Xu Fan
Lin Ling stared at the sky and found that his name was not there. This meant that he was not a candidate disciple, nor was he an official disciple. Of course, this was normal. Not long ago, the red-haired man had told him that his results were very good, and he would certainly be valued by the Seven Profound Martial House!
"The next proud son of heaven will be my, Xu Fan's, disciple! "
Xu Fan quietly sat on the mountain peak, speaking again. As one of the 36 Apprentice Masters, he also had a massive number of disciples!
"I'm so envious! "
Many of the talented youths thought to themselves. If they could become Apprentice Master Xu Fan's disciple, they would be able to avoid detours. For instance, if they entered the Seven Profound Martial House, it wouldn't be long before those geniuses who became Apprentice Master Xu Fan's disciples would surpass them!
"This year's first ranked genius of the Hundred Territories will become my direct disciple. Ranked second is Zhao Qingtian. Ranked third is Long Xiaochen. Ranked fourth is Lin Ling from the Cloud Domain. Eh? Wait a minute, this Lin Ling can only be a candidate disciple! "
Xu Fan was constantly reading a book in his hand. It recorded the top 20 outstanding talents, but when he read about Lin Ling, he frowned and then announced it!
The fourth ranked genius in terms of strength and talent was actually a candidate disciple, not even an official disciple. Wasn't this the same as sending Lin Ling to the Seven Profound Martial House to do odd jobs?
If this was an ordinary genius, then it would be fine, but this was someone who was ranked fourth!
Everyone's pupils shrank, and then they all laughed. That youth called Lin Ling was so pitiful. It seemed that he had offended Apprentice Master Xu Fan!
"Ranked fifth is Tang Yue. Ranked sixth is Zuo Mo." Xu Fan continued to announce, but it seemed that he had already eliminated Lin Ling!
"Why is it like this?"
In the crowd, Lin Ling frowned. He was also surprised by this result. He had gone through the assessment on the dragon boat, but in the end he was only a candidate disciple. This was too unfair!
Moreover, he hadn't offended anyone when he first came to the Seven Profound Martial House, so why was Apprentice Master Xu Fan targeting him?
Anger rose in his heart. Suddenly, his eyes flickered. A guess rose in his heart. Could it be that the powerful Master Xu Fan was Lin Xuanwu's master?
"Wait, Lin Ling was the most talented and powerful person on my ship. Why did he become a candidate disciple in the end?"
At this moment, a loud shout rang out. The person who came seemed to be indignant on behalf of Lin Ling, so he stood up for Lin Ling!
After all, the Seven Profound Martial House was a place where geniuses were cultivated. It was a sacred and dignified place, how could the rules be changed in front of countless people?
Everyone looked at the person who spoke and discovered that it was a middle-aged man with long red hair. He was the red-haired middle-aged man from Lin Ling's ship.
On the mountain peak, Xu Fan was still sitting in his chair, his expression calm. He picked up a cup of tea from a nearby table and took a sip before slowly speaking.
"I am the host of this disciple recruitment. If I say yes, then that is it. Zhang Hongfa, your responsibility is to assess these talented youths. You do not have the qualifications to decide where these youths will go. Not to mention, the Cloud Domain is just a tiny place in the Lower Three Realms. How could there be a fourth-ranked genius here? You shouldn't have been bribed by someone!"
"Xu Fan, you!"
The red-haired middle-aged man's face was ugly. Although his status in the Seven Profound Martial House was not low, it was obviously below the 36 Apprentice Masters.
"This Lin Ling's heart of martial arts is not firm, and his killing intent is too heavy. In fact, he is not suitable to become a disciple of the Seven Profound Martial House. If he wants to become my disciple, then that is just a dream. I do not want this kind of youth who constantly kills others in order to become stronger. But in the end, he came from thousands of miles away, so I will not be too excessive. I will still give him a chance to become a candidate disciple!"
Xu Fan opened his mouth again. His eyes fell from the mountain peak to the youth in the square. The corners of his mouth curved up in a cold smile!
Lin Ling had killed his apprentice Lin Xuanwu, and had also killed his nephew Qingquan Ming!
If it weren't for the fact that the square was the center of attention, and that he was the Apprentice Master of the Seven Profound Martial House this year, he would have already taken his revenge and turned Lin Ling into ashes!
However, if Lin Ling wanted to enter the Seven Profound Martial House, he would not refuse. Instead, he would become a candidate disciple of Lin Ling, and become everyone's slave, slowly toying with him until he died!
"Xu Fan, I don't know what grudges you have with Lin Ling, that a great character like you would humiliate him like this. But don't you think that you are abusing your power for personal gain? You have gone too far! "
The red-haired middle-aged man roared again!
He didn't know what had happened between Xu Fan and Lin Ling, but he wasn't a fool. He knew that Xu Fan had a problem with Lin Ling, and wanted to toy with Lin Ling, this ant, to death!
After all, according to the rules of the Seven Profound Martial House, the top 20 talents of the Hundred Territories would all be accepted as disciples by the Apprentice Master. Even if Xu Fan didn't want to accept Lin Ling as a disciple, Lin Ling still had the qualifications to become an official disciple, and not a candidate disciple.
A candidate disciple, from a certain point of view, was a servant, without any dignity!
"I'm abusing my power for personal gain? Haha, do I need to do this to an ant? Go and ask the people around you, did this boy Lin Ling rob others of their treasures, or did he kill them? Then ask Lin Ling, did he kill anyone? If he kills too much, sooner or later he will turn into a demon. I gave him a way out and recruited him into the Seven Profound Martial House, that is a gift to him! "
On the mountain peak, Xu Fan lightly said.
"What Apprentice Master Xu said is right. Lin Ling has no principles. In order to become strong, he killed his own family!"
"That's right, I was just blocking his way, and he almost killed me. Luckily, this is the Seven Profound Martial House, he doesn't dare to mess around!"
"This kind of person is ugly!"
The voices of many youths came from all around the square. These youths all wanted to become Xu Fan's disciples, so they naturally understood.
"You've gone too far!"
The red-haired middle-aged man's face was gloomy. From his impression of Lin Ling, this boy was relatively low-key. From the moment he boarded his ship, he didn't provoke anyone. It was always others who provoked him, and he didn't go around bullying other youths just because he was the strongest.
But now, all of this had been reversed by Xu Fan. Some of the talented youths who didn't understand the whole story began to despise Lin Ling!
"Thank you, Senior Red-haired!"
At this moment, a soft voice rang out, causing the square to fall silent. Countless eyes looked over, only to see a young man in a blue and white robe walking out step by step. His face was indifferent, but the anger in his eyes was like flames blooming.
"He came out?"
The many talented youths were slightly surprised, but they could understand. After all, Lin Ling was ranked fourth among the Hundred Territories' geniuses, but he had been reduced to a candidate disciple. Anyone would be unwilling to accept this!
However, in the face of the powerful Apprentice Master Xu Fan, what could he change?
"This boy is the murderer who killed my nephew?"
