"If a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root is allowed to enter the Enforcement Hall, people might think the Enforcement Hall would accept any Tom, Dick, and Harry if this matter spreads out!"
Dong Lin looked at Duan Lingtian disdainfully as he said in front of the Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace, "The reputation of the Enforcement Hall can't be tarnished by a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!
Moreover, if the news of the Enforcement Hall accepting a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root spreads, people would think there's no one in the Zoroastrianism! "
Dong Lin's words conveyed the meaning of the Enforcement Hall's reputation.
The Enforcement Hall valued its reputation and would not accept a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root.
Not only was he doing this for the sake of the Enforcement Hall's reputation, but he was also doing this for the sake of the reputation of the entire Zoroastrianism!
"Yellow Innate Spiritual Root? Mediocre? "
Duan Lingtian thought Dong Lin would come up with an excuse. He did not expect Dong Lin would bring this up. (
)
Was Dong Lin really an elder of the Enforcement Hall?
Logically speaking, shouldn't the people in the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall know he possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root?
Duan Lingtian could not figure this out.
However, based on the current situation, it was obvious Dong Lin did not know he possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Otherwise, he would not have come up with such an excuse to make things difficult for him.
Then, Duan Ling Tian looked at Chen Peng who was standing behind Dong Lin. He noticed there was a hint of gloating in Chen Peng's eyes when he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
'Chen Peng doesn't know I possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root as well?'
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
Previously, Li An's first direct disciple, Wei He, had gone to the Enforcement Hall to accuse the Black Turtle Sanctum's Enforcement Elder, Guo Xiong, of abusing his authority because he did not believe Duan Lingtian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root.
In the end, Wei He was executed for blasphemy against the Enforcement Hall's reputation!
Wei He's death undoubtedly told Li An another truth …
He Duan Lingtian indeed possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root!
"Looks like Chen Peng did not discuss this with Li An before finding trouble with me … Otherwise, he would not have allowed Dong Lin to use such a lousy excuse to make things difficult for me!"
It was not difficult for Duan Lingtian to guess.
'Moreover, it's obvious Dong Lin doesn't know I possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root. It seems like he didn't pay attention to the fact that Chen Peng's Senior Brother, Wei He, was sentenced to death by the Enforcement Hall! Otherwise, it's impossible for him not to know that I possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root. "
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
The truth was just as Duan Lingtian had guessed.
Whether it was Dong Lin or Chen Peng, none of them knew Duan Lingtian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root instead of a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!
The reason Dong Lin did not know Duan Lingtian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root was because he had been away for a long time and had only returned a few days ago. For this reason, he did not have the time to find out about the fact that Chen Peng's Senior Brother, Wei He, was sentenced to death by the Enforcement Hall.
Otherwise, he would have found out Duan Ling Tian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root instead of a yellow Innate Spiritual Root through the files in the Enforcement Hall.
As for Chen Peng, he had only come out of closed-door cultivation recently.
As soon as he came out of closed-door cultivation, he heard that his Great Senior Brother, Wei He, had been indirectly killed by Duan Lingtian.
Coincidentally, Duan Ling Tian had come to the Saint Land and killed the true disciple, Yang Wen. Then, he even suppressed the true disciple, Wen Yan, who was stronger than him. Not only that, but he had also ruthlessly humiliated her.
At that time, Chen Peng realized it was impossible.
It was difficult for him to avenge his Senior Brother with his own strength.
Coincidentally, he had also heard that Duan Lingtian wanted to be assigned to the Enforcement Hall.
He immediately went to the Enforcement Hall to look for Dong Lin who had just returned to the Zoroastrianism Sect. He asked Dong Lin for help in rejecting Duan Lingtian from being assigned to the Enforcement Hall.
He had already thought of an excuse. He would use Duan Lingtian's yellow Innate Spiritual Root as an excuse.
For this reason, the scene in the Fire Remuneration Palace had unfolded.
"Elder Dong Lin, if you really want to say this, it's a good excuse. After all, from the Hall Master and Vice Hall Master to the Bronze Flame Elder and true disciples, there seems to be no one with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root in the Enforcement Hall!"
Many Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace muttered among themselves.
They knew Dong Lin was looking for an excuse. However, they could not find any fault with the excuse he came up with.
After all, this matter did not affect the Zoroastrianism Sect since they knew about Duan Lingtian's strength. Even if they knew Duan Lingtian only possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, they would not be surprised if he was assigned to the Enforcement Hall.
However, the people outside the Enforcement Hall did not know Duan Lingtian at all.
In their opinion, this was not the case at all.
