The term "True Disciple" refers to those talented Martial Artists whom their masters believe possess at least the potential to reach the Divine Treasury, a likely chance to achieve Greater Heavenly Manifestation, and the capacity to inherit the Great Dao and extend the glory of the sect.
According to An Jing's classification, the rank of "True Disciple" in a major sect is quite extraordinary. It starts at the level of a third-tier city martial artist, or even a provincial capital level, while the pinnacle is represented by his own master, Ming Guangchen—a cosmopolitan, world-class, capital-level martial artist. In a place like Huaixu, a capital-level martial artist is known as a "Heavenly Pride." This generally refers to a super-genius seed who can not only achieve Greater Heavenly Manifestation but also has the potential for Dao Palace Pure Yang.
Ming Guangchen was not originally considered a standard Heavenly Pride, as he had concealed his true strength as a "Far-Reaching Heaven Traveler." However, when besieged by True Disciples from various sects, including those of the Shangxuan Sect, he revealed his true mettle. Fighting against multiple opponents, killing them all, and then breaking through to Greater Heavenly Manifestation… Ming Guangchen’s actions not only shocked the martial artists of the Northern Frontier but also captured the interest of major sects across the Beixuan Sacrificial Continent and even the ten continents of Huaixu.
