The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 7 The Wonders of Sect Prestige
Translator: 549690339
Even Ye Feng was stunned.

He didn’t know why Huo Yunjie had a breakthrough.

[Sect Prestige: 15]

At that moment, Ye Feng fell into deep thought as these words emerged in his line of sight.

Sect Prestige began to slowly rise from the moment Huo Yunjie restrained Si Taijian and had people from various sects cheering for him.

And when the Sect Prestige broke through 10, Huo Yunjie’s cultivation level also broke through.

This led Ye Feng to have many bold speculations.

Can Prestige Points lead disciples to a breakthrough?

Or did it mean that Prestige Points could make the Sect more famous and lucky, or something else?

Ye Feng’s mind was filled with questions.

“Ding, Sect Prestige Value represents the degree of the Sect’s fame and is also a symbol of the Sect’s fortune. When a person acknowledges the Sect you belong to, Sect Prestige Value +1. The higher the Prestige Value, the stronger and more famous the Sect’s fortune becomes, and the more fortune is distributed among the disciples,” the System chimed in out of the blue, nearly startling Ye Feng.

But after hearing the explanation, he finally understood.

“If Prestige Value represents fortune, then perhaps when the Prestige Value broke through 10, it was like crossing a threshold, which is why Huo Yunjie’s cultivation bottleneck loosened and he made a breakthrough to Qi Refinement Level Five on the spot,” he thought.

“It seems I have to work hard to make the Misty Sect more widely acknowledged, constantly increase the Sect Prestige, and ensure the disciples are as though endowed with luck empowerment, making their cultivation much easier.”

Ye Feng sorted through the information about Sect Prestige in his mind.

At this time, after a brief moment of shock, the crowd burst into an uproar.

“Huo Yunjie actually has an on-the-spot breakthrough to Qi Refinement Level Five, and he even displayed a Perfect Stage 「Fiery Cloud Palm」, it’s just terrifying!”

“How could his luck be so good? If he hadn’t had an on-the-spot breakthrough, he’d surely have lost by now.”

“It seems that the Misty Sect’s destiny is far from over.”

All the Sect Leaders murmured hurriedly.

“Are all three disciples of the Misty Sect monsters?”

Steward Zhou was also stunned in place.

He had practiced many spells, and had mastered several to the Perfection Stage.

But he was at the Peak of Qi Refinement Level Nine, just one step away from entering the Element Gathering Realm, a veteran Cultivator.

In contrast, Huo Yunjie had merely broken through to Qi Refinement Level Five.

“This Sect has secrets!”

Steward Zhou looked meaningfully at Ye Feng, “However, based on the current performance, the disciples of the Misty Sect are merely proficient in their spells, while their cultivation levels are still quite ordinary.”

As a steward of Whitefloat City, he was worldly and knowledgeable. He had even heard of prodigies who broke through to Qi Refinement Level Nine in their teens, so he was only surprised for a moment.

On the other side.

Scarlet Serpent Sect Leader Zhao Dajiang was furious.

“It’s bad enough to have an on-the-spot breakthrough, but to be able to perfect their spells? I seriously suspect they are cheating!”

Zhao Dajiang was so angry he slammed his wheelchair and stood up, cursing furiously.

“Are you doubting this steward?”

Steward Zhou swept his gaze around, releasing the immense presence of a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refinement Level Nine, rendering Zhao Dajiang, who was only at Qi Refinement Level Seven, completely overwhelmed.

“No, not at all.”

Zhao Dajiang, realizing his slip, and worried about being resented by Steward Zhou, promptly apologized.

Steward Zhou snorted and looked at Si Taijian, who lay motionless on the ground, confirming his defeat, and then announced:

“The third battle is won by Huo Yunjie of the Misty Sect. The final result of this clash between the two Sects is two defeats and three victories for the Misty Sect, securing the overall victory.”

As he said this, Steward Zhou extended his hand to Zhao Dajiang, “Sect Leader Zhao, hand over your Sect’s Territory Deed.”

Zhao Dajiang’s face was ashen.

He dared not refuse, as to do so meant opposing Whitefloat City, and no good end would come from it.

“Take it!”

