753: Chapter 225_5 753: Chapter 225_5 Moreover, an Ancient Immortal Body, when at the same cultivation realm, is always the most top-notch.
Of course, the premise is that the Ancient Immortal Body must apprentice themselves to Peak Master Cao.
If they’re willing to invest resources, they could also help an Ancient Immortal Body break through to the Immortal Bridge Period, even the Core Formation Stage wouldn’t be a problem.
However, to become a Golden Core, to achieve Ten Different Phenomena Golden Elixir Great Perfection, that would require Peak Master Cao’s involvement.
Instantly, everyone turned their gaze towards Cao Zhen.
Some even started to speak up, “Congratulations to the Sect Leader, for acquiring another excellent disciple.”
“Congratulations to the Sect Leader!”
An Ancient Immortal Body, which is even rarer than top-level Immortal Bodies—if it were another Immortal Sect, acquiring an Ancient Immortal Body wouldn’t be much,
But for the Hundred Peaks Sect, acquiring an Ancient Immortal Body meant adding another top-level expert with a Ten Different Phenomena Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
This was something to be congratulated on during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth when receiving an Ancient Immortal Body.
As Cao Zhen listened to everyone’s congratulations, he was overwhelmed.
What do you mean by congratulating me?
When did I agree to take on a disciple?
They were assigning disciples to him out of nowhere.
He was already struggling to take care of his five disciples; taking on another would be too much to handle.
“This…
everyone, the disciples still need to attend the academy, it’s still early days, don’t be too hasty in making decisions.
Moreover, in choosing an academy, the decision must be up to the disciple, not us,” he said.
“Yes, the Sect Leader is right,”
“Absolutely.”
“Sect Leader, all the disciples have now been arranged.
May I ask if you have any further instructions?”
Cao Zhen waved his hand dismissively.
Instructions?
What more could he instruct?
“Everyone go back to your respective peaks and continue your cultivation,” he said.
Soon, the Five-Element Pill Ground returned to its usual calm.
Cao Zhen, however, instructed Little Beiyan to go to Four Treasures Peak and bring back some medicinal herbs.
He was about to start concocting pills for that simple-minded boy Little Beiyan mentioned.
It was just a pill to restore normalcy, and moreover, for a child.
If it was for a grown young person, it might be somewhat troublesome, but for a child, such a pill could be made with ease.
After all, the herbs needed weren’t particularly precious, and he didn’t feel the need to open the Hidden Treasure Immortal Palace for this.
After Little Beiyan delivered the herbs, he started concocting the pills he needed for the congealing of his ten Golden Cores while also beginning a batch of Qi Zhi Pills.
Quickly, a day passed by, and Little Beiyan arrived at the Five-Element Pill Ground to collect a bottle of Qi Zhi Pills, then headed towards the academy.
Heavenly Swan Academy!
Within the Hundred Peaks Sect, there are numerous academies, and indeed, there is a gap between them.
Even though the sect allocated the same resources to each academy, differences in deans, and teaching staff naturally led to discrepancies.
Among them, Heavenly Swan Academy was the most top-tier academy within the Hundred Peaks Sect’s academies.
The three children whom Little Beiyan valued and recruited were all sent to Heavenly Swan Academy.
Initially, when Heavenly Swan Academy accepted these three children, it made the other academies’ deans green with envy.
Little Beiyan made her way to Heavenly Swan Academy and, being a Ten Different Phenomena Golden Elixir Great Perfection powerhouse, naturally received accompaniment from the academy’s dean himself.
However, the more Little Beiyan observed, the more she noticed the dean’s expression was oddly perplexing, as if he had something on his mind yet hesitated to speak.
Little Beiyan quickly realized something and said, “Dean, what’s the matter?
You can speak frankly.
I know you’re grateful that I sent three talents to your academy, but don’t overpraise me.
If you want to offer something nice, just give it to me directly.”
The dean fell silent.
Offer something nice?
He would like to give something, but how much could he really offer?
Would anything he gave even catch her eye?
Moreover, the current Sect Leader is your master, and the elder in charge at the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace is your senior sister.
Would you even dare accept something from me?
Also, offer something nice?
I now want to give you something nice, to take that person away, if that’s acceptable.
The dean inwardly grumbled, but his face showed a troubled expression as he said, “Ah, those three children are indeed talented, especially Zhu Peng.
I’ve never seen a child of his size possess such incredible strength, greater than even grown adults, even greater than some cultivators!”
“That’s because he has Innate Divine Strength, but stronger than a cultivator?
Surely that’s not possible, is it?” Little Beiyan questioned the dean, full of disbelief.
The dean nodded with certainty, “His strength isn’t as great as someone with four cultivation platforms, but he’s stronger than those with three.”
“You’ve measured this so accurately?” Little Beiyan asked in amazement, commenting as they walked, “Have you all been comparing strengths with young Zhu Peng?
You all are adults and cultivators, though only with congealed cultivation platforms, not even an Immortal Bridge, but still cultivators.
It seems unfair to go against a child.”
“We didn’t compete with him in strength; he…” the dean sighed, his voice laced with helplessness, “Yesterday, on his first day here, he started a fight, with six other children, no less.
Then a teacher, who happened to have a three-platform cultivation base, tried to suppress Zhu Peng but couldn’t hold him down…”
“And then it took another with a four-platform base to subdue him?” Little Beiyan asked incredulously, “But isn’t that wrong?
Your academy’s boys should have trained too.
Zhu Peng hasn’t had any training, and although he’s naturally strong, how could he fight six on one?”
