Chapter 413: Question and Decision

After the superiors of the Sect obtained the news, they also went to verify it. When they personally saw, through the Reflection Image Array, Lou Mu Yan sitting cross-legged in the Metal Elemental Underground Palace to cultivate, they were very pleasantly surprised.

Over the years, countless talented pupils had also tried to cultivate in the eighth chambers of the Elemental Underground Palaces, but no matter how they tried, they failed. Now it seemed they it was because the method wasn’t correct.

The elemental gravity space in the eighth chamber was ten times that of the seventh chamber. It would definitely be difficult to adapt at first entry, and there were also many people who had tried to enter a few more times but haven’t persevered.

Lou Mu Yan also kept failing at the beginning, but she wasn’t discouraged and continued to try unswervingly.

Each time she made a little progress, she challenged her limits again and again. After trying hundreds of times, she finally broke the shackles that had prevented pupils from cultivating in the eighth chamber for millennia and became the true first.

“Sect Leader, do you have any arrangements for Lou Mu Yan during the Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition this time?” After seeing the scene in the crystal ball, the Headmaster of the Array School asked.

The Sect Leader pondered and said: “Those above intends to let her participate in all the competitions.”

“What? Participate in all the competitions? The above are so optimistic about her?”

The Headmaster of the Smithing School couldn’t help but say: “There’s no need to debate about her talent in Arrays and Talismans as they’re exceptional; judging from how she can take out so many Grade 4 pills, her Alchemy talent must also be Grade 4 without any surprise; in terms of Taming, she has a Tier 9 Ice Luan Divine Beast, so her chance of winning is also pretty high.

“But she has never shown any talent in smithing. If she doesn’t even know how to Smith, then wouldn’t it be our loss?”

The Headmaster of the Smithing School was very optimistic about Lou Mu Yan’s talent, especially her fire attribute element being at Great Achievement, and now her metal attribute had also been comprehended to Great Achievement in the Underground Palace’s eighth chamber. Such a talent was indeed a good seedling for Smithing.

The only thing he was worried about at the moment was whether she knew how to smith or not. If she was just a beginner in Smithing or was lower than Grade 4, then she was unsuitable to participate in the competition of the Six Major Sects.

“You don’t have to worry about this. She revealed good talent in Smithing in the Pagodas of Enlightenment in the Secret Area.” The Sect Leader revealed a little bit, but he didn’t tell them that Lou Mu Yan had comprehended all five Pagodas of Enlightenment to the seventh floor.

“Since that’s the case, I have nothing to say, but I’m afraid that the fact that she occupies six spots all for herself, the other pupils would be unreconciled.” The Headmaster of the Smithing School expressed his concern.

Huo Ling Long leaned back lazily on the back of her chair, stretched out her nails and blew it, “So what if they’re unreconciled? If they have such comprehensive ability, then they can also participate!”

“How about we do a selection in the sect? If Lou Mu Yan can really demonstrate the strength to participate in the Six Major Sects’ competition, then the other pupils wouldn’t have anything to say either.” The Headmaster of the Alchemy School suggested.

He was very interested in the Meridians Nourishing Pill Lou Mu Yan took out earlier. A pill that even Qi Ran and the Gao Brothers praised definitely had the effects of a Grade 5 pill.

If this pill was refined by Lou Mu Yan, then she should indeed represent a place in the Alchemy School to compete.

However, he actually wanted to dig Lou Mu Yan into the Alchemy School. It would be too much of a waste for her, who had the talent born to be an Alchemist, to reside in the Talisman School of that female tyrant dragon.

“Sect Leader, considering Lou Mu Yan’s talents in metal and fire being at Great Achievement, it would be inappropriate to leave her in the Talisman School.” The Headmaster of the Array School had long wanted to dig her corner. Seeing her comprehend the metal attribute element to such high standards, he couldn’t help but suggest.

