"Senior Brother!"

"Senior Brother!"

A while later, Zhang Wu and Yan Zheng also flew to the main hall of Tian Shu.

Yan Zheng entered the hall, greeted Wu Er, and also greeted the others.

Zhang Wu did the same, but his way of greeting Chen Ping was somewhat unusual...

"Xiaoping! You're finally back!"

Zhang Wu walked over to Chen Ping in a few steps and then put his thick arm around Chen Ping's shoulder.

I've missed you so much!

Perhaps because Chen Ping often comforted Zhang Wu when he cried when they were young, Zhang Wu was very enthusiastic towards Chen Ping and their actions were very intimate.

Of course, Chen Ping wasn't really willing to accept this intimacy.

Zhang Wu grabbed Chen Ping's arm and pulled hard, making it hard for Chen Ping to breathe.

Chen Ping, who was already exhausted from traveling, looked even worse, and he could barely speak.

Xiao Mingmu, however, had a sharp eye and said to Zhang Wu, "Hey, third brother, let go of Xiaoping first, let's hear what our senior brother has to say."

"Okay, let's hear what our senior brother has to say first." Zhang Wu then released his arm from Chen Ping's.

After regaining normal breathing, Chen Ping gave Xiao Mingmu a grateful look.

Xiao Mingmu smiled at Chen Ping, then said to Wu Er, "Senior Brother, we're all here. Now, tell us what you need to do."

Seeing that all his junior brothers and sisters had arrived, Wu Er felt a sense of satisfaction. Perhaps it was because he had just returned to his hometown and had become a little sentimental.

"It's been so long since I've had someone like this; it's great to have everyone here..."

Shaking his head, Wu Er stopped sighing.

Instead, he said, "Actually, there's nothing special about calling you here today. I just wanted to change our disciple promotion system. I wouldn't call it an improvement, but rather to give a warning to the stubborn folks in the sect and also ask for your opinions."

Upon hearing this, people reacted in various ways.

Although Xiao Mingmu had guessed this, he still said, "Senior brother, I think we shouldn't rush this matter. This will be a blow to the sect's mid-level cultivators."

Xiao Mingmu was somewhat opposed to this.

Zhang Wu's attitude was completely opposite to Xiao Mingmu's. He clapped his hands and said in support, "Good! They should have been warned long ago. They've ruined so many promising talents!"

Chen Ping touched the board in his hand and said, "I also think this is too abrupt. It's not appropriate to directly change these unspoken rules. It's better to proceed slowly."

Yan Zheng shook his head, remaining silent and unresponsive, as he had never been an expert in sect affairs.

Wo Ningyan fully supported her senior brother, so she said to Wu Er in a coquettish tone, "I support whatever senior brother says."

After listening to everyone's opinions, Wu Er nodded.

Then he said, "I know this decision will have some impact on the sect, but it's better to resolve it quickly. Burying talent is not the style of Pengshan Sect."

Alright, since Wu Er has spoken, there's nothing more to say, it's settled.

So they started talking about how to reform and how to discipline.

The group chatted for a while, and finally, at the suggestion of Xiao Mingmu, who was most skilled at handling official business and arranging meetings.

A promotion ceremony is planned to be held in the Beidou Palace complex, bringing together outer disciples and all the sect's high-ranking members.

The fact that this group of fellow apprentices, including Wu Er, attended together could also quell any dissenting opinions.

Finally, Xiao Mingmu selected the inner disciples who could be promoted according to the ranking of the competition, and then the higher-ups chose to take those disciples as their apprentices.

Although there is still some room for maneuver, it is much more secure than before.

At least it prevents some utterly worthless individuals from being arbitrarily admitted into the inner circle just because of connections.

After discussing the general plan, the group dispersed, busy preparing for the promotion conference.

Okay, actually, it was mainly Xiao Mingmu who stayed up all night working on the plans.

Among these junior brothers and sisters, only Chen Ping could help share some of the burden.

If others try to help, they will not only be of no help but also cause a lot of trouble.

Who knows what might happen? A grand dragon opening, a drifting cloud boat opening, or some other bizarre opening...

As the most lazy sect leader in history, Wu Er naturally wouldn't help with the matter.

Just like some unscrupulous business owners, they give instructions and then make their employees work themselves to the bone.

However, no unscrupulous company's employees are like Wu Er's second senior brother, who never complains even when he works overtime to the point of vomiting blood.

After leaving the Tian Shu Hall, Wu Er began to stroll around the sect's streets.

After all, aside from wandering around the sect, he didn't know what else to do.

There's nothing that can be done; the life of the Pengshan Sect Leader is just that leisurely. He doesn't have to deal with official business or scramble for resources; he can just bask in the sun like a salted fish.

Thinking about it carefully, this life is really boring and tasteless.

Within the sect, Wu Er wandered from one mountain peak to another.

As he wandered to a mountain, Wu Er stopped and landed on it.

This is a rather remote mountain. Although it is within the sect's territory, no one lives on it.

The reason why no one lives up there is quite simple: they probably think the mountain isn't strange enough or dangerous enough.

Cultivators often prefer to be unconventional. In reality, it doesn't matter where they live, but most cultivators prefer to live in mountains with distinctive features. Mountains without any special characteristics are basically no longer considered.

The reason Wu Er was able to land on this unremarkable little hill was because there were many loquat trees planted on it.

"I never knew there was such a secluded place before."
