Not long after the bell tolled, Caspian received a message from Omar, “Come to the square.”
Caspian estimated that it was the news regarding the nation’s official religion election, so he simply packed up and left the mansion with Handsome.
Handsome was different from Little Candy as it appeared with Caspian from the first time, and there was no issue with people misunderstanding him being Caspian’s pet.
Moreover, its deceptively small white pig appearance was much safer than Little Candy’s.
Sometimes Caspian could not help but speculate maliciously of what would happen if Handsome accidentally revealed its original appearance and others saw it.
When they came to the square, many people surrounded the bulletin board.
That was Handsorne’s first time seeing so many human cultivators.
However, for some unknown reasons, the little pig stared at the densely packed crowd, slightly opened its mouth, and started to drool.
Then, Caspian angrily warned Handsome, and the little pig immediately calmed itself down.
There were too many people in front of the signboard, and Caspian could not squeeze in.
Nonetheless, he was not in a hurry and waited for a while at the agreed place.
Soon, he saw Omar forcing himself out of the crowd.
“You’re here!” Omar quickly walked toward Caspian with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Then, he added, “It’s the matter regarding the nation’s official religion election!”
As Caspian guessed it before he came, he was not surprised.
After a pause, Omar continued, “This time, the six major sects will choose outer disciples to participate in the nation’s official religion election.”
Caspian was not surprised by it either because Hadley’s attitude already said it all.
However, Omar’s third sentence was beyond Caspian’s expectations.
“Moreover, only the outer disciples are allowed to participate.
Others such as inner disciples and so would not be able to join the nation’s official religion election.”
When Caspian heard that, he was shocked.
“What’s the reason?”
It was normal for outer disciples to participate in the competition, but it would be baffling if only they were allowed to join.
After all, they were named the outer disciples, which meant they were not truly the core of the sect yet.
At the very least, the disciples would have to be inner disciples to be genuinely integrated as part of their sect.”
In the nation’s official religion election, it did not make sense to choose the outer disciples instead of those who were integrated as part of the sect, which was at least the inner disciples.
“I don’t know the specifics, but it’s indeed different from the past.” Omar has been in the Heavenly Stars Sect longer than Caspian, so he knew more information.
Then, he recalled and continued, “I remember that disciples of two levels were selected to participate in the past competitions.
The lowest was the outer disciples, whereas the highest was the core disciples, which is the second stage of the Holy Land Realm.
However, not only is it now limited to one level of disciples, but it’s also only for outer disciples.
I can’t understand what the leaders of the six majors sect are thinking.”
Speaking of that, Omar’s face suddenly showed a look of incomparable excitement and anticipation.
“But Casper, don’t you think that it’s an excellent opportunity for us outer disciples! If we’re with other disciples, everyone’s eyes will focus on them, and we’re only there as a foil.
However, that time it was different! If the nation’s official religion election is regarded as a big show, the main actors are us now!” Omar was usually a bit of a talker, but he was even more chatty now that he was emotional.
“It only mentioned that outer disciples can participate, but the outer disciples are also divided levels.
The second-stage Pulse Control Realm has entry-level, mid-level, and peak level,” Caspian could not help reminding Omar kindly, trying to calm him down.
