Chapter 187:
Chapter 187 – Superiority and inferiority
“What did that Chen Fei say?”
Inside a house of Yuan Chen Sword Sect, Fan Zong was grasping his quill and was writing with one stroke of the pen, and when he saw Qian Guang Ji, he put the pen in his hand aside.
“There is no intention to sell, unless the Wu Family Yuan Spirit Pool is turned into two days, he will only be willing to exchange for the Orifice Breaking Dan.” Qian Guangji shook his head and told the entire story of the beginning and end of his contact with Chen Fei.
“Yuan Spirit Pool for two days, he dares to mention it!”
Fan Zongzheng snorted coldly, picking up the tea next to him and drinking it in one go, his brows furrowed.
Fan Zongzheng’s cultivation had now reached the peak of the Dirty Practicing Realm, and he had also participated in the trials for true disciples back then, but unfortunately, in the end, he failed the trials and lost his qualification as a true disciple.
Unwilling, Fan Zongzheng cultivated hard for many years and now stepped in front of the door of the Orifice Training Realm. One step further, the sea was wide open, and the status and position would be very different in the future.
But if one did not cross this threshold, then one would be at the Viscera Practicing Realm for the rest of one’s life, although it was already not bad compared to ordinary people, but how could Fan Zongzheng be willing.
Fan Zongzheng didn’t dare to try to break through easily, because there were many difficulties, and once he made a mistake, it would be very difficult to get a second chance.
Therefore, Fan Zongzheng wanted to use all kinds of things that could increase the chances of breakthrough on his own body, and the Broken Orifice Pill was naturally one of them.
In this True Disciple Trial, Chen Fei was undoubtedly an extremely eye-catching presence. With a cultivation level of the Marrow Realm, he actually obtained five iron medals and passed the True Transmission Trial.
Next, as long as he passed the sect’s heart test, all the benefits of a true disciple would fall on Chen Fei’s head, including the Orifice Breaking Pill.
The sect’s heart test was said to be difficult, naturally it would not be too simple, otherwise the sect would not have set up such an item. But when it came to easy, it was actually quite easy.
Fan Zongzheng himself had participated in the heart test, the most important of which was actually the assessment of the sect’s loyalty. As long as you are not a spy from another sect, or too deviant, it is not a big problem.
It could be said that Chen Fei’s Orifice Breaking Pill was already considered a sure thing.
Other true disciples’ Orifice Breaking Pills would naturally not be taken and traded. The Orifice Breaking Pill in Chen Fei’s hand, according to common sense, would definitely not be taken to be exchanged either.
But who let Chen Fei’s cultivation level be low, which made it easy for people to associate it with him. Robbing by force was naturally impossible, but if other resources were used to exchange, wasn’t it a little possible.
“This Orifice Breaking Pill, there should be quite a few people staring at it.”
Fan Zongzheng’s head lifted slightly as he looked towards Qian Guangji and said in a deep voice, “Rites first, troops later, since Chen Fei is unwilling to exchange it, then it’s no wonder we’re using other methods, anyway, this is permitted within the sect’s rules.”
“This is natural, if we don’t do it, others will do it just the same, at that time, it will depend on who has the higher means.” Qian Guangji smiled.
A few miles away, within Feng Xiupu’s courtyard, Chen Fei and Feng Xiupu sat around a stone table.
“True disciple final elimination?” Chen Fei said with some surprise.
“Final elimination? That’s a good word.” Feng Xiupu nodded with a smile.
Chen Fei pondered slightly, because of Qian Guangji’s words, Chen Fei purposely came to Feng Xiupu to find out if there was anything special about true disciples, and he ended up hearing such a rule.
In order to become a True Transmission Disciple, one must not be older, and must be under thirty. One must complete the fifth level of Tong Yuan Gong and pass the two rounds of the sect’s examination in order to obtain the True Transmission Inheritance.
However, after becoming a True Transmission Disciple, although one could enjoy many benefits, it was not true that everything was fine.
In order to keep true disciples competitive enough, in addition to dividing the benefits of true disciples into three, six, nine classes, there is also an even more brutal rule, that is, every six months the bottom ranked true disciples must accept the challenge of other inner disciples.
Of course, only one challenger is accepted, there is no such thing as a wheel battle. Half a year is also considered to be a time of protection for newly promoted true disciples, so that you can have time to cultivate true discipleship techniques.
If the last true disciple accepts the challenge and ends up failing to defend the ring, then you will lose your position as a true disciple. Other than the True Transmission Technique that you have obtained, which you can still continue to cultivate, all the other resources that you have will be turned into the mold of an ordinary inner disciple.
And that inner disciple who succeeded in the challenge would be directly promoted to the position of a true disciple, enjoying the resources due to him.
“Then will this result in people colluding with each other, you win once, I win once, so won’t everyone be able to obtain the True Transmission Technique?”
Chen Fei asked with some doubts, this final elimination, the volume is really enough volume, but it always feels like there are loopholes in it.
“If you succeed in the challenge, you will enjoy the resources of the true disciples, but if you want to obtain the inheritance of the merit law, you must enter the top ten of the true disciples.”
Feng Xiupu smiled and shook his head, saying, “Inner disciples who have the qualification to challenge must pass the heart test at the first hurdle and be below thirty years of age, this is a hard and fast rule. And to challenge the last true disciple, the cultivation of the two must be the same, the challenger’s contribution value is out of ten thousand, whoever wins goes to who.”
Chen Fei nodded somewhat indistinctly, the ones who would go to challenge were presumably those disciples who had participated in the True Transmission Trial in the first place and had not passed.
The sect had not stuck these disciples in their ascending position with a single stick, but had left such a gap here.
