Rather than giving Yang Chen a chance to cultivate in advance, it would be better to say that it was giving Sun Haijing a legitimate reason to abuse Yang Chen. One must know that Sun Haijing had already cultivated for several years, and his current realm was already at the third level of Qi Training. Although this aptitude was not considered outstanding, it was more than enough to deal with an ordinary person.
In these ten years, Yang Chen could not cultivate, but Sun Haijing was advancing day by day. This gap could only grow bigger and bigger. The longer Yang Chen delayed the challenge, the smaller the chance of winning.
And if Yang Chen did not dare to challenge, then Sun Haijing could use the identity of Yang Chen's servant to find someone or himself to humiliate him, until Yang Chen could not stand it and left. Ten years was enough for Sun Haijing to do a lot of things. And these were done under Chu Heng's instructions. Even if he went too far, in one sentence, to hone Yang Chen's temperament, everything could be dodged, and people would not even have a reason to object.
If Yang Chen could not stand it and left, then naturally he would have completed the task of the Taitianmen Martial Uncle Li. If Yang Chen was not allowed to cultivate, then naturally he would not be able to cross paths with Fairy Shi in the future. If Yang Chen continued to stay, then after ten years, his cultivation would be so bad that it was unknown how bad it would be. Moreover, he could even endure that kind of humiliation, his character could be seen to be weak and easy to bully, so naturally there was no need to worry.
This arrangement blocked the censure of everyone, and at the same time it could be considered to have completed the task of a friend, killing many birds with one stone. The only one who would lose was Yang Chen. But at this time, who would stand up for Yang Chen?
After Chu Heng finished his words, he did not wait for Yang Chen to answer, but directly turned to the other side and suddenly said, "Senior Brother Du, what do you think of Junior Brother's arrangement?"
Everyone's gaze followed the direction of Chu Heng's question. A figure suddenly appeared on the other side. The outer sect disciples in charge of recruiting disciples all bowed and saluted, "Disciples greet Martial Uncle Du!"
Yang Chen recognized this Senior Brother Du. His surname was Du Qian, and he was a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall of Chunyang Palace. He usually acted righteously, and few people disagreed with him. Logically speaking, as a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, he shouldn't have appeared here today. Now that he had appeared, a disciple must have reported to him what had happened here. Moreover, it must be because he equated the executioner with the disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall that piqued his interest.
Du Qian only nodded slightly in response to the greetings from the disciples. Then his eyes fell on Yang Chen. After a slight turn, he turned back to Chu Heng's face and snorted, "My Chunyang Palace has never had such a rule. Is this a trick you came up with?"
"My Chunyang Palace has never had such a rule. However, my Chunyang Palace has never accepted an executioner as a disciple. A mortal has killed thousands of people. Moreover, once he knows that he has Fairy Shi to look after him, he will become arrogant. That is not a blessing for cultivation. A little practice is also for his own good. " Chu Heng laughed and did not care about Senior Brother Du's attitude. "Even in front of Fairy Shi, I will arrange it like this. I am afraid that Fairy Shi herself can't say no."
"Even if he wants to practice, it should be arranged by his master. I am afraid that it is not appropriate for Junior Brother Chu to do this." Du Qian frowned, but he could not do anything about Chu Heng. He could only try to find some omissions.
"Today, I am responsible for recruiting disciples. He has just joined Chunyang Palace and has not been formally apprenticed to a master. Naturally, I can handle it." Chu Heng smiled and gently blocked Du Qian's doubts. After that, he turned to Yang Chen and asked again, "Yang Chen, are you willing?"
"If I am not willing, what should I do?" Yang Chen did not answer directly, but asked a question.
"If you are not willing, it means that you have a jumpy temperament and are not fated with my Chunyang Palace. Please find another place." In fact, Chu Heng had already asked this question once, but he was not tired of it and asked it again.
"If a disciple challenges Senior Brother Sun, no matter what the result is, should I first punish him for the crime of harming a fellow disciple?" Yang Chen thought for a while and asked again.
Chu Heng smiled and did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to Du Qian and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Du is a member of the Law Enforcement Hall. You should believe his words."
Du Qian was a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, so he was naturally the most qualified to speak in this regard. After a moment of silence, Du Qian was not bashful. Even if he did not like Chu Heng's behavior, he did not speak against his conscience. He replied loudly, "Since there is a prior agreement, it naturally does not count as harming a fellow disciple."
"Can I ask for help during the challenge?" Yang Chen asked again with a smile.
"Of course not. The challenge is a matter between two people. Even if I lose, I have to lose fair and square." Chu Heng seemed to be very proud of the trick he came up with. He answered Yang Chen's question patiently, "This is how it is to hone one's temperament. Don't think about opportunistic tricks."
"What if he's injured?" Yang Chen's expression became solemn. It seemed that he wanted to ask all the possibilities clearly before taking action.
"That's a pity. You can only blame yourself for not being skilled enough. You can't blame others." Chu Heng smiled again. He was in a very good mood, and his answer was also very straightforward. "But don't worry. It is just a duel between fellow disciples. It may be possible to injure the tendons and break the bones, but it will not be life-threatening. What do you say, Senior Brother Du? "
Du Qian was now unable to express further support for Yang Chen. He could only nod on this: "When you challenge, let me know, I will be there. At least, I can guarantee your life. "
"Thank you, Senior Uncle Du!" Yang Chen could naturally distinguish between good and bad. After thanking Du Qian, he turned to Chu Heng and asked again, "I will be a slave for ten years. From now on, for the next ten years, I can challenge Senior Brother Sun Haijing at any time. As long as I can defeat Senior Brother Sun, I can begin to cultivate under his tutelage. Isn't that right, Senior Uncle Chu?"
Yang Chen had already referred to Sun Haijing as Senior Brother, and Chu Heng and Du Qian as Senior Uncle. Chu Heng had just said these words to Yang Chen, so Chu Heng naturally acknowledged it. He nodded and said nothing.
"I challenge Senior Brother Sun. This is a one-on-one challenge. No one can interfere, much less help. If I am injured, it is because I am not skilled enough. It is very likely that my tendons and bones will be injured, but it will not be life-threatening. Master Chu, is it like this? "Yang Chen once again asked the question that Chu Heng had just answered. This time, Chu Heng nodded again.
"Then, I agree with Senior Uncle Chu's decision." Yang Chen bowed to Chu Heng and Du Qian, then walked up to Sun Haijing.
"Senior Brother Sun, I, Yang Chen, challenge you! Please enlighten me! "
