From the power of space to the heavens 2

Chapter 1220. Title

to be frank.

This was not the first time Mu Qingluan saw Lu Yuan.

of course.

This was not the first time Lu Yuan saw Mu Qingluan.

As early as when Lu Yuan ventured into Zhongzhou, he had had many interactions with Mu Qingluan. Feng Qing'er was present at many of them. For example, during the trip to the Tianshan Blood Pool, there was a conflict between the Fenglei Pavilion and the Xingyun Pavilion, so much so that Feng Qing'er and Mu Qingluan had a duel on the way to the Blood Pool, which ended in nothing.

But the problem is that this is the first time for Mu Qingluan and Lu Yuan to discuss seniority, which results in both sides not knowing how to address each other because the relationship is too complicated.

From the perspective of Yao Lao and Feng Zunzhe.

Lu Yuan should call Mu Qingluan "Senior Sister".

Because Yao Lao and Venerable Feng are of the same generation.

According to the system of Xingyun Pavilion.

First of all, purely considering seniority, the eldest senior brother should be Han Feng, because when Han Feng backstabbed Yao Lao, Mu Qingluan had not yet joined Xingyun Pavilion and became a disciple of Feng Zun. Although Han Feng's character was not very good, his strength was not very good, and his talent was only average, the foundation that Yao Lao had worked hard to build for him was completely destroyed by his shortcuts. Otherwise, he would not have been only a Dou Huang in the era when Xiao Yan rose to power. According to Yao Lao's original estimate, if Han Feng followed the plan, he was sure to train Han Feng to Dou Zun. As for whether Han Feng could enter the transfer stage, that was uncertain. After all, That depends on whether his medicine refining skills have improved. If he reaches the ninth rank, Han Feng will have a chance to advance. If he does not reach the ninth rank, then it depends on Han Feng's own luck. Although Yao Lao's inference sounds too humble, one thing to know is that in an active state, Yao Lao never fights a battle without confidence. This means that Yao Lao can guarantee a lower limit for Han Feng and ensure that Han Feng can at least become a Dou Zun. As long as Han Feng works harder, he will definitely be above this level. It can be said that Yao Lao has invested absolute effort in Han Feng and really raised Han Feng as his son.

Just like Po and Da Lung in Kung Fu Panda.

Xiao Yan is Abao.

Of course, it is an enhanced version of Po.

And Han Feng is the big dragon.

Of course, it is a weakened dragon.

all in all.

If Han Feng hadn’t stabbed Yao Lao in the back.

The current young master of Xingyun Pavilion is Han Feng.

Instead of Mu Qingluan.

However, we have to mention here that even Mu Qingluan is not the young pavilion master at present. The current young pavilion master of Xingyun Pavilion is Xiao Yan. As for the eldest senior sister, she is Mu Qingluan as always.

A normal sect.

From bottom to top.

Within the limitations of the disciple’s identity.

It can be divided into six levels.

The first level is the outer disciples, who are disciples who have passed the assessment and joined the sect according to rigid standards. Most of them are in the stage of laying the foundation, accounting for more than 85% of the total number of disciples in a sect, and represent all living beings in the world.

The second tier is the outer sect senior brother or sister. Although this title sounds meaningless, most sects still set up such a title to judge the level of the new generation of disciples, because the outer sect senior brothers and sisters all relied on their own strength to fight their way up. Even if there are dirty things in the sect, such as two factions or even multiple factions fighting each other, those who can sit in the position of senior brother or sister are not only the strongest among the outer sect disciples, but also the best in scheming and skills among their peers. Judging the future potential of the sect by observing such top geniuses is the reason why most sects promote this method.

The third tier is the inner disciples. There is no need to say more about this. Most sects maintain the ratio of inner and outer disciples between ten to one and twenty to one, that is, there is one inner disciple for every ten to twenty outer disciples. Although there are hard indicators, it is well known that this is just a benchmark for the sect leader to adjust at will. When he realizes that the average strength of the outer disciples has decreased, in order to avoid imbalance between the inside and the outside, he will lower it appropriately. But if the outer disciples become stronger and stronger, the hard regulations for entering the inner gate will naturally become higher and higher. The so-called hardness is only relative to the disciples, and it can actually be adjusted.

The fourth level is the inner sect senior brother or sister, who is also the strongest person under the true disciples and the young sect master. He has the ability to command the sect disciples to a certain extent. Even the outer sect senior brother or sister must obey the orders of the inner sect senior brother or sister. Therefore, in addition to his own strong strength, the person in office must also have the ability to convince others, or at least not give people an excuse to criticize him.

