"Chen Hao … Chen Hao wins! Star-Picking Sect wins! "
After being stunned for more than ten seconds, the referee finally realized his duty. With a trembling voice, he announced the result of the match.
Wu Ruochen, who looked like a dead pig, was taken back by the Sky Sword Sect's disciples. The hole in his stomach, the bloody pig head, and the fact that Chen Hao had purposely stepped on him so hard that he no longer resembled a human, made the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect wish they could find a hole to crawl into. The buzzing sounds of discussion were extremely ear-piercing. However, the members of the dignified Rank 9 Sect, who used to be arrogant, did not even dare to let out a fart at this moment.
…
When Chen Hao jumped down from the ring and flew to the contestant area, the Star-Picking Sect's disciples cheered excitedly. Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian hugged each other excitedly, their faces flushed red. Xia Lanlan, Duan Yufei, and the others who were sitting with Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian also looked happy, but they did not dare to shout out loud.
…
The last three rounds of the Sect Tournament became boring. When the sky was completely dark, the curtains finally came to an end. The Star-Picking Sect's momentum skyrocketed as they obtained a complete victory.
The top 20 contestants were determined on the spot based on the performance of all the disciples. For example, Zhao Yuan Qing and the others who had never had the chance to fight were only nominated, but no one dared to challenge them in their groups.
Each group had two people. Among the top ten ninth-rank sects, except for the two groups that Chen Hao and Leng Yihan were in, where only one person from the Sky Sword Sect and the Piao Miao Sect made it into the top twenty, the other eight ninth-rank sects all had two people. Eighteen of the top 20 spots were occupied.
Even so, it was the first time in hundreds of years that a non-Ninth-grade sect's disciple entered the top 20. These two people were Leng Yihan and Chen Hao!
Leng Yihan led the Ten Thousand Pill Pavilion and broke the unshakable legend of the Sky Sword Sect!
Chen Hao led the Star-Picking Sect and created a legend!
The legend of ten people from a third-grade sect defeating nearly 200 people from a ninth-grade sect!
…
That night, countless cultivators in Dongxuan City gathered in restaurants, teahouses, and other places of various sizes. Countless cultivators also swarmed into merchant guilds of various sizes to participate in the bets for the top twenty.
Chen Hao and Leng Yihan, who had not been favored, had improved tremendously. This was especially so for Chen Hao, who was second only to Chu Qingtian and Xia Youyou. Even Gu Xing was pushed aside under Chen Hao. Leng Yihan, on the other hand, was at the same level as Gu Xing and Wu Ruochen. Of course, this was because Leng Yihan was valued by the female Immortal Master. Otherwise, although Leng Yihan's performance was terrifying, it was only in terms of recovery and endurance. The absolute combat power he displayed was still far from Wu Ruochen and Chen Hao's.
…
After returning to the monastery, Yuwen Tairan, the four Grand Elders, and all the disciples gathered in the main hall. Naturally, they could not avoid praising Chen Hao, Helian Wuzi, Tantai Lian, and all the other Star-Picking Sect disciples. It had to be said that Yuwen Tairan was very satisfied with everyone's performance today. Moreover, Yuwen Tairan and the four Grand Elders could clearly feel that there was a cohesive force in everyone's bodies that the Star-Picking Sect disciples had never had before.
"Alright, you can all go back. After this Inter-Sect Competition, I believe that you have all learned a lot. Use these three days to consolidate it. If you want to go out for a walk, don't worry. The Immortal Master has already spoken, and I believe that they will not dare to act recklessly. Chen Hao, you stay. I will take you to the Myriad Pill Pavilion … "
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Hearing the Sect Master's words, the others left one after another. Indeed, as the Sect Master had said, all of them had gained a lot. The top twenty competition had nothing to do with them. Only Chen Hao would participate. But that was still three days later. These three days were undoubtedly the best time for them to consolidate their understanding.
"Sect Master, I won't go, right?" After everyone left, Chen Hao said with some difficulty, "I have to compete in three days. I have to cultivate quickly. I gained a lot today …"
"We will be back soon. We won't delay your cultivation. Although the Myriad Pill Pavilion's Pavilion Master was implicated today, he clearly helped us at the time. Moreover, he didn't do it because of the Star-Picking Sect, but because of your relationship with Leng Yihan. Of course, he also saw your potential and talent … Although the Immortal Master suppressed it in the end, we should still pay him a visit and thank him … Besides … "
Yuwen Tairan paused for a moment, then stopped hiding and continued, "Today, we completely broke off relations with the Sky Sword Sect. Although it's nothing for now, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any problems in the future. The Sky Sword Sect is a ninth-rank sect. Even if the Immortal Master reprimanded them, their foundation and strength are still there. They won't be wiped out. Our Star-Picking Sect's situation will be very difficult in the future … Moreover, the Myriad Pill Pavilion has the Immortal Master's Token … and is a peak seventh-rank sect. It's very possible … Do you understand what I mean? "
"Alright," Chen Hao replied. Since Yuwen Tairan had said so, no matter how unwilling Chen Hao was, he could only go.
…
After the two of them arrived at the courtyard of the Myriad Pill Pavilion, although they were personally welcomed by the Myriad Pill Pavilion's Pavilion Master, they only sat for a short while before taking their leave. Firstly, Chen Hao wanted to cultivate, and secondly, there were too many people who came to visit. Yuwen Tairan couldn't help but sigh. The snobbishness of the cultivation world was definitely greater than that of the secular world.
