After making up his mind, Lin Yi became more and more eager to return, and the speed of the spirit bird unconsciously increased little by little.
It was really scared by the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle just now. If it weren't for Lin Yi's powerful strength that killed the eagle, it and Lin Yi would be the food of the sea beast at the moment. After all, with the speed of the eagle, it could easily catch up with it, so the spirit bird's only thought at this time was to fly faster and faster. Only when it was so fast that all the flying spirit beasts couldn't catch up with it, then it would be really safe!
North Island, Three Pavilions.
Since the emergence of the newcomer king, Ma Daiqiang, especially after he stood out among the heroes in the inner door competition, the Three Pavilions had been talking about this time. Almost everyone was talking about this unprecedented newcomer in the Nascent Soul Stage.
Due to the emergence of Lin Yi and Ma Daiqiang, the two 'Newcomer Kings', even the Clear Cloud Pavilion that had always been on the decline suddenly regained its former glory, looking like a salted fish that had turned over a new leaf.
However, unexpectedly, the person in the limelight recently was not Ma Daiqiang of Blue Cloud Pavilion, but the young master of Soaring Sky Pavilion, Xu Lingchong, who had been silent for a long time.
Since the last time he disappeared, this Young Master Xu had changed from his usual arrogant and domineering attitude, becoming much more calm and reserved. This time, the reason why he became the focus of the conversation was not because he had done something eye-catching, but because he had succeeded in becoming the Eldest Senior Brother of the Outer Court Steward of Soaring Sky Pavilion.
Of course, this news itself was not very eye-catching, and it couldn't even be regarded as news. After all, Xu Lingchong had been competing for this position for a long time, and he had made various preparations for this. It could be said that everyone knew his intentions. However, this time it still caused a great sensation, because Xu Lingchong broke through to the master of the Nascent Soul Stage!
When Xu Lingchong first started to build momentum for this, his strength was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage! In less than a year, he actually crossed the entire Gold Core Stage and became a master of the Nascent Soul Stage. This kind of thing was simply shocking!
Young Master Xu's talent had been outstanding since he was young, and this had long been publicized to the world by those who were observant. But even so, it had never been boasted to such a shocking extent. Not to mention that others did not believe it, in fact, even Xu Yuanzheng, his own grandfather, felt dazed, and often could not help but wonder if he was dreaming.
From the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage to the Nascent Soul stage, if it was a cultivator with average talent, they might not be able to succeed even after spending a hundred years. Even those so-called elites would need at least eight to ten years. If someone said that he wanted to cross the entire Gold Core Stage within a year, he would definitely be regarded as a madman.
However, the iron-clad truth was right in front of them. Even if they didn't want to believe it, they had to believe it. After a moment of disbelief, they could only use one sentence to express their feelings: extraordinary people do extraordinary things. Young Master Xu was no ordinary genius, so there was nothing to be surprised about even if he didn't take the ordinary path …
With the strength of the Nascent Soul stage, even if Xu Lingchong's deep background was not taken into account, it was still a humbling position. There was nothing to be surprised about, but apart from Xu Lingchong's sudden advancement to the Nascent Soul stage, there was another thing that shocked everyone.
Ma Dangqiang, the Newcomer King of Blue Cloud Pavilion, who was also a Nascent Soul stage expert, was in front of Young Master Xu Lingchong. He actually considered himself as a little brother!
This scene was really shocking. Although Xu Lingchong was also a Nascent Soul stage expert, this Ma Dangqiang was not weaker than him in terms of strength. In fact, he was even in the limelight recently?
Speaking of status and position, Chen Xiaobei was not the only one. Ma Dangqiang was now the Second Senior Brother of Blue Cloud Pavilion's Inner Sect Steward. Even if Blue Cloud Pavilion was not as good as Soaring Sky Pavilion, the Second Senior Brother of Inner Sect Steward's position should be much stronger than the Eldest Senior Brother of Outer Sect Steward, right?!
After thinking about it, there was only one explanation. That was, Ma Dangqiang had taken a fancy to Young Master Xu's deep background. The other party had a grandfather who was a big shot in the Elder Council. This was the only place that Ma Dangqiang could climb up to.
However, this explanation was still very far-fetched. Don't forget that Ma Dangqiang was often compared to Lin Yi, and he himself seemed to attach great importance to it. Every single thing, even if it was a small matter, he was determined to not be inferior to Lin Yi. But Lin Yi had never lowered his head to Young Master Xu before. On the contrary, it was Young Master Xu who repeatedly met with a rebuff. Why was Ma Dangqiang now willing to be Young Master Xu's little brother?
If Ma Dangqiang only lowered his head to Xu Lingchong, even if the reason was a little far-fetched, everyone would feel that it was no big deal in the end. After all, everyone had their own ambitions. Back then, Lin Yi and Xu Lingchong didn't get along well. Maybe this Ma Dangqiang would hit it off with Young Master Xu. This wasn't impossible.
But the problem was that Ma Dangqiang not only bowed and groveled in front of Xu Lingchong, the Young Master of Soaring Sky Pavilion, but even in front of Meng Tong, Kang Ming Ming, and Zhong Pingliang, he had to flatter them from time to time. It seemed that he was clearly ranked at the bottom of the group. This was really incomprehensible.
No matter what, he was a Nascent Soul stage master. If it was said that in order to curry favor with Young Master Xu, he even had to flatter Meng Tong and the others. Wasn't that too much of a bootlicker? Wasn't that too lacking in the dignity of a master?
And what was unexpected was that Ma Dangqiang, who had always been very sensitive to the discussions in the streets, turned a deaf ear to everyone's one-sided negative comments this time. It gave people the feeling that he was prepared to go down the dark path and was determined to flatter Xu Lingchong and his group to the end.
On this day, Xu Lingchong's group had once again gathered together. The bystanders were already used to this kind of scene. These people would gather once every ten days. This group of people would mysteriously shut themselves up in a small house. No one knew what they were secretly discussing. In any case, everyone would keep their mouths shut when they came out of the small house. They would never announce to the bystanders what they were going to do, appearing to be unfathomable.
Walking out of Xu Lingchong's mansion, Ma Dangqiang nodded and groveled as he watched Kang Ming Ming and the others leave. Only then did he return to Blue Cloud Pavilion alone. Although he was not the only Blue Cloud Pavilion disciple in the group, Meng Tong had always been inseparable from Xu Lingchong. They ate and lived together. Naturally, he wouldn't go to Blue Cloud Pavilion if there wasn't anything important.
Returning to Blue Cloud Pavilion, Ma Dangqiang, who was previously bowing and groveling, immediately became arrogant. No matter who he met, he had a gloomy expression that made the group of Blue Cloud Pavilion disciples only dare to look at him from afar. Only when he was far away could they continue doing what they were supposed to do.
