Someone gasped in shock.

Someone quickly investigated this person’s identity.

On the side of Shallow Cloud Mountain, someone looked coldly at Zhong Heng, and someone next to him whispered, "This boy was previously from the Seven Extremes Sect..."

His eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "First, go with an apology gift, then use the Heart Injection Pearl to check. If this boy remains ungrateful..."

"He must not be kept."

"Yes..."

"But... the others..."

"I will not let him find a master so soon. Without a master, he is just a grassroots individual. The great masters can at most feel pity; as for the Divine Strategy Pavilion? Huh."

.........

"This boy hasn’t found a master yet?"

"Are you kidding?"

"I want this boy!"

"Get lost, this boy is destined to be my disciple."

"You old ghost, you get lost."

"He doesn’t have any engagement yet, right."

"Take him away, quickly snatch him for me, today he will be my son-in-law!"

Each cultivator’s eyes were fervent, as if seeing gold.

The cultivators from the Divine Strategy Pavilion quickly carried the unconscious Zhong Heng away.

[You successfully clinched the top spot in the array competition. Although not all array masters from the entire Qu Hong Cultivation Realm took part, the title of the number one array genius among the younger generation in thirty years has spread.]

[The Divine Strategy Pavilion blocked all external forces’ interference for you.]

[When you awakened, Qian Hua told you that you would soon independently choose your master and fiancée.]

[Fiancée? You were momentarily stunned, and Qian Hua explained helplessly that although you are exceptionally talented, ultimately you lack true elders, and each faction wants to accept you as a son-in-law but has no avenue, hence you must choose for yourself.]

[However, three days later, when the news of your Five Spirit Roots spread, half of those waiting outside the Divine Strategy Pavilion left.]

[No matter how great the talent, without sufficient cultivation, it is ultimately an illusion.]

[And some large arrays require sufficient True Essence reserves. Five Spirit Roots are too inadequate; insufficient True Essence cultivation makes it impossible to go far in the Array Dao.]

[Three days later, someone came from Shallow Cloud Mountain, bringing an apology gift, which you graciously accepted.]

[Then on that very day, Shallow Cloud Mountain released a statement saying you were previously a wanted person by Shallow Cloud Mountain, but the stance was unclear, and those blocking your door were halved again.]

[Three days later, the great array master from Shallow Cloud Mountain, Shan Tongzi, announced that you were his predetermined disciple. Shan Tongzi is a Fourth-rank Array Master, capable of helping in the arrangement of a Tier Five Array, holding an exceedingly high status, and nearly everyone blocking your door left.]

[Almost everyone discerned the attitude of Shallow Cloud Mountain towards you, and Shan Tongzi’s words further represented that anyone wishing to accept you as a disciple would become his adversary.]

[You may have outstanding talent in arrays, but... your innate prowess is too poor, and without background, just a grassroots, very few would pay a price for you.]

[Shallow Cloud Mountain’s rival, Qingfeng Valley’s Fifth-grade Talisman Master Gaoshan declared the intention to accept you as a disciple. Although Qingfeng Valley does not have an Array Inheritance, they are willing to lavishly teach you in the Talisman Dao; you do not wish to switch cultivation, hence you politely declined.]

[In the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion at the Three Clouds Market, your colleagues, and Qian Hua, all felt indignant for you, but they seemed not overly worried, especially Qian Hua, who just told you to rest assured.]

[In times of crisis, the Array Master Alliance of Three Clouds Market, along with many other markets, announced their willingness to open their array knowledge inheritance to you, a right of every Array Master Alliance member, and Shallow Cloud Mountain compromised.]

[This signifies that your path in the Array Dao will not be obstructed, but your cultivation talent also means you cannot go far, and still, no one would stand up for you.]

[But several eligible Array Masters are all in seclusion, and under the pressure of Shallow Cloud Mountain, the remaining array masters are unwilling to pay a price for you.]

[Three days later, Divine Strategy Pavilion True Master Yunmiao emerged from seclusion...]

[That day, the True Master wielded his sword and headed to Shallow Cloud Mountain...]
