Everyone was stunned by the Yellow Springs Peak Master's words.
"What kind of mushroom is a Glazed Mushroom Emperor?"
"It's probably still a Glazed Mushroom!"
"It must be one hell of a Glazed Mushroom! It has 'Emperor' in its name, after all!"
The Outer Sect Disciples looked at one another. None of them had ever heard of a Glazed Mushroom Emperor.
After a moment of excitement, the Yellow Springs Peak Master quickly put the Glazed Mushroom Emperor away.
He struggled to contain his excitement as he looked down at Fang Chen, his gaze softening at once.
Fang Chen looked at the Yellow Springs Peak Master and asked, "Peak Master, was that giant mushroom a Glazed Mushroom?"
The Yellow Springs Peak Master nodded slightly. "Yes. It's a mutated Glazed Mushroom!"
"That's great!"
Fang Chen was overjoyed. He asked, "Then how many points can I exchange that giant mushroom for?"
"How many points?"
The Yellow Springs Peak Master froze. He had no idea how many points to award Fang Chen. To the Glazed Sword Sect, the Glazed Mushroom Emperor was a priceless treasure.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "The Glazed Mushroom Emperor is priceless. I don't know how to calculate its point value, but one thing is certain: your result puts you in first place in this competition!"
"I'm first?"
Fang Chen's eyes widened. Barely containing his joy, he asked, "Does that mean I can become an Inner Disciple?"
"Yes!"
The Yellow Springs Peak Master nodded. With a gentle wave of his hand, he returned Fang Chen's Glazed Paper Crane.
"That's great!"
Fang Chen leaped up in excitement, caught the Glazed Paper Crane, and tucked it into his robe.
"Damn it, that guy's actually become an Inner Disciple!"
"I thought he didn't even have a Spiritual Root!"
"Hmph. Only idiots
