Seeing that Fang Qianyuan still looked a little puzzled, Sun Zhuo explained further. Take what he had done in the Flowing Cloud Grotto, for instance: had a powerful rogue cultivator done the same, it would have been no more than a passing sensation. Once the various parties had discussed it, they would tacitly stop bringing it up.
This was not to say that rogue cultivators could never produce a genius who stood head and shoulders above all other heroes. Rather, even if one appeared, there would be limits to how far his fame spread. No one would actively publicize his deeds, let alone sing his praises. As time passed, his influence would still fall short.
But with Fang Qianyuan, how could the sect possibly let such an opportunity slip by?
This was precisely the material they needed to build him into the "Righteous Path's Top Young Expert." While it was still fresh, they had to spread the word, carrying it across the Southern Wilds and even throughout the world.
To do so, however, Fang Qianyuan himself had to possess exceptional abilities. Once he became famous, he would represent the sect's reputation and caliber. Those of insufficient standing would never get near him, while those of higher standing would mostly be powerful figures from aristocratic clans, geniuses from other great sects, and top experts. All manner of probes and challenges would follow one after another, until he had weathered every test and firmly established his reputation.
Fang Qianyuan did not particularly mind when he heard this.
He had confidence in his strength and feared neither probes nor challenges. In fact, he even felt a faint sense of anticipation.
"Oh, right. You'll soon be taking up a post in the Heavenly Dao Alliance. Master had someone bring you some news," Sun Zhuo
