"Thank you Patriarch for your teachings!" Ye Wen nodded. He knew that the Patriarch was just comforting him. However, he was still disappointed in his heart.
After all, it wasn't easy for him to reach this step. Although he didn't have to become the Patriarch's direct disciple, if he could become the Patriarch's direct disciple, it would definitely be better than nothing.
Originally, he was already very close to this position. However, he didn't expect that he would still miss it in the end.
He knew that even if he passed this round of assessment, the Patriarch might not choose him to become a direct disciple. However, he didn't pass this round of assessment. He really didn't have any chance.
"Bai Zhengqi's injuries aren't light. He might not be able to continue with the assessment today. Everyone, come back tomorrow!" Cheng Yu checked Bai Zhengqi's injuries. Although it wasn't fatal, it was indeed quite serious.
However, if he were to use the god water, a night's time was enough for him to recover
"Patriarch, are we going to return to our main peak now?" someone asked.
Those who wish to continue the competition or want to watch the later competition can continue to stay here to watch and learn. Those who do not wish to continue the competition or do not wish to watch the competition can leave the back of the mountain and return to your main peak. Cheng Yu said.
"Patriarch, we wish to stay and watch the competition." A lot of people said.
This was indeed a very good learning opportunity. It was also a chance to understand the strength of others.
Although everyone was from the same sect, it wasn't always the time to understand the strength of others. Furthermore, to be able to watch the exciting battles between experts of this level was a rare learning opportunity.
"Since all of you are willing to stay, then you can temporarily choose to return to your temporary cave residence. Come back tomorrow at the same time!" Cheng Yu nodded.
Cultivation wasn't just about blindly cultivating. Watching other people's battles was also very helpful to one's own cultivation.
Sometimes, when one encountered a bottleneck, if one was able to see the results of others' cultivation, it might give one some new inspiration. It was very possible for one to break through the bottleneck.
"Many thanks, Patriarch!" Everyone was overjoyed. Most of them had already dispersed. There was still a portion of them who stayed behind to continue discussing the battle between Ye Wen and Bai Zhengqi.
Because their one-year cultivation period had already ended. If the Patriarch didn't allow them to stay, they could only leave.
But now that the Patriarch didn't chase them away, how could they take the initiative to leave?
After all, there were so many exciting matches waiting for them. They wanted to see who could become the direct disciple of the Patriarch before leaving.
Moreover, their cultivation had already ended. Most of them didn't pass the first round of assessment, so they didn't need to work so hard to cultivate.
Furthermore, the earlier battle between Bai Zhengqi and Ye Wen was very exciting. Everyone was reminiscing about this battle.
If they were Bai Zhengqi or Ye Wen, what would the result of this match be?
As for those who were qualified to participate in the second round of assessment, although they also felt that the upcoming battle with Bai Zhengqi might not be so easy, they did not intend to give up.
Regardless of whether they won or lost, they wanted to give it another try. Even if they lost, they wouldn't lose anything. At the very least, they could test how much stronger Bai Zhengqi was compared to them.
However, even if they knew that they might not be Bai Zhengqi's opponent, they still hoped to fight hard. Therefore, they had to go back and practice. Even if it was only for one night, they had to persist until the end.
Most importantly, now that Bai Zhengqi had suffered such heavy injuries, one night might not be enough for him to recover.
Therefore, they still had a chance. How could these people dare to give up so easily?
Perhaps, because of this night, their fate would be rewritten. As long as they could become the direct disciple of the Patriarch, they would be able to achieve meteoric success.
"Ye Wen suffered from the backlash of his energy. He shouldn't move around casually. Everyone, don't disturb him. Let him recover here.
As for Bai Zhengqi, he will be recuperating in my temporary cave dwelling! "Cheng Yu spoke to Bai Zhengqi.
"Yes!" Bai Zhengqi nodded.
Although he had already acknowledged Cheng Yu as his teacher, in front of so many people, he still couldn't reveal this news.
Furthermore, he knew that the reason why his teacher brought him here was to let him prove to everyone, giving him a chance to become the direct disciple of the Patriarch.
"I feel that the Patriarch is really too good to Bai Zhengqi. He can even go to the Patriarch's cave dwelling to recuperate. I believe that the Patriarch will personally help him recuperate," When they saw Bai Zhengqi leaving with the Patriarch, someone said enviously.
"That's for sure. With Bai Zhengqi's injuries today, if it wasn't for the Patriarch's help, how could he possibly recover in a single night!" Someone felt that it was natural.
After all, everyone had personally witnessed Bai Zhengqi suffering such heavy injuries. Therefore, for the Patriarch to personally help Bai Zhengqi to recuperate wasn't anything strange.
