The Second Elder creased his eyebrow, "You tell me! We deliberately did not tell Junior Jun anything, but why is she here?"
The Third Elder bit his lower lip, "Another victim falls into her hands. What should we do? Isn't he from the Lower Realm? Perhaps we should separate them immediately."
"No! The bond between master and disciple is sacred, we must not interfere!"
The Third Elder sighed, "Looks like Celestial Hundred Pavillion is doomed to stay as a low-tier sect."
Chen Hao and his five friends were speechless. Feng Ao Xiu just joined the Celestial Hundred Pavillion, but he just made the biggest mistake in his whole life.
Feng Ao Xiu had his reason for following the Fourth Elder, she's the strongest. Everyone could confirm this, the other three elders would have to admit, they will lose if it was a one on one fight with the Fourth Elder. Furthermore, she was the late Sect Master's disciple and was trained to be the next Sect Master.
However, when she was promoted to be an elder and was allowed to take in disciples. That's when everything went downhill. Except for her battle prowess, she could not manage anything else and even keeps wasting the training resources and also the human resources. In the end, the other three elders have to cancel her promotion to the Sect Master. That's why the position of Sect Master in the Celestial Hundred Pavillion has been empty for quite some time.
Meanwhile, unaware of what happened, Feng Ao Xiu smiled brightly. He's satisfied with what he earned.
[My master is so beautiful, I could not get any luckier than this. Most importantly, she is the strongest in this sect.]
The Fourth Elder also smiles, "I'm glad I met you! What is your name my dearest disciple?"
[Ah... Not just beautiful and cute, but also considerate and kind. Especially her soothing voice, it could melt my heart. She called me dearest disciple, this is the highest reward I could get.]
"Master, my name is Feng Ao Xiu."
She nodded cutely and replied, "My name is Jun Yin Ying. Disciple Ao Xiu, nice to meet you!"
Feng Ao Xiu even flirted with his master.
"Jun Yin Ying, Master Jun, such a beautiful name! Master is more beautiful when smiling rather than crying like earlier."
Jun Yin Ying laughs cutely, she seemed happy.
"Thank you for Disciple Ao Xiu's concern. I'm just sad that my last disciple died, but I'm fine now, I got you as my 371st disciple."
"Yes, it can't be helped if your disciple died, what's important is I'm... Wait! What!?"
That's weird! Chen Hao said the Celestial Hundred Pavillion only contains 27 members, but she already has 370 disciples. Some people died, it can't be helped, but the worst-case should be a total loss of fifty per cent in case of war between sects. Which mean there should be at least another 100 disciples left, but it still exceeds by so much.
Feng Ao Xiu unintentionally heard the conversation between Chen Hao and the girls that consoled the Fourth Elder earlier.
"Oh! The Fourth Elder lost her disciple again."
"How long does this one last?"
"I think it's about three weeks."
"That's quite long! the average is one week and a half."
"After having disciple for that long, but he finally died. It is no wonder the Fourth Elder is sad."
"...", Feng Ao Xiu could not help but ask, "Umm... Master Jun, how many disciples did you have?"
"Currently, it's just you!"
"Umm... Where did my three hundred and seventy seniors go? Did they... leave the sect?"
"Unfortunately, they all died..." said Jun Yin Ying while she shook her head, her eyes shows a bit of sadness. Then, she suddenly gets cheerful again, "But, it's fine. What matters is that you are here alive!"
Feng Ao Xiu's mouth twitched, he could not smile. He regretted his decision!
[Ah... Why am I easily deceived by her face?]
***
The Fourth Elder and her only disciple went into the practice room.
Jun Yin Ying couldn't contain her excitement, never would she have thought that she would have a disciple from the Lower Realm. She also found Feng Ao Xiu's spirit is the legendary lightning spirit. She could not have asked for a better disciple.
"But, your cultivation level is too weak." Then she pouted, "This is not fair! After my fiftieth disciple died, I'm not allowed to have resources for my disciples anymore! Disciple Ao Xiu could really use some Pure Qi now!"
