Chapter 370: The Bet
After listening to Zheng Lushan's words, the old man frowned, seeming to be thinking.
"There is some truth. The elders are at loggerheads, but the two of them have decided the winner. This can indeed be used to determine the candidate." After thinking for a while, the old man nodded slowly.
"No, how can the future head of the family make such a hasty decision? The strength of his current cultivation does not mean anything. If one uses martial arts to judge virtue, how is it any different from barbarians?" Zheng Xiao flatly refused.
"Humph, Zheng Xiao, don't think that just because you are the head of the family, you can cover the sky with one hand. You can't do this, and you can't do that. What do you want? Do you still have a group of elders in your eyes?" Zheng Lushan put a big hat on him.
"Zheng Xiao, although you are the head of the family, major matters like this cannot be decided by you alone."
The old man turned his head and gave Zheng Xiao a cold look.
"Father does not mean this. There is no need for Grandpa to be angry. We are just discussing the matter. Although our Tianwu Dynasty founded the country by force, we do not judge everything based on martial arts. If the majestic head of the family is just a brainless and reckless man, then wouldn't he let it go?
Are you kidding me?" Zheng Yunlan said.
"Then if he is a scholar who is powerless, wouldn't he also be laughed at?" the old man sneered.
"Senior's words are wrong. If you are a martial arts sect, there is nothing wrong with judging your superiority based on martial arts. But your Zheng family is a famous family that has been passed down for thousands of years. If you also judge your superiority based on martial arts, in the end you will choose a brave and foolhardy one.
Reckless man, is this honorable?"
Shen Li suddenly spoke, walked forward and smiled.
"Who are you? When did it become your turn for an outsider to intervene in the affairs of my Zheng family?" The old man glanced sideways at Shen Li and said coldly.
"This is Zheng Yue's friend, an elite disciple of Xiaoyao Sect." Zheng Xiao said.
"Elite disciple?" The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and then waved his hand: "For the sake of you being a disciple of the Immortal Sect, I will not hold you accountable and leave quickly. This is not the place you should stay."
"Let me say the last thing, seniors, and this one, you support Zheng Li as the successor simply because he is better than Zheng Yue in martial arts. In fact, in my opinion, this gap is nothing at all.
Give Zheng Yue some time, he can still do it." Shen Li said.
"What a joke. Is it possible that we have to wait three years for him to catch up?" Zheng Lushan sneered.
"Why three years? Three days are enough." Shen Li smiled slightly.
"Three days?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Not to mention the old man and Zheng Lushan, even Zheng Xiao and others were inconceivable. Now Zheng Yue is only at the eighth level of cultivation. If he wants to break through to the Perfect Martial Realm in three days, it is simply impossible.
It's just a fool's dream.
"It's ridiculous. Martial arts cultivation is taught step by step, step by step, and you can upgrade to two levels in three days. This is simply impossible!" Zheng Lushan sneered.
"Don't think that others can see that Zheng Li's true energy is extremely weak. He clearly used some enlightenment method to forcibly improve it. If this is possible, then we can also do it. When the time comes, it is not certain who will win." Shen Li sneered.
.
"you...."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Zheng Lushan and Zheng Li suddenly changed, obviously Shen Li was right.
Shen Li could see that there was something wrong with Zheng Li from the very beginning. He might have used some heresy to forcibly improve his level. The power gained in this way would be even worse than if he used abundant resources to forcibly improve his level.
Not to mention letting Zheng Yue ascend to Dzogchen, even to the ninth level, defeating Zheng Li is not a problem.
Zheng Lushan's eyes narrowed slightly and flashed. Now Shen Li suddenly made a move, causing the situation to become deadlocked. This matter was originally difficult, but now Shen Li intervened again and made this request. He couldn't refuse at all.
The old man also frowned. In the situation in front of him, if Zheng Li was forced to become the heir, Zheng Xiao would not agree at all. Moreover, although Zheng Xiao was his junior, he was the head of the family after all. If he became tougher, Zheng Xiao would not agree. Will compromise.
"The matter of the successor is of great importance. I think it should be decided by a vote of the elders." Zheng Xiao said.
"Humph, if the votes are tied, what's the decision?" Zheng Lushan shouted.
"That's because someone hasn't arrived yet. Just wait for a while." Zheng Xiao said.
"You still want to delay? Stop wishful thinking. Now that Zheng Li is strong and has defeated Zheng Yue, what qualifications do you have to make irresponsible remarks here?" Zheng Lushan said.
"It seems that we are back to this problem again, how about we make a bet?" Shen Li smiled slightly and suddenly spoke.
"What kind of bet are you making?" Zheng Lushan frowned, wondering what kind of medicine Shen Li was selling in his gourd.
"Since you said that martial arts will determine the superiority, then give me three days. If I can make Zheng Yue reach the Perfect Realm of Zhenwu in three days, then you must agree that the final result of this matter will be decided by the elders." Shen Li said.
"In three days, from the eighth stage to the Great Perfection, do you think you are a god?" Zheng Li sneered.
"Just asking, do you dare to bet?" Shen Li was straightforward.
"What if you guys jump over the wall in a hurry and ask some master to forcibly give him enlightenment and spend your life to teach him?" Zheng Li said.
"If this is the case, we lose." Shen Li said.
"Okay, I promise, if he doesn't use the method of enlightenment, he can advance to the Great Perfection of the True Martial Realm in three days. We agree to leave this matter to the elders until the final result is produced." Zheng Li shouted.
"But if not, we want to see what else you have to say." Zheng Li sneered.
Shen Li smiled slightly and did not answer.
"Okay, that's it. I'll give you three days. If Zheng Yue can be promoted to the Great Perfection of the True Martial Realm, I will ask the elders to vote again and decide on the position of successor. You can take care of it yourself."
The old man took a deep look at Shen Li, and after saying a word, he rose directly into the sky and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"In three days, I want to see what tricks you can come up with!"
Zheng Li and Zheng Lushan sneered, said nothing more, and got on their horses.
"Walk!"
Zheng Lushan shouted loudly, and the accompanying team turned around and headed back to the city.
"Are you...really sure?"
Zheng Xiao and others really couldn't believe that they could have such ability, so they couldn't help but ask.
"It depends on manpower. We can only fight for the last three days. If not, what can we do? Your ancestor and Zheng Lushan jointly put pressure. It is impossible for Zheng Yue to become the heir." Shen Li said.
"That's right, but what you said is a bit too big. It will be too difficult in three days." Zheng Xiao said.
