"That's right. Someone should be in charge of this matter. How do we decide on the Acting Hall Master?" Ling Dong asked.
As soon as Ling Dong finished speaking, Pingmiao returned to his seat. Among the four Centurion, three of them glanced at Deputy Hall Master Qin Zhiguo intentionally or unintentionally.
Qin Zhiguo immediately said, "Vice President Ling has just entered the Tenmu Temple, so you're not clear about the rules here. Let me explain. If the Hall Master of the Tenmu Temple has an accident, the Deputy Hall Master will be in charge of all the affairs in the Hall. If the Deputy Hall Master is absent, the Centurion will be in charge of all the affairs. "
Qin Zhiguo's eyes turned cold as he glanced at the four Centurion. "According to the rules of the Tenmu Temple, since Palace Master Leng has an accident, I, as the Deputy Hall Master, will be in charge of all the affairs in the Hall. Do you have any objections?"
Qin Zhiguo's tone suddenly changed. Not only did he ignore Ling Dong again, but he also directly put the title of Acting Hall Master on him. He was too shameless.
Ling Dong frowned. Just as he was about to speak, Cheng Dongyuan's Soul Transmission sounded in Ling Dong's mind. "Young Patriarch, you must get this Acting Hall Master. According to the rules of the Tenmu Temple, if the Hall Master has an accident and something big happens in the Hall, as long as the Acting Hall Master can settle it, the title of 'Acting' can be removed immediately. "
While Ling Dong and Cheng Dongyuan were talking, Yang Centurion, who was sitting in the first seat on the right, said, "Deputy Hall Master Qin is familiar with the Hall's affairs. He has been the Deputy Hall Master for 20 years, and his cultivation level is very suitable. He deserves to be the Acting Hall Master. I, Yang, am the first to agree!"
Looking at Yang Centurion and Qin Zhiguo's eyes, Ling Dong felt that the two of them might have been prepared for this.
Yang Centurion's simple words of support for Qin Zhiguo had indirectly pointed out Ling Dong's biggest shortcoming.
Although Ling Dong was the Deputy Hall Master, he had been in the Hall for less than half a year. He was not familiar with the rules, and his strength was only in the second level of the Constellation Realm. How could he be the Hall Master?
After Yang Centurion spoke, Chang Centurion, who was sitting in the third seat, moved his eyes and said, "I agree …"
"Wait!" When Chang Centurion spoke, Ling Dong suddenly interrupted him. He questioned Qin Zhiguo with an unhappy expression, "Deputy Hall Master Qin, if I didn't hear wrong, according to the rules of the Tenmu Temple, any Deputy Hall Master can be the Acting Hall Master. Why did Deputy Hall Master Qin directly exclude Ling Ling?"
"Oh, Vice President Ling, you want to be the Acting Hall Master of our Yangkoucheng branch church? Is this a joke, or is there no one in our Yangkou branch hall? " A mere Second Order Constellation Realm cultivator like you? "Before Qin Zhiguo could speak, Centurion Yang raised his thick eyebrows and mocked Ling Dong.
After Yang Centurion finished speaking, Qin Zhiguo said with a smile, "Ha, Vice President Ling, you see, I'm not excluding you. You've only been in the Hall for a short time, and your cultivation is really … If you painstakingly cultivate for a few decades or even a hundred years, it's actually possible."
At this moment, Qin Zhiguo felt a sense of exaltation and exaltation. It was especially refreshing. Since the moment he was humiliated by Cheng Dongyuan, he was finally able to vent the anger in his heart.
"Cultivate for a few decades or even a hundred years? Even a random decurion under my command would be several levels stronger than Vice President Ling, right? "Vice Hall Master Ling, I suggest that you focus on your cultivation and stabilize your position as the Vice Hall Master first. Don't be like Master Cui Wu in the past … "Yang Centurion's words were extremely sinister. He directly used Cui Wu's name to scold Ling Dong for having a short life.
At this moment, Cheng Dongyuan's expression also became abnormally ugly. He wanted to help Ling Dong, but at this moment, he couldn't interrupt. He could only rely on Ling Dong himself.
