Bai Wuchen had his own schemes, but Ji Tianxing did not bother to retaliate with a scheme.
He wanted to use an open strategy to deal with Bai Wuchen. He wanted to defeat Bai Wuchen fair and square!
Even though he was only at Lv 2 Tongxuan Realm, Bai Wuchen was ranked fourth on the Heaven Leaderboard and was at Lv 8 Tongxuan Realm.
In Bai Wuchen's opinion, this was a ridiculous and overconfident challenge.
However, Ji Tianxing knew what he was doing. He was confident that he could defeat Bai Wuchen in the Heaven Leaderboard Competition next month and make a name for himself!
After challenging Bai Wuchen, Ji Tianxing ignored his various reactions and turned to leave Wu Chang Yard for the Inner Court Square.
Bai Wuchen stared at his back and laughed in disdain and surprise.
"Hahaha, Ji Tianxing, oh Ji Tianxing, to think that I treated you as an opponent and planned how to deal with you slowly.
"I didn't expect you to be so stupid to challenge me and give me such a great opportunity!
"In the Heaven Leaderboard Competition next month, I will make sure you suffer a crushing defeat and become the biggest joke in Tianchen Region!"
Ji Tianxing ignored Bai Wuchen's taunts and headed to the Inner Court Square expressionlessly.
The Inner Court Square was located at the peak of Towering Sky Peak. It was surrounded by a magnificent palace.
The square wasn't very big, only about three hundred meters in radius. Normally, very few disciples would gather here.
However, this was the place where the Inner Court released news and missions and held gatherings.
There was a high platform in the north of the square that was paved with marble.
Usually, if there was a celebration or a meeting, the Elders would stand on the platform to host it.
At the edge of the platform stood a black stone tablet that was 10 meters tall.
There was a mysterious array in the tablet that made it look like a huge screen that could display words.
In the past, when the Inner Court released missions and news, the Elders and Deacons would send the information to the stone tablet and display it in big, shining white words.
When disciples wanted to challenge each other, they could also enter the information on the stone tablet and issue a challenge letter in public.
The content of the challenge letter could be displayed on the stone tablet for three days. After three days, it would disappear automatically.
Of course, in the past two years, such a thing had almost never happened in the inner sect.
Even if there were grudges between the inner disciples, they would try their best to endure it. They would fight endlessly in the dark while pretending to be harmonious on the surface.
Therefore, in the past two years, the Inner Sect had been relatively peaceful, and there had not been any disturbances.
But today was different. Ji Tianxing was destined to break the tranquility of the Inner Sanctum and stir up a huge storm!
He stepped onto the high platform, stretched out his right hand, and pressed it against the black stone tablet. He poured his True Essence into the stone tablet, activating the array within the tablet.
Then, he used his spiritual sense to input information into the formation and issued a challenge.
After a short while, dozens of clear white words appeared on the stone tablet.
"I, Ji Tianxing, challenge elite disciple Bai Wuchen to a duel at the Heaven Ranking Tournament next month …"
"The loser is willing to become a menial disciple for one year!"
After a long while, Ji Tianxing withdrew his hand when the contents of the letter of challenge were completely displayed on the stone tablet.
He glanced at the words on the stone tablet, turned around, and left the Inner Square.
When he returned to Tianxing Courtyard, an inner disciple passed by the square and inadvertently glanced at the stone tablet on the high platform.
Every time the disciple passed by the Inner Square, he would habitually glance at the stone tablet to see if the message on the tablet had changed.
When he saw the words on the stone tablet, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Ji Tianxing? Isn't he the new Sect Leader's disciple? "
"He wants to challenge Senior Brother Bai Wuchen? And it's at the Heaven Ranking Tournament next month? If he loses, he will have to be a menial disciple for one year? "
"Oh my god! This is unbelievable! "
"The Sect Leader's disciple issued a challenge to an elite disciple in public? Ever since I entered the Inner Sect, I've never encountered such a thing! "
The inner disciple growled in disbelief. He quickly left the square and rushed back to his residence excitedly.
He shouted a few times in the courtyard. After attracting a few inner disciples, he could not wait to spread the news.
When the disciples heard the news, they were shocked and found it unbelievable.
Some of them could not believe it and quickly rushed to the square to see the challenge letter with their own eyes.
When the disciples saw the challenge letter on the stone tablet, they were ecstatic. They rushed back to their residence excitedly and spread the news.
In just four to six hours, the news that the Sect Leader's disciple, Ji Tianxing, was going to challenge the elite disciple, Bai Wuchen, spread among the inner disciples.
Soon, dozens of white-robed disciples gathered in the square. They gathered in groups of three to five and discussed excitedly.
Even the deacons in the Inner Sect were alarmed and rushed to the square to see what was going on.
When they saw the challenge letter on the stone tablet, their expressions became very complicated. They left the square to report the news to the elders.
In an instant, the entire Inner Sect was alarmed. Countless disciples were in an uproar.
From the elders and deacons to the hundreds of inner disciples, everyone was discussing the matter enthusiastically.
In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the Inner Sect Square at the peak of the mountain.
The dozens of white words on the stone tablet were dyed with a layer of gold by the setting sun. It was even more dazzling.
Just as the disciples were discussing animatedly, two young disciples in white robes with dignified appearances walked into the square together.
The two of them came to the middle of the square and looked up at the challenge letter on the stone tablet with a playful smile.
When the surrounding disciples saw the two of them, they were immediately in awe and envy. They whispered to each other.
"Look, it's Senior Brother Chen Su and Senior Brother Tang Yiluo!"
"Hehe, Chen Su and Tang Yiluo are also alarmed!"
"Chen Su is second on the Heaven List and Tang Yiluo is third. Their strength is similar to Bai Wuchen's."
"Ji Tianxing entered the Inner Sect and became the Sect Leader's disciple. He must have angered Senior Brother Bai Wuchen and caused a conflict between the two of them, which led to the duel."
"Yes, not only is Senior Brother Bai angry, but Senior Brother Chen and Senior Brother Tang are also not convinced. I wonder what they are thinking now?"
Although the eyes of the Inner Sect disciples in the square were focused on Chen Su and Tang Yiluo, they were very respectful to them.
However, the numerous disciples were very respectful towards the two of them. They only quietly watched from afar and did not come forward to greet them.
After reading the challenge letter on the stone tablet, Chen Su and Tang Yiluo left the square and walked into the depths of the palace.
On the way, Tang Yiluo said with a playful smile, "Hehe, I didn't expect the new Sect Leader's disciple, Ji Tianxing, to be such a reckless fool."
"He just entered the Inner Sect for a few days and he's already fighting with Bai Wuchen. They even went to the extent of issuing a challenge letter!"
