"Senior brother!"
"Senior brother is back!"
Along the way, disciples of the Qiyun Sect greeted Ning Hesheng with considerable respect, showing that Ning Hesheng held quite a high position in the sect.
"What is your status in the sect?"
Ning Hesheng replied, "In the sect, the three Saints naturally hold the highest status. Besides them, there are the Deacons and Elders, and then below them are the disciples without positions. The disciples' status is based on strength, and excluding a few, all other disciples are below me."
Lin Chen asked, "Didn't you just say you're the strongest among the Sub-Saints? If strength is the basis, why are there still a few exceptions?"
Ning Hesheng's expression became rather subtle; after a few seconds of silence, he spoke, "In terms of strength, I indeed rank first, but I have no background. That's why I was sent for this trial."
