Chapter 69 - Three-and-a-Half Stars, Yet Chosen by the Heavens

Tai Zhuang stepped forward. Five and a half stars!

"How can this be, how can I only be five and a half stars..."

The sect leader shook her head.

The following talents were even worse. The sect leader became more and more disappointed and her expression became colder and colder. This made Jin Yan panic even more.

The sect leader actually had high hopes for Qinchuan. She didn't think that she would be able to find many that she was satisfied with, just one was enough. However, Qinchuan's talent was disappointing.

After the test, the place fell silent and the atmosphere was a little tense. Jin Yan braced himself and bowed, "Teacher, what do you think?"

"They are far from being my disciples." The sect leader sighed, her tone filled with disappointment and exhaustion.

Until now, there was only one person that she was satisfied with, Loge, the golden-robed youth beside her.

"I only have one true disciple, Loge. Do you know how many stars he is?" The sect leader looked at the geniuses and asked.

They all looked at the sect leader curiously. How many stars could she be satisfied with?

"Eight and a half stars!"

These three words struck everyone like a heavy blow.

Eight and a half stars, how heaven-defying was one to reach that level? How far could he grow in the future?

"According to the old rules, three can become my disciples, but they won't be my direct disciples." The sect leader said.

Everyone's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Even though she wouldn't be a personal disciple, and thus wouldn't be a true master-disciple relationship, she would still be able to call her 'teacher' just like Goldblaze did. She would be able to learn a bit from her, and they would be able to benefit greatly.

Just being a disciple would make countless martial artists jealous.

No one knew how strong this woman was. She represented the top few in the Fengyang Dynasty, the ruler of Shuixi County, a legend, a martial arts legend. To be able to become her disciple, even if it was just a title, was a great honor.

"Teacher, which three will you choose?" Jin Yan asked.

The woman looked at Leng Qingxue and Tai Zhuang, "These two are the most talented out of them, as for the other one..."

The woman fell into deep thought!

Leng Qingxue and Tai Zhuang were surprised.

The two of them were decided, but the last one made the sect leader worry.

"Teacher, what about Qinchuan? He's only sixteen, but he defeated an eighteen -year-old martial arts grandmaster. Don't you think that's a little unusual?" Golden Blaze had high hopes for Qinchuan.

Qinchuan felt a trace of gratitude towards Golden Blaze. No matter what, he was willing to make friends with him and help him in the future.

The Sect Master hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since you admire him so much, then count him in."

"Thank you, teacher! You will definitely not regret taking him in!" Golden Blaze said happily.

"What do you mean?" The Grand Master seemed to be curious as well. He didn't know why Golden Blaze held Qinchuan in such high regard.

Golden Blaze didn't know what to say. In truth, this was what he felt. Sometimes, he thought back to Qinchuan's battle, the feeling of fighting the Frost Sabertooth Tiger, the feeling of fighting Tai Zhuang.

"Forget it. Since you've already accepted it, there's no need to say anything more." Seeing that Golden Blaze couldn't say anything more, the Grandmaster decided not to let him continue.

"Leng Qingxue, Tai Zhuang, Qinchuan, from today onwards, you are the sect master's disciples." Jin Yan announced.

The three of them bowed to the Grandmaster.

"Okay, it's just a name, not an official disciple. There's no need to be so formal." The Grandmaster smiled.

He glanced at the three of them and finally saw the silent youth beside him. His gaze changed a little. Qinchuan could clearly feel the hope and anticipation in his eyes.

This woman was a woman with a story. She had something that outsiders didn't know about. She probably had a wish that she couldn't fulfill, which was why she was looking for a genius disciple in hopes that her disciple could fulfill her wish!

Qinchuan knew that this disciple of theirs was just like what she said. It was just a name. The one who could truly inherit her legacy was Loge.

Just a name, she might never teach you anything. If she was in a good mood, she might teach you a thing or two.

The others returned to the Genius Hall in disappointment. Qinchuan and the other two stayed behind.

Golden Blaze was the same as Qinchuan and the other two. They were master and disciple in name.

Golden Blaze, Loge, Leng Qingxue, Tai Zhuang and Qinchuan.

"You guys are considered to be my disciple. Today, let's sit down and have a chat. If you have any questions, feel free to ask." The Grandmaster smiled and invited everyone to sit down.

"Teacher, can one's innate talent be improved later on?" Leng Qingxue was the first to ask.

