Tang Yiluo's eyes glinted coldly as he muttered under his breath.
"That Ji Tianxing's strength is weak and he's so reckless. I don't know how he got lucky and became the Sect Leader's personal disciple."
Chen Su smiled and said mockingly, "Junior Brother Tang, you can't say that."
"That Ji Tianxing might not be a reckless idiot. He might be a fearless warrior who charges forward recklessly."
"The elite disciples of the Inner Sanctum have been secretly competing with each other all these years. They don't dare to fight openly and have to pretend to be harmonious on the surface."
"Now, Ji Tianxing has appeared out of nowhere and caused such a big commotion as soon as he entered the Inner Sanctum!"
"This kid has only been in the Inner Sanctum for three months. He doesn't even know the rules and situation of the Inner Sanctum yet he dares to challenge Bai Wuchen in public. His courage is commendable."
"This is a good thing for us. We can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. We can watch him and Bai Wuchen fight until both of them suffer!"
Tang Yiluo frowned and thought for a moment before nodding. "If that's the case, Ji Tianxing is a troublemaker!"
"It's a pity that he's too weak. How can he be a match for Bai Wuchen?"
"I'd like to see how he'll end up after being defeated and humiliated by Bai Wuchen."
Chen Su nodded and sneered meaningfully. "When that time comes, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his position as the Sect Leader's personal disciple."
Tang Yiluo looked expectant and said proudly, "Moreover, Bai Wuchen will definitely leave a bad impression on the Sect Leader because of this."
"If that's the case, Bai Wuchen will lose 800 of his own men to kill 1000 of his enemies. We'll have one less competitor!"
"Hehe, that's right." Chen Su nodded again and the smile on his face became even more smug.
…
Under a towering tree in Wuchang Yard.
Bai Wuchen was sitting on a stone bench with a teacup in his hand and a smile on his face as he slowly sipped on his tea.
Hao Meng sat opposite him with a complicated expression. He looked like he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
After a while, Bai Wuchen put down his teacup and looked at Hao Meng with a smile. "Junior Brother Hao, you already know about the letter of challenge?"
Hao Meng nodded and smiled bitterly, "Ji Tianxing's challenge letter will be displayed on the stone tablet for three days. Now, the entire inner sect knows about it."
"I say, Senior Brother Bai, Ji Tianxing has already issued a challenge to you in front of everyone, how can you still laugh? Why are you still leisurely drinking tea? "
Bai Wuchen raised his eyebrows. His pale and thin face flushed with excitement.
He raised the teacup in his hand and said in a playful tone, "That idiot walked right into my trap. Why shouldn't I laugh?"
"Originally, I had already taken him seriously and treated him as my opponent. I even planned how to deal with him. In the end, I realized that he was still a country bumpkin from a small country. "
"Does he think that he can look down on everyone just because he was lucky enough to become the Sect Leader's disciple?"
"And the result? Wasn't he still toyed with by me? He was so angry that he lost his mind and issued a challenge to me in front of everyone? "
"Hehe, I'm going to trample on him in front of everyone in the Heaven Roll Competition next month! I'm going to make him suffer a crushing defeat. I'm going to make him crawl away like a stray dog and become a lowly servant! "
"Consider this cup of tea as an early celebration."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.
Hao Meng frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Senior Brother Bai, what did you do to Ji Tianxing? How did you force him to issue a challenge to you in front of everyone? "
Bai Wuchen smiled coldly and said in a low voice, "Hehe, I just used a little trick to make him suffer a little. He was so angry that he came knocking on my door to issue a challenge."
"Junior Brother Hao, tell me, how can a brute with such weak strength and no shrewdness fight with me? How can he be favored by Eldest Senior Sister? "
Hao Meng frowned and did not answer.
There were some things that he did not want to say, but it did not mean that he did not have any opinions.
He could clearly feel that ever since he met Ji Tianxing, Bai Wuchen had become more and more narrow-minded. He had also become unreasonable.
However, he knew the reason for Bai Wuchen's change, so he could not say anything.
After a long silence, he said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Bai, I went to visit Eldest Senior Sister today."
"Three days later, the Sect Leader will not attend the Eight Sect Meeting. Instead, he will let Eldest Senior Sister and Ji Tianxing attend in his place."
"What?" Bai Wuchen's body trembled, and the hand holding the teacup trembled.
His face instantly darkened, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Impossible! That's impossible! "
"The Eight Sect Meeting is such an important meeting that even you and I are not qualified to attend. How can the Sect Leader let Ji Tianxing attend?"
Bai Wuchen's face was ashen, and his tone was cold. He obviously could not accept this news.
Seeing him like this, Hao Meng could not help but sigh. "Senior Brother Bai, don't you understand?"
"The reason why the Sect Leader values Ji Tianxing so much is not as simple as his contributions to the Sect. The Sect Leader is grooming him as his successor!"
"Now that you and Ji Tianxing have fallen out, you're like fire and water. The letter of challenge cannot be withdrawn."
"Senior Brother Bai, even if you defeat Ji Tianxing in front of everyone at the Heaven List Tournament next month, did you really win?"
"Ji Tianxing will be relegated to being a servant, but you've also offended the Sect Leader! The real winners are Chen Su and Tang Yiluo! "
After listening to Hao Meng's analysis, Bai Wuchen's face darkened, and his hands trembled in anger.
His eyes were fixed on the stone table as he muttered to himself, "Impossible! As long as I defeat Ji Tianxing, I'll prove that I'm better than him and more qualified to be the Sect Leader's disciple! "
"The position of the Sect Leader is mine, and so is Eldest Senior Sister! I won't lose! "
Seeing this, Hao Meng sighed helplessly. He stood up and patted Bai Wuchen's shoulder.
"Senior Brother Bai, you'd better calm down and think about it."
"I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, Hao Meng turned and left Wu Chang Yard.
Bai Wuchen was still frozen in place with an ugly expression. He sat there for a long time without getting up.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
In these two days, the entire Inner Sect was in an uproar. Everyone was talking about the duel between Ji Tianxing and Bai Wuchen.
In fact, the news spread out of the Inner Sect, and even many of the Outer Sect disciples knew about it.
The Outer Sect disciples were unfamiliar with the Inner Sect disciples, but they knew Ji Tianxing very well.
Especially after the Dragon Mountain Tournament and the apprenticeship ceremony, many Outer Sect disciples were proud of him and worshipped him.
When the Outer Sect disciples heard that Ji Tianxing was going to challenge Bai Wuchen, they were in an uproar and discussed it excitedly.
