C57 Dragon Saliva Pill(2)

As long as Woo Zhengyang didn't intentionally reveal it, the fluctuations of his internal energy were nearly imperceptible. Others would never be able to discern his true level of cultivation and would simply assume he was a Body Tempering cultivator.

To test this, Woo Zhengyang tried out the steps of the martial practicing platform. As expected, after advancing to the second level of vein refinement, the platform only detected a faint energy fluctuation, lighting up just one step, and even that was dim.

This discovery led Woo Zhengyang to decide that he would present himself as a Body Tempering cultivator from now on. He would only reveal his dual cultivation of body tempering and vein refinement if absolutely necessary, to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

A few days passed, and the Profound Heaven Sect welcomed its annual entrance ceremony for outer disciples. On this day, many servant disciples became official outer disciples, while those who failed to awaken their Origin Genuine Qi left the mountain, their living quarters taken over by a new batch of servant disciples.

To celebrate these servant disciples, the outer sect held a banquet at the martial practicing field, providing an opportunity for new and old disciples to interact. This so-called interaction was mainly for the older disciples to assert their dominance under the guise of guidance, reminding the newcomers that even after joining the outer sect, there are always greater heights to strive for. Humility and diligent cultivation are the true paths forward.

Every year on this day, many seasoned disciples eagerly anticipate the event. However, this year, it has left many of them on edge. The reason? The new disciple, Woo Zhengyang, known as the Outer Sect Number One Madman. Even if he suppresses his abilities, few dare to challenge him.

Just days after joining, he defeated the seventh-ranked disciple. Now, aside from the top six, who would dare to confront him? No one wants to end up like Liu Tianli, who faced his wrath.

Some even speculate that only the top-ranked Zhongli Huo and the enigmatic Dao Wuming could potentially match Woo Zhengyang. Even Lyi Huamei, the second-ranked disciple, can't confidently claim victory over him. With Woo Zhengyang, his power seems to grow unpredictably, and no one doubts his potential.

What surprised everyone was that the day had arrived, the banquet had begun, yet Woo Zhengyang was nowhere to be seen...

This event is a significant occasion for the Profound Heaven Sect. Many use it as an opportunity to challenge those ranked above them. Winning in front of all the Outer Sect disciples and even a few elders would be a moment of great prestige.

While attendance isn't mandatory, all members of the Outer Sect participate, including the top-ranked Zhongli Huo and the notoriously arrogant Dao Wuming, who have never missed it.

Woo Zhengyang, the newcomer, was absent, despite being known as the Outer Sect's Number One Madman. His arrogance was so extreme that it left many people feeling embarrassed.

"Elders, Woo Zhengyang is far too arrogant. In my opinion, he needs to be put in his place, or else where will the dignity of our Profound Heaven Sect be?" said Zhang Tia, the Outer Sect steward.

Recently, Zhang Tia had been living in turmoil, unable to focus even on his training. When Woo Zhengyang suddenly passed the trial of the Dao Mirror, Zhang Tia was surprised but didn't think much of it. He just wanted to find an excuse to cause trouble for Woo Zhengyang, knowing that Yue Liqing would certainly add fuel to the fire. Even if they didn't kill him, they could at least drive him out.

However, Zhang Tia never expected Woo Zhengyang's reputation to skyrocket in the Outer Sect. Not only did he beat up Yue Liqing, but he also killed Liu Tianli. This left Zhang Tia, who had bullied Woo Zhengyang before, feeling increasingly uneasy.

While he was lost in thought, Yue Liqing approached him. After a conversation confirming that Yue Liqing was determined to eliminate Woo Zhengyang, Zhang Tia felt relieved. No matter how talented Woo Zhengyang was, how could he possibly contend with the Inner Sect elders?

"I've heard of this guy recently, and he is indeed arrogant. It's clear he doesn't respect us at all," Zhang Tia said, quickly receiving a response from another Outer Sect elder.

"I believe this young man's dedication to martial arts is strong enough that he'll achieve something significant in the future," said one of the outer sect elders, offering a different opinion. If Woo Zhengyang were here, he would recognize this elder as the one who witnessed his life-and-death duel with Liu Tianli.

"Future achievements are for the future. Right now, he's acting recklessly. Without proper guidance, he might not even have a future. As outer sect elders, we can't just watch him head toward ruin," another elder remarked.

Today, four outer sect elders were hosting the gathering, and two had already expressed their dissatisfaction with Woo Zhengyang. The last one remained silent. Observing this, Zhang Tia felt a surge of joy, realizing Yue Liqing hadn't deceived him.

It made sense. Though Zhang Tia hadn't met Elder Yue many times, he had heard about his style, which was very much like Yue Liqing's. Woo Zhengyang's recent antics had shaken the entire Profound Heaven Sect, and there was no way Elder Yue would let it slide.

"In that case, I'll invite Woo Zhengyang to the gathering!" Zhang Tia said, bowing slightly before leaving.

As he turned away, a cold smile appeared on Zhang Tia's lips. With both the inner and outer sect elders expressing their discontent, he wondered how Woo Zhengyang could possibly continue in the Profound Heaven Sect.
