“Elder Ling, thank you. I'll make a special trip to treat you to a drink sometime.”

An hour later, Bi Yusheng took his leave and departed the Outer Gate Martial Repository plaza.

However, a considerable pressure suddenly arose in his heart.

In the span of an hour, Elder Ling meticulously introduced everything he knew about Li Yun to Bi Yusheng.

The more Bi Yusheng listened, the more numb he felt!

Because someone slandered Li Yun, the Sect Leader was furious and personally ordered Hall Master He Yunzhang of the Disciplinary Hall Main Hall to handle it, expelling three thousand Outer Sect Disciples, dozens of Martial Arts Deacon, and Outer Sect Elder in one go.

In Bi Yusheng's opinion, this matter was actually understandable.

He is a Disciple of Lingyun Pavilion, after all, he has that kind of prestige!

Those fools who dared to slander a Disciple of Lingyun Pavilion deserved their bad luck.

They should perhaps even be grateful that the Lingyun Pavilion learned about this late. If they had known earlier that someone dared to slander a Disciple of Lingyun Pavilion without fearing death, hmph, the entire Lingyun Pavilion, starting from their Boss (Lǎodà) Zhao Junshan, would definitely have taken action.

Could slandering a Disciple of Lingyun Pavilion be resolved by just expulsion?

That's impossible.

Those main culprits shouldn't even think about leaving the confines of Heavenly East Mountain.

Every single one of them would be crippled and suppressed.

But—

Joining the Sect for over two months, reaching the ninth level of force refinement, and cultivating at least a second-grade Inner Force, what the heck is that?

Entering the Tianfu Mountain relics, finding the Tianfu Inner Force Condensation Method for the hundred thousand Outer Sect Disciples, giving the hundred thousand Outer Sect Disciples the fated opportunity to cultivation the top three grades of Inner Force from then on, what the heck is that?

The most exaggerated part is that he had only been in the Martial Repository for two days.

He actually created the 【Divine Martial Eighteen Stances】 which can allow Outer Sect Disciples to temper their bodies with spiritual energy before comprehending intent...

For this, the Outer Sect Elder Hall is already preparing to erect a monument for Li Yun in the Elder Hall.

Starting next month.

The Outer Sect is preparing to completely abolish the practice of 【Basic Stance Training】 and switch to cultivating the 【Divine Martial Eighteen Stances】 created by Li Yun.

Currently, the Martial Arts Deacon of the Outer Sect are diligently studying the 【Divine Martial Eighteen Stances】 so that they can instruct the Outer Sect Disciples on switching to cultivating the 【Divine Martial Eighteen Stances】 starting early next month.

Even the four major Inner Sect academies are preparing, encouraging Inner Sect Disciples to also supplement their cultivation with the 【Divine Martial Eighteen Stances】, because cultivating this Stance Training to a profound level can also re-temper the bodies of Inner Sect Disciples who have already cultivated Innate True Qi, having a certain effect of supplementing the Foundation.

This is too ridiculous, this is simply...

I've heard of disciples who, after joining the Sect, learned lost martial arts through various opportunities, but I've never heard of a newly joined disciple creating a martial art that changes a habit of a Sect that has been cultivated for hundreds of years and alters the martial art set for teaching disciples.

With this going on, Li Yun is practically becoming the patriarch of the hundred thousand Outer Sect Disciples.

No matter how great the achievements these hundred thousand Outer Sect Disciples achieve in the future, they will all have to owe Li Yun a favor.

Even if they become Supreme powerhouses, they wouldn't dare to deny this connection!

Not to mention, this is just the current generation of Outer Sect Disciples. If the Heavenly Martial Sect doesn't collapse, there will be successors, year after year, generation after generation...

Holy crap!

Just thinking about it is terrifying!

Numb!

Bi Yusheng was truly numb!

He suddenly felt a strong sense of urgency. Once this eighth brother arrives at the Lingyun Pavilion, he, the weakest seventh brother at the moment, might become an awkward situation.

“No...”

