For a moment, unable to reach a consensus, the Sect Master had no choice but to state his stance.
Mo Ruhai synthesized everyone's opinions and said, "I know all of your opinions, which generally fall into two categories. One, we must adhere to the rules. Two, we should select talent without restriction. Therefore, I'll take a middle path, adhering to the rules while selecting talent without restriction. In this case, let's appoint an Inner Sect Disciple to compete against Yang Fan. If Yang Fan wins and becomes an Inner Sect Disciple, then no one will have objections. Does anyone have any other opinions?"
This compromise accommodated both sides, and naturally, the others had no objections.
Only Qin Cangsong spoke up, "Senior Brother, besides strength, one must have the ability to stand independently. This is the common standard for becoming an Inner Sect Disciple, and it mustn't be overlooked."
