Chapter 713: Chapter 663: Disciples Must Give Their All
On this platform opened by the combined efforts of many strong individuals, there are mountains, rivers, flowers and trees, deserts, oceans, and various things. Every element is present, making it resemble a blessed land or a forbidden place.
This platform was specially constructed to accommodate these cultivators’ competition. It is extremely convenient for any cultivator, allowing them to take advantage of the terrain to unleash their strength.
Even atop this platform, Pei Xuanjing and many of the elites combined their power, permeating it with their understanding of Taoist skills, so that after the victors emerge, they can gain their understanding of Taoist skills as a reward.
On the platform, representatives from all factions took their seats. Not only did all the cultivators above the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm who were just in the great hall appear, but ordinary cultivators also came here to watch the competition.
After all, for these cultivators, if there is a chance to watch the battles between these elites, if they can gain some insight, it will benefit their future cultivation a lot.
“Why not warm up the competition with some matches between the younger generation?” A top-notch figure suggested.
Considering the proposal, many of the strongest figures in attendance didn’t object and agreed to it.
After all, this was a rare opportunity. Many forces in the world seldom have this sort of occasion to gather together, letting the disciples from various sects spar with each other was also a good option.
These top-notch figures already stand at the peak of Heaven and Earth, not to mention ordinary cultivators, even many cultivators of the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm wouldn’t be memorable to them if they do not have unique characteristics.
But now it’s different, the world has revived, and countless prodigies are emerging in this golden age. Perhaps among these seemingly insignificant cultivators, there are future powerhouses, so it’s better to let these junior disciples compete and see if there are any standout talents that are worth their special attention.
“That wouldn’t be a bad idea.” Pei Xuanjing laughed.
He naturally didn’t intend to refuse these top figures’ suggestion.
Upon seeing Pei Xuanjing’s reaction, the other elites flashed a hint of surprise in their eyes, but didn’t comment.
Pei Xuanjing didn’t bother about their thoughts at all.
The younger generations these strong figures speak of, or for these figures who have lived for thousands of years, even the younger generation, are practicants who have cultivated for hundreds to nearly a thousand years.
The life of a cultivator is lengthy, and if one does not have extraordinary talent, it is normal to not reach the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm after cultivating for hundreds of years.
However, not of these practitioners can be compared to Pei Xuanjing who is currently seated high above them on the platform.
Young and famous, suddenly ascending to a high position, one must undoubtedly have an arrogant air, this is inevitable.
These powerful figures who have lived thousands of years have seen a lot of such cases, but Pei Xuanjing completely exceeded their expectations.
According to logic, Pei Xuanjing, a heroic figure who got into the top class of Heaven and Earth in less than a hundred years, could have been domineering, arrogant, dismissive of everything, and supremely condescending. This would be considered natural by many cultivators.
From the beginning till the end, however, Pei Xuanjing’s demonstrated maturity, indifference, and calmness took them all by surprise.
After all, who would have thought that although he currently seems underage, after several lifetimes of experience through projections, Pei Xuanjing has already lived many lifetimes, while he can’t compare to these top figures, it is enough to diminish his arrogance and make him indifferent to many things.
“In that case, if there are outstanding individuals, I can allow them to cultivate in the Longevity World for a year as a reward.” Pei Xuanjing added a bonus to the cultivators’ competition.
For cultivators below the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, if they can practice in the Longevity World created by Pei Xuanjing for a period of time, it will definitely be greatly beneficial to their cultivation.
Pei Xuanjing’s reward could not be more generous. Seeing him do so, the other powerhouses naturally had to show their hand as well.
Master of Mystiq Sky promised a spirit pill, the Ancestor Celestial Master promised a talisman that he had personally written, and the Sword Sect powerhouse promised a divine sword…
With just one move by Pei Xuanjing, the importance of this competition significantly increased. If they could receive such rewards, these cultivators, even cultivators of top-notch powers, would definitely crave for them.
After that, the various major forces sent messages to their disciples, telling them to do their best without losing face for their sect.
“If any of you are interested, you can also participate in this. It’s not about obtaining the bonus, but sparring with practitioners from the same generation is a valuable experience.” Pei Xuanjing also sent a message to many cultivators of the Taoist school.
“I will do my best and not disgrace you, master.” Pang Hong immediately made his pledge to Pei Xuanjing.
Pang Hong was clear. As the direct disciple of Pei Xuanjing, he definitely had to participate. Countless people would watch his every move, and he had to give his all. Otherwise, he would disgrace his master.
“Don’t worry, you do not need to care about how others view you. Just be authentic, and everything will be fine. I don’t care about other people’s opinions either.” Pei Xuanjing indicated that Pang Hong didn’t need to take this so seriously.
At his level, others’ comments and views were meaningless to Pei Xuanjing, and he wouldn’t care about them.
He only has two disciples, and one of them, Zhu Houji, barely counts. The only true direct disciple is Pang Hong. Not only are they deeply connected, having known each other from insignificance until now, Pang Hong’s years of relentless effort and hardship have been recognized by Pei Xuanjing. He is very satisfied with his disciple and won’t change his perception due to any other matter.
“Yes, I understand!” Pang Hong nodded and consented.
However, Pei Xuanjing knew that deep down, Pang Hong hadn’t changed his mind. His disciple was very stubborn when it came to upholding his dignity.
Of course, Pei Xuanjing didn’t plan on trying to persuade him further. He clearly understood the capabilities of his own disciple – even though there might be a gap between him and direct disciples trained by other top-notch powers, it wasn’t an insurmountable gap.
Moreover, what if he loses? It’s just a momentary victory or defeat. As long as he is willing to practice diligently, he will eventually catch up. After all, Pei Xuanjing only has this one disciple and he would definitely provide him with help.
