Chapter 1390 - Setting Off for the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm
Although the competition for low-class disciples had ended and the hundreds of thousands of participants gradually returned to their usual cultivation, those who ranked in the top hundred—especially the top ten—went straight into seclusion, eager to refine their skills with the rich rewards they had just received.
In this martial meet, the sect hadn’t been stingy, awarding large amounts of elixirs, treasures, and merit points. As a result, many disciples were expected to experience a sharp rise in strength in the near future.
Moreover, those who received an Immortal Breakthrough Pill would soon cast their immortal platform and advance into the Immortal Platform realm.
Naturally, the entire sect buzzed with conversation about the tournament, particularly about the once-obscure names who dazzled everyone with their brilliance.
For example, Chen Fan, Huang Wuji, and a few others.
“I never expected Chen Fan to take first place!”
“Same! But... don’t you think the ending felt a little flat? Si Kong broke through in the middle of their fight and basically handed first place to Chen Fan on a silver platter.”
“That reminds me that it’s been like what? Twenty days since Chen Fan was summoned to the Heavenly Punishment Great Hall. I heard through the grapevine that the Heavenly Punishment Elder has already taken Chen Fan in as his disciple. He’s really ascended to heaven in a single step.”
“Grapevine? Please, it’s confirmed. With a powerful backer like the Heavenly Punishment Elder, Chen Fan can do whatever he wants in the sect. The Hua Alliance must be grinding their teeth in fury right now.”
“Hoho, don’t exaggerate. Sure, his master can shield him from pressure coming from the higher-ups, but when it comes to rivalries within the younger generation, Chen Fan will have to face those challenges alone.”
