Young Sect Master Position
The Body Sect hall of the Noumenon Sect.
Unlike the usual quiet atmosphere, the elders who were originally sent to the Heavenly Soul Empire on business, and even those who rarely appeared in the sect and were in seclusion for cultivation, had all gathered here.
The one sitting in the first seat was naturally the Sect Master Du Busi, and the second seat was occupied by the Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng.
Afterwards, the elders of the Body Sect, according to their respective cultivation levels, sat in the hall.
Everyone looked serious, because they had all returned to their sect after receiving a notification from the Golden Body Douluo yesterday, and they also roughly understood why Du Busi had summoned them all.
At this moment, everyone knew that Du Busi was probably going to finalize the selection of the Young Sect Master of the Body Sect.
However, what puzzled some of the elders who did not follow Du Busi to the Shrek Academy was...
Du Busi's eldest disciple Long Aotian, stood behind him. Judging from his harmonious aura, his Soul Power and Spiritual Power flowed in perfect unison with every gesture and breath, clearly indicating that he had entered the realm of Unity of Heaven and Man.
However, beside Long Aotian, there was a very young-looking boy whose aura was almost on par with Long Aotian, one of the best young talents of the Body Sect. No, to be precise, he was even better than Long Aotian.
The combination and operation of his Soul Power and Spiritual Power were more perfect, which was obviously only possible after reaching the cultivation level of Unity of Heaven and Man. Judging from the Soul Power of this young man, he was only Soul Elder.
Moreover, most of the elders in the sect had never seen this person before.
This is rather strange, because based on people's previous understanding of the Du Busi.
Since his eldest disciple Long Aotian, has reached the level of Unity of Heaven and Man at such a young age, he is bound to be the next Young Sect Master.
Judging from this situation, could there be someone else? Could it be this unfamiliar young man?
"Alright, all the elders have arrived, so I won't waste any more words." Du Busi's voice rang out, and everyone was invigorated.
"Some time ago, I, along with Jin Peng and a group of elders, went to the Shrek Academy and spent a lot of resources to obtain a disciple with Body Martial Soul. I believe that all of you elders are aware of this matter."
Everyone nodded in agreement. After all, even the elders who were outside or in seclusion were aware of the mobilization of resources within the sect during that period.
"And this disciple, whom I brought back at great cost, is my Final Disciple, Huo Yuhao, and today is the day he formally becomes my disciple."
"At the same time, today is also the day when I, Du Busi, will establish the next Young Sect Master for my Body Sect!"
"The reason I invited you elders back this time is to bear witness to the future rise of my Body Sect!"
As soon as Du Busi finished speaking, Huo Yuhao walked directly to the center of the main hall and, according to the rules of the Body Sect, performed the full apprenticeship ceremony to Du Busi.
Although the Body Sect acts according to its own likes and dislikes, and is extremely united internally with its disciples as close as family, it is still a sect after all.
In such formal settings, where there is a clear distinction between superiors and inferiors, and a proper order of seniority, the apprenticeship process is still indispensable.
The apprenticeship ceremony of the Body Sect is quite ancient, and the whole process takes quite a while.
The apprenticeship ceremony only ended after Huo Yuhao completed all the procedures and offered tea to Du Busi, who then drank the tea in one Du Busi.
Immediately afterwards, the other elders congratulated Du Busi also stood up, and a flash of light appeared in his Storage Soul Tool.
A crystal-clear, silver-white Head Soul Bone appeared in his palm.
Seeing this, some of the elders around them twitched. The Soul Power fluctuations contained in this Soul Bone indicated that it was definitely a Soul Bone that had reached the level of 100,000-Year. Moreover, it was Head Soul Bone that was second only to the torso bone. This could be called an unparalleled treasure in the Soul Master World.
Du Busi said, "This Head Soul Bone was taken from a 100,000-Year Evil Eye Tyrant with pure Spiritual Attribute."
"In every aspect, it is quite compatible with your Martial Soul, Yuhao. This is the gift I will give you after you become my disciple."
"I hope that you will make great progress on your cultivation path, carry on the great legacy of my sect, and spread the fame of my true self."
"Yes, Master's teachings, I will keep them in mind and never slacken."
