451: What? Such a good thing exists?
"This?"
Su Yun heard this and pondered for a moment.
If it was as True Person Taixuan said.
Him becoming the Taixuan Holy Master now actually had more benefits than drawbacks.
At least the cultivation resources he could control would increase.
With the identity of the Taixuan Holy Master, there were many things he could do more conveniently.
Thinking of this, Su Yun looked at True Person Taixuan, cupped his hands, and said respectfully:
"Holy Master, I understand."
True Person Taixuan nodded slightly upon seeing this and sat back on the Holy Master's throne.
He spread his hands and spoke loudly to all the surrounding Elders:
"When successive Taixuan Holy Sons succeed to the position of Taixuan Holy Master,"
"they will pass the tests of the Seven Great Peaks' Peak Masters or Elders under the witness of all Taixuan Cultivators to obtain the recognition of the Seven Great Peaks."
"So now, everyone, please move with me to the Arena sparring area."
"In a moment, all the Elders can test the Saint Su Yun there!"
"Yes, we obey the Holy Master's command!"
The Elders hurriedly rose and spoke in unison.
Soon, everyone turned into streaks of light and left the Council Hall... Second Layer of Taixuan Realm.
Arena sparring area.
Usually, many Disciples came here to spar with each other and improve their strength.
Today was even more lively.
All ordinary Disciples, Core Disciples, and Personal Disciples had come, crowding the entire area.
The dozens of Arenas in the Arena sparring area had also directly disappeared today.
In their place was a small space covering a radius of dozens of miles, containing a massive field.
Since the Taixuan Elders had not arrived yet, the Taixuan Disciples began to whisper among themselves:
"Do you know why the Elders summoned all of us Disciples here?"
"I don't know!"
"I don't know either. Could it be to gather us to explore a Secret Realm?"
"No, exploring a Secret Realm wouldn't involve calling all the Disciples!"
"Now that the Arena sparring area has been set up like this, could it be a Disciple Competition?"
"That's not right either, is it?"
"Didn't the competition just finish a while ago?"
"Wait, don't you think someone is missing?"
"Let me see... Hmm... the Saint isn't here!"
"Could he be in secluded cultivation again?"
"He's so diligent!"
"The Saint is truly a role model for our generation!"
"If I hadn't followed the Elders and seen with my own eyes the Saint undergoing his Enlightenment Tribulation,"
"I would really find it hard to believe that the Saint is already a powerhouse of the Enlightenment Layer One Realm."
...Just as the Taixuan Disciples were making their private guesses.
A group of Taixuan Deaconss turned into streaks of light and flew to various parts of the Arena sparring area, then lined up neatly.
Following that, dozens of streaks of light flew from the direction of the Discussion Peak and stopped directly in front of the Taixuan Disciples.
It was the Taixuan Holy Master's group, including Su Yun and the other Taixuan Elder.
"They're here, the Elders are here!"
"Huh? The Holy Master is here too?"
"Hiss, such a big lineup. Are they going to announce some major event?"
"Isn't it obvious? All the Elders are here."
"I've been a Taixuan Disciple for several hundred years."
"This is the first time I've seen so many Elders appear at the same time."
"Wait, why is the Saint also beside the Elders?"
"Could it be something about the Saint?"
...True Person Taixuan stood at the front of the crowd and waved his hand.
The Taixuan Disciples immediately fell silent.
"All Taixuan Disciples, today I have a major announcement to make."
"That is, our Saint Su Yun, after passing the tests of our Holy Land's Seven Great Peaks,"
"will officially become the new Taixuan Holy Master!"
His voice wasn't loud, but the Taixuan Disciples present heard it very clearly.
This sentence immediately left the Taixuan Disciples incredibly shocked:
"The Saint is becoming the Holy Master?"
"Is it that fast?"
"What? There's such a good thing?"
"I'm a Personal Disciple in charge of purchasing Spirit Medicine."
"Every year, I represent the Peak Master to report the situation to the Holy Master."
"Doesn't that mean I'll have the chance to meet the Saint alone?"
"This is truly wonderful!"
"Slurp~"
"I support it! I bet the Holy Masters of the other Nine Great Holy Lands aren't that young!"
"I support it too. After all, the Saint's strength is heavenly, far exceeding Cultivators of the same level."
"Now that he has achieved a Breakthrough to the Enlightenment Realm, he must be even more powerful!"
"He is more than qualified to be the Taixuan Holy Master."
...At this time, in front of the crowd, An Yuyao and the others didn't go to stand with their respective peaks' teams; instead, the four women formed a group of their own and stood to the side.
"Su... Su Yun is going to be the Holy Master?"
"I didn't hear wrong, did I?"
"This is just too amazing!"
An Yuyao's pale gold eyes widened, her pink lips slightly parted, and she spoke in a surprised tone.
"Junior Brother Yun is truly amazing!"
A flicker of joy passed over Luo Qingshuang's cold and beautiful face.
She couldn't help but feel some emotion in her heart.
When she first met Su Yun, he was still a small Cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
After he saved her, she thought it was just a chance encounter.
So she had intended to silently repay Su Yun for saving her life.
But she didn't expect that shortly after, Su Yun would directly become her Junior Brother.
Later, their relationship went a step further, and they directly became Dao Companions.
Now Junior Brother Yun has truly grown up and is about to become the Taixuan Holy Master.
This made her feel a bit lonely, as her strength was far behind Junior Brother Yun's.
But at the same time, she was extremely happy for Junior Brother Yun.
To the side, Mu Wanning's beautiful eyes looked straight at Su Yun's figure, her heart filled with heat.
While Leng Xirou's beautiful eyes flickered, and she thought to herself:
"As expected of my, the White Fox Empress's, Dao Companion."
"Hmm~ when should I spar with Su Yun again?"
Because someone else had shared the load over the past two days, she hadn't enjoyed herself to the fullest.
Thus, she was itching to challenge Su Yun again... In front of the crowd.
True Person Taixuan nodded with satisfaction when he heard that most of the Taixuan Disciples expressed their approval.
It was just as he had expected.
The Taixuan Disciples basically all idolized Su Yun.
"Now, I invite the Elders of each peak to begin testing Su Yun!"
True Person Taixuan continued to speak loudly.
According to the process, every Taixuan Holy Master must undergo the tests of the Seven Great Peaks' Elders before taking office.
This time was no exception, aside from testing whether the Saint had enough strength to serve as Holy Master,
it was also to showcase the new Holy Master's strength to all the Taixuan Disciples.
If the new Holy Master's talent and strength were extremely high—strong enough to lead the Holy Land to become even stronger—it would give the Taixuan Disciples a greater sense of belonging to the Holy Land.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Elders who had been discussing enthusiastically immediately shut their mouths.
If they hadn't seen Su Yun undergoing the Enlightenment Tribulation,
they would certainly have stepped forward proactively to test Su Yun.
But after seeing Su Yun undergoing the Enlightenment Tribulation,
who would still be brave enough to test Su Yun?
The Elders in the Enlightenment Realm felt they couldn't beat Su Yun.
And the Elders in the Tribulation Crossing Realm felt that fighting Su Yun with their Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivation would be like bullying the small.
Another important reason was that they felt their strength might not necessarily be stronger than Su Yun's.
If they won, it would be fine, but if they lost, it would be too embarrassing.