And above the eldest senior brother of the inner sect.

That is the fifth level.

They are the rare true disciples.

The positioning of true disciples is rather vague.

Some people say that they are also part of the inner gate, because they all live in the inner gate and do not have separate mountains and courtyards like many elders and deacons. To put it more clearly, they do not have the authority to set up their own household and live in a separate small courtyard, which is the daily accommodation area for disciples.

But some people also say that they are not part of the inner gate, but exist above the inner gate, because the inner gate senior brother or the inner gate senior sister clearly does not have the power to order the true disciples, which is clearly written in the sect rules. Although the sect rules do not state whether the true disciples have the power to order the inner gate senior brothers in turn, even if we do not consider the meaning that not writing it is equivalent to tacit consent, just the rules that have been written are enough to ensure that the status of any core disciple is high above.

Moreover, the output of true disciples is more random.

Enter the inner door from the outer door.

At least there are indicators.

Between ten and twenty people.

Even though the strength of the outer disciples is average, it has declined compared to previous years.

As for the positions of the eldest senior brother and eldest senior sister.

Normally, there is only one.

Very few have two.

In short, in a normal sect, there will be a senior brother or a senior sister in every generation, it’s just a matter of quality.

But it is different for true disciples.

There are no clear selection criteria for true disciples.

It can even be said that age is not enough to be an indicator.

Some true disciples can enter the sect at the age of six, and as soon as they start to practice, they show a talent that shocks the world. This is their reason, and it doesn't even matter what their character is. However, some true disciples reach this step at the age of sixty, and it is not because of their talent, but their extraordinary character, which cannot be surpassed even by their merits. No matter how much merit you have made for the sect, as long as you have not shown any advantages that will attract the attention of the sect's top leaders, the position of true disciples would rather be vacant, or even not exist, and will never be given out indiscriminately, because true disciples will inevitably be able to access a sect's core inheritance, and there will be no mercy in this regard.

So, in the vast majority of cases.

Don’t think that the eldest senior brother in the outer sect is replaced every year.

Enter the inner door.

These geniuses who were replaced may not necessarily become true disciples.

Therefore, if the outer sect senior brother represents the highest level of a sect's younger generation and can be used to tell whether a sect is in a period of transition, then the inner sect senior brother represents the face of a sect in terms of disciples. If a sect's own disciples are in the right but are bullied by disciples from other sects outside, and the inner sect senior brother does not step forward, it means that the sect is cowardly. Although in theory, true disciples and the sect's deacons, elders, sect masters, supreme ancestors and others can all take action to regain this face, this will undoubtedly give the sect a more shameful reputation and will be said by outsiders to be something they can't afford to play with.

Besides.

The stability of a sect can also be seen from the eldest brother or eldest sister of the inner sect, because the future development positioning of the eldest brother of the inner sect is to become a great elder of the sect, or an elder with real power. They are the ones who can truly reach the grassroots level of the sect.

As for the core disciples...

Their future position is to be the backbone of the sect...

Refer to the Supreme Elder...

To put it more bluntly.

They just need to make sure they are strong enough.

This is to ensure the sect's foundation and combat effectiveness.

They don't need to worry about the rest.

Whatever they need, the people below will naturally prepare it for them.

For specific details, please refer to Yunlan Sect.

The Yunlan Sect lost its only Dou Zun.

The result was that he was immediately attacked by everyone.

Coupled with the chaos in internal command, it declined in a short period of time.

However, after only a few generations, they declined to the point where they could only survive on the northwest continent, and even needed to take elixirs to break through to the Dou Zong level.

If only there was still a Dou Zun in Yunlan Sect at that time.

Even if there is internal chaos.

At most, we can retreat to a corner.

Lost the original positive and enterprising spirit.

Just like the previous Xingyun Pavilion.

This is the importance of strong people to the sect.

Managers determine the development trend of a sect, just like a hundred gold coins. An excellent manager can earn a thousand gold coins with these hundred gold coins, while a manager below the average may lose fifty gold coins with these hundred gold coins. The strong ones determine the survival of a sect. Even if you encounter an unreliable manager, I have money and I am happy to let you manage it. I am not afraid of losing. This is enough. Even if you lose half every time, as long as I can provide this sect with 10,000 gold coins, even if you lose five thousand, there will still be five thousand gold coins left.

Therefore, the positioning of true disciples and inner sect senior brothers is completely different, although there are many sects where true disciples also serve as inner sect senior brothers, including Xingyun Pavilion, that is, Mu Qingluan, who is a true disciple and also serves as the senior sister of Xingyun Pavilion.

