My strength increases by one percent every day; I can destroy stars with my bare hands.

"Junior Sister Li!"

Just as the disciples were all looking forward to a good show, a disciple dressed in the robes of a core disciple strode over.

The disciples of the Xuanxin Sect are divided into miscellaneous disciples, outer disciples, inner disciples, core disciples, and true disciples...

Each level of disciple represents strength and status.

The disciples looked at the newcomer with awe and envy.

They never know in their lifetime whether they will become core disciples.

To become a core disciple, one must not only have sufficient cultivation, but also break through within a certain age range.

If you are past the required age, you will not be able to advance even if you have the necessary cultivation level.

The visitor was Wu Chuanfeng, a disciple of Elder Qingxuan. Li Ling'er had received care from Elder Qingxuan and had also interacted with Wu Chuanfeng several times.

"Senior Brother Wu."

Li Ling'er bowed slightly to Wu Chuanfeng.

Zhao Ying, who had originally intended to continue her attack, fell silent upon seeing the core disciple arrive, not daring to even breathe loudly.

There was even a deep fear in her eyes, worried that Li Ling'er would report to Elder Qingxuan and make her suffer the consequences.

"Junior Sister Li, Master summons you."

Wu Chuanfeng had a smile on his face, showing absolutely no airs of superiority that one would expect from a core disciple.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Although she didn't know why Elder Qingxuan had summoned her, she dared not delay.

"Junior Sister Li, come with me."

Wu Chuanfeng led the way for Li Ling'er, making countless people extremely envious.

"Just who exactly is this Li Ling'er?"

"The elders took good care of her, and even the core disciples were kind to her."

"Her identity must be extraordinary; we should try to get to know her in the future."

"..."

After the two left, the disciples discussed it among themselves.

Fang Qing's eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if she were deep in thought.

Zhao Ying and the others turned pale, worried that Li Ling'er would complain to Elder Qingxuan.

In a small courtyard inside the inner sect, Zhang Cuier had just finished her cultivation when another disciple of Elder Qingxuan came to summon her.

"Junior Sister Zhang, Elder Qingxuan has summoned you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Cuier was surprised, wondering why Elder Qingxuan had summoned her.

Elder Qingxuan is the elder who manages the core disciples, and her power and status are above those of her master.

Zhang Cuier dared not refuse and immediately left with the disciple who came.

"Senior brother, why did Elder Qingxuan summon me?"

On the way, Zhang Cuier couldn't help but ask the passersby for information.

The disciple who delivered the message smiled slightly and said, "Junior Sister Zhang, don't worry, it's a good thing."

The disciple who delivered the order did not give a clear answer, leaving Zhang Cuier feeling uneasy and uncertain.

Before long, the two arrived at Elder Qingxuan's palace.

"Um!"

Li Ling'er and Zhang Cui'er hadn't seen each other for several months, and when they met again, there was an insurmountable sense of unfamiliarity between them.

Zhang Cuier's expression changed slightly. She wanted to bow to Li Ling'er, but then she suddenly woke up.

Now that she was an inner disciple of the Xuanxin Sect, no longer a maid in the Li family, she no longer needed to be subservient to anyone.

Li Ling'er glanced at Zhang Cui'er, said nothing, and entered the main hall first.

"call!"

Zhang Cuier took a deep breath to calm herself before entering the main hall.

When the two arrived, Elder Qingxuan and Ouyang De had been waiting for a long time.

"Disciple greets Elder."

"Disciple greets Elder."

The two bowed respectfully to Elder Qingxuan.

"No need for such formalities."

Elder Qingxuan smiled broadly, his gaze fixed on Li Ling'er.

At this moment, Ouyang De stood up, walked quickly to Li Ling'er's side, and bowed respectfully to her.

"Ouyang De greets Miss."

This scene caused Li Ling'er and Zhang Cui'er's expressions to change, as they were both caught off guard.

They could sense the aura emanating from Ouyang De and knew that he was a powerful expert at the Qi Refining Realm.

Yet this powerful figure, whom they looked up to, actually bowed respectfully to Li Ling'er. How could this not be shocking?

Ouyang De explained, "Miss, I have been ordered by Lord Li to deliver some cultivation resources to you."

Upon hearing Ouyang De's explanation, Li Ling'er was overjoyed.

She wasn't happy to receive cultivation resources; rather, it was because her brother had sent someone to visit her.

Zhang Cuier froze, as if struck by lightning.

After joining the Xuanxin Sect, her mindset changed.

They believed that Li Xuancang was only at the Gangqi Realm and was not worth mentioning in front of the Xuanxin Sect.

That's why she stopped paying attention to Li Ling'er and even cut off all contact with her.

Seeing that Li Xuancang could command a Qi Condensation Realm expert to come, the quick-witted girl knew what this meant, and her heart was filled with turmoil.

"How is my brother doing lately?"

Li Ling'er had so many questions she wanted to ask; she had never missed her family so much.

"Don't worry, Miss. Lord Li is doing well. He is now serving as the garrison commander of Ganquan County and has already broken through to the Tongxuan Realm. You don't need to worry."

Ouyang De made no attempt to conceal anything and revealed Li Xuancang's current situation to everyone in the hall.

This was Li Xuancang's instruction to him: to let the Xuanxin Sect know that he had already reached the Tongxuan Realm and held a high position.

In this way, the Xuanxin Sect would know that Li Ling'er had a Tongxuan Realm expert backing her, and no one would dare to make things difficult for her.

"boom!"

These words sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the hall, and Zhang Cuier even staggered.

They all knew what the Profound Realm meant; it was a realm they could only dream of, a realm they could never reach in their lifetime.

The entire Xuanxin Sect has nearly a million disciples, but only a few dozen experts at the Tongxuan Realm.

Each one of them is a pillar of the sect, which shows how important they are at the Profound Realm.

With a Transcendent Realm expert as her backer, Li Ling'er could act with impunity within the Xuanxin Sect.

"Really? That's great!"

Li Ling'er cheered with joy, genuinely happy for her brother and proud of him.

Her brother was a master of the Profound Realm, and she felt honored to be a part of it.

Ouyang De handed over the resources he brought to Li Ling'er. The spiritual energy was almost overflowing, and the fragrance of the pills filled the hall.

Everyone stared intently at these cultivation resources with burning desire.

"Such abundant spiritual energy indicates that these are definitely mid-grade spirit stones, and quite a few at that."

"Such a rich fragrance of elixir; this must be a high-grade elixir."

"So many rare and precious materials, each one is extraordinary."

"..."

Everyone stared intently, their eyes filled with envy.

Elder Qingxuan was also moved, realizing that even if he gave his all, he might not be able to provide these resources.

Li Ling'er could also see the value of these resources, and hurriedly put them away.

Elder Qingxuan looked away, glanced at Li Ling'er, and made a decision in his heart.

"Ling'er, I've recently been considering taking on a disciple. Would you be willing to become my apprentice?"

With Li Ling'er's qualifications, she is absolutely unworthy of becoming Elder Qingxuan's disciple.

But now, in order to get closer to Li Xuancang, Elder Qingxuan has decided to take her as his disciple.

Li Ling'er subconsciously looked at Ouyang De. Compared to Elder Qingxuan, she was more willing to believe the person her brother sent.

Ouyang De nodded slightly to her.

"Disciple greets Master."

Li Ling'er had no more doubts and bowed deeply to Elder Qingxuan.

Elder Qingxuan got up and came to her side, helping her up.

"Haha, okay, get up now."