Feng Ao Xiu shouted in his heart. [Of Course, you would not get resources, it will just be wasted on the dead!]
"Master, what is Pure Qi?"
Jun Yin Ying smiled again, she really likes when her disciple has a great interest and curiosity, "You see, Pure Qi is..."
Then, she told everything about Pure Qi to Feng Ao Xiu.
Feng Ao Xiu was astonished. Such great medicine exists in the Upper Realm. If the people from the Lower Realm knew, they would have paid millions just to buy a pure coloured spirit stone.

However, the Pure Qi only helps you cultivate until the First Stage of the Ancient Realm. Beyond that, it will only work as a medicine.
After pondering for a little bit, Jun Yin Ying said, "Why don't disciple Ao Xiu cultivate first, while I made the training program suitable for you."
"Yes, Master!" Feng Ao Xiu wiped his sweat off. He did not know what made his seniors dead, but it looks like he could take the first day easily.
Feng Ao Xiu cultivates.
* Fwooosshhh... *
[Too Fast! I've breakthrough already! The Qi in the air comes flowing into me like water. The Upper Realm is fascinating!]
Feng Ao Xiu found that even without the Pure Qi, the people of the Lower Realm could breakthrough to the First Stage of Ancient Realm in their late twenty.
The average age of the people from the Upper Realm entering the Dream Realm, Iron Realm, Jade Realm, and Ancient Realm was 10 years old, 15 years old, 21 years old, and 28 years old respectively. It's the same rate as Feng Ao Xiu's cultivation in the Lower Realm.
Those provided with Pure Qi from early on could start their cultivation from the First Stage of Ancient Realm. The example, Chen Hao, he's three realms above the Ancient Realm even though he was only two years older than Feng Ao Xiu. It was since he was a baby, Chen Hao's parents send him to Celestial Hundred Pavillion. So, he becomes five years old First Stage of Ancient Realm Cultivator.
However, the Pure Qi was monopolized by the large sects. Even, a small one like Celestial Hundred Pavillion has limited Pure Qi. Family Clans have no say in this matter, they're being suppressed by the large faction. It's the reason why almost all people in the Upper Realm joins a sect.
Feng Ao Xiu cultivates all day long, he advances one more stage, now he reached the Iron Sky Realm.
His progress may seem bland, compared to the other disciple. But, in fact, it was astonis.h.i.+ng. Not even a genius from the Upper Realm could say he made a breakthrough from the First Stage to the Third Stage of Iron Realm without using the Pure Qi.
Jun Yin Ying come to check on her disciple, "Disciple Ao Xiu, I have good news!"
She took a jug of wine out of her storage ring and handed it to Feng Ao Xiu.
Feng Ao Xiu sniffs it, but it does not have the fragrance of wine, "Master Jun, what is this?"
"It's the Pure Qi!"
"This is the Pure Qi!?", Feng Ao Xiu was surprised. "Didn't you say you are not given any resources by the sect?"
Jun Yin Ying cutely puts her index finger on her lips. This gesture made her even more attractive and lovely. "Ssshhh... I stole it! It's all for Disciple Ao Xiu."
Feng Ao Xiu hearts wavered. His master dares to steal some Pure Qi for her disciple, isn't she the embodiment of a great master? A woman this kind and caring couldn't possibly kill her disciple!
Feng Ao Xiu felt relieved, his master was not what he thought she would be.
Then, Jun Yin Ying took a spear from her storage ring.
Feng Ao Xiu asked, "Master, what is that spear for?"
Jun Yin Ying chuckled, "It's for your training!"
"Oh! I will learn the way of the spear!"
Jun Yin Ying shook her head, "No, you will be pierced by the spear!"
Feng Ao Xiu, "..."
"Disciple Ao Xiu, hurry up and drink the Pure Qi! After you advance to the First Stage of the Ancient Realm, we will continue to another practice using this spear!"
Feng Ao Xiu, "..."
