Chapter 92 There's no need to deliberately fight for it.
Huo Erdan rubbed his hands excitedly: "I heard that the concealed divine rune formation that the sect is using now was jointly developed by you and Grandmaster Fang? It must have been Uncle Fang who provided the ideas, and you just changed a few words to reduce the consumption of profound energy, right?"
"Yes!" Wang Yan said with certainty, "There are many characters I don't know how to write, I just offered suggestions. Uncle Fang is a very kind person and was willing to let me benefit from his help."
"I also heard that you applied for divine runes in the medical and combat branches separately, and many of your inner disciples have already exchanged for them. Your sea of consciousness should have expanded again, and you should have advanced, right?"
Wang Yan's mind raced, and he nodded: "Yes, but he still hasn't surpassed Di Nan."
Huo Erdan then cautiously looked at the door, went over and closed it, looked at it carefully again, and then pressed the isolation array.
Once he was sure the formation had been activated, Huo Erdan lowered his voice again: "I don't have many points, so I can't exchange them, but when I was resting, I heard people talking about it."
"Grandmaster Qin is the most senior member of our sect, and his cultivation is also the highest. Even the sect leader can't defeat him. What you analyzed before, that there was a great battle outside the sect, is true."
"But we were defeated in this great battle, and we were defeated badly. Many of our senior uncles died. It was because the sect leader neglected the enemy's situation and made the wrong decision. Therefore, Grandmaster Qin was very angry and forced the sect leader to go into seclusion. He is not allowed to come out until he reaches the late stage of the Solidifying Yuan Realm."
Wang Yan's eye twitched: "Someone actually made that guess?"
"Yanzi," Huo Erdan said with a serious expression, "I have never met the sect leader, but just because you came up with a new divine script to condense paper, the sect leader is hesitant to let you apply for it, and he also doesn't let Steward Qiu and the others notify others to make changes. I think the sect leader is too stingy."
"I heard that it was Master Deng who appreciated you and earnestly requested Master Qin to transfer you here. Although Master Qin had reprimanded you before, he listened to Master Deng's advice and even got Hall Master Yao to do his best to use the new divine script you submitted for the paper. I admire Master Qin; he is magnanimous and not petty."
Wang Yan glanced at the next room and nodded: "Grandmaster is indeed quite stingy."
Sometimes, it's just that we're like children!
Huo Erdan continued solemnly in a low voice, "I estimate that the sect leader will be out of seclusion for several months. Since both Grandmaster Deng and Grandmaster Qin appreciate you, value you, and promote you to be an inner disciple, then let's follow Grandmaster Qin and Grandmaster Deng well! Anyway, now that you've entered Shenwen Peak, the sect leader will definitely consider you as Grandmaster Qin's man and won't trust you anymore."
Hearing this, Wang Yan looked at him in surprise: "Erdan, are you trying to remind me that from now on, I should treat Master Qin as the boss and not care too much about the sect leader?"
"Grandmaster Qin's feelings for the sect are definitely deeper than the sect leader's. Moreover, Grandmaster Qin is more humane!" Huo Erdan said with certainty, "Between the two of them, I would definitely choose Grandmaster Qin."
"There's something even more important. I've also learned that the sect leader has a grandson with a national-level Sea of Consciousness, named Mo Jingqing. He's thirty-nine years old, previously at the peak of the Profound Breakthrough Realm, and possesses a white four-petaled Flower of Literary Heart. He's currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to the Condensation Yuan Realm. If he succeeds, he will be established as a core Literary Talent of the sect."
"But now that the sect leader has been forced into seclusion, I estimate that Senior Brother Mo's status as a core scholar is in jeopardy. As for Senior Sister Jiang, she has already obtained the inheritances of the three inner peaks of Dan Ding Peak, Huo Lian Peak, and Ren Yi Peak, and has also been recognized as the master of the Void Mirror of Mirroring, which can be considered as a reservation for a core scholar position."
"Yanzi, although your sea of consciousness is currently in a relatively weak state, the Flower of Literary Heart can help you expand it. I think you can try to compete for the status of the core literary talent, so that you can stand together with Senior Sister Jiang."
Wang Yan raised an eyebrow in surprise again: "You actually found out so much?"
Moreover, Lin Yue actually possesses a sub-mirror of the Void Mirror?
It’s too unexpected!
"Because you're so capable, and we have a good relationship!" Huo Erdan said matter-of-factly, "If it weren't for you, how could Master Qin have allowed me to only do menial work for an hour?"
A hint of warmth appeared in Wang Yan's eyes, then he shook his head: "Only disciples at the Condensation Realm are qualified to be established as core disciples. I'm only at the early stage of the Profound Breakthrough Realm, it's too early for me! Instead of competing for this, let's wait for Di Nan to return and help him fight for the treatment of the core grand-disciple of the Fire Refining Peak's Grand Elder. That's easier."
Huo Erdan's gaze remained fixed on him, surprised: "You really don't want to compete for the core scholar position?"
Wang Yan calmly patted him on the shoulder: "There's no need to deliberately compete. Just honestly learn to write the character 'divine,' cultivate diligently, and do your job well. Let's not talk about this anymore. Come on, let's eat!"
In the opposite room, through a specific listening hole, Deacon Jin heard this and smiled with satisfaction: "Grandmaster, you guessed right, Wang Yan really has no interest in the core text."
"That's exactly the mindset we need; it's more suitable for him." Qin Bilian, feeling a bit tired, leaned back lazily in his chair. "Jing Qing has a national-level sea of consciousness, and he carries too much attention and pressure. He cares a lot about this identity. Let him stand in the open and attract other people's attention, giving Wang Yan and Lin Yue enough time to grow."
"Then why did you specifically bring Huo Erdan here?" Deacon Jin joked boldly. "You know perfectly well that Huo Erdan has been inquiring everywhere in Lingya these past two days."
Qin Bilian glanced at him: "He just went through a life-or-death battle, so it's inevitable that he's psychologically unbalanced and needs friends to accompany him. Di Nan isn't here, so only Huo Erdan is suitable."
Qin Bilian never expected that Huo Erdan would talk to Wang Yan about the core text.
After a pause, a slight smile returned to Qin Bilian's eyes: "I didn't expect that there would be a few clever ones among the outer disciples who actually guessed that I forced the sect leader into seclusion. Go and have someone keep an eye on them, see which ones they are, and what their aptitude is like. If they're not particularly good, you can have them take charge of miscellaneous tasks within the sect in the future."
Deacon Jin's lips twitched, then he obediently replied, "Yes!"
He continued to listen.
……
Wang Yan and Huo Erdan talked and ate, and finished their meal in about 15 minutes.
"I'm leaving now. You cultivate diligently, and I'll be waiting to hear good news about your continued dominance. Only when you're secure in the inner sect can I have a better chance in the outer sect." Huo Erdan wiped his mouth with a tissue, then stood up and bid farewell to Wang Yan.
"Wait a minute." Wang Yan wrote down the phrase "No pain, no gain" that had already been submitted and showed it to Huo Erdan: "There are more points to exchange for it now, so don't exchange it. Just use it as is, it'll save you some trouble. I'm just telling you for free, Di Nan is rich, don't worry about him."
Huo Erdan grinned immediately: "I knew it, you're still better to me. I'll remember that, I'm leaving!"
……
Huo Erdan left without warning.
Wang Yan continued writing the new character "神" (shen, meaning god) alone in his room.
I just have a lot on my mind, and I keep thinking about Mo Jingqing that Huo Erdan mentioned.
