Chapter 82 Competition

"A lucky break?!"

Xu Li's lips twitched slightly. Even for a Bone Forging Realm martial artist who had lost his weapon, it would be extremely difficult to fight and kill him.

Not to mention, Lu Ming is only at the Tendon Refining stage, not yet at the Great Perfection stage!

Standing beside Xu Li, the young genius Lin Feng could not hide his shock upon hearing these words.

He was a martial artist with the talent of the highest level of the Bone Refining Realm, but he had no confidence whatsoever that he could kill a Bone Forging Realm cultivator head-on.

He was confident that he could contend with those at the Bone Forging Realm for a period of time, which already earned him the praise of many powerful figures.

He couldn't imagine how Lu Ming, with only a mere Tendon Refining cultivation level, could achieve such a record.

Wu Qingfeng snorted twice and said smugly, "How about that? Now you understand why I helped him become a promising disciple of the Dao lineage, right?"

"Lu Ming has an impeccable background, excellent character, and outstanding talent. I can guarantee that he is definitely the future of the Myriad Manifestations Sect."

Xu Li's gaze sharpened, and he said solemnly, "So you really intend to support him as a promising successor to the Daoist lineage!"

I disagree!

"He can now refine his tendons and fight beyond his level to forge bones, but can he fight to temper his filth in the process of forging bones? Even a top-tier genius can't do that!"

"I still maintain that cultivation is fundamental."

"There is still a considerable amount of time before the entrance examination for the Wuxiang Dao Sect next year. I will do my best to find treasures to improve Lin Feng's innate talent."

"Once Lin Feng can raise his innate talent to the upper-level B, he will become a top-level genius."

"Even if he fails, his Grade B physique is still much stronger than Lu Ming's, which can guarantee that he will become a Tempering Realm martial artist in eleven years."

Wu Qingfeng frowned and said, "Why are you so stubborn? I already told you, Lu Ming is already a top-tier genius after his talent has improved!"

Xu Li snorted coldly. Even after learning the truth, he still objected. Firstly, because he didn't think highly of Lu Ming's talent and aptitude, and secondly, because he had already accepted the money.

Since he was unwilling to refund the money, he naturally had to do his best to push Lin Feng to the throne of the successor of the Daoist lineage.

Moreover, Lu Ming was discovered by Wu Qingfeng. If he truly becomes a promising candidate for the Dao lineage, and even eventually passes the entrance examination for the Wuxiang Dao lineage, Wu Qingfeng will benefit the most.

However, if this person were Lin Feng, he would be the biggest beneficiary; this is a struggle for interests.

"Since you also have someone to recommend, let's compete freely!"

He made his statement, then turned and left with Lin Feng.

Wu Qingfeng frowned as he watched the two leave.

He vaguely understood Xu Li's thoughts and sighed inwardly. Everyone in the sect had their own interests and ideas. How wonderful it would be if they could unite as one!

He grew up in the Wanxiang Sect, which had fallen from first-class to second-class. He sincerely did not want it to eventually become third-class, or even worse, unacceptable!

However, all he could do was improve Lu Ming's physical constitution so that his talent could reach Grade A, and that was all.

Being a top-tier genius doesn't guarantee passing the entrance exam for the Wuxiang Dao Sect; it only means you have a chance.

I hope Lu Ming will succeed!

Wu Qingfeng turned and handed a token to Lu Ming: "This is your disciple token, and I'll have someone bring you several sets of core disciple clothes later."

"By the way, as a core disciple, you receive a reward of one hundred contribution points. If you wish to exchange them for treasures, you can go to the sect's outer treasury to choose them."

"Focus on your cultivation and don't slack off!"

After saying this, Wu Qingfeng turned and left.

Lu Ming felt a warmth in his heart as he felt Wu Qingfeng's care, and for some reason, he thought of Qin Zhonghai and Wei Jinlin.

Although he came from humble beginnings, he still encountered many elders who treated him well along the way.

So much time has passed, I wonder how Qin Zhonghai's injury is? Has it been healed by the doctor?

A ruptured heart is no small matter; without the aid of a miraculous healing elixir, a martial artist at the Bone Forging Realm simply cannot survive for long. The situation is different for those at the Tempering Realm.

Lu Ming decided that once he settled in, he would go to the Tianji Pavilion in the prefectural city to pay a visit to Qin Zhonghai.

Not long after Wu Qingfeng left, a disciple from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall brought him disciple robes.

