"Wen Mo is the only disciple of the Sword Peak Peak Master. Since Yun Shuo is from the Yun family's main branch and also won first place in the last grand competition, outperforming Wen Mo, neither of them has established who the true First Disciple of this generation's Sword Peak is. It's going to be very difficult for Wen Mo to become the next Peak Master in the future."
"Why do you think that Yun Shuo went out of his way to send Wen Mo's natal sword into the barrier? It was simply because his own sword cracked and he was afraid of being overshadowed by Wen Mo, so he deliberately found a way to shatter Wen Mo's as well. I heard Wen Mo suffered a severe backlash at the time. If it weren't for the abundance of spirit herbs in the secret realm, his cultivation level would have nearly regressed."
"I heard that too. Wen Mo and Yun Shuo are definitely at odds. I heard that when they were fighting over the ninth-tier spirit herb, Wen Mo just walked away and refused to cooperate with Yun Shuo at all. Otherwise, with the two of them—the first and third place winners of the Golden Core Stage in the grand competition—who could possibly stand against their combined strength? Taking two ninth-tier spirit herbs would have been as easy as reaching out and grabbing them. Unlike now, when they dragged it out until the very end and only managed to snatch one."
