Originally, Qing Yangzi didn't pay much attention to this disciple of his junior sister. Although he heard that a genius had emerged from the Third Branch, Qing Yangzi didn't think much about it. Until now, when he learned that Ye Chen had entered the Xiantian realm in just five years and was confident that he could form a pill within a year, Qing Yangzi had other thoughts.

As his eldest disciple, Feng Shao played a very good role model in the sect, and was able to unite fellow disciples, love and help each other, and was indeed a rare talent. The only thing that made Qingyangzi feel dissatisfied was that Feng Shao's qualifications were a bit ordinary.

In fact, although Feng Shao's aptitude is not as good as Ye Chen's, it is much better than the average person. Most of the cultivators can only stay in the realm of Tongmai throughout their lives, and very few can enter the realm of Xiantian. And being able to advance to the realm of Xiantian within 30 years is already considered a genius. Originally, when Taiwei Sect was still declining, Qingyangzi felt that being able to accept a disciple with Feng Shao's aptitude was already a great bargain.

However, when Taiwei Sect was gradually promoted to a second-rate sect and had the potential to be promoted to a first-rate sect, Qingyangzi suddenly realized that Feng Shao's qualifications seemed to be insufficient to shoulder the burden of revitalizing the sect.

If he hadn't come across someone better, Qing Yangzi would probably just think about it. But when he saw Ye Chen's extraordinary talent, Qing Yangzi's mind suddenly became active.

Although Ye Chen is the disciple of the junior sister, it doesn't matter. As the head of the sect, he can completely teach the disciple on behalf of the junior sister. At that time, although the two of them are not master and disciple in name, they are master and disciple in reality, which is no different from directly accepting a disciple.

Many sects have similar practices when facing similar situations. Most of the disciples with the best qualifications will be trained as the next sect leader. In addition to ensuring the sect's status in the world of cultivation, this can also prevent internal strife within the sect. When the strength of the sect leader can suppress everyone, naturally no one will covet the position of the sect leader. Not only that, this can also convey the message of "selecting the best" to other disciples, prompting them to work harder.

It can be said that letting Ye Chen take the position of the Holy Son has many advantages. The only problem is that it is too unfair to Feng Shao. If Ye Chen is allowed to become the Holy Son, Feng Shao will lose his reputation not only in the sect, but also in the entire Dongzhou.

However, Qing Yangzi felt a little reluctant to give up Ye Chen, the genius.

After thinking about it, Qing Yangzi came up with this idea. Let the two compete, and the winner can take the position of the Holy Son. In this way, if Feng Shao loses, he can only blame himself for his lack of strength, and not his master.

After hearing the master's decision, Feng Shao naturally understood the master's plan, and his heart sank. In fact, Feng Shao had discovered the weakness of his master's character when he became his disciple.

Hesitant to make decisions, ambitious, unsure of what to do, and easily fickle.

But Qingyangzi is his master after all. Even though he has many faults, Feng Shao, as his disciple, cannot say much and can only give him reminders indirectly.

But now it seems that the old problem of this master has come back. Qing Yangzi thought that this decision could take both sides into consideration, but he never thought that when he said this, some things had already changed.

Feng Shao secretly sighed in his heart. If there was a better candidate at the beginning, it is estimated that the master would not choose such a person as the next head!

But what Feng Shao is more concerned about now is the change in the luck of Qing Yangzi and Ye Chen. After Qing Yangzi made this decision, the luck of both of them had a hint of transformation, which made Feng Shao make a bold guess in his heart.

It seems that Qing Yangzi intends to stand on Ye Chen's side, and after getting Qing Yangzi's support, Ye Chen will become the true "son of destiny".

After Qing Yangzi spoke, Du Yuanxi was also very surprised. She couldn't help but send a message to Qing Yangzi: "Master, the position of the Holy Son cannot be taken lightly! Have you forgotten the little princess of Yunjian Pavilion?"

Qing Yangzi replied confidently: "Don't worry, if Ye Chen is really more talented than Feng Shao, I'm sure Yunjian Pavilion will be more willing to change the person to marry!"

Three years ago, Yunjian Pavilion suddenly approached Taiwei Sect and proposed a marriage. In terms of strength, Yunjian Pavilion was much stronger than Taiwei Sect, so Qingyangzi was flattered and readily agreed to arrange a marriage between Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran, the daughter of the Pavilion Master of Yunjian Pavilion. After the marriage, Taiwei Sect received strong support from Yunjian Pavilion, and its strength further increased.

Qing Yangzi had never seen the daughter of the Pavilion Master of Yunjian Pavilion, but he had heard that this little girl was extremely talented and beautiful. With Feng Shao's talent, it was considered a high marriage. Qing Yangzi had always been worried that if Yunjian Pavilion one day looked down on Feng Shao and cancelled the engagement, then Taiwei Sect would surely become the laughing stock of the entire Dongzhou. But now, Qing Yangzi was not worried. Because Ye Chen's talent was excellent, even if he was not as good as Lin Xiaoran, it would not be too far behind. If he changed to such a marriage partner, Yunjian Pavilion would probably not object.

