The group had already left the red door, that is, they were in the humongous hall as Zhao Luo and the others made their way towards the living zone.
Mo Anna walked side by side with Zhao Luo while frequently glancing at him.
She obviously wanted to say something but couldn't find the right timing for it.
While behind her, the others were busy talking and getting familiar with each other.
Zhao Luo who was at the front had a smile on his face as he listened to his brothers talking about how they smashed the other disciples single-handedly while overpowering the top disciples with just a finger.
'They could become the leaders of bluffing.'
Zhao Luo thought as he kept his focus on their discussion and never realized that Mo Anna was looking at him.
Just then, Senior Cutie suddenly walked up to them and joined the two.
"Little Brother, you are really stupid."
Senior Cutie said to Zhao Luo while looking at Mo Anna.
It was like he was scolding Zhao Luo for not paying attention to the more important matter.
"What?"
Zhao Luo was confused as he looked at the baldy who was acting up again.
"If you stay like this, you will end up like them too."
Senior Cutie pointed at the others while grinning.
"Ah."
Zhao Luo understood what he was saying and looked at Mo Anna.
While Mo Anna already had her face directed towards their destination.
Zhao Luo sulked but Senior Cutie didn't leave them just yet.
"What is your plan now?"
He asked Zhao Luo in a serious tone.
"Hmm, I want to get stronger, so I need to train harder. Also, I have yet to take missions, so I want to do missions."
Zhao Luo told Senior Cutie while thinking of his plans in a considerable manner.
He had yet to complete any mission since it had only been a week since Zhao Luo had advanced to an outer disciple.
The five lines '/' on his badge shined as he spoke to his senior.
"The best way to get stronger will be by becoming an inner disciple."
Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo as though he could only hear the first part of Zhao Luo's answer.
"But don't I have to complete missions before I can advance to an inner disciple?"
Zhao Luo questioned in return.
He still remembered how he had to complete a specific number of missions before he could be eligible to advance.
"Generally yes. The condition of competing missions is there to make the disciples stronger. Going on missions allows the disciples to come face to face with the hardships of the outside territories and unknown places. Thus improving their senses and conditioning their physical bodies to the extreme."
Senior Cutie started explaining to Zhao Luo.
The others who were following behind them were also listening to this conversation.
"But what about the top disciples of the outer hall?"
Senior Cutie asked Zhao Luo and the others.
"From the top disciples, I mean the top hundred or the top thousand, the ones who have already completed many missions and area already at the ninth level '∆' but they are still far away from the first rank and instead of being the first they are at different rank."
Senior Cutie explained his question to them and everyone started pondering over it.
The disciples he was talking about included himself too.
Zhao Luo realized where Senio Cutie's question was pointing at.
"These disciples have already reached the limits of their physical abilities."
Zhao Luo told the others as he understood the question perfectly and reached a very ideal answer.
"Indeed."
"They have already done more missions than anybody else to earn points. Using those points on strengthening techniques thus increasing their strength to the point where they could reach the ninth level '∆'. But they still couldn't reach the first rank thus their only option is advancing to inner disciples."
"But what do you think about a person who is at the top?"
Senior Cutie stopped causing everyone to halt.
He then touched Zhao Luo's chest with his index finger but didn't remove it and instead moved it on his chest in a circle causing Zhao Luo to faint from getting creeped out.
'Tap.'
Zhao Luo stepped back and opened his mouth.
"I don't know."
Zhao Luo said.
"How would I know what happens to the top disciple?"
"I didn't even get any reward for getting the first rank!"
Zhao Luo let out his answer in a brief manner.
"The rewards of being the first disciple is that the one with the first rank in the outer hall can advance to the inner hall and become an inner disciple without advancing to the ninth level or completing any missions. Even though it's impossible but such a rule does exist since someone had already done so."
Senior Cutie couldn't hide the growing respect in his eyes as he mentioned about the reward of the first disciple and the origin of such a rule which served as the reward.
"Could it be the first elder?"
Zhao Luo asked since he still remembered the tale of the First Elder from Mite.
"Yes. But that is not the reason why I am telling you this."
"I know. You want me to advance to an inner disciple, right?"
Zhao Luo could guess as, since the start of Senior Cutie's explanation, he already knew there was a reason like this behind it.
"Yes, but not only you, the others too. I think everybody here has completed many missions. They just need to advance to the ninth level '∆' after taking the strength test. Then they can all proceed to the inner hall to take the advancing test too."
Senior Cutie looked at the others as he explained to Zhao Luo.
'Well, I didn't know that such a privilege was granted to the King of the Outer Hall.'
Zhao Luo mumbled and nodded as he gave it a serious thought.
'I can also learn about the inner energy if I become an inner disciple.'
Zhao Luo mysteriously smiled as he stopped pondering over his decision.
"I will advance to an inner disciple."
Zhao Luo announced with confidence.
