Another battle over Taoism was staged in the dojo at the top of Cedar Peak.
This time, to the surprise of many people, Li Muchen also participated.
Moreover, it ranked among the top ten in the debate on Taoism!
As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation.
"Although Junior Brother Li is a newcomer, he is extremely talented and has astonishing kendo skills. He seems to have something in his pocket. Who can hold him down?"
Some people lamented.
"So what if you don't understand the ways of the world? As long as you are strong enough, you can stand out!"
Many people were excited and happy for Li Muchen.
"What do you know? It's the Peak Master who has spoken this time! Otherwise, no matter how many records he sets in the trial place, any excuse he can find will prevent him from participating in this Dao debate."
Some people who knew the inside story sneered.
Is there any peerless figure in the sect?
lack!
But there is no shortage of guys who are at the Xiaoyao Realm level.
It seems that we are on the eternal path, with incomparable scenery and a high status, but the happy realm is nothing more than the first realm of eternity.
And everyone knows that on the eternal road, there are obstacles every step of the way, and even those peerless figures may not be able to break through even if they spend thousands of years.
Of course Li Muchen is very dazzling and powerful.
If you don't understand the ways of the world, you will definitely suffer a lot in the future.
Not to mention those old monsters from the sect’s Tianjun, even if they find some Taoist masters from the Infinite Realm and the Infinite Realm, they can suppress him!
In the final analysis, no matter how unnatural the Xiaoyao Realm is, it is not very important in the eyes of Tianjun.
Not to mention, there are a lot of powerful Xiaoyao Realm characters in the inner sect. Without a Xiaoyao Realm character, can the sect be able to finish the game?
Then if Li Muchen didn't worship before the sect, wouldn't the sect be in good shape?
Su Yi heard these comments and did not take them seriously.
But that night, the elder Yun Husheng came to find him.
"Xiao Li, you performed very well."
Yun Husheng smiled and praised, "Everyone in the sect looks up to you with admiration. From now on, you are destined to have a place in the sect's ancestor hall."
While drinking, Su Yi said: "If you have something to say, elders, you might as well speak up."
"Haha, not bad, really good, you can already tell that I have something to do here."
Yun Husheng laughed heartily, "The so-called insight into world affairs is knowledge, and understanding of human relations is writing, and the same is true for spiritual practice. Those who do not understand human relations are the most unpopular, and they are also the most likely to cause unreasonable disasters."
After a pause, he looked at Su Yi and said seriously, "We hope you can give in for the selection of true disciples of the Ancestral Master Hall in one month."
Su Yi remained silent.
Last year, Yun Husheng also said something similar.
But that time, he was asked to give up participating in the inner sect's debate on Taoism.
But now, it was to make him give up his qualification to participate in the selection of true disciples in the Ancestral Master Hall.
Yun Husheng looked kind and said, "As compensation, I have prepared a generous gift for you. You will definitely be one of the true disciples of the Patriarch Hall next year."
"In addition, as an exception, we will also arrange for you a first-class cave heaven paradise, three thousand eternal fine gold, sixteen Taoist servants, and a token to enter and exit the nine sutra collection towers at will."
After talking eloquently, Yun Husheng said, "I have worked so hard to earn this kind of treatment for you, and it only allows you to enter the Patriarch Hall one year later. Such conditions are simply generous to the heavens!"
Yun Husheng was not exaggerating.
Such compensation is really not available to ordinary Xiaoyaojing.
No matter how much Yun Husheng rejected and looked down on Su Yi in his heart, even he had to admit that Su Yi was very strong!
He is so powerful that as long as he participates in this Grandmaster Hall competition, he can securely get a spot as a true disciple!
Because of this, Yun Husheng came as a guest and offered such a generous offer.
Su Yi took a sip of wine and said, "What if I refuse?"
Yun Husheng didn't show the slightest hint of anger, and sighed: "You are so clueless, do you really think I'm here to beg you?"
Su Yi said: "Please give me some advice from the elders."
Yun Husheng said calmly: "If you encounter a lump like you, you can't hear anything beyond the meaning, so I'll just make it clear."
"The quota for the three true disciples of the Ancestral Master Hall this time has already been determined. Even if you participate in it, the final result is destined to be eliminated!"
Su Yi raised his eyebrows, "I won, can I still be eliminated?"
Yun Husheng's eyes looked pitiful, as if he were looking at a fool, "The outcome of the Dao Contest is very important, but the character assessment is also important. Do you think the Patriarch Hall will accept an inexperienced disciple as a true disciple?"
Su Yi whispered: "I see, if you say so, the elder doesn't need to come to me to negotiate compensation."
Yun Husheng couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead. He really encountered an elm knot that didn't bloom. Did he really not understand or was he pretending not to understand?
Yun Husheng was too lazy to say anything else and stood up, "I'll give you face. You have to ask for it. If you don't want it, it will fall to the ground and you can't pick it up again."
With that said, he put the storage bag containing various compensations on the table and left.
"Take it away." Su Yi said.
Yun Husheng stamped his feet, turned his head sharply, and smiled, "You really don't want to lose face?"
Su Yi picked up the storage bag, stepped forward and stuffed it into Yun Husheng's hand, "Face is earned by oneself, not given by others."
Yun Husheng's eyes were cold and his eyebrows were full of anger.
But in the end, he smiled and said, "In the past years, the sect has not lacked people like you. What do you think they ended up with?"
Yun Husheng thought to himself and answered: "It's so stupid."
