The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal - Chapter 308

Chapter 308: Chapter 308: One Million Prestige, Disciple Admission Ceremony
 

“Alas, I actually have no chance to join the Misty Sect, such a pity!”

Ding Qing shook his head repeatedly with a sense of helplessness.

With an upper-grade root bone and being the Young City Lord of Beiliang City, he was already in the Element Gathering Realm at just twenty-five, a genius by all accounts.

In theory, even a Two-Star Sect would have easily accepted him, and he would have even become a True Disciple.

But now, he couldn’t even join the Misty Sect!

“Right, with Sect Master Ye, such an unfathomably powerful figure in the sect, isn’t the Misty Sect at least a Three-Star Sect?” Ding Cheng asked curiously.

Ye Feng shook his head, “No, our Misty Sect is currently a One-Star Sect, not even ranking as a Two-Star.”

“What?”

Ding Cheng and Ding Qing exchanged glances, both very surprised.

With the presence of Ye Feng and Hu Feifei, two such powerful figures, the Misty Sect was still only a One-Star Sect?

“Perhaps, Sect Master Ye simply can’t be bothered to certify for the Two-Star rank!”

That was the only conclusion Ding Cheng could come up with.

After chatting with Ye Feng for a while longer, he escorted Ye Feng and Hu Feifei to a guest room in another tower, and then left with Ding Qing.

Soon, major news spread throughout Beiliang City.

The mysterious strong man who had traveled thousands of miles to Beiliang City today, and had consecutively slain the Mad Python King and Poison Scorpion King, was from the Misty Sect of the Mystique Kingdom.

The Fox Immortal is a Protector of the Misty Sect.

As for the other graceful man, he was the Misty Sect’s Sect Master, even more powerful and inscrutable.

Once the news was out, Beiliang City was astounded.

Previously, millions had watched the battle and witnessed Hu Feifei’s seemingly fragile yet wild and domineering fighting style, and they were all amazed.

In the elegantly furnished guest room.

[Sect Prestige Value +9973]

[Sect Prestige Value +10239]

…

Until dusk, the Sect Prestige Value surged by hundreds of thousands, breaking through the one million mark with unstoppable momentum.

“Ding, congratulations on the Sect Prestige Value breaking through one million. The Spirit Beast Pavilion is unlocked to Fifth Order, and new functions are opened.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng clenched his fist and immediately opened the information panel of the Spirit Beast Pavilion to check.

[Spirit Beast Pavilion: Fifth Order]

[Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts: 11/50]

[Spirit Beast Pavilion Promotion Description: Prestige Points breaking through ten million will unlock the sixth stage of the Spirit Beast Pavilion, adding new functions]

[Function One: Strength Accumulation; the spiritual beasts in the Spirit Beast Pavilion can provide additional cultivation level boosts to the Sect Master]

[Function Two: Scouting (Enhanced Twice); obtain the names, types, uses, talents, and deeper weaknesses of various demonic beasts]

[Function Three: Bloodline Purifying Pill; this pill can purify the bloodline of spiritual beasts without limit, maximizing the potential of spiritual beasts, with a “Virtual Pill Refining Furnace,” allowing you to refine pills after collecting the necessary materials, with three possible refinements per day]

[Function Four: Spirit Blood Transference; strip the bloodline from fallen demonic beasts, refine it into “Spirit Blood,” and transfer it to any spiritual beast]

[Function Five: Spirit Beasts Platform, a place specifically for the habitation of spiritual beasts. Training on the Spirit Beasts Platform can double the cultivation speed of spiritual beasts]

After browsing the information for the Fifth Order Spirit Beast Pavilion, Ye Feng noticed many changes.

Firstly, the scouting function had been enhanced a second time.

Then, the number of uses for the Virtual Pill Refining Furnace increased to three per day.

However, this change was not significant as the Bloodline Purifying Pill didn’t need to be refined every day; it seemed rather superfluous.

The scope for Spirit Blood Transference expanded, now allowing transfer to any spiritual beast, not just those within the Misty Sect.

What Ye Feng was most looking forward to was the fifth function.

“Spirit Beast Platform… It seems to be a physical structure.”

Muttering, Ye Feng raised his hand, and a nine-story platform appeared in his palm, reduced in size by many times, square, with four banners flying at the top in the breeze.

“After returning to the Sect, I’ll set up the Spirit Beast Platform.”

Ye Feng decided.

He remembered he still had two opportunities for Miniaturized World Transformation and could build a Spirit Beast Peak with a dedicated spot on top for the Spirit Beast Platform.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng felt his plan was quite good.

“Ding, detected that the Sect Prestige Value has broken through one million, awarded an upper-grade support-class Spiritual Artifact ‘Cultivation Tower’ with five major zones: Gravity Zone, Enlightenment Zone, Combat Zone, Illusionary Realm, and Opportunity Zone.”

The System beeped again with a notification.

Ye Feng’s thoughts stirred.

Thud!

