"Oh, why are you so confident?" Facing Chen Haonan's ridicule, I didn't get angry. I just narrowed my eyes and asked.
Although I couldn't see through this guy, I absolutely couldn't admit defeat in this situation. Otherwise, I would miss the opportunity to obtain the Golden Snake Sword.
Chen Haonan was stunned for a moment, then a cold light flashed in his eyes. He curled his lips and said, "Boy, I am one of the top three disciples in the Discipline Hall. Shouldn't I be confident?"
I couldn't help but admit that Chen Haonan's identity far surpassed the disciples of the six great dojos. His own opportunities were good. He came to the True Martial Hall from a young age. Relying on his outstanding aptitude and perception, he was already a well-known figure in the Discipline Hall at a young age. It must be known that the Discipline Hall's martial arts heritage was second only to the unfathomable Yanwu Hall. It was no wonder that Chen Haonan's ambition was higher than the heavens.
"Oh, how about this. If I win, tell your master not to meddle in other people's business. If I lose, then I'll let him do whatever he wants." I said unhurriedly, my tone revealing my determination.
"Alright, come, come. I must teach you a lesson today!"
Chen Haonan suddenly became a lot more excited. He was afraid that I wouldn't dare to face him head-on. He didn't expect me to be so stubborn.
"Wait a moment." Just as Chen Haonan was about to jump onto the stage, Hall Master Situ suddenly spoke.
"What's wrong, master?" Chen Haonan was a little surprised.
"Boy, don't overstep your bounds. As long as this old man is here, he can forget about taking the Golden Snake Sword!" Hall Master Situ said indifferently, showing his determination.
Hall Leader Situ had heard of my legendary achievements in the past. From his judgement, there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that he was trying to goad me into joining him. If he didn't think too deeply about it, he might have thought that I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and that my head was filled with water. In reality, that wasn't the case. In just a few short months, I had crawled my way from a small city in the Southern Cloud to the capital city where I overcame five trials and killed six generals. I had shone brilliantly and became the pride of the Southern Cloud people. Behind this incomparably brilliant achievement, there must be some unknown opportunities and hard work.
Therefore, Hall Master Situ didn't think that I was stupid. On the contrary, he thought that I was very smart. On the contrary, Chen Haonan had carelessly fallen into a trap. Perhaps he would fail miserably. After all, in a duel between experts, if there was even a little bit of carelessness, it was possible that the hunted and the hunter would be swapped.
In all fairness, Hall Master Situ wasn't optimistic about Chen Haonan. Don't be fooled by his current arrogance. The more he acted like this, the more likely he would underestimate his opponent. Moreover, Hall Master Situ could feel a trace of dangerous aura from me. In addition, he had also heard that Master Wang of Gyeongbu Hall had extended an olive branch to him, only to be rejected. This was enough to explain a lot of problems.
Chen Haonan was slightly embarrassed and said with dissatisfaction, "Master, you don't believe me?
It's so tiring to argue with them. I promise you, if I lose to this boy, you don't even need to say anything. I will immediately leave the True Martial Hall! "
"That's enough. You shut up." Hall Master Situ berated. He didn't dare to take this risk.
Chen Haonan really couldn't understand why his master, who had always acted decisively, had suddenly become so wishy-washy. Of course, with Hall Master Situ's attitude, Chen Haonan didn't dare to continue disobeying him. However, in his eyes, I was definitely a defeated opponent. Perhaps his master was worried about Lord Zhan Long and Grandmaster Chen's reputation, so he didn't want to fight me.
Then, Hall Master Situ muttered to himself, "Brother Ye, I still have to give you face. I will do as you say and forge a divine weapon for him. If he has any refining requirements, feel free to state them. Our True Martial Hall will also provide a portion of the materials!"
Ye Duzui frowned and glanced at me. It was obvious that he was waiting for me to express my stance. Originally, he had been ordered to plunder the Golden Snake Sword and the Hellfire Mirror. Afterwards, he had completed his task. However, the problem that had arisen now was truly a headache.
"Hehe, it seems that what I said before wasn't clear enough. Let me say it again. Today, no one can stop me from retrieving the Golden Snake Sword, not even Hall Master Situ."
I coldly smiled. The importance of the Golden Snake Sword to me was far beyond what they could imagine. Among these people, perhaps only Grandmaster Chen understood me the best. After all, he knew about the entanglement between me and the Blood Demon. Moreover, I had previously displayed the True Martial Seven Absolutes. Combined with the divine weapon, that kind of earth-shattering destructive power was witnessed by Grandmaster Chen. In other words, as long as I could retrieve the Golden Snake Sword, I would have a higher chance of winning against the Blood Demon. The entire martial world would then be able to avoid a bloodbath.
The stakes in this matter couldn't be explained in just a few words. Moreover, I was suffering in silence. Regarding the Blood Demon, perhaps a small portion of the upper echelons of the Country of Hua Xia had already found some clues. Previously, there had been a series of disturbances, so it was unrealistic to hide it from the public. However, in consideration of social stability, it couldn't be made public.
Hearing this, the muscles on Hall Master Situ's face twitched. He had already given me a way out of this embarrassing situation and was waiting for me to take advantage of it. However, my attitude was so resolute that I didn't give him any face.
"Haha! Brat, are you provoking this old man?" Hall Master Situ said with a fake smile.
"If you think so, then so be it. In any case, I have already said what I have to say. Just like what Lord Zhan Long said, the Golden Snake Sword was found by him. You have no right to interfere. If you continue to be stubborn, then we'll see who's better in the arena." I shrugged and said indifferently.
"Oh? You mean, you want Brother Ye to fight with this old man?
Hmph! Just now, you said that Ah Nan was overstepping his bounds and meddling in other people's affairs. You're actually treating Brother Ye as your little brother? "Hall Master Situ said mockingly.
"No, no, no. What I mean is — — the two of us fight." I moved my fingers and gestured.
Because of this, the atmosphere in the surroundings instantly became strange. The few blacksmiths couldn't help but look at each other.
