Frowning, Xie Zhe said, "I'll give you another chance."
That person took a horse stance again, formed a hand seal, and pushed forward again. However, the result was the same as before.
"Teacher, I can really activate the curse. Please give me another chance. I must have been too nervous," the person said hurriedly.
Unexpectedly, Xie Zhe said coldly, "There's no need to try again."
"I … I can really do it." That person was so anxious that he was about to cry.
"So what if you could activate the curse before? If you can't activate it now, it means that your foundation is not solid. I, Xie Zhe, will not accept such a disciple. Go back and practice again." Xie Zhe frowned.
Hearing this, that person did not dare to say anything. He could only walk out dejectedly.
"Next."
…
After a while, it was Linlong's turn.
Linlong naturally stood at that position. However, he did not take a horse stance like the others. Instead, he formed a hand seal and pushed forward with both hands.
This kid definitely can't activate the curse. Du Haoran, who was staring at Linlong, cursed in his heart.
Because of Lin Long, he was almost arrested yesterday and didn't sleep well the whole night. Naturally, he hated Lin Long to the core.
However, what made him depressed was that after Linlong pushed out with both hands, runes formed into his hand seal and disappeared in front of him. This meant that Linlong could activate the rune curse.
"Not bad, not bad." Xie Zhe nodded, and a smile appeared on his face.
Linlong could activate the curse without taking a horse stance. This could only mean that Linlong's foundation was better than those who did. Xie Zhe was naturally happy.
It's just not taking a horse stance. I, Du Haoran, can do it too! Du Haoran thought.
After a while, it was Du Haoran's turn.
In order to compete with Linlong, Du Haoran did not take a horse stance. Instead, he formed a hand seal and pushed forward like Linlong.
However, what made his face turn ugly was that the runes did not form into a hand seal.
It was obvious that he had failed.
Such a failure made him break out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly said, "Teacher, I made a mistake. Can you give me another chance?"
"Sure," Xie Zhe said expressionlessly.
He naturally knew that Du Haoran was Du Meng's son.
This time, Du Haoran didn't dare to imitate Linlong. Instead, he took a firm horse stance and pushed out with both hands.
What made him heave a sigh of relief was that in the next moment, the runes formed into a handprint.
"Phew …" He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Yes, not bad." Xie Zhe nodded.
Soon after, the next person came up. It took quite some time before everyone was assessed.
Out of more than fifty people, more than thirty people had been eliminated. In other words, only twenty people had become Xie Zhe's disciples. One could imagine how difficult it was to master the rune curse seal.
"Alright, from now on, you are my disciples," Xie Zhe said.
After a slight pause, he continued, "In order to verify your strength, I will hold a martial arts competition today, allowing you new disciples to learn from each other."
Spar? Du Haoran's eyes lit up as he thought of something.
He stared at Lin Long and said, "Brat, I will definitely find a chance to deal with you later."
He realized that Linlong's Rune Curse was not strong, so he naturally had such an idea.
Then, Xie Zhe brought them to the martial arts field at the side.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Du Haoran went to one of the two young men who were recruiting yesterday and asked in a low voice, "Senior Brother Mo Jian, is that brat's Rune Curse powerful?"
As he spoke, he pointed at Linlong.
"That brat's Rune Curse is very ordinary. That's why he could use it so casually just now," Mo Jian said.
With his experience and strength, he could naturally see how powerful Ambassador Lin Long's Rune Curse was.
"In that case, who has a higher chance of winning between me and him?" Du Haoran asked again.
He didn't want to fight a battle that he wasn't confident of winning, so he came over to ask this Senior Brother.
"Haoran, of course you have a higher chance. I think you have a 90% chance of winning," Mo Jian said with a smile.
90%? That's good! Du Haoran immediately felt relieved.
Not long after, the competition began.
Before the competition, Xie Zhe said again, "You can choose your opponent freely, or you can come up one by one according to the queue just now."
This made Du Haoran even happier. However, he didn't go up immediately.
After Xie Zhe's voice fell, a disciple walked to the center of the crowd. He looked at the surrounding new disciples and said, "I am Wei Xiong. I wonder which senior brother will give me face?"
"Let me!" As soon as his voice fell, a young man immediately walked out.
After a polite exchange, the two of them immediately started fighting.
After a few rounds, the young man's chest was hit by Wei Xiong's palm. Linlong clearly saw that after this palm attack, there was obviously a Rune Curse on the young man's chest.
"I lost," the young man said with an ugly expression.
"Thank you for letting me win." Wei Xiong was naturally full of smiles.
Wei Xiong challenged the next disciple. After a few rounds, a person who looked like a butler walked to the entrance of the martial arts field and said, "Master, Elder Mo Han is looking for you."
"Oh, let him wait for a moment. I will go over immediately," Xie Zhe replied.
Xie Zhe stood up and gave a few more instructions to the new disciples before walking out of the room.
When Xie Zhe walked out, Du Haoran's eyes lit up. This was a perfect opportunity to teach Linlong a lesson.
Hence, the moment Xie Zhe's foot left, he immediately walked over impatiently.
"Young Master Du, are you going to compete with me?" the person who won earlier asked when he saw Du Haoran walking over.
"You, go down. I have an opponent," Du Haoran said coldly.
After hearing this, how could the person still dare to stand in the center? He immediately walked out.
Du Haoran looked at Linlong in the crowd and said, "Lin Li, do you dare to compete with me?"
