Gu Ming's expression didn't change. "There are lies and there are truths! At the very least, I know that among the Outer Sword disciples on the ranking list, no one can single-handedly defeat nine Three Pure Ones elites with a single sword!
Enough with the idle talk. The position of Eldest Senior Brother is yours. There's no room for discussion!
Hmph, my Outer Sword Branch hasn't obtained such a high ranking in over a thousand years. How is it fake? If anyone disagrees, let them challenge the Three Pure Ones themselves!
Let me tell you, it's fine if you say these discouraging words in front of me, but you can't show your cowardice in front of outsiders!
Especially in front of those arrogant Inner Sword disciples. You have to hold your ground for me! This isn't just my wish. It's also the wish of the other disciples in the Rising Heaven Pavilion. It's also the wish of the Martial Uncles! "
Well, he had become the Outer Sword Branch's golden fighter. In the future, when there were conflicts with the Inner Sword Branch, there would be a lot of situations where he would be asked to stand up for them. It was really a case of sitting at home, but trouble came from the sky. Who could he find to reason with?
Lou Xiaoyi knew he couldn't avoid it. Ever since the battle on Boating Island, the strategy of hiding his strength and biding his time no longer existed. Now, there were only two paths in front of him. Let nature take its course? Or just advance triumphantly?
Thus, he put forward his conditions. This was also the first time he had been so confident since coming to Xuanyuan. He openly expressed his attitude.
"I'll do my best to fulfill your expectations. I won't be timid! However, I have a condition. Ever since I entered the Sect, the missions have been too frequent. I haven't had enough time to improve my cultivation. Cultivation is the foundation of a cultivator!
So, I ask that you give me fifty years of quiet time! After fifty years, I'll do whatever you want me to do. If you want me to go east, I won't go west. If you want me to beat a dog, I won't chase a chicken! "
Gu Ming laughed angrily. "Fifty years? You really dare to say that! Are you using the dome as a place to retire? Why don't you ask for a hundred years?
Your cultivation isn't enough. This is the truth. It's not like the Sect can't see it! We also know that your mission arrangements are dense! The Sect isn't unreasonable. How about this, twenty years! Twenty years from now, I want you to assume all the responsibilities of being the eldest senior brother of this generation of Foundation Establishment cultivators! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. He was already very satisfied. Originally, he thought that having ten years of leisure time was already very good. Twenty years, he thought that his cultivation level would be able to rise to another level, right? As long as his cultivation increased, his current strength would increase tremendously. This was inevitable!
Gu Ming changed his tone, "But the twenty years I said, I won't arrange any missions for you. However, you still have to participate in some of the activities in the sect! You can't find excuses to decline! While you're at it, you should also rein in those junior brothers of yours. They might not necessarily submit to you now!
Twenty years later, some of the sect's secret missions will be handed over to you to complete!
You have to understand that this isn't because the sect is oppressing you. If a jade isn't carved, it won't become useful. If a person isn't tempered, he won't progress. The so-called tempering is absolutely not just traveling around and enjoying yourself to your heart's content. You also need to be responsible and decisive when dealing with matters!
There are many people who want this position, but the Soaring Heaven Pavilion won't give it to them! "
Sure enough, there were some tricks involved, but Lou Xiaoyi was already very satisfied. After all, the fights and entanglements in the sect weren't like those in the outside world. They were only fighting for spirit and face. There was always room to maneuver.
Eldest Senior Brother Cigarette Butt was so strange. So strange!
In Xuanyuan, in fact, in almost every sect, there was a saying that the eldest senior brother was in charge. On one hand, it was because the martial uncles above were lazy. On the other hand, they really wanted to train the ability of the disciples below in advance.
A snake wouldn't walk without a head, and a bird wouldn't fly without a head. A good leader was very useful to a team. The test was in all aspects of training.
Of course, a super large sect like Xuanyuan wouldn't only have one eldest senior brother in charge. He would be too busy. Below him, there were still the second senior brother, the third senior brother … In Xuanyuan Sword School, there were seven senior brothers in charge, but the eldest senior brother was the most important.
Lou Xiaoyi was forced to do something beyond his ability. He didn't care about it. If he could avoid it, he would avoid it. However, there were some things he couldn't avoid. For example, the invitation from the other six Swordsman who had the title of senior brother!
Since he was already the leader, he had to meet the brothers below him.
The location of the gathering was on a nameless snowy peak. Lou Xiaoyi only got a location. Obviously, his future little brothers wanted to see his real strength now. They wanted to know if he really had the ability to fight off nine Three Pure Ones elites with one sword, or if it was just an exaggeration and a lie.
In the world of cultivation, there was always a mixture of truth and falsehood. There was a group of people who specialized in fabricating rumors to cover up the truth. However, in this case, Dafa wasn't wrong. The fight was real, and the victory was real. However, there were some parts of it that people couldn't accept …
For example, Lou Xiaoyi only killed the first two Three Pure Ones cultivators. In fact, they were also the two weakest ones. This was the truth! The other two admitted defeat? The remaining five didn't even show up. Without seeing it with their own eyes, they couldn't really understand the actual situation of the battle.
Another example was that none of the nine Three Pure Ones cultivators who showed up were on the ranking list! Although everyone admitted that there were hidden elites in every sect, and they weren't necessarily weak, there was no accurate standard to judge whether the ones who showed up were the elites of the elites, or just ordinary elites.
Moreover, in the eyes of the sword cultivators, there was a deep-rooted belief that one had to pull out a mule or a horse to see if one was a mule or a horse. The so-called elites that emerged from within the sect through acting were actually different from those on the leaderboard who relied on their own strength to fight their way up!
The Xuanyuan Swordsman paid particular attention to actual combat. They were very clear that the same level didn't determine the same ability. There were too many other factors in a battle. Judgment, experience, psychological quality, courage, and the ability to seize opportunities were often more important than how high one's cultivation was or how many types of swordsmanship one knew!
Lou Xiaoyi's problem was that he had never really defeated a person on the ranking list. It was really hard for people to believe that he was in such a high position. It wasn't just the External Swordsman sect. In fact, many cultivators from other sects also had doubts about this.
This was the trouble of being on the ranking list. If you were ranked too low, people would look down on you. If you were ranked too high, people wouldn't be convinced!
The ranking list was really not a good thing!
He knew that in order to solve this problem, just like what Lan Cheng of the Weijian Mountain said, it was impossible to keep a low profile. There was no room for a low profile, unless you looked down on the other mountains! Beat them until they didn't even have the courage to challenge!
In this place, words were useless. Flying swords were the real thing! It was useless to form cliques and win people over with virtue …
The six of them were standing on a huge rock with a radius of more than a hundred feet on the top of the snowy peak. Snow was falling, and the north wind was howling. The clothes of the six of them were fluttering, like six long swords, standing still in the wind and snow.
They had already felt a spiritual opportunity approaching. That must be the so-called Eldest Senior Brother. They had also thought of countless ways to measure the quality of this new Eldest Senior Brother. If he wasn't as good as the rumors said he was, they were afraid that they would laugh …
However, this figure didn't come close to them. What came close to them was a sword light. It split the wind and snow apart. The majestic momentum created an obvious path in the wind and snow. Near the path was a light. When they saw it, it was already in front of them!
