Summit Farmer-Chapter 2270 - 2268: The Situation of the Harrison Clan

Adrian Corbett is clearly someone who wants to maintain a good relationship with Peter Brown. When he patted the storage bag, he actually took out tables and chairs, and even brought out a pot of tea, some preserved fruits, and other items.

"Brother Wang, let’s sit down and chat slowly. We still have a few days before reaching the sect, no rush."

Peter Brown had already noticed similar situations. Some young people dressed in brocade clothing were being invited to sit and drink wine and chat, and the sect’s stewards did not object.

"Everyone is so casual, and the stewards don’t interfere?" Peter Brown was somewhat astonished.

Adrian Corbett chuckled and said, "The descendants of our families within the sect all have some backing, and some have very strong backing. After all, for so many years, quite a few family members have entered the sect, and the stewards won’t offend us over such trivial matters."

So that’s how it is!

Peter Brown understood that all the authority was merely borrowed from the power of the sect by the stewards. They could not be influenced when handling matters, and now with the business done, it’s naturally time to relax.

Thinking of this, Peter Brown became somewhat cautious regarding the Harrison clan, and thought that he should learn about the Harrison clan’s strength from Adrian Corbett, otherwise it could be dangerous for him.

After the two sat down, Adrian Corbett asked, "I didn’t expect Brother Wang to be so strong. From which family did Brother Wang come from?"

"I’m from the First Heaven, coming from the First Heaven."

Peter Brown now knew that such matters were not things to hide. Even within the Second Heaven, in this mining cavern, there were many who came from the First Heaven.

Indeed, Adrian Corbett was not surprised, nodding slightly, said, "There are quite a few strong persons from the First Heaven who have entered the Second Heaven. I didn’t expect Brother Wang to be one of those ascending from the First Heaven; you must have been very formidable in the Lower Realm."

"I was captured and thrown into the mining cavern by the Harrison clan after I wiped out a race within the First Heaven."

When saying these words, Peter Brown looked at Adrian Corbett.

Adrian Corbett was initially stunned, then calmly said, "Races within the First Heaven are wiped out regularly. The First Heaven is vast, with too many races. Various families in the Second Heaven have branches of races from the First Heaven. Some races, for family development, would transform a star planet within the First Heaven to cultivate a bloodline. You probably wiped out one of the Harrison clan’s modified star planets or worlds."

Seeing his nonchalant demeanor, even Peter Brown was taken aback, realizing that Adrian Corbett seemingly didn’t care about such matters.

"Are such things common in the Second Heaven?"

Adrian Corbett nodded slightly, said, "The energy in the Second Heaven is exceedingly strong. However, procreation is rather hard. If relying on Second Heaven’s families alone, many families face issues in inheritance. But in the First Heaven, reproduction is easier, so families with some power in Second Heaven would occupy star planets in the First Heaven, seizing worlds to nurture new blood, allowing their families to constantly obtain fresh blood."

"What exactly is the situation with the Harrison clan?"

Having figured out this matter, what Peter Brown was most concerned about was the Harrison clan’s strength.

Adrian Corbett shrugged, said, "Don’t worry about the Harrison clan. They’re just a newly emerged family with some power. They have an inner sect disciple whose cultivation is said to be pretty good, and before they had an elite disciple. Their family developed during that elite disciple’s time, and expanded to the First Heaven with the help of that elite disciple. Unfortunately, that elite disciple eventually died outside. The family was on the verge of collapse but then another inner sect disciple emerged. Everyone regards it as a facade due to that elite disciple’s connections, and with several acquaintances of that elite disciple looking out for them, they managed to barely maintain. It’s not a very substantial power."

"No, I feel like they think the inner sect disciple is quite awesome."

Adrian Corbett laughed, said, "You’ve participated in the competition now and become an inner sect disciple. Do you think inner sect disciples in the sect are powerful?"

Right!

If not reminded by Adrian Corbett, Peter Brown indeed overlooked this matter. Thinking now, surely a number from families would enter as inner sect disciples; the Harrison clan should have been able to send disciples through the years, right?

Seeing Peter Brown’s puzzled expression, Adrian Corbett smiled, said, "Entering the sect is actually easy. Even someone like me is considered a formal disciple. Though formally I’m a preparatory disciple, entry doesn’t equate to having power. After entering, it depends on how well one develops. Without development, the ending is sorrowful."

Saying this, Adrian Corbett showed a hint of concern on his face for the first time.

Sipping some tea, Adrian Corbett continued, "Through various selections, the sect maintains a large number of disciples entering, but entering doesn’t mean keeping the status forever. The status is dynamic, assessed once a year. If you don’t achieve a certain rank, you’ll be eliminated. This elimination doesn’t mean being expelled, but demotion by a rank, like if you enter as an inner sect disciple, failing to reach a new disciple’s top ranks within a year, you’ll be relegated one tier, becoming an outer sect disciple. After becoming an outer sect disciple, you’ll compete with others who entered simultaneously. Failing to rank, you’ll be demoted again, becoming an official disciple like me, eventually falling to the chore disciples. If you don’t wish to remain as a chore disciple, you can apply to leave the sect, and the sect will even provide travel expenses."

So that’s how it is!

Peter Brown was secretly amazed by the Great Void Sect’s approach. This way, competition naturally becomes very fierce, with intense struggles.

Adrian Corbett spoke again, "Understand now? Even after investing to send someone in, a family must uphold it. The Harrison clan’s descendant manages to keep ranking; you don’t need to worry much. In the First Heaven someone appearing very powerful, upon reaching the Second, is nothing!"

The Harrison clan turned out to be such a situation, clearly without outstanding power in the Second Heaven. Thinking of the Human Clan, Peter Brown could only sigh inwardly. Compared to the Harrison clan’s power, the Human Clan is even more lacking; it’s uncertain how those seniors in the Human Clan are faring now.