With a livid face, Zhao Dajiang handed over a document to Steward Zhou, and without even taking his wheelchair, flew away on his sword.

“So the Sect Leader of the Scarlet Serpent Sect isn’t really a cripple!”

Ye Feng suddenly realized.

“Zhao Dajiang certainly isn’t a cripple, sitting in a wheelchair is just for show.”

Steward Zhou came over and handed the territory deed of the Scarlet Serpent Sect to Ye Feng, “Sect Master Ye, this item now belongs to you.”

Ye Feng took the deed but seemed somewhat troubled.

The location of the Scarlet Serpent Sect’s territory was several miles away from here, inconvenient to use once obtained.

“If Sect Master Ye does not need the territory deed of the Scarlet Serpent Sect, you can let the City Lord’s Mansion reclaim it. As compensation, they can give you 100 lower-grade spirit stones and ten bottles of ‘Spirit Eye Liquid’.”

Steward Zhou, seeing the hesitation on Ye Feng’s face, added.

“Sect Master Uncle, I… I won.”

At that moment, Huo Yunjie finally stepped down from the arena. His face was slightly pale due to his previous exertion.

Ye Feng looked at the three disciples, Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, and Li Jiaojiao, then at Steward Zhou, and said:

“The right to decide what to do with this sect territory deed, I choose to give to the three disciples. After all, they have earned it through their own hard struggles.”

Upon hearing this, the three disciples were touched.

The disciples from the other sects looked on with envy.

The territory deed of a sect is one of the most important things for a sect.

The fact that Ye Feng was willing to entrust the disciples with the right to decide what to do with the deed showed his trust and the high regard he had for his disciples, making everyone else extremely envious.

Steward Zhou was also taken aback, but he was not opposed to the idea.

“Sect Master Uncle, we don’t have the qualifications to decide something so important.”

The three disciples shook their heads repeatedly.

Ye Feng, with dark circles under his eyes, glared at them: “I am the Sect Master. If I say you decide, then hurry up and decide.”

The disciples, hearing this, felt even more moved.

After a brief discussion, they unanimously decided to exchange the territory deed for the cultivation resources that Steward Zhou had promised.

“These items are yours now.”

Steward Zhou took back the territory deed of the Scarlet Serpent Sect and left a wooden chest on the ground before stepping onto a flying sword with his two attendants and departing through the sky.

“Sect Master Ye, I hope your sect prospers,” called Steward Zhou’s voice from afar, echoing through the mountains.

“Congratulations, Sect Master Ye.”

“Sect Master Ye, when you have time, let’s have our disciples exchange knowledge.”

“Sect Master Ye, need a wife? A friend of mine has a daughter about your age, she’s just a bit heavy, but only around 300 pounds…”

The other sect leaders came forward to offer their congratulations, all with amiable smiles on their faces.

Although they didn’t know how Misty Sect’s disciples managed to perfect their spells, nevertheless, Misty Sect had made a name for itself, and many leaders thought it necessary to maintain good relations with Ye Feng.

“Thank you for your kindness. Our sect has affairs to attend to; please excuse us from seeing you out,” Ye Feng said, clasping his hands towards everyone, eager to put to use the newly acquired spirit stones and Spirit Eye Liquids.

“Till next time, Sect Master Ye,” responded the various sect leaders, understanding that Ye Feng was seeing them off. They clasped their hands in return and left with their disciples.

During this time, Ye Feng noticed that the sect’s prestige value continued to increase, having surpassed 20.

This meant that more than 20 people recognized Misty Sect, showing that among the leaders who had left, indeed quite a few genuinely acknowledged Misty Sect, while many were just being polite on the surface.

“At the beginning, there were only four of us in the sect, and our prestige value was 5. So, who exactly contributed the extra points?”

Ye Feng thought of their fifth disciple, Shu Hongyu, whom he had only met once.

She claimed to be out for training and had not returned yet.

“If Shu Hongyu still acknowledges Misty Sect, she might come back in the future,” Ye Feng mused.

“Wow!”

Just then, Ye Feng heard the exclamation of the three disciples.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the chest on the ground was opened.

Inside, there was a pile of neatly stacked square jade stones, shining with spiritual energy and quite tempting.
