Chapter 654: Chapter 651: You’re Just a Substitute_1
Yang Chen also believed that the Slaughter God Spear wouldn’t cause any more problems, so he eventually put it into his Storage Bag. As for testing the Slaughter God Spear, he already had so ideas in mind, but it wasn’t sothing he needed to do right now.
“Junior Brother Yang Chen…”
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded from outside.
Hearing this, Yang Chen was sowhat surprised. Knowing that it was a female disciple of the Green Lotus Sect, he didn’t stop her and removed the formation before opening the door.
“Junior Brother Yang Chen.” The female disciple’s face turned red as she spoke softly.
Yang Chen nodded, feeling familiar with this female disciple, and asked, “What’s the matter, Senior Sister?”
“It’s like this. The Sect Leader would like to invite you to discuss the upcoming Trial Tower competition. After all, the competition will begin in a few days, and the outside world is already buzzing about it,” said the female disciple.
“I see. Let’s go now,” Yang Chen replied.
“Okay!”
Yang Chen and the female disciple arrived at a courtyard together.
In the courtyard, Li Ruoxiang and so high-level mbers of the Black Dragon Sect were present.
“Sect Leader, Yang Chen is here.” The female disciple smiled and gracefully backed away.
Upon seeing Yang Chen’s arrival, Li Ruoxiang nodded and said, “Young Master Yang Chen has arrived.”
“Yang Chen pays his respects to Sect Leader Li!” Yang Chen bowed. “My respects to the Elders.”
Although so of these Elders were not fond of Yang Chen, his respectful attitude prevented them from making things difficult for him.
Li Ruoxiang gestured to Yang Chen, “Yang Chen, take a look at the three participating disciples chosen by our Green Lotus Sect this ti!”
Yang Chen looked in the direction Li Ruoxiang pointed and saw three young female disciples, all dressed differently with different appearances and similar ages. However, their Martial Arts Cultivations were vastly different.
On the leftmost side was Qingyin, whom Yang Chen was familiar with. She was Li Ruoxiang’s External Incarnation, with a Martial Arts Cultivation reaching the peak of the Origin Martial Realm.
As for the other two, they were much worse, with Martial Arts Cultivations only at the Eighth Level of the Origin Martial Realm, far from the Ninth Level.
However, the Trial Tower has little to do with cultivation, so Yang Chen had nothing to say about it. He amiably said, “Sect Leader Li, I, Yang Chen, have no insights. All three Senior Sisters are excellent.”
“Oh? Are they as excellent as you, Yang Chen?” Li Ruoxiang asked.
Yang Chen coughed and said, “What does Sect Leader Li an? Just say it!”
Li Ruoxiang replied, “Nothing much, I just want to ask if Yang Chen, my friend, is interested in this Trial Tower.”
“Not interested,” Yang Chen replied decisively.
What does the struggle between these sects have to do with ?
“What if I, Li Ruoxiang, invite you to participate?” Li Ruoxiang’s mouth curved up.
“…”
Seeing that Yang Chen seed to be reluctant, Li Ruoxiang slowly said, “Young Master Yang Chen, you should rember that you owe quite a few Spirit Stones to our Green Lotus Sect.”
“This, this is true. If Sect Leader Li commands it, Yang Chen has no reason to refuse.” Yang Chen was both crying and laughing. Li Ruoxiang really didn’t have any good intentions, so it didn’t take long for the borrowed Spirit Stones to be put to use, making him repay them.
Thinking about this, Yang Chen let out a sigh and looked at the three female disciples, saying, “But isn’t there a minimum limit of three quotas… Besides, I’m not from the Green Lotus Sect, so how can I represent the Green Lotus Sect in the competition?”
“There is no rule in Huangsha City that prohibits bringing soone from another sect!” Li Ruoxiang slowly said. “As for the three quotas, it’s easy to change one at any ti.”Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh and cry. However, the two female disciples other than Qingyin had already known Li Ruoxiang’s thoughts and were prepared, so they didn’t have any overly angry thoughts and intentions.
It was an elder from the Qinglian Sect who said, “Sect Leader, letting Yang Chen participate is a bit reckless, isn’t it?”
“Yes, there are many factors that determine whether one will achieve good results in the Trial Tower. Although Yang Chen defeated Luo Yunhu, he relied more on the power of the Spirit Talismans. I’m afraid that the results he gets in the Trial Tower may not be as good as those of our own sect’s disciples.” Another elder echoed imdiately.
They didn’t dislike Yang Chen; they were genuinely concerned about the performance of their own sect.
Li Ruoxiang blinked her eyes, “I don’t think it’s reckless. Yang Chen should have been to the Trial Tower in Beishan Main City many tis, right?”
The female elder who spoke first looked at Yang Chen, “Young Master Yang Chen, how many floors have you passed in the Spirit Martial Realm at the Trial Tower in Beishan Main City?”
These elders were very curious, and they needed to ask him clearly before they could rest assured to let Yang Chen participate.
Yang Chen hesitated for a mont and then said, “It’s not easy to say!”
“What’s so difficult to say, Yang Chen, my friend? If you have confidence in yourself, what’s so hard to say?”
“That’s right, we won’t laugh at you.”
“…”
Hearing the word “laugh,” Yang Chen knew that these elders had misunderstood his aning.
So, after scratching his head, he no longer tried to hide it: “My best achievent in the Trial Tower when I was in the Spirit Martial Realm was…twenty floors!”
“Twenty floors!”
“What!”
These elders’ eyes widened in surprise, “Yang Chen, are you serious?”
“Yang Chen, do you know what twenty floors an? It represents an achievent that maybe no one among all the main city forces in the counties could have achieved for so many years. Are you joking with us?”
One after another, they stared angrily at him, not even addressing him as their friend or young master, calling him directly by his na, obviously thinking that Yang Chen was joking with them and not believing him at all.
Yang Chen said helplessly, “I didn’t want to say it, but you insisted on asking. And now that I’ve told you, you don’t believe .”
“…”
These elders were sowhat at a loss, but still unconvinced, “Young Master Yang Chen, we want you to be more realistic, not to be unreasonable!”
“Exactly!”
Yang Chen was depressed and didn’t bother to explain any further: “Seniors, if you really don’t believe , you can go to Beishan Main City to verify it at any ti. If you find out that I, Yang Chen, have said sothing wrong… you can co to and settle the score.”
Hearing Yang Chen say this, the female elders of the Qinglian Sect were speechless, all closing their mouths like they had been gagged. They stared at each other, not knowing what to say.
Since Yang Chen had said so much, what else could they say?
Li Ruoxiang spoke calmly, “Since Yang Chen is so confident, do the elders have anything else to say?”
These elders had nothing more to say. Yang Chen hesitated for a mont and then said, “Sect Leader Li, do you really trust ? What if I’m just boasting?”
“Trust you? Not quite. You are just a backup. If our Qinglian Sect’s disciples perform poorly, we’ll let you play. In other words, maybe you won’t even get a chance to play.” Li Ruoxiang and Yang Chen didn’t bother to be polite to each other.
