"That's a good idea!"

Huh...?

At that moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the ten new disciples who were standing chatting happily. As soon as they heard it, they recognized it, and their expressions visibly turned pale.

"You don't have to worry. As for what you guys said, I've heard it all, and I don't care what you think. As long as you don't betray the sect and don't disgrace the sect, that's enough. As for your vengeance, the sect and I will not interfere with it. Unless they come and do something to you guys first, I and the sect are willing to help."

This was Zheng-Fu's voice. Actually, he did not disappear; he stood in the same place. Zheng-Fu wanted to see what these disciples would do after he had finished speaking. Then he accidentally overheard all ten talking, so he made a slight noise because this was related to the sect.

"I know who you are. And what you heard was our true reason. I, as their big brother, solely accept my guilt," said a tall and handsome young man with a serious expression, glancing around in search of Zheng-Fu.

"Big Brother!!!"

"Big Brother, don't say that. We are brothers, and we'll not leave you, despite everything."

"Yes! We'll die with you!"

The remaining nine men did not allow their big brother to be anything alone. If he had to die, they would also want to die because they were all left together.

"Why are you talking about death? I've already told all of you that as long as you don't discredit this sect and betray my sect, I won't mind all of you. I'll not interfere with any of your grudges. By the way, who is your enemy? Can you tell me?"

Zheng-Fu continued to explain to the ten of them that he did not want to do anything to them. As long as they were doing good to the sect, that would be enough. Anyway, Zheng-Fu also wanted to know who their enemy was in case anything happened in the future, so he could handle it properly.

"Our enemy is the Artsy Water Sect, sir."

Huh...?

"Artsy Water Sect!?"

"Yes, sir. Our father is from the southern Wasteland, and our mother is from Artsy Water Land, where she was a disciple there. But one day, when we all learned about spells from our mother, the people from the Artsy Water Sect came to our house."

"They came to our house to take us to the sect. But our father refused. He got in the way of one of the elders of the sect. But our father's energy level was only the first level of the Immortal stage, so he couldn't fight that elder."

"As for our mother, she had tried to save our father, but she couldn't resist that old bastard either. Our mother was severely injured. As for us at that time, we were young, so we couldn't do anything. We couldn't escape; our legs couldn't move because we were frightened."

"We… We could only… stand and watch our father and mother being attacked by old damn Sui-Yi-Tong!"

Bang!!!

When referring to the names of those who injured their parents, the young man could not help but burst out of energy, stomping his foot hard on the ground until a loud noise rang out, before calming himself to cool down slowly.

"Is there such a grudge against the Artsy Water Sect? Ha ha ha. You guys are so reckless that you're going to fight for revenge against the Artsy Water Sect's people. Plus, that person is also the great elder of the sect. But anyway, whoever your enemy is, I don't care. Just do as I say and that's enough."

Zheng-Fu said that with a slight laugh. Even though he now knew who their enemy was, he did not care even a bit because he was now at the fourth level of the Divine Emperor stage and could even fight with the martial masters three levels higher than him.

Of course, the enemy the young man said was also Zheng-Fu's enemy, but he just did not let them know, because if he had said that, all ten of them would not have thought of trying to do anything themselves and would only have waited for him to take revenge on their behalf.

As for the young man who was the big brother, he waited patiently for Zheng-Fu's reply after he had told him his true reason. He was also prepared to accept his fate if Zheng-Fu thought of rejecting him and expelling him from the sect.

But the result was beyond what he had imagined. Not only would Zheng-Fu not drive them away, but he also told them to try harder so they could get their revenge soon. These words made their hearts rejoice until a smile appeared on their faces after a long while of tension because of thinking too much.

"Thank you very much, Young Master Zheng-Fu."

"We're very grateful to Young Master Zheng-Fu."

The ten of them all bowed to Zheng-Fu, although they did not know where he was. And all their actions were under the eyes of many other new disciples. They wondered what was wrong with them acting like that.

"What are they doing? I saw them standing up straight with their mouths furrowed for a long time before finally bowing their heads!!?"

"How do I know? If you want to know, go and ask them yourself!"

"No! They're the Immortal stage cultivators. Who would dare to mess with them!?"

