Chapter 980: Nine hundred and seventy-eight, want quota
"Hanmo and I only just arrived at Green Cloud City, and we also wanted to participate in the selection competition, but we found out that it’s almost over," said Yun Han with a smile. Even though they missed the competition, seeing her was an unexpected delight.
"Brother Xiao Yao is here too? Where is he?" Luo Shu looked around and saw Xiao Yao and Lu Hanmo walking toward them, waving their hands.
"Junior Sister Luo! Congratulations!"
"Junior Sister Luo, you were truly amazing. We are proud of you," they exclaimed.
"Your performance on stage was fantastic. The Sect Master and Deputy Sect Master have been praising you all along," the disciples of Liangyi Sect gathered around, excitedly surrounding Luo Shu and the approaching Lu Hanmo.
Xiao Yao and Yun Han were squeezed out of the crowd, exchanging helpless smiles with each other. Seeing Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo achieve such good results, they were also very happy for them. However, they had just reunited and would have to part ways again soon, and this time for a long separation. Ten years, such a long time!
With everyone crowding around her, Luo Shu walked toward the resting area of Liangyi Sect. Thinking of Yun Han and Xiao Yao, she turned her head and said, "Yun Han, Brother Xiao Yao, please wait here for us, we will come to find you in a bit."
"Okay," Yun Han and Xiao Yao nodded with smiles. They would stay in Green Cloud City for the next couple of days to spend more time with Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, as meeting again later would be difficult.
Surrounded by the crowd, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo walked forward and hadn’t yet reached the resting area when they saw Xun Haotian, accompanied by Ouyang Hai and a group of elders from Liangyi Sect, coming toward them with beaming smiles.
"You have truly brought glory to our Liangyi Sect this time! Speak freely about any reward you desire, and I will do my utmost to satisfy your wishes," Xun Haotian laughed. He never dreamed Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo would achieve first and second place.
"Sect Master, we would like to have two spots," Luo Shu spoke up. She and Hanmo had tried to contact Xiao Yao when they first learned about the selection competition but had been unable to reach him. Hanmo also couldn’t get in touch with Yun Han. Later, she and Hanmo entered a secret realm to cultivate. By the time they emerged, the registration for the competition had ended, and it was too late to contact Xiao Yao and the others.
Now that she and Hanmo had secured the first and second places, gaining so many spots, it was perfect timing as Yun Han and Xiao Yao had also arrived. They naturally wanted to reserve two spots for Yun Han and the group. As for the remaining spots, how Xun Haotian wished to distribute them was no longer their concern.
"No problem at all!" Xun Haotian agreed without hesitation. The spots were earned by them, and even if they decided on the allocation themselves, he wouldn’t utter a word of objection. Compared to those spots, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were the real treasure. As long as they were willing to stay with Liangyi Sect, that was more important than anything. He believed that even when they went to the Earth Realm’s Liangyi Sect, they would continue to shine brightly.
"Thank you, Sect Master!" Luo Shu expressed her gratitude.
"What’s there to thank me for? The spots were won by you. You have the right to decide how they are used," Xun Haotian said with a smile.
"Sect Master Xun! Congratulations!" a grey-robed elder approached with a smile.
Xun Haotian’s brows furrowed slightly, but he greeted the man with a smile, "President Li!" The newcomer was Li Haiming, the president of Qingfeng Academy, with whom they usually had little contact.
"Sect Master Xun, I am here to ask you for a favor and I hope you can grant it," said Li Haiming, smiling amicably at Xun Haotian.
"President Li, if it’s about the spots, I’m afraid I can’t help you. But if it’s something else, please do tell. As long as I can help, I will spare no effort," Xun Haotian replied with a smile. Anyone seeking him out now was likely in search of spots.
Li Haiming’s expression turned somewhat embarrassed, and with a dry chuckle, he said, "I won’t hide it from you; I’m indeed here for a spot. I don’t need much, just one spot from Sect Master Xun would suffice."
Xun Haotian apologetically smiled, "I am truly sorry, President Li! It’s not that I don’t want to help, but the spots have all been arranged already, and my hands are tied."
"What could possibly be beyond Sect Master Xun’s power? Speak up, perhaps I may be of help," said a tall young man arriving with these words.
"If it isn’t Sect Leader Yang, you’re not here for a spot too, are you?" Li Haiming bluntly revealed the man’s intentions. If he couldn’t get one, he hoped others would not either.
"I indeed came for this reason and I hope Sect Master Xun will agree," said Yang Jin, looking at Xun Haotian with a smile. With his motives already laid bare by Li Haiming, there was no point in hiding anymore.
"Sect Leader Yang, I truly regret to inform you! The spots have just been allocated and there are none left," Xun Haotian politely declined, still smiling.
"Sect Master Xun, our Spirit Mountain Sect will not take your spot for nothing; we’ll exchange it for an Immortal Spirit Vein," Yang Jin said. If it weren’t for the fact that not a single disciple from their sect had qualified this time, he wouldn’t be asking favors from Xun Haotian.
"Our Qingfeng Academy will also offer an Immortal Spirit Vein in exchange," Li Haiming chimed in.
"Please don’t make it difficult for me, gentlemen. I really have no spots left," Xun Haotian replied, looking troubled. Once one request is granted, others will follow, and more and more people will ask him for spots.
"It’s quite lively over here!" A middle-aged man in a black robe walked over.
"Sect Master Shui!" When the others saw the man, Xun Haotian and the three men all greeted him at once. Shui Yixun was the Sect Master of Desolated Mountain Sword Sect. Although not one of the Top Ten Sects, its strength was by no means inferior.
"No need for formalities! Sect Master Xun, are there any spots left? Could you spare one for me?" Shui Yixun asked Xun Haotian.
Before Xun Haotian could respond, Yang Jin was already speaking up, "Sect Master Xun said the spots have been allocated, we came for spots as well."
"Indeed, that’s the case," Xun Haotian nodded in agreement.
Shui Yixun raised an eyebrow, "Allocated? Already? To whom?"
"Yes, Sect Master Xun, tell us who got them, and then we’ll leave," Li Haiming said.
"Gentlemen, please do not trouble our Sect Master anymore. The spots weren’t allocated by the Sect Master; they were allocated by us," Luo Shu interjected.
Shui Yixun and the others all turned their attention to Luo Shu, "Are there any spots left?" They could tell she and the man beside her were no ordinary competitors during the competition.
"I have already given the spots to my friends and several disciples of our Liangyi Sect. There are no more left now," Luo Shu replied decisively. The way the three men aggressively pressed for answers was something she did not take kindly to.
