Chapter 684: Chapter 683: Disciples of Tian Yuan Sect

"Bryson Campbell, I don’t care who you are, where you’re from, how you got your money, or if you might be some sort of spy, but I warn you, don’t you dare create trouble within the Sect, or you won’t even know how you died!" Carrying a birdcage, the young master personally led Yusuf Zuck up Mount Tianyuan. Although the Tianyuan Sect on Mount Tianyuan had guards, the young master came and went as he pleased.

"Yes, yes, dare not, dare not, I’m just at the Higher Fetal Breathing Realm, what kind of trouble could I possibly stir up? I’m just here to seek the Dao!" Yusuf Zuck nodded vigorously.

"That’s for the best." The young master nodded, continuing as he walked, "Since you’ve reached the Higher Fetal Breathing Realm, albeit by throwing money at your progress, this young master will remember your zealous quest for the Dao, so you’ve been arranged to cultivate under an outer-gate master. Of course, you’ll need to be adept at a few things, like keeping your master happy."

"This is quite a special favor I’m doing for you. You should know that newcomers usually start as servants, whether it’s feeding pigs, cooking, or chopping wood and carrying water. You, however, can go straight into training, just complete some daily tasks and pay your dues, and that’ll be enough." The young master seemed to truly favor Yusuf Zuck, winding this way and that, finally stopping outside a small courtyard.

The Tianyuan Sect grounds were vast, larger than any university campus, with various buildings stretching from the bottom to the top of the mountain, inhabited by disciples in uniform.

The young master kicked open the door to the courtyard, and Yusuf Zuck saw two pill cultivators about the young master’s age, both at the Solidifying Pill Realm, squatting in the yard playing with crickets.

That’s right, two Pill cultivators were shouting and cheering while playing with crickets.

Yusuf Zuck was baffled, not understanding what was going on.

"Yo, young master’s here, huh? What’s up?" The two glanced at the young master as he kicked in the door, then continued with their game, seemingly indifferent to his presence.

"Stop playing, it’s broad daylight, the elders will spank you if they see this!" The young master said with a grin, taking a seat.

"Haha, I won!" As soon as the young master finished speaking, one of the pill cultivators burst out laughing, quickly snatching the gold tickets that had been weighed down by rocks from the ground.

"Dammit, bad luck!" The losing pill cultivator kicked his cricket to death, then grumbled, "Young master, what do you want?"

"Here, brought you a new disciple, at the Higher Fetal Breathing Realm!" The young master smacked his lips.

The losing pill cultivator rolled his eyes, then scrutinized Yusuf Zuck up and down, "How come you’re so ugly and warty? Kid, do you know you’re kind of disgusting?" said the pill cultivator, pointing at Yusuf Zuck’s nose.

"Yes, yes." Yusuf Zuck nodded repeatedly, playing the part of a sycophant to the hilt!

"Taking you in is fine, but it’s the usual procedure!" The pill cultivator held up five fingers.

"Someone will fetch it from the city later, it’s all prepared for you, his name is Bryson Campbell, smart kid, quite clever!" The young master said cheerfully.

"Fine, got it, now you two beat it, I want a good chat with my new disciple." The pill cultivator licked his lips.

"Alright, we’re leaving." The young master and the other pill cultivator left the courtyard, chatting and laughing.

As soon as the young master and the other person left, Yusuf Zuck’s new master also suddenly lowered his voice, "If you’re taking me as your master, then present your obeisance gift. I don’t bother with all those mundane formalities. Give me your obeisance gift, and I’ll teach you how to cultivate." The pill cultivator was outright asking for money!

Without a second thought, Yusuf Zuck whipped out four hundred thousand in gold and slapped it in front of the pill cultivator!

"Holy shit!" The pill cultivator leaped up, eyes wide as saucers.

"Damn, you’re some filthy rich tycoon, haha, very good, very good, your obeisance gift is freaking awesome. My name is Hector Cooke; my family’s elder is the second elder of the Tianyuan Sect, and my dear old dad is an inner-gate Golden Core master. Stick with me, and I promise you’ll live the good life! Oh, what was your name again?"

