Upon hearing this, Fang Yunzi was completely stunned.
The other elders and sect leader also looked surprised, but it was all an act.
"Why? Do you know that the True Martial Hall of the True Martial Academy is a sacred place that all cultivators in the world yearn for? How could you refuse it?"
Fang Yunzi looked incredulous.
Lu Chen remained calm and said leisurely, "Where you cultivate is not the same as where you cultivate. The path of cultivation relies on yourself, not on external things! Besides, I am quite good here. My master loves me very much, and I have no reason to leave her."
Now it was Lu Ziqi's turn to perform.
"My good disciple, I am deeply moved to hear your words!"
Lu Ziqi almost burst into tears, but after holding it in for a long time, she couldn't manage to say anything and had to give up. So she said with a serious face, "But how could you be so willful and reckless? Zhenwu Hall, what kind of place is that? Do you even know?"
As Lu Ziqi spoke, she secretly winked at Lu Chen.
"The acting is terrible!"
Lu Chen secretly complained that the one who had silently transmitted his voice to him just now was Lu Ziqi. He wondered what method she had used, since no one else seemed to react, which showed how clever she was.
To his surprise, Lu Ziqi also wanted to go to the Zhenwu Academy. However, since she was not a disciple of the younger generation, it would be quite difficult for her to go.
However, this time it presents an opportunity.
Lu Chen didn't care at all; having another familiar person meant having another powerful backer.
I'd be happy to lend a hand.
"A sacred cultivation ground for humans! Didn't this envoy just say that? I understand, but I still don't want to go!"
Lu Chen remained calm and said, "The True Martial Hall is so powerful that it must have many geniuses. As the saying goes, it's better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. Even if I went there, I might not be able to catch up with others. There's no need for that. It's fine here!"
"hehe!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yunzi immediately laughed and said, "It seems you don't have much confidence in your own talent! Very good, there are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Your mindset is commendable! However, I think that even if you enter the True Martial Hall, you might not necessarily lose to anyone!"
"Then I won't go. I'll go if my master goes, but I won't go anywhere if my master doesn't go!"
Lu Chen shook his head, his face resolute.
"My disciple, you're being ridiculous!"
Lu Ziqi shouted sternly, but inwardly she was overjoyed.
This apprentice is good; it wasn't a waste of time to take him on!
