After the "interview" was over, Master Ma took Du Youqian to the Dharma Transmission Hall to change his status.
"Registering him as an Inner Disciple? So soon? It's only been, what, seven months since he joined the Outer Sect? And Master Ma, you're taking him as your personal disciple?" The Steward on duty first put on a fawning smile and showered Master Ma with flattery.
Only then did he earnestly begin the process of changing Du Youqian's status.
"Cultivation level? Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer?" His eyes widened in disbelief. "Nephew Qiu, you have a Lower Grade Fire Spirit Root, don't you?"
"Yes."
"When you joined the sect... let me see... you hadn't even started your Cultivation. And in seven months, you're already at the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer?" As he spoke, the Steward's voice even began to tremble.
It wasn't impossible for a new disciple to reach the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer in seven months.