"I agree. I'd rather remain in the dark."

The surrounding new disciples eventually dispersed to their boardinghouse when there was nothing for them to pry into anymore. But there were still some that had not gone anywhere because they wanted to begin exploring all the places they could enter.

Someone went to the Skill Hall hoping to see the skills. But they could only enter the first floor since they were still only servant disciples. Whenever they were outer disciples, they would be able to go up to the second floor. Others considered going to the Medicine Hall to buy various medicines and pills that enhanced their bodies' performance.

The Medicine Hall at the Beyond Earth Sect had a lot of these pills, and they were cheaper than outside. So, this was their chance to buy them to optimize themselves.

A week had passed...

Now, there were over eight hundred new disciples who had not reported themselves yet. Most of these people were far away, thus delaying their journey. However, most of the new disciples had already entered the sect, and their number was almost complete.

With the increasing number of disciples, Zheng-Fu ordered the building of many more boarding houses and training courts to accommodate the number of them.

Over the past week in the main hall, many people there had increased their energy levels. Elder Hai-Tu had advanced to the second level of the Divine Emperor stage. As for Dong-Kuang and Hai-Dong, the two had made great progress. The more time passed, the greater the understanding of the energy they absorbed.

They might soon be able to break through the advanced Divine Emperor stage for sure. As for the others, most of them had entered the Immortal Soul stage now. Only Wu-Xiao, Xiao-Ming, Zhao-Ke, and Tian-Zhong remained at the Immortal stage.

But with another week left, Zheng-Fu expected that all of them would be able to break through to the Immortal Soul stage. Or maybe they need more time to absorb energy. Because each person had a different energy absorption rate, their level of development speed was different.

The cultivators with higher energy levels consumed more energy than those with lower levels. Take Elder Hai-Tu as an example. He had to absorb many times more energy than others. However, the overwhelming energy contained within the pill would be able to help the elder enter the third level of the Divine Emperor stage in a shorter time.

For the others at the lower levels, how high they could shift up would have to wait and see. But no matter how the effect of everyone's energy level turned out, Zheng-Fu was also very pleased and satisfied with this initial leveling up, for it made him more confident that his sect and his clan would be safer.

Of course, they might not be able to fight against the big sects, but it was enough to protect themselves from the kingdoms around them and other sects from kingdoms who were dishonest with them, or even the Assassin Organization and the Cult of the Savage Evil. Zheng-Fu thought that if they had to fight, the chances that they could protect themselves would be greater.

But this was just the first energy level increase. Zheng-Fu still had two sets of pills left to be given to everyone after they finished their cultivation for this first step.

Inside Zheng-Fu's underground laboratory...

[The Dancing Lance Skill]

Boom!!!

An energy wave forming a giant spear surrounded by colorful flowers appeared after Zheng-Fu used the skill. The giant spear flew toward the practice target before the target exploded into pieces. But the giant spear still had energy left. It shot straight into the wall of the room behind the practice target. But before it crashed into the wall, the giant spear disappeared.

Whoosh!!!

"It's a great skill. But it's more suitable for women," Zheng-Fu said, satisfied with the stance skill he had just tested.

This skill was a standalone skill with no additional stances. But even so, it was a mystical skill. Zheng-Fu spent a week innovating and improving it to the best of its ability. However, this skill was more suitable for women than for men.

Unless the guys liked beauty, they would probably be able to use it without getting stuck or feeling awkward about dancing. Anyway, Zheng-Fu invented this skill so that the female disciples in the sect could choose a beautiful skill. Besides the spear skill, Zheng-Fu also invented the sword, saber, bow, whip, and halberd skills. This set of skills was all suitable for women.

"Well, with only one week left, Elder Hai-Tu should be able to absorb all the energy from the pill. Others may be delayed by a day or two or more. But I've promised Lu-Bei that I'm going to help him deal with the ancient ruin and monster beasts."

Zheng-Fu wiped the sweat trickling down his forehead and spoke about what he needed to do before he left for the capital in the next week.

During the rest of this week, Zheng-Fu thought that he would spend all his time thinking and creating advanced and mystical skills as much as he could. Of course, it would not be easy to create mystical skills. But for advanced high-level skills, they were not difficult for him.
