Chapter 277 Choosing A Peak (1/2)

By the time sect master Qing Yang’s words faded, every gaze in the area had undoubtedly converged on Zhou Yuan’s body once again.

As the champion of the ceremony, Zhou Yuan would receive special treatment no matter which peak he chose.

Sect master Qing Yang gazed at Zhou Yuan, those deep as the night eyes seemingly smiling as he said, “My Cangxuan Peak is the number one peak in the Cangxuan Sect. If you are willing, you may join.”

“Senior brother sect master, that’s too much!” Peak master Liu Lianyan immediately rolled her eyes at sect master Qing Yang. “The Cangxuan Peak is already the number one peak, why compete with the rest of us?”

She was clearly very satisfied with Zhou Yuan. He had a scholarly look and was more importantly quite the handsome young man. In addition, his talent was pretty astonishing. If he could be recruited into the Snow Lotus Peak, there would surely be another outstanding disciple of the Snow Lotus Peak in the future.

When that happened, the Snow Lotus Peak may even get another person on the Cangxuan Sect’s ten great Chosens. That lass Li Qingchan would also no longer need to represent the Snow Lotus Peak alone.

However, peak master Liu Lianyi had barely finished when the Hongya Peak master Gu Tianhong shook his head and said in a voice akin to thunder, “This kid is suited to external tempering. He should enter my Hongya Peak.”

He looked towards Zhou Yuan as he continued, “Young one, if you enter my Hongya Peak, I promise to promote you to a purple sash disciples in three years.”

His words immediately drew countless envious gazes towards Zhou Yuan. Promotion to a purple sash disciple in three years. This was already rather quick.”

Zhou Yuan was somewhat dazed, clearly not expecting several hegemons to fight over him. These hegemons had been so mysterious and dignified earlier, why had they suddenly become akin to peddlers that were enthusiastically trying to sell their wares...

“Barbarian Gu!” Berated Liu Lianyin as her phoenix eyes glared at Gu Tianhong.

The words had barely left her mouth when the white brow elder from the Spirit Rune Peak stroked his hanging eyebrows and slowly said, “I can see that your Spirit is at a decent level. If you practice the art of Genesis Runes, you will definitely achieve extraordinary things. It just so happens that my Spirit Rune Peak is number one in the area of Genesis Runes in the Cangxuan Sect.”

Peak master Lianyi laughed in anger. These bastards, she had clearly been the one most concerned about Zhou Yuan earlier, but now that he became champion, the rest came to snatch him away one after another.

She cast her gaze at Zhou Yuan and said, “Zhou Yuan, if you enter my Snow Lotus Peak, I will gift you a Genesis Mountain.

These words instantly caused the eyes of many disciples to turn crazed with desire.

Even Zhou Yuan could not help but lick his lips. A Genesis Mountain… one must know that there was only one in the whole of the outer mountains, which was used by several tens of thousands of disciples.

Peak master Liu Lianyi was actually going to bestow an entire Genesis Mountain to a single person, him. Although it would most definitely not be as grand as the one in the outer mountains, the effectiveness of having it for one’s sole usage would naturally be out of this world.

It was said that even in the inner mountains, only the most outstanding disciples would get to enjoy such treatment.

The fact that Zhou Yuan would be given such a reward when he entered the inner mountains just showed how high of an opinion peak master Liu Lianyi had of him.

While the numerous disciples were practically drowning in envy, the Sword Cometh Peak master Ling Jun chuckled softly, an unknown look in his eyes as he looked towards Zhou Yuan and said, “Zhou Yuan, if you enter my Sword Cometh Peak, you will receive the same treatment as the Snow Lotus Peak.”

Lu Xuanyin could not help but tightly clench her jaw when she heard this, but did not dare to interject. The only thing she could do was send hateful and angry glared at Zhou Yuan.

All of this should have originally belonged to Lu Feng.

But now, it had been taken away by a filthy peasant.

Zhou Yuan was slightly stunned as he glanced at peak master Ling Jun. He was naturally aware of Lu Feng’s close ties to the Sword Cometh Peak, and his defeat of the latter to obtain first place could from a certain point of view be akin to humiliating peak master Ling Jun.

Hence why he was quite surprised by the former’s words.

However, the current situation had become quite a headache.

At this moment, a cold and stern voice suddenly rang out, “Sect master and my fellow peak masters, Though it is gratifying that all of you love talent, do not break the rules. The resources of the sect are to be exchanged via contribution. Carelessly gifting resources away is an infringement.”
