feedback system wouldn’t bother ntioning low-grade Spirit Stones due to their low value.
"Fine, since that’s the case, just leave this matter to . I will personally handle it and ensure you are not disappointed."
Wu Xiang nodded.
To Wu Xiang, Ling Xiao was not just the future hope of the Moon Hua Sect, but also his savior. Therefore, his attitude towards Ling Xiao had always been excellent, there was no doubt about that.
He generally wouldn’t oppose anything Ling Xiao asked him to do.
"There’s nothing else for now. However, my trip to Tianfeng City might take a while. That won’t be a problem, right?"
Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
"Of course not. You’re now a core disciple, equivalent to the treatnt of Inner Sect Elders. Going out for a year or two is not an issue, but the Four Sects Martial et is about to begin soon. It would be best if you could return before then; otherwise, it would be difficult for ."
Wu Xiang said with a laugh.
"Rest assured, I certainly will. I also plan to use the Four Sects Martial et to get a sense of the other sects’ strength."
Ling Xiao nodded and added, "By the way, are there any tasks near Tianfeng City that I could complete? Since I am heading back, I might as well take care of them for the sect, helping you resolve so worries."
"There actually is one!"
Wu Xiang frowned slightly and said, "There’s a high-difficulty mission, nearly ten on the scale! Only those in the Half-step Celestial Realm could possibly complete it. Although Lan Yu’er and Tantai Lingzi currently have no plans to take on missions, since you want one, I’ll assign it to you."
"A Level Ten difficulty? That’s intriguing, what’s the assignnt about?"
Ling Xiao inquired.
"The mission itself is relatively simple, just gathering information. However, because Tianfeng City is close to the border of the Sacred Dynasty, there’s a very high chance of encountering danger, so you must be cautious."
Wu Xiang warned, "This mission is issued by the Northern Han Kingdom. It is said that in the seas near Tianfeng City, a mysterious force has appeared. Although this force has not yet posed a threat to the Northern Han Kingdom or the Sacred Dynasty, their mysterious nature is unsettling, hence the need for soone to investigate."
"At sea, really?"
"Yes, their area of activity is in a certain sea region, but the exact location is very hard to pin down. I must remind you, both the Beast King Palace and the Sword King Sect have sent people before to gather information, but they mysteriously disappeared and never returned."
Wu Xiang added, "If you encounter danger, I hope you won’t act rashly. Preserving your own life must co first!"
"Ha, Senior Brother Wu, I might not have many specialties, but escaping is certainly sothing I excel at. Don’t worry, whatever it is, I’ll drag it out into the open!"
Ling Xiao laughed, feeling extrely concerned about this power’s proximity to the Tianfeng City Divine Sword Sect. It was crucial to figure out whether they were friend or foe, as delays could be costly in the event of trouble.
"Rember, you don’t need to act. Just gather detailed information about them, the more detailed, the better!"
Wu Xiang added.
He understood Ling Xiao well, who was practically a battle maniac, sotis reckless in combat to the point of disregarding his life. Hence, it was natural for Wu Xiang to preemptively remind him.
"Don’t worry!"
While Ling Xiao orally assured him, he was inwardly smirking. If possible, he would certainly take action and annihilate that so-called mysterious force; there was no reason to let it be.
Before leaving the sect, Ling Xiao paid a visit to the Moon Lady.
"You really are sothing, actually managing to eliminate the Nine-tailed Fox Demon. When I heard about it, I was quite surprised."
The Moon Lady said with a smile, feeling a sense of doting affection towards Ling Xiao.
