Is this going out to take disciples, or to stock up?

"I wondered who it was."

"What, you've been out for almost half a year, and you've already taken in disciples?"

True Lord Yuntian held his teacup, sniffed the tea's aroma, glanced at Hua Yunfei, and chuckled leisurely.

Hua Yunfei sat down below True Lord Yuntian and said, "Uncle Sect Master, please take a look at how these few are."

He pointed at Lin Yang and the other four.

"Oh?"

True Lord Yuntian looked at Lin Yang and the five with curiosity. His sharp eyes immediately saw that they seemed to have extraordinary potential.

However, he needed to check them personally to determine their specific potential.

He asked, "Are these five all new disciples you've taken in?"

Hua Yunfei chuckled, "Uncle Sect Master, you know I don't like going out, and I especially don't want to get involved in too much karma. How could I have taken in so many?"

"This one is my second disciple, Huang Xuan."

Hua Yunfei pointed at Huang Xuan.

Huang Xuan immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Uncle Grand Sect Master."

"Mm."

True Lord Yuntian nodded with a smile and asked, "Can you tell the Sect Master, what tier of potential do you have?"

Huang Xuan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "This disciple is untalented, barely reaching Sacred Tier Low Grade potential."

"Mm... indeed untalented..."

"Eh?"

True Lord Yuntian put down his teacup, stood up, and looked at Huang Xuan in surprise. "What did you just say your potential was?"

"This disciple has Sacred Tier Low Grade potential."

True Lord Yuntian's eyes widened. With a delighted expression, he walked forward, patted Huang Xuan's shoulder, and roared with laughter:

"Good, good! The future of my Kaoshan Sect is promising!"

"First it was Bu Fan, and now it's you. My Kaoshan Sect already has two disciples with Sacred Tier potential openly."

True Lord Yuntian looked at Hua Yunfei and said, "You kid, how are you so lucky? You took in two disciples, and both have Sacred Tier potential."

"It's just luck."

Hua Yunfei smiled faintly.

True Lord Yuntian shook his head and chuckled. He then looked at Lin Yang and the other four and asked, "And who are they?"

Hua Yunfei replied, "These four are disciples I scouted for the sect. I expect Uncle Sect Master will like them."

"You're thoughtful. Your other uncles are so focused on cultivation that even if they go out for years, they don't bring back a single egg."

True Lord Yuntian cursed with a laugh and then asked, "And what potential do they have? I know your standards are high, kid. Anyone you fancy must at least have Heaven Tier potential, right?"

Hua Yunfei's lips curled up. "Except for the girl, who has Heaven Tier Middle Grade potential, the other three have Dao Tier potential."

Hearing this, True Lord Yuntian looked at Hua Yunfei. Seeing that he wasn't joking, he turned his gaze to Lin Yang and the other four.

"Are you cheating, kid?"

True Lord Yuntian circled all five, including Huang Xuan, three times to the left and three times to the right, staring at them like precious treasures.

Even Huang Xuan started to feel a prickle on his back. Does this Sect Master seem much less simple than he appears on the surface?

"May I examine them?"

True Lord Yuntian said to Lin Yang, Mu Qingqing, Tang Yi, and Tang Er.

He was somewhat disbelieving. Heaven Tier Middle Grade potential was one thing, but Dao Tier potential was hard to come by.

Hua Yunfei managed to find three at once, and his own disciple was of Sacred Tier potential.

Did he go out to recruit disciples, or to stock up?

The four nodded. "Uncle Grand Sect Master, please."

True Lord Yuntian extended his hand, and his powerful divine sense enveloped the four.

"So strong!"

Lin Yang and the others widened their eyes, their expressions filled with shock.

Under True Lord Yuntian's divine sense, they felt like a lone boat on a vast ocean, liable to capsize at any moment!

Soon, True Lord Yuntian withdrew his hand, his eyes filled with utter shock.

Mu Qingqing's Heaven Tier Middle Grade potential had already reached the standard of a true disciple. The other three were even more terrifying.

Lin Yang, Dao Tier Top Grade cultivation potential!

Tang Yi, Dao Tier Mid Grade cultivation aptitude!

Tang Er, Dao Tier Mid Grade cultivation aptitude!

