Watching Su Mengqi leave in a hurry, Yun Fan laughed proudly.
'So what if you're the Saintess? In my eyes, you're just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. Isn't it easy to tease a little girl like that?'
'Hmph, you said I can't do it, but I'll do it for you! I, Yun Fan, will definitely be the champion of this year's inner sect season! '
Looking in the direction Su Mengqi left, Yun Fan's eyes were like torches as he clenched his fists.
He was stubborn and would never admit defeat. Although he knew that Su Mengqi had good intentions, he did not want to be looked down upon by her.
'If I really get first place in the inner sect season, I wonder if Master's wife will kiss me?'
After smirking smugly, Yun Fan became serious again.
If he wanted to get first place in this year's inner sect season, he would definitely have to put in a lot of effort. After all, to make up for the gap of two years in cultivation, he could not just rely on words.
Realizing this, Yun Fan turned his attention to the panel again, deep in thought …
…
A red sun slowly rose on the horizon of the Fire Spirit Sect. The morning sun shone on the ground, causing the Fire Spirit Sect, which had been silent for an entire night, to become lively again.
In the distance, from the depths of the Fire Spirit Sect's forbidden area, nine bell tolls rang out. The buzzing sound of the bell spread throughout the entire Fire Spirit Sect, causing all the disciples to be invigorated.
The nine tolls of the bell indicated that a major event would be held in the Fire Spirit Sect today.
All the inner sect disciples looked in the direction of the forbidden area with burning eyes, because today, the new inner sect season would begin there!
After the bell tolled for a few breaths, strong figures rushed out from the inner sect encampments of the various peaks. They were either running rapidly on the ground or shuttling through the treetops of the houses. There were even some inner sect disciples with extraordinary strength who directly took out their flying Dharma treasures and turned into streaks of light as they flew towards the forbidden area of the sect, attracting countless envious gazes.
Approximately fifteen minutes later, all the Inner Sect disciples had already gathered at the gathering point within the Sect's forbidden grounds. Everyone's gazes were filled with reverence as they landed on an ancient stone tablet at the center.
The stone tablet was over 30 meters tall. It was simple and unadorned, and it revealed an indescribably ancient aura. The body of the tablet was uneven, and there were countless blade, spear, and sword marks. Just looking at any mark on it for a moment would cause one's heart to palpitate.
Sect leader Mo Qian closed his eyes and waited in front of the stone tablet. Behind him stood the four hall masters, all of them silent.
"Is everyone here?"
After a few breaths, Mo Qian slowly opened his eyes, and his voice faintly spread.
Hall Master Nongyan took a step forward and replied respectfully, "Reporting to Sect Master, all the inner sect disciples of the four halls have arrived, but …"
"But what?" Mo Qian frowned.
"We're just missing one person," Xiang Yan said with a wry smile.
"Hmm?"
Mo Qian was stunned. The Inner Sect disciples were all listed in the four halls. Now that all the disciples of the four halls had arrived, how could there be only one person missing?
As if he understood the Sect Master's thoughts, Xiang Yan coughed softly and smiled awkwardly. "We're still missing Yun Fan …"
After Xiang Yan's reminder, Mo Qian finally remembered Yun Fan, this' troublemaker '.
This person had appeared out of nowhere in the Inner Sect Ceremony a few months ago and shocked the world with a single brilliant feat. However, after obtaining first place in the ceremony, he spoke arrogantly and disdained to acknowledge the four hall masters as his masters. In the end, he was forcefully taken away by the Saintess, which resolved much of the awkwardness.
Thinking about it, Yun Fan was now the direct disciple of the Saintess and was naturally not listed in the four peaks. However, although Yun Fan's identity was special, he was still an Inner Sect disciple. He had to participate in the Inner Sect Competition. This was the rule of the Fire Spirit Sect for generations.
"Quickly send someone to the Saintess's Mansion and report to the Saintess. Then, bring Yun Fan here!" Mo Qian ordered in a low voice.
"Yes …"
Although the conversation between Mo Qian and Xiang Yan was not loud, it was still overheard by the disciples standing in the front row. After a series of whispers, almost all the Inner Sect disciples knew that only Yun Fan had not arrived.
"Damn it, so what if he's the direct disciple of the Saintess? So many Inner Sect disciples are waiting for him. How extravagant!"
"Hmph, so what if he's the direct disciple of the Saintess? So what if he obtained first place in the Inner Sect Ceremony? No matter what, he's still a new disciple who just entered the Inner Sect. Asking us, the old disciples, to wait for him, he really thinks he's someone important! "
"Hehe, Yun Fan, this brat, only thinks that he's extraordinary because of his identity as the disciple of the Saintess. However, after entering the Secret Realm of the Stone Tablet, this identity is useless. At that time, I'd like to see what ability this direct disciple of the Saintess has!"
"Hehe, Yun Fan, right? Don't let me meet you in the Secret Realm. Otherwise, as your Senior Brother, I can't help but teach you a lesson and let you know what it means to respect strength!"
When some of the old disciples heard this, they all echoed in unison. They all rubbed their palms together and made up their minds to teach Yun Fan a lesson in the Secret Realm.
When everyone said this, they were interrupted by a sneer behind them. Then, everyone heard a cold voice, "Yun Fan's life is mine. Don't you dare interfere!"
When everyone heard this, they were dissatisfied in their hearts. However, when they saw that the person who came was Nie An, they all put on a flattering smile.
Nie An was known as one of the top 10 Inner Sect disciples in terms of combat strength. Naturally, they did not dare to offend him.
"Senior Brother Nie An, you said that Yun Fan's life is yours. Naturally, I don't dare to compete with you."
"Yes, I heard that Yun Fan dared to use his identity as the Saint Lady's disciple to blackmail you. Of course, I have to vent my anger."
"Yes, we will always support Senior Brother Nie An. Let's teach that little bastard Yun Fan a lesson. Let him know in the future that not everyone can be provoked easily."
The group of followers who followed Nie An also echoed. Nie An's lips curled into a cold smile, and his eyes flashed coldly.
For the past few months, he had been looking forward to the Inner Sect Season.
Yun Fan had beaten his servant, Zhou Tao, half to death in public and extorted 50,000 Spirit Stones from him. Because Yun Fan was the Saint Lady's disciple, not only could he not be angry, but he also had to send him off with a smile.
If these things were spread out, he would lose all his face in the Inner Sanctum and become the laughing stock of everyone.
"Yun Fan, after entering the Secret Realm, your identity as the Saint Lady's disciple will be useless. At that time, don't blame your Senior Brother for being blind! "
Thinking of these things, Nie An's blood surged, and his body trembled slightly with anger. Today, he would vent all the anger that he had suppressed for months and return the pain that he had suppressed in his heart to Yun Fan a hundredfold!
Just as Mo Qian was about to send people to the Saint Lady's Mansion, and Nie An and the others had their own thoughts, two long rainbows flew from the horizon, attracting the attention of the people on the ground.
Some people with sharp eyes had already seen the appearance of the people who came.
In front of them was a beauty in a fluttering red dress. She was so beautiful that she looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.
Following closely behind was a handsome young man in a black robe. His back was straight, and he looked like a perfect match with the beauty in front of him.
Someone on the ground shouted, "It's the Saint Lady and Yun Fan!"
"Welcome, Saint Lady!"
Then, the crowd cheered and prostrated themselves.
Yun Fan stood beside the Saint Lady. Looking at the spectacular scene, his body and mind were also shocked.
