The eyes of the second elder and the third elder passed over the nine people one by one. Any disciple who came into contact with their eyes would have their heart beat faster and become very nervous.
"Gu Dapeng!" The second elder stared at a young man and said.
The young man named Gu Dapeng suddenly raised his head when he heard this, with a look of disbelief on his face: "Me?"
"You performed well in the first level, and you also understood half of the true meaning of martial arts. Are you willing to be my personal disciple?"
Gu Dapeng's face was full of ecstasy, and he nodded quickly: "I do, I do!"
After saying that, he quickly walked behind the second elder.
"Damn it, Gu Dapeng is really lucky to be accepted by the Second Elder as his direct disciple!" Everyone looked at Gu Dapeng with envy.
The remaining eight people were even more worried.
"I'll just choose Gu Dapeng, leave the rest to Third Junior Sister." At this time, the second elder withdrew his gaze and said to the third elder.
Pick just one person?
The inner disciples who came to watch were all stunned, and many of them looked at Xiao Ye unconsciously.
They remembered that after the first level, the first elder and the second elder had a fight over Xiao Ye. Why did the first elder and the second elder give up on Xiao Ye now?
"It's probably because Xiao Ye's performance in the second level was too poor."
"Now it depends on whether the Third Elder will choose Xiao Ye." Everyone whispered.
Xiao Ye frowned slightly, his heart full of doubts.
It stands to reason that even if he lags behind in the second level, he will not be given up by the first elder and the second elder. As for the third elder, he believes that the other party will never choose him.
Sure enough, the third elder didn't even look at Xiao Ye and directly chose Zhang Huwei.
"Although you performed poorly in the first level, your qualifications are pretty good. From now on, you will be my direct disciple." The third elder said.
Zhang Huwei was very worried and overjoyed when he heard this.
"Thank you Master!"
Zhang Huwei bowed respectfully and saluted, then walked behind the third elder, his face full of pride.
The atmosphere in the field seemed to have solidified. This was the last chance to become a personal disciple.
The third elder's eyes stayed on Xiao Ye for a moment, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said: "I just choose Zhang Huwei, the rest are not qualified to be my direct disciples."
Whoosh!
After hearing the words of the third elder, the inner disciple who was not selected turned pale and felt very unwilling.
"Great Elder, I don't accept it! My performance in the first two levels was obviously better than Gu Dapeng, why did you choose him but not me!" A disciple said loudly.
"Yes, I'm not convinced either!" Immediately afterwards, another disciple stood up to express his dissatisfaction.
"Hmph!" A glint flashed in the eyes of Third Elder Feng, his black robe moved automatically without wind, and a terrifying aura came out of his body, like a mountain falling down, sending the two disciples flying backwards.
"You are quite brave, you even dare to question us?" the third elder said coldly with a frosty face.
The two disciples fell to the ground in embarrassment, frightened in their hearts and did not dare to speak any more.
The black-robed elders with innate extreme cultivation are so terrifying that they can be driven away with just a look.
"Okay, Third Junior Sister." The elder came out and said calmly, "Since you have doubts, I will explain it to you."
"To become a direct disciple of the three of us, unless you perform particularly well in the first two levels, you need to understand the true meaning of martial arts to more than 10%."
"The reason why you were eliminated is because you did not meet these two conditions." The great elder said calmly.
"So that's it!" The inner disciples who were watching suddenly realized in their hearts.
I won’t mention Leng Feng.
Although Gu Dapeng and Zhang Huwei performed worse than others in the first two levels, they had understood the true meaning of martial arts by more than 10%, so they were selected.
After hearing the great elder's words, the disciple who was initially unhappy lowered his head in silence and gradually accepted this fact.
However, more people looked at Xiao Ye with sympathy.
It's so ironic that a talented person who works alongside Leng Feng in the inner sect has lost the election like this.
"Alas, from now on, he and Leng Feng will be from two different worlds." Someone lamented.
Xiao Ye clenched his fists and looked at the three black-robed elders, with faint flames lingering in his dark pupils.
"Do you think my true meaning of martial arts has only reached 10%? It seems that sometimes being too low-key may not be a good thing." Xiao Ye sneered in his heart. This method of eliminating him without confirming it is a complete and utter deception.
contempt.
He believed that as long as he revealed 40% of the true meaning of Yan, the First Elder and the Second Elder would definitely rush to accept him as his direct disciple.
But the other party gave up on him because of contempt, so he didn't bother to be their direct disciple anymore.
If others look down upon me, I will resist them!
"Elder, I would like to ask, how do you know that I have only understood 10% of the true meaning of martial arts? Have you seen it?" Xiao Ye took a step forward and asked in a cold voice.
After hearing Xiao Ye's words, the three black-robed elders frowned slightly.
Naturally, they didn't see it, but inferred it from Xiao Ye's performance in the second level.
"You come to this conclusion without seeing it. Are the high-ranking black-robed elders so arbitrary?" Xiao Ye shouted sharply, his voice shaking the sky.
hiss!
