Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The hall-level forces of the True Treasure Pavilion were complicated. There were as much as twelve main halls, let alone the many hall-level forces under them. Almost every hall secretly nurtured and supported the top members of the Glory Ranking. Once they fought for resources above the Divine Transformation Realm in the future, it would be an obvious opposition.

This was because even the headquarters had limited resources. To nurture an A-rank core to become a hall-level elder, or even a hall master or an even stronger main hall-level elder, it required a huge amount of resources.

Moreover, it was the competition between the current inheritors of the Beast Scripture. Once they expressed their support for Shen Ping, they would undoubtedly be opposing the core members of the top ten of the Glory Ranking.

If Shen Ping chose the Dan Hai Hall, it would naturally not be a problem. However, the key was that he chose the Mountain Fire Hall. If he was not careful, he would suffer a double loss. Thus, Hall Master Dan Hai had always been in a dilemma. But now, he still made such a decision.

“I wonder why Fellow Daoist Dan Hai suddenly thought it through?” Hall Master Ji was curious.

Perfected Yu stood up and replied, “Everyone knows their own business. Currently, the most outstanding young core in the Dan Hai Hall is only my Qingling. However, with Ling’er’s potential, not to mention entering the Glory Ranking, it’s even a problem for her to compete for the top ten of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

“Hall Master Ji, you and I both know the rules of the Head Hall. A large portion of the resource quota is divided according to the talent and strength of the core disciples of each hall. My Dan Hai Hall’s many Hall Rankings are originally below average. If this continues, I’m afraid it will be difficult for us to stand out again. Since that’s the case, why don’t we take a risk before the calamity descends?”

Hall Master Shan Huo understood what Perfected Yu meant. With the talent Shen Ping had displayed so far, if he broke through to the Nascent Soul or Divine Transformation realm in the future, he had a high chance of becoming a main hall elder.

And once he did it, the status and authority of the two halls in the main hall and the headquarters would be completely different. The resources they obtained would be similar to the quota for the Beast Scripture Pavilion’s comprehension. The special resources such as the Strange Beast Vine Grass and the Beast Spirit Pool would also be greatly tilted.

In fact, he dared to support Shen Ping with all his might because he wanted to give it a try.

“Fellow Daoist Dan Hai, aren’t you afraid of seeing the wrong person?” Hall Master Ji said meaningfully.

There were many cultivators who were heartless and ungrateful. The Dan Hai Hall was not like their Mountain Fire Hall. They could use other methods to secretly befriend Shen Ping. However, if Perfected Yu came forward to teach him, it would be equivalent to openly supporting Shen Ping.

Hall Master Dan Hai said indifferently, “Talisman Master Shen can bring his wife, concubine, and dao companions to the headquarters, so he must be different from the rest. Moreover, if Fellow Daoist Shan Huo dares to fight with all his might, why wouldn’t I, Dan Hai, dare to?!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hall Master Ji smiled and stopped talking about this topic. Instead, he clapped his hands and said, “Fellow Daoists, I have a lot of good wine. It’s rare for Fellow Daoist Dan Hai and Perfected Yu to visit. We must drink it later.”

Hearing this, Hall Master Dan Hai and Perfected Yu’s expressions immediately changed.

Several minutes later, Shen Ping and the other two arrived at the white jade square in front of the hall.

“Perfected Pei, the Hall Master has instructed that only Talisman Master Shen is allowed to enter.” Deacon Wang reminded.

Pei Huoyu was not surprised and said softly, “I’ll go look for Senior Brother. Fellow Daoist Shen, you can send me a message when you come out later.”

After saying that, she turned around and left. However, before she could walk far, she heard a voice transmission. “If Perfected Pei is free, I hope you can wait in the quiet room when the moon is rising. I haven’t invited Perfected Pei to admire my painting skills for many days. I’m really itchy.”

Pei Huoyu was speechless.

The voice transmission continued, “The white tiger roar on the moonlit night reflects the crystal clear willows hanging down. I’ve always wanted to outline this painting.”

Pei Huoyu’s earlobes instantly turned red. She turned her gaze and saw that the two figures had already stepped into the main hall. However, she bit her lip and muttered in a voice that only she could hear, “I shouldn’t be like this!”

Yu Qingling was looking around in boredom on the white jade steps at the entrance of the hall. Suddenly, a familiar broad figure appeared in her vision. She was instantly overjoyed and instinctively wanted to greet him. However, just as she opened her mouth, she suddenly thought of something and her expression instantly became conflicted.

However, Shen Ping did not think too much about it. At first, he was slightly stunned. Then, he quickly took a few steps forward and cupped his hands. “Fellow Daoist Yu, it’s been nearly ten years since the last assessment. Seeing you again today, Fellow Daoist Yu is still so dazzling.”

“F-Fellow Daoist Shen, you flatter me.” Yu Qingling hurriedly replied in a low voice. Before she came, she had already thought of various ways to deal with Shen Ping. However, when she really saw him, she felt helpless and extremely nervous.

She did not even dare to look at Shen Ping directly. As soon as she saw that face, she could not help but recall the situation of her cultivation going berserk in the trial space. It was as if she did not have any secrets in front of him. The shyness that surged in her heart made her courage disappear.

Suddenly, Yu Qingling’s eyes darkened. She subconsciously looked up and saw that familiar face close to her. “Ah… Fellow Daoist Shen, what, what are you doing?!” Yu Qingling was so frightened that she hurriedly took dozens of steps back.

The corners of Wang Yuanming’s mouth twitched slightly. He had long heard of this monstrous Talisman Dao genius’s preference for Dao Companions. Now that he looked at it, the rumors were indeed true!

However, he did not say anything. Instead, he watched calmly.

“Fellow Daoist Yu, in my opinion, the confusion in your Dao heart has yet to be eliminated. If Fellow Daoist Yu needs guidance, 1 will definitely not decline.” Shen Ping said seriously..
