"Vice Fort Master Ning, I'm truly sorry … I'm unwilling."
Under the gazes of everyone present, Duan Lingtian spoke slowly and replied to Ning Can's question.
For a time, many people present felt their scalps go numb.
This Duan Lingtian actually dared to refuse!
"Good, good … Good!"
Ning Can took a deep breath and successively said the word 'good' three times, and then he asked with a low voice in the end. "So in this way, you've already taken Sword 13 as your master?"
As far as he was concerned, there was surely a reason why Sword 13 said he didn't have the qualifications to take Duan Lingtian as his disciple.
The most likely reason was that Sword 13 had already taken Duan Lingtian as his disciple.
"Ning Can!"
Duan Lingtian hadn't spoken when Sword 13 had already looked at Ning Can. "You wouldn't be thinking that I took Duan Lingtian as my disciple first, and that's why I ridiculed you for not having the qualifications to take him as your disciple, right?"
"Hmph!"
Ning Can grunted coldly, and he'd obviously tacitly agreed.
"Then I'm afraid you'll be disappointed … I, Sword 13, feel that I'm just like you, and I don't have the qualifications to take Duan Lingtian as my personal disciple."
Sword 13 continued.
Whoosh!
Sword 13's words were like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, and it caused everyone present to be in an uproar.
Sword 13, an expert from a power of the Foreign Lands, the Blade Sect, that wasn't inferior to Skywolf Fort, and an existence that was on par with Ning Can and Feng Wei, the two Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort, had actually publicly said that he didn't have the qualifications to take Duan Lingtian as his disciple!
Who was Duan Lingtian?
He was merely a young genius from a Dynasty, so on what basis was he able to make Sword 13 speak such words?
Besides Su Li, most people were deeply puzzled.
Only Su Li knew very clearly what his master was thinking in his heart. Because the reason his master would say this was entirely because he'd told his master about Duan Lingtian's origins.
Duan Lingtian was just like him, and he was from a kingdom under an Imperial Kingdom under the command of an Empire under the command of the Darkhan Dynasty.
A kingdom was one of the lowest and most remote subordinate kingdoms under the Darkhan Dynasty.
Not to mention the Foreign Lands, even if it was in the Darkhan Dynasty, in the eyes of the members of the Darkhan Dynasty, that tiny Kingdom was no different than a remote village.
And it was this youth who had walked out of a remote and desolate village. Step by step, he had carved out a path that belonged to him and possessed the astonishing strength he had today.
According to Jian Shisan's guess, there were only two possibilities for Duan Lingtian to have such achievements in such a short period of time.
Firstly, Duan Ling Tian had a master with an extraordinary background, and his master ought to be a powerhouse with a terrifying strength.
Secondly, Duan Lingtian did not have a master. He had relied on himself and the various fortuitous encounters along the way.
No matter what it was, as far as Sword 13 was concerned, Ning Can didn't have the qualifications to be Duan Lingtian's master.
Because even if Duan Lingtian was taken as a personal disciple by Ning Can when he was young, Duan Lingtian might not possess his current strength.
Moreover, according to his knowledge, Duan Lingtian had grasped a secret technique that utilized Spiritual Force to execute, and it was an ability that even a Martial Monarch Realm expert might not be able to come into contact with.
Not to mention Ning Can, even a Martial Monarch Realm expert was unable to teach Duan Lingtian this.
"I really never imagined that you, Sword 13, would give such a high evaluation to a little kid."
Ning Can laughed coldly, yet his expression eased up slightly. To a certain extent, these words of Sword 13 could be considered to have given him a way out of this embarrassing situation.
After he glanced indifferently at Duan Lingtian, Ning Can didn't say anything further. Because he knew that no matter what he said, Ning Can would only bring shame to himself in the end.
Of course, in his heart, he wished for nothing more than to tear Duan Lingtian into pieces before burning his bones and scattering his ashes.
But he knew that for the sake of the face of Skywolf Fort and coupled with the presence of Sword 13 and Saber 5, these two experts of the Blade Sect that caused him to be extremely fearful, he couldn't act rashly.
In his eyes, Duan Lingtian was only an ant, and it wouldn't be too late to think of a way to kill Duan Lingtian after the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties ended.
Moreover, who could guarantee that Duan Lingtian would be able to survive the selections after the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties?
"The first round of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties has come to an end! We'll still gather here at dawn tomorrow. At that time, I'll lead all of you to the location of the second round of the selections. "
Ning Can glanced at the remaining 50 young geniuses and spoke slowly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished on the spot and left.
"Hmph!"
Feng Wei's gaze that was filled with killing intent flashed towards Duan Lingtian like a blade, and he grunted coldly before bringing along the personal disciple he'd just taken today, Lu Yong, to leave and enter the inner fort of Skywolf Fort.
As they looked at Lu Yong's disappearing figure, most of the young geniuses of the ten Dynasties couldn't help but reveal envious expressions.
The representative of the Darming Dynasty this time, the Zhao Clan's Elder Qian, revealed a rare trace of a smile.
Their Darming Dynasty's Crown Prince being able to become the personal disciple of the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort was extremely beneficial to their Darkhan Dynasty.