Lu Ming asked him about the sect's basic rules, as well as the locations of important places such as the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, the Transmission Hall, and the sect's outer treasury, before letting him leave.

He didn't rush out, but instead closed the courtyard gate and began cultivating with great enthusiasm.

After improving his physical constitution, he had long wanted to test the effects of cultivation, especially whether the improvement in physical constitution would affect the acquisition of martial arts experience!

Vientiane Gate, Council Hall.

At this moment, all the important figures of the Myriad Manifestations Sect have arrived.

Wan Baichuan, the sect leader of the Wanxiang Sect, had a fair complexion, neatly trimmed hair and beard, and a faint smile. His dignified demeanor was just right. He sat in the main seat and, seeing that everyone had arrived, said, "Elder Wu has recruited a martial arts genius whose overall talent has reached the upper level of the second rank. After consuming the Wanling Water, he may have already become a first-rank genius."

"I'm sure everyone knows about this."

"The sect has produced another top-tier genius. This is a good thing, a big thing!"

"Elder Wu has proposed that Lu Ming be established as a promising successor to the Daoist lineage. What are your thoughts?"

The deputy sect leader of the Myriad Manifestations Sect was a beautiful woman, middle-aged, with a voluptuous figure and dignified expression. Upon hearing this, her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the law enforcement elder, Xu Li.

Xu Li had already intended to speak, but seeing her signal, he immediately said without hesitation, "Sect Leader, I think this is inappropriate!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingfeng coldly snorted, "Even a top-tier genius isn't suitable as a successor to the lineage? Are you really going to force Lin Feng into the position?"

Elder Chen Zhuo of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, Elder Gu Yue of the Transmission Hall, and others exchanged glances but remained silent.

Xu Li, with a resolute expression, slowly said, "First of all, although Lu Ming has improved his physical constitution after drinking the Myriad Spirit Water, it is still unknown whether his overall talent has reached Grade A."

"The hut where the Martial Arts Department tests talent is extremely expensive and is only used once a year at this time. Lu Ming cannot be tested in a short period of time, and we urgently need to establish a lineage of disciples."

"If Lu Ming's talent still fails to reach Grade A, then Lin Feng is naturally better, since Lin Feng's innate talent is Grade B, which provides a basic guarantee for his cultivation."

"That's the first point."

"Secondly, Lu Ming is new to the sect, who knows if he has any ulterior motives?"

"In contrast, Lin Feng has been practicing for a long time, has excellent character, and works diligently, which is evident to all."

"Therefore, I still strongly recommend Lin Feng to be the third successor of our sect."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingfeng frowned deeply.

Xu Li's statement was clever; he didn't insist that Class A was inferior to Class B. The two points he raised were not provable in the short term.

In that case, the sect leader might have something to say about it.

Wu Qingfeng looked at Wan Baichuan with concern.

really!

Wan Baichuan looked thoughtful and slowly nodded, saying, "Elder Xu is right."

"However, Lu Ming is, after all, a top-tier genius, and under normal circumstances, he should be the first choice for a promising disciple of the Dao lineage."

"In this way, let Lu Ming and Lin Feng compete, and whoever wins will become the successor of the lineage. This way, everyone will be convinced."

Xu Li seemed to have been prepared for this result. As soon as Wan Baichuan finished speaking, he interjected, "The basic requirement for the successors of first-class sects is to reach the Bone Forging Realm."

"My Wanxiang Sect was once a first-rate sect, and although it is now a second-rate sect, it has always operated according to the standards of a first-rate sect."

"Let Lu Ming and Lin Feng compete. Whoever can break through to the Bone Forging Realm first will become the successor of the lineage."

Wu Qingfeng angrily retorted, "Xu Li, have you no shame? Lu Ming is this year's martial arts genius, while Lin Feng is a year older than Lu Ming. How can you compare them like that?"

Xu Li sneered: "The Wuxiang Dao Sect's entrance examination is held once every ten years, and they have never considered that some of the disciples will be ten years older than the newcomers!"

"In the world of martial arts, luck has always been a part of strength!"

Wu Qingfeng turned to Wan Baichuan and said, "Sect Master, I think we should give some respect to top-tier geniuses. I propose that Lu Ming and Lin Feng have a battle, and whoever wins will become the successor of the lineage."

"This is also a disadvantage for Lu Ming, since Lu Ming is at the Tendon Refining stage, while Lin Feng has already reached the Great Perfection of Tendon Refining."

"But Lu Ming was just unlucky, so he had no choice but to suffer a loss."
