In the opinions of the peak masters, acquiring Severin as an elder brought a deluge of benefits. Firstly,


    a seventh-grade alchemist stationed in their mountain could guarantee a steady supply of pills for their


    disciples. Secondly, resource allocation by the sect might slightly tilt in their favor.


    As a result, the peak masters of all nine mountains rushed to persuade Severin into joining them.


    Myles, the first of the peak masters who arrived, came to realize that his offer was bing much less


    attractive inparison to the other people’s soaring bids. He anxiously approached Severin and said,


    “If you join the Seventh Mountain, I’ll grant you the position of deputy peak master, two spiritual


    treasures, and two seventh-grade herbs! You’ll also be given full ess over our alchemy resources


    for your alchemy needs!”


    The surrounding peak masters scoffed at Myles’ cunning tactic to sweeten the deal. They knew full well


    that the Seventh Mountain had little resources because their focus was on swordsmanship!


    Danie had the same thought as well, and she feltpelled to roll her eyes at Myles before


    addressing Severin, “Since you are now a seventh-grade alchemist, your ability aligns perfectly with


    that of the Sixth Mountain’s focus, which is alchemy. I will appoint you deputy peak master, and I


    assure you that you’ll have no shortage of herbs for you to use in your training!”


    It went without saying that the Sixth Mountain was the best ce for a person to refine the alchemy


    craft. As the Sixth Mountain peak master and a seventh-grade medium-rank alchemist who oversaw


    the Alchemy Chamber, she could ensure that Severin would receive unlimited resources.


    She knew better than anyone the things that truly appealed to a seventh-grade alchemist-it was either


    higher-level knowledge or better quality seventh-grade herbs. In that aspect, the Sixth Mountain was


    far better than all the other mountainsbined.


    As expected, Danie’s words drew groans of disapproval from the other peak masters. Myles, in


    particr, fumed with frustration because he had been first to congratte Severin. “No! I was here


    first! Severin is obliged toe to the Seventh Mountain!”


    Rowan, from the Eighth Mountain, chuckled sarcastically. “And what makes you think this operates on


    a ‘firste, first served’ basis? Shouldn’t Severin have a say in this? Our mountain wees him


    with open arms too.’

    “Our Third Mountain specializes in wood-attribute techniques and we have vast amounts of herbs! You


    should consider us too!”


    “Don’t forget about the Second Mountain! I’ll offer you five seventh- grade herbs and one seventh-


    grade pill!”


    That spectacle doubtlessly drew the attention of nearby disciples, who grew envious when they


    witnessed the nine peak masters lock horns over winning Severin over.


    “I didn’t think Severin would have be a seventh-grade alchemist already!”


    “He’s only the second one so far in entire sect!”


    “That is precisely why all those peak masters are fighting desperately over him!”


    “I wonder when I’ll receive offers of seventh-grade pills and spiritual treasures…”


    “Comparing myself to someone like Severin is just in depressing. He’s in a league of his own.”
