The two Inner Sect stewards watched as Wyatt Barnes walked out of the third floor of the Hall of Merit, continuing upward to the fourth floor, his figure gradually vanishing from their view.
"Could he be the final disciple of one of the Inner Sect elders?"
One of the stewards murmured aloud.
For an Outer Sect disciple to possess such an incredible number of merit points, being the last disciple of an Inner Sect elder was the only plausible explanation.
The final disciple is regarded as the last pupil an elder accepts, after which they take no more apprentices.
Final disciples are typically showered with love and privilege, deeply valued by their mentors, who often spare no expense in nurturing them.
"Even if he were the final disciple of an Inner Sect elder, would it be feasible to spend so extravagantly? Seventy thousand merit points—not seven thousand—and he swiped them away without so much as blinking,"
The other steward remarked with a bitter smile.