Under the control of the Du Busi's power, the Soul Bone fell into Huo Yuhao's hands and was then stored in his Storage Soul Tool.
Huo Yuhao was also somewhat surprised, and at the same time realized that Du Busi's departure a few days ago was probably to go to the Evil Soul Beast Forest.
It can only be said that the treatment at the Shrek Academy and at the Body Sect is indeed completely different. After all, for the Body Sect, all the disciples they cultivate will become part of the sect's strength in the future.
As for the Shrek Academy, its lengthy evaluation period is probably enough to stifle most of the geniuses, causing them to become just ordinary people.
After all, in the path of cultivation, if you are fast at one step, you will be fast at every step. The time wasted during the probationary period is often enough to determine the upper limit that a person can achieve in their entire life.
Seeing this, all the elders suddenly realized why Du Busi was so generous, actually giving his disciple a 100,000-Year -old Soul Bone as a gift.
The reason why Du Busi meant that he wanted to hand over the position of the future sect Sect Master to this young man, instead of simply holding the ceremony of accepting Huo Yuhao as a disciple and the ceremony of appointing Long Aotian as the Young Sect Master on the same day, as they had previously thought.
Moreover, observing Long Aotian's eyes at this moment, there seemed to be little resentment in them; on the contrary, they were quite calm, or rather, too calm, even to the point of being numb.
Some of the elders hadn't had time to process the information in Du Busi's words, as it was quite sudden, when they heard Du Busi continue speaking.
"After my verification, Yuhao is the only person in thousands of years, apart from the First Generation Body Douluo the Ancestral Master, who has completed the Golden-tier Second Awakening Body Martial Soul Master after being born with innate awakening."
"At the same time, after entering the sect, Yuhao broke the record of the fastest attainment of the Unity of Unity of Heaven and Man realm in our Body Sect, which was set by the First Generation Body Douluo and has been unmatched by anyone in later generations."
"Therefore, I have directly designated Yuhao as the Young Sect Master of my Body Sect. Elders, please strictly discipline your subordinates after you return. I do not wish to hear any discussion about this matter within the sect."
Du Busi's repeated words struck the hearts of the elders like bolts of lightning.
Everyone was speechless for Jiujiu, and they understood why Long Aotian, the eldest disciple Du Busi, did not react much when he learned that his junior brother, who had just joined the sect, had replaced him as the Young Sect Master Body Sect, which was originally a sure thing.
It's estimated that the person who was shocked first was Long Aotian, the eldest disciple of Du Busi. With such talent and potential, could Huo Yuhao be the reincarnation of the First Generation Body Douluo?
Otherwise, how could someone achieve such an astonishing feat at such a young age? Even those who have attained godhood and whose records are still available would probably not be as accomplished as this new Young Sect Master at such an age.
The Body Sect already revered Du Busi, the Body Douluo, and with Huo Yuhao's demonstrated talent, the succession of the Young Sect Master was quickly recognized by all the elders. After all, Huo Yuhao's talent was beyond what could be described as mere genius.
At the same time, they were also convinced by Du Busi's decision to give Huo Yuhao the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone as a gift.
At this moment, an elder suggested, "Sect Master, since all the elders are here, why don't we take this opportunity to organize the sect's Title Holder to go overseas for a collective hunting operation?"
"It has been almost a hundred years since the last mass hunt, and now the sects are lacking cultivation resources produced by top-tier Soul Beast."
"Moreover, our trip here is just in time to gather the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone that the Young Sect Master can equip in advance, so that we can pave the way for his future cultivation."
Upon hearing this, many elders responded enthusiastically.
Du Busi coughed lightly, and the entire hall fell silent instantly. "Alright, everyone stop arguing. The collective hunting plan will naturally come, but not now."
"Yuhao's cultivation is still too weak. Even with his exceptional talent, absorbing a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone would be enough."
"I will make arrangements once his cultivation improves. For now, my Body Sect has other important matters to attend to, but I won't discuss them here."
"Alright, everyone disperse. Head to the sect's banquet hall. I'm in a good mood today, so don't spoil the fun. A banquet has been set up in the sect so that all the disciples can have some fun."
