At first, the atmosphere was tense and no one was willing to back down in the Hualong Pool. Suddenly, it turned into a harmonious scene.

Everyone obediently guarded their own dragon energy and absorbed it earnestly.

Even though they were together, there were no disagreements.

And all of this was because of Tang Tian's unexpected actions.

"It seems that Tang Tian is very good at doing these things."

Jing Heng came to Mo Xiaoxiao's side and chuckled softly, "The Spring Garden Reward, Flag Capture Battle, Five Peaks Exchange, Inspection Meeting, and today's Hualong Pool."

"He always manages to do unexpected things and make these events the most special."

Mo Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said lightly, "Just say what you want to say."

Jing Heng forced a laugh, this guy is really straightforward.

"Then I'll just say it."

"What does Tang Tian think about that position... Does he have any plans?"

Mo Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow, "Why, do you also want to compete for it?"

Jing Heng quickly waved his hand, "I don't have that ability."

"Being able to hold the position of the Eastern Peak has already exhausted me. How can I compare to you guys?"

"I just want to know what Tang Tian's plans are for the future, so I can be prepared."

Mo Xiaoxiao snorted lightly, "Then go ask him directly."

Jing Heng smiled bitterly, if he could ask him directly, why would he ask you?

He wasn't familiar with Tang Tian, and asking such a question out of the blue would easily make people think he had ulterior motives.

But Mo Xiaoxiao didn't seem to want to say much, so reluctantly, Jing Heng could only leave.

But as he was leaving, Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up, "Tang Tian is a difficult person to figure out."

"His goals seem to be different from all of us."

"But what I can be sure of is that as long as you don't actively go against him, he won't consider you an enemy."

Jing Heng stopped in his tracks and pondered for a while. He gave Mo Xiaoxiao a nod and turned to leave.

An hour's time gradually came to an end.

At this moment, many people in the Hualong Pool had already absorbed a certain amount of dragon energy. Their faces were radiant, clearly having gained great benefits.

Some even broke through their realms on the spot.

However, after receiving the benefits, everyone had to face Tang Tian, bow respectfully, and sincerely say a few words.

"Thank you, my brother!"

Tang Tian was speechless, he really didn't have that kind of fetish!

"Thank you again, Tang Tian!"

Finally, someone said something normal.

Turning his head, it was Nie Wushuang.

Judging from the aura emanating from her, she should have broken through to the mid-stage of Gold Core.

This girl's talent was probably extraordinary.

Fortunately, he wasn't weak now either.

After nodding slightly in acknowledgment, suddenly, a powerful aura erupted beside him.

It was the Lan Yu sisters.

During this period of time, they had been using the Innate Dao Jade to assist in their cultivation. Coupled with the dragon energy they absorbed today, their talents finally underwent a complete transformation.

They went from having a nine-ring talent to becoming Innate children!

Their future path would be even smoother.

After the transformation of the Lan Yu sisters, Li Hong followed closely behind.

Eight rings of talent floated around his body, and his cultivation finally broke through to the mid-stage of Soul Formation.

Li Hong was excited, and Tang Tian smiled and let him continue cultivating, making the most of the remaining time.

However, what surprised Tang Tian was that Gu Xiao Xue didn't show any special performance during this trip to the Hualong Pool.

It seemed that she was just an ordinary Innate child, and her cultivation had only become more stable at the peak of Nascent Soul.

Tang Tian shook his head, this girl had never been normal.

After some time, the trip to the Hualong Pool officially ended.

Under an irresistible force, everyone was sent out of the Hualong Pool and returned to the cliff.

Just as they came up, Xiang Ze went straight to find his elder, indignantly saying something.

But before he could say a few words, the elder stopped him with a stern shout, leaving the Little Lion King with a frustrated expression.

It seemed that he didn't quite understand why the elder, who had always doted on him, suddenly changed.

Tang Tian didn't pay attention to all that and returned to the area reserved for honorary disciples.

"Thank you for your generosity, Tang Tian."

Jing Heng and Guan Meng bowed and thanked him, while Lu Changge and the others smiled in acknowledgment.

No matter what, Tang Tian had helped them today and had given them a lot of face.

Even if there had been conflicts in the past, they couldn't show it at this moment.

Tang Tian responded to each of them and then returned to Mo Xiaoxiao's side.

"I will find a way to compensate you."

Mò Xiāoxiāo said.

