"Whether or not it will affect the results of the competition is another matter. As for stripping Senior Brother Yan Hong of his qualifications, it has nothing to do with me. This is the decision of the higher ups of the hall!"
Luo Zheng said with a smile, "If Senior Brother Hou is unhappy, why don't I ask the hall master to replace you with Senior Brother Yan Hong before the competition officially begins?"
"Kid, don't be too arrogant!"
Hou Tianqi's expression changed, and he immediately stared at Luo Zheng.
If he wanted to enter the inner sect, he had to at least have the chance to participate in the Sword Hall Competition!
Otherwise, with hundreds of millions of outer sect disciples, if he didn't have the chance to perform, it would be impossible for him to be noticed by the higher ups of the inner sect.
Although the chances of Hou Tianqi being selected as an inner sect disciple were extremely slim, he was unwilling to let go of this opportunity.
Moreover, if someone else were to participate in the competition and performed well, the Sword Hall would very likely let him participate next year.
Hou Tianqi would have fewer chances to participate in the Sword Hall Competition in the future.
If it was anyone else who said such words, he wouldn't care at all.
However, Luo Zheng had just made a great contribution and would definitely be valued by the higher ups of Tungsten Kendo. If he suggested it, it might be considered!
"Alright, the competition hasn't even started yet and you're already arguing. Won't you be laughed at by your opponents? Since it's the Sword Hall's decision, there must be a deeper meaning!"
At this time, Lian Zi Ang said, "Junior Brother Hou, you will go first in the first round, then Junior Sister Jiang, Junior Brother Yang, and me. Junior Brother Li Sheng will be the last to hold the line!"
Lian Zi Ang's cultivation was the highest and was equivalent to the eldest senior brother. Hearing him speak, Hou Tianqi suppressed his anger and stopped talking.
Jiang Xiaoyu and Yang Xingjia both agreed. Although the two of them did not speak out in support of Hou Tianqi, they were very cold to Luo Zheng. It was obvious that they were somewhat dissatisfied.
Yan Hong's strength was ranked at the bottom of the five.
Luo Zheng was arranged to go last, and he had no objections.
This time, he was not competing for a ranking, nor did he care if he could go on stage or not. Being last was naturally the best choice.
Hou Tianqi had defeated three opponents on his own, and when he met the fourth opponent, he had been defeated because he had exhausted too much of his True Essence.
However, Jiang Xiaoyu was even stronger than Hou Tianqi. She easily defeated her two opponents and won Tungsten Kendo's first victory!
On the first day of the official competition, the other competitions were the same as Tungsten Kendo. There were no waves, and the powerful Kendo Hall easily won!
However, the news of Luo Zheng participating in the official competition spread out after the competition for the first place. It caused an uproar!
"Do you know that Li Sheng Swordsman actually became one of the five disciples of Tungsten Kendo to participate in the competition?"
"That's impossible. He's just a new disciple. He doesn't have the qualifications to participate in the official competition. Is there a mistake?"
"There's absolutely no mistake. Many Tungsten Kendo disciples have personally confirmed this matter. Moreover, although there's no precedent in the past, the sect has never prohibited new disciples from participating in the competition!"
"That's ridiculous. No matter how strong a new disciple is, how can he be compared with an outer sect expert who has cultivated for many years?"
"It's said that Li Sheng Swordsman asked for it himself. Because he had just made a great contribution, the higher-ups of Tungsten Kendo couldn't refuse!"
"Humph, this person is too self-righteous. Does he think that he can do whatever he wants just because he defeated some new disciples? Do you know how his performance was today? "
"The other disciples of Tungsten Kendo didn't even give him a chance to fight!"
Right now, Luo Zheng's reputation was too resounding in the Outer Hall. Even the slightest movement would spread far and wide, not to mention the news of him participating in the official Large Competition.
In less than half a day, everyone knew about it, and it quickly spread to the Inner Sect.
"There's a path in heaven, but you don't take it. There's no door to hell, but you insist on coming!"
On a small island full of Spiritual Qi in the Inner Sect's Cloud Sea, Shentu Jun's face turned cold when he heard the news.
His figure flashed, and he disappeared without a trace!
…
"Hmm, why is Senior Sister Rong 'er looking for me?"
At this moment, Luo Zheng had already returned to his cave dwelling. Just as he was about to sit down and cultivate, he received a message from Shen Rong 'er inviting him to the Su Shui Club.
After thinking for a while, he immediately left the cave dwelling and rushed to Suiyu Sword Hall.
Before long, he entered the Su Shui Club and saw Shen Rong 'er.
"Senior Sister Rong 'er!"
Luo Zheng walked into the hall and greeted Shen Rong 'er with a smile when he saw her.
"Humph, you've been in the limelight recently, so you don't come to our Su Shui Club anymore. Did you find your soulmate, Yao Qingyan?"
Shen Rong 'er asked as soon as she saw Luo Zheng.
"Senior Sister, don't make fun of me. Miss Yao is just a good friend of mine! Back then, she went to the lower realms to train, and we got to know each other. I'm looking for her because she has something that I need! "
Luo Zheng explained.
"Alright, you don't have to explain. I won't tell Senior Sister Su Shui about this!"
Shen Rong 'er said with a smile.
"May I know why Senior Sister has asked me to come here?"
Luo Zheng smiled. He knew that he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Let me ask you. You've been in the limelight recently, so why don't you ask about Senior Sister Su Shui? What is the meaning of this? "
Shen Rong 'er's face darkened. "You won first place in the New Disciple Competition, but you didn't come to our Su Shui Club to tell us the good news. Are you waiting for Senior Sister Su Shui to come to your cave dwelling to congratulate you?"
Luo Zheng smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.
After the New Disciple Competition, he met with Xia Qingqing and then took in the five disciples of Baijiang Kendō as his followers.
Just going from Tungsten Kendo to Baijiang Kendō took a lot of time. After the competition, he was so busy that his feet didn't even touch the ground. He really didn't have any free time!
"Alright, I'm just joking with you. You don't have to worry. Senior Sister Su Shui isn't a petty person. Naturally, she won't be angry because of this. However, she's worried about you participating in the official competition. You'd better go see her! "
Shen Rong 'er said.
Luo Zheng nodded and walked into the depths of the Su Shui Club.
"Senior Sister Su Shui!"
Luo Zheng saw that the door of the palace where Ying Su Shui usually cultivated was ajar. He pushed the door open and walked in!
"Hmph, who let you in?"
Ying Su Shui looked at Luo Zheng and said coldly.
"Senior Sister, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong to offend Senior Sister? If that's the case, I'll apologize to Senior Sister! "
