Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1429: Moon Radiance Sect ’Outer Sect

Who is Pierce Reid?

An elder of Moon Radiance Sect!

Though he’s just an ’outer sect elder’, his status within Moon Radiance Sect is second only to the Supreme Elder, Sect Leader, Vice Sect Leader, and some Inner Sect elders.

For a moment, glares filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred were shot at Wyatt Barnes.

"Damn it!"

Uriel Weber’s face changed dramatically.

Vein Weber, who was standing by Pierce Reid’s side, also had a rather unsightly expression now.

He had just solemnly promised his nephew that he would definitely kill Wyatt Barnes... Now, his direct superior, Elder Pierce Reid, was planning to take Wyatt Barnes as his personal disciple?

If he actually became Elder Pierce Reid’s personal disciple, even with ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to act rashly.

Although he could strike in secret, if he succeeded it would be fine, but if he failed, he would be doomed!

"Elder Pierce Reid, thank you for your generous offer... However, I am not considering taking a master for the time being."

Wyatt Barnes apologized with a smile and spoke.

Shocked by Pierce Reid’s initiative to take Wyatt as a disciple, and having just managed to regain their senses, everyone was stunned upon hearing Wyatt’s words.

"This kid really does not know how to appreciate favors!"

"Exactly! Elder Pierce Reid wanted to take him as his disciple, that’s him valuing Wyatt... yet he refused!"

...

Many cursed, thinking Wyatt too ignorant of the ways of the world.

"A petty man achieving success!"

A gleam flashed in Uriel Weber’s eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief as Wyatt rejected Pierce Reid.

Vein Weber’s hanging heart finally settled down.

As long as this purple-clothed youth didn’t become Elder Pierce Reid’s personal disciple, if there was a chance in the future, wouldn’t he just be meat on the chopping board to be slaughtered at will?

Perhaps, even without him acting personally.

"The people from Hill Mountain City... Elder Evander Mullins’s family, will definitely not let this go easily."

Vein Weber sneered inwardly.

Facing Wyatt’s outright rejection, Pierce Reid was also stunned for a moment before reacting with an awkward smile, "That was indeed impolite of me... may I know your esteemed name, young friend?"

Young friend!

Seeing that Pierce Reid, instead of getting angry, referred to Wyatt as ’young friend’, everyone was stunned.

What’s going on?

At this time, shouldn’t Elder Pierce Reid be stripping this purple-clothed youth of his chance to enter Moon Radiance Sect in his anger?

"Wyatt Barnes."

Wyatt Barnes did not expect Pierce Reid to be so easy to talk to and immediately responded with a smile, feeling a bit favorable towards him.

"Wyatt Barnes..."

Pierce Reid nodded slightly, smiled at Wyatt Barnes, and then turned to the outer sect disciple who had come beside Wyatt Barnes, "Take Wyatt Barnes to register at the outer sect."

"Yes."

The outer sect disciple complied and then led Wyatt Barnes away from the stone platform, heading towards the outer sect of Moon Radiance Sect.

As Wyatt Barnes followed the outer sect disciple, he turned back to glance at the Lord of Hill Mountain City, nodded at him, and then looked towards Canny Yorke and Baer Bear.

"I’ll wait for you in the outer sect."

Wyatt Barnes said to the two through the transmission of True Energy.

Both nodded.

Knowing Canny Yorke and Baer Bear’s abilities well, Wyatt was sure they could pass the entrance exam of Moon Radiance Sect and become outer sect disciples.

What Wyatt Barnes didn’t know,

was that after he left the site of the entrance examination of Moon Radiance Sect, among the remaining thirty-odd young talents in the later stage of the Transcending Mortal Realm, two ’dark horses’ emerged, defeating two young talents at the Small Perfection of the Transcending Mortal Realm.

These two dark horses smoothly passed the Moon Radiance Sect’s entrance examination and became outer sect disciples.

"Junior Brother Barnes, I didn’t expect that with your later stage of Transcending Mortal Realm cultivation, you would possess such strong skills... It truly is surprising."

As the Moon Radiance Sect outer sect disciple led Wyatt Barnes towards the outer sect area, he couldn’t help but marvel.

Wyatt Barnes gave a slight smile and did not respond.

At this moment, he also didn’t know how to continue the conversation.

"What surprises me even more is that Elder Pierce Reid openly took you as his personal disciple... Junior Brother Barnes, you were right to politely refuse Elder Pierce Reid. With your talent and strength, as long as you make a name in the sect, even being taken as a personal disciple by an inner sect elder is not impossible."

The Moon Radiance Sect outer sect disciple walking ahead of Wyatt Barnes continued, "Elder Pierce Reid, as an outer sect elder, holds a position in the sect that is only slightly higher than an inner sect steward... he is still somewhat inferior compared to the inner sect elders."

"Do you think I refused Elder Pierce Reid because I want to be taken under the wing of an inner sect elder?"

Wyatt Barnes was astonished, not expecting his refusal of Elder Pierce Reid, in the eyes of the person before him, to appear as belittling Pierce Reid.

"Is that not the case?"

The outer sect disciple countered.

"Of course not!"

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, "I never planned to take an inner sect elder as a master."

"Junior Brother Barnes, your goals are indeed lofty... I hope you succeed."

The outer sect disciple exclaimed.

"A lofty goal?"

Wyatt Barnes was startled, "You even know my goal?"

"Of course!"

