The City Governor of Mound Hill City felt a little awkward when he heard Duan Lingtian's question.
After all, he was sure that Duan Lingtian was not a pure human Martial Cultivator since the beginning.
Now that the truth was right in front of him, he had no choice but to believe it.
"Duan Lingtian, can you tell me how you managed to defeat someone with a higher level than you?"
The City Governor of Mound Hill City asked.
Everyone, including the Heavenly Leader Guardian and the Heavenly Hero Guardian, immediately looked at Duan Lingtian with a burning gaze.
They were curious about that as well.
"Master City Governor, you're right about one thing."
Duan Lingtian said to the City Governor of Mound Hill City, "That is … My body is indeed much stronger than an ordinary human."
The City Governor of Mound Hill City's eyes lit up.
"However, the reason why my body is so strong has nothing to do with the Saint Beasts … It's because I had a fortuitous encounter."
Duan Ling Tian finished speaking in one breath, and everyone's eyes lit up.
Many of them were even greedy.
However, Duan Ling Tian's next words dispelled the greed that arose in their hearts.
"That fortuitous encounter was a strange spirit fruit. After I consumed it, I noticed that my body began to transform … After that, I went to that place many times to look for it, but I didn't find that spirit fruit again."
Duan Lingtian continued.
"I can't believe there's such a spirit fruit in this world … It's your fortuitous encounter to be able to obtain it."
The City Governor of Mound Hill City exclaimed.
The others agreed with him.
"Duan Lingtian, you've been hiding it from me for a long time! You were only an Early Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator when you came back with me. "
Lin Qing Rong looked at Duan Lingtian and complained through True Energy Voice Transmission.
"At that time, I don't think I said I wasn't an Early Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator, right? I don't think I said I was an Intermediate Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator either. "
Duan Lingtian shrugged and replied through True Energy Voice Transmission.
"You …"
Lin Qing Rong was speechless.
Now that he thought about it, Duan Lingtian indeed did not say he was not an Early Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator or an Intermediate Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator.
From the very beginning, it seemed that his first impression was the strongest.
"Heavenly Hero Guard, I heard that you were the one who brought the Duan Lingtian back … I will remember your contribution."
The City Governor of Mound Hill City said to Lin Qing Rong after he returned the Body Verification Stone to him.
"City Lord, this is what I should do."
Lin Qing Rong hurriedly said. However, between his brows, there was an unconcealable joy.
"City Lord, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
Lin Qing Rong said again.
"Yes. You may leave. "
The City Governor of Mound Hill City nodded.
After Lin Qing Rong left the meeting hall, the meeting hall regained its peace.
The other eleven of the Thirteen Gangsters were now looking at Duan Lingtian with envy and jealousy.
"To be able to find such a spirit fruit … this Duan Lingtian is ridiculously lucky!"
This was what most people thought.
Of course, there were also people with ugly expressions.
For example, Hou Lin, Zhang Ji Long, and Zheng Jian.
Su Qi, who was standing behind the City Governor of Mound Hill City, glanced at Duan Lingtian nonchalantly before he closed his eyes to rest. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"Back to the topic."
It was only when the City Governor of Mound Hill City spoke again that everyone's gaze shifted away from Duan Lingtian and landed on the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
They knew that the City Governor was going to talk about something serious.
It was not difficult to guess what it was about.
It was nothing more than something related to the test.
The City Governor would select two to three people from the people who achieved excellent results in the test to become his disciples.
At that moment, apart from Duan Lingtian, the rest of the Thirteen Gangsters present were looking forward to it.
"I'll set a test for all of you tomorrow … Tomorrow's test will be a point-based test. The two people with the most points will become my disciples. "
The City Governor of Mound Hill City glanced at the twelve people including Duan Ling Tian. They were the other twelve people in the Thirteen Gangsters apart from Ling Yun.
Many people's breathing quickened when they heard what the City Governor of Mound Hill City said.
"I called all of you here today to inform all of you that you can choose to participate in tomorrow's test on your own or choose to work with others. Of course, you can only work with one person. "
The City Governor of Mound Hill City continued.
"We can even work with others?"
Many people's eyes lit up at once.
However, what the City Governor of Mound Hill City said next made them dumbfounded.
"However, those who work with others have to bring a Latent Dragon Camp member who's not one of the Thirteen Gangsters to participate in the test … Moreover, the points that both of them obtain will be divided into three. They'll each take one share and the rest will go to the Latent Dragon Camp member who's not one of the Thirteen Gangsters."
As soon as the City Governor of Mound Hill City said that, most of them gave up on the idea.
Wasn't this just looking for trouble?
They did not mind working with others …
However, it was difficult for them to accept the fact that they had to share their gains with a burden.
At that moment, more than 90% of them decided to participate in the test on their own.
"Work together?"
When the City Governor of Mound Hill City said that they could work with others to participate in the test, Guo Li's gaze immediately fell on Duan Lingtian. Her eyes were filled with anticipation.
If she worked with Duan Lingtian, her chances would definitely be higher.
However, when the City Governor of Mound Hill City finished speaking, she looked away in disappointment.
She knew that Duan Lingtian would definitely not reject her if she insisted.
However, could she be so selfish?
No!
It would be fine if she only worked with Duan Lingtian and shared the points equally. However, if she wanted to work with Duan Lingtian, she would have to bring a burden with her.
That was not all.
Most importantly, they would have to share the points equally with the burden. Each of them would only get one-third of the total points.
"Guo Li, let's work together."
Just when Guo Li was ready to face the test alone, a voice entered her ears clearly, causing her body to tremble.
Subsequently, she looked at the purple-clad young man who was smiling at her. It was Duan Lingtian whom she had been staring at earlier.
The True Energy Voice Transmission earlier was from Duan Lingtian.
Guo Li snapped back to her senses after a moment of shock.
"Duan Lingtian, I know you mean well … However, I can't drag you down."
Guo Li smiled wryly.
"Drag me down?"
Duan Lingtian smiled.
If Guo Li knew that he was not interested in becoming the disciple of the City Governor of Mound Hill City at all, he wondered what kind of expression she would have.
Although Guo Li had rejected his request, Duan Lingtian did not give up just like that.
"If that's the case, then I'll forfeit and not participate in the test set by Master City Governor."
Duan Lingtian said to Guo Li through True Energy Voice Transmission.
"You …"
Guo Li was speechless when she heard Duan Lingtian's childish words. "Duan Lingtian, stop joking."
"I'm not joking, I'm serious."
Duan Lingtian said with a serious expression.
As time went by, Guo Li realized that Duan Lingtian was not joking.
In the end, she could only compromise and choose to work with Duan Lingtian.
If Duan Lingtian forfeited because of this, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Of course, she knew that Duan Lingtian did everything to help her.
Her heart was filled with gratitude.
After the City Governor of Mound Hill City left with Su Qi, Duan Lingtian and the rest returned to the Latent Dragon Camp.
As for the Heavenly Leader Guardian, he had disappeared when Duan Lingtian and the rest left the meeting hall. No one knew where he went.
However, Duan Lingtian and the rest did not care about the Heavenly Leader Guardian's departure.
The Heavenly Leader Guardian was famous for being elusive.
Therefore, they were used to it.
"Duan Lingtian, if the two of us are working together … we'll need a third person."
Guo Li said to Duan Lingtian through True Energy Voice Transmission on the way.
"Alright."
