While everyone in the Sword Sect was excited about Lu Xuan's strong results and wanted to join hands to create a new situation for the Sword Sect, Zheng Gang's eyes were filled with jealousy at this moment.
He was about to go mad with jealousy, his hands tightly clenched into fists and his heart roared with all his might, "Glory, rewards, it's all mine! All of this should have been mine! I am the true genius! This Lu Xuan only had good luck and relied on a few tricks to achieve such a high result in the Sword Forest. In terms of realm, he is far inferior to me and his strength is definitely inferior to me! "
Lu Xuan's brilliance was too dazzling and Zheng Gang had already been completely overshadowed. Even if someone mentioned this test in the future, they would only remember that there was a Lu Xuan and not Zheng Gang. No, perhaps there would still be people who would remember. They would remember that there was a guy who overestimated himself and tried in vain to provoke Lu Xuan, but in the end, he slapped his own face. In front of Lu Xuan, Zheng Gang was completely a supporting character.
For someone as proud and arrogant as him who believed himself to be a genius, how could he accept this? In his eyes, it was Lu Xuan who had used underhanded means to steal everything that should have belonged to him.
He was unwilling! He did not believe that Lu Xuan could rely on a mere fifth-layer Body Refinement cultivation to be so powerful.
In order to take back everything that belonged to him, Zheng Gang forcefully suppressed the jealousy in his heart and took a step forward. He once again opened his mouth and said, "Vice Sect Leader, we did not see what happened in the Sword Forest just now. I do not believe that Lu Xuan could rely on a fifth-layer Body Refinement cultivation to reach such a level. Maybe he used some underhanded means. Only if he can defeat me will I be convinced."
"Yes! We also do not believe it. Unless Lu Xuan can defeat senior Zheng, we will not accept it! "
"That's right, a mere fifth-layer Body Refinement martial artist was actually able to kill so many seventh-layer Body Refinement enemies, how is this possible!"
… …
With Zheng Gang taking the lead, the Saber Sect disciples immediately began to clamor and strongly requested for Lu Xuan to fight with Zheng Gang.
"Hmm? Are you questioning me?! " A hint of anger flashed across Elder Jin's face. He had just expressed his high opinion of Lu Xuan, yet Zheng Gang and the others had jumped out to question the results of the test. How could he not be angry?
As the deputy head of Wind Sword School, although Elder Jin's temper wasn't bad, it didn't mean that he didn't have a temper. How dare a few newly matriculated disciples behave atrociously in front of him? How outrageous!
When they saw Elder Jin get angry, all the Saber Sect disciples that were causing a commotion earlier were instantly terrified to the extreme, and they immediately went silent while avoiding eye contact with Elder Jin's threatening gaze.
However, Zheng Gang wholeheartedly wanted to reclaim the glory that he deserved. Even if he was facing an enraged Elder Jin, Zheng Gang still became bolder. He braced himself and said: "This disciple naturally doesn't dare to question deputy head, I'm only worried that you've been deceived by a vile person. If Lu Xuan is really that strong, then come down and fight with this disciple and the results will be clear. Even if I lose, this disciple will be convinced of my loss."
Upon hearing this, Elder Jin coldly snorted and said: "There's no need. There has never been a problem in the Sword Forest test for so many years. Lu Xuan's results will definitely not be wrong. Don't try to play some tricks just because your results are not as good as others. Working hard to raise your own strength is the right path."
How could the experienced Elder Jin not see through what Zheng Gang was planning? He immediately pointed it out. Currently, Elder Jin already felt a trace of disgust towards Zheng Gang. To think that he had previously felt that Zheng Gang's talent was not bad and was a promising talent. He never imagined that he was actually such a narrow-minded disciple. It was unknown how he had passed the character test during the sect entrance test.
Zheng Gang's face alternated between red and white when he was mercilessly criticized by Elder Jin. He couldn't continue speaking, but he was unwilling to back down.
Lu Xuan walked over to Elder Cheng's side and asked, "Grand Elder, the members of the Saber Sect are too arrogant. If I don't fight them, it would damage the reputation of the Sword Sect. I would like to go down and teach them a lesson. I wonder if it's possible?"
Elder Cheng laughed loudly when he heard this. "The members of the Saber Sect? Of course it's possible! Trample on them however you want! There's no need to give me face. They've been arrogant for many years. Every dog has its day. This time, I'll let them experience the might of my Sword Sect. Go! "
When he spoke these words, Elder Cheng felt a wave of exaltation. This sort of feeling was truly satisfying!
After obtaining Elder Cheng's approval, Lu Xuan instantly stepped forward and said to Elder Jin, "Thank you for your concern, Vice Sect Leader. However, since there are people who are unconvinced, then I'm willing to fight Zheng Gang and let the facts speak for themselves."
When Lu Xuan's words came out, the hesitant Zheng Gang was overjoyed. He was worried that he wouldn't be able to fight Lu Xuan. He didn't expect that Lu Xuan would actually deliver himself to his doorstep!
Facing Lu Xuan, Elder Jin's expression also eased up. He slowly said, "Challenges between disciples are a common occurrence. Since you're willing to accept this challenge, then this old man naturally won't stop you. Yes, you've just come out from the Sword Forest. It would be unfair for you to fight now. How about this, recover your Origin Power first and make your preparations before you challenge."
He helped Lu Xuan block the challenge out of consideration for Lu Xuan. However, since Lu Xuan had agreed to the challenge himself, then he naturally had no reason to stop him. Furthermore, Elder Jin also wanted to see what abilities Lu Xuan had to actually be able to charge into the top 300 of the overall ranking with the strength of the fifth level of the Body Refinement Realm.
But what surprised him was that Lu Xuan actually tactfully rejected his kind intentions once again.
"Elder's good intentions, Lu Xuan appreciates it. However, I've just recovered 10% of my Origin Power. It's naturally not enough to charge into the Sword Forest, but if it's just to deal with this Senior Apprentice Brother Zheng, it's enough!"
When Lu Xuan's words came out, everyone was shocked!
Wild! Simply too wild!
They admitted that Lu Xuan was very powerful, but right now, Lu Xuan actually wanted to use 10% of his Origin Power to accept Zheng Gang's challenge. Wasn't this too arrogant?
Elder Jin's eyes also couldn't help but flash a trace of astonishment. Lu Xuan's cultivation level was lower than Zheng Gang's, but at this moment, he actually dared to accept the challenge with 10% of his Origin Power. Moreover, he looked full of confidence. Just what gave him this confidence?
When Lu Xuan's words reached Zheng Gang's ears, Zheng Gang's entire body was trembling with anger.
Humiliation!
This was simply undisguised humiliation! When had he, Zheng Gang, suffered this sort of humiliation before? This was completely not putting him in his eyes at all!
But right at this moment, a familiar voice transmission landed in Zheng Gang's ears. "Calm down! The more arrogant this Lu Xuan is, the greater your chances of winning. When you attack later, don't show the slightest bit of mercy! "
Zheng Gang suddenly turned his head and saw that his father, Elder Zheng, was currently looking at him. The voice transmission earlier was sent out by him.
Getting Elder Zheng's reminder, Zheng Gang instantly calmed down. Indeed, the more arrogant Lu Xuan was, the greater his chances of winning. Thinking up to here, Zheng Gang's face revealed a trace of a sinister smile.
Even if your strength is really stronger than mine, just relying on 10% of your Origin Power and you want to defeat me? Dream on! This is you seeking death yourself, so don't blame me.
