Chapter 15: Chapter 15 The chosen ones (updated)

Ever since that day, the whole sect had been in a state of uproar with every disciple doing everything they can to get stronger. From clearing missions to cultivating to fighting for resources. Everyone in the sect in fact, have already left the sect and experienced life and death battles. Only by putting their lives on the line, will they be able to grow at the fastest speed possible.

Due to the lack of foundation building rooms, every mountain was given one and as for the time allocation to use it, he left it to the mountain leaders to decide. If they decide to let someone use it, then he'll permit it. If they decide to use it for themselves, then that will be his wishes as what he needs most right now are the chosen ones to get much stronger in this one month.

Right now, exactly one month ever since that day, even the weakest disciple is at the seventh realm of martial apprentice while the highest is Lancelot and Ayden tied neck to neck at the sixth realm of martial master.

As for Nightin himself, he made a breakthrough to the martial spirit first realm and has already condensed out one hundred and ninety nine sword energies and successfully cultivated the fourth sword of nine mystics.

In the past month, he did not pay much attention to what was going on in the sect, but taking into consideration that neither Isabella, Lancelot or Ayden consulted him, it means that the worst things could have gotten in the past month was minor disputes.

Today will be the day where the other four disciples for the middle grade sect tournament will be chosen. It's not that he didn't want to give his disciples more time to prepare themselves before the upcoming tournament, but because he wants to spend more time helping those that he chooses to cultivate at an even higher intensity.

From the mountain of spear path lead by Lancelot, it will be him who is currently at the sixth realm of martial master and his disciple Ray Leohart who is at the fourth realm of martial master. Even though there's someone who's at the fifth realm of martial master which is above Ray, his combat strength can't be compared to Ray who had already condensed out one hundred and twenty nine spear energies.

Next up, there's the mountain of body tempering. The two representing will be Ayden who is also at the sixth realm of martial master and his disciple which everyone calls little black. As for the reason, it's because unlike others, his skin is so tanned that you won't even be able to see him with the naked eye in the dark. To top it up, his cultivation may only be at the second realm or martial master, yet he's born with divine strength which gives him an edge over others, making him not any weaker than Ray.

Thirdly, will be the mountain of archery. The disciple representing will be Abby Lee who has the highest cultivation out of all the disciples here, even above Lancelot and Ayden. A high grade martial master at the seventh realm and not only that, she had already condensed out one hundred and forty nine arrow energies, only twenty below Lancelot and Ayden. If it weren't for her wanting to serve under Isabella as her right hand woman, she would definitely have the chance to be a legacy disciple as well.

In terms of combat strength however, even Lancelot and Ayden together might not be Abby's match. Reason being that there's a huge difference in the amount of spirit energy that they have. From the first realm to the third grade of every major rank, one is known to be at the low grade. From the fourth realm to sixth realm of every major rank, one is known to be at the middle grade. From the seventh to ninth realm is thus the high grade.

Last but not least, everyone was shocked by the sect master Nightin's last choice, the black robe disciple, Alexander Adam. At this point, people were chattering and discussing with each other about the sect master's sudden choice.

"Hey,who is that guy? I don't even remember seeing him before."

"I know right, maybe he bribed our sect master somehow which is why he obtained the spot."

"Don't jump into conclusions so early, who knows, he might have been staying low key throughout just to wait until this day."

At this moment, Alexander released his aura which surprised everyone, the fourth realm of martial master. Not only that, everyone was looking at the scroll which he summoned out, some filled with curiosity, some puzzled by the sudden appearance of this scroll.

This would be a good moment to step out, seeing this chance to raise everyone's morale to a higher level, Nightin stepped out "The reason I chose Alexander for the sixth disciple participating is simple, he managed to awakened his spiritual treasure and even raised it to the middle grade, something that even most geniuses of those great sects can't achieve. Spiritual treasures are divided into the common, rare and epic grade which is equivalent to the mortal, magical and royale weapons respectively."

Taking a deep breathe, Nightin continued "If there's nothing else,everyone is dismissed from here. I don't expect anyone to be slacking off just because you missed the opportunity this time. As a cultivator,your priority would be to protect those around you,fame and prestige are nothing compared to your loved ones."

After everyone besides those who were chosen had left the main hall, Nightin got them to follow him to the back mountain.

When everyone reached the back mountain,what they saw was a peaceful area with a gigantic waterfall and lush plants growing in the forest. Everywhere was brimming with life,with the sunlight shining in,the whole place could be described as a paradise.

Everyone besides Nightin was surprised by this place blazing with vibrant life in front of them. Only for Nightin to pour cold water on them the next moment.

Turning his head towards everyone,he told them "Welcome to the first day of your lovely hell little fellas!"

Everyone took a deep gulp of saliva and without knowing when,Alexander had actually tried to slip off.

"Sect master,your disciple Alexander has some matters to attend to and will be taking his leave first, I'll see you again two months later!"

Finishing what he had to say,Alexander immediately tried to escape,only to be caught back by Nightin's sword net and thrown into the water.

With a stern face,Nightin scolded Alexander "Alexander I don't have time to waste with you,if you don't want to cultivate then you can get out of here right now!"

Nightin's words struck deep into Alexander's heart as he deeply apologised while lowering his head "I'm sorry for my selfish thought."

And with this small case closed,the hell training officially begins.
