The Heavenly Opportunity ended in front of countless disciples. When the news spread back to the Northern and Southern Region, it caused an even greater shock. No one had expected that Hong Gu would be defeated by an ordinary-looking Holy Son of the Southern Region without even making it to the final round.
"Hong Gu … Holy Son Hong Gu was defeated?!"
"How is this possible?! Holy Son Hong Gu is the number one disciple of the Northern Region. He could even defeat Luo Xue, let alone … "
"Our Northern Region lost to the Southern Region that we've always looked down on …"
When the news spread, the disciples of the Northern Region kept exclaiming like this. More recently, there were even disciples who went to investigate Yan Chutian's identity. After doing so, they were even more shocked to discover that this ordinary-looking Holy Son of the Southern Region had been a legend all along.
Under such circumstances, the disciples of the Northern Region could only helplessly accept this unbelievable result. There was nothing else they could do. They could imagine that after this Heavenly Opportunity, the power structure of the Northern and Southern Region would definitely be adjusted again. Many of the cultivation resources that the Northern Region had occupied would be taken back by the Southern Region.
Perhaps the rise of the Southern Region was already a fact that they could not suppress.
At the same time, the Southern Region was filled with cheers. They were overjoyed that the Southern Region had defeated the Northern Region openly in the Heavenly Opportunity Meeting.
From now on, although the Southern Region's status would not immediately be on par with the Northern Region's, they had a chance to catch up. In the future, they might be able to return to the same level as the Northern Region many years ago, or even surpass it.
At the same time, Yan Chu's name naturally spread throughout the Southern Region. Every disciple of the Southern Region knew how he had shocked the entire Heavenly Opportunity Meeting by defeating Hong Gu and making the final decision.
Now that they thought about it, many of the disciples who had ridiculed Yan Chutian for overestimating himself or ridiculed him felt extremely ashamed. None of them could have imagined that the seemingly ordinary fellow who had only created a small sensation would actually be able to continue this sensation and ascend to the peak of the Heavenly Mystery Sect.
Even those who had once opposed Yan Chutian, whether they were prospective Chosen Saints or those who already possessed the status of Chosen Saints, had complicated expressions on their faces. Even Xu Jian could not face this calmly.
However, there were still a few eccentrics among them. One of them was Zhao Hong, who had competed with Yan Chutian for the position of Candidate Holy Son when he had joined the sect. Now that he knew that Yan Chutian had reached the top of the Heaven Fate Gate, he no longer felt ashamed of his failure back then. Instead, he was proud of it and told many of his disciples about it.
As for those disciples, they were actually listening with great interest …
After the Tian Ji Meeting, the severely injured Yan Chutian did not return to his own cave. Instead, he was brought back to his own cave by Han Chen. After entering Han Chen's cave, the weak Yan Chutian couldn't help but sigh. An elder's cave was much better than a disciple's.
However, he actually did not care about this. Otherwise, after creating a sensation time and time again and advancing his status, he would have already proposed to change to a better cave.
After being sent to the depths of the cave by Han Chen to heal his injuries and receiving the medicinal pills that Han Chen had given him, Yan Chutian could not help but smile helplessly in his heart. As expected, now that he had submitted a satisfactory result, the treatment he received could not be mentioned in the same breath as before.
Yan Chutian healed his injuries until the night was deep. Only then did he finally come out of seclusion. When he walked out of the depths of the cave, Han Chen who was sitting cross-legged in the hall immediately opened his eyes and cast a joyful gaze that could not help but smile.
At the same time, Qiu Yu's reaction was extremely exaggerated. She walked over and looked left and right, almost lifting his clothes to check carefully.
"Cough cough … be careful, this old fellow is still here."
At the critical moment, Han Chen coughed awkwardly and stopped Qiu Yu's perverted hands that were about to touch Yan Chutian's body.
Qiu Yu seemed to only know that she was in the other party's cave after Han Chen coughed dryly. So, she quickly stopped and looked at Han Chen calmly. Even Han Chen could not look at that gaze for a long time.
This made Han Chen faintly feel a little strange in his heart. It seemed that the temperament of the girl in front of him was very different from before. What was going on?