The Outer Sect disciple nodded, "Since your goal is not to become a disciple of an Inner Sect elder, it must be to seek discipleship under the Vice Sect Leader, Sect Leader, or even the Supreme Elder... However, Junior Brother Barnes, I need to remind you here. Without an exceptional talent, the Vice Sect Leader, Sect Leader, and Supreme Elder are unlikely to take you as a disciple."

"Even if you can defeat stronger opponents, it’s the same. They value long-term talent, not just strength displayed momentarily."

The Outer Sect disciple spoke patiently to Wyatt Barnes, appearing earnest and well-intentioned.

Wyatt Barnes was dumbfounded.

In this guy’s eyes, had he, Wyatt Barnes, become someone who just flatters and ingratiates himself?

For a moment, he could not be bothered to explain.

At times like this, the more you say, the worse it gets.

Following the Outer Sect disciple’s lead, Wyatt Barnes arrived at the Moon Radiance Sect’s Outer Sect area and collected the Moon Radiance Sect Outer Sect disciple’s identity token... As for clothing, there was no requirement to wear the uniform.

Wyatt Barnes had noticed this earlier.

Whether it was Pierce Reid, the Outer Sect elder of Moon Radiance Sect, the other two Outer Sect stewards or this Outer Sect disciple, they were all dressed in casual attire.

However, outside their casual attire, on their belts hung an eye-catching token, the identity token of the Moon Radiance Sect.

The identity token Wyatt Barnes received had the words ’Outer Sect Disciple’ on the front and his name newly engraved on the back.

"Junior Brother Barnes, let me take you to where our Outer Sect disciples live."

After calling out to Wyatt Barnes, the Outer Sect disciple led him to the residence of the Outer Sect disciples.

"Senior Brother Yang, I heard from my teacher... The residences of the Moon Radiance Sect’s Outer Sect disciples are also divided into ranks; the stronger the strength, the better the dwelling, the weaker the strength, the poorer the dwelling?"

On the way, Wyatt Barnes asked, "Is that true?"

Along the way, Wyatt Barnes had gotten to know the Outer Sect disciple quite well and even learned his name, Canny Yorke.

Canny Yorke joined Moon Radiance Sect five years ago.

This year he was forty-three years old, and his cultivation had already reached ’Transcending Mortal Realm Great Perfection’!

"That’s right."

Canny Yorke nodded, "Our Outer Sect disciples’ residences are divided into three levels... The best are the independent courtyards, which not only have quiet rooms for cultivation but also spacious courtyards for practicing Saint Realm martial arts."

"Next are the independent stone houses. The environment is much worse compared to the independent courtyards, and there are no places to practice Saint Realm martial arts... Those living in stone houses can only go to the Martial Arts Performance Field to practice Saint Realm martial arts."

"The worst are the independent wooden houses. The recently repaired ones are okay... some that have not been repaired for a long time, leak whenever it rains."

Canny Yorke explained the division of the residences for Outer Sect disciples to Wyatt Barnes in one breath.

"Independent courtyard!"

Wyatt Barnes’s eyes lit up, and he muttered under his breath, setting a new goal in his mind.

Although he would not worry about a place to practice Saint Realm martial arts even if he lived in a stone house that was slightly inferior to the independent courtyards... The Jewel Tower could provide him with a place.

However, having the best option, he naturally wanted the best.

"Junior Brother Barnes, you’re not setting your sights on an independent courtyard, are you?"

Canny Yorke, with sharp ears, heard Wyatt Barnes’s muttering and could not help but widen his eyes and ask.

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing that Canny Yorke seemed quite surprised, Wyatt Barnes asked.

"Of course, there’s a problem."

Canny Yorke gave a wry smile, "Junior Brother Barnes, do you know... Although I broke through to Transcending Mortal Realm Great Perfection half a year ago, up until now, I’m not a match for even the weakest person living in the independent courtyard."

The living quarters of the Moon Radiance Sect’s Outer Sect disciples can be occupied by force based on strength.

If you are stronger than him, you can replace him.

This rule is exactly the same as the rule in the City Lord’s Hidden Dragon Camp in Hill Mountain City: the strong live in good environments, the weak live in poor ones.

"Are independent courtyards few in number?"

Wyatt Barnes asked, not expecting that Canny Yorke, who had joined the Moon Radiance Sect five years ago and had reached Transcending Mortal Realm Great Perfection, hadn’t secured an independent courtyard.

"There are actually not too few, a total of one hundred."

Canny Yorke said.

"A hundred? That many?"

Wyatt Barnes was surprised, "With so many independent courtyards, you couldn’t snatch even one?"

"A hundred isn’t considered many."

Canny Yorke said with a wry smile, "Every five years, the Sect recruits over a hundred new Outer Sect disciples... After five years, if half of these Outer Sect disciples pass the Inner Sect evaluation and become ’Inner Sect Disciples,’ it is considered good."

"Among these Outer Sect disciples, many remain stuck at Transcending Mortal Realm Great Perfection for ten, fifteen, or twenty years due to various reasons... because they have not broken through to ’Entering the Saint Realm,’ they cannot pass the Inner Sect evaluation, so they remain in the Outer Sect to this date."

"Among these senior brothers and sisters in the Outer Sect, some are nearly a hundred years old."

Canny Yorke sighed.

"Nearly a hundred years old?"

It must be said, Wyatt Barnes was startled by Canny Yorke’s words.

"Yes."

Canny Yorke nodded, "The Sect has rules that after a hundred years of age, if one still can’t enter the Inner Sect, they must be expelled from the Sect... Of course, before a hundred years, there are also many Outer Sect disciples who know that entering the Inner Sect is hopeless and leave the Sect voluntarily."

"Even so, there are still quite a few older Outer Sect disciples who remain."