"There are trillions of people in this world. There are countless of them. However, everyone's innate talent is determined the moment they are born. More than 99% of them are ordinary people. As for whether innate talent can be improved later on, it can be improved, but the improvement is limited. From what I know, the highest improvement should be one star. Furthermore, it consumes several types of priceless treasures."

At this point, she continued, "Treasures that can improve innate talent are already extremely rare. Consuming several types of treasures is not something an ordinary sect can do."

The Grandmaster's words were very clear to everyone. It was unrealistic to think of relying on elixirs to improve one's innate talent.

Qinchuan's attainments in alchemy were not bad. He also knew that it was very difficult to improve one's innate talent. Some elixirs were said to improve one's innate talent, such as the Heaven and Earth Flower, but the improvement was really not worth mentioning.

When they came out, Leng Qingxue, Qinchuan, Tai Zhuang and Golden Blaze came out together.

"Thank you, Third Senior Brother!" Qinchuan thanked Golden Blaze.

"Junior Brother Qin, you don't have to thank me. I was just doing what I should do." Golden Blaze smiled.

Now that Qinchuan and the other two had become the Grandmaster's disciples, their treatment was naturally different. For example, the Genius Tower was given up previously. Now, they all had their own independent courtyards.

Other than some halls in the Immortal Cloud Sect, there were also some independent courtyards. These were all things that only those with high status and strength could enjoy.

Qinchuan and the other two bid farewell to their Third Senior Brother.

"The three of you, there's something that I need to tell you in advance. Junior Brother Loge is a genius and his innate talent is even more outstanding. The Grandmaster thinks highly of him. He is the Grandmaster's hope. He looks very kind, but he's extremely proud and arrogant. He can't tolerate others being stronger than him. Therefore, it's best that we don't fight with him. Don't fight for anything." Golden Blaze thought for a moment and said.

"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your reminder!"

"Alright, we're all fellow apprentices. If you need any help in the future, you can look for me." Golden Blaze waved his hand and left after speaking.

Qinchuan, Leng Qingxue and Tai Zhuang each had their own courtyards. The three courtyards were adjacent to each other.

The three of them bade farewell and returned to their own courtyards.

The courtyards were not big, but they were decorated warmly. There was a small fish pond and a small garden. The air was fresh and the faint fragrance of flowers lingered in the air. There was also a two-story building that looked very unique.

Strength, status …

Qinchuan looked at this place and sighed. Strength was everything. With strength came status. Money, beauties, everything.

There were also several maids in the courtyard who were in charge of daily life. This was the change in status.

Returning to his room, Qinchuan looked around the luxurious interior. He did not have any requirements for this place. It was fine as long as it was livable.

Recalling the Grandmaster's words, the Tenth Stage of the Martial Path, Grandmaster and even Martial Grandmaster were all in the Foundation Establishment stage. They were building the foundation and strengthening the body's foundation and bones.

Qinchuan had always been breaking through on his own. The Overwhelming Tyrant Body had a good foundation and his bones were even better. It was just that he did not know why he was only three and a half stars during the test...

Besides, the Nine Dragons Strength Technique was the best for strengthening the body. Right now, Qinchuan could be said to lack nothing. Cultivation techniques, movement techniques, physique and the golden pupils.

In the early stages, when building the foundation, a suitable cultivation technique was the most important. The Nine Dragons Strength Technique that Qinchuan obtained was enough to make Qinchuan a tiger that had grown wings.

Qinchuan had now found the key. His main cultivation technique was the Nine Dragons Strength Technique. He continued to use the Nine Dragons Strength Technique to break through to Martial Grandmaster.

He still had to cultivate the Nine Paths Medical Scriptures. Maybe when he reached the Martial Grandmaster level, there would be some changes. It would be useless to combine it with the Overwhelming Vital Qi. The Nine Paths Medical Scriptures were the foundation of the Martial Physician Sect. Together with the World Crossing Steps, they were the foundation of the Martial Physician Sect.

The World Crossing Steps was not simple. It was not as simple as the Nine Dragons Strength Technique. The Nine Paths Medical Scriptures and the World Crossing Steps were the foundation of the Martial Physician Sect. Qinchuan felt that the Nine Paths Medical Scriptures would not be simple.

This thought made Qinchuan happy. The cultivation technique that he did not intend to cultivate reignited his hope.
