Hearing the sounds coming from outside, Duan Lingtian was a bit stunned.
Listening to the conversations of those people outside, he had a rough idea of their intentions. At the same time, he realized that they had been waiting outside for half a month to invite him to see their Honorable Masters.
Their Honorable Masters wanted to receive him as a disciple.
"Should I have removed the array formation?"
Just as Duan Lingtian had this thought, there was a sudden cry of alarm from outside. "Duan Lingtian removed the array formation! He's coming out! "
"It's true!"
"Duan Lingtian, I am the second disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect's Highest Elder Huang Pingyi, Xu He. My Honorable Master, Highest Elder Huang Pingyi, wishes to invite you to his cultivation place as a guest."
"Duan Lingtian, I am the eldest disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect's Protector Liu Gangxuan, Lin Chongyu. My Honorable Master, Protector Liu Gangxuan, wishes to invite you to his residence as a guest."
…
As soon as the people outside discovered that Duan Lingtian had removed the array formation, there was an uproar.
Highest Elder?
Protector?
Duan Lingtian was shocked.
It had to be known that in the Hidden Fog Sect, there weren't many Highest Elders. Moreover, the status of a Highest Elder was above that of the 19 core Elders, including the Second Elder.
In addition, the Hidden Fog Sect's 19 Protectors had a status above the Second Elder and the other core Elders. They were equal to the Vice Sect Master.
Among the Highest Protectors, there were several whose status in the Hidden Fog Sect faintly surpassed that of the Sect Master.
They were also the strongest people in the Hidden Fog Sect.
And now, several people casually stood out and said they were disciples of the Highest Elders and Protectors? Moreover, the Highest Elders and Protectors were inviting him to be a guest?
Although Duan Lingtian knew the purpose of this invitation, he was still surprised.
He thought he was low-key enough, but he never imagined that the tip of the iceberg he revealed would attract the attention of so many high level figures of the Hidden Fog Sect.
They actually sent disciples to invite him, intending to accept him as a disciple.
Whoosh!
In the end, Duan Lingtian did not open the array disc again. Instead, he walked out of the room and appeared in front of the group of people outside.
"He's out!"
"Duan Lingtian, I am the son of Grand Elder Wu He, Wu Qiong. My father wishes to take you as his disciple. Are you willing to go? My father said that if you are willing to become his disciple, he will definitely not treat you unfairly. Your treatment will not be worse than mine! "
"Duan Lingtian, I am He Chai, the second disciple of Grand Elder Liu Hugui. My master also wants to accept you as a disciple. My master has prepared three Cultivation Pills for you as a meeting gift."
"Duan Lingtian, I am the fourth disciple of Protector Zhao Buyi, Ouyang Quan. My master said that if you are willing to become his disciple, he will get you nine Revival Pills within a year and help you become a Divine King!"
…
Outside the door, there were young men, middle-aged men, and several young women. At the start, they only sent out invitations to Duan Lingtian, inviting him to be a guest.
But as some people stated their intentions, others couldn't sit still any longer.
Each and every one of them was increasing the price tag.
There were even some people who said that they would help Duan Lingtian gather nine Revival Pills within half a year. This caused Duan Lingtian to be moved, but it was only moved.
"Everyone."
Finally, it was Duan Lingtian who spoke up, interrupting everyone's chatter. "I, Duan Lingtian, entered the Hidden Fog Sect and have no intention of becoming a disciple of any Elder or Protector. So, I'm afraid I will have to disappoint all the Elders and Protectors here.
"I entered the Hidden Fog Sect in order to enter the Great Dragon Sect."
Duan Lingtian directly rejected everyone present. "So, I'm afraid I will have to let everyone down for waiting here … I apologize."
After saying this, Duan Lingtian cupped his hands towards everyone.
For a time, many people sighed and left.
There were also some people who stayed where they were, wanting to continue negotiating with Duan Lingtian. But, they were destined to return disappointed.
Finally, with a small number of unwilling people following him, Duan Lingtian went to the inner sect's' Internal Affairs Hall '. He looked at the ranking of the last Stairway to Heaven competition he participated in.
Without any surprise, he was the number one disciple of the Divine Spirit Realm in the Stairway to Heaven competition.
In fact, before this result came out, anyone who paid attention to the Stairway to Heaven competition would know that he was the number one disciple of the Divine Spirit Realm.
After all, it had been a long time since a Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciple had reached the ninth step.
"It's Duan Lingtian!"
"He is Duan Lingtian? The number one disciple of the Divine Spirit Realm in the Stairway to Heaven competition? "
"That's him! It is said that he is not even 3000 years old. He was recommended to enter the sect by Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy's Dean and our Hidden Fog Sect's Vice Sect Leader, Murong Suifeng. "
"It's rare to see such a strong 'backdoor entrant' … Vice Sect Leader Murong either doesn't use his privileges or uses them to recruit talents for the sect. He is really good to the sect."
