Chapter 1734 Cultivation Limit
Chapter 1734 Cultivation Limit
As the clans of the Jhiod Sect began to discuss, Gean took the chance to ask Philip another thing. “From what we heard, Libraia has also awakened her sword intent. Why isn’t she here? Even if her position is much higher than these boys, she should also participate in these fights.”
Philip shook his head, telling him, “She has other things to deal with. As you mentioned, she’s an important member of my clan, so fighting a bunch of brats and elders is out of the question.” In fact, Philip felt helpless. He wanted Libraia to stay and help with this situation. However, she used the excuse to help the twins to flee from this ordeal. After all, she knew she would definitely be dragged into it if she stayed in the sect.
Gean narrowed his eyes in response but didn’t say anything else. In the end, the Yume Clan was providing four of its five weapon intent users. Asking for a higher compromise than that would be difficult. Well, he wasn’t sure if the Yume Clan really only had five weapon intent users, but he couldn’t prove they had more either.
The discussion about who would take the slots lasted several hours, as everyone wanted to grab as many of them as possible. Many deals were made to allow some to get more time slots while others got less in exchange for certain things.
It was only when the clans of the Jhiod Sect reached an agreement that Philip finally brought up the last topic of discussion ahead. “Alright, since all of you have decided, my Yume Clan has one last announcement to do. Rean and Roan will represent my Yume Clan during the Jamai Sect Selection six years from now.” Philip intended to include Celis and Kentucky as well. However, there was a slot limitation, so he decided to leave the demon beast and tree out.
“What?” The clan heads and elders were taken aback. “Do you expect us to let the weapon intent users leave the sect?”
Philip shook his head, clarifying, “There’s no need to worry. Even if no one awakens a weapon intent at all, our Jhiod Sect would still have Brimi, Galato, and Libraia. Besides, we’re talking about the twins being able to pass the Jamai Selection. Ever since we allied to the Jamai Sect, none of our disciples have succeeded. Do you think they have a greater chance? Try to be more realistic.”
“Since that’s the case, why would you even send them there?” Lumina obviously grabbed onto the opportunity to intervene.
“Simple,” Philip already expected that. “That’s because they truly have a chance of passing. You all should know very well how strong Rean is, and his brother is just as strong. Don’t forget what our Jhiod Sect could acquire in resources if one of them truly succeeds during the test. Or could it be that none of you wish to have a member of our sect there?”
“This…” Lumina was lost for words. Everyone knew that the resources gained by disciples who joined Jamai were equivalent to Rank Seven Divine Stones! The Jhiod Sect would definitely welcome those stones with open arms.
All the elders and clan heads’ eyes lit up when they heard that as well.
Seeing that, Gean couldn’t find any reason to prevent Philip from doing that. Otherwise, he would be seen as a Sect Master trying to make sure only his clan benefitted. “Very well, the twins will be allowed to participate in the Jamai Selection. However, each of the clans only has two slots to use. Since you’ve decided to use them, you can not send anyone else anymore. Are you fine with that?”
Philip nodded in response. As he mentioned to the twins before, his clan didn’t have any genius at the right level to participate in the Jamai Selection at the moment. The twins were the only choice from the very start.
Rean and Roan were obviously satisfied with that. Philip kept his word, and that was all they needed. If they had to fight against other cultivators and demon beasts every day until the selection, then so be it. It was a lot better than trying to head to the center of the Realm of Gods by themselves.
Since the meeting was ongoing, the elders and clans took the chance to bring out other topics relevant to the sect. With that, the meeting lasted another day or so before everyone finally dispersed.
On the next day, after the end of the meeting, Rean, Roan, Brimi, and Galato were brought to a restricted area close to the center of the sect. Obviously, a few elders of the Yume Clan followed them, just in case.
There, they were finally able to meet the other participants who were supposed to go to the Jamai Sect’s selection. Rean remembered a few of them, as they had come to the Yume Clan to challenge him after the display of strength he did when he arrived.
“Hey, Qisei, Xapha, Krui, long time no see!” Rean immediately complimented those three.
They looked at Rean as their mouths twitched in response. Other than the time they went to challenge Rean, they had barely talked at all. Why was Rean acting that friendly with them?
Qisei then approached Rean with a dark expression. “Hmph! No wonder you kept refusing our challenges. You didn’t want us to awaken our weapon intents. However, you have no choice anymore. During these next six years before the Jamai Sect Selection, I’ll definitely use all of you to awaken my own.”
Xapha was a lot more polite, though. “I’ll be counting on you during this endeavor. I hope none of you will hold back since I won’t either.”
As for Kruia, she was basically excited about this chance and ignored everything else. “Why are we even talking? Come on, let’s start, let’s start!”
Rean and Roan could see one thing in common with the demon beasts and cultivators who would take part in the Jamai Sect Selections. They were all at the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm. ‘Seems like this is the limit for those who want to take part in it.’
