When elder Zhou heard that Han Cai was not in any faction, he raised an eyebrow. "Weren't you in elder Ji's faction?"

Han Cai replied, "Yes, Elder, but I come from a humble background. Can not afford to stay quarters of Ji faction."

Elder Zhou understood what Han Cai meant: He could not afford two spirit stones per month, which all the disciples in the Ji faction had to pay.

Elder Zhou nodded and asked, "Does elder Ji knows that you have reached level 1 of Qi condensation and crane sword technique".

Han Cai responded, "No, Elder, I did not get an opportunity to report to elder ji yet."

Elder Zhou had a broad smile on his face. He put a thoughtful expression on his face and said, "How about this you can join my faction. You will not have to pay for any spirit stones or do any chores. If you have any doubts about your cultivation, you can come to ask me any time without any worry."

The Elder stopped speaking; Then he saw Han Cai was not interested. Han Cai was thinking about How he should reject the Elder.

Seeing Han Cai not interested, Elder decided to up the offer. Han Cai was inner sect talent, and he had to have this talent in his faction before anyone found out. Elder Zhou's faction was one of the new factions in the outer sect, and they had no backing from the Inner Sect. It was god sent opportunity for him to have inner sect-level talent in his faction.

Elder continued, "Also, we will add you as one of the disciples working for the outer disciple hall. It will be just on paper; you don't have to do anything in the hall; cultivate and improve your cultivation. You will get paid an extra spirit stone in your monthly allowance".

Han Cai was stumped as he did not expect Elder Zhou to recruit him into his faction out of the blue with such a lucrative offer. Now his plans will have to change. He will not need to take any missions, and he can cultivate peacefully under the protection of Elder Zhou. Plus, he will be getting an extra spirit stone.

He had tried his best to hide his cultivation so no one thought he was a genius or something. Did the Elder notice something?

He recalled the elder reaction changed when he mentioned the sword technique, and realization dawned on him that to cultivate the skill, one needs to cultivate Qi Condensation level one first, so He was still an outstanding genius in the eyes of the Elder. Han Cai felt shame; He thought he was smart enough. How could he make such an obvious mistake?

Cultivating the Qi condensation level one took him one and a half years. That is not genius but cultivating sword technique to level one within a few months of reaching cultivation level one was genius.

If Han Cai rejected his good intentions, the Elder might feel offended. The one extra Elder is giving him leverage; he probably thinks of Han Cai as an investment.

Han Cai thought for a while, then bowed, "I will be in your care, elder."

Elder Zhou almost laughed out loud. He could not believe he could poach such an inner sect-level talent under elder Ji's nose.

If Han Cai participates in the outer sect battle arena with his level 1 sword skill, he would be in the top 100 outer sect disciples. But that was not the most critical part; the most crucial factor was that he would come in the top ten regarding sword talent. Most capable outer sect disciples who mastered the sword technique were at least 15 years old.

For the skilled disciples, Even if they joined the sect at the age of 10, which was the minimum age requirement for entering the Sky Soaring Sect. It would take those disciples 2 to 3 years to get their cultivation to reach Qi condensation level 1. Only when their cultivation reached Qi condensation level could they practice crane sword style. Mastering the sword style takes them another two to three years.

Elder Zhou spoke, "But make sure to participate in the outer sect competition in summer, and it will help you in your cultivation"
