Chapter 578: Negotiation
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio, Atlas StudiosEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio, Atlas Studios
“We fought together back then. I’ve risked my life a few times when your Xuantian Sect was in danger, but you only gave us twenty spots?”
‘Wei Yang pointed at Wang Qian‘an and was so angry that he couldn’t say a word.
If it wasn’t for him back then, this old fellow would have lost his life.
“Eriendship is friendship. If you want my life, I won’t say anything. If you want more spots, I really can’t do anything. Many disciples of the Xuantian Sect don’t have the chance to ascend the Demon Smelt Tower.”
“You’ve gone too far.”
Wei Yang gritted his teeth.
He didn’t expect the negotiations to be so difficult.
The Xuantian Sect had lowered the quota so much.
“If your disciple is a human, then are we not humans?”
Liu An rolled his eyes.
It was obvious that the Xuantian Sect wanted to go back on their word.
Eunuch Li had said that all humans could wait for the tower.
Others might not understand what Eunuch Li meant, but he did.
Eunuch Li had given them the chance to enter the Demon Smelt Tower.
If it wasn’t for them, would Eunuch Li have placed the Demon Smelt Tower outside the Xuantian Sect? Would he tell the world such a thing?
“You can’t say that! I’ll make the decision and give you two hundred spots.”
‘Wang Qian‘an slammed the table and said.
“The Demon Smelt Tower can accommodate tens of thousands of living beings at a time. You’re only giving us two hundred?”
Liu An curled his lips.
If two hundred people went in and one was kicked out, they would go in.
Basically, one batch could be changed in three days.
There were at least two thousand chances to climb the tower in a month.
That was enough!
It was enough for the disciples that the Xia Dynasty focused on nurturing.
However, there were many benefits to asking for this spot.
“Two hundred is already our bottom line. Think about it carefully. Two hundred people are missing in the Demon Smelt Tower. In a year, you will have at least a few hundred thousand chances to climb the tower.”
“Bah, do you think that the people of the Xia Dynasty are like the disciples of the Xuantian Sect? They will be kicked out as soon as they enter?”
Liu An and the other elders of the Xuantian Sect were arguing fiercely.
Outside the Xuantian Sect, other human forces also rushed over.
Seeing that it was really the Demon Smelt Tower, everyone was tempted.
“What a pity! It has nothing to do with the upper echelons of the Xuantian Sect. Otherwise, we could have a good talk.”
“There are so many of us. It’s impossible for the Xuantian Sect not to see us, right? There should be a spot for us. At least, there should be a spot for the human clans.”
“The State of Great Xia and the Xu family have already sent people in to talk.”
“What?”
Everyone was silent.
“We have to move quickly.”
“What if the Xuantian Sect ignores us?”
“Why don’t we join forces? With more people and more masters, it’s impossible for the Xuantian Sect to go back on their word. If what the Xuantian Sect said is true, with so many of us joining forces, we can obtain a lot of resources.”
Many humans who stayed outside the Xuantian Sect began to look for clans they were familiar with to join forces.
“Zhou Tian, doesn’t your Zhou family need to join forces?”
“No, we have long allied with the Xu family of the State of Great Xia.” Zhou Tian shook his head.
Zhou Tian was already at the third level of the Semi-god Realm.
He was glad that he had made the right choice.
The senior they met in the desert was the greatest benefactor of the Zhou family.
Despite some twists and turns later on.
Because the family was in a remote place like Fenglan, their foundation was not injured.
Later on, he brought the prodigies of the clan to follow Liu An’s footsteps and constantly wreaked havoc on the Continent.
The clan obtained more resources.
After becoming the clan leader, although there was no progress in his cultivation, Zhou Tian felt that this life was enough as he looked at the geniuses that surged out of the clan.
“You guys… Sigh!”
Those who said they wanted to join forces shook their heads.
‘There were only a few large families on the Continent.
Most of the results were related to the Xu family of the State of Great Xia.
The remaining few of them were still too insignificant compared to the forces of the Xuantian Sect and the State of Great Xia.