Huo Ling Long’s expression instantly turned cold. She slammed the table in front of her with her palm and shattered it as she said fiercely: “Damned old thing, are you trying to dig my corner right in front of me?”

“I’m just speaking the truth. Letting Lou Mu Yan remain in the weakest Talisman School is ruining a good seedling. Can you not always be so violent? Can’t we speak reason?”

The Headmaster of the Array School softened his tone and continued: “If you give Lou Mu Yan to the Array School, just tell us what compensation you need, as long as we have the ability, we can agree.”

Lou Mu Yan was now a Grade 5 Array Master. If she came to the Array School and underwent special training, it was entirely possible for her to become a Grade 6, and even Grade 7, Array Master. Even if he spent a little to bring her over it would be worth it.

The Alchemy School Headmaster and the Taming School Headmaster also said: “Our School also wants Lou Mu Yan. What the Array School can promise, we can too.”

Huo Ling Long glanced at the several people, “Lou Mu Yan is a pupil of lao’niang’s School, don’t keep daydreaming about digging corners, who cares about your compensation.

“If you have the guts then win lao’niang in a fight. Lao’niang can then think about it.” Then she released the pressure entirely, saying to the several people in a domineering manner.

“…” The Elders couldn’t help but roll their eyes. If they could defeat this tigress, then did they need to endure all the anger from her for so many years?

“Sect Leader, just look at her attitude.” The Headmaster of the Array School said with an expression as of his heart ached: “I’m just thinking of the Sect. Lou Mu Yan has such talent, she should learn the most suitable specialisation for her to make best use of it.”

“What do you mean for her to learn the most suitable specialisation for her? Her skills in talismans are bad. Don’t confuse your own selfishness with the interests of the Sect.” Huo Ling Long huffed coldly: “It’s useless to talk much, it’s impossible for lao’niang to let Lou Mu Yan go.”

Afterwards, the several Headmasters quarrelled over Lou Mu Yan’s affairs and they all wanted to dig her over, but they were also very afraid of Huo Ling Long.

The Sect Leader looked at the people quarrel with a headache and he said: “Enough! Now isn’t the time to discuss this. Let’s talk about Lou Mu Yan’s choice of School after the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects.”

“Then do we need to hold a selection competition?” The Headmaster of the Alchemy School wanted to see for himself whether Lou Mu Yan’s Alchemy skills were indeed Grade 4 as he guessed.

“No need. Lou Mu Yan’s place was determined by the Ancestors. Whoever has any doubts right now, we will know after the Grand Competition.” The Sect Leader waved his hand and said: “And with that little girl’s temperament, she definitely wouldn’t like that kind of test. For the Land of Inheritance quota, it’s better not to touch her baseline.”

“Sect Leader is this optimistic about her? It’s difficult to specialise in one specialisation, it’s not that possible she specialises in the five specialisations.”

An Elder beside the Sect Leader questioned: “Most importantly, her achievements in all five specialisations aren’t low. That probability is too low, I don’t believe it.”

“There are also examples of people who specialise in all five. Chi Xiu of the Heavenly Secret Palace won all five specialisation competitions and the championship in the Strength Competition in the last Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition. It’s not impossible a genius like that appears in our Sect.” The Sect Leader replied lightly.

He had seen Lou Mu Yan’s performance in the Secret Area’s Pagodas of Enlightenment, and he wouldn’t doubt her strength on this.

“But…” The Elder still wanted to speak but was stopped by the Sect Leader.

“Alright, the decision that Lou Mu Yan will occupy six spots in the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects was decided by the Ancestors, it’s useless to talk more about it.”

The Sect Leader paused, then waved his hand and instructed: “The Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects is about to start, you can all return to prepare.”

The Headmasters of the several Schools and the other Elders couldn’t continue to argue upon hearing the Sect Leader say this. After all, they didn’t dare question or disobey the orders of the Ancestors of the Sect.

Therefore, Lou Mu Yan, who was still cultivating in the Elemental Underground Palace, had her places in the Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition decided just like that.
