Yue Changkong forced a smile on his face.
Needless to say, he hated Chen Xiaobei to the core. However, he had just built up an image of justice and magnanimity in front of tens of thousands of people.
If he were to fall out with Chen Xiaobei, he would definitely be accused of being narrow-minded. The people that he had worked so hard to win over would also be gone.
That was why his main goal now was to recruit Tai Wu and Huo Tan.
As for the 3,000 Spiritual Stones for the first place, Yue Changkong thought that it was just for Chen Xiaobei to pass the time. A normal person would not be able to spend so many Spiritual Stones in such a short period of time.
After today, he would have plenty of chances to snatch it back from Chen Xiaobei!
Having made up his mind, Yue Changkong ignored Chen Xiaobei and waited for Tai Yitan's answer with a smile on his face.
"I'm sorry!"
Tai Yitan did not even hesitate for half a second. "I will not join Mount Hua Faction!"
* Blarrgghh *
Upon hearing that, Yue Changkong almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What the hell was that supposed to mean?
Did he just get rejected again?
Why did he have to slap him in the face like that? That was heartless!
The audience was also stunned. This was an invitation from an ancient faction! How could he just reject it like that?
Su Dongruo hesitated for a while and then asked, "Then, are you willing to join Green Town Faction? I can recommend you … "
"No!"
Before Su Dongruo could finish his sentence, Tai Yitan rejected him without hesitation.
"You …" Su Dongruo felt like his face was being slapped. His face was burning hot and he did not want to speak anymore!
"Tai Yitan! Chen Xiaobei built his faction on his own! Why did you reject us? "Yue Changkong asked in a deep voice.
As soon as he said that, everyone pricked up their ears. They wanted to know what made Tai Yitan reject the invitations from two ancient factions.
Even Luo Puti was curious about it.
"My reason is very simple!"
Tai Yitan got down on one knee and put his hands together. "I have joined Bei Xuan Faction a long time ago. My Sifu is Chen Xiaobei!"
"What???"
Tai Yitan's simple words had sent a nuclear explosion through everyone's heart!
Yue Changkong and Su Dongruo's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Her head was buzzing, and her thoughts short-circuited.
The live audience burst into exclamations of disbelief.
"Damn! I'm not hallucinating, am I? Tai Yitan did not want the faction leaders of Mount Hua and Green City to be his disciple, but Chen Xiaobei? Are you crazy? "
"Where is Bei Xuan Faction? Could it be better than the Huashan and Qingcheng sects who occupy the blessed land of the spirit vein? "
"They rejected the two ancient factions for Bei Xuan! This is like picking up sesame seeds and throwing watermelons! "
…
The crowd kept on exclaiming. They looked at Tai Yitan as if they were looking at an idiot.
Other than a fool, who else would do something like picking up sesame seeds and throwing watermelons?
"Huo Yuanba! Wu Aofeng! "
Yue Changkong resisted the urge to vomit blood and asked in a deep voice, "You two won't reject me again, will you?"
Huo Yuanba and Wu Aofeng knelt down on one knee and saluted Chen Xiaobei. "We are already disciples of Bei Xuan Faction. Our Sifu is Chen Xiaobei! There is no reason for us to join another faction!"
"What??? They are Chen Xiaobei's disciples as well??? "
His words stirred up a thousand ripples, and the tens of thousands of people at the scene instantly exploded!
"Wu Aofeng and Huo Yuanba are Chen Xiaobei's disciples as well? Oh my god … I'm not dreaming, am I? "
"Who the hell is Chen Xiaobei? Tai, Huo, and Wu! The three of them are the top prodigies in the world! How could they be willing to be under a kid in his early twenties? "
"Who would have thought that? The top four of the Heroes of War Leaderboard are all from Bei Xuan Faction! "
"What kind of magic does Bei Xuan Faction have? This is unbelievable! "
The exclamations of the crowd rose one after another, each louder than the last.
If Tai Yitan was the only one who joined Bei Xuan Faction, the crowd might think that there was something wrong with him.
But now, all three of them made the same decision!
That was enough to prove that Bei Xuan Faction had something extraordinary about them!
"I wonder if I have the chance to join Bei Xuan Faction?"
"I will ask them when the martial arts competition is over! I have a feeling that I will have a bright future if I join this faction! "
"That's right! I will ask them when the martial arts competition is over! "
The attitude of the crowd had changed. Earlier, they treated Tai Yitan like an idiot. Now, they started to wonder if they would have the chance to join Bei Xuan Faction.
"Is … is all of this real …?"
Luo Puti stood there in a daze.
Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that the three prodigies, Tai, Huo, and Wu, that she admired so much had become Chen Xiaobei's disciples!
"I have underestimated Chen Xiaobei …" Luo Puti pursed her lips.
The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became.
She could not help but think if she should join Bei Xuan Faction as well.
Blarrgghh!
At the sight of this, Yue Changkong was so furious that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The thing that he could not accept was losing both his life and his wealth!
But now, he had given out 5,000 Spiritual Stones in front of everyone. Not a single prodigy had joined him!
Losing both his life and his wealth was a foregone conclusion.
However, there was something else that made him even more depressed!
He had spent so much money, resources, manpower, and time, but in the end, all he got was a huge advertisement for Bei Xuan Faction!
After the martial arts competition, at least 9,900 of the tens of thousands of people wanted to join Bei Xuan Faction.
Through their mouths, the news would spread. Soon, Bei Xuan Faction would become famous in China's Jianghu!
Yue Changkong had worked so hard and calculated so many things, but in the end, all his hard work had gone to Chen Xiaobei!
This was enough to make everyone in Jianghu laugh their heads off!
In other words, other than losing both his life and his wealth, Yue Changkong and the entire Mount Hua Faction had lost all their face as well!
Including Yue Junmo who was cursed by Chen Xiaobei.
This time, Yue Changkong had lost his talent, Spiritual Stones, face, and son!
He was already very lucky that he did not die from anger.
"Faction leader … Let me help you get some rest first!" Zhuang Bihuang rushed to the stage and supported Yue Changkong who was about to fall.
"I want to kill them … I want to kill them …" There was blood at the corner of Yue Changkong's mouth.
"You can't do that! You can't do that! "
Zhuang Bihuang quickly advised, "Faction leader, you have to calm down. A moment of recklessness could cost you your life!"
"That's right! Recklessness is the devil! "Liu Xiyuan quickly agreed.
Situ Hengfeng nodded as well. "Faction leader Yue, please don't do anything reckless! Chen Xiaobei is not someone you can mess with!"
