Chapter 736

“This is a joke, right, sir? I-it isn’t proper to promote him to an elder when he just joined the group!

“He’s right, Dr. Watkins. This is the first time there’s been an exception like this. That’s not normal!

“Sir, we know you favor talented individuals, but I’m afraid others might be unhappy with your decision.”

The elders and many disciples of the Stoneray Order were upset when they heard that Linden would

promote Dustin to elder, which was only one rank below the assistant leader.

Disciples usually started as junior disciples before becoming intermediate disciples. Then, they would

be promoted to senior disciples. As senior disciples, if they made any major contributions, they would

be promoted to upper disciples.

Upper disciples were then categorized into three classes-upper third, upper second, and upper first.

Only upper first disciples had a chance of being promoted to elder.

Getting promoted to a higher rank took years, so for a junior disciple to climb the ranks and become an

elder would take at least a few decades. However, Dustin was now offered to take the top spot for free,

pissing many people off.

“You fools. His skills are more than worthy of becoming an elder!” Linden responded firmly.

Dustin had completed all three tests perfectly, which was something even Linden couldn’t be sure he

could do. That was why Linden desperately tried to recruit Dustin into the Stoneray Order.

“Sir, he might be skilled, but he doesn’t have enough experience yet. It’s fine if you take him in as an

upper disciple, but I think appointing him as an elder is going overboard,” a white-bearded elder

advised.

Stoneray Order has existed for centuries; there has never been such a young elder.

“Shut up! I said that it’s fine!” Linden shouted angrily, scaring the others into silence. After all, he was

the one with the ultimate power.

Linden turned his attention to Dustin and smiled. “So, what do you think? If you agree to join us, you

can become an elder and get the thousand-year green lotus. I also swear never to stop you from doing

what you want.”

“It’s an honor, sir. I accept your offer. Thank you.” Dustin smiled. At this point, only an idiot would turn

down such an attractive offer.

However, Dustin was more attracted by Linden’s position than anything else. His position was very

influential in the entire country. After all, no one would claim that they never fell sick.

No matter how powerful someone was, they would still look for Linden when they were sick. Therefore,

it was easy to see why Stoneray Order ranked first in terms of connections and influence. It was a once

in a life chance to receive an offer to become one of the Order’s elders.

“Great! We’ll start preparing a banquet to welcome our newest elder!” Linden ordered.

His disciple immediately got to work. Although they were unhappy with Linden’s decision, they didn’t

dare to voice it.

At noon, Dustin finally left with Abigail and Roderick holding the thousand-year green lotus and a

Stoneray Order Elder Emblem With that badge, all of the Order’s disciples had no choice but to obey

him.

“You were so cool today! You got the treasure and taught those two brats a lesson!” Abigail exclaimed

excitedly in the car. She watched the whole competition and was glad when Dustin beat those arrogant

“geniuses”.

“She’s right! They’re nothing compared to you!” Roderick praised.

“Enough with the praises. You guys should look behind us first,” Dustin answered cooly.

“Behind us?” Puzzled, Abigail and Roderick turned around. It turned out that several cars were

following them from about 400 feet away.
