831: 239_3 831: 239_3 Sacred Fire Peak, among the fire system peaks of the Hundred Peaks Sect, whether the Vermilion Bird Peak or the Azure Pheasant Peak ranked first has always been a matter of debate, but the third rank was definitely held by Sacred Fire Peak.
Moreover, the people of Sacred Fire Peak were always known for their fiery tempers.
Forget it, forget it, I won’t stoop to the level of such a brute.
Headmaster Tianhong acted as if he hadn’t heard the Peak Master of Sacred Fire Peak and instead turned his head towards the other Peak Masters with a look of helplessness, “Logically, a Taoist Boy who only joined the Academy a year ago really isn’t suitable to be sent out.
However, since all of you have come, and Liao Youdi indeed possesses talent, then I shall make arrangements for an additional assessment.”
Instantly, many of the Peak Masters laughed.
“The Headmaster is wise!”
“This is for the best.”
“Since that’s the case, we will take our leave.”
Suddenly, someone spoke up, “By the way, Headmaster, actually that Zhu Peng is also not bad, maybe arrange something for him this year too?”
Zhu Peng also possessed a High Level Immortal Body!
However, Zhu Peng’s situation was somewhat special; he was a simpleton.
In fact, they had heard that even the Sect Leader himself had personally crafted pills that failed to cure Zhu Peng.
Yet Zhu Peng truly had a High Level Immortal Body and, although he was a simpleton, in certain areas, he learned much faster than many naturally intelligent people.
If you tried to teach Zhu Peng the six arts of Immortal Cultivation, he wouldn’t learn a thing, but if you taught him how to fight, Zhu Peng learned faster than anyone else.
In the Academy, there were also teachers instructing the disciples in sword techniques, spear techniques, swordsmanship, and the like.
After all, after leaving the Academy, one must decide which peak to join.
The various peaks of the Hundred Peaks Sect each had their specialties; some excelled in swordsmanship and some in sword techniques.
One must first understand what they were good at before deciding which peak to join.
Therefore, the Academy also taught some basic Divine Skills and sword techniques, among other things.
Zhu Peng learned all of those sword and spear techniques in one go, with the stick method being his strongest skill.
Moreover, Zhu Peng possessed Innate Divine Strength.
Although Zhu Peng was a simpleton, many believed that he might achieve something significant in the future, after all, he too was a holder of a High Level Immortal Body!
Headmaster Tianhong, upon hearing others bring up Zhu Peng, immediately nodded and agreed, “Zhu Peng indeed has talent.
I will have him take part in the assessment as well, along with that Duo Duo; I will have her join the assessment too.”
If he was letting Liao Youdi take part in the assessment, then adding Zhu Peng and Duo Duo wasn’t a big deal.
These three were the newcomers who had managed to join their Academy this year.
The personalities of these three children were also different; among them, Liao Youdi was tenacious and hardworking, Zhu Peng was a simpleton, and as for Duo Duo, she was simply a little demon head.
But for some unknown reason, these three were particularly close to each other.
And these three were a constant source of headaches for him.
Liao Youdi was somewhat better, generally not causing trouble on her own.
That Duo Duo, on the other hand, was always getting Zhu Peng into fights with other Taoist Boys.
As Headmaster, he was at a loss for what to do.
Now that you want Zhu Peng, might as well take Duo Duo along too.
“Oh, Duo Duo, huh?
We certainly wouldn’t dare to snatch her away.”
“Yes, Duo Duo, we’re afraid she’d lead us astray.”
“Let the disciples of Four Treasures Peak take care of Duo Duo.”
After getting a response, the group quickly left, but the Peak Masters didn’t leave immediately.
Instead, they went to look for other headmasters.
This time, in the recruitment of talented disciples, there weren’t only Liao Youdi and Zhu Peng but several other Immortal Bodies as well!
After searching, everyone went their separate ways, preparing to leave.
However, several of the Peak Masters, perhaps due to good relations or being from nearby peaks, gathered together.
Lan Pili was among the group of Peak Masters, and beside him stood a mature woman radiating charm.
Once she saw that apart from themselves, there was no one else around, the woman looked at Lan Pili and spoke in a low voice, “Peak Master Lan, everyone knows about your relationship with the Sect Leader, it’s surprising that you’d also want to recruit disciples while the Sect Leader is away.
Aren’t you afraid of the Sect Leader coming back and being angry with you?
After all, you and the Sect Leader went to the Capital City together that time.”
Upon hearing this, Lan Pili gently shook his head, with a look of ‘you don’t understand,’ and said to the woman, “Peak Master Huang, you don’t understand.
The Sect Leader isn’t that kind of person.
You know that I went to the Capital City with the Sect Leader, and we went through many things together on that journey.
I understand him better than you do.
The Sect Leader is wholly dedicated to our Hundred Peaks Sect.
While our current actions could be seen as scheming against the Sect Leader, it’s not really scheming.
After all, we are not trying to harm the Sect Leader or the Hundred Peaks Sect.
We are indeed recruiting disciples with the intention of properly nurturing them.
Yes, we certainly have our own interests at heart.
Our wish is to strengthen our own peaks, but as our peaks grow stronger, our Immortal Sect will also become more powerful!”
Peak Master Huang gave a coquettish smile, not commenting on Lan Pili’s words, but instead continued, “But, both Liao Youdi and Zhu Peng don’t seem to be a good fit for Lightning Peak.
As for the other talents…
The one with the Maitreya Divine Body is naturally going to a peak dedicated to Zen Cultivation, which must be ruled out first.
Then there’s Shen Liting with her Seven Yin Mystical Body; she also isn’t suitable for Lightning Peak.”
