Qi Yun Pavilion.
Within the main hall, only Sect Leader Xu Zhouzi and the recently returned Xu Qingshan were present.
After listening to Xu Qingshan's detailed report on the selection process, a sharp light burst from Xu Zhouzi's world-weary eyes as he nodded repeatedly.
"Excellent! What a find Jiang Che is! To think he could perform so well. That boy is truly a piece of uncarved jade!"
Xu Zhouzi stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, appearing quite excited.
But soon, he stopped, and his expression grew solemn.
"Qingshan."
"I am here, Master," Xu Qingshan replied respectfully.
"Although Jiang Che has entered the Myriad Phenomena Dao Sect, this is only the beginning." Xu Zhouzi sighed, his tone profound. "The brutality of the internal competition within a top-tier major sect like that is far beyond our imagination. The greatest talents from all over the world gather there. While resources are plentiful, the price to compete for them is immense."