“I need to hurry back and cultivation, otherwise, by the time this eighth brother starts practicing Battle Tactics, I might not even have the face to hang around.”

...

Returning to the Lingyun Pavilion.

Ji Bochang greeted him with a smile.

“Haha, you're back so quickly, hurry up and tell us about the eighth brother's situation?”

Bi Yusheng subconsciously opened his mouth, just about to say what he had learned, but suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, no, why should I tell them?

Moreover, Ji Bochang, you sixth brother, what's with that smiling face, don't you think I know?

Heh heh, when the eighth brother comes in the future, I, the seventh brother, might not have it easy, and you, the sixth brother, shouldn't expect to have it easy either.

So—

What was on the tip of his tongue turned into a temporary excuse.

“Well, I chatted with Elder Ling at the Outer Gate Martial Repository and learned some things.”

“This eighth brother of ours is still young, only 16 years old this year. He is a disciple who just joined in September. He rendered great service to the Sect a while ago!”

“It is said that he went to the Tianfu Mountain relics with Outer Sect Elder Gu and brought back the Tianfu Inner Force Condensation Method that the Sect had longed for. From now on, the Outer Sect Disciples of the Sect will all have the fated opportunity to cultivation the top three grades of Inner Force.”

Bi Yusheng spoke half-truths, hiding the other half.

He intentionally or unintentionally wanted Ji Bochang and the others to believe that Li Yun entered the Lingyun Pavilion based on his merits.

After all, it was a super merit that could change the future of the Heavenly Martial Sect. Giving too little reward would damage the prestige of the Heavenly Martial Sect, and giving too much would easily bring trouble to Li Yun.

Letting him enter the Lingyun Pavilion could be considered an exception.

As expected, Ji Bochang was fooled.

“Good heavens, is this eighth brother so lucky?”

“Joining the Sect for only over two months and entering the Lingyun Pavilion based on merit, it's simply a meteoric rise... Damn, why didn't I have such good luck back then?”

“If I had that luck, I would be the Boss (Lǎodà) of the Lingyun Pavilion now, saving me from being called sixth brother by you guys all the time, it's so annoying!”

Lie Huheng let out a cold laugh upon hearing this.

“What's wrong with calling you sixth brother? I'm called second brother by you guys every day, have I said anything?”

“If you ask me, sixth brother... if our rankings were swapped, that would truly be fitting.”

Ji Bochang was stunned for a moment: “What do you mean?”

Lie Huheng curled his lips: “Nothing, figure it out yourself. Hmm, I suddenly remembered, I still have clothes to wash. I'll be going first...”

After saying that, he directly flashed away.

“Damn, this second brother, still washing clothes, I heard him talking nonsense... Hmm?”

Ji Bochang suddenly remembered something, his face suddenly turned red, and he immediately roared: “Lie Huheng, you bastard... you dare to curse me!”

“You're the second brother, your whole family is the second brother!”

“You bastard, stop right there, I'm definitely going to fight you today!”

The enraged Ji Bochang roared and chased after him.

The remaining five Disciple of Lingyun Pavilions couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter on the spot, all of them laughing so hard they were bent over.

Even the Boss (Lǎodà) Zhao Junshan's face was red, laughing so hard he was choking.

“What was this second brother thinking, to say that about the sixth brother... And honestly, it really is quite fitting. I was wondering why the Sect Leader always called us by name when calling roll, but only called the sixth brother directly by sixth brother!”

“Could it be that even the Sect Leader couldn't stand it for a long time?”

The few of them chatted and laughed, and thus actually overlooked the eighth brother Li Yun.

Seeing that no one asked anymore, Bi Yusheng also felt guilty and didn't dare to mention it again, he just silently walked to the side and began to further comprehend his Battle Tactics.

Regarding the future eighth brother, Bi Yusheng truly felt enormous pressure!

It was a good thing Li Yun didn't know about this, otherwise he would be confused, what does this mean, I haven't even arrived at the Lingyun Pavilion yet, how did the competition already start?