Many inner disciples couldn't help but take a breath and look horrified. Xiao Ye was too bold and dared to question him face to face. This was too disrespectful to the black-robed elder.
"Bold!" The third elder's face was as cold as frost, and the cold light surged in his phoenix eyes. The extremely terrifying power rose into the sky, forming a powerful pressure and rushing in all directions.
Although she couldn't stand Xiao Ye before, she wouldn't take action because of it, but now that Xiao Ye is being disrespectful, she will naturally not be lenient.
boom!
The inner disciples present were all shocked. This powerful pressure was like a mountain pressing on them, making it extremely difficult to breathe.
Xiao Ye was the first to bear the brunt, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body was slowly bent down by the powerful pressure, and the soles of his feet sank into the ground.
Xiao Ye used the Four Cauldrons of Heavenly Power to resist the powerful pressure.
He raised his head to look at the third elder, with a hint of frivolity in his eyes. His gradually straightening body, like his wild laughter, was full of unyielding.
"Haha, I asked you, but you didn't answer and instead used force against me. Are you angry because of embarrassment?" Xiao Ye's voice exploded in the void, making the third elder suddenly change his expression.
boom!
An even more terrifying pressure descended on Xiao Ye like a stormy wave.
Xiao Ye tried his best to use the Four Cauldrons of Heavenly Power, but was still blown away.
"Dare to be disrespectful to the black-robed elder, you must be severely punished!" The third elder Feng's eyes flashed with cold light, he took a step forward, quickly caught up with Xiao Ye, and struck out with a cold palm.
With her cultivation level, if this palm hits, Xiao Ye will be seriously injured even if he doesn't die.
At this moment, a black figure appeared in the field as if teleporting and stood in front of the third elder.
The visitor also struck out with a palm, and collided with the three elders. An extremely terrifying energy wave suddenly erupted, impacting in all directions.
Rumble!
A vacuum zone was formed within a hundred steps of the two. The ground sunk several meters downward, and countless cracks snaked open, which was shocking.
Dozens of inner sect disciples were unfortunately swept away by the aftermath of the battle and flew out, hitting the ground hard.
When the smoke fell to the ground, what appeared in front of the third elder was an old man with gray hair, high energy, and deep eyes. He was also wearing a black robe.
Black-robed elder!
The moment they saw the old man, everyone understood that it was the Fourth Elder who had arrived.
"Fourth Junior Brother, why are you stopping me? This kid made rude remarks and must be severely punished!" The third elder took a few steps back and said with a displeased face.
"Because I plan to accept him as my direct disciple, even if he scolds the deputy sect master, no one can hurt him!" The fourth elder put his hands behind his back and spoke domineeringly, causing the crowd to fall silent instantly.
The Fourth Elder wants to accept Xiao Ye as his direct disciple?
Xiao Ye got up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a stunned expression.
He had never met the Fourth Elder. The only time he had met was in the Hall of Judgment, when the Fourth Elder suggested that he be exiled to the Death Swamp.
Now, why does the Fourth Elder want to accept him as his direct disciple?
"Fourth Junior Brother, you have always been a loner, and you only have one direct disciple under your sect. I thought you had a very high vision, but it turns out that you have a very poor vision. Even the garbage we don't want, you want to take it under your sect." The third elder said first.
Stunned, he then mocked.
Whoosh!
The fourth elder's deep eyes were blazing, and terrifying zhenqi fluctuations shot up into the sky.
"You are so hypocritical. You want to accept a direct disciple and then create a three-level test."
"When I recruit my direct disciples, I never look at any bullshit test results. If I don't take a fancy to him, even if he has the appearance of an emperor, I won't look down on him!"
"But if I take a fancy to him, even if he is a waste, I will accept him as my personal disciple! Do you have any objections?"
After hearing what the fourth elder said, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. These words were too domineering.
Even the first elder's expression changed slightly, and the fourth elder even scolded him.
Xiao Ye's heart trembled. Ever since he left Xiaojiacun, he had deeply realized the importance of strength.
If you have strength and qualifications, everyone will respect you and protect you; if you have no strength and qualifications, everyone will humiliate you and bully you.
This is the first time he has met someone who defends him so much, regardless of his qualifications or strength.
"If others treat me sincerely, I will treat them sincerely." Xiao Ye thought to himself.
At this moment, he felt respect for the four elders.
"Boy, I think you are very good. Are you willing to be my personal disciple?" The fourth elder looked at Xiao Ye with his deep eyes and asked.
"I do!" Xiao Ye took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
"Then come with me." A smile appeared on the fourth elder's face, preparing to leave with Xiao Ye.
"Master, wait a minute!" At this time, an unpredictable smile appeared on Xiao Ye's face.
"This disciple plans to pass the third level." Xiao Ye said.
The first elder and the second elder gave up on him one after another because of contempt. He was not willing to leave like this. He wanted to give them a loud slap in the face!
