My Master Knows It All

840: 240_6 840: 240_6 But for people from other peaks, it was different; they were there to snatch disciples.

Now that Liao You Di had made it clear she wanted to join a Fire System Peak, they naturally wouldn’t stay here.

They needed to hurry to other academies to snatch up other disciples.

As people from various peaks left, the previously crowded auxiliary courtyard quickly became empty.

Representatives of each Fire System Peak also came forward one by one, starting to tout their respective advantages.

Among the crowd, a somewhat thin Peak Master with a flush on his face and a faint smell of alcohol about him spoke first, “I am the Peak Master of Liquor Fire Peak.

There are various flames in the world, many of which are indeed scarce, but, scarcity does not equate to uniqueness.

Our Liquor Fire Peak’s flame is the unique Liquor Flame, and in the entire world, only our Liquor Fire Peak can cultivate the Liquor Flame.”

“Liquor Flame?

Your Liquor Flame is just so-so,” another Peak Master interjected, immediately trying to tear him down.

“Yes, your Liquor Fire Peak is only ranked in the forties.

Our Sacred Fire Peak’s ranking is above yours.”

The Peak Master of Liquor Fire Peak, hearing this, let out a scornful laugh, “Your Sacred Fire Peak is only ranked above ours now, but Liquor Fire Peak once ranked in the top ten of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Your Sacred Fire Peak has never reached the top ten of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

The reason why Liquor Fire Peak was once ranked in the top ten was because of our Liquor Flame.

The reason our ranking fell later was only because we did not recruit disciples with sufficient talent.

It is our fault, not the failure of our Liquor Fire Peak’s legacy.

Our Liquor Fire Peak’s legacy has never been broken!”

He spoke the truth, and indeed, the decline of Liquor Fire Peak was because they hadn’t recruited disciples with enough talent.

Every ten years, the Hundred Peaks Sect would go out to recruit Taoist boys, and over those ten years, the recruited boys would gradually enter the selection process for discipleship.

However, not every year in those ten years would produce disciples with enough genius, and even if there were genius disciples, they wouldn’t necessarily suit one’s own peak.

For example, if you belong to a Fire System Peak but come across someone with a Profound Ice Body, no matter how envious you are, you can’t take them as your disciple.

So, the chance of a genius disciple suitable for one’s own peak emerging is extremely low.

When such genius disciples do appear, it’s not just one peak that seeks to recruit them; all the peaks would compete for them.

One year, a top-level Immortal Body with a Fire Body emerged, and back then Liquor Fire Peak did indeed rank among the top ten peaks.

They had a very good chance of recruiting this disciple into Liquor Fire Peak.

The only real competition they had was Azure Pheasant Peak.

Since it was a boy, Vermilion Bird Peak, which does not accept male disciples, was out of the running, and Liquor Fire Peak was ranked even higher than Azure Pheasant Peak at the time.

In such a situation, it was naturally the Peak Master’s responsibility to attend, but, unbelievably, the Peak Master of Liquor Fire Peak had drunk too much and passed out, sleeping for three full days, completely missing the opportunity.

Moreover, they didn’t even know where their Peak Master had been when he passed out drunk.

All they could do was send the Vice Peak Master instead, and of course, they were unable to outcompete Azure Pheasant Peak in the end.

It was hard enough when such a suitable genius disciple appeared once, but when the second genius disciple emerged, their Peak Master of Liquor Fire Peak was again away and didn’t return in time.

After missing out on two such talented disciples, and with their Peak Master’s passing, Liquor Fire Peak was without a strong leader for a long time, and gradually, they also fell into decline.

Although it still belonged to the Upper Fifty Peaks, it could no longer showcase the glory of its early days.

Even so, the foundation of Liquor Fire Peak remained.

The Peak Master of Liquor Fire Peak looked at Liao Youdi earnestly and sincerely said, “I admit that our Liquor Fire Peak is not the strongest among the fire system peaks today, but our foundation, our resources, are not inferior to those of Vermilion Bird Peak and Azure Pheasant Peak, let alone Sacred Fire Peak.

These years, the reason why Liquor Fire Peak has not risen is that we haven’t had the right disciple.

Now, that disciple has appeared, and it is you.”

“As long as you join our Liquor Fire Peak, we can present you with our purest fire liquor, a special flame created by our Peak Founding Ancestor.

Upon consumption, it can condense the strongest liquor flame.

The reason we have not produced such top-genius disciples over the years is that no one from our Liquor Fire Peak has ever taken pure fire liquor and no one has refined the strongest, purest form of liquor flame.”

“Just join our Liquor Fire Peak, and once your cultivation base is strong enough to withstand the pure fire liquor, I will bestow it upon you to condense the strongest liquor flame.

You must realize that even my master, an elder of the Earth Immortal Realm who now lies in slumber, has never tasted the pure fire liquor!”

He really put everything on the line and was genuinely ready to take a risk.

In fact, last year, when Yi Sheng and that batch of disciples were choosing apprentices, he had repeatedly advised his master to promise Yi Sheng the pure fire liquor to get him to join their Liquor Fire Peak!

But after much deliberation, his master still refused.

He knew why his master had refused.

Because the pure fire liquor was simply too scarce; their Peak Founding Ancestor had managed to refine only a small amount by chance.

Over the years, only enough pure fire liquor remained for two people to use, to condense the true liquor flame!

This was why his master was hesitant to make any rash promises.

Otherwise, with such a high-level Immortal Body, the best talent for immortal cultivation, why wouldn’t his master make the promise?

It was solely because the pure fire liquor was too precious.

After all, having a high-level Immortal Body didn’t necessarily mean one would achieve high accomplishments; it also depended on the individual’s perceptiveness and character.

According to his master, indeed, only those with a high-level Immortal Body deserved their precious pure fire liquor, but it must only be used when the person matured, when their character and perceptiveness were sufficiently developed.

To put it plainly, his master believed that only disciples with a high-level Immortal Body who had reached the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection were qualified to use their Liquor Fire Peak’s pure fire liquor!

However, without offering the pure fire liquor, how could a top Immortal Body be enticed to join their Liquor Fire Peak?

Now, he was in charge of Liquor Fire Peak, and he believed it was time to make some strategic changes.