He hated Linlong to the core, so he naturally remembered Linlong's name in his heart.
"Of course I can. However, fists and legs have no eyes. I am afraid that I will injure you," Linlong said with a calm smile.
"You can injure me?" Du Haoran sneered.
He didn't feel that Linlong was strong, and Mo Jian said that his Rune Curse was stronger than Linlong's. How could he be afraid of Linlong?
Seeing that Linlong didn't move, Du Haoran said again, "Brat, do you dare to come over?"
"Of course I can. However, I will not make a move without a bet," Linlong said calmly.
"Bet? What do you want to bet?" Hearing Linlong's words, Du Haoran's eyes lit up.
Previously, he only wanted to teach Linlong a lesson. He didn't expect Linlong to dare to bet with him. Linlong was clearly courting death.
"Gambling is naturally vulgar. Why don't we bet that whoever loses will call the other 'grandfather' when they meet in the future?" Linlong said with a smile.
Hearing Linlong's words, the surrounding people were all astonished.
Whoever lost would be too embarrassed to stay here any longer.
Seeing that Du Haoran was stunned, Linlong said again, "Why? You don't dare to bet?"
"I bet. Why wouldn't I bet?" Du Haoran said coldly.
He believed that he wouldn't lose. How could he not bet?
"Since that's the case, let's begin." As he spoke, Linlong walked in front of Du Haoran.
"Brat, you dare to bet with me? You're doomed!" With a sneer, Du Haoran's hands immediately formed a hand seal and charged towards Lin Long.
Seeing this, Linlong also formed a hand seal and charged forward.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the two's hand seals collided. Then, both of them took a few steps back. It seemed like they were evenly matched.
"The two of them seem to be evenly matched," many people said.
"Wrong. Young Master Du did not fully activate his runic incantation. His runic incantation is called the Bone-scraping Incantation. It's stronger than his opponent's runic incantation. If he fully activates it, Lin Li will definitely be at a disadvantage," a powerful and experienced person immediately said.
"So it's the Bone-scraping Incantation. In that case, Young Master Du has a greater chance of winning." The person beside him immediately nodded.
Hearing this, Du Haoran became even more pleased. "Lin Li, do you regret making a bet with me?"
"Maybe a little," Linlong replied.
However, he didn't seem to regret at all. Du Haoran was naturally infuriated.
"Brat, let's see how proud you can be after I defeat you." With that, Du Haoran's hands formed another hand seal and charged towards Linlong.
Linlong immediately formed another hand seal and charged forward. However, what surprised the surrounding people was that this time, Linlong clearly didn't use the runic incantation from before. Instead, he used another type of runic incantation.
This type of runic incantation seemed to be stronger than Du Haoran's Bone-scraping Incantation.
Du Haoran also noticed this, but he didn't have the time to make any changes. He could only bite the bullet and attack.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the crowd could clearly see that Linlong's runic incantation directly broke through Du Haoran's runic incantation, and then imprinted on Du Haoran's chest.
In the next moment, Du Haoran burst into laughter. "Hahahaha …"
"What's going on?" Most people were dumbfounded.
"This seems to be the Wild Laughter Incantation. It can make people laugh after attacking a person's body. I didn't expect Lin Li to have it!" A few people who could see something immediately said.
"It's actually the Wild Laughter Incantation!" Upon hearing this, those who understood were immediately shocked.
They naturally knew how powerful the Wild Laughter Incantation was.
While everyone was surprised, Du Haoran was still laughing and had no intention of stopping.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't want to stop, but that he had to stop.
He was laughing on the surface, but he was actually crying in his heart.
Damn it, how can Lin Li have such a different incantation that's even more powerful than my Bone-scraping Incantation? He cursed in his heart.
Mo Jian, who had a sullen expression, immediately walked to Du Haoran's side, and then struck a few acupuncture points on Du Haoran's body. However, what made him sullen was that he couldn't remove the Wild Laughter Incantation on Du Haoran's body at all.
He couldn't remove it himself. Mo Jian, whose face was twitching, could only look at Lin Long with a sullen expression. "Junior Brother Lin Li, quickly come over and remove the incantation on Du Haoran's body."
Lin Long didn't speak, but walked over. However, he obviously didn't immediately understand the meaning of the Wild Laughter Incantation on Du Haoran's body. Instead, he walked to Du Haoran's side and said, "Young Master Du, you've already lost. Don't forget the bet where you'll call me Grandpa when we meet in the future."
F * ck, he's still bringing this up at this time. Du Haoran felt like crying to death.
He had laughed for too long, and his face was numb.
"Young Master Du, why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me you don't agree?" Lin Long asked with a puzzled expression.
F * ck, how can I speak when I'm laughing? Du Haoran really wanted to cry to death.
At this moment, Lin Long seemed to have thought of something. "Ah, I forgot. You can't speak now. How about this, I'll speak. If you agree, you'll nod, alright?"
What else could Du Haoran do? He could only nod desperately.
Now that he was laughing and nodding with all his might, the surrounding people couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Then … I'll start," Lin Long said again.
"Young Master Du, you've already lost. Don't forget the bet where you'll call me Grandpa when we meet in the future." Lin Long repeated what he had said earlier.
Du Haoran hurriedly nodded his head desperately.
What the crowd didn't expect was that Du Haoran actually fainted right after that.
Fainting from laughing too much? Everyone's face couldn't help but twitch.
