Chapter 1665 - Zhang Feng Visits
But Zhang Feng still worried about when Zhao Hai would go out. If Zhao Hai closed up for several years, then it would have a huge effect on his plans.
As he was thinking of this, Zhang Feng heard Zhang Hao’s voice outside, “First Senior Brother, Little Hai sent a letter. He’s out of seclusion.”
Zhang Feng stared and he quickly stood up. He didn’t wait for Zhang Hao to come in as he immediately walked out. Then he said, “Follow me.” Then the two went to the transmission formation. Before long, the two arrived at the Ignored Valley.
The two appeared at the Ignored Valley and saw Zhao Hai waiting for them. Upon seeing the two, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Zhao Hai has seen the Senior Brothers.”
Zhang Feng smiled at Zhao Hai and said, “Good, you’ve progressed well. It seems like your seclusion has been effective. Let’s go in and have a talk.” Zhao Hai nodded, then he invited the two into his residence.
After settling down inside the residence, Zhang Feng turned to Zhao Hai and said, “I was worried about you. I didn’t expect you to suddenly close up. Next time you should send a word to me. I’ll send you a protector.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Thank you Senior Brother. Actually, I had a sudden enlightenment this time, so I couldn’t stop myself from closing up. Senior Brother can rest assured, I will inform you next time.”
Zhang Feng nodded and said, “That would be best. From what I can see, you’ve benefited a lot from your seclusion. This is very good. You should place cultivation as your first priority.”
Zhao Hai nodded. Then he looked at Zhang Feng and said, “Senior Brother, can you find me some manuals related to formations? I want to take a look. It might be useful to me.”
Zhang Feng stared for a moment, then he nodded and said, “There’s no problem. There’s a special manual in the sect that has very good formations. I’ll ask them to send it over. Why do you need to study them? Do you plan to refine some artifacts?”
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “I don’t have such plans. I just like to study formations.”
Zhang Feng nodded and said, “Alright, I will send them to you. But you have to take care. You can’t delay your cultivation because of this.” Zhao Hai nodded.
Zhang Feng added, “You’ve been in seclusion for six months. In two months, there will be an Outer Sect competition. You need to prepare well. Don’t be too eye-catching in the competition, but don’t lose too badly. Understand?”
Zhao Hai was also aware of the Outer Sect Competition. In fact, in the Black Tiger Gang, whether it be the Outer Sect, Inner Sect, or the Core Disciples, all of them would compete. Generally, the competition was annual. The top ten Outer Disciples can enter the Inner Sect while the bottom ten of the Inner Sect would have two chances. If they became the bottom then for three consecutive competitions, then they would be downgraded into Serving Disciples. Meanwhile, the top ten Serving Disciples would be promoted to the Outer Sect. The top ten Inner Sect Disciples would also be promoted to be Core Disciples. And Core Disciples wouldn’t be demoted.
Core Disciples were richly taken care of by the sect. If they fell to the Inner Sect, then their cultivation would slow down. Their level might even decrease. This was a loss that the Sect wouldn’t let happen.
But although the Core Disciple competition wouldn’t demote a Core Disciple, it would still affect their allowance. The final ten Core Disciples would have the same allowance as the top ten Inner Disciples. As for the top ten Core Disciples, they would have the right to construct a mountain residence and use a tiger ship.
The Black Tiger Gang has millions and millions of Serving Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples. The struggle to reach the top ten of this pile was an intense struggle. What Zhang Feng was telling Zhao Hai was to aim for the top ten but not belong to them in the end.
Zhao Hai also didn’t want to be in the top ten. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to struggle nor did he think that he wasn’t strong enough, he just thought that it wasn’t the right time.
If he entered the Inner Sect the first year he arrived at the Great World of Cultivation, he would certainly attract a lot of attention. This would bring no benefit to him.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Senior Brother can rest assured. I understand what I should do.”
Zhang Feng turned to Zhang Hao and said, “Little Hao, you don’t need to work too hard this time. When the time comes, I will directly promote you to the Inner Sect. You don’t have to worry.”
Zhang Hao stared, then his expression lit up as he bowed and said, “I thank Senior Brother.” Zhang Feng nodded. It was possible for him to promote Zhang Feng to the Inner Sect, this was because he has a mountain residence himself.
