Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 549: Chapter 230: I’ve Let You Down! How Strong is Sect Leader Senior Brother?_5

”Master, I spilled it on my shoes,” Yuchi laughed. ”Don’t worry, it’s nothing.”

”Yeah, don’t worry about it.”

The Sect Leader spoke calmly, ”Since I have some free time today, I’ve been observing your sect. The relationships among your disciples seem quite harmonious. So, how is your sect’s success rate these days?”

The Sect Leader wasn’t implying anything extra; it was just a simple chat between sect leaders.

”Success rate?” Yuchi thought for a moment. ”So far, we’ve participated in ten matches, winning seven and losing five.”

”That’s pretty good!”

The Sect Leader immediately exclaimed in surprise, ”My sect has had twenty-seven matches, with only seven wins and twenty losses.”

”That’s already quite good. My sect consists of mostly young ones, so their strength is just like that. Your sect must be placed ahead of mine.” Yuchi said with a smile.

”Haha, you don’t need to say it like that. Even powerful sects like Purple Gold Sect started from scratch and grew over time. Although your Ascension Gate might not be powerful now, who knows what the future holds? Your disciples might break through to the Qi Cultivation Realm, and in thirty-three years, they might reach the Foundation Establishment Stage!”

”If that’s the case, then it’s really good luck, getting such a nice ranking.”

”After all, since the grand sect tournament doesn’t charge fees, gaining a good reputation can alleviate our gold and silver crisis.”

This young man sure knows how to talk, and his words are pleasant to hear. I love chatting with this young man. While Yuchi was smiling and sipping his tea, he also smiled and asked, ”Fellow Daoist, do you have any disciples who haven’t fought yet? If you’re not against it, I could offer them some advice. Though my cultivation level isn’t particularly high, I am at the third level of the Core Formation Stage, so I should be able to give some guidance.”

Yuchi suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

Surely, he meant well, which could be seen as an apology. For a small sect, this is a great deal, considering someone at the third level of the Core Formation Stage already has a decent level of cultivation, akin to those in the Cloud Mountain Sect.

But the key is, isn’t this too much? All the Qi Cultivation and below stage disciples have already competed, and tomorrow it’s going to be Yuluo fighting... But Huo Yuluo’s battles... Can he really offer advice on that? Huo Yuluo is at the fourth level of the Golden Core Stage after all.

So, how should he respond?

Yuchi felt the goodwill from the other party, but should he just decline? Tell him there’s no need for his advice, or just say he’s busy? That wouldn’t be necessary. Or maybe lie that the competitions are over but what if he sees the final match? That wouldn’t look good either.

But should he really let him advise Huo Yuluo? Might end up with Huo Yuluo giving him pointers in martial arts instead.

”Uh, sure!” Yuchi finally nodded. ”I’ll trouble you to come by then!”

”Haha, no problem at all!” The Sect Leader didn’t sense anything wrong, interpreting Yuchi’s hesitation as embarrassment. So, hearing Yuchi’s agreement made him quite happy, proof that the other party was still willing to chat friendly.

From this Sect Leader’s perspective, he was being very accommodating. A Core Formation Stage cultivator actively offering to speak so much to a newbie Sect Leader was very gracious. It’s just that his timing wasn’t the best; coming a day earlier would’ve been better.

”Let’s have some tea...”

Yuchi stood up to pour tea for the smiling Sect Leader, hoping this unfortunate Sect Leader wouldn’t be too surprised when Shanlan takes the stage, and would keep a stable mindset.

...

In the evening, Song the Beautiful put on her dress and sat on a round stool.

”Do you need to eat something? Cultivators, sometimes, do need to eat a bit, right?” Yuchi asked with a smile.

”No need... I’ve had enough for tonight.”

And amidst Yuchi’s jokes.

She curiously asked, ”How was Qingzhu’s match today?”

From outside the Ascension Gate, she viewed Wei Qingzhu, who held the position of her sister. But within the sect, she was her senior sister.

This is a classic instance of seniority based on when one joined, not determined by cultivation level, nor are there any substantial benefits attached to it within the sect. Of course, this is a common arrangement within the Ascension Gate, unlike some other sects.

Ultimately, it’s about the Sect Leader’s goals for the sect.

Whether to foster intense competition within or to maintain harmony.

”Qingzhu lost two out of three matches.”

Song the Beautiful remained charming. Even though she’s seen many beautiful women purely by appearance, it’s the delightful personality that truly matters. A good personality is priceless. Some people have unpleasant personalities—it’s just far too exaggerated, completely like performing in a play.

Regarding Qingzhu, Yuchi also commented with a smile, ”Qingzhu is now at the Mortal Realm; winning or losing doesn’t matter much.”

”That’s indeed the case.”

Song the Beautiful nodded in affirmation:

”Actually, not just at the Mortal Realm level, even for those in the Qi Cultivation Realm, winning or losing isn’t something to worry about. Most cultivators at this stage are still within the sect and haven’t officially started learning combat secret manuals.”