After that, he strode away.
Su Yi could see that Yun Hu was really angry at this elder. But this time, he can't let it go!
Because according to the rules of the sect, only the true disciples of the Ancestral Master Hall are eligible to participate in next year's "Jiu Yao Taoist Meeting".
If you give in this time, you will have no chance to participate in the Jiuyao Taoist Association next year.
Su Yi also knew that the reason why Yun Husheng came to negotiate with him and gave him such a generous compensation was because he was worried that his existence would squeeze out the quota to participate in the Jiuyao Taoist Association.
Of course, even if you refuse, the other party will still have ways to eliminate you.
This is called courtesy first and then fighting.
Toast but not eat?
Then drink as a penalty!
Unfortunately, what Yun Husheng didn't know was that Su Yi came to Qingye Sword Sect to practice for the sake of getting a quota to participate in the "Jiu Yao Taoist Association".
If you can't get it, everything will be meaningless!
Therefore, this is not a matter of bowing or not, Su Yi will never give in!
…
Inside a palace.
After hearing Yun Husheng's report, Ancestor Duya couldn't help frowning and snorting, "You don't know what to do!"
Yun Husheng smiled and said, "An elm knot who is obsessed with cultivation is destined to make no waves." On the side of Ancestor Duya, a man in brocade clothes sat, and said displeasedly: "Uncle Master, why are you so polite to that bastard?
He has no background and no backing. In my opinion, if we just put him in cold storage, not many people in the sect would have any objections!
"
The man in brocade clothes is named "Wang Yuan".
A top figure among the inner disciples.
He will also participate in the assessment of the true disciples of the Zushitang.
He has a distinguished status and a strong background, and the clan standing behind him once showed great favor to the ancestor of Duya.
This time, an unofficial quota was reserved for Wang Yuan.
Originally, there would be no accident at all.
But Su Yi's appearance introduced some unpredictable variables to this arrangement.
Therefore, Ancestor Duya instructed Yun Husheng to persuade Su Yi to give in and make way for Wang Yuan.
But the ancestors of Duya didn't expect that Su Yi wouldn't eat oil or salt, nor would he eat anything soft or hard.
"To do this is too easy to offend people, and it is too extreme. It is not good for the reputation of our ancestors."
On one side, Yun Husheng smiled and said, "Wang Yuan, don't worry, with my ancestor's methods, I can help you get this spot, and even the headmaster won't say anything."
Ancestor Duya nodded slightly.
As an old man in the sect, he still has to worry about the impact. If he makes too big a fuss, not only will his face be damaged, but he will also easily be slandered by others.
"I'll go see the headmaster later."
Ancestor Du Ya made the decision, "Let's see if he, a free-spirited person with no brains, can stir up trouble!"
Wang Yuan said happily: "Thank you so much, uncle!"
…
Ten days later.
A competition between the true disciples of the Zushitang was held.
After many battles and under the attention of countless eyes, Li Muchen, an inner disciple from Cedar Peak, successfully advanced to the top three.
There is no need to think about it, it is a certainty that Li Muchen will become a true disciple!
For a time, countless inner disciples took the initiative to congratulate Su Yi.
Those who had previously ignored, rejected, and distanced themselves from Su Yi now looked ashamed, saying that they were blind before and did not know that Brother Li was a true hero.
Luo Xiao also came, congratulating Su Yi with a smile on his face.
When Su Yi first entered the sect, he had been close to Su Yi many times. After all, they were neighbors.
But since Su Yi was suppressed by elder Yun Husheng last year, Luo Xiao disappeared and alienated her relationship with Su Yi.
Su Yi occasionally heard that Luo Xiao complained about him when he was in contact with other fellow disciples, saying that he was not enlightened. She was blind when she was close to him before, but now she is ashamed to be associated with him!
Su Yi naturally didn't care about this.
But at this time, when he saw Luo Xiao coming to congratulate him, Su Yi couldn't help but laugh and said, "What would you think if I told you that I couldn't become a true disciple of the Patriarch's Hall?"
Luo Xiao was stunned, "How is this possible! Brother Li, your joke is not funny at all!"
Su Yi said seriously: "Do you think I'm joking?"
Luo Xiao's expression froze and he asked in surprise: "Really?"
Su Yi laughed, turned around and left without saying anything.
He wants to see the headmaster!
Soon, the results of the selection of true disciples in the Patriarch Hall were announced.
Of the three places, Li Muchen was the only one who was not unanimously recognized by everyone to be able to enter the Patriarch Hall!
Wang Yuan, on the other hand, entered unexpectedly.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere suddenly became dull.
Everyone looked at each other.
People with clear minds have roughly guessed that the spot that originally belonged to Li Muchen has been replaced by someone else!
And since the elders in the Ancestral Hall have acquiesced to this result, it is enough to prove that the whole sect values Wang Yuan more than Li Muchen!
No, in other words, they value Wang Yuan's background and identity, but have nothing to do with his strength.
Because everyone can see clearly that Wang Yuan is no match for Li Muchen in the assessment of the true disciples of the Ancestral Master Hall!
For a time, I don’t know how many people felt touched by this.
Gloating about misfortune is a given.
There is compassion and compassion.
Feeling sad and angry.
A person with no background, no backing, and no understanding of what it means to be human and worldly, still wants to rise by relying on his own strength?
wishful thinking!
After learning this result, Luo Xiao was dumbfounded. He wanted to slap himself in the face. How could he be so blind that he thought that guy could rise with his own strength?
