Chapter 295 – The nine strongest stewards of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect

In Meng Fan's view, if he were to become a deacon, he would naturally aim for the position with the best benefits.

After all, he absolutely had the capability!

A thousand spirit stones a month was indeed a significant amount in Meng Fan's eyes.

Elder Lin continued explaining to Meng Fan, "In our Shu Mountain Sword Sect, there is no limit to the number of deacon positions. Any disciple who reaches the Condensation Pill Realm can be given a deacon position.

I remember, at the peak, our Shu Mountain Sword Sect had over a thousand deacons!"

Hearing Elder Lin's words, Meng Fan felt a slight shock in his heart.

Although he was somewhat shocked, it wasn't much.

After all, the Condensation Pill Realm was no longer worth mentioning in Meng Fan's eyes.

But if you looked at the secular world and other sects, a thousand Condensation Pill experts would be an extremely terrifying sight.

Even an army of a hundred thousand soldiers from an empire would be nothing in front of a thousand Condensation Pill experts.

Even if it were ten thousand against a thousand, the ten thousand would be annihilated!

This was why Meng Fan believed that the Shu Mountain Sword Sect had the power to flatten an empire.

In fact, if the Shu Mountain Sword Sect went all out, not to mention flattening an empire, even...

"Disciple, although our Shu Mountain Sword Sect has no limit on the number of deacon positions, there is a limit on the Purple-Robed Deacon positions.

There are only nine Purple-Robed Deacon positions in the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect!

If you want to become a Purple-Robed Deacon, you have to push one of the current nine out."

Hearing Elder Lin's words, Meng Fan showed no reaction.

To be honest, this was expected.

From the moment he heard Elder Lin's words, he knew that the Purple-Robed Deacon positions were special.

"Master, what do I need to do to push out a Purple-Robed Deacon?" Meng Fan asked directly, without any hesitation.

"It's simple, defeat them!" Elder Lin said with a smile.

Meng Fan was slightly surprised by this.

He thought there would be some special tests, but it turned out to be so straightforward and brutal.

But... he liked it!

For him, the simplest method was to solve it with a sword.

"Master, what realm are the current nine Purple-Robed Deacons in?"

Elder Lin rolled his eyes and said, "I'm an elder, do you think I care about the realms of those deacons?

If you want to know their realms, go find out yourself!"

Actually, there was nothing wrong with what he said. Someone of Elder Lin's status wouldn't care about the realms of deacons.

Even for some newly promoted elders, Elder Lin probably wouldn't care.

Meng Fan smiled awkwardly. This was indeed something he couldn't ask Elder Lin to investigate.

Just as Meng Fan was about to leave the second floor of the Sword Pavilion and return to his room, Elder Lin still reminded him.

"Although I haven't paid attention to the realms of those Purple-Robed Deacons, their strength is definitely among the best in the Summoning God Realm.

Before you are confident in defeating a Summoning God Realm expert, it's best not to challenge them lightly.

Of course, if you insist on trying, you won't be in any life-threatening danger.

After all, it's just a sparring challenge, and they won't go all out!"

What a load of nonsense.

This was almost it.

Moments later, Meng Fan left the Sword Pavilion and headed to the Scripture Pavilion.

He hadn't visited Senior Disciple Jin at the Scripture Pavilion for a long time. Ever since he learned about Senior Disciple Jin's special relationship with the Sect Master, he subconsciously wanted to keep his distance.

But now that he had reached the Condensation Pill Realm, Meng Fan's thoughts had matured a lot.

Because neither the Sect Master nor Senior Disciple Jin were his enemies. On the contrary, in a certain sense, they were his support.

There was no need to fear them like tigers!

As long as he didn't expose the Sect Master's secret, there wouldn't be any problems.

At the Scripture Pavilion, Senior Disciple Jin was slightly surprised to see Meng Fan. It had indeed been a long time since he had seen him.

"Reached the Condensation Pill Realm so quickly?"

Noticing Meng Fan's realm, Senior Disciple Jin's surprise deepened.

Although it had been a while since they last met, Meng Fan's breakthrough to the Condensation Pill Realm was still quite shocking to him.

If he remembered correctly, the first time he saw Meng Fan, the kid was...

Was it the True Martial Realm or the Qi Refining Realm?

He couldn't remember, as both realms were too distant for him to care about.

But in such a short time, the kid had reached the Condensation Pill Realm?

Indeed, it was outrageous!

Senior Disciple Jin looked at Meng Fan and couldn't help but exclaim, "Elder Wang's judgment was indeed correct. If Elder Wang saw your current realm, he would be extremely pleased."

Mentioning Elder Wang, Meng Fan couldn't help but ask, "Senior Disciple Jin, is there any news about Elder Wang?"

It had to be said that Elder Wang had indeed given Meng Fan significant help in the past.

Since Elder Wang became an "abandoned disciple" of Shu Mountain, a long time had passed, so Senior Disciple Jin wasn't as cautious and dared to mention Elder Wang in the Scripture Pavilion.

Of course, that was the extent of it.

He wouldn't openly reveal specific information about Elder Wang.

"No news!" Even facing Meng Fan, Senior Disciple Jin remained tight-lipped, not mentioning Elder Wang's whereabouts.

Meng Fan smiled and didn't press further.

Because no news was the best news!

"Senior Disciple Jin, I'm not here for news about Elder Wang."

"Then what is it?" Senior Disciple Jin glanced at Meng Fan, slightly rolling his eyes.

He thought to himself that this kid indeed never came without a reason!

Meng Fan didn't hold back, laughing, "Senior Disciple Jin, I've now broken through to the Condensation Pill Realm.

According to the rules, I can be promoted to a deacon of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

I wanted to ask if you have any information about the nine Purple-Robed Deacons?"

Hearing this, Senior Disciple Jin's surprise turned into shock, a clear progression.

"You just broke through to the Condensation Pill Realm and you're already eyeing the Purple-Robed Deacon position? Are you crazy?"

To be honest, Senior Disciple Jin had been in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect for many years and was well-informed in the martial world.

He had seen a lot!

But someone as arrogant and unaware of their limits as Meng Fan was a first.

Granted, he knew Meng Fan was outstanding, he had to admit that.

But no matter how outstanding, one had to learn to crawl before walking!

However, thinking that Meng Fan might not understand the significance of the Purple-Robed Deacons, he felt relieved.

He adjusted his mindset and explained to Meng Fan, "The Purple-Robed Deacons have no special significance, they are simply the nine strongest deacons in our Shu Mountain Sword Sect!

Can you comprehend how terrifying the nine strongest deacons among nearly a thousand deacons are?

It's not just you, a newbie in the Condensation Pill Realm, even if you reached the Summoning God Realm, you wouldn't stand a chance against a Purple-Robed Deacon!"