"The disciple is called Bryson Campbell!" Yusuf Zuck stood up and gave a fist-and-palm salute.

"That’s right, Bryson Campbell, Bryson Campbell, I’ll remember that. You’re quite savvy. Let me tell you, the Tianyuan Sect is just so-so. If anyone bullies you in the future, just come back and find your mentor," Hector Cooke couldn’t wait to pocket the four hundred thousand gold, his mouth agape with joy. He had just lost a bet, and now someone was delivering four hundred thousand gold to him, plus the twenty thousand that another person had promised him. So nearly half a million gold was enough for him to squander for a while.

In fact, Yusuf Zuck also understood that these children of officials had formed an industrial chain within the Tianyuan Sect, constantly scheming to make money.

"Yeah, someone come here, come here!" An excited Hector Cooke shouted loudly outside!

"What does Master need?" A young man in a blue shirt immediately ran in and asked.

"Go get a set of clothes and a waist badge for Bryson Campbell, arrange for his accommodation, and tell him the various rules and codes within our doors. Let him familiarize himself for three days. After three days, bring him to me, and I will teach him our Tianyuan Sect’s secret technique!"

"Bryson, work hard. I have high hopes for you. In three days, I will teach you the secret techniques of Tianyuan, the most secretive ones that I do not teach anyone else!" Hector Cooke chuckled, implying that there was an underlying message in his words, undoubtedly expecting further benefits!

This place was full of skinflints, and entering here, one would have to be skinned layer by layer!

"Junior Brother, come with me." The young man sized up Yusuf Zuck a few times; however, it was clear that Yusuf Zuck’s cultivation level was higher than his.

Yusuf Zuck bowed with a fist-and-palm salute to Hector Cooke and then followed the young man to a small courtyard.

Just as they left the small courtyard, Yusuf Zuck, as if performing magic, took out a gold ticket worth ten thousand gold and slipped it into the young man’s hand.

The young man was astounded; his mouth was agape with surprise. Ten thousand gold! Such a generous spender! What does this junior brother’s family do, anyway?

"Please take good care of me in the future, Senior Brother," Yusuf Zuck whispered.

"Of course, I’ll take care of you, definitely take care of you. Your matters are my matters. My name is Alvin Trujillo, and I’ve got your back from now on!"

"Alright." Yusuf Zuck smiled; having gold tickets in the Tianyuan Sect certainly made things easier.

As the two walked on, Alvin Trujillo began to introduce the various buildings: the Book Collection Pavilion, Device Training Pavilion, Pill Practice Pavilion, student dormitories, Martial Practice Field, and so on.

Here, studying did not involve classrooms or classes; it all happened under the mentor-disciple system, with each mentor taking a certain number of disciples.

"Our mentor has told you about his status, right? He has a big backing. Although our mentor’s reputation and cultivation level are not that great in the outer doors, he can still walk sideways here. So, you should often present him some treasures or gold tickets, and he will take care of you."

"Of course, you got in through connections. The reason why our mentor assigned you to me is to keep an eye out to see if you are a spy or have other ulterior motives. But don’t worry, you’re good at handling matters, and I’ll speak well of you!" Alvin Trujillo chuckled.

"Right now, you are in the Higher Fetal Breathing Realm, so you should also start preparing for the Solidifying Pill. What you need to do now, apart from cultivating every day, is to complete two mandatory tasks."

"One is the monthly task issued by the outer doors for disciples in the Fetal Breathing Realm. There are many types of tasks that vary each month, but you must complete it within a month."

"The other task is related to your own interests. After the Fetal Breathing Realm, you must solidify your Golden Core, and relying on our own cultivation, we might not achieve it even in a hundred years. However, the Sect possesses a type of Elixir that can increase your chances of forming a Golden Core. Your task is to find and collect all the celestial and earthly treasures required to exchange for this Elixir. Once you have gathered these treasures, you can go to the Pill Pavilion to claim the Elixir."

"Once you reach the Solidifying Pill Realm, you will become a big shot in the Tianyuan Sect. You could even become a mentor in the outer doors!"