"If it's just to recuperate, then it's fine. Do you think that the Patriarch would secretly pass on his cultivation to Bai Zhengqi?" Someone guessed.
"How is that possible? Why would the Patriarch do this? "
"Perhaps, the Patriarch really doesn't wish for us to become his direct disciple. Therefore, he can't let Bai Zhengqi lose!"
"That's impossible. Do you think that the Patriarch would be like you, treating his words as a joke? If the Patriarch doesn't wish for us to become his direct disciple, he can just say it directly.
Furthermore, the Patriarch had already said from the start that if we are able to satisfy him, then we will naturally have the chance to become his direct disciple.
But if we are unable to satisfy him, none of us will be able to become his direct disciple. Therefore, this matter is something that the Patriarch can decide on his own. What reason does he have to do such a meaningless thing that will cause him to lose his prestige? "
"That's right. The Patriarch is an open and aboveboard person. If he has something to say, he would say it directly. He would never use such a despicable method.
If it were really like this, wouldn't it be embarrassing if word of this got out? Can the Patriarch afford to lose face like this? "
Seeing someone speculate on the Patriarch's thoughts, many people felt dissatisfied in their hearts.
In their hearts, the Patriarch was not only their spiritual pillar of support, he was also their idol.
Furthermore, after so many years, they all knew that the Patriarch was an open and aboveboard person. Even if he had something to say, he would tell everyone in advance. He wouldn't use such despicable methods behind their backs.
"I was wrong. Perhaps I was really thinking too much," Seeing so many people criticizing him, he was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He quickly apologized to everyone.
"Today, everyone saw Bai Zhengqi's strength. Although the majority of the battle between him and Ye Wen was Ye Wen taking the initiative to attack and Bai Zhengqi defending, Bai Zhengqi was able to receive Ye Wen's attack. This is enough to prove that Bai Zhengqi's strength is already very impressive.
Therefore, as long as Bai Zhengqi can recover from his injuries, even without the Patriarch's help, his strength is enough to crush us.
How many people do you think will be able to pass tomorrow's test? "Someone said.
Today, Bai Zhengqi's performance left a deep impression in everyone's hearts. Many people were even frightened by him.
"I think it's a mystery. Originally, I thought that even if Bai Zhengqi's talent is not bad, there should still be many among us who can defeat him.
However, from the looks of it now, I'm afraid that we will all be wiped out! "Someone said.
"There is indeed this possibility. However, if that is really the case, then us fifty thousand people are really embarrassing."
"That's right. Everyone knows that us fifty thousand people represent the most outstanding disciples of the Cheng Clan. Therefore, we were chosen by the Patriarch. Furthermore, under the Patriarch's guidance and explanation, we cultivated in the forbidden area of the back mountains for a year.
Who knows how many people are endlessly envious of us. They think that from now on, our strength will definitely rise by several levels.
In reality, our strength is indeed much stronger than when we came here a year ago.
However, this Bai Zhengqi is truly not a simple person. Although he didn't have the opportunity to come here with us and receive the Patriarch's guidance and explanation, his strength has risen faster than us.
I really can't imagine what this guy has been doing outside for a year. How did he do it? "Some people were too confused about this.
"I feel that this might not be as simple as we think it is. If this Bai Zhengqi really had some miraculous method to raise his strength so much in such a short period of time, he would have used it long ago. Why would he wait until now?" Someone said.
"Then, how do you think he obtained his current strength?"
"I always feel that all of this seems to be related to the Patriarch. Think about it. Since the Patriarch let Bai Zhengqi be our assessment standard, it can be seen that the Patriarch knows Bai Zhengqi's strength like the back of his hand.
Therefore, the Patriarch definitely didn't think of finding Bai Zhengqi all of a sudden. Perhaps in this one year, Bai Zhengqi has also been receiving pointers and answers from the Patriarch. It's just that he's not with us! "Someone speculated.
"But last year, the Patriarch clearly eliminated Bai Zhengqi in front of everyone. Now, if he is secretly cultivating Bai Zhengqi, what is going on?"
"Don't forget, Bai Zhengqi has feelings for the Eldest Miss. Although I haven't seen the Eldest Miss for a long time, I think if the Eldest Miss knew that Bai Zhengqi was eliminated by the Patriarch, she would definitely not let it go.
Therefore, it must be the Eldest Miss who came forward to persuade the Patriarch. Therefore, after the Patriarch gave us the Cultivation Method, he also gave it to Bai Zhengqi a few days later. "That person continued to say.
"En, what you said also makes sense. If this is really the case, the reason why Bai Zhengqi was able to improve so much in a short period of a year is that he really received the Patriarch's help." When everyone heard that this matter seemed to be related to the Eldest Miss, they thought about it again and felt that it did make some sense.
