After practising in the Gold Quarter for three days, Ezra was now a little more interested in the higher-ranked Diamond Quarter

Since a Gold Quarter was already so amazing, what level did a Diamond Quarter reach?

What's more, it was said that if one became one of the ten rankers in the outer mountains, one would be able to enjoy an entire Energy Mountain alone. There would only be a single spiritual quarter on these Energy Mountains, and all its spiritual energy would be provided solely to that lone spiritual quarter. One's martial prowess would likely be even more rapid in such a place.

Those spiritual quarters were called Ruby Quarters and were even higher ranked than the Diamond grade. Of course, even Elder Lo and the rest did not have the qualifications to give a quarter of that calibre. Approval would have to be given by the Peak Master of Alchemic Rune Peak and the other six peak masters.

However, a Ruby Quarter was too distant to Ezra Zephyr at this current time. For now, he decided that he would first aim for a Diamond Quarter.

He had finally been able to sort out his thoughts towards Lo over the past few days. Since the latter valued him so greatly, there was no need for him to modestly decline any more. He understood that Elder Lo merely hoped that this new champion of the peak selection ceremony would be different from the rest. 

Lo prayed that after some grooming, Ezra would be able to display his potential and rise above the numerous other disciples to eventually become the chief disciple of Alchemic Rune Peak, evolve the alchemy and bring back glory to them. Although that idea was naive, alchemy is not a trivial thing, since the pill formulas are so rare and kept secret, not the mention the complicated procedures where a single mistake could destroy not only the pill but valuable ingredients as well.

How could a mere new disciple from a remote continent revive the alchemy, this goal would seem illogical to any sane mind. However, Lo was lucky, tremendously lucky. To his fortune, this goal of his was exactly the same as Ezra's own. After all, he intentionally chose this peak.

Ezra looked at the beautiful sunlight as he came out and stepped onto a boulder and rose into the air, heading straight for the so-called Alpha Cliff.

Along the way, he met Elder Lo and the other new disciples. They made quite a ruckus as they travelled together.

After about a dozen minutes, their speed gradually slowed as their gazes looked to the front where a giant mountain pierced through the clouds. At its peak seemed to be a giant green cliff.

The cliff looked very out of place with the mountain, as if it had been placed here from somewhere else. This cliff was likely the Alpha Cliff.

On the green cliff stood a large green hall.

Numerous spiritual energy clouds were currently flying over, landing one by one just outside the hall.

The prince and the rest also landed before the giant green hall and discovered three simple, bold words above it.

"Pill Seeker Hall."

Ezra and the gang stepped into the hall, finding its insides rather spacious and grand. The interior of the hall seemed to be built up like steps, and at the very top sat Elder Lo's figure.

On the wide steps that descended downwards were old-looking cauldrons.

These cauldrons came in three varieties, silver, gold and diamond.

The diamond cauldrons were located higher up, and were nearest to Elder Lo, followed by the gold cauldrons and then the silver cauldrons at the very bottom… it was obvious that these mats represented the status of the disciples.

Ezra's gaze swept across the mats, faintly feeling a peculiar ripple spreading from them. These were no simple cauldrons at all.

There were only eight diamond cauldrons and in front of those cauldrons were mats, on which eight figures were already seated. At their head was Mubarak and they were clearly the eight Diamond Belt Disciples under Elder Lo.

When Ezra walked into the large hall, numerous gazes shot towards him. Mubarak smiled warmly at him, but the other disciples' expressions were unreadable.

The three diamond belt disciples closest to Mubarak in particular seemed to size Ezra up with sharp gazes.

"Ezra, you shall sit there."

Elder Lo likewise caught sight of the prince. However, the former's expression remained as cold and stoic as a rock as he extended a hand and pointed towards a certain spot below.

It was the third spot amongst the gold cauldrons.

Elder Lo's actions immediately caused a buzz to grow in the hall, envy appearing in the eyes of many disciples.

The mats here were not some free-for-all seating. The closer one was to the front, the greater the benefits. At the same time, it also represents one's status, and the third gold cauldron represented the third seat of the gold belt disciples.

If Ezra was seated there, it meant that even the more veteran gold belt disciples that had joined earlier but were ranked below the third seat had to call him senior brother.

In the official outer mountains, rank was even more strictly adhered to, and was nowhere near as relaxed as the unofficial outer mountains where one would address another based on age.

Normally speaking, however, new disciples would be placed towards the back, and slowly rise up as time passed. It was very rare to see someone like Ezra Zephyr who would be given the gold belt third seat right away.

The prince also understood this, but he was already over it. Since Elder Lo was grasping onto him as if he was the final straw, there was no need for him to act too modestly. He would receive any benefit with open arms, all he had to do was return the favour later on – or not, depending on how it affects his plan.

Thus, he ignored the many gazes that were sizing him up or judging him and walked directly towards the mat in front of 3rd gold cauldron.

However, the moment he reached it, he suddenly felt a gaze filled with hostility.

He looked over, only to find that it belonged to a long-haired young man that was seated on the fourth gold mat and was currently looking at him with a dark expression. It was the youth known as Pele.