"Yang Centurion, you don't need to worry. Ling just wants to confirm whether or not Ling, the Vice Hall Master, has the qualifications to be the Acting Hall Master according to the rules of the Tenmu Temple. As for the Vice Hall Master Qin and Yang Centurion's worries about whether or not Ling's cultivation is qualified to be the Acting Hall Master is simple! "Ling Dong said.
"Simple. You're just a Level Two Constellation Realm cultivator. How dare you boast so shamelessly!" Yang Centurion sneered.
Ling Dong ignored Yang Centurion's ridicule and persistently asked, "Yang Centurion, please answer Ling. Everyone, please be witnesses. According to the rules of the Tenmu Temple, does Ling, as the Vice Hall Master, have the qualifications to be the Acting Hall Master?"
At this moment, the other three Centurion's expressions were slightly strange. They didn't understand. How could Ling Dong compete for the Acting Hall Master's position with that little bit of cultivation and accumulation? Cheng Dongyuan?
Yang Centurion was stumped by Ling Dong's question. He had to answer this question and couldn't fake it. The rules of the Tenmu Temple were there.
He looked at the roof and answered absent-mindedly, "Yes, as long as you're a Vice Hall Master, no matter if you're a cat or a dog, you have the qualifications!
However, qualifications are just qualifications. It is not that we are looking down on you, Vice Hall Master Ling, but with your cultivation in the Second Stage of the Constellation Realm, even a Starry Sky Realm cultivator would be able to instantly kill you. If you become the Substitute Hall Master, wouldn't you be bringing shame to our Heaven Martial Palace? "
Ling Dong was relieved when he heard Yang Centurion's words. If they were entangled in the issue of qualifications, Ling Dong wouldn't be able to refute Ling Dong. However, they were aiming at what they thought was Ling Dong's biggest shortcoming — cultivation!
This issue was too simple for Ling Dong!
"Heh, everyone, I've said before that the issue of cultivation is very simple! As long as Vice Hall Master Qin or any of you here have no problems with your cultivation, then Ling's cultivation won't be a problem either! "Ling Dong said in a very calm tone.
Qin Zhiguo, who was sitting below, didn't understand Ling Dong's words. However, Yang Centurion understood what he meant.
"Arrogant! Extremely arrogant! " Yang Centurion's expression suddenly became extremely cold. "Vice President Ling, if your cultivation is as high as your arrogance, then we won't have to worry."
"Vice President Ling, do you mean that your cultivation is higher than my Level Two Constellation Realm cultivation? Or are you saying that I'm not a match for you? "Qin Zhiguo enunciated each word with a sinister expression.
As long as Ling Dong dared to admit this, he would dare to have a deathmatch with Ling Dong. It wouldn't be impossible for him to kill Ling Dong while he was at it.
The other three Centurion's expressions didn't look too good either. As the saying went, there was no second place in literature and no first place in martial arts. Furthermore, they were being looked down upon by a small fry whose cultivation was seven or eight levels lower than theirs. Anyone would feel indignant.
Just as everyone was thinking about what trick Ling Dong was going to play, Ling Dong suddenly raised his head and said proudly, "Ling has the same intention. If anyone is indignant, you can have a duel with Ling Ling! Substitute Talisman duel or deathmatch, you can choose. Ling will definitely beat him until he's convinced! "
"What?" The four Centurion's stood up at the same time.
If Ling Dong's first few sentences had already filled them with anger, then the last sentence 'beat him until he's convinced' completely provoked their hostility.
If a Celestial Monarch had said this, they might have tolerated it a little. However, a Level Two Constellation Realm small fry had actually said this in front of them. If Cheng Dongyuan wasn't here, they would probably have rushed up to Ling Dong and killed him.
"Why? Didn't you hear me clearly? Substitute Talisman duel or deathmatch, you can choose. No matter who comes, Ling will definitely beat him until he's convinced! "Ling Dong repeated with a smile. However, there was an unusually sharp glint hidden in his smile.
