A long silence followed!
The surrounding people became increasingly noisy.
"Follow me!"
Si Tianyi led Xiao Feng into his main hall.
"Sect Leader, is there anything else?"
"Would you like to go out and explore the world?"
ah! ?
This sudden question left Xiao Feng at a loss.
what?
You want me to get lost?
No way?
"The sect is great, I don't want to leave!"
After Xiao Feng arrived in this world, the Spirit Sword Sect was the first place he settled down, so he naturally loved it deeply.
Si Tianyi rolled his eyes.
"Who said you could leave? You will always be a disciple of my Spirit Sword Sect!"
"After this sect competition, the seven major sects will meet on the agreed-upon date!"
"According to past practice, each sect will send three elite disciples to lead the team, along with some ordinary disciples!"
Understood!
This is to make me do the work!
A sly glint flashed in Xiao Feng's eyes.
We can't work for nothing!
Si Tianyi seemed oblivious to Xiao Feng's expression and continued talking to himself.
"Over the past century, my Spirit Sword Sect has gradually declined. Although there has been no internal strife, internal conflicts have been constant, and our voice among the seven major sects has become increasingly weak..."
"Sect Leader, please speak plainly!"
Xiao Feng deliberately pretended not to understand, clearly wanting the person in front of him to make a request.
Then I can just naturally...
hey-hey!
"The sect's revival is just around the corner. If you go, you will become the next sect leader!"
Nonsense!
What's so good about this sect leader?
He was imprisoned in a cage his entire life!
Do I think I'm stupid?
Xiao Feng shook his head without hesitation.
"Thank you for your consideration, Sect Leader, but I have no interest!"
No...no interest?
Si Tianyi thought he had misheard.
But Xiao Feng's actions struck him like a blow to the head.
After saying that, Xiao Feng turned around and prepared to leave!
I'm really not interested!
"Wait, what do you want?"
Ha ha!
I knew it!
Xiao Feng was overjoyed, but the system's complaints followed immediately.
[You've finally said what you wanted to hear, haven't you?]
cut!
I'm a mercenary!
It's perfectly fair and just to get paid to do things!
reserved!
Xiao Feng straightened his robes.
"Sect Leader, what kind of person do you mean by that? How could I possibly kick someone when they're down?"
"I really want to participate in such an important event as the sect competition, but the key is that I just can't muster the interest!"
Si Tianyi went completely intoxicated.
"Don't say that, why don't we go and take a look? Just in case!"
"There's no 'what if'!"
As he spoke, Xiao Feng waved his hand again, wanting to leave, but Si Tianyi grabbed Xiao Feng's arm, completely abandoning his airs as the sect leader.
"How about this, as long as you participate, you can choose any prize from my treasure vault, regardless of your ranking!"
Plan accomplished!
Xiao Feng was overjoyed.
But she still remained reserved!
"Sect Leader, this is so inappropriate!"
"There's nothing wrong with it!"
"Then it's settled!"
What?!
Seeing Xiao Feng's cheerful expression, Si Tianyi suddenly realized something.
Kid!
Are you kidding me?
Xiao Feng then continued speaking.
"Sect Leader, I will naturally come here to choose things when I need them!"
Watching Xiao Feng's departing figure, the sect leader was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
Only then did he realize that he had been completely tricked by Xiao Feng!
That kid!
Si Tianyi chuckled softly.
The student surpasses the teacher!
The news of Xiao Feng's participation in the competition spread quickly, and Ouyang Lie was the first to arrive at the sect leader's hall.
"Sect Leader, didn't Xiao Feng lose some of his cultivation? Why are you still letting him participate?"
Ouyang Lie had already made up his mind to send Yueyang, but now that he's here, the plan has changed again.
"Junior brother, senior brother has his own considerations. It's happened many times already, but the Spirit Sword Sect still hasn't shown its strength!"
"This time, we must place all our hopes on Xiao Feng!"
Ouyang Lie was displeased upon hearing this.
After all, he had already taken good care of Xiao Feng, not to mention personally sparring with him.
Which elder could do that?
Which disciple will be able to enjoy this?
Why are you being so lenient with us!
Isn't this outrageous?
"Sect Leader, I think..."
Si Tianyi simply waved his hand.
"Do as my senior brother says. Do you remember the sect's crystal ball, the one used to test spiritual roots?"
Ouyang Lie wanted to retort, but suddenly heard Si Tianyi change the subject.
Why bring this up?
"I just retested that kid's spiritual root, and the crystal ball shattered!"
What?
Ouyang Lie was dumbfounded.
He knows how the crystal ball works!
It's simply a matter of using the spiritual energy emitted by the spiritual root to drive the changes in the myriad spiritual energies within the crystal ball.
This results in various colors and halos.
Shattered!
That represents an extremely terrifying power!
What kind of spiritual root could be so strong!
Top quality?
That's impossible!
Although the Spirit Sword Sect is gradually declining, there are still many people with top-grade spiritual roots in the sect.
Could it be...?
Ouyang Lie's eyes widened in surprise.
"Senior brother, could it be that once-in-a-millennium opportunity..."
Si Tianyi nodded, but then shook his head after a moment.
"I don't know either. If that's really the case, then he's truly a rare talent!"
Ouyang Lie's heart burned with passion.
"Honestly, the sect should have discovered this long ago; how could they have kept it buried for so long..."
Si Tianyi smiled.
"Fine, whatever happens, Xiao Feng's spot is decided. Tomorrow will be the final battle!"
Xiao Feng vs. Zhao Yuwei!
A battle between fellow disciples!
Ouyang Lie was even more enthusiastic.
"I can't wait!"
"No matter who wins, they will represent our Spirit Sword Sect in the battle. Junior brother, don't forget what I told you!"
Ouyang Lie nodded. He was just straightforward, not stupid, and naturally he could hear the warning in those words.
"Understood, Senior Brother!"
Back at his thatched cottage, Xiao Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
He remembered that he had tricked the sect leader out of a treasure today. Although he hadn't chosen it yet, the treasure was practically in his hands.
As the sect leader of the Spirit Sword Sect, Si Tianyi naturally possesses profound knowledge and skills.
At that time...
As he pondered this, Xiao Feng closed his eyes in delight.
However, just then, a shout suddenly came from outside the door.
"Kid, get out here!"
Such a short temper?
Ouyang Lie!
Xiao Feng touched his nose in surprise.
I don't think I did anything wrong.
Why get angry for no reason?
With that, Xiao Feng opened the door to the thatched hut.
"Elder Ouyang, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Enough talk, let's get to the riverbank!"
Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Xiao Feng rolled his eyes.
It's so late, why are you still practicing?
This is outrageous!
"Elder Ouyang, it's getting late, perhaps..."
"Either go now, or I'll beat you up before you go. The choice is yours!"
Pooh!
What's the point of even choosing?!
Xiao Feng had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Walk!"
The two landed one after the other on the riverbank where they had fought earlier.
"Elder, I'm fast enough, and you're strong enough. We can't break each other's moves!"
Ouyang Lie smacked his chest twice.
"Come on, hit me!"
