Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1005: Chapter 65: Small in Stature, Great in Ambition

The five characters of Jiu Provinces Ancient Battlefield seemed to have magic power, instantly calming the previously ”utterly aggrieved” Old Fourth.

The Ancient Battlefield is an unfamiliar concept to most of the Martial Artists on the Qing Province Continent.

But for the Core Disciples of the Three Sects, it is a sacred and awe-inspiring presence.

Only because the entire mainland has very few people who can enter the Ancient Battlefield.

However, those who enter the Ancient Battlefield and manage to return successfully eventually become renowned figures on the mainland.

Some fortunate ones, by accumulating sufficient Merit in the Ancient Battlefield, directly become Gods within the Divine Realm.

But those are tales for later. To enter the Ancient Battlefield, one must have that eligibility and must first win the sect competition.

In past sessions, only the top three most outstanding disciples who won the sect competition could enter the Ancient Battlefield. This time, even the top ten can participate, which is undoubtedly great news.

The sect competition is a grand event of the Lonely Moon Sea, held every two years. According to the regulations, only disciples who have joined the Sect within fifty years can participate. If one ranks in the top three of a competition, they are not allowed to compete again next time.

Among the six disciples of Master Wuya, with the newly joined Little Di Shen, three have been in the Sect for less than fifty years.

Among them, Little Di Shen’s Fourth Senior Brother participated once but was defeated by someone from Xuefeng in the top ten trials, while Little Di Shen’s Fifth Senior Sister never competed due to her health condition.

”Master, after taking the Elixir Pills refined by Alchemist Qian this year, I’m feeling better, and I want to participate this year.”

Among all the disciples, the least noticeable one, Xiao Wu, suddenly spoke up.

The disciples of Master Wuya have diverse appearances but each possesses unique strengths.

Most of them were accepted as disciples due to superior talent, but there were two exceptions.

One was Qin Xiaochuan, known as Old Fourth, and the other was Xiao Wu, Wuyue.

Qin Xiaochuan has a complicated background; he was an orphan picked up by Master Wuya during a time when he was sending a batch of disciples into the Ancient Battlefield, his origin unknown.

As for Xiao Wu, Wuyue, she was the posthumous daughter of one of Master Wuya’s fellow disciples.

Her parents died unexpectedly during a Sect mission, and her mother gave birth to Wuyue amidst the peril.

Her life was saved, but Wuyue’s Dantian was affected, allowing her to gather only half of the Primordial Power compared to others, making her cultivation the weakest among the disciples, even weaker than the recently joined Little Di Shen, let alone competing in the sect competition.

Other senior brothers and sisters never brought this up in front of Wuyue to keep her from being upset.

Unexpectedly, this time, the usually introverted Wuyue actively volunteered.

”I had the same plan, Xiao Wu. Your Dantian is unlike others; only by refining the inner core of Sky Demon Level demons into medicine can it be completely cured. However, the Demon Clan has disappeared for years. Currently, the only place to hunt demons is the Ancient Battlefield. In the past, only the top three in the competition could enter the Ancient Battlefield; this year, the top ten can enter. Therefore, I also hope you participate in this competition.” Master Wuya looked at Wuyue’s overly thin face and sighed.

He always felt somewhat indebted to Xiao Wu.

Originally, the Sect mission back then should have been completed by him, but he was delayed by personal matters.

He always felt it was his fault that Xiao Wu’s parents died.

”Master, don’t forget about me, your disciple. Last time, I was defeated by that bastard from Xuefeng. This incident has been talked about for years; this time, I must win back.” Old Fourth Qin Xiaochuan shamelessly approached.

His purpose differed from Xiao Wu’s; besides avenging the past defeat two years ago, he held a personal ambition.

He always wanted to know who his biological parents were; perhaps at his birthplace, the Ancient Battlefield, he could find some clues.

”I’ll give you one chance. If you lose again, I’ll send you to the Outer Sect as a miscellaneous servant, saving Wuya Peak from embarrassment every day.” Master Wuya huffed and glared.

He glanced at the surrounding disciples and pondered.

”Actually, I summoned you today to discuss whether Xiao Liu should participate in this sect competition.”

Master Wuya was most troubled by Little Di Shen’s issue.

In fact, among his disciples, the age gap was quite significant.

The oldest disciple, Old First, has been apprenticed for over one hundred and fifty years, his cultivation comparable to the Divine Power Realm, considered a Demigod Body.

Old Second and Old Third, both have been in the Sect for over a hundred years, actively participating in and achieving top three in the sect competition.

But since Old Fourth, in every sect competition, none of Master Wuya’s disciples have ranked in the top ten.

To Master Wuya, this was clearly a disgrace.

This time, although Old Fourth and Xiao Wu would participate, one was careless, and the other had too weak a physique; whether they could enter the top ten was unknown. The rest depended on Little Di Shen.

But the child’s age...

Master Wuya worried that if he sent Little Di Shen on stage, would other peaks accuse him of child abuse?

”Master, Xiao Liu is too young; let’s skip this sect competition for him this time.”

The speaker was Master Wuya’s first disciple, meticulous and thoughtful.

”I don’t think so. Xiao Liu has extremely high comprehension. I sparred with him a few days ago, and he’s already able to fight me to a draw,” said Qin Xiaochuan.

”You dare say that; how long has he been in the Sect and how long have you?” Master Wuya scolded.

The other disciples each held their opinions.

”Master, why not summon Xiao Liu tomorrow morning and hear his thoughts. The child is exceedingly smart; surely he has his views.”

In the end, it was Master Wuya’s third disciple who made the decisive suggestion, with others agreeing that Little Di Shen would have his own ideas.

Master Wuya listened and indeed summoned Little Di Shen the next day for a talk.

The master and disciple had a confidential discussion in the room all morning. When Little Di Shen came out, Master Wuya had decided that Wuya Peak would send three disciples to participate in this sect competition.

”If you can secure the top three in the sect competition, you can represent the Sect and enter the Ancient Battlefield. The nature’s spiritual energy within the Ancient Battlefield is a hundred times that of the Qing Province mainland, ten times that of Lonely Moon Sea, Little Di Shen, if you can enter the Ancient Battlefield, your strength can be maximized.”

Master’s words still echoed in his ears.

Improvement... If strength can be improved, does it mean he is closer to ”growing up,” fulfilling washly wife’s hope?

Standing at the peak of Wuya Peak, Little Di Shen clenched his fists and silently admonished himself.

The sect competition, he must win!
