After acknowledging Xiao Chen's extraordinary talent, Cang Long did not say anything else. He naturally could not target Xiao Chen.
After taking a deep look at Xiao Chen, Cang Long did not say anything else. Cang Yun smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, although first senior brother has already announced that you will be his last disciple, there are still many tests waiting for you if you want to succeed."
While speaking, Cang Yun calmly swept a glance over the numerous disciples below. For Xiao Chen's apprenticeship ceremony, not only were there outer sect disciples, but there were also many inner sect disciples gathered here. Moreover, the gazes that were looking at Xiao Chen were also extremely unfriendly.
Xiao Chen understood the meaning of Cang Yun's words. Ever since the news of him becoming Cang Xuan's disciple had spread, many disciples felt that he was not qualified to become Cang Xuan's disciple. The best way to shut their mouths was naturally to display talent and strength that could convince them wholeheartedly, and prove that Cang Xuan was not wrong.
Without saying anything else, Xiao Chen bowed to Cang Xuan and the other two before taking the initiative to walk down the high platform. Arriving in front of the crowd, Xiao Chen swept a glance over the nearly ten thousand Sword Pavilion disciples before speaking in an indifferent voice.
"I know that all of you are unconvinced, and I also know that all of you are jealous of me. How about this, I will give all of you a chance today. If you are unconvinced, step forward. As long as your cultivation is suppressed to the same level as mine, whether it is an outer sect disciple, inner sect disciple, or core disciple, you can challenge me. As long as I lose, today's apprenticeship ceremony will be annulled.
What do you think? "Xiao Chen's words naturally caused an uproar. For a time, many angry voices rang out one after another.
"Xiao Chen, you really think you are someone important. You have just entered the outer sect and you dare to speak so arrogantly …"
"That's right, you don't even refuse anyone."
"You are really a frog at the bottom of a well. You even dare to provoke a core disciple. Do you know that even if they suppress their cultivation to the same level as yours, a core disciple can still defeat you?"
Xiao Chen's words caused many disciples to be dissatisfied. Of course, this dissatisfaction stemmed more from jealousy. They could not understand why a newly promoted outer sect disciple's every word and action was enough to attract the attention of the entire East Sword Pavilion.
In the face of all kinds of provocation and slander, Xiao Chen's expression remained calm. A light flashed from the storage ring in his hand, and a three feet long sword instantly appeared in his hand. He pointed the tip of the sword as he spoke indifferently.
"If all of you only know how to talk, then save your energy. If you want to stop me from becoming a disciple, then show me your strength. If anyone of the same level can defeat me, I will immediately give up on becoming a disciple."
As Xiao Chen spoke, Sword Qi continued to gather around his body. Swish, swish, swish, swish. Feeling the Sword Qi on Xiao Chen's body, the surrounding crowd quickly quieted down.
Many people were shocked by the fact that Xiao Chen was able to comprehend sword aura at the age of 18. Although they were jealous and even hostile toward Xiao Chen, they had to admit that Xiao Chen's talent was indeed incredible. Even the top three geniuses of the Outer Sanctum were only able to comprehend sword aura after the age of 20. However, Xiao Chen was able to do so at the age of 18.
Cang Yun's gaze slowly swept across the crowd. Seeing that Xiao Chen had actually taken the initiative to make trouble, Cang Yun, who was on the high platform, smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother, this child is not bad. His talent and temperament are both excellent."
"Of course. How could this old man's judgment be wrong?" Cang Xuan replied without any trace of politeness after hearing Cang Yun's words.
"Yes, your judgment is not bad. However, look at the two disciples before you. One is a famous female T-Rex, while the other is an extremely lazy brat. If they can contribute 30% of their strength, they will definitely not contribute 40%." Cang Xuan's face was full of smiles, but soon after, Cang Long opened his mouth to mock.
After hearing Cang Long's words, the smile on Cang Xuan's face immediately disappeared. Even Cang Yun helplessly shook his head. Indeed, Cang Xuan's judgment was not bad. The two disciples he had accepted so far had already become the focus of attention in the Sword Pavilion. They were very talented, but their personalities, sigh …
No one knew how to evaluate Cang Xuan's two disciples. In any case, even Cang Yun, who was the pavilion master of the East Sword Pavilion, felt an incomparable headache when facing them.
Obviously, they did not want to talk about these things. The three of them once again looked at Xiao Chen. At the same time, the first challenger appeared. It was one of the three monsters of the outer gate, Zhao Kuo.
Among the many disciples, not many were blinded by the fire of jealousy in their hearts. Therefore, those with ordinary strength and talent did not have the guts to challenge Xiao Chen. This was because Xiao Chen had made it very clear that if they wanted to challenge him, they could suppress their cultivation to the Initial Stage of the Yellow Realm.
Of course, ordinary disciples would not be able to defeat Xiao Chen if they were of the same level of cultivation. As such, most of them would not come out to embarrass themselves. In the entire outer sect, it was estimated that only the three geniuses dared to fight Xiao Chen at the same level.
Zhao Kuo slowly walked out of the crowd and said with a stern face.
"Xiao Chen, sometimes, the higher you stand, the harder you fall. You have just entered the outer gate, so you should not be so high-profile."
"I don't want to be like this. Worshipping a teacher will cause public anger. If I don't do this, how can you let me be your teacher? How about I apologize, and you won't stop me? "Hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Xiao Chen replied helplessly.
In fact, he did not want to be so high-profile, but there was no other way. So many people wanted to make a fool of him. Instead of passively being beaten, it was better to take the initiative. At least he could take the initiative. Just like now, Xiao Chen had made the rule that he would only accept challenges from those in the same realm.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, a cold light flashed in Zhao Kuo's eyes. The Storage Ring in her hand flashed, and her sword appeared in her hand. Holding the long sword, Zhao Kuo also emitted her own Sword Qi and suppressed her cultivation to the Initial Stage of the Yellow Realm.
"You are not the only one in the Outer Sect who has comprehended Sword Qi. When I said high-profile, I did not mean your current attitude. Instead, I meant that from the very beginning, you should have understood that you are not worthy to be the Headmaster's disciple. At least, you are not worthy now.
After finishing her words, without waiting for Xiao Chen's reply, Zhao Kuo directly moved her feet and rushed toward Xiao Chen.
Zhao Kuo also comprehended Sword Qi, so her attack was extremely fierce and violent.
As one of the top three evildoers of the outer gate, Zhao Kuo's reputation was not exaggerated, but real. Facing Zhao Kuo, Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless. At the same time, he did not want to waste time with Zhao Kuo. Seeing Zhao Kuo's sword, Xiao Chen did not dodge. Instead, he also stabbed Zhao Kuo's long sword.
The tips of the two swords fiercely collided with each other. Surrounded by Sword Qi, there was a constant sound of cutting.
"Senior Brother Zhao Kuo, your Sword Qi is not completely stable. You have not even reached the Beginner Realm. You are not my opponent in terms of Sword Qi." Xiao Chen said to Zhao Kuo indifferently.
