Feng Jun's claim was not wrong at all. Rogue cultivators were merely a class artificially divided among cultivators.
Rogue cultivators were not accepted by mainstream society, but once someone reached the Qi Refining Stage, they were a cultivator. Their lack of confidence simply came from having no affiliation with any force and an insufficient inheritance.
If they truly had an inheritance, they were actually considered independent cultivators.
Feng Jun considered himself a rogue cultivator, but in Master Yan's eyes, he at least counted as an independent cultivator—anything could be faked, but an inheritance could not.