In the Black Tiger Gang, once Core Disciples got their mountain residence, they were allowed to recruit a thousand Serving Disciples, three hundred Outer Disciples, and one hundred Inner Disciples. Also, every year, they have the power to promote ten Serving Disciples to the Outer Sect and promote three Outer Sect Disciples to the Inner Sect. They even have the right to promote one Inner Sect Disciple to a Core Disciple, after careful scrutiny by the sect. As for the promotion of an Outer Disciple to the Inner Sect, there was no need to inspect.
Besides Elders who have their own mountains, only the top ten Core Disciples and Zhang Feng have this power. This power also gave them the opportunity to win people over.
It must be said that apart from being able to use a tiger ship, Zhang Feng has the same benefits as the top ten Core Disciples. This was the reason why the top ten Core Disciples targeted him. It was also the reason why Zhang Feng was going against the top ten Core Disciples.
In Zhang Feng’s opinion, since he was fully capable of becoming one of the top ten Core Disciples, he should have the right to use a tiger ship. But since he couldn’t use one, this caused him to be envious of the top ten Core Disciples, which increased his hatred towards them.
For the top ten Core Disciples, Zhang Feng was just the top Inner Disciple. He doesn’t have the right to have his own mountain residence. However, he was actually bestowed with a mountain. Wasn’t this a provocation to the top ten Core Disciples? Because of this, the hatred between both sides became deeper and deeper.
Zhang Feng turned his head to Zhao Hai and said, “Little Hai, because of you, the Ignored Valley has become important to me. So I have to keep you here. But don’t worry, I definitely won’t trap you in this place. I will promote you to the Inner Sect soon. I’m not someone who would kill the donkey after unloading the grains.”
Zhao Hai bowed and said, “Senior Brother, I understand.”
Zhang Feng looked at the time and said, “In two days, I’ll have Little Hao send you the formation manual. I can’t stay here for a long time, I also have to be careful.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Senior Brother can rest assured, there won’t be any problems here.” Zhang Feng nodded before he stood up.
Looking at the two people leaving through the transmission formation, Zhao Hai waved his hand as Laura and the others appeared beside him. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, you want to study the formations of the Great World of Cultivation?”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Of course. The Great World of Cultivation is a cut above compared to the lower realms. The formations they use are certainly more powerful. If we make their formations three-dimensional, it would be very useful for us.”
Laura nodded. Then she asked, “Why did you call us over?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “What, don’t you feel it troublesome to stay in the Space all the time? I plan to take you out to play. The Black Tiger Gang’s domain is so big. It shouldn’t be difficult to find a fun place to go.”
Hearing, Zhao Hai, Laura and the others stared before they laughed. Cai’er said, “Young Master, we must go to the Seven-colored Flower Valley!” Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Alright, then we’ll go to the Seven-colored Flower Valley.”
The Seven-colored Flower Valley was a forbidden area within the Black Tiger Gang’s domain. It was a huge mountain valley. Inside this valley were seven-colored flowers. These flowers weren’t as big as Cai’er’s true body. However, the poison within these flowers was terrifying. Core Formation cultivators would be poisoned and die if they were to inhale this poison. Such poisons were very rare. This was also the reason why the valley was deemed as a forbidden area by the sect.
Naturally, being “forbidden” was merely a title. People would still come to the valley from time to time. Most of these people were at the Core Formation Stage. They would pick flowers in order to concoct poison.
The Seven-colored Flower Valley has already been mapped by the Space. Cai’er immediately liked the place when he saw it. So upon hearing that Zhao Hai wanted to go out and place, she quickly proposed to go there. Naturally, Laura and the others wouldn’t decline.
Zhao Hai waved his hand as the group vanished and then reappeared near a valley. The valley was indeed enormous. From side to side, the valley spanned several kilometers. The valley was surrounded by tall mountains that blocked the cold air. Because of this, the valley was warm all throughout the year.
Due to the climate, the valley was filled with beautiful flowers. Nobody would want to leave the place. And if you were below the Core Formation Stage, then you definitely wouldn’t be leaving this place.
As the group appeared at the valley, a prompt was immediately issued by the Space. It said that the valley was full of poisonous gas and that they were poisoned. Fortunately, an antidote was quickly made.
They have seen the scenery inside the Space. But after seeing it with their own eyes, Laura and the others couldn’t help but cheer. Then they flew all over the valley as they looked at the flowers. They looked like beautiful butterflies.
Although the flowers in the valley were poisonous, they were very fragrant. Moreover, the fragrance wasn’t thick, it was mild and very nice to the nose. Naturally, if you cannot get rid of the poison, this fragrance would be your end.
Looking at the women, Zhao Hai smiled as he stood on the side. His view of the valley has become akin to a painting. It could be described as poetic.