Moreover, his divine sense had already sensed that at the dantian of the three individuals, there were special and profound Dao principles fluctuations.

That is the origin of their physique!

This indicates that the three people before him not only have extremely high aptitude but also possess special physiques!

Did this kid really go out to stock up?

Are geniuses that easy to find?

Hua Yunfei said with a smile, "Do you believe me now? As you know, I never brag."

True Lord Yuntian said with a beaming smile, "Excellent, excellent. The future of my Kaoshan Sect is promising."

"Master and Martial Uncle Xuancheng will be very happy when they know about this. Perhaps they might even break tradition and take these three as disciples."

True Lord Yuntian picked up his teacup again and looked at Hua Yunfei, saying:

"You have truly put in effort this time. With these four, plus your two disciples, the Kaoshan Sect will undoubtedly become even stronger in the future."

Hua Yunfei nodded, "I know, and this is still just on the surface."

"Hahaha!"

"You understand me best, kid!"

"A tall tree catches the wind. It's enough for my Kaoshan Sect to have some influence in the Eastern Domain; there's no need to be overly competitive."

True Lord Yuntian laughed heartily, clearly very pleased.

To gain four potential true disciples of genius caliber at once, how could he not be happy?

Moreover...

True Lord Yuntian took a sip of tea, his gaze following the rim of the cup as he glanced at Lin Yang, and said with a slight smile, "What is your name?"

Lin Yang quickly replied, "This disciple's name is Lin Yang, 'Lin' from forest and 'Yang' from sunrise."

"Good, a fine name."

True Lord Yuntian said, "Your aptitude is already sufficient to serve as the Holy Son of the Kaoshan Sect. However, the Eastern Domain is about to undergo great changes, so my requirements have also increased."

"To become the Holy Son of the Kaoshan Sect, your aptitude must reach Sacred Tier Low Grade."

"You are still a little short."

Hearing this, Lin Yang's gaze dimmed. Although he was very disappointed, it was determined by his innate condition, and there was nothing he could do.

"However."

True Lord Yuntian's tone shifted:

"If you perform well in the future, I have a way to help you complete your origin. It will be at least stronger than it is now, and your aptitude may then break through to Sacred Tier!"

Lin Yang immediately bowed, excitedly saying, "This disciple will definitely do his best to serve the sect!"

True Lord Yuntian nodded, "I'm telling you all this to give you some motivation. Coming to the Kaoshan Sect will absolutely not disappoint you."

Hua Yunfei was surprised by True Lord Yuntian's words and said, "It seems that even though I've become a Peak Master, I still know too little about the Kaoshan Sect."

He didn't even know that the Kaoshan Sect had a way to complete the origin of a physique!

This was something he himself had no way of doing.

Or rather, it was very difficult.

A deficient origin is innate, the Dao principles are incomplete, and the physique's hidden treasures cannot be opened, naturally preventing the true power of the physique from being unleashed.

Every special physique has its own exclusive hidden treasures. Once opened, one will gain the powerful Dao techniques exclusive to that physique.

Therefore, if Lin Yang could complete his origin, his future achievements would be very high.

He might even be able to lie down in the depths of the ancestral tomb in the future!

True Lord Yuntian smiled mysteriously, "If you are willing to become the Sect Master, you will know all the secrets of the Kaoshan Sect."

Hua Yunfei had outstanding aptitude, breaking through to the Heavenly Human Realm at the young age of a hundred, and was also very intelligent.

If he were to serve as the Sect Master of the Kaoshan Sect, True Lord Yuntian would be very relieved.

True Lord Yuntian had even discussed this matter with Hua Yunfei's father, Hua Cangqiong, the former Peak Master of Dao Origin Peak.

At that time, Hua Yunfei was only twenty years old, and True Lord Yuntian intended to groom him as the future Sect Master.

But Hua Cangqiong had refused without hesitation.

The reason was: "Can you pick somewhere else to exploit? Is it interesting to stare at my Hua family every day?"

"Are there not enough Hua family ancestors lying in the ancestral tomb?"

"Stop talking. If you push it any further, I'll fight you!"

"You know you can't beat me!"

Hua Yunfei shook his head and chuckled, "I won't do it. Knowing the sect's secrets isn't important. I have a sense of things in my heart, and that's enough to feel secure."
