The so-called top disciple is a crucial position for every sect. There is only one, the so-called chief top disciple, who represents the new face of a sect. Therefore, no matter whether it is the sect leader, or how many disciples there are under each peak master or elder, there is no first disciple, and they all start with the second disciple.
Those who can be called senior brothers and senior sisters are the new generation of top figures in the sect. Therefore, this title is also a recognition and respect for strength. Even to a certain extent, this title also means the candidate for the next leader.
The Xuantian Sect has not established a major disciple for so long. On the one hand, Xi Ming, the leader, is unwilling to do so, and on the other hand, it is because of the existence of Chen Yue and Lu Chen Guang.
The entire Xuantian Sect knew that Xi Ming got the position of leader for nothing. Before the death of the former headmaster, there were still three disciples under the sect, namely Xi Guang, Xi Chen, and Xi Ming.
Xi Guang and Xi Chen were both top swordsman geniuses at that time, but Xi Ming's talent was relatively inferior to them.
Xi Guang became the eldest disciple of the sect at that time, and also the elder brother of the current peak masters and elders. However, Xi Chen was spotted by the then-Jianjian Elder and joined the Jianjian Peak to teach him personally.
Originally, Senior Brother Xiguang was supposed to be the confirmed leader, but the sect was in turmoil that year, and the spiritual veins in the sect were contaminated by the evil energy of the underworld. Many disciples were infected by the evil energy, and the former leader died because of this. At that time, the sect did not know how to get rid of the evil spirits, so Xi Guang could only transfer the evil spirits of all his disciples to himself and stay away from the sect, and he disappeared from the sect ever since.
So the position of leader fell to Xi Ming. It was precisely because of Senior Brother Xi Guang’s leadership that the peaks had indeed lost some trust in Xi Ming as leader at the beginning, and he was not Any open-minded person is well aware of the dissatisfaction of each peak. Therefore, in some things, they are often competitive and like to be first, in order to prove that they are better than others, not just a second-best option.
Especially his own disciples, who strive to be the first in everything, as if he can only teach the best disciples, which will prove that his position as the leader is more legitimate.
The masters of each peak can naturally see his thoughts, but the sect must have a leader, so they usually try to avoid his peak. No one was surprised at all that he would steal other people's disciples.
As for objecting to Hongge becoming the top disciple, it is easier because she is a disciple of Spiritual Medicine Peak, not Spiritual Sword Peak. The dignified chief disciple of Xuantian Sect was not from the sect leader, so how could he not be discouraged?
"I, the chief disciple of Xuantian Sect, have always been a sword cultivator, and there has never been any precedent for alchemy cultivation." Xi Ming said with a face of resistance, "Let's talk about an alchemy cultivator. If he becomes the chief disciple, wouldn't it make other sects laugh at me? If you are incompetent, how will you be able to defeat all factions when there is another big competition in the future?"
"So what about alchemy cultivators?" Chang Lan sneered and mocked directly, "You have so many sword cultivators under your sect that you have to find one who can beat us alchemy cultivators. I wonder who is incompetent?"
Xi Ming's face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. Perhaps he also thought about the Wulin Secret Realm and the fact that all members of Lingjian Peak were eliminated.
Chang Wenbai, who was next to him, added naively, "Yes, Master! The senior sister is very powerful, we are indeed not as good as her." They couldn't handle the furnace explosion alone, let alone other things. .
"Shut up!" Xi Ming turned around and glared at this Tie Hanhan, who was so angry that his liver ached. Who was he doing this for? "In any case, it is recognized that Dan Xiu is weak in battle. I have to consider Xuan Tian." The future of the sect. Unless she is willing to switch to sword cultivating, she will not be able to become the great disciple of our sect."
I just didn't say this clearly. If you want to be a disciple, you have to join his sect. Isn't this just being a rogue? Chang Lan was so angry that she stood up again.
"Peak Master Chang..." On the other hand, the Master of the Beast Control Peak next to him hurriedly held down the person, changed his mind, and immediately said, "The leader's words make sense. Compared to the alchemy cultivator, the sword cultivator's combat power is naturally Stronger. But didn’t you say last time that this disciple hadn’t chosen to practice the mind method yet, so it couldn’t be considered a true alchemy practitioner? Now it’s too late to find someone to teach her the way of the sword.”
Chang Lan was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, the eyes of the master of Poyue Peak next to him lit up, and he immediately said, "Yes! We are looking for someone to teach swordsmanship. Our Poyue Peak is good, and there is no need to change the sect. Furthermore, as your disciple is familiar with my sect Wang Meng, it would be most suitable for you to come to our Poyue Peak to learn swordsmanship!"
The other peak masters also reacted and immediately followed suit.
"How can your Po Yue Peak compare to our Ling Shi Peak? We have many sword cultivating disciples."
"Master Chang, let her come to our Forging Peak to learn. Not only do we have swordsmanship, but we can also refine weapons. It's similar to how you refine alchemy."
"It's better to come to our Xuanzhen Peak. Her talent for formations is so outstanding, and a fellow Danzhen practitioner is no worse than a swordsman!"
"Then we have to be at Xingluo Peak. We can learn astrology, fortune telling, Qimen Dunjia, etc.!"
"Why don't you ask Fu Feng? She has talents in swords, formations, and elixirs. Who says she doesn't have the Tao of Fu?"
"And we..."
The peak masters of each peak stood up to welcome people. Isn't it just to practice swordsmanship? There aren't a few sword cultivator disciples in any peak! It’s not like you have to go to the main peak.
Xi Ming's face suddenly sank.
Chang Lan chuckled softly and responded, "Thank you all Peak Masters, but my disciple's swordsmanship has always been taught by Chen Yue herself, and it is difficult to change it. As for whether she will major in swordsmanship or alchemy in the future. , it’s up to her.” Huh, don’t think I don’t know, you actually want to rob people too.
As soon as she said these words, everyone was shocked. It turned out that her swordsmanship was taught by Chen Yue. No wonder even the main peak disciples were so convinced of her. After all, although Chen Yue's status was embarrassing, her swordsmanship was the most outstanding except for the one at Zhi Jian Feng. The key was that he was taught by Senior Brother Xi Guang. Everyone subconsciously looked at someone in the main seat.
Sure enough, when he heard Chen Yue's name, Xi Ming's face became even uglier, and his palms clenched instantly. He felt an inexplicable resentment that he could never compare to that person. His eyes were filled with emotions, and he was too lazy to even do superficial things. He said coldly, "Being the eldest disciple of the sect is related to the glory of the sect. It is not just about practicing swordsmanship. You must also have corresponding strength, and at least understand the meaning of the sword. Since everyone respects this disciple so much, then Open the 'Questioning Sword Mirror' in two days. If she can understand the meaning of the sword in it, then I will recognize her as my great disciple! Huh!"
"Ask Jianjing, this..." Everyone was shocked and wanted to say something else.
However, Xi Ming stood up, flicked his sleeves, and disappeared into the hall.
"..." Chang Lan and the peak masters in the hall suddenly turned dark.