"Isn't that right? Besides the Grand Elders and the Sect Leader, the person I admire the most is Vice Sect Leader Murong. "
…
When Duan Ling Tian arrived at the Internal Affairs Palace, some of the inner sect disciples in the Internal Affairs Palace recognized him. Instantly, the surroundings became lively.
Listening to the whispers of the inner sect disciples, Duan Lingtian could tell that Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy's Dean Murong had a good reputation in the sect.
"Everyone, can you tell me where I can receive the reward for the Stairway to Heaven competition?"
Duan Lingtian smiled as he looked at the crowd. When they heard his question, they immediately gave him directions. This allowed Duan Lingtian to receive the reward for the first place in the Stairway to Heaven competition in a short period of time.
A Revival Pill.
Then, Duan Lingtian prepared to return.
But at this time, someone called out to him. "Duan Lingtian!"
The one who called out to Duan Lingtian was a chubby inner sect disciple. His fat face that almost completely covered his eyes was particularly eye-catching. "You will participate in the core disciple assessment soon … Are you confident?"
"You should know that in the history of our Hidden Fog Sect, it was only ten thousand years ago that a Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciple passed the core disciple assessment."
"And in the past hundred years, let alone a Divine Spirit Realm inner sect disciple, there hasn't even been a Divine King Realm inner sect disciple who passed the core disciple assessment."
As the chubby man spoke, curious gazes fell on Duan Lingtian.
It was clear that they wanted to see how Duan Lingtian would respond.
Duan Lingtian turned around and looked at the chubby man. He faintly smiled and said, "I will do my best and strive to become the first person in ten thousand years to do so."
As his voice fell, he didn't wait for the chubby man and the others to respond and left the Internal Affairs Hall.
For a time, the Internal Affairs Hall was in an uproar. "Listening to Duan Lingtian's words, it seems that … he is confident?"
"This is really exciting … If he really passes the core disciple assessment, he will become the first Divine Spirit Realm core disciple in our Hidden Fog Sect in ten thousand years."
"I can't wait for the core disciple assessment to arrive."
…
News of what happened in the Internal Affairs Hall quickly spread. Before long, more than half of the Hidden Fog Sect knew that Duan Lingtian was confident in the upcoming core disciple assessment.
"He's actually that confident?"
When Tang Wuyan received the news, she happened to be with her Granduncle Tang Chun. When Tang Chun heard her muttering, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
When he heard what happened from Tang Wuyan, he couldn't help but laugh. "That kid might really be able to pass the core disciple assessment."
"Granduncle, you're that confident in him?"
Tang Wuyan was surprised. "The strength he has shown so far isn't enough for him to pass the core disciple assessment, right? Unless he's hiding his strength! "
"Granduncle, do you know that he's hiding his strength?"
Tang Wuyan asked.
Tang Chun shook his head.
Although he was the one who brought Duan Lingtian back, he didn't know whether Duan Lingtian had shown his full strength or not.
However, this didn't affect his confidence in Duan Lingtian.
"Then why are you so confident in him?"
Tang Wuyan asked.
"Maybe it's his personal charisma … If someone else said what he said, I would think they were arrogant, but when he said it, I think it's confidence. “
Tang Chun smiled and looked at Tang Wuyan ambiguously. "Wuyan, I heard that you went to see Duan Lingtian when he participated in the Stairway Competition last time?"
"You, did you go there specifically for him?"
Tang Chun's gaze made Tang Wuyan speechless for a while. "Granduncle, I didn't go there for him. I originally planned to participate in the Stairway to Heaven myself, but he suddenly wanted to go to the Ultimate Martial Platform with Qi Yu, so I followed him."
"After their battle ended, I returned to the Stairway to Heaven and entered it."
Although Tang Wuyan was explaining with a straight face, Tang Chun was looking at her even more dubiously. "I know … It's normal for girls to be shy."
Tang Wuyan stopped talking after hearing that. She was speechless.
However, after hearing Tang Chun's words, she couldn't help but recall that purple figure in her mind, lingering for a long time. "Since when … did I care so much about a man?"
"Moreover, it's a man who already has a wife and children."
Tang Wuyan tried her best to get rid of the purple figure in her mind, but the more she tried, the clearer the figure became. When his face appeared, she found her heart throbbing for a moment.
…
"What nonsense!"
Tu Feng's face was full of disdain when he heard what Duan Lingtian said in the Internal Affairs Hall. "Who does he think he is? How dare he say he's going to be the first disciple in the Realm of Gods to pass the core disciple assessment in 10,000 years? "
"Even if the core disciple assessment for the Divine Spirit Realm is easier than the core disciple assessment for the Divine King Realm, it's still not something a Divine Spirit can pass."
"He wants to be the second Xue Haichuan? He's overestimating himself! "
Tu Feng didn't think the young man who was on his must-kill list could pass the core disciple assessment for the Divine Spirit Realm. He had participated in the assessment before, so he knew how difficult it was.