A few days later.
Other medium-sized families on the Continent appeared.
The group of native humans slowly grew larger.
“Elder Liu Qing, I didn’t expect your Liu family to come too.”
“Of course, how could our Liu family miss such a good thing? After all, there are many prodigies in the clan.”
“Your Liu family still has a genius? I think the greatest genius of your Liu family is the ancestor who has been forced away by you. You don’t even want a Virtual Realm master, hehe.”
Amocking voice came from the side.
Immediately, the curiosity of the surrounding families was piqued.
A Virtual Realm master was considered a powerful existence among these medium-sized families.
There was actually someone who forced the Virtual Realm Ancestor away?
Were there many Virtual Realm masters in the Liu family?
After asking around, everyone knew that the Liu family only had one Virtual Realm master.
‘They were all stunned.
There was even someone who chased the only master in the clan out?
More importantly, he had successfully chased away the Ancestor.
That was the most powerful person in the family, but he couldn’t defeat a group of clansmen.
If their clan had such unfilial descendants, they would have long destroyed them.
“Which city does the Liu family belong to?”
“Stop asking around. They’re just a group of ungrateful people. I feel ashamed to join forces with them.”
“I feel disgusted! Such a despicable and treacherous family is working with them. My descendants are afraid!”
In the outer sect of the Xuantian Sect.
Li Yu’an and Li Pinlin looked at the hundred-story demon tower standing outside the mountain gate, then looked at the long line behind them. They were envious.
“Brother! When can we enter the tower to train?”
“Let’s wait for us to enter the inner sect! Now, those who enter the tower are the personal disciples of the elders. They are talented and have deep backgrounds. Only when they come out can the inner sect disciples behind them follow.”
Li Yu’an said.
“Brother, I just saw a personal disciple who was kicked out of the Demon Smelt Tower go in again. At this rate, I’m afraid that the last disciple of the inner sect won’t be able to climb the tower for the rest of his life. I heard that other humans are also fighting for spots.”
“Then cultivate well. There will always be a chance to enter the inner sect.”
Li Yuan gritted his teeth.
In the Li family, they were geniuses. But when they arrived at the Xuantian Sect, they realized that there were too many talents like them.
If disciples with such aptitude did not have enough perseverance and resources, they might not be able to enter the inner sect in their lifetime.
Many disciples were stuck at the Perfected Person realm for their entire lives.
And Perfected Person was already the most powerful master in many human cities.
“Brother, our potential is limited. I’m afraid it will be difficult for us to become Perfected Persons in a hundred years.”
Li Pinlin was disappointed.
They were already in their thirties.
However, he had just entered the Spirit Manipulation Realm.
After entering the Spirit Manipulation Realm, he realized that the subsequent cultivation was even more difficult.
“Since you know that your aptitude is limited, don’t envy others. Just cultivate well. Spend all your time and energy on controlling your emotions. Don’t even think about stepping into the ranks of masters in this lifetime.”
Suddenly, he heard a shout.
‘The two of them turned around and saw a young man in gray standing beside them.
He was dressed simply and looked no different from the handymen in the sect.
The two brothers were not fools. The servants in the sect would not appear in the outer sect, nor would they silently appear behind them and scold them.
“Senior Brother is right!”
“Tm not your senior brother. In terms of seniority, I’m much higher than your senior brother.”
Li Mu glanced at the two of them with a loving gaze.
“Then… Senior is right. Let’s go and cultivate now.”
“Yes! Remember, any emotions of envy and jealousy will become distracting thoughts for your cultivation. Some distracting thoughts can make you unable to enter the state for a few days or even a few years. Out of sight, out of mind! If you really want to cultivate, find a quiet place!”
Li Mu said.
After saying that, he threw out two porcelain bottles and disappeared.
“Thank you for your guidance, senior!”
The two of them bowed.
Then, he looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand and was about to open it to see what was inside.
“Don’t open it! Since it was given by Senior, it must be something good.. Let’s find a place to calm our hearts first!”