A cyan ancient tower appeared in the palm of his hand, seven stories tall, with each of the five levels between the first and the top floor representing a different function zone, each with incredible properties.

“It seems I need to construct another peak, named ‘Cultivation Peak’ or ‘Transmission Peak’ or something like that, for placing this Cultivation Tower.”

Ye Feng began planning again.

He still had two opportunities for Miniaturized World Transformation, which could be used for situating both the Spirit Beast Platform and the Cultivation Tower.

“By the way, shouldn’t the fourth stage of the Sect Master’s mission start now? Or is there no new mission at all afterwards?”

Ye Feng put away the Spirit Beast Platform and the Cultivation Tower, muttering to himself.

…

In Beiliang City, due to Ding Cheng’s announcement of Ye Feng’s identity, millions of mortals and cultivators were already abuzz.

Additionally, the news that Ye Feng was going to hold a disciple recruitment ceremony had also spread.

“I heard that Misty Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony is tomorrow; we must become disciples of Misty Sect!”

“Misty Sect seems to be just a One-Star Sect—are you sure you want to join?”

“What’s wrong with a One-Star Sect? Are you looking down on One-Star Sects? Keep in mind, Protector Hu Feifei is a powerful figure capable of defeating the Mad Python King and Poison Scorpion King; she is also our savior in Beiliang City. I, Xu Dalei, must join Misty Sect to repay them for saving our lives!”

People were talking about it all over Beiliang City.

Under the night sky.

Ye Feng stood on top of a tower, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and noticed that Hu Feifei was still in a sleeping state beside him.

“Three days should go by quickly…”

Ye Feng murmured to himself.

After the disciple recruitment ceremony was over and upon returning to Misty Sect, it would be just about time, but he hoped he wouldn’t run into any high-level Spirit Sea Realm experts on the way back.

Otherwise, that would spell disaster!

The following day at noon.

Ye Feng, Hu Feifei, Ding Cheng, Ding Qing, and several dozen Element Gathering Realm experts arrived at the huge square in the center of Beiliang City.

Looking at the long queue in front of him, Ye Feng showed a look of surprise.

“Sect Master Ye, there are more than thirty thousand people interested in joining your sect today; they’ve lined up from the square out to over ten miles away. Are you really going to inspect each one of them?”

Ding Cheng was inwardly taken aback.

“Of course I’m going to personally inspect them,” Ye Feng nodded, and added loudly, “Those over twenty years old do not meet the criteria for discipleship!”

As his voice rang out, the entire place fell silent.

“What?”

“This is age discrimination!”

Many burly men with beards covered their faces with their hands, weeping bitterly.

Some women were holding their children, washing their faces with tears, and wailing, “Can’t I even join the sect to admire Sect Master Ye’s handsome face every day?”

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of people left the queue.

In the end, only a little over seven thousand remained.

“Line up, one by one.”

Ye Feng waved his hand and immediately, a young man with bushy eyebrows and big eyes stepped forward and placed his hand on the table, allowing Ye Feng to take his pulse.

“Ding, qualified.”

As the system’s notification sounded in his mind, Ye Feng smiled at the young man before him.

“Young man, what’s your name?”

“Sect Master, hello, I’m Xu Dalei!”

“Very good, you’ve passed.”

“Really… really?” Xu Dalei was overjoyed.

Not far away, Ding Qing looked at this scene, silently envious and shedding tears of sorrow.

The disciple recruitment ceremony continued.

“Not qualified.”

“Not qualified.”

…

After Xu Dalei, dozens of successive individuals were not qualified to become disciples, and Ye Feng shook his head repeatedly, feeling regretful,

“Eh, you qualify!”

But soon, Ye Feng found that a young girl in a white dress met the criteria, quickly registered her, and then moved on to the next one.

“Only one or two out of dozens of people qualify, Misty Sect’s disciple recruitment really is about fate, otherwise they wouldn’t even turn away young people with Middle Grade talent,” Ding Cheng mumbled to himself as he watched the proceedings.

Seeing this, Ding Qing’s mood also improved a lot.

For some reason, seeing so many people unable to join Misty Sect gave him a feeling of pleasure and satisfaction.

“Hehe, I’m so perverse!”

Ding Qing chuckled to himself.

The disciple recruitment ceremony was still bustling.

It lasted until late into the night, with people still queuing and waiting, and Ye Feng was so professional that he even held back his urge to urinate and continued screening with dark circles under his eyes.

However, the disciples meeting the criteria were just too few.

It wasn’t until the next afternoon that Ye Feng finally finished the inspection.

Out of the more than seven thousand people, only thirty-five met the criteria for beginners, and now they were all waiting nearby obediently.

“Finally done!”

Ye Feng stood up, twisted his stiff back and let out a “crack” sound, feeling a refreshing soreness throughout his body, and then turned to look at Xu Dalei and the other thirty-five young men and women, feeling a full sense of accomplishment.

Together with Shi Lei and the other older disciples, Misty Sect now finally had fifty-one disciples.

“It wasn’t easy!”

Ye Feng couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
