Shun Long's interest was piqued as the fat Fu continued to explain
''In the 'floating cloud sect' there are 4 ways to become an inner disciple. The first way is to become a heaven expert and be under 100 years old.
The second way is to be born into a big family like me or Lu Wen, then you can directly enter the sect as an inner disciple. However, although it is technically possible, even a family like my Fu family or Lu Wen family can only send very few disciples to directly enter as a few inner disciples. So this method is the most unusual of all.
The third way was for the Sect Elders to like you and accept you as a direct disciple. But because their requirements are usually very strict, these methods are almost as rare as the second.
And the fourth and final way to become an inner sect disciple, was to reach the top 100 rankings in the arena and get the chance to fight against inner sect disciples.''
Shun Lama asked
''So, if one entered the top 100 rankings, they could challenge a disciple within a sect?''
Lu Wen was the one who answered this time
'' It doesn't last like this. However, being in the top 100 in the arena, you are usually among the 100 strongest outer sects. At the end of the year, you might be given a chance to fight against an inner sect disciple, and depending on the outcome of the match, you might be able to become an inner disciple and be allowed to enter in the inner city.''
Shun Long looked around as he complained
''So that's why the arena is so full, even though it only stands 100 large.''
''Only the top 100? This sect had over 200,000 outer sect disciples. Is it easy to become one of the top 100?'' This time it was Fu Peizhi who spoke in an angry tone that was not displayed in his voice.
Shun Long understood that he had unintentionally underestimated the top 100 and that was why Fu Peizhi looked furious, yet he was unwilling to back down as he replied.
It was not that Shun Long had deliberately underestimated the 100 outer disciples, but he himself had set a goal that was much higher than that. It is impossible to stop at the outer city of the 'floating cloud sect'. His goal was to become so powerful that no one else could decide his fate, and knew that he already had the means to achieve it by practicing as hard as possible in the 'Monarch's Hourglass' technique'.
As for people like Fu Peizhi who were already satisfied to be ranked in the top 20 in the arena? He will sooner or later be surpassed by others with such a mentality.
'The world of cultivation' is a cruel world and is not much different from the 'mortal world' in the sense that you will eat or you will be eaten. If you do not strive to become stronger, others will dictate your fate for you in the future.
''Right! In my eyes, you and everyone from the 'mortal world' are all ants. Even Xiao Juyan was just a slightly larger ant in my eyes. I only aim to become stronger as I rise through the arena rankings, and my only opponents are those in the top 15. I'm not putting you in my eyes because you're not even cut out to talk to me. I don't know what the young master sees in you, but in my eyes you will never be more than an ant.''
After he finished speaking, Fu Peizhi stood up and left.
'' Brother Shun, please forgive me. He was usually exaggerated but this time he crossed the line. Even though I'm not strong enough to teach him a lesson, I'll make sure he gets what he deserves once we get back to the family.''
Fatty Fu's eyes almost spouted flames as he looked at Fu Peizhi's back.
But Shun Long only saw it
'' It's not your fault so what are you apologizing for? It is clear that he is too arrogant and he does not put anyone here in his eyes, but I will make sure to educate him in the future, wrong his words from today.''
''Right, with Brother Shun's talent, you won't need many years to reach the final stage of the Earth level since you are already at the peak of rank 6 in condensing qi.''
Before Shun Long could respond to Fu's fat words, a sudden exclamation rang out from the moment 2 young men had already stepped in the middle of the arena.
