From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

As Lin Fan travelled back to Qing Feng Sect, he could see groups of people making their way there.

All of them chatted about what they expected for their future, eager to join and become cultivators.

It reminded him of how he and Ho Ming had been the same not too long ago.

Finally, he reached the entrance where there was already a group of young men and women standing.

They were waiting for further instructions.

When Lin Fan's horse galloped past them, everyone looked at him.

Lin Fan, with his young look, was mistaken as one of them trying to get into Qing Feng Sect.

He got down and led his horse over to the guards.

Much to the dismay of some of the new potential recruits.

Some young masters with their servants, who wanted to stop him from cutting the 'queue', stopped when they saw the guards greeting Lin Fan.

The guards were polite and bowed to him as they took over the horse from Lin Fan.

"Thanks," Lin Fan thanked the guards and walked up the stairs.

"That young boy..." One of the young masters pointed at Lin Fan and tried to make sense of things.

"Young boy? That's the core disciple of the Physique Peak Lord, Zhang Yi Nian."

One of the guards corrected the young master in awe.

To him, Lin Fan had looked so young and was most likely a nobody.

The young master soothed his chest as he thought to himself, lucky he hadn't kicked up a fuss.

...

When he got to the central square, disciples were getting ready to test the new recruits.

Senior martial brother, Sun Hai, was getting ready, as he had done before.

Zhang Xi called out to Lin Fan when she saw him.

"Lin Fan, come and be a role model to attract the new disciples."@@novelbin@@

It didn't sound good to Lin Fan.

He remembered how she had tried to recruit the new disciples the last time.

And the results were abysmal.

So, he gave her some advice and quickly left the central square instead.

Zhang Xi's eyes opened wide when Lin Fan told her what to do.

How to do marketing and position the Physique Peak appropriately.

And how to appeal to the 'customers'' primal instincts like fear.

She quickly got to work and brainstormed about it.

Finally, it was all about how you might not make it if you joined the other peaks.

How the intense competition at the other peaks would eat you up.

How would your family feel if you left Qing Feng Sect just a year later, just because the competition was too much for you.

And it could all be avoided if they joined Physique Peak instead.

Where there were ample resources to go around, and teachers would have time for the disciples.

It wasn't magic, but it did appeal to some of the new recruits.

And at the end of it all, the Physique Peak had five new disciples joining.

Not too bad as it was a new record for the Physique Peak.

...

The next day.

Lin Fan went to the Physique Peak to find new faces waiting in the main hall.

They were the five new disciples.

All of them were young teenage boys.

When they saw Lin Fan, they quickly stood up, bowed, and greeted him.

"Senior martial brother."

"I'm Lin Fan, core disciple of the Peak Lord. See you around," Lin Fan replied and went on his way.

He looked at them carefully as he left and figured they were mostly from humble backgrounds like him.

Even though they were wearing the white robes of the outer disciples, he noticed how their fingers were rough.

Most likely due to working on the land.

They looked at Lin Fan admirably as he left.

Thinking to themselves how lucky Lin Fan was to become a core disciple.

"Welcome."

Their thoughts were interrupted by Sun Hai.

He had entered the main hall and started to brief them on their duties.

Like what he had done for Lin Fan.

Life is indeed an endless cycle.

"Master, you were looking for me?" Lin Fan greeted Zhang Yi Nian when he entered Zhang Yi Nian's study room.

Zhang Yi Nian was enjoying his tea as he sipped from the teacup.

"Yes, the sect master has made some arrangements with the other sects.

"Expect guests to come over today and you will have to go on missions with them.

"It is to prepare all of you to work together, for the final siege against Tan Xiao Yao."

He briefed Lin Fan about what to expect.

Lin Fan wondered who he would have to go with for the missions, and what type of missions they would be involved with.

He had a hunch they didn't have much time.

Tan Xiao Yao had already made his move from what he had encountered earlier.

He didn't have to guess for any longer as Qing Yang Zi summoned him to the Million Sword Hall moments later.

...

Million Sword Hall.

When Lin Fan arrived, Ho Ming was already there with Hun Yen Kun.

And there were some other familiar faces in the hall.

Lai Qing and Lai Ming from the Storm Fist Thunder Sect.

Also, Hu Tuo was there, keeping to himself and standing quietly.

Lastly, there was also Zhao Jia Rui.

Other than these few familiar faces, disciples from other sects were also around.

"Welcome everyone," Qing Yang Zi greeted all the disciples as he entered and sat on his seat.

"Sect master Qing Yang Zi," The disciples bowed and greeted him back.

Qing Yang Zi nodded his head and said, "Thank you for coming.

"Your sect masters must have briefed you on the purpose, so let's begin.

"You shall be formed up in teams and assigned missions.

"The details will be handed to you after my briefing.

"Good luck, everyone."

Menial disciples then appeared and handed every disciple a letter.

The letter had their team members and the mission they had to complete.

Lin Fan hoped he would be with his usual crew of Ho Ming and Hun Yen Kun as he opened the letter.