Fortunately, the Myriad Pill Pavilion's Pavilion Master was clearly much more enthusiastic towards Yuwen Tairan and Chen Hao, especially Chen Hao. Even the sect masters present were full of praise for Chen Hao.
Chen Hao responded calmly, neither servile nor overbearing. He didn't have the slightest bit of pride and arrogance that a young man should have. This made everyone praise Chen Hao even more in their hearts.
Little did they know that this guy had enjoyed countless praises in his previous life. This little bit of praise was really nothing. He accepted it as a matter of course.
Fortunately for Chen Hao, Leng Yihan had already entered the state of cultivation. After hearing about Leng Yihan's situation from Xia Youyou today, Chen Hao felt like avoiding him like a snake or scorpion. If he could avoid him, he really didn't want to see him …
…
"Chen Hao, let's go to the Ling Tian Sect again!"
To Chen Hao's surprise, Yuwen Tairan suddenly said this when the two of them had just walked out of the Myriad Pill Pavilion's courtyard.
"Cough cough … Sect Master, I'm not going to the Ling Tian Sect!" Chen Hao actually refused directly.
"What's wrong? The Ling Tian Sect has helped you a lot. Previously, because of Fan Fang, they came out once. Today, if it weren't for the Pavilion Master's token, Xia Lingfeng would've helped you! "
"He helped me? Did he? "Chen Hao was slightly stunned.
"Of course. Why would I lie to you? I'm not afraid that you'll laugh at me. When the Heaven Sword Sect accused you, I was indeed timid. Even if I wanted to come out, I didn't dare to speak so decisively. This was because I knew that once there was a conflict, it could mean the Star Picking Sect's annihilation … I couldn't joke about the countless lives and thousands of years of foundation of the Star Picking Sect. The reason I dared to do that was because Sect Master Xia hinted that he would support me … No matter what, you should pay him a visit, right? "
"No. He should be the one paying me a visit! Sect Master, forgive me for not being able to comply … "Chen Hao frowned slightly and pondered for a while, but he still said resolutely. Obviously, there was no room for negotiation. What he said shocked Yuwen Tairan so much that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Let the Sect Master of a ninth grade sect pay him a visit?
"Cough cough … Don't tell me you have a grudge with the Ling Tian Sect? Or are you prejudiced against Sect Master Xia? "
"It's not a grudge. I'm definitely prejudiced. Sect Master, there's no room for discussion. If you want to go, you can go by yourself. I'll go back first … "
Gasp!
After Chen Hao finished speaking, he turned into a stream of light and left quickly, leaving behind a stunned Yuwen Tairan.
How could this brat have anything to do with the Sect Master of the Ling Tian Sect? How could he be prejudiced against him?
Yuwen Tairan shook his head and could not figure it out. He could only pay him a visit himself.
…
"Hao Hao …"
Chen Hao had just appeared at the entrance of the Star Picking Sect's courtyard when he heard the affectionate call. It almost made Chen Hao jump.
"Youyou? Why are you here? "Looking at the figure in front of him, Chen Hao asked in surprise. This was not a clone but the real Xia Youyou.
"Why? Don't you welcome me? It's not just Youyou who's here, hehe … "
"What do you mean?" Chen Hao was slightly stunned and immediately released his powerful perception. However, he could not capture any aura. To be exact, the entire courtyard hall was enveloped by a mysterious aura that blocked all probing auras.
"You'll find out later. Let's go!" Xia Youyou took the initiative and directly pulled Chen Hao to the courtyard hall.
Chen Hao frowned slightly and his expression became a little awkward. Could it be that the old man really came to visit him?
When he thought of this, Chen Hao's expression changed instantly. F * ck, I don't care if you're Youyou's grandfather. You dared to look down on me back then, so don't expect me to be nice to you today. If it wasn't for Youyou being reasonable, considerate, gentle, obedient, and lovable … I'm not Chen Hao if I don't ruthlessly trample on you back!
Although it seemed like he still did not have the ability to trample on you, there would be a day when he would. This was something that Chen Hao firmly believed.
…
Just as Chen Hao and Xia Youyou were about to enter the courtyard hall, Yuwen Tairan also hurried back. The instant he saw Chen Hao, this old man's face was filled with astonishment and confusion. He transmitted, "Brat, no matter what, a grand ninth rank sect's sect master has brought his precious granddaughter here. Can't you give him some face? A third rank sect, a ninth rank sect, personally coming to visit us … I, Yuwen Tairan, don't have that face … "
"Youyou, quickly come in." At the same time, Yuwen Tairan said to Xia Youyou in an intimate manner.
"Greetings, sect master Yuwen!" Xia Youyou smiled and bowed.
"Good, good … brother Xia, I was just about to pay my respects to you, but I didn't expect you to come instead. How can I not feel embarrassed …"
When Yuwen Tairan saw the door open, he hastily rushed in and cupped his fists.
Chen Hao and Xia Youyou also walked in and saw the four elders respectfully standing in front of Xia Lingfeng.
"There's no need to be polite. Youyou, this little girl, just had to drag this Old Man here … haha … "Xia Lingfeng stroked his beard and laughed. As he spoke, his gaze swept over Chen Hao who was being pulled by Xia Youyou. Although his old face did not show anything, his heart was tangled. This stinking brat, I, a grand ninth rank sect's sect master, specially came here. I've already made way for you by several streets, and you're still giving me attitude? If it weren't for Youyou's face, if it weren't for the ranking competition in three days …
