Chapter 34 Yue Mingluan Got His Previous Opportunity
Passing the true disciple assessment test was a significant milestone for any cultivator, as it marked the beginning of their journey to become a true disciple of the Red Lotus Sect.
Those who passed the test would be granted access to the Sect's most advanced cultivation techniques and resources, as well as be eligible for higher positions within the Sect's hierarchy.
Wang Chen couldn't contain his excitement and gratitude towards Elder Quin. "Thank you so much, Elder Quin. I am honored to be a part of the Red Lotus Sect and I will strive to live up to the Sect's expectations."
"Good," Elder Quin said approvingly.
"Now come with me I will give you the True Disciple Jade Token. You could also go to the library and choose another technique and you can give this token to management staff. They will arrange a courtyard for you there." Elder Quin said as he gave a new Jade Token to Wang Chen and informed him about some other details.
Wang Chen left from there after he got the token and planned to choose a new Technique so he went towards the library.

Just as Wang Chen entered the library he saw an old man who was sitting on the chair as his eyes closed.
It was none other than the Guardian elder Wang Chen met when he intercepted Yue Mingluan's opportunity for the first time.
"Elder…" Wang Chen began to speak, but he was interrupted by a familiar voice.
"What are you doing here, you bastard?" Yue Mingluan said as he approached Wang Chen.
The Guardian Elder suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards Yue Mingluan, saying out loud, "Why are you shouting here? Don't you know it's a library?"
'You're the one who is shouting out loud,' Just like before both Yue Mingluan and Wang Chen thought simultaneously in their hearts.
"You brat, why didn't you come to submit the cultivation Technique in time that was given." Guardian Elder questioned as he saw Wang Chen.
"Elder, I was planning to, but I went on a mission and it took more time to complete," Wang Chen said in a polite tone.
"You will have to pay a fine of 3000 low-grade spirit stones for not submitting the cultivation technique in time!" Guardian Elder said.
Wang Chen took out a small bag and handed it to the Guardian Elder.
"Huh?" The Elder opened the bag and was surprised to find that it contained double the amount of spirit stones he had asked for.
"Do you plan to buy a technique? The techniques in the library are not for sale," the Guardian Elder said, noticing the amount of spirit stones in the bag.
"No, no, Elder. This is for next time if I am late to submit the cultivation technique," Wang Chen said as he took out a book from his storage bag and handed it to the Guardian Elder.
"What do you mean by this?" the Guardian Elder asked, becoming confused.
"I'm here to choose a Cultivation Technique," Wang Chen replied, handing over the True Disciple Jade Token.
"Huh?" The Guardian Elder took the token and injected a trace of Qi, finding it to be authentic.
He was surprised because he knew it had not yet been a month since Wang had selected his cultivation technique as an inner disciple, and now he had already become a True Disciple.
"Looks like you got some nice opportunities during your mission," the Guardian Elder said, coming to this conclusion as he knew that even though Wang Chen was a genius in Cultivation, he couldn't progress this fast without any good resources.
"Yes, Elder, I got some nice opportunities during my journey on the mission," Wang Chen said with a smile, glancing at Yue Mingluan.
Yue Mingluan also noticed Wang Chen's gaze, but he didn't say anything and instead glanced at the book that Wang Chen had given to the Guardian Elder.
Having investigated Wang Chen's background, Yue Mingluan knew that Wang Chen was considered a trash, and he couldn't understand how Wang Chen could suddenly rise to power. He assumed that there must be some treasure or powerful technique involved.
However, Yue Mingluan did not get any treasure and was injured while trying to steal from Wang Chen on Ku Jing mountain.
But now that he saw the technique which had previously attracted him strongly and was telling him that it was suitable for him, how could he just stand still and do nothing?
"Elder, I'm here to select a Cultivation Technique as well," Yue Mingluan said as he handed over his True Disciple Jade Token.
The Elder checked the token's authenticity by injecting a bit of his Qi.
"Hmm, you both can go to the third floor and select any technique you want there," the Guardian Elder said with a smile, happy that his sect had gained some talented young disciples.
"Ah, but I have already chosen my cultivation technique," Yue Mingluan said.
"You haven't even gone to the library yet?" the Guardian Elder questioned.
"I want that technique," Yue Mingluan said, pointing to the technique that Wang Chen had just given to the Guardian Elder.
"Do you really want this technique that much? There are many better techniques on the third floor, and this technique is not of high grade," the Guardian Elder tried to persuade Yue Mingluan.
"No, I want this technique," Yue Mingluan said, adamant that this technique had helped Wang Chen's cultivation grow and he wanted to learn more about it.
"Sigh! Young people these days have such weird choices," Guardian Elder said, trying to persuade Yue Mingluan, but ultimately, it was his choice which technique he wanted to cultivate.
The Guardian Elder registered the technique and gave it to Yue Mingluan.
"Hmph," Yue Mingluan gave a smug look to Wang Chen as he left the library.
'Hahaha, what an idiot. I want to see your face after you finish mastering this technique,' Wang Chen laughed to himself as he saw Yue Mingluan giving him a smug look. He wanted to see if that look would remain after Yue Mingluan had practiced the technique.
