Chapter 206 Gao Yang
In the inner sect of Lingjian Sect, Lu Yuan walked with the great elder and talked with Gao Yang.
Upon hearing about Gao Yang's current progress in the sword, Gao Yang answered truthfully that he had already comprehended dozens of sword techniques, several sword intents, and even had made some progress in swordsmanship.
He incorporated all that he had learned and practiced since childhood into his Jidao Sword, making his Jidao Sword even more powerful.
At his age, it is extremely difficult for him to reach this level in swordsmanship.
Lu Yuan said: "With your current achievements in swordsmanship, you are no less than the core disciples of the real big sects in the Northern Wilderness. In fact, according to reason, with your talent and achievements in swordsmanship, you can now completely leave the Spirit Sword Sect and practice in another sect.
The Lingjian Sect is too small for him after all. It has become a constraint on you. Why don't you leave Daqian?"
Gao Yang's talent and comprehension are indeed high, and for a sword cultivator, especially one who follows his path, the most important thing is comprehension.
There is a world of difference between the swordsmanship cultivated by those with high comprehension and those with low comprehension. It is obvious that Gao Yang is one of those with high talent. His current level of swordsmanship is enough to leave the Lingjian Sect and go out of Daqian.
In response to Lu Yuan's question, Gao Yang's answer was also very simple.
Just three words, no background.
Lu Yuan understood instantly.
These three words are enough to explain a lot.
In the path of cultivating immortals, talent is certainly important, but background is actually more important.
If you have a strong enough background, you can do whatever you want in the world; on the contrary, if you don’t have a strong background, you will often find it difficult to make any progress.
When the talent gap is not particularly large, people with backgrounds will always occupy all resources before those without backgrounds. There are even many examples of true geniuses being suppressed by fake geniuses for their entire lives.
For example, Shangguan Yanran of Qinglan Sect, she is actually a fake genius. She has a grandfather who is the regional general manager of the Alchemist Alliance, which allowed her to infuse resources all the way to become the number one in the inner sect of Qinglan Sect.
Is it possible that in Qinglan Sect, which has nearly 100,000 disciples, there is no one else with greater talent and strength than Shangguan Yanran?
Of course there are, and there are a lot of them, but they are suppressed so tightly that they have no chance to breathe. If Shangguan Yanran had not been defeated miserably in the three-year agreement, the future of Qinglan Sect would have been in Shangguan Yanran's pocket.
Shangguan Yanran is just a small microcosm of the big world. Many large sects are even darker than Shangguan Yanran, and there are many people who have taken over other people's bodies and foundations.
A genius without a background is too easy to be suppressed and strangled outside.
Strictly speaking, Gao Yang's background is actually worse than Jiang Ming, Zhang Feifei, and Xiao Huo.
Although Jiang Ming, Zhang Feifei and Xiao Huo were not doing well before they joined the Lingjian Sect, at least they had their own families and their parents were still alive. Although they did not have any status or identity, and Jiang Ming and Zhang Feifei's parents were even from farming families, at least they had a family.
Gao Yang's situation was more miserable. He was abandoned since childhood and didn't even know who his parents were. If he hadn't been picked up by the elders of the Lingjian Sect, he would have died long ago.
Although he had a strong talent in swordsmanship, it was difficult for him to find a way out. Moreover, he joined the Lingjian Sect at a very young age. Since childhood, many inner sect elders, ancestors, and sect masters valued him and trained him as a successor.
The Lingjian Sect gave Gao Yang everything they had and cultivated him with great care, so Gao Yang had deep feelings for the Lingjian Sect and basically treated it as his home, and he didn't want to leave.
Because although he is as obsessed with swordsmanship as Ning Feng and likes to fight with strong men, his greatest wish is to lead the Lingjian Sect to glory while practicing swordsmanship.
It would be meaningless to just improve one's swordsmanship, so Gao Yang had already made up his mind that when there was no particularly good way out, he would stay in the Lingjian Sect and comprehend the swordsmanship on his own.
Lead the Lingjian Sect to become as glorious as possible and achieve perfection.
This kid is indeed loyal and has a good character, but being loyal is not always a good thing. At least Lu Yuan was grinning as he looked at the Great Elder. He knew that if he accepted Gao Yang as his disciple, Gao Yang would grow up and would definitely lead the Lingjian Sect to success. The Lingjian Sect would win without any effort.
Ignoring the Great Elder who was secretly happy, Lu Yuan really liked Gao Yang, the swordsman.
He asked Gao Yang, if he was not interested, he could become his disciple and study in Daluo Sect? Gao Yang did not pretend, he accepted it on the spot, and kowtowed to become his disciple in a second.
Lu Yuan glanced at Gao Yang, who accepted the offer without any hesitation, and then glanced at the Grand Elder of Lingjian Sect, who was secretly laughing beside him. For a moment, he wondered if these two people had agreed on this in advance.
In fact, the Great Elder did talk to Gao Yang in advance.
Gao Yang has a deep relationship with the Lingjian Sect, and it is true that his wish is to lead his mother sect to glory.
But the Great Elder told Gao Yang very seriously that Sect Master Lu's acceptance of a disciple might be the greatest opportunity he would ever encounter in his life, which was basically the same as the Sect Master of the Zhongzhou Divine Sect personally selecting a disciple.
He told Gao Yang not to refuse, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Gao Yang also knew some things about Ning Feng and Zhang Feifei. These two junior brothers both greatly improved their cultivation after joining the Daluo Sect.
Not to mention Zhang Feifei, Gao Yang didn't know much about him, but he knew Ning Feng very well. Both of them were extremely talented, and they had fought each other many times when they were in the Lingjian Sect.
Gao Yang had lamented the imperfections in Ning Feng's swordsmanship more than once. He had also studied the swordsmanship that Ning Feng practiced, but he could never find a way to repair the problem.
But after Ning Feng transferred to Daluo Sect, he immediately solved this problem. There was no doubt that Sect Master Lu was behind him.
It can be seen how strong Sect Leader Lu's foundation in teaching his disciples is. Gao Yang is extremely talented. Strictly speaking, he is half a level stronger than Ning Feng. The only things that limit him are his background and real resources.
If Gao Yang joins Daluo Sect, it will be like a dragon entering the sea. He will surely embark on a stronger path, and even overcome the calamity and ascend to the immortal realm in the future.
The Great Elder had high hopes for him and had been telling him this.
The Great Elder was also very worried at the beginning. He was afraid that Gao Yang would not be able to let go of the position of the future leader of the Lingjian Sect. After all, Gao Yang had already been reserved as the future leader, but if he switched to the Lingjian Sect, the future leader would definitely change.
But the Great Elder's worries were obviously unnecessary. Gao Yang was not actually eager to be the Sect Master. He just simply wanted to make the Lingjian Sect a better place, just like a child who was raised since childhood hoping that his family would be better. As for who would be the parent, it did not matter.
In comparison, he actually loves practicing swordsmanship more. If there is a way to make his swordsmanship stronger and also take care of the Lingjian Sect, Gao Yang will certainly be very happy.
From this perspective, Daluo Sect is obviously the most suitable for Gao Yang.
Sect Master Lu can make him stronger, and Sect Master Lu also has in-depth cooperation with the Lingjian Sect. In the future, when he becomes stronger and the Daluo Sect becomes stronger, there will be direct positive feedback to the Lingjian Sect. For Gao Yang, this is simply a perfect plan, so he has no reason to refuse.
