The old men chatted with Su Ping for a while longer to ask about his general situation. They proudly introduced him to the Heaven Asking Church once they realized he wasn't acquainted.
All of the old men were core disciples of the Heaven Asking Church. Their potential was limited, even though they were already trying their hardest; it was barely possible to make a breakthrough without major opportunities.
It seems that the Ascendant State has been a major challenge since ancient times.
