Chapter 32: Sect-Endorsed Bullying
The topmost point of the Steel Searing Heaven Peak was a flattened arena of about five thousand square meters.
The four hundred-something new disciples of the Crimson Snow Sect were all standing here, divided into forty circles. Across the border of the circular area, more than a dozen senior disciples were staring at them with a somewhat hungry gaze.
Elder Long, the mountain master, was striding through the gaps between these circles, his face clouded in fury. This was their first lesson in martial cultivation under the sect. Naturally, he wanted to leave a deep impression on their young hearts.
"Almost all of you reached my class half an hour late. What excuse do you have for yourselves?"
"Elder, the first lecture ended almost at the same time yours is supposed to begin!"
"How could we cross the distance between these two mountain peaks with mere minutes in our hand?"
"The routine has to be readjusted!"
"Silence!"
With a spirited roar, Elder Long snuffed out the protesting voices in the crowd.
"The lecture routine is just fine as it is. That’s how it has always been since the birth of this sect. The intent behind it should be clear to anyone with a working brain.
"We want you to reach the classes in time, regardless of the distance and the short timeframe for the journey. If any of you have a working brain, shout it out loud for the idiots around you!"
