Zelia could only shake her head when she heard that. “I don’t have an answer to that. Perhaps he is


    simply a receipt of divine favor.”


    Celeste disyed a tinge of envy when she heard that. Despite her status as a core disciple with the


    coveted Forest Constitution that resonated with wood affinity. However, it was only an Element


    Constitution that paled inparison to Severin’s Divine Constitution.


    Some core disciples had no interest in securing any positions, but they would not pass up the


    opportunity topete for a ce in Mind’s Grandiuno Sacred Land. That sacrednd was rumored


    to have been an ancient and prosperous sect that held great allure. The founder of the Grandiuno Sect


    hailed from Mind, and the south was considered inferior inparison. Supreme saints were


    regarded as ordinary in Mind where paragons were the requirement to enter. Even a royal paragon


    was not particrly prestigious there.


    Celeste’s eyes revealed yearning and a sense of conflict as the notion of Mind appeared in her


    mind.


    She took a deep breath and muttered to herself, “Guess we’ll have to win him over then.”


    At the same time, Raymond was enjoying his tea in a rustic–looking pce on a floating ind near the


    Fourth Mountain. Having recently emerged from seclusion, he had yet to retract the spiritual energy in


    his


    body. The overflowing surge of aura was like a wild beast, and it carried a strong pressure that could


    intimidate and stifle a person.


    His attainment had improved tremendously in the past half–year, and he had already reached level


    nine


    supreme saint. By his estimation, he would need only a year or so before he could try to make a


    breakthrough to paragon!


    After sipping some hot tea, he asked, “Has anything transpired in the sect during my half–year of


    seclusion?”


    nking him were two young men with an attainment level of level four or level five supreme saint, and


    they immediately brought him up to speed with what happened.


    “Karl the other core disciples are in seclusion, so there’s not much information avable about them.


    Severin, however, has ranked third in the Alchemy Tower in just over half a year. He clinched that spot


    from Emery.”


    “What?! He’s already surpassed Emery?!” The news startled Raymond, prompting him to demand a


    detailed ount. “I want to know every single detail surrounding that feat!”


    The two men proceeded to tell him everything. Upon learning the specifics, Raymond was


    dumbfounded, especially upon knowing that it took only half a year to surpass Emery. He did not


    expect that something


    Having listened to everything, Raymond sat in momentary silence before snapping back to his senses.


    “I never would have thought that he would be such a talented prodigy even in alchemy. Has divine


    favor yed a role, I wonder?”


    Those who could be core disciples were strong, talented, and powerful. Celeste might be the


    weakest among them in terms of attainment, but her talent in alchemy was exceptional. Every one of


    the core disciples had superior Element Constitutions, and rumor had it that Karl had a Divine


    Constitution so great that energy poured in upon his birth and even nature seemed to celebrate his


    arrival. The elders all looked favorably upon him as a result.

    Raymond had previously found out that Severin was appointed as the sixth core disciple due to a


    divine constitution, and it was all the more surprising to know that Severin had amazing alchemical


    talent. He believed that the almighty must have had a soft spot for Severin.


    As he contemted the covert rivalry between the sect’s core disciples, Raymond snapped back to his


    senses and had a sudden thought. I need to win him over.”
