Chapter 63: Chapter 57: Han Ye, the Senior Disciple of the Outer Sect

Translator: 549690339 |

“Master, Han Ye has fully understood the essence of the ‘Hanshan Five Elements Gang’.”

In the backyard of the Great Hall, under the trees, the aroma of incense wafted, the atmosphere was serene. A rugged middle-aged man with iron-like features and a totally black beard was resting on a master’s chair.

“Oh?”contemporary romance

Elder Gai sat up, laughing lightly: “So there really is someone who can grasp it quickly. It seems that my Pure Yang Peak does indeed have outstanding disciples.”

Shen Yuxiang nodded: “That’s right, Han Ye’s aptitude in boxing is very high. Initially, he grasped half of the technique just by watching the master’s demonstration, and now he has mastered Fire Gang in just a month. His talents are certainly not low.”

“I have indeed underestimated you before.”

Elder Gai laughed heartily, his gaze towards Han Ye was profound.

However, the three-inch crack at the corner of his mouth when he laughed seemed unsettling. He stared at Han Ye, who was waiting quietly by the side, with sparkling eyes:

“I always keep my word.”

“Han Ye, starting today, you are the chief disciple of the Outer Sect.”

Upon hearing these words, Han Ye lifted his head and asked, “Master, is it the new Outer Sect or the old one?”

Elder Gai squinted, saying: “The Outer Sect is the Outer Sect, there’s no such thing as new or old. If you can stay, stay. If you can’t, leave. No concessions will be made for you just because you are a new disciple who joined the sect later.”

“I understand,” Han Ye nodded.

Shen Yuxiang took out a bottle of elixirs from her storage ring and handed it to him, smiling: “Now that you have been promoted to the chief disciple, not only has your monthly salary increased from one hundred to five hundred spirit stones, but you also receive a bottle of Gathering Qi Pill every month. Now, give me your identity jade plate.”

Han Ye took the Gathering Qi Pill, stored it in his storage ring and handed his Jade Token to his senior sister.

Shen Yuxiang’s palm revealed a magic power that lit up the Jade Token.

“It’s done, here you go.”

Soon enough, Han Ye noticed that the words displayed on his identity Jade Token had also changed.

“I heard you’ve taken a spirit pet and want to seek a title for it?” Elder Gai asked.

Han Ye was stunned. He quickly glanced at his senior sister, realizing she had already explained it for him, and he lightly nodded: “Yes.”

Elder Gai frowned, saying: “The process of granting a title is extremely troublesome, involving many layers of review. Why not simply inscribe a soul mark directly?”

Han Ye respectfully replied: “Master, this spirit pet is different from others and cannot be handled in that way.”

“Oh? What spirit pet is it?”

“A White Fox.”

“White Fox…”

Elder Gai pondered for a moment, recalling: “The Fox Demon Race has many varieties, and White Foxes are considered to belong to the ancient Demon Race. Their backgrounds are usually extensive, so it’s indeed not advisable to directly inscribe a soul mark on them. You being able to find a Spirit Fox as a pet definitely shows that you’ve had a significant stroke of luck.”

“However, I’m someone who dislikes trouble.”

“So this is how it’ll be: if you can achieve a good ranking in the Sect’s Big Competition, I’ll file the paperwork on your behalf. How does that sound?” Elder Gai made a decision, asking Han Ye.

“Disciple doesn’t understand, what level is a good ranking?” Han Ye was very confused.

Elder Gai gave a slight smile, looking at Shen Yuxiang: “You explain it to him.” Sister Shen nodded, explaining: “The Sect’s Big Competition is held every year, aiming to assess the cultivation and strength of disciples. The Inner and Outer’ Sects have separate contests, with the top 10 main peaks, except for Heavenly Mystery Peak, competing in turns to rank. Outstanding disciples receive evaluation points. A good ranking means you must at least rank in the top ten among the Outer Sect disciples. Only then does Pure Yang Peak have a strong chance of ranking in the top three among all peaks.”

After hearing this, Han Ye finally had a basic understanding of the competition.

“Why doesn’t Heavenly Mystery Peak have to compete?”

“Because Heavenly Mystery Peak doesn’t have any disciples.”

Shen Yuxiang said indifferently.

“Alright.”

“Master, Senior Sister, I will work hard!” Han Ye solemnly assured his master and senior sister. If Pure Yang Peak could stand out in the Sect’s Big Competition, the resources he would receive would also increase. Both parties would benefit mutually.

“Good! Go now, I have faith in you.”

Elder Gai watched the young and energetic Han Ye, seemingly seeing himself when he just joined the sect, also a young blood filled with passion, and couldn’t help but encourage him.

