The "private spar" with Shi Potian at the back mountain marked the end of Lin Changsheng's life in the Outer Sect and the pinnacle of his legend.
This battle firmly established his invisible status as the "Number One of the Outer Sect," a title he had no desire for.
The next day, as the first rays of morning sunlight streamed into the small courtyard, the sect's appointment document and an Inner Sect deacon appeared punctually at Lin Changsheng's door.
"Junior Brother Lin, congratulations on your promotion to the Inner Sect. Please follow me to complete the entry procedures and take you to your new residence."
