The Spiritual Array Sect and Raging Flame Sect didn’t manage to act cool during their visit this time. Instead, they ended up getting f**ked.
If they continued to stay here, apart from getting embarrassed, they would continue to be embarrassed. Thus, they would leave resentfully after exchanging a few words of greetings.
The arrival of the fee sects was merely a small interlude for the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The competition still had to continue.
Although Huangfu Longdou didn’t have the qualifications to advance on the surface.
In everyone’s hearts, they had already tacitly acknowledged his ability.
…
“Second round, 12th match, Huangfu Longdou vs Zhang San.”
The disciple called Zhang San trembled below the stage. He didn’t even have the courage to look at Huangfu Longdou. He raised his hand to announce that he forfeited.
He wasn’t the only one.
All the disciples who drew the draw to fight Huangfu Longdou voluntarily forfeited.
What a joke. Huangfu Longdou easily defeated one of the most outstanding disciples of the other three sects.
Who would dare to fight such a monster?
Ten lives weren’t enough to pay for it!
Thus, because of this, Huangfu Longdou’s advancement was almost certain.
But, this was also good for Huangfu Longdou.
He didn’t like to participate in this kind of competition.
To be able to complete the original body’s obsession easily in this way was the best.
As for the competition’s reward, he didn’t care about it at all.
What was the use of this sword or that dan?
Can’t you see that I’m already bald?
This is already a symbol of power.
With the system, Huangfu Longdou only needed to do some simple exercises every day to become stronger.
Hence, naturally, he wouldn’t be interested in those external things.
…
“Brother Huangfu, thank you so much for what you did just now.”
Hearing someone calling him from behind, Huangfu Longdou turned around and to take a look.
It turned out to be Man Jiankuang, who lost to Li Mu just now.
Actually, Man JianKuang was still more than a meter away from Huangfu Longdou.
However, Huangfu Longdou could see him at a glance because there was no one else around him other than Man Jiankuang.
The other disciples consciously kept their distance from Huangfu Longdou.
It was not only because Huangfu Longdou had helped the Heavenly Sword Sect regain its reputation.
It was also because of Huangfu Longdou’s power.
In this world, power was the only standard.
A stronger ability was the absolute truth!
Most of the disciples were filled with respect for Huangfu Longdou.
But this kind of admiration made them keep a distance subconsciously.
It was human nature
…
Seeing that the person was Man Jiankuang, Huangfu Longdou nodded slightly and said calmly.
“There’s no need to thank me. It’s not a big deal.”
He sounded as if he did not care about the fact that he had defeated three people in a row. It was as if he was talking about something as small as breathing and drinking water.
This made Man Jiankuang respect Huangfu Longdou even more. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
“My name Is Man Jiankuang. I’ve always liked to make friends with passionate people.
“This time, you’ve taught that brat, Li Mu, a lesson. It’s really satisfying!”
“It feels awesome!”
Man Jiankuang gave a satisfied expression on his face as if he was the one who defeated Li Mu.
Then, he changed the topic and said, “Speaking of which, I’m ashamed.”
“It’s been quite some time since I joined the Heavenly Sword Sect but I didn’t know that there was someone like you in the Heavenly Sword sect until today.”
“I really regret meeting you so late!”
Huangfu Long said to himself secretly, “I was just an unknown person in the past. It would be strange if you knew about me.”
But, he still smiled and said politely.
“Senior Brother Man must be joking. I am not someone who likes to be high-profile. In addition, I don’t have much talent so it’s normal that Senior Brother Man doesn’t know me.”
Hearing this, the disciples around him felt a little awkward.
You call this not much talent?
You call this not liking to be high-profile?
Even ghosts wouldn’t believe what you just said!
Of course, they were just cursing in his heart. They didn’t dare to say it out loud.
After all, they knew Huangfu Longdou’s ability and he was probably just being modest with his words.
Man Jiankuang’s expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he said with a hint of respect,
“Brother Huangfu’s ability is already so high and yet, you’re still so modest.”
“As what the sect master said, the stronger the person, the weaker he feels.”
“Brother Huangfu, you’re not only strong, but you’re so humble. I, Man Jiankuang, sdmire you!”
After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Huangfu Longdou in front of everyone.
Seeing Man Jiankuang’s actions, Huangfu Longdou’s eyes twitched.
Please don’t think too much about my actions, okay?
When did I say that I feel weak!
Huangfu Longdou couldn’t be bothered to explain, so he could only accept it gladly.
At this moment, a wave of cheers came from the surroundings once again, drawing Huangfu Longdou and Man Jiankuang’s attention over.
…
“Round four, match 20, Lan Yun ‘er wins!”
“All the in-name disciple preliminaries have been completed. The names of the ten disciples who will advance have been confirmed!”
Following that, the host elder announced the names of the ten disciples who would advance one by one.
Huangfu Long was one of them.
Man Jiankuang was injured in the fight with Li Mu so he didn’t qualify.
For this reason, many people felt sorry for Man Jiankuang.
However, Man Jiankuang didn’t take this matter to heart. He leaned slightly toward Huangfu Long and whispered.
“I’ve heard of the Lan Yun ‘er on the stage. She seems to be Zhang Tianfeng’s direct disciple. Her strength is unfathomable!”
Zhang Tianfeng was an inner elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Although they were both elders, Zhang Tianfeng was much stronger than Wang Zhan.
The gap between the inner and outer sects was huge.
Man Jiankuang reminded Huangfu Longdou with good intentions. He wanted him to be more cautious.
However, Huangfu Longdou only nodded slightly as if he didn’t care about Lan Yun ‘er at all.
Suddenly, Man Jiankuang’s admiration for Huangfu Longdou grew even more.
As expected of a master. He actually looked down on the inner sect elder’s direct disciple.
As expected, I still have a long way to go!
…
Huangfu Longdou didn’t know what man Jiankuang was thinking.
His current thoughts were actually very simple.
Can we hurry up and finish the competition?
Right now, I only want to hurry up and win the championship and complete my original body’s obsession.
Then I can go back to Thinking Cliff and waste time in peace.
I’m very busy, okay?
However, things always developed in the direction that people didn’t want.
“Today’s competition is over. The competition for the advanced disciples will be held tomorrow!”
Hearing this announcement, the disciples were in an uproar.
It was obvious that no one had seen enough of this wonderful competition.
They were in high spirits now but you said that you were done for today?
Of course, the decision of the Heavenly Sword Sect would not be changed by the dissatisfaction of these disciples.
Everyone could only disperse and return to their own places.
Huangfu Longdou was also preparing to return to Thinking Cliff to rest. However, the elder who had just presided over came to his side and said softly.
“Huangfu Longdou, the sect master and a few elders want you to find them.”
Looking at the elder’s complicated expression, Huangfu Longdou felt a little puzzled.
I just help the Heavenly Sword Sect gain some face. Why do you look as though your father has died?
However, Huangfu Longdou didn’t ask any further. He only nodded slightly and followed the elder to the Heavenly Sword Sect’s inner hall.
…
In the hall, the various upper echelons of the Heavenly Sword Sect were all sitting upright as though they were waiting for Huangfu Longdou’s arrival.
This made the doubts in Huangfu Longdou’s heart grew even more intense.
The upper echelons must have called him here to reward him.
However, why did the atmosphere feel a little off?
Huangfu Longdou subconsciously shifted his gaze to Chen Xuanfeng. But, he saw a hint of helplessness on Chen Xuanfeng’s face.
Just as he was about to ask a question, Wang Zhan, who was seated on a seat at the side, took the initiative to speak.
“Sinned disciple Huangfu Longdou, do you know your crime?”