Du Busi simply let the matter drop. If it were before heading to Mingdu, perhaps Du Busi would have still been in the mood for it.
Leading a team to hunt Sea Soul Beast is also a way to replenish the sect with top-notch cultivation resources.
However, after witnessing the terror of Soul Tool, Du Busi began to reflect on his past rejection of Soul Tool and how the Body Sect should develop Soul Tool in the future.
Ultimately, Du Busi concluded that it was unrealistic to change the prejudice of these veteran Soul Master against Soul Tool in their generation.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even he would probably find it hard to believe that the development of Soul Tool in the Sun Moon Empire was really that powerful.
Those elders who did not witness it firsthand, even if they obeyed his orders to forcibly accept the Soul Tool, would probably only give it a perfunctory response and not take it seriously.
Moreover, the research on Soul Tool by the Body Sect and even the entire Heavenly Soul Empire had not even begun, let alone shown any signs.
Therefore, instead of thinking about how to develop through the power of one's own sect, it would be better to just follow the old path.
Damn it! In the period following the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament, a huge bounty has appeared targeting Mingde Hall, and many forces are eager to make a move.
Although Du Busi already knew that the True Dragon Egg had been transferred from the Mingde Hall to Di Tian's hands, other forces were unaware of this, and this was a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
See if we can find an opportunity to snatch some complete Soul Tool blueprints or Soul Tool from the Mingde Hall and use them directly for our own purposes. Wouldn't that be better?
After the meeting, Du Busi left the Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng alone to give him instructions.
"Old Jin, I'm going to take the Titled Douluo from the sect to do something big next. You keep a close eye on the sect for me, especially make sure Yuhao doesn't get hurt."
Jin Peng nodded. "Sect Master, I understand."
After today's meeting, Jin Peng naturally understood Huo Yuhao's importance to the Body Sect. In fact, it could be said that as long as Huo Yuhao did not encounter any accidents, the rise of the Body Sect would be inevitable.
"By the way, you should also arrange for the Soul Douluo experts in your sect to visit the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire."
"It would be best to find out which forces have some research on Soul Tool and establish contact with them. In a while, I plan to bring people to talk to them."
Hearing this, Jin Peng was a little puzzled, but he wasn't one to talk too much, so he just nodded in agreement.
"Hmm, and there's also the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. I remember they're quite wealthy. Other forces don't matter, but we shouldn't let this one go." Du Busi narrowed his eyes.
Cooperation can only be discussed when both parties are of equal strength, but what kind of existence is the Body Sect?
Of the three kingdoms that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, apart from the Shrek Academy, which other force possessed a powerhouse at the level of a Level 98 Super Douluo?
Although the Body Sect suffered significant resource losses due to the mismanagement of that old bastard Mu En, they always managed to recoup their losses from other sects.
It is true that Shrek Academy was second only to the Sun Moon Empire in research on Soul Tool among the three kingdoms of the Douluo Continent.
But even a broken ship has some nails; by consolidating these scattered small forces, we can eventually gather something that's not too bad.
If robbing Mingde Hall fails, then this will be considered a second-line arrangement.
If the robbery of the Mingde Hall is successful, then Jin Peng's actions can be considered as paving the way for the alliance of the three original forces of the Douluo Continent, and will not be a useless move.
As for the training of Huo Yuhao, Du Busi originally planned to wait until he returned from the Evil Soul Beast Forest before making arrangements.
However, since Huo Yuhao has already reached the point of Unity of Heaven and Man, then to be honest, it doesn't matter if we just let him grow up freely from now on. When the time is right, we can just pass on the Seed of Inheritance and the Body Secret Scroll to Huo Yuhao.
After all, compared to Huo Yuhao's ridiculously high level of cultivation, what Huo Yuhao lacks now is his own cultivation level.
What he needs is time and resources to transform his talent and level of understanding into real strength.
As for the fourth Soul Ring, with Jin Peng in the sect, it's more than enough for him to arrange it for Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao is still far from reaching level 50 in Soul Power, and the fifth Soul Ring, Du Busi, has already been prepared for Huo Yuhao.
Once his Soul Power reaches the required level, he can try to inherit the Seed of Inheritance and then absorb it.