You just have to prove that you are strong enough to beat the bottom True Transmission disciples first and obtain the True Transmission resources, and then fight all the way up to the top ten True Transmission disciples to obtain the True Transmission techniques.
As long as you’re strong enough, what you lose will come back.
This was because sometimes in the secret realm’s true transmission trials, luck was important, and so was ganging up. The sect takes these factors away and lets you prove with your own strength that you are worthy of the True Transmission Disciple position. At the same time, it also allowed the sect members who had already become True Transmission disciples to remain vigilant enough. Otherwise, if you had just become a True Transmission Disciple and were beaten down by others, it would be too much of a mistake.
Of course, the contribution value needed for the challenge was not expensive, and the rewards for the last true disciple if he succeeded in guarding the ring were not small.
“I didn’t say this to you before because after you become a true disciple, you will be sent at the bottom for the first month because of your cultivation. But between equal cultivation, I don’t believe that anyone within the sect can defeat you.”
Feng Xiupu looked at Chen Fei with pride for his disciple in his eyes and said, “When one’s own strength reaches a certain level, all intrigues and schemes are all vanity.”
Guo Lingshan had already informed Feng Xiupu of what had happened within the secret territory long ago. According to Feng Xiupu’s estimation, Chen Fei’s strength nowadays could even fight the middle stage of the Viscera Practicing Realm in a hard encounter and be able to win the battle.
At the moment, Chen Fei’s cultivation level was at the Marrow Realm, and even if he broke through to the early stage of the Viscera Realm, the person he challenged would only be at the early stage of the Viscera Realm, so what was there to worry about?
Therefore, Feng Xiupu didn’t mention this rule of true discipleship because he had enough confidence in Chen Fei.
In Feng Xiupu’s mind, Chen Fei will definitely take off, what is hindering Chen Fei now is just the time to grow. And what Feng Xiupu needed to do was to escort Chen Fei’s growth during these times.
“Then disciple will go to the heart test today?”
Having asked for the answer he needed, Chen Fei’s face could not help but reveal a smile. Just as Feng Xiupu’s confidence in Chen Fei, Chen Fei was never vain about challenges between his peers.
“Go, become a true disciple earlier and enjoy those resources earlier as well.” Feng Xiupu smiled and said.
“Alright, disciple farewell!”
Chen Fei got up and arched his hand, Feng Xiupu nodded slightly and watched Chen Fei leave.
Between true disciples, there would be all sorts of rivalries because of the benefits, this was purposely set within the sect. Feng Xiupu was looking forward to Chen Fei, who could go all the way to the top, eventually topping the first place of true disciples, and then stepping into the Realization Realm.
Yes, Feng Xiupu’s confidence in Chen Fei nowadays was just that sufficient.
When age was not an issue, Chen Fei’s advantage in terms of enlightenment was greatly manifested. Although Chen Fei’s root bones were not strong, his enlightenment was really too amazing, and there was not a single true disciple within the Yuan Chen Sword Sect who could compete with him.
Chen Fei left Feng Xiupu’s compound and walked towards the True Transmission Hall, but in a few moments, he saw an imposing hall standing halfway up the mountain.
There were very few people in the True Transmission Hall, just a few people coming and going. When these people saw Chen Fei, they were all a little surprised, because Chen Fei’s cultivation at the Marrow Training Realm was more or less inconsistent with this place.
However, immediately, some of them recalled the recently concluded True Transmission Trial, in which there was a person who had completed the requirements of the True Transmission Trial with a cultivation level of the Marrow Training Realm.
“This person is Chen Fei, isn’t he, tsk, a True Transmission Disciple at the Marrow Training Realm, thinking about it makes people envious.” Someone whispered from the side.
“It is enviable, but the last of the True Transmission disciples has to be challenged by others, I wonder if he can hold his own.”
“It should be possible, I purposely went to find out that Chen Fei’s strength is actually very strong. Senior brother Jiao Xiangyuan just praised Chen Fei and thought that Chen Fei’s status as a true disciple was well deserved.”
“Oh? Senior brother Jiao recognizes Chen Fei so much?” The bystander said with some surprise.
“I heard that they fought together within the secret territory and saw it with their own eyes.”
“Many people have been eyeing Chen Fei’s position as a true disciple, wondering when Chen Fei will come for the heart test. If it’s really according to what you said, those people are probably going to lose their calculations.”
“The Marrow Realm is fine, but when Chen Fei’s cultivation rises to the Viscera Realm, there are quite a few good players at the early stage of the Viscera Realm, including some senior disciples who didn’t complete their tasks in this trial. This level, it’s not that good.”
Scattered murmurs from the surroundings reached Chen Fei’s ears, Chen Fei smiled faintly, not caring, and came directly to the deacon disciple in the hall, handing over his waist plate.
“Heartiness test?” The deacon disciple saw Chen Fei’s waist plate, recognized Chen Fei’s identity, and smiled.
“Yes, I wonder how the test will be conducted?” Chen Fei nodded.
“Please follow me.”
The deacon disciple registered, and then led Chen Fei to the backyard of the Hall of True Transmission, where Chen Fei saw at a glance a huge iron ball that was placed in the backyard courtyard.
“This is the God Refining Bead, place your hand on it to begin the examination.” The deacon disciple introduced this spiritual weapon.
Chen Fei walked forward and looked at it a few times with some curiosity, the aura emanating from this God Refining Bead was somewhat similar to the Heart Bead from back then, but completely different.
Chen Fei thought for a moment and carefully placed his hand on the God Refining Bead. In the next moment, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck Chen Fei, and Chen Fei’s entire mind paralyzed, losing his sense of his surroundings.
In a trance, Chen Fei heard a voice calling out to him, Chen Fei somewhat struggled to open his eyes and saw a group of people surrounding him, and someone else was anxiously dialing a cell phone.
