"You forced me to do this."
I was a little annoyed. Although my Black Tiered Pagoda's defense wouldn't be fatal, they didn't know what was good for them and kept provoking me like this. I couldn't tolerate it.
"Golden Snake Wild Dance, Total Annihilation." I gripped my Golden Snake Sword tightly and spun at high speed. Rays of sword light poured out.
This was a move that I had recently comprehended. The combination of two different powers created a new spark.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." Suddenly, the sound of something breaking through the air spread.
The little monk from Shaolin stood at the front and a layer of yellow barrier appeared around him.
The other three geniuses also exerted their strength and strengthened the barrier. In the blink of an eye, the barrier was like an impregnable wall.
Even so, when the rays of sword light hit it, it still showed signs of crumbling.
The next moment, there was a loud bang and the barrier broke into pieces, followed by a strong shockwave.
Everyone fixed their eyes on him and saw that the four geniuses of the martial arts world had all suffered varying degrees of injuries, and all of them were in a sorry state. On the other hand, the young man still looked calm and collected.
"Lost."
They sighed. These people were strong contenders for this year's championship, but they lost to a rising star. Who would have thought that this would be the result?
The competition was supposed to be for the geniuses to show off, but it became a show for that kid. Only the people involved could understand this kind of grievance and sadness.
This silent atmosphere lasted for a minute or two. Seeing that they were all silent, I couldn't help but speak.
"Does this count as passing the promotion test?"
Although I didn't mean to mock Master Qingyun, at this critical moment, no matter what I said, it was easy to associate it with what he said before.
Feeling the fervent gazes from all around, Master Qingyun's face turned red and he subconsciously nodded. "Of course it counts …"
"So, the True Martial Hall has successfully promoted?!" I revealed a smile.
"That's right. Congratulations. For the True Martial Hall and the entire Jianghu, you have obtained the highest honor!
After the promotion competition, they'll hold a special ceremony for you. "
Grandmaster Qingyun praised me. Actually, he didn't have any evil intentions. It was just that I had refused his invitation, so he wanted me to suffer a bit. However, even though Grandmaster Qingyun had calculated everything, he didn't expect that I would have an endless number of trump cards. Even the geniuses of the martial arts world didn't have much power to resist.
Hearing Master Qingyun's sincere praise, Grandmaster Chen and Pavilion Leader Sui couldn't help but feel happy. Along the way, they had witnessed Master Qingyun's growth with their own eyes.
"Eh? Great Master Qing Yun, according to the rules, does he have the right to participate in the selection battle for the position of Alliance Master?" Suddenly, a melodious female voice rang out. It was Emei Faction's Li Meiling.
This suggestion stunned everyone. Indeed, according to this year's rules, the top three of the promotion competition had the right to participate in the selection battle for the position of Alliance Master. He had defeated six people by himself, so he definitely had the ability to do so.
The master of the martial arts world was the throne that all the leaders of the eight great sects, including Five Poison Cult, dreamed of. Over the years, they had been discussing who should be the master of the martial arts world, but they could not come up with a good plan. Recently, due to the rise of the people of the evil path, the martial arts sects wanted to choose a master of the martial arts world who was responsible, capable, and cared for the people of the world.
Although some of the big shots of the martial arts world didn't care about fame and fortune, this matter was related to the position of the sect, so they had to fight for it. Actually, after the martial arts disciples had been promoted, it would be time for the real show. However, whether it would be a vote or whether it would be based on strength, even now, there was no conclusion.
Even Grandmaster Qingyun didn't have the right to make a decision. Normally, the few big shots didn't gather together often, so they wanted to use this opportunity to clarify this matter.
They didn't expect that Li Meiling would raise such a sharp question, which really hit the nail on the head.
When they heard this, the leaders of the other sects looked a little unhappy. In contrast, the nun of the Emei Sect couldn't help but nod and cast an approving look at Li Meiling.
It was not because of anything else. Since ancient times, Hua Xia had a patriarchal mentality, and there was no exception in the martial arts sects. With her unfathomable strength, the nun of the Emei Sect could be regarded as a mainstay among the big shots, but she had no hope of competing for the position of Alliance Master.
Because of this, it was better to take the initiative to bring it up. If this little guy was elected, it would be a good thing. Although in terms of qualifications, he couldn't be compared with the big shots of the martial arts world, his not to be ignored potential and amazing talent were enough to make these big shots feel ashamed.
"Little girl, are you kidding me? In terms of seniority, who is he?" the leader of the Huashan Sect said with a little displeasure.
"Uncle Yue, don't forget that he's not even twenty years old this year. To put it bluntly, what were you doing when you were twenty years old?
I believe that under his leadership, there is hope for the martial arts world to return to glory! "Li Meiling's beautiful eyes rippled with a strange light as she said confidently.
"I agree!"
The nun of the Emei Sect was the first to express her opinion. These three simple words not only supported Li Meiling, but also showed that she highly approved of me.
"I don't agree!" the leader of the Yue Sect said without hesitation.
"I don't agree either."
The leader of the Kunlun Sect agreed. He had a good relationship with the leader of the Yue Sect, and this matter involved his personal interests. Previously, the preliminary decision was to change the position of the Alliance Master every three years, but they couldn't reach an agreement.
"That's easy. You two fight with him and see if you can deprive him of his position. Xiao Zhuang, what do you think?" Li Meiling's expression was very playful. She also knew that she couldn't make the decision for me.
"No problem." I shrugged my shoulders.
