Darkness was the first to react, "What!? An Irregular? How… is that possible?"
His usually composed tone faltered as he stared deeply at Yu Xuan.
Irregulars were not just rare — they were legendary. Ultra-rare beings, perhaps only a handful appearing in generations.
The atmosphere in the room shifted.
All eyes turned toward the glowing golden medallion in Yu Xuan's hand. No one spoke, but the change in their expressions was evident.
Curiosity had turned into something else — caution, and even disbelief.
Everyone present knew what that medallion signified.
They knew what it meant to be an Irregular — a title not given lightly. More importantly, they understood the true history of the Heaven Immortal Sect… and of the artifact spirit, Tianling, who personally oversaw these rare selections.
Elder Kun, still standing off to the side, finally broke the silence.
"Yes, he's an Irregular," he said with a calm smile. "Now do you all understand why I was laughing earlier?"
