Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Promoted to Tongxuan Within Two Years!
Steadying his posture, Luo Cheng felt his chest churn with blood and qi, his gaze icy cold as he stared at Qin Douyuan.
Although he couldnât understand why, it was clear that the other party was deliberately targeting him!
That condescending attitude, as if gazing at an ant crawling on the ground, made Luo Cheng furious.
Back then, Ji Yuanhao had the same look in his eyes!
âLin Hankong, escort him out!â
Qin Douyuan shouted coldly.
âYes!â
Lin Hankong and several Outer Disciples immediately stepped forward, intending to take Luo Cheng away.
âThis way, please!â
Fixing his gaze on Luo Cheng, Lin Hankongâs eyes gleamed with chilling light.
As soon as Luo Cheng left the Xuanyuan Sect, he planned to ask several senior brothers to completely eliminate him!
âWait!â
Luo Cheng called out firmly, stepping forward to face Qin Douyuan:
âThe overseer for this assessment is Elder Chen Xuan, correct? I broke the record and passed the Heart Refining Gorge with the highest ranking. Elder Chen Xuan has personally granted me direct passage through the test. Now, with just one word, youâre trying to make me leave? Is this how Xuanyuan Sect reneges on its promises?â
âTrash! You dare defy me!â
Qin Douyuanâs brow furrowed violently, his eyes blazing with anger as he ordered Lin Hankong and the others, âImmediately escort him out! If he resists, punish him severely!â
âQin Douyuan, wasnât I the one overseeing this assessment?â
The previously silent Elder Chen Xuan suddenly spoke up.
Qin Douyuan slightly furrowed his brows and said, âElder Chen, are you truly going to let a piece of trash enter Xuanyuan Sect?â
Elder Chen Xuan did not reply but instead approached Luo Cheng, examining his Martial Soul carefully.
Time ticked by as Elder Chen Xuanâs brows knotted tighter and tighter.
Seizing the moment, Lin Hankong chimed in, âElder Chen, thereâs no need to expend heart power. Back in Qishan City, Senior Brother Jin Min personally investigated; this man awakened nothing more than a Martial Soul without even One-star.â
âFurthermore, this Luo Cheng acts arrogantly and disrespectfully. He belittled Senior Brother Jin Min, and if not for Senior Brother Jin Minâs leniency, this trash would not even be alive today.â
With a veiled jab, Lin Hankong pointed out Luo Chengâs past offense toward Jin Min.
Qin Douyuan stepped forward as well, saying, âElder Chen, the rules of our Xuanyuan Sect dictate that even servant disciples must have awakened at least a Three-star Martial Soul.â
âLetting someone like Luo Cheng enter Xuanyuan Sect will bring us ridicule from Luoxia Sect and Fierce Cloud Sect. Theyâll laugh at us for accepting trash!â
Elder Chen Xuan remained silent.
He did not wish to renege on his promise, but Luo Chengâs innate talent was undeniably abysmal.
A Martial Soul without even One-starâforget the Three Great Sects, even minor sects would cast him out without hesitation.
Unable to bear it any longer, Tuoba Lie glared at Lin Hankong and the others:
âYou keep calling him trash, acting as though youâre so superior! Afraid of ridicule? Do you not fear ridicule for going back on your word?â
âThis isnât your place to speak!â
Qin Douyuanâs eyes widened in anger, unleashing a surge of Essence Energy toward Tuoba Lie.
Roar!
Tuoba Lie coldly snorted, crossing his arms before him. Accompanied by an earth-shaking tigerâs roar, a three-eyed giant tiger engulfed in crimson flames emerged behind him, with nine shining stars radiating brilliance.
âMy heavens! A Nine-star Martial Soul!â
An audible wave of gasps arose from the crowd.
A Nine-star Martial Soulâthe pinnacle among Advanced Martial Souls!
With a deafening boom, Tuoba Lie was blasted back more than ten meters, his beast-hide vest ripped to shreds.
Ripping off the remainder of the torn vest, Tuoba Lie glared angrily at Qin Douyuan.
