As the elder spoke, the disciples in the square who had not participated in the challenge looked at Li Xuan with confusion. After all, the interval between the challenges was less than a hundred breaths. If he failed, Li Xuan would be fine, but if he succeeded, it was too fast!
Yang Wenlin was also unsure of the situation. The time was too short. It was known that Ju Ling Zun's strength had reached the Yin-Yang Realm. Although the clone was only at the peak of the Saint realm, based on its solid physical body, even an early-stage Shi Yuan realm existence could fight against it.
Time passed slowly. After a full half an hour, all the challenges ended with a figure falling from the void.
"Challengers: 695. Successful challengers: 312." Ju Ling Zun slowly opened his eyes and looked at everyone, his expression unchanged.
"Haha, Ju Ling Zun, thank you for your hard work." Just then, a hearty voice came. Li Xuan heard this and looked over as six figures arrived together.
"Greetings, Six Peak Lords." Yang Wenlin and others bowed slightly upon seeing this, then looked at Li Xuan and said, "Our Physical Body Sect has seven peaks. Besides the main peak, the other six peaks have their own specialties. And before you now are the lords of these six peaks."
"Those who succeed in the challenge have the opportunity to be chosen."
As soon as Yang Wenlin finished speaking, Li Xuan's brow furrowed. The opportunity to be chosen sounded like ripe watermelons placed by the roadside, waiting to be picked. However, Li Xuan also knew that the strength of these six Peak Lords seemed to be at the Yin-Yang Realm, just like Ju Ling Zun.
"Ju Ling Zun, how are these 312 people rated?" one of the six Peak Lords asked Ju Ling Zun with a smile.
Ju Ling Zun pondered for a moment and then said, "183 people, Grade C. 92 people, Grade B. 36 people, Grade A."
Ju Ling Zun paused and then looked at Li Xuan and said, "He, Special Grade."
Special Grade!
As soon as Ju Ling Zun's voice fell, Yang Wenlin and even the six Peak Lords immediately looked at Li Xuan.
At this moment, Yang Wenlin and the others finally understood that Li Xuan had truly succeeded in the challenge.
But Special Grade, how high was that evaluation? And to have it come from Ju Ling Zun's mouth undoubtedly showed that Li Xuan's potential, talent, and strength were all top-notch.
However, Yang Wenlin and the others remained silent. After all, the six Peak Lords had arrived, and what followed would undoubtedly be a fierce battle of contention. And Li Xuan was the center of that contention.
Indeed.
A few breaths later, the middle-aged man who had asked Ju Ling Zun earlier flashed in front of Li Xuan and said with a smile, "Little fellow, are you willing to take me as your master? Don't worry, as long as you agree to be my disciple, all the resources of Ju He Peak will be yours to use."
"Shen Shan, that's not right." As soon as Peak Lord Shen Shan finished speaking, a figure appeared before Li Xuan and said, "This old man is Bi Jiang of Song Luan Peak. If you are willing to become my disciple, in addition to resources, I will accept you as my last disciple!"
"Bi Jiang, you're talking about Shen Shan, but how are you any better? Little fellow, if you are willing to take me as your master, I will not only accept you as my last disciple but also impart all the cultivation methods I have learned to you!"
"You people are truly shameless. Little fellow, if you join my Sheng Quan Peak, you can make any request."
"..."
With Peak Lord Shen Shan's opening, the other Peak Lords could not sit still. They immediately rushed to Li Xuan, surrounding him tightly. The conditions and benefits they offered were so astonishing that the crowd in the square was dumbfounded.
"Don't you think we're redundant?" Zhu Xu said to the man in purple beside him with a wry smile.
"There's no other way. Who asked him to get a Special Grade evaluation from Ju Ling Zun?" The man in purple also said with a wry smile.
In fact, Li Xuan was also bewildered. The conditions offered by these Peak Lords were too high.
Any resources.
Last disciple.
Cultivation methods.
No tasks required.
...
At this moment, Li Xuan finally understood that one had to be outstanding. As the saying goes, fragrant flowers attract butterflies.
However, choosing how to do this had stumped Li Xuan. After all, if he chose one, he would offend the others.
"I say, you guys, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for this little fellow?" As Shen Shan and the others argued, a middle-aged woman walked up to Li Xuan and said with a smile. Although this woman was middle-aged, she was clearly a great beauty in her youth. As the middle-aged woman spoke, Shen Shan and the others stopped sheepishly.
"I think it's best to let this little fellow make his own decision. Little fellow, my name is Mo Xian, and I am the Peak Lord of Wang Xia Peak." The middle-aged woman then looked at Li Xuan with a smile and said.
Li Xuan immediately nodded slightly to Peak Lord Mo Xian, a hint of thought flashing in his eyes. This choice of six was indeed giving Li Xuan a headache.
"It seems that this little fellow cannot make a decision in a short time. Let's first assign these successful challengers," Peak Lord Mo Xian then said to Zhu Xu and the others.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xu and the others immediately straightened their chests. After all, the following time would be a moment that determined their future destiny.
The 311 people were quickly assigned by the six Peak Lords, Shen Shan and the others. As figures separated and stood in their respective lines, the gazes of Shen Shan and the others shifted back to Li Xuan. It was evident that they were more concerned about Li Xuan's choice.
Special Grade evaluation.
This was a rare and excellent prospect.
"Seniors, I truly don't know how to choose." Seeing their questioning gazes, Li Xuan said with a wry smile and clasped his fists. There was no other way; this choice of six was too difficult. Moreover, Li Xuan did not yet know which of the six Peak Lords was more suitable for him, as he had never met them before.
Ju Ling Zun, who was standing nearby, pondered for a moment and then said, "I have a way."
The six Peak Lords, Shen Shan and the others, immediately looked at Ju Ling Zun. They did not want to miss such a good prospect.
Li Xuan was also curious. Did Ju Ling Zun really have a way to solve this problem?
Ju Ling Zun glanced at Shen Shan and the other Peak Lords, then smiled slightly and said, "You six all favor him, and I favor him too. But if he has to choose only one of you, the rest will likely be unwilling."
"Ju Ling Zun, just tell us your method. Would you willingly give such a good prospect to someone else?" Peak Lord Shen Shan said helplessly.
Ju Ling Zun smiled and nodded, "I think, why don't we just let him take all six of you as his masters? That way, none of you will have to struggle."
The six Peak Lords, Shen Shan and the others, looked at each other and then nodded in unison, "We think this plan is feasible!"