However, after thinking about it for a while, Han Chen stopped thinking about it. After all, he could not fabricate any reason. Perhaps this was the reason why the girl was so mysterious and shocking.
At the same time, after looking at Han Chen for a long time, Qiu Yu finally said, "Elder Han, since we have fulfilled your expectations, then the two spots for the Heaven's Pride Grand Event …"
At the mention of the Heaven's Pride Grand Event, Han Chen still could not suppress his joy. How was this meeting his expectations? It was clearly exceeding! So, he patted his chest happily and said cheerfully, "Those spots will naturally not be a problem. Originally, with this old face of mine, I could have fought for a spot. But now, with your performance, even those things in the North Region can't stop us from occupying and distributing the spots!"
"Then we will quietly wait for Master Han's good news!"
Qiu Yu smiled faintly and looked back at Yan Chutian. Her glance made Yan Chutian's heart beat faster. She really had the feeling of looking back and smiling charmingly.
"Mm."
Han Chen smiled faintly and nodded again. Then, as if he remembered something, he hurriedly said, "By the way, although the Heaven's Secret Meeting between the North and South Region has ended, we still need a champion in the South Region, so …"
Han Chen looked at the two of them. If it were two random Holy Sons, they would still be unable to avoid a soul-stirring battle at this point. However, this was obviously not the case with the two in front of him. After all, he was clear about the relationship between the two.
And as expected, Yan Chutian, who had not spoken since the beginning, immediately said, "The champion position naturally belongs to Senior Sister Xiaoyu."
"At least you're tactful!"
Qiu Yu looked back at Yan Chutian and snorted with a smile. But of course, she did not care about the champion position. What she cared about was Yan Chutian's attitude towards her.
Although he knew this would happen, Han Chen could not help but laugh bitterly when he saw the two of them decide on the position of the champion with just a few words. Only the heavens knew when the title of the Tian Ji Association's champion that all the Saints yearned for would become so worthless.
So, Han Chen could only smile again. "Alright … As long as you're happy!"
The next day, the news of Qiu Yu becoming the champion of the Heaven's Secret Meeting spread throughout the entire Heaven's Secret Sect. This caused the northern region to feel even more pain, while the southern region was in an uproar.
That day, many disciples had seen Qiu Yu's ambiguous attitude towards Yan Chutian with their own eyes. Now that the champion position was decided so easily, it was hard for some disciples not to make the connection.
"This … could it be that Holy Son Yan Chu directly gave the champion position to Holy Daughter Xiaoyu?"
"What should I do? He even gave up the champion position. How can I compete with such a competitor?"
"Oh … my new goddess, is she going to fall into someone else's arms so soon?"
Amidst the heartbroken cries, a certain young girl gritted her teeth and snorted. She was Loring.
Hearing the various rumors, Loring gritted her teeth. She could not help but think of Yan Chutian's fawning appearance towards Qiu Yu. She was furious.
"This … this idiot! Just because he saw a little beauty, he didn't even want the champion position?! "
No matter how he looked at it, there was a hint of jealousy in her soft humph.
…
The competition for a spot in the Heavenly Pride Meeting was obviously not something that could be done in a day or two, so Yan Chutian naturally would not wait for news in the cave. Moreover, Yin-yang Master had given him an order before the Heaven's Secret Meeting, and now was the time to complete it.
After chatting with Qiu Yu for a while, Yan Chutian walked towards the Sacred Master Mountain under the latter's worried gaze.
Just like that day, Yan Chutian walked up the Sacred Master Mountain without any obstructions. The three checkpoints did not stop him. However, when Yan Chutian reached the mountainside, he once again caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
This figure was not her, but Luo Xue. However, Yan Chutian did not expect that not long after the Heaven's Secret Meeting ended, this woman could not wait to improve herself again.
Yan Chutian did not disturb Luo Xue. He lightly tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and disappeared on the spot, heading towards the peak like a ghost. However, just as he was moving at top speed, Luo Xue, who had been concentrating all this time, suddenly looked over at the place where Yan Chutian was previously.
"Was it an illusion …?"
Her red lips parted slightly as she whispered softly. Then, she focused her mind on the checkpoints again. Now, in the Heaven's Secret Sect, and even in the Southern Region, she was under a lot of pressure because she was no longer the number one disciple.
