Although w.a.n.g Yifan was a threat, being the champion of the inner disciple compet.i.tion was still very attractive. Countless people had the same idea as You Chuyun—to become Chu Yunfan’s follower.


Judging from the talent that Chu Yunfan had displayed, he might become a true disciple in the future. If that happened, then these people would ascend to heaven. Although it was a little self-deprecating to say this, this was a rare chance for them. After all, not everyone had the talent to take charge of their own affairs.


However, they were all a step too late and could only submit to You Chuyun. There were hundreds of people who needed to be screened, which made You Chuyun extremely busy. Everything that You Chuyun had was given to him by Chu Yunfan. Of course, he did not dare to do things careless. However, he was an old disciple of the Flying Celestials. He usually did not show his strength, but he knew many things like the back of his hand.


After three days of screening, ten people were selected, and the weakest among these ten was an ordinary intermediate Observer. There were three powerful late Observers among these people. These disciples could be considered the best among the inner disciples. Their cultivation was even higher than Chu Yunfan’s. Of course, if they were to only calculate their combat strength, they could not be compared to Chu Yunfan.


“This is good.” Chu Yunfan looked at the information. Of course, these disciples were not the best, but the best disciples would never consider joining Chu Yunfan. However, this was enough for him.


“You’ve worked hard. Please help me hand out these pills to them as a greeting gift from me. Also, you have to train more. I’m going to be posted to work somewhere soon. At that time, I won’t be able to do without your help. Your current cultivation level is not enough,” Chu Yunfan said.


“Yes, Senior Chu,” You Chuyun said excitedly.


From Chu Yunfan’s words, it seemed like he was going to train You Chuyun to become an elite disciple. With his talent, he may never become an elite disciple in his lifetime. It seemed like there was only a layer of difference, but it was difficult for many people. It was not impossible for him to enter the Abstract Interpretation Stage, but after the age limit, he would be removed from the ranks of disciples and become a manager in the sect. These people were all older than a certain age and didn’t have much potential. The Flying Celestials naturally wouldn’t let them waste resources.


Originally, this was likely to be his ending, but with Chu Yunfan’s help, everything was completely different. He could break through before he reached the age limit and become an elite disciple. Then, his ident.i.ty and status would be completely different.


However, You Chuyun realized that he was unable to see through Chu Yunfan. If he had felt that he could previously touch the edge of Chu Yunfan, then he felt that Chu Yunfan’s gaze was even more profound now. It was as profound as the universe.


He knew that his feeling was not wrong. There was only one possibility, and that was that Chu Yunfan’s cultivation had improved again. However, he didn’t suspect anything. He was only happy for Chu Yunfan. Chu Yunfan was now in the same boat as him. Chu Yunfan was the captain. Of course, the stronger Chu Yunfan was, the better for him.


At the same time, he was amazed by Chu Yunfan’s improvement. It had only been a few days, but his cultivation had improved to such a level.


Chu Yunfan gave You Chuyun another ten of the pills that he had given him last time and asked him to give them to the inner disciples who were willing to rely on him. Chu Yunfan had never been stingy with his own people. Moreover, he needed these people to help him control the army in the future. Of course, he couldn’t make the horse run and not feed it.


After You Chuyun left, Chu Yunfan reported his wish to join the army to the sect. Then, he waited for the a.s.signment from the Imperial Court. He entered the Mountain River Diagram again and waited while consolidating his current cultivation.


In the Imperial City of Grand Xia, in the reception room of Marquis Huntian’s residence, a young man in a purple robe sat on the main seat. His face was as dark as water, but he had a dignified aura that ordinary people could not reach.


Before him was a middle-aged man in official robes. He looked at the young man with a respectful expression. There was no other reason than that this young man in the purple robe was none other than Li Qianyuan, Marquis Huntian who had led the army to recover the Violet Thunder Prefecture.


Li Qianyuan was currently in the limelight in the Imperial Court of Grand Xia. It was said that he was deeply trusted by the king. He had been allowed to lead the army to seize the Violet Thunder Prefecture. This was clearly a matter of gilding and giving credit. Many people fought for it, but in the end, it fell into Li Qianyuan’s hands.


One could imagine how much he was doted on.


In particular, his cultivation was extremely powerful at such a young age. He might even have the chance to become a duke in the future. Right now, countless officials in the Imperial Court wanted to become his underling but could not find a way.


“Marquis, there’s news about Chu Yunfan whom you asked me to pay special attention to. The Flying Celestials has reported that he wishes to join the army. According to the usual practice, the elite disciples of the ten great sects can become a battalion commander and lead five hundred people,” the middle-aged official reported.


Generally speaking, such appointments were under the authority of the Ministry of War. Even these famous marquises had no way to interfere. However, this matter only involved an ordinary elite disciple of the Flying Celestials, so it was not a big deal. Such elite disciples came in countless numbers every year. They could be completely dealt with without anyone knowing.


At the mention of Chu Yunfan, the muscles on Li Qianyuan’s face twitched slightly. He thought of how Chu Yunfan plotted against him and finally let him escape. It was a great humiliation that he had never experienced in his life.


He had been a martial arts prodigy since he was born. When he was very young, he had a fortuitous encounter and obtained an ancient inheritance. He entered the army at a young age and became the Marquis Huntian of Grand Xia in less than ten years. His life had been smooth sailing. The only time he had fallen was at the hands of Chu Yunfan. How could he not hate this Chu Yunfan who had humiliated him and forced him to return to the capital to recuperate for half a year?


“He sure is brave. I’ll find him a good position from which he’ll never come back from!”