Cheng Dongyuan, the only person present who was sitting in a chair, sighed inwardly. Someone was going to suffer a great loss here. Even he, Cheng Dongyuan, didn't have the confidence to defeat this young master of the Ling family!
Especially in recent days, the cultivation of the Ling family's members had skyrocketed rapidly, while the young master's cultivation had remained stagnant. This made Cheng Dongyuan feel that there was something strange about this.
"Brat, you dare to be so arrogant? Then I'll give you a chance to beat me until I'm convinced. Do you dare to come to the deathmatch?" As he spoke, Yang Centurion had already turned around and walked towards the training field behind the conference hall.
As he walked, Centurion Yang shouted at Ling Dong, "Life and Death Duel, if a coward like you doesn't dare to come, then get out of the Assembly Hall immediately, and get as far away as you can!"
"Young master, be careful. This Yang guy and the Qin guy are very likely to be in cahoots! The White Tiger Constellation that this Yang guy cultivates is extremely powerful. If he uses his full strength, even I can only endure it. "Cheng Dongyuan's voice rang out in Ling Dong's mind.
"Don't worry, Cheng!" After replying, Ling Dong turned to the Hall of Five in the conference hall. "Everyone, please watch the deathmatch and be witnesses!"
In the training field of the Yangkoucheng branch church, Ling Dong and Yang Centurion stood 500 meters apart. The other three Centurion, Qin Zhiguo, and Cheng Dongyuan were watching from the side. Each of them had a different expression on their faces.
However, Centurion and Pingmiao, who had been paying attention earlier, looked at Cheng Dongyuan, who didn't seem to be worried at all. Their expressions gradually became a little strange.
"Ling Dong, I'll give you three moves. I don't want some people to think that I'm bullying you when you're dead!" Yang Centurion stood still. Perhaps he wanted to win back his arrogance, or perhaps he really wanted to kill Ling Dong without giving others a reason to criticize him, but he spoke in an arrogant tone.
Qin Zhiguo, who was standing at the side, heard this and smiled knowingly.
"Give me three moves? Yang Centurion, did I hear wrongly? How about this, you make the first move. Neither of us will give way to the other. It'll be a fair deathmatch! "Ling Dong said with an extremely sincere expression.
To be honest, if this Yang guy really gave Ling Dong three moves, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
"You're still so arrogant even at this time! Fine, I won't talk to you anymore. I won't give you three moves. You make the first move and I'll give you a chance to live! "Yang Centurion said.
"Uh … Yang Centurion, it's better if you make the first move!"
"Cut the crap. You make the first move. To tell you the truth, I'm letting you make the first move so that I won't give myself a reason to kill you! I'm embarrassed to make a move against a Constellation Realm Level Two shrimp like you! "Yang Centurion said.
Ling Dong still said with great difficulty, "This isn't very good. You should make the first move!"
"F * ck, are you f * cking a man or not? Do you think I don't want to make the first move? I just can't afford to lose face! "Yang Centurion was furious.
In this situation, Ling Dong still spread his hands helplessly at the crowd and said, "You see, it's Yang Centurion who let me make the first move!"
"Pretentious!" Qin Zhiguo sneered.
"Yang Centurion, I'm really going to make the first move. You'd better defend well!"
Ling Dong's words almost made Yang Centurion's nose crooked from anger. What the f * ck is going on? Is this still considered a life-and-death battle?
"Quick!" Yang Centurion shouted impatiently, but a golden-white brilliance still gushed out from his body. He still needed to have the necessary defense.
"Then I'm really going to make the first move?"
Ling Dong answered helplessly. When Yang Centurion urged him again, the Triple Mystic Pupil on his forehead opened silently. In the sea of consciousness, the Astrolabe spun crazily, throwing out a large amount of colorful starlight. The moment the Soul-Stirring Mystic Technique was activated, a vigorous Soul fluctuation suddenly spread out, causing the five spectators' pupils to shrink at the same time!
In an instant, a light purple brilliance suddenly shot from Ling Dong's forehead to Yang Centurion, who was standing there arrogantly. Its speed was extremely fast!