âYou old coot, just waitâone day, Iâll beat you until you canât stand!â
Qin Douyuanâs brow furrowed, but he refrained from further action.
A genius awakened to a Nine-star Martial Soulâone in ten thousandâwould undoubtedly be heavily nurtured upon sect entry. He had no desire to provoke such a person.
Turning his gaze to Luo Cheng, Qin Douyuan sneered, âBoy, I advise you to leave on your ownâwhy stay here only to humiliate yourself?â
Luo Chengâs expression remained calm as he coldly retorted, âMy decision to stay or leave is none of your business!â
âInsolence! How dare you speak to Elder Qin that way!â
âElder Qin, thereâs no need to waste words; just break his hands and feet and throw him out!â
The Outer Disciples beside Lin Hankong glared furiously at Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng swept his gaze coldly over them, committing their faces to memory, then retrieved Yun Mengliâs Token and handed it to Elder Chen Xuan:
âElder Chen, take a look at this! The owner of this token once said that with it, I could directly enter Xuanyuan Sect!â
âThis is!â
Upon seeing the token, Elder Chen Xuanâs expression shifted slightly. Taking the token, he injected a thread of Essence Energy into it.
Whoosh!
A scorching aura engulfed the space, and the name Yun Mengli emerged from the token, exuding an overwhelming presence that was beyond desecration.
Seeing this, Qin Douyuanâs face changed as he interrogated Luo Cheng, âWhere did you get this token?â
With indifference, Luo Cheng replied, âThe tokenâs owner personally gave it to me.â
âLies! With her temperament, how could she possibly give you the token? Impossible!â
Qin Douyuan became agitated, unable to believe the claim.
After contemplating for a moment, Elder Chen Xuan returned the token to Luo Cheng and said:
âLuo Cheng, what do you think about thisâstart as a servant disciple of Xuanyuan Sect. Within two years, if you ascend to the Third Stage of Tongxuan Realm, Iâll permit you entry into the Outer Sect and accept you as my Direct Disciple.â
âFine.â
Luo Cheng nodded.
He understood that this was the best Elder Chen Xuan could offer.
As for advancing to the Third Stage of Tongxuan Realm within two years, Luo Cheng hardly considered it an obstacle.
If everything went smoothly, a few months would suffice!
Upon hearing this, Lin Hankong grew anxious. âElder Chen, if you go forward with this, how will you explain it to Senior Brother Jin Min?â
âImpudent!â
Elder Chen Xuanâs face darkened as a powerful aura directly sent Lin Hankong flying, causing him to spit out blood mid-air.
Glaring at Lin Hankong, Elder Chen Xuan said coldly, âDo I need to justify my actions to him? If you dare insult my authority again, Iâll use you as an example!â
Lin Hankong, stunned at Elder Chen Xuanâs uncharacteristic fury, paled and dared not utter another word.
Qin Douyuan frowned and said, âElder Chen, are you really going to break Xuanyuan Sectâs rules for him?â
Looking at Qin Douyuan, Elder Chen Xuan remarked indifferently:
âQin Douyuan, Iâm unsure of the grudge between you and Luo Cheng, but I urge you to restrain yourself.â
âDonât forget what day it is. Yun Mengli is challenging Yuan Qingying on Wind Rock Island. Should she succeed, sheâll rise among the Ten True Disciples and gain the power of absolute life and death. Not only could she grant Luo Cheng entry into Xuanyuan Sect, she could place him within the Inner Sect with but a single word.â
âHmph! Yuan Qingying is no pushover. Yun Mengli has only been a Core Disciple for a short while; her ambition to defeat Yuan Qingying is nothing short of delusional!â
Qin Douyuan scoffed, directing a cold stare at Luo Cheng, âThen let him serve two years as a laborer! Iâll wait and see how he manages to ascend to the Third Stage of Tongxuan Realm within that time!â
Even with a Three-star Martial Soul or Four-star Martial Soul, advancing within two years was extraordinarily challenging.
Qin Douyuan entirely dismissed the idea that someone with a Wasted Martial Soul could achieve such a feat within two years!
