Terpsichore of Earth and Sky
As Mo Xie and the two made their way out, Bu Ten announced: "The third and final exam will continue tomorrow."
"All disciples to return to their quarters and prepare!"
"Yes!" The disciples immediately acknowledged and made their way out.
"Other than the twenty-four elders, I ask the other elders to go about your day as well."
"As the sect master commands." The elders made their way out as well.
Shu Wong couldn't help but sigh. Truly, he didn't expect Mo Xie to produce such unbelievable results.
Immediately, as the elders and disciples are nowhere to be seen, Bu Ten and the other elders couldn't hold it any longer as all six of them vomited a mouthful of blood.
But other than that, they were full of smiles.
"Elders!"
"Sect master!" The other elders exclaimed as they went to help them.
Bu Ten chuckled: "Nothing much, to think that I'd be caught off guard, the doll actually noticed how it won't be able to beat us, hence, immediately executed their strongest technique!"
"To actually use their strongest technique in a single move, I can only applaud it."
But the 1st elder spoke: "But sect master, did you notice?"
Bu Ten nodded his head: "Yes, they only used 10% of their full power."
As he spoke, he looked at the two dolls laying down lifelessly and without cultivation on the ground. The same as before Mo Xie used it, only, not useable any more for the future... permanently.
He sighed deeply: "It would definitely be a massive injury I wouldn't be able to recover in a few years... even dozens..."
The 1st and 2nd elder nodded their head: "Right."
Bu Ten smiled: "And we managed to get those techniques for mere 1,500 elder contribution points, who do you need to thank for?"
The elders smiled: "Of course, the sect master is really great."
"To have the foresight that none of us have, truly, the sect master is great."
They started talking for a while, but Bu Ten couldn't remove the thought that Mo Xie is really mysterious. For some reason, he felt that Mo Xie can do a lot more things.
Just for his action of giving the two arts for almost free, if it was him, he'd definitely treat it as a treasure. To be able to produce a celestial phenomenon ranked doll in just ten years?
Then, if he's to teach a hundred students per year, he'll be able to create so many master class celestial phenomenon experts!
Although the elders forgot about it already due to being happy for getting two great techniques, Bu Ten had not.
'If he's a friend, then, he'll be a great aid to the Empire, but if he's an enemy... then, the Empire is already doomed.'
And just as his thought reach here, he couldn't help but shiver: 'What this are only useless arts for him? And the ones he has can actually produce Divine ranked experts?'
Bu Ten's mind started to run wild, but after a while, he shook his head: "Everyone, I will be visiting the Tu Clan for now, inform the grand elder about the event here for me."
The 1st elder nodded his head: "As the sect master wishes."
Meanwhile.
Compared to the outer court of the Imperial Sky Sect that has about a hundred thousand disciples, the inner court only has around ten thousand disciples, hence, but the resources within the sect are divided 30% for the outer court disciple, 30% for the inner court, 30% for the sect and 10% for rewards.
Mo Xie made his way back with Shang Ting and Tanya to the Ouyang Clan.
He told Ouyang Tou that he'll be moving out, but he'll definitely be visiting once the siblings wake up.
As soon as Mo Xie and his followers left, Ouyang Tou fell into deep thought: "Yes, our Ouyang Clan really has nothing to offer such people, we've really fallen far."
"The clan will only be a liability..."
But as he spoke of this, Mo Xie came back: "Patriarch Tou, what're your clan's greatest assets?"
Ouyang Tou didn't know what's up, but he answered: "We own the mountains at the Azure Peak which harvest ores, it's mostly used for smithing weapons."
"We also own the Frosted Forest, we harvest yin type herbs over there."
"But for the past few years, there wasn't much trade, hence, we have stock on it so much that our storage is filled, we also stopped gathering resources and would only do so once in a while to clear the mines and the forest."
Mo Xie smiled: "Thanks, I'll be back later."
Mo Xie strode out of the Ouyang Clan and headed towards the Imperial Sky Sect, the only addition to his part is Nantian and Purple Sun Monarch.
Yan Meng and Fei Lin are still at the alchemy association. Since they've not returned yet, Mo Xie has no intention of calling them over.
Since they already have their basics completed, he'll let them have some free time.
This time, Mo Xie came back to the Imperial Sky Sect, but he wore the elder robe that was given to him by one of the assistant elders.
A white robe with blue and gold lining, on his left chest, a token is placed: 'Grand Guest Token: Elder'.
Guest elders have levels too.
Lowest level: Guest Elder
Middle level: Inner Guest Elder
High level: Grand Guest Elder
For the grand guest elder, his authority is as high as the 24 elders of the inner court and only below the Grand elder and the sect master himself.
Seeing him arrive, all of the sect's disciples made way as they bowed: "Elder!" All of them cupped their fist respectfully.
Mo Xie nodded his head: "At ease, return to your work."
"Yes!"
Mo Xie feels quite good about it, after all, for a person that had been so lonely for so long, they wouldn't be happy?
As they entered the sect, the disciples couldn't help but start chattering.
"Who is that?"
"I don't know, but he's an elder, if he's teaching students, sign me in!"
"Woah, I didn't know we had such a handsome elder."
"Oh god, I'm in love!"
"Wake up cyst, look at the two beauties following him, and look at yourself."
"Love is blind!"
"Yeah, if they fall in love with you that is!"1
"I don't know what's happening, but I'm going to try to learn from him!"
"Yeah, who wouldn't want to learn from such a handsome elder."
"Should we call him elder?"
"Yeah, he's so young looking to be called an elder."
Mo Xie made his way to the grand hall, but Bu Ten wasn't there.
The second elder greeted him: "Oh, Elder Mo, you're back."
Mo Xie smiled and greeted back: "Second elder."
"Sect Master tasked me in bringing you to your own hall."
Mo Xie smiled, he nodded his head: "Then, I'll have to trouble you, second elder."
The second elder smiled as he waved his hand: "No trouble, no trouble at all."
The second elder led them to their location.
After half an hour of walking, they arrived.
Mo Xie couldn't help but be awed at the generosity.
The second elder smiled: "Truth be told, even my own school isn't as big as yours, but the Grand Elder said that it's quite worth it to give you this since you're giving us two arts."
Mo Xie smiled: "Then, help me thank the grand elder."
The second elder chuckled: "You can thank him yourself, you'll definitely see each other sooner or later.
"Well, I'll be going then."
Mo Xie nodded his head: "Again, thank you, second elder."
The second elder smiled and nodded his head and waved his hand.
Mo Xie sighed, he looked at the courtyard and shook his head, it's a kilometer long and wide, a quarter of it, the middle part is the courtyard of the elder, the surrounding is also filled with housing for the disciples and a few facilities for the servants.
A domineering sign is hanged at the front gate.

Mo Xie: "I guess I can't slack off now that I've been given such treatment."
