“But Great Elder, I’m worried that something might go wrong on that stage.”
“Don’t worry, since he’s already a registered Alchemist of my Pill House, I’ll inform them. I believe that he won’t use his authority at that time.”
Wang Lan finally heaved a long sigh of relief after hearing the First Elder’s promise. He had been worried about this matter all this time. Since the First Elder had come forward, there should not be any major problems.
“Then 1 will thank Great Elder on behalf of my disciple.”
“It’s fine. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a young man with such drive. The younger generation is indeed becoming more and more vigorous. They’re much stronger than us back then.”
As the Great Elder spoke, he suddenly took out a ring and placed it on the table.
“This old master has nothing else to do today. I see that little friend is now at the Supreme Realm Sixth Level. I have prepared some materials and items that are usually used.”
“Grand Elder, my disciple has already taken quite a number of treasures from the pavilion.”
“This is what he deserves. It has been many years since my Pill House has seen such a talented disciple. After this Martial Arts Conference, you must let him stay in Heavenly Cloud City for a while.”
Wang Lan naturally knew what the Great Elder meant. He had been in seclusion for so many years and had never taken in a disciple. Now that such an extraordinary talent had suddenly appeared, it was a great opportunity.
“First Elder, don’t worry. I think he wouldn’t want to miss such a good opportunity. After the Forum Conference ended, he would stay.”
With Wang Lan’s guarantee, the Great Elder looked much happier. He smiled at Wang Lan and said,”That’s right. As a master, you can be considered to have done your best. From now on, you can come to the pavilion every month and receive more salary.”
“Thank you, First Elder.”
“In that case, I won’t stay any longer. As for the martial arts competition, you don’t have to take it to heart.”
“Thank you, First Elder.”
After the Great Elder finished his instructions, he left. Wang Lan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
With the Great Elder personally appearing, presumably that Kun Lun disciple would not make things too difficult for Li Yuanqing.
At this moment, Qing He ran in from outside and stopped when he saw Wang Lan and Zhao Wuming.
“President.”
“How is it?”
“The results of the Martial Arts Conference are out. The winner is Ma Changkong, nicknamed Killing Blade. That guy was already at Supreme Realm Level 8, and he was at the peak of Supreme Realm Level 8. He was very powerful.”
“In addition to his superb saber skills, he only managed to catch a flaw in his opponent. He didn’t even have the time to counterattack before he lost his chance.”
Qing He still had a lingering fear after watching the competition. He couldn’t help but worry about Li Yuanqing when he thought of Frenzied Sword’s arrogant appearance in the arena.
Although Li Yuanqing was also very powerful in his opinion, he still seemed to be a little inferior to Frenzied Sword. If the two of them were to really stand together and compare, he felt that Frenzied Sword’s chances of winning were much higher.
Wang Lan sighed softly.” It’s fine. Since he likes it, then let him be. When is the challenge?””
“In three days, in the final stage of the Martial Arts Conference, there will be a competition between Frenzied Sword and Li Yunqing.”
Qing He looked at Wang Lan worriedly.
“Senior, do you really intend to let your junior brother compete with him? That fellow of mine is very ruthless. Just now, with a slash, he directly cut off one of his senior brother’s arms. He would probably have to waste a few years of his Profound Qi.”
“Since things have come to this, there’s no room for turning back. When the time comes, I believe that he will definitely have a way to protect himself.”
The news that the winner was about to challenge the Mad Blade quickly spread throughout the city. It had been many years since Heavenly Cloud City had seen such a lively scene.
“I didn’t expect the person 1 saw this year to have such strength. He was actually able to directly challenge Frenzied Sword. Usually, he could only challenge the last few people.”
“That’s right. I heard that a genius has appeared. I don’t know how powerful he is, but no matter how talented he is, he will still be killed by Frenzied Blade. There’s nothing to look forward to if he can’t achieve anything.”
“I heard that guy is only at the sixth level of the Supreme Realm. What right does he have to challenge Frenzied Sword? It felt like he was courting death.
“What Supreme Realm Level Six? I’m afraid he can’t even enter the top ten of the Martial Arts Conference. 1 think he must have gotten in through the back door to give him this opportunity to challenge Frenzied Blade. If he really relied on his own ability, he probably wouldn’t even be able to match up to a finger of Frenzied Blade.”
The cultivators in Tianyuan City had different opinions about this. After the end of the competition, most people would choose to leave.
After all, usually, most of the Challenger League matches would have a fixed ending, so it was hard to say what else was there to watch.
The Martial Arts Conference was way ahead of the other tracks, but there was such a gimmick this year.
Although a genius youth in his twenties sounded like a dream, the huge gap in strength was there. No matter what, it was difficult to make up for it. If he wanted to graduate, he would not be able to achieve anything. Therefore, there were really not many people who were optimistic about Li Yuanqing.
Martial Arts Pavilion.
A robust disciple walked into a very wide hall with steady steps.
After he entered, he saw a white-haired old man standing with his back facing him. He slowly knelt on the ground and lowered his head.
“Master.”
“You’ve done very well. After so many years of cultivation, you’ve worked hard to win the championship of the Martial Arts Conference this time.”
“Master, don’t worry. I can already feel the faint signs of a breakthrough. 1 believe that it won’t be long before 1 can successfully break through to the ninth layer.”
The old man turned around. His face did not match his hair at all. He actually had a very young face, even younger than the guy kneeling below.
The old man slowly walked in front of him and raised his hand to help him up.
“Master, I heard that there’s a genius from the other side who’s in his twenties. A Supreme Realm sixth abnormality in his twenties is indeed talented, but aren’t they a little too anxious to push him out so early?”
The old man frowned slightly and shook his head slowly. “Me too. I just heard of the existence of such a person. The news of the Sword Dao is indeed tightly sealed. Moreover, I heard that this kid has extraordinary attainments in alchemy.”
“It’s a pity that it’s someone from the Sword Sect.”
When the old man heard his disciple say this, he couldn’t help but smile. He looked at Frenzied Blade Ma Changkong and said,”Changkong, you have a steady heart. Although this kid was a disciple of the Sword Sect, his relationship with the Pill House was not shallow. During the martial arts competition, be careful with your hands. Don’t hurt his Dao foundation.”
“Master, don’t worry. I also want to see how much a twenty-year-old sixth stage Supreme Realm expert will grow in a hundred years.”
“Changkong, don’t you think that it’s too unfair for Master to arrange such a competition for you?”
“I won’t!” Ma Changkong answered quickly,” I know Master must have his reasons for doing this.”
“Good! However, one should not underestimate it. One had to know how treacherous the Sword Sect was. Check your imagination and be more vigilant.”
“Master, don’t worry. I’m not the kind of person who underestimates his enemy..”
