Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

The golden crow rose in the east.

Misty Mountain.

Atop the mountain path, a majestic and enormous gate stood erect.

Carved into the gate in powerful dragon-and-phoenix calligraphy were three characters—Wayless Sect!

The Misty Mountain had never been home to any sect before.

Half a month ago, with a thunderclap on a clear day, the Wayless Sect was born, unknown and unrecognized by all.

It was a sect of no rank, no license, and no inhabitants.

On this day, beneath the mountain gate, two figures stood.

"Luo Er, this is the land of our sect, the Wayless Sect. Walking up from here will take you directly to the Sect Main Hall."

"You may go by yourself to get familiar with the different areas of the sect, then proceed to the palace in the rear mountain to choose one as your sleeping quarters."

The speaker seemed to be in his twenties, dressed in a snow-white robe, with long black hair and handsome features. His aura was ethereal and otherworldly, like an immortal wandering the mortal realm.

His name was Chu Yuan.

Sect Master of the Wayless Sect.

As he spoke,

The other figure began to speak.

"I shall follow the Respected Master's orders!"

This person appeared to be about the same age as Chu Yuan, with eyebrows like sharp swords and stars for eyes, dressed in an azure crane cloud robe, holding a long sword, and his face showed no emotion, exuding a sense of proud solitude.

His name was Ye Luo.

He was a disciple Chu Yuan had just recently taken under his wing.

And he was the only disciple of the Wayless Sect.

The First Senior Brother of the Wayless Sect!

Chu Yuan glanced at his disciple, waved his hand, and lightly opened his lips to utter two words.

"Go ahead."

Ye Luo bowed respectfully and said, "Respected Master, then your disciple will take his leave first and come back later to greet you."

After speaking, he walked towards the mountain, sword in hand.

Chu Yuan watched Ye Luo's departing figure, the casual indifference on his face instantly vanished, replaced by delight.

"Half a month has passed, and finally, I have found someone with such low aptitude that it seems limitless. This is too difficult."

He muttered to himself.

Scenes flashed through his mind again.

Chu Yuan was not originally from this world; half a month ago, due to an accident, he had crossed over to this world.

This world was not governed by the mundane.

Rather, it was a world filled with gods, demons, specters, and countless nations, where sects sprawled across and the strong reigned supreme.

It was known as the Divinity Continent.

Like the vast majority of transmigrants, Chu Yuan also possessed a system.

Only...

His system was somewhat peculiar.

In his mind, Chu Yuan silently called out to the system.

A screen of brilliant blue, visible only to him, quickly materialized.

[Most Useless Sect System in History]

[This system is committed to creating the most useless sect in history. The host is encouraged to recruit disciples and turn them worthless to achieve system goals]

[Note: Teaching a worthless disciple will reward the host with a promotion of one minor realm. Successful teaching of a disciple will deduct one major realm from the host. Please do not mislead yourself.]

Chu Yuan automatically ignored this portion.

He continued to look down.

[Personal Panel]

[Host: Chu Yuan]

[Sect: Wayless Sect]

[Cultivation Levels: Nascent Soul Stage (Early Stage)]

[Current Disciples: 1]

[Note: The division of cultivation realms goes as follows, Qi Refinement Stage, Foundation Establishment Realm, Golden Core Realm, Nascent Soul Realm, Divinity Transformation Realm, Tribulation Transcending Stage]

[Note: The Sect will be evaluated once a year to determine whether the host has trained a worthless disciple or a successful one. All interpretative rights belong to the System.]

This was Chu Yuan's peculiar system.

As long as he failed once in teaching a disciple, he would gain a small increment in his cultivation realm.

That is to say, if he failed three disciples, he would rise one major realm.

Although the system was a bit odd, for Chu Yuan, it was very fitting!

If Chu Yuan had to genuinely teach a disciple to succeed, that would be the real challenge for him.

Both his cultivation level and the Sect had been gifts from the System; he had never properly cultivated in the ways of immortality. What knowledge could he use to teach a disciple?

Was he supposed to use the cultivation methods from web novels in his previous life?

That must be a joke.

Therefore, Chu Yuan felt it was more appropriate to intentionally ruin disciples. At least, by doing something natural to him, he could get the job done.

He wasn't going to teach disciples anyway.

Half a month ago, Chu Yuan crossed over to this world and upon receiving the System, went down the mountain in search of a disciple.

After half a month of searching, he finally found Ye Luo, a person with exceptionally poor aptitude, and took him in as a disciple.

In this world, one's aptitude for cultivating immortality entirely depended on their Spirit Root, which everyone possessed.

A strong Spirit Root signified better cultivation aptitude and a broader future. Spirit Roots like the Heaven and Earth Spirit Root, the Five Elements Spirit Root, and Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning were all considered powerful.

On the other hand, a weak Spirit Root naturally suggested weaker talent. The most common and weakest kind was the Mortal Spirit Root, which every ordinary person had.

But the disciple Chu Yuan took, Ye Luo, was different!

He had no Spirit Root!

He didn't even possess the Mortal Spirit Root that ordinary mortals had.

Born without a Spirit Root, he couldn't absorb Spiritual Energy, meaning he couldn't cultivate immortality.

Chu Yuan couldn't help but laugh for a long while after taking in such a disciple.

He didn't need to ruin him; the guy was already a lost cause. Just drag it out for a year, and he would succeed.

"However, I do need to trick him a bit to keep the disciple's mind stable," Chu Yuan pondered, stroking his chin.

He had been successful in recruiting this disciple by showcasing his strength and by claiming the capability to cure the disciple's inability to cultivate.

That was how he managed to recruit such a useless disciple to his sect.

If the disciple discovered that he couldn't solve the misery of being unable to cultivate and ran away, Chu Yuan would have nowhere to cry.

As for forcibly detaining the disciple on the mountain?

He had thought about it before, but the System strictly prohibited such actions, which would be considered cheating.

So, he could only come up with a way to keep the disciple on the mountain for a year.

As long as he could keep the disciple for a year, after the Sect's evaluation, the disciple could do whatever he wanted to.

"Let me think about how to keep this disciple in the Sect. Anyway, I just need to drag it out for a year."

"Hmm, just make up some stuff and let the disciple comprehend it on his own. If he can't, it's not my fault that he lacks insight. After all, I'm a Nascent Soul Expert, my fist is bigger, and what I say makes sense!"

Chu Yuan nodded to himself, confirming the plan.

No matter what he said, he was, after all, a mighty Nascent Soul Expert.

To this disciple, who had never experienced true cultivation, Chu Yuan was an elder. What grounds did the disciple have to disagree with him?

Would he use his lack of a Spirit Root and an inability to cultivate as an argument?

Ridiculous.

In short, just bluff through it, and it's all done.

If the stuff he made up could actually help a disciple succeed, then he'd be able to swallow the Sect whole right then and there!

Chu Yuan looked up at the towering Sect gates, amused, and shook his head.

Clouds formed under his feet as he turned into a breeze and headed up the mountain.
