Although it had been ten years since Qin Jue had joined Xuanyi Mountain, as he rarely appeared in crowded places, many cultivators sent elsewhere had never seen him, like Zhao Ruocheng.
Zhao Ruocheng only heard rumors about Qin Jue from his fellow disciples.
''How could a teenager like this become an Uncle-Grandmaster?'' Zhao Ruocheng was not satisfied.
He started training at the age of six, and it took him only twenty-three years to reach the Late Stage of the Profound Realm.
In the future, he even had the chance to step into the Earth Realm, and become one of the elders in Xuanyi Mountain.
But now, he had to refer to a teenager as his uncle-grandmaster? On what basis? Does he have more power?
If Zhang Yue was not here, Zhao Ruocheng would definitely oppose Qin Jue directly.
Zhang Yue did not know what Zhao Ruocheng was thinking, he was discussing with some mentors about the upcoming training.
Since Penatau Wu did not come, Zhang Yue had to be more careful. After all, no matter how he looked at it, his uncles lying on the roof seemed to have no intention of helping.
As the Hall Master of the Black Forest Branch Hall, if something were to happen to the disciples, Qin Jue might be fine since she was the junior sister of the sect master, he said, but Zhang Yue will definitely get into trouble.
After two hours of discussion, they finally decided the training time would be held tomorrow. After all, those new disciples had just arrived from a long trip. If they did not rest, it would definitely affect them.
When Zhang Yue and the others came out walking out of the main hall, Qin Jue, who was on the roof, had already disappeared. No one knows where he went.
Zhang Yue suddenly had a strange thought. Although these uncle-grandmasters were extremely unreliable, for him to be accepted as the last disciple of the previous sect master, his talent was definitely not bad.
So, he suddenly asked, ''Mentor, do you guys know in what realm Uncle-Grandmaster is now?''
''We don't know.''
The mentors looked at each other and shook their heads.
''But since Uncle-Grandmaster is able to replace Elder Wu, I think at least he should be in the Earth Realm.'' One of the mentors guessed.
''Inevitably, the temperament of Uncle-Grandmaster was extraordinary. One look and you will know that he is not an ordinary person.'' Another mentor chimed in.
''Earth Land?'' Zhang Yue widened his eyes in disbelief.
How could a teenager reach Earth?
But in hindsight, If Qin Jue had not reached the Earth Realm yet, how could she have been assigned to replace Elder Wu?
''It's impossible!'' Zhao Ruocheng, who was at the side, suddenly shouted out loudly, and attracted everyone's attention.
Noticing this, Zhao Ruocheng was stunned, he unintentionally shouted it out.
''Why is it impossible? Young man, don't sit at the well and look up at the sky, or you'll just look stupid said one of the mentors in a displeased tone.
''That's right, that's right.'' Other mentors agreed.
''You—''' Zhao Ruocheng couldn't contain his anger, and was about to speak but was interrupted by Zhang Yue, ''Shut up!''
Zhao Ruocheng felt suffocated, his eyes filled with anger, but he was still obedient to keep his mouth shut.
Just when the atmosphere became a bit awkward, suddenly there was a deafening sound in the distance. Qin Jue then lightly landed in front of everyone, still dressed in white and extremely handsome.
''How's discussion? Is the training time decided?'' Qin Jue said drunkly.
While suppressing his shock, Zhang Yue replied, Su—it has already been decided, we will start training tomorrow morning.''
If he was not mistaken, Qin Jue seemed to have just flown. To be able to fly in the air, one had to reach the Earth Realm.
In other words, Qin Jue was indeed an Earth realm cultivator!
Beside him, Zhao Ruocheng was already stunned, and he did not dare to believe his eyes.
As for the two mentors who had previously said that Qin Jue was an Earth realm expert, they had complacent expressions and did not forget to use their eyes to mock Zhao Ruocheng.
''Understand, is there a place to sleep?'' Qin Jue yawned sleepily.
Mentors are speechless.
You've been sleeping for a day, haven't you gotten enough sleep?
''Yes, yes, yes!'' Zhang Yue nodded repeatedly.
''Someone, quickly arrange a room for Uncle-Grandmaster. Wait, let me do it myself.''
After saying that, Zhang Yue carefully led Qin Jue to his residence.
Initially, Zhang Yue thought that Qin Jue was at most only in the Profound Realm, and was only responsible in this event symbolically to complete the task, he said, so that he could return to the sect to receive a reward.
As everyone knew, there was an enormous difference between an Earth realm cultivator and a Profound realm cultivator.
Even if Qin Jue just stood there and did nothing, he could still intimidate others. How could Zhang Yue not be happy about this?
He quickly arranged for Qin Jue to stay in a separate courtyard, which was usually used for the elders.
The courtyard was even next to the river, it was quite calm and its spiritual qi was extremely dense.
However, Qin Jue was being unwilling to appreciate the scenery. After entering the courtyard, he immediately went to his room and fell asleep.
He slept until the next day.
Next morning.
The sun rises, and the world comes alive.
Qin Jue opened her eyes and stretched her body before opening the door in high spirits.
Dong!
A melodious bell rang, and echoed throughout the branch area.
Qin Jue looked up, he knew that the training was about to begin.
…
In the vast square, over two hundred new disciples had gathered. They huddled together, making it a bit noisy.
''Silent!''
Zhang Yue stood in front and shouted. Then, he continued, All of the disciples of Xuanyi Mountain, I'm sure you all know that this training will determine your status in your sect and your future.''
''Remember, disciples who hunt three monsters or less, regardless of your talent, can only enter the outer sect. While those who hunted four monsters or more, they would be directly promoted to the inner sect.''
''With monster cores as proof, the top three disciples with the most monster cores would be rewarded with spiritual empowerment.''
''If anyone is hiding or not hunting monsters, then I am sorry, you are not qualified to become a cultivator and will be eliminated.''
''Training time is three days. In these three days, you are not allowed to form a team. You are not allowed to leave the designated area. You are not allowed to hurt your fellow disciples. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences!''
''In addition, if you encounter a high-level monster beyond the training level or your life is in danger, place your hands on the jade tablet you have been given before, he said, and put your spiritual power into it.''
''When the mentors sense this, they will immediately rush to save you.''
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yue looked around and shouted again, Do you all understand?''
''We understand!''
All students immediately responded.
''Very good, the training is officially starting!''
With a wave of Zhang Yue's hand, two hundred more new disciples fell silent for a moment before rushing towards the nearby Black Forest, and quickly disappeared into this wilderness.
''Help the mentors.'' Watching all the new disciples enter the forest, Zhang Yue cupped his hands towards the mentors.
''Hahaha, don't worry, Hall Master Zhang.'' The mentors smiled and then parted in different directions to infiltrate the Black Forest, secretly protecting those new disciples.
At the same time, Qin Jue finally arrived with a jug of wine in her hand.
He took a sip of wine and casually asked, Training has already begun?''
''Yes!''
Zhang Yue then said solemnly, Uncle-Grandmaster, please take care of them!''
Although there should only be low-level monsters in this area, the Black Forest was still a very dangerous place.
No one could guarantee that a Profound realm monster or even an Earth realm monster would not suddenly leap out.
These new disciples were the future fresh blood of Xuanyi Mountain, if they were to be attacked by high-level monsters, it would be a great loss to Xuanyi Mountain.
''No problem.'' Qin Jue nodded and flew to one of the pillar stones in the square, then he sat down, and continued to drink casually.
Zhang Yue: ''???''
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