Worth to talk about.

In some of the top sects.

True disciples can also be called Holy Sons.

Or a saint.

He is the one who can take over the position of clan leader in the future.

However, the number of holy sons and holy daughters cannot be determined.

For example, in the same period, two equally talented people, or three, four or even more equally talented people appeared. In this case, they would be ranked as the true disciples at the same time, and they would compete for the second time. If they won, they could be trained as the young sect leader. If they lost, they would not be mortal enemies. If they survived by chance, or voluntarily admitted defeat, they could still be promoted as elders according to their current era.

As for the sixth level.

He is the young sect leader.

For example, Xingyun Pavilion.

The current young master of Xingyun Pavilion is Xiao Yan.

of course.

There is no inside story here.

Feng Zunzhe's identity has always been the deputy pavilion master. Before Yao Lao was backstabbed by Han Feng, his position was the deputy pavilion master. After Yao Lao was backstabbed by Han Feng, although everyone inside and outside Xingyun Pavilion changed their way of addressing Feng Zunzhe as the pavilion master, Feng Zunzhe's position was still the deputy pavilion master. No promotion ceremony was held, but he just did not deny the title to the outside world. After all, Xingyun Pavilion at that time needed someone to stand up and lead the others to withstand the pressure from the other three pavilions. Feng Zunzun had no choice but to take over. At least he wanted to let the others know that Xingyun Pavilion was not doomed, and that he, Feng Xian, still existed.

Therefore, the official title of Mu Qingluan should be the direct disciple of the deputy leader of Xingyun Pavilion, and also the eldest sister of the inner disciples of Xingyun Pavilion.

As for who the eldest senior brother or sister of the outer sect is...

unimportant……

After all, Xingyun Pavilion holds an examination for admission from the outer sect to the inner sect every three years, which means that the eldest senior brother or sister of the outer sect in each generation will join the inner sect and become an ordinary member of the inner sect disciples less than three years after taking office.

So, no matter you are a dragon or a tiger.

Once you enter the inner gate, you still have to start your life from scratch.

And after Yao Lao returned.

There is no need to change the position of Feng Zun.

Because his position has always been deputy leader.

I am just acting on behalf of the Pavilion Master Yao Lao.

Moreover, the relationship between the two was very good and they didn't care about this. Even before Yao Lao was backstabbed by Han Feng, all the big and small matters of Xingyun Pavilion were still handled by Feng Zun. At most, there were certain issues that needed to be discussed, such as whether Xingyun Pavilion agreed to cooperate, and if so, whether there were any requirements for the identity of the partner, and whether it was necessary to investigate the relevant background.

In short, Yao Lao decides the direction.

The specific details are still controlled by Master Feng.

Therefore, Xiao Yan's current identity has become the disciple of the Pavilion Master of Xingyun Pavilion. Moreover, since his senior brother Han Feng has died, Lu Yuan joined the sect relatively late. In addition, Lu Yuan only worshipped Yao Lao as his master in alchemy, and was later transferred to become Xuan Yi's closed disciple. Therefore, no one can compete with Xiao Yan for this position.

So, for Mu Qingluan.

From the perspective of both masters.

She should call Lu Yuan "Junior Brother Lu".

But if we start from the perspective of strength.

Don't say it's her.

Even if the ancestor of their Qingluan clan came.

When seeing Lu Yuan, everyone would call him senior.

It's just like meeting Yao Lao.

Because Yao Lao is currently a Fighting Saint.

Therefore, Mu Qingluan's network of contacts can now be compared with that of her own race, and is even ahead to a certain extent, because Yao Lao is not just a simple Dou Sheng. Above this identity, the identity of a ninth-grade alchemist is undoubtedly more dazzling.

But from the perspective of friendship.

Considering Feng Qing'er's situation.

She should call Lu Yuan "Brother Lu".

Because we were of the same generation before.

The relationship between Master Feng and Xuan Yi is just average.

After all, Xuan Yi and Feng Zunzhe had no common topics.

Fox Jiujiu and Feng Zunzhe are the most familiar with each other.

Because the trio back then were Fox Jiujiu, Feng Zunzhe and Yao Lao.

It can be said that the three of them have experienced life and death together.

The second is Hua Zong.

Venerable Feng is also quite familiar with Hua Zong.

But because Yao Lao died before.

This relationship gradually became unsustainable.

Therefore, Mu Qingluan was at a loss as to how to address her.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan reacted quickly enough.

He dodged and landed in front of Mu Qingluan.

He bowed and smiled, "Senior Sister Qingluan?"