Then, he looked at Shen Yuxiang, instructing:

“For the following period, I won’t be at the sect. The affairs of mine will be temporarily managed by Pei Liekong, the direct disciple of Pure Yang Peak You and other disciples like Xu Qingshan shall follow his directions.”

“Master, wouldn’t Han Ye receiving the spot for this year’s Senior Outer Sect Disciple so early cause dissatisfaction among the other Outer Sect disciples?” In a voice transmission Han Ye couldn’t hear, Shen Yuxiang asked this question.

Elder Gai chuckled without a word, his eyes teasing.

“Isn’t dissatisfaction very normal? If he can’t overcome even this little trouble, how can he be the Senior Disciple?”

Hearing Master’s reply, Shen Yuxiang found it reasonable.

With great power, comes great responsibility.

They have given the position of Senior Disciple to Han Ye. As for whether he can sit stably in this position, it’s up to Han Ye himself.

Shen Yuxiang led Han Ye out of the Pure Yang Grand Hall.

Han Ye touched his finger and hesitantly took out a Storage Ring, asking the person in front of him:

“Senior Sister, can you help me break the prohibition on this Storage Ring?” This Storage Ring belonged to the Demon Cultivator that he defeated downhill earlier. The reason he hadn’t asked Senior Sister to help him unlock it before was that he was too embarrassed to bother her again. But now that his “Hanshan Five Elements Gang” cultivation was initially completed, he spoke with new confidence and hence didn’t find any problem.

“Of course, where did you get this from?”

Shen Yuxiang took the ring and asked.

‘ From that Demon Cultivator.”

“Hmm?”

Shen Yuxiang looked slightly surprised, but not shocked. There was no rule within the sect that dictated disciples to hand over objects obtained during their outings. If the materials or opportunities were not valuable enough, disciples were allowed to keep them, since those did not interest the Sect.

She simply wiped the surface of the ring. A flash of light flickered for a moment, then she spoke:

“Done.”

“You’re lucky, there are thousands of Spirit Stones in there, several bottles of demon pills consumed by Demon Cultivators, and… a token?”

“A token of a Ghoul Sect disciple.”

Shen Yuxiang took out a blackwood token, with ‘Ghoul Sect’ written on it prominently, and her brow furrowed.

“Senior Sister, what is the Ghoul Sect?”

Shen Yuxiang said seriously: “The Ghoul Sect belongs to one of the seven Demon Paths, also known as the Seven Hazards of the Demon Path. It is extremely evil, and they enjoy refining the spirits of people as nourishment to feed evil spirits for battle. Three years ago, an infamous Ghoul Sect demon head refined an entire city’s population into resentful spirits, just to painstakingly cultivate a Ghost King.”

“This token must be reported to the Sect.”

“Senior Sister, you can take it. After all, this token isn’t of much use.”

“Okay.”

Shen Yuxiang took the token, and leading Han Ye to the Plum Tree Arch Bridge in front of the various peaks of Pure Yang Peak, announced to the busy Outer Sect disciples, a piece of information:

“Starting today, Han Ye is the Senior Outer Sect Disciple, setting an example for the Outer Sect, with the Master’s seal as proof. In case of an emergency in the future, I will instruct the Senior Disciple, and you all should follow as instructed!”

Upon hearing this, many disciples lifted their heads in surprise.

“What? The position of Senior Disciple has been decided this quickly?” “How long has Han Ye been here, and he’s already become the Senior Disciple?” “Who is Han Ye, I’ve never heard of him?”

Discussion filled the crowd. Some people knew Han Ye’s name, while some hadn’t ever heard his name, because there were just too many disciples in each main peak. Some people haven’t even run into each other despite having lived here for several years.

Both Wang Da Niu and Lin Shihuang who were still meditating in the forests, were surprised upon hearing the news.

“Brother Han has become the Senior Disciple?”

“Ha ha ha, I just knew it. I told you, back then all the martial arts I learned were taught by Brother Han, he learned so fast, definitely worthy of the position the Master just bestowed!”

Of course, where there are those who are happy, there are those who are worried.

After parting ways with his Senior Sister, Han Ye could already feel several unfriendly gazes coming from afar.

As a new disciple, occupying the position of Senior Disciple, many old Outer Sect Disciples would inevitably be dissatisfied.

But Han Ye really didn’t worry, with Gathering Qi Pill in hand, it wouldn’t be long before he could break through to the River Realm.

Adding to the fact that “Unrivaled Tyrant Body” just underwent metamorphosis and he had just started to comprehend the “Hanshan Five Elements Gang- Divine Power, his current physical body was unparalleled. He was actually looking for someone to test his strength on, so he wouldn’t mind if anyone came looking for trouble.

But as soon as he simply stood there, with his towering figure and his profound, steady life force exuding from his body, the unfriendly gazes immediately withdrew.

He scratched his head, finding them rather puzzling.
