Just as Leon was interrogating the beggar, two tall men on the second floor of the restaurant opposite the pawn shop witnessed his feat of fighting four men by himself.
"This kid is really fierce in a fight," said one of the men, wearing a suit and glasses, as he leaned against the railing, watching Leon, who was currently collecting his spoils of war, with great interest. "And his bones are strong, his essence and spirit full… "
At this point, he slightly narrowed his eyes.
"Essence and spirit full" simply meant that the young man was a virgin. The man with glasses hadn't expected the young master below to still be a virgin at such an age.
"What a pity, he's just a bit too old."
The man, who possessed an ability called 'Divine Spirit', could naturally sense that the Qi within the other party's body was as unremarkable as that of an ordinary person.
However, the long-haired man with a defiant expression beside the man with glasses did not respond, but instead asked with a heavy heart, "How does Sect Leader plan to help me?"
Upon hearing this, the man with glasses restrained the smile on his face, then gestured with his chin towards two teenagers in gray training clothes walking from afar: "Those are the Zhang brothers, who have already confirmed their entry into the Trinity Sect…"
...
On the other side, Leon didn't know he had been discussed. He was currently counting his spoils of war.
It must be said, a beggar was a beggar. He only found a dozen copper coins after searching his entire body, barely enough to buy one steamed bun.
But fortunately, Leon had already obtained the information he needed.
"Trinity Sect…" He silently recited this somewhat familiar name, and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, "Under One Person?"
The Trinity Sect was a Xuanmen sect from the manga "Under One Person" that Leon had read before his transmigration. But if he remembered correctly, this sect had already been annihilated when the original plot began.
However, the original plot was set in modern times, while Leon was currently in the Republic of China era. Calculating the time, it did line up.
Leon was not particularly surprised about transmigrating into "Under One Person." After all, if transmigration itself could happen, then transmigrating into a manga he had read didn't seem like something worth being concerned about.
One could even say it made it more convenient for him to seek power.
"So, the major event I'm about to experience is the annihilation of the Trinity Sect?" Since he only learned this one name from the beggar, this thought naturally popped into Leon's mind. "Or is this Trinity Sect not that Trinity Sect?"
He did not jump to conclusions immediately, as he would know the exact situation once he went to see for himself.
Thinking of this, Leon did not linger. He immediately walked in the direction the beggar had pointed. It was at this moment that two teenagers in gray training clothes passed by him.
The Trinity Sect's mountain gate was not particularly far from the small town where Leon had arrived, and perhaps for this reason, he didn't encounter any bandits or brigands along the way.
Soon, a small courtyard nestled at the foot of the mountain appeared in Leon's line of sight.
Looking at the words "Trinity Sect" above the courtyard gate, he knew he had found the right place.
With a somewhat anxious heart, Leon stepped forward and knocked on the main gate. Soon after, a young man dressed in white Daoist robes opened the door.
The young man scrutinized Leon, who was somewhat dirty from the fight, and asked, "What is it?"
Upon hearing this, Leon made an awkward bow and said, "I have admired the Trinity Sect since childhood. I have come here, of course, to seek apprenticeship and the Dao."
After hearing this, the young man's expression immediately became strange. He then deliberated for a moment before saying, "Although our Trinity Sect does not care about a disciple's background when accepting students…"
"But your age is a bit too old."
This was a rather tactful way of putting it. Generally, orthodox Xuanmen sects would choose young children as disciples, and even if they were older, they would at most be teenagers in their teens. But this person in front of him…
To be frank, he was at least over twenty.
This clearly did not conform to the Trinity Sect's rules.
It wasn't that one couldn't seek the Dao if they were old, but rather that young children's minds were like blank slates, making it easier for various Xuanmen sects to imbue them with their own colors.
Furthermore, matters like foundation building were more suitable for younger ages, so they rarely accepted older disciples.
Thinking this, the young man shook his head slightly, dropped a sentence, and prepared to close the door: "I'm sorry, please seek another path."
Seeing this situation, Leon couldn't help but feel anxious. He really wanted to say, "Can't you be less strict about age? I'm also a blossoming youth!"
But he knew saying these things would be useless.
After briefly recalling the plot, Leon gritted his teeth and said to the young man, "Technique is technique, Dao is Dao. No matter how long a ball is topped, it can't become a head!"
"I hope Daoist Priest can convey these words to Zuo Menchang!"
After saying this, he took a step forward, took out the only silver dollar he had, and tried to slip it into the young man's hand.
The young man frowned, took a step back, and reprimanded, "What do you take the Xuanmen's pure land for?!"
Saying that, he was about to close the door.
But upon seeing Leon's urgent expression, the young man hesitated.
To be honest, he was also curious about what Leon had just said, feeling that it was information closely related to the Trinity Sect.
After a moment of silence, the young man sighed and said to Leon, "Very well, wait here. I will inform my master and then a decision will be made."
Having said that, he turned and quickly walked up the mountain.
Seeing this scene, Leon immediately felt relieved. He knew that no matter the outcome, he had at least taken the first step.
He certainly knew that this step was very bold, but to gain the power to protect himself, he could only take such a risk.
Leon also wanted to slowly inquire about the existence of those strange people in an orderly manner, and it wasn't strictly necessary for him to join the Trinity Sect.
But the problem was, who knew when this major event would end? He still remembered that the previous major event called [Zerg Nova] ended after only a few days.
Leon didn't want to just find some information and then suddenly be sent back again.
Moreover, considering the personality of Da Ying Xianren from the original work, he felt that he should not be in any danger… right?
Not long after, the young man from before returned, his expression hurried.
He looked at Leon in front of him, his face extremely complex, and couldn't help but purse his lips: "…Come with me, Master wants to see you."
Upon hearing this, Leon's heart filled with joy, and he quickly followed.
The true mountain gate of the Trinity Sect was at the peak, some distance from the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, with Leon's current physical fitness, this distance was nothing.
Soon, the young man led Leon to a side hall.
"Go in, Master is waiting for you."
Leon thanked him upon hearing this, then pushed the door open and walked in.
The next moment, a white-haired man with an ethereal demeanor entered his vision.
This person was none other than the Sect Leader of the Trinity Sect.
Da Ying Xianren, Zoro!