Qingyangzi's idea was beautiful and his words made sense, but Du Yuanxi felt that it was not that simple. You have to know that three years ago, Taiwei Sect had just been promoted to a second-rate sect. Not to mention compared with a big force like Yunjian Pavilion, even compared with its subordinate Thirteen Halls, it was far inferior. Such a big force took the initiative to propose a marriage. Did they really see the potential of Taiwei Sect? I'm afraid not?

Although Yunjian Pavilion praised Taiwei Sect highly when the marriage contract was signed, Du Yuanxi did not think that Taiwei Sect could catch the eye of Yunjian Pavilion. They were just being polite to you, you wouldn't take it seriously, right?

Du Yuanxi felt uneasy, but since the head brother had already made the decision, she could only remain silent and watch how things developed.

Feng Shao turned his head and looked at Ye Chen, his expression normal, as if he didn't think much about it. He smiled at Ye Chen and said, "Then I wonder how Junior Brother Ye plans to compete?"

Ye Chen said proudly: "Isn't that easy? Just compete directly with the last match, and let life and death be decided by fate!"

Feng Shao frowned slightly: "It's just a discussion between fellow disciples, let's stop here!"

"Brother Feng," Ye Chen said with a half-smile, "People like us who practice cultivation must be brave and diligent, and go against the will of heaven. If we are so afraid of fighting life and death, how can we achieve the right result?"

Feng Shao sighed: "In that case, then please let Junior Brother Ye make a move!"

When Ye Chen took out his long sword that was shining with red light, a strange light flashed in Feng Shao's eyes, but then disappeared in his eyes.

In this battle, Ye Chen is fully confident that he can defeat this senior brother of the sect and take the position of the Holy Son. He has been waiting for this day for a long time, because he knows very well that only by sitting on the position of the Holy Son can he have greater power and obtain more resources! Even all the young disciples of the entire sect will follow his lead!

When Ye Chen thought of the bright future that was about to come, he could hardly hide the smile on his face!

However, just as Ye Chen was about to attack, Feng Shao suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute!"

Feng Shao's shout happened to happen when Ye Chen was about to attack but hadn't yet, almost blocking Ye Chen's blood flow. Ye Chen suppressed his turbulent blood and said angrily: "Feng Shao, if you want to fight, then fight, why play this trick?"

Qing Yangzi couldn't help but frown slightly when he saw this scene, but he said nothing.

Feng Shao glanced at Ye Chen with a playful look and said, "I'm sorry, Junior Brother Ye, I just suddenly remembered that if I lose this competition, I will lose my position as the Holy Son, but if you lose, you will not lose anything. So isn't this competition a bit unfair?"

Ye Chen was stunned. He had done this kind of gambling fight without any capital many times before. Anyway, if he won, he would get something, and if he lost, he would not lose anything, so why not? Many disciples were not careful at the time and were cheated by him in this way, but who told them not to think about it before the fight? So they could only complain afterwards.

But Feng Shao knew the key point. Originally, he really didn't care about winning anything through gambling, but when he saw Ye Chen's sword and thought of his master's attitude, Feng Shao decided to think more about himself this time.

Feng Shao pointed at the long sword in his hand and said, "Junior Brother Ye, you can use this sword as a bet. If Junior Brother Ye wins, then the position of the Holy Son will belong to Junior Brother Ye. But if Senior Brother wins, then this sword will be Senior Brother's. What do you think, Junior Brother Ye?"

"This..." Ye Chen hesitated. Although he was very confident, he felt deep down that when he made the bet, he would suffer a loss.

This is Ye Chen’s characteristic. If he doesn’t gain any advantage, he will suffer a loss.

Seeing Ye Chen's hesitation, Feng Shao asked with a smile: "Junior Brother Ye came here with great momentum, but he was speechless when talking about the stakes. Could it be that he came here to do business without any capital? Forgive me for being frank, but Junior Brother Ye's habit is not very good!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly and said, "Let's bet! If you win, then this 'Red Dragon Sword' will belong to you!"

Feng Shao nodded and said with a smile: "Then Junior Brother Ye, please come in!"

Ye Chen looked at Feng Shao's smiling face and felt that he looked disgusting. He cursed in his heart, then raised his right hand, without even doing the opening move, and directly used the Flowing Fire Sword Technique from the Eighteen Sword Techniques of Taiwei, stabbing straight into Feng Shao's chest.

Feng Shao waved his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand. He waved it casually, blocking Ye Chen's sword, and took a step back, saying: "Junior Brother Ye, why did you attack without even a greeting? Have you forgotten the rules of the sect duel?"

The onlookers couldn't help but secretly shake their heads when they heard this. After all, the sect duel was a little different from the real fight. Saluting was the most basic etiquette, but Ye Chen didn't even care about this and attacked brazenly. Not only was he rude, but he was also shameless.

No matter how strong such a person is, it is difficult for him to take on important responsibilities.
