"Hmph."
Yan Zhao glanced at the master sister who turned and looked toward the Shadow Wall Stone, secretly wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Nine Layers Mountain is different from other sects in one aspect. In other sects, disciples are usually divided into ranks.
For example, Outer Sect, Inner Sect, direct disciples, and closed-door disciples. These disciples are also ranked based on their entry time, with earlier entrants as senior brothers, and later entrants can only be junior brothers unless you move from Outer to Inner Sect or from Inner to direct. Otherwise, you're always a junior brother.
But Nine Layers Mountain is different.
Though it also ranks positions within, it's based on strength. If you think you should be the master brother, then challenge them. As long as you defeat them, you're the master brother. The whole Nine Layers Mountain doesn't care about seniority; if you're strong, you're the boss.
