Cao Youqian: Junior Sister, You're Weaker, so You Take the Seeded Spot

"Elder Hua, are you sure I can choose one of the ten seeded spots in the Inner Sect Competition?"

Chu Feng looked at Elder Hua in front of him and felt a little unreal, after all, he had been in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute for so many years.

The Miscellaneous Dao Institute held a very low status within the Dao-Seeking Academy, so Xiao Chen's ability to become one of the top ten true disciples was not surprising to him.

Xiao Chen earned this title himself, but he never really expected to be one of the top ten seeds of the inner sect.

Hua Chengfeng nodded. "That's right. This is the Dean's recognition of Chief Chu over the past few years. I request that Chief Chu make a decision within three days and then convey it to this elder."

He naturally wouldn't admit that it was his mistake that caused Chu Feng to miss the meeting.

"I can give Elder Hua an answer in less than three days."

Chu Feng then waved to Cao Youqian and Qin Qin, who were not far away, and said, "You two decide who wants this seeded player spot."

Upon hearing this, Cao Youqian took a step forward and said earnestly, "Master, please give this spot to Junior Sister Qin."

Qin Qin quickly said, "Senior brother, I am not as strong as you. It is more in line with the rules for you to be one of the top ten seed disciples."

You're right.

Cao Youqian turned to look at Qin Qin seriously. "That's precisely why you need this spot, Junior Sister Qin."

???

Qin Qin looked puzzled and said weakly, "Senior brother, why don't you just say I'm weak?"

This was the first time Hua Chengfeng had ever seen such a scene. In other courtyards, a seeded position would be something many people would fight tooth and nail for, so why was it different in the Miscellaneous Dao Institute?

Chu Feng smiled and said, "Then it's settled. Qin'er will become one of the top ten inner sect talents. Elder Hua, please make a note of this."

"Oh."

Hua Chengfeng snapped out of his daze and said, "Alright, Martial Niece Qin, please take out your identity token so this elder can register it."

A moment later, Elder Hua rode the Ride the Wind and disappeared into the sky.

This minor incident did not affect the relationships among the members of the Miscellaneous Dao Institute.

However, the announcement of the top ten inner sect players sparked heated discussions among many people.

Even the Profound Fire Pill King was alarmed. After reading the list, he immediately planned to rush to the Miscellaneous Dao Institute.

Fortunately, Cao Youqian came to his door in time. After the grandfather and grandson had a conversation in the study, Profound Fire Pill King smiled and saw his descendant off from the Pill Dao Institute.

As he watched Cao Youqian's departing figure, he shouted, "My grandson Youqian has the bearing of Saint!"

The disciples of the Pill Dao Institute were stunned by these words. They whispered among themselves, wondering if something was wrong with their head disciple, who, at his advanced age, had said such shameful things in public.

Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Outer Sect Grand Competition kicked off first.

Chu Feng's four disciples all successfully broke through a minor realm: Xiao Chen reached the Heavenly Origin Second Layer, Cao Youqian True Fate Fifth Layer, Qin Qin reached the True Fate Third Layer Realm, and Wang Baole reached the Dao Foundation Sixth Layer. This also added eighty years of cultivation to Chu Feng's cultivation, and now Chu Feng has more than six hundred years of cultivation.

Early this morning, Chu Feng led a group of disciples to the venue of the Outer Sect Grand Competition.

Meanwhile, in the Dao-Seeking City.

In a secluded courtyard, the Ninth Princess was in seclusion at a crucial moment in her breakthrough to the True Fate Realm.

Elder Zhao stood guard at the door, his divine sense covering an area of several miles, and no movement could escape his perception.

In the past few days, the news that Elder Zhao has heard most often is about the competition for the outer sect, inner sect, and true disciples of the Dao-Seeking Academy.

Hearing this news, Elder Zhao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It seems that the Ninth Princess will not have the chance to witness the brilliance of the geniuses of the Dao-Seeking Academy this time. However, once the princess breaks through to the True Fate Realm and passes the Dao Inquiry School's assessment, she can directly enter the inner sect.

"Master, it's so lively!"

Standing on the high platform, Wang Baole looked down at the sea of people below and couldn't help but sigh.

Cao Youqian, standing to the side, laughed and said, "This is nothing. The real spectacle will be during the Grand Master of the Disciples competition; that's when everyone will be in the spotlight."

Wang Baole looked on with anticipation and said, "I wonder when I'll be able to become a true disciple and participate in the True Disciple Grand Competition."

Chu Feng said seriously, "You should eat less, kid. You'll definitely be able to participate in the next True Disciple Competition."

???

Upon hearing this, Wang Baole tilted his head and asked, "Why won't Master let me eat more?"

Chu Feng laughed and said, "If you eat too much, you won't be a Heavenly Origin cultivator in thirty years. How will you participate in the True Disciple Grand Competition then?"

"Ah?"

Wang Baole fell silent, unsure how to respond.

"Ha ha."

A hearty laugh came from not far away. Everyone turned around and saw the Profound Fire Pill King walking over with a smile.

"Senior Profound Fire."

"Greetings, Chief Xuanhuo."

"No need for formalities, no need for formalities."

The Profound Fire Pill King chuckled and said, "Little Feng, you're still as witty and confident as ever. Hearing you say that, even I'm starting to take an interest in this young man."

Chu Feng said seriously, "Senior, please be careful. Little Fatty is not someone that just anyone can train. If you really want to train him, he'll probably eat you out of house and home in ten years."

???

Profound Fire Pill King looked at Chu Feng with a face full of question marks, and then looked at his grandson.

Cao Youqian felt the ancestor's gaze and subconsciously nodded, indicating that his master was right.

Profound Fire Pill King then laughed and said, "I was just joking with you, kid. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would take what others like?"

Chu Feng then changed the subject. "Senior is certainly not that kind of person. Which genius has the Pill Dao Institute cultivated this time?"

Profound Fire Pill King shook his head. "This time, my Pill Dao Institute really didn't have any. Those little guys almost couldn't even keep their spots in the top ten."

As the two were talking, a group of chief disciples also appeared at the Outer Sect Grand Competition venue.

Just like the previous year, the competition officially began after the draw ceremony.

Wang Baole, holding his lot, quietly waited for his turn at the fourth arena.

An hour later, the referee on the arena shouted, "Next match: Wang Baole from the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, Zhu Huifei from the Beast Taming Institute."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Baole appeared on the arena carrying a woodcutter's knife. Just as he landed, a blood wolf the size of a water buffalo leaped onto the arena.

A young man in fine clothes sat on the back of the blood wolf. He jumped down, carefully examined the Little Fatty in front of him, and said:

"Are all the people in your Miscellaneous Dao Institute this poor? They're actually using a wood-chopping knife as a weapon."

Upon hearing this, the onlookers, who were already taken aback by Wang Baole's strange attire, burst into laughter.

"Hahaha..."

Wang Baole completely ignored the laughter from below the arena and said unhurriedly, "Your Beast Taming Institute is nothing special; the beasts you bring aren't even as powerful as my dinner in Cloud Dream Marsh."

With just a casual remark, Zhu Huifei on the other side immediately broke down. His face turned ashen as he roared, "Kid, you're asking for it! Little Fatty Brother Wolf, teach this fatso a lesson!!!"

"Awoo..."

Blood Wolf let out a Lang Xiao and pounced on Wang Baole...
