Something’s Wrong with This Game — I Became a God by Mining!

"Junior Disciple Zhang Hongyu, you speak first."

Yang Ling nodded toward the young man who had first spoken. He was an upper Seventh-Rank expert and a disciple of Qingyun Mountain, Devour Heaven Palace.

"Senior Brother Yang, our Devour Heaven Palace has thirteen chiefs. Only three of them have enough merits to contend for the position of Sect Leader's Direct Disciple."

"Respectively, they are Flying Dragon Mountain Chief Lin Zhen, Stone Cavern Mountain Chief Huo Yunzhu, and Pudu Mountain Chief Chi Ling."

Zhang Hongyu spoke slowly:

"These three are all at upper Sixth-Rank and possess sufficiently impressive merits. As for the other chiefs, including you, Senior Brother Yang, although your cultivation is sufficient, your merits are lacking, and you haven't earned the recognition of the higher-ranking elders."

As he spoke, a glimmer of fervor appeared in his eyes:

"As long as we kill Jiu Xingkong this time, your merits, Senior Brother, will be enough. You'll be able to contend for the position of Sect Leader's Direct Disciple too!"

Yang Ling nodded thoughtfully.