"Wei Yi, perform well in the selections later on … You might not have the chance to take the other Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort as your master. Based on the current situation, Vice Fort Master Feng is only an ordinary Vice Fort Master, and even Vice Fort Master Ning's status is higher than his. "
After Elder Qian noticed Zhao Wei Yi by his side had a gloomy expression, he guessed what Zhao Wei Yi was thinking, and he consoled. "Moreover, don't forget that the person with the highest status in Skywolf Fort isn't those few Vice Fort Masters, and it's that elusive Fort Master instead!"
Zhao Wei Yi's dim gaze finally had a sheen when he heard this, and there was slight firmness on his face.
But when his gaze inadvertently descended onto the violet clothed young man in the distance, his expression couldn't help but become gloomy.
He wasn't unfamiliar with the violet clothed young man, and it was even to the extent that the violet clothed young man had once caused him to suffer great humiliation.
To the two of them, the violet clothed young man defeating him in the ninth floor of the Iceflame Pavilion with that unfathomable and bizarre ability was the greatest humiliation he'd suffered in his entire lifetime.
When he thought of how the violet clothed young man refused to take Vice Fort Master Ning as his master, his expression became even more unsightly.
The Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort that Duan Lingtian disdained to take as his master just so happened to be the person he dreamt of taking as his master!
For a time, indescribable bitterness arose in his heart.
At this instant, he suddenly felt that Duan Lingtian who'd always been ahead of him seemed to have left him further and further behind, and it caused him to be unable to catch up.
"Could it be that I, Zhao Wei Yi, am unable to defeat him in my entire lifetime and wash away my humiliation? No! I'm unwilling! "
Zhao Wei Yi ceaselessly roared with unwillingness in his heart.
"I truly never imagined that a day would pass just like this."
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed as he looked at the sunset in the horizon. Within the Illusory Purgatory, there was no distinction between day and night, so he was unable to sense the changes in the color of the sky.
After the first round of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties ended, an entire day had unknowingly passed.
"Let's go have a meal."
Duan Lingtian looked at the group of people by his side and suggested.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian was deeply afraid Sword 13 would refuse, so his gaze directly descended onto Sword 13. "Senior, come with us as well."
To Chen Xi's surprise, Sword 13 didn't refuse.
It was even to the extent that even Saber 5 and Long Yun had come along to freeload, and this caused Duan Lingtian to be speechless. Why are these master and disciple so thick-skinned?
After Duan Lingtian's group left, the representatives and young geniuses of the various Dynasties in the sky above the combat arena finally made a move.
Some of them helped the 10 elders of Skywolf Fort clean up the corpses on the combat arena, whereas, the remaining people either headed out of Skywolf Fort or returned to the pavilions arranged for them in Skywolf Fort.
"Exactly what did that Duan Lingtian rely on to obtain such high acknowledgement from that expert from the Blade Sect?"
"Yeah, that expert from the Blade Sect is obviously an expert at the same level as Vice Fort Master Ning and Vice Fort Master Feng, yet he actually said that he didn't have the qualifications to take Duan Lingtian as his disciple. It's truly unbelievable."
"Perhaps that expert from the Blade Sect is deliberately mystifying things."
…
Duan Lingtian that was well known by all the representatives and young geniuses of the various Dynasties two days ago had once again become the center of their heated discussions.
Skywolf Fort, Inner Fort.
"Martial Uncle, that Duan Lingtian was so presumptuous before you today. Could it be that we're just going to let it go like this?"
In the spacious courtyard, Feng Wei frowned as he asked Ning Can.
Ning Can's eyes narrowed as a strand of cold light flashed within them. "Then what do you think I should do? Directly make a move and kill him? Not to mention that Sword 13 would stop me, even if I really killed him, what would the people outside say? "
"Would they say that I, the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Ning Can, wanted to take a young man as my personal disciple, and because I was rejected by the young man, I became enraged from embarrassment and relied on my strength to bully the young man before killing the young man?"
As he finished speaking, Ning Can grunted coldly with a deep voice.
"Could it be that we're just going to let this matter go like this?"
Feng Wei's eyes flickered with cold lights as he spoke with an unwilling expression. "He treated Martial Uncle like that, and he undoubtedly didn't take our Skywolf Fort seriously … I'm unwilling to let him off just like this!"
"Let him off? How could that be possible!? "
Ning Can sneered.
"Then what Martial Uncle means is?"
Feng Wei's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Don't forget that there are still three more selections after the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties … Go tell that personal disciple you've just taken that so long as he's able to kill that Duan Lingtian and avenge me, his Martial Ancestral Uncle, I'll give him an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment!"
Ning Can spoke out.
Eighth level Fire Concept Fragment!
Feng Wei couldn't help but gasp when Ning Can said this.
Even though he'd given a third level Fire Concept Fragment to his personal disciple he'd just taken, it was like the difference between the heavens and the earth when compared to the eighth level Fire Concept Fragment in his Martial Uncle's possession.
A third level Fire Concept Fragment was only able to assist a martial artist that had comprehended Fire Concept to swiftly advance his Fire Concept to the third level Advanced Fire Concept.
When the martial artist comprehended third level Advanced Fire Concept, the third level Fire Concept Fragment would transform into powder and vanish.
Cultivating in the future required one to rely on one's own comprehension or find an even higher level Fire Concept Fragment.
Whereas an eighth level Fire Concept Fragment was sufficient to allow a martial artist that had comprehended Fire Concept to swiftly advance his Fire Concept to the eighth level Advanced Fire Concept in a short period of time!