If the Zoroastrianism Enforcement Hall accepted someone with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, it was undoubtedly because there was no one else in the Zoroastrianism Sect.
If news of this spread out, the entire Zoroastrianism Sect would be humiliated!
"You can't say that."
Naturally, many Saint Land disciples stood up for Duan Lingtian.
"Although Elder Dong Lin has a point, there's always an exception! Although Duan Lingtian only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, his strength is stronger than most of the Bronze Flame Elders and true disciples of the Zoroastrianism Sect! "
"If such a person isn't qualified to be assigned to the Enforcement Hall, who else is?"
Many Saint Land disciples looked at Dong Lin with dissatisfaction and hatred in their eyes. They felt Dong Lin had crossed the line.
"Although that's the case, it's a fact that Duan Lingtian only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. Naturally, we Zoroastrianism believe in Duan Lingtian's deeds. However, if news of this spread out, most people won't believe it! "
A Saint Land disciple said.
"That's right. Even if news of Duan Lingtian joining the Zoroastrianism spreads out, it's unlikely that people will believe it. They'll only think it's fake news made up by the Zoroastrianism Sect! "
"That's true. For this reason, even if Elder Dong Lin uses this as an excuse to reject Duan Lingtian from being assigned to the Enforcement Hall, the Enforcement Hall might not accept it even if Duan Lingtian goes to the Enforcement Hall and accuses Elder Dong Lin of abusing his power for personal gain! "
"To a certain extent, Elder Dong Lin has some 'reason' in this matter … Of course, anyone can see that he did it on purpose! However, so what? After all, Duan Lingtian only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root! "
"If Duan Lingtian did not possess a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, this wouldn't have happened. In the end, it's all because his Innate Spiritual Root's grade is too low."
…
The group of Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace discussed among themselves.
Many of them shook their heads as they looked at Duan Lingtian. It was as though they felt sorry for Duan Lingtian.
"However, Duan Ling Tian is already so strong even though he only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. In the history of the Fire Worship Sect, there's no one like him who has such a strong Innate Spiritual Root.
One of the Saint Land disciples could not help but exclaim.
"It's not just Zoroastrianism! Even in the history of the Dao Martial Saint Land since ancient times, I've never heard of someone like Duan Ling Tian! "
"Duan Lingtian only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root, and his cultivation base is only at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage. However, he's able to kill a powerhouse at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and defeat an elite powerhouse at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He's indeed unprecedented in the Dao Martial Saint Land!"
"He's really a genius! Although God gave Duan Lingtian a peerless innate talent in comprehending Divine Abilities, he forgot to give him an innate talent in cultivation. That's why he only possesses a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!"
"A yellow Innate Spiritual Root is considered a good Innate Spiritual Root in the outside world. However, in Zoroastrianism, people with yellow Innate Spiritual Roots are everywhere! It's not worth mentioning at all! "
…
No matter what, many Saint Land disciples were still amazed by Duan Lingtian's current strength even though he only possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root.
Naturally, in the opinion of these Saint Land disciples, Duan Lingtian's future was limited.
Moreover, Duan Lingtian's cultivation base might remain at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage for the rest of his life!
"Duan Lingtian!"
At the same time, Dong Lin looked at Duan Lingtian again and said mockingly, "Now, do you still think I'm abusing my authority for personal gain?"
Dong Lin's attitude was haughty and condescending.
It was as though Duan Ling Tian was just an ant in his eyes that he could trample on!
"Don't tell me you still don't know whether you're abusing your authority for personal gain?"
Duan Lingtian sneered, unwilling to be outdone.
"What? Even now, you're still not convinced? "
The mocking smile on Dong Lin's face deepened. "Don't tell me I didn't make myself clear earlier? You're just a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. If you enter the Enforcement Hall, not only will you embarrass the Enforcement Hall, but you'll also embarrass Zoroastrianism!
Don't tell me you're willing to embarrass Zoroastrianism in front of outsiders for your own selfish desires? "
When Dong Lin reached the end of his sentence, he invisibly labeled Duan Lingtian as someone who was willing to embarrass Zoroastrianism.
"Are … Are you done?"
No matter what Dong Lin said, Duan Lingtian's expression remained calm. It was as though Dong Lin's words did not affect him at all.
"What? Don't tell me you're going to continue after I've finished speaking? What are you going to say? Are you going to say that you're not inferior to most of the true disciples? "
Dong Lin was, naturally, displeased when he saw Duan Lingtian's calm expression. He could not help but scoff.
"Don't forget, the people outside are not like our own people in Zoroastrianism. They won't believe a mediocre person with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root like you has the strength to be ranked in the top ten of the True Ranking!"
Dong Lin's words were impeccable.