Tang Tian waved his hand, "Just doing it casually, don't worry about it."

"What happened to those people? They all look like they've been beaten up. It can't be that bad. I even shared some dragon energy with them," Tang Tian looked at the elders on the side of the core disciples, puzzled.

Mò Xiāoxiāo smiled, "They were scolded by the Elder, and they will be scolded again in the meeting later."

"What happened on the cliff just now was also quite exciting," Tang Tian was surprised and was about to ask further, but he saw Yún Kōng walking over.

Mò Xiāoxiāo tactfully walked away, and Yún Kōng approached, sighing, "Young Master Tang, today's events really caught everyone by surprise."

"Having a divine-level physique is extremely rare, even in the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion," Tang Tian smiled and remained silent.

Although his strength had been exposed to some extent, he wouldn't be foolish enough to reveal all the specific information to others.

Seeing that Tang Tian didn't want to say more, Yún Kōng said, "The Elder wants to see you, in the back hall of the Sect Master's residence."

"Do you have other things to attend to?" Tang Tian was slightly surprised. The Elder mentioned by Yún Kōng must be the Grand Elder of the sect.

That was a presence second only to the Sect Master. Why would he want to see him?

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tian said, "I don't have any other matters for now."

He couldn't refuse the summoning of such a high-level figure.

"Alright, then follow me," Yún Kōng said.

After a while, Tang Tian and Yún Kōng arrived at the main hall of the Sect Master's residence, in a garden at the back.

The Grand Elder was sitting under a pavilion. After bringing Tang Tian over, Yún Kōng respectfully withdrew.

"Disciple Tang Tian, greetings to the Grand Elder," Tang Tian bowed.

"Mm," the Grand Elder observed Tang Tian for a while and then extended his hand, saying, "Please sit."

After sitting down, the Grand Elder directly asked, "Why did you choose to become an honorary disciple before?"

Tang Tian was stunned for a moment, then answered, "At that time, I didn't fully understand the rules of the sect. To ensure my safety, I chose the identity of an honorary disciple."

This was the explanation he had prepared long ago.

After listening, the Grand Elder sighed lightly, "The sect has ultimately lost its attention to ordinary disciples."

"In recent years, there have been too many disciples like you. Clearly talented, but for various reasons, they have taken the wrong path."

"If you hadn't suddenly gained a large amount of wealth, perhaps you would have been buried among the menial disciples forever."

Tang Tian fell silent. Indeed, such situations existed.

Qīng Yuè Gate was too large, and there were always geniuses who were overlooked. The criteria for judging an outstanding disciple were not just talent.

But did the Grand Elder's last sentence imply something?

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tian said, "I occasionally obtained an opportunity..."

However, before he could finish, the Grand Elder interrupted him with a raised hand.

"You don't need to tell me what you obtained."

"The sect won't covet a disciple's opportunities. As long as you abide by the rules, being a disciple of Qīng Yuè Gate is enough."

"You did well today, setting a good example for others."

"There are many people who have gradually lost their original intentions on the fast track of development."

Tang Tian couldn't help but fall into silence. The perspective of these high-level figures was indeed very different from that of ordinary people.

But he couldn't help but ask the question that had been on his mind all along.

"Aren't you afraid that the sect will be manipulated and betrayed by malicious individuals by doing this?"

Upon hearing this question, the Grand Elder laughed.

"Do you think we old folks are just eating for nothing?"

"If such a thing really happens, it would be our dereliction of duty, and someone else should take our place."

"Don't think too much. As long as you have a clear conscience, you don't need to fear those who hunt for ghosts."

Tang Tian nodded and felt relieved.

Come to think of it, a complete sect is similar to a country, with everyone performing their respective roles to ensure the smooth operation of this large machine.

Internal struggles definitely exist, but they are within an accepted range.

If anyone dares to cross the line, they will face dire consequences.

"Continue to work hard. A divine-level physique is extremely rare. Don't waste it," the Grand Elder said, "I heard from Yún Kōng that you have taken on all the funds for the construction of the Sixth Peak. On behalf of the sect, I thank you."

"If you have any matters in the future, you can directly discuss them with me."

Tang Tian quickly expressed that it was his duty to do so.

However, suddenly, he remembered something.

"Um... I wonder if I could trouble the Grand Elder to mark my Innate Dao Jade? Ordinary people won't be able to detect it."

It would be better to make some preparations for the matter with Zhòng Yáng.
