In Lin Fan’s room, the Tai Sovereign Sword was placed next to Lin Fan. With a slash, Lin Fan’s body trembled and turn lifeless.
Ten seconds later, Lin Fan opened his eyes. The sky had already lit up.
“It’s such a pity that I failed.” Lin Fan scratched his head. He looked at the recordings in his notebook with satisfaction. It might not be easy, but luckily, I have infinite tries. There’s still a huge improvement seeing the results of my experiments.
The traits of the Golden Body Tempering Secret when it reaches the Mystic level should be great.
Undying body and expansion of muscles are not enough for me now. I must level it up and unlock more traits.
“Today’s a good day. I’ll go and submit the mission that I have completed so I will be eligible for the test. After I become an inner disciple, I’ll have more freedom,” Lin Fan mumbled. He fell from the sky and smashed his target to death the previous time. I did not even get to bring out my skills!
The Magnificent Flame Sect is so troublesome! You have to complete a mission to be eligible for the test, and you will only be a third-class inner disciple if you manage to pass the test.
“There are so many people suppressing me, but I still offended that Jun Wutian from Heaven’s Retribution Peak when I’m powerless!” Lin Fan laughed. This is dope! I’m the best in the world. There’s nobody who is more powerful than me!
Luckily, things have been developing in a good way instead of getting worse.
After making sure that there were no bloodstains on the floor, Lin Fan took his leave.
The three sovereign swords were great weapons. Lin Fan might not have found out the actual uses for the swords yet, but they were perfect for suicide since they didn’t make one bleed when being killed, unlike in the past where the entire ground was covered with blood when he committed suicide.
Hall of the Inner Sect:
“Here to submit the completed mission.” Lin Fan took out the badge that belonged to the evil cultivator, Jiang Gu. This was the proof that Lin Fan had completed the mission. Oh, I did not even get to show off my ability and he’s dead! That’s so sad to die without knowing what’s going on.
A disciple in a white robe came to receive Lin Fan. He took a look at him and immediately recognized that Lin Fan was the lucky disciple that Elder Tian Xu took in. However, he also knew that Lin Fan had offended Jun Wutian, so many disciples were not willing to get close to him.
Jun Wutian might not have taken action yet, but that did not mean that he would stay silent forever.
If they were too close, they might get into trouble.
“Come over tomorrow for the test.” After getting the procedures done, the disciple wasn’t willing to say more to Lin Fan. He left as if he had met a Wen Shen. (TL note 1)
Lin Fan chuckled. So what if you’re unfriendly now? I will not pay attention to you when you’re being friendly to me in the future.
After Lin Fan left, Liu Yue came to the disciple that received Lin Fan.
“Junior Brother…” she said, sounding soft and sweet, making the disciple shudder. When he saw Liu Yue, he stammered. “Senior Sister Liu….”
Liu Yue was one of the most active and beautiful disciples in the inner sect.
It was unknown how many inner disciples had fallen head-over-heels for her.
And he was just a disciple who was in charge of arranging the test for soon-to-be inner disciples. He could only look at Liu Yue from afar; it was impossible for him to play with her.
But this Senior Sister Liu had just spoken to him! How excited and happy that made him!
“Junior Brother, can Senior Sister ask you a question? Who will he be put against tomorrow?” Liu Yue asked softly. She had uncountable ways to toy with her admirers and control them.
“Hold on, Senior Sister, let me take a look,” the disciple said, looking through the records. “A third-class inner disciple, Wang Yan.”
Liu Yue frowned and took the book. Wang Yan, Earth Star Border Stage One. His cultivation is too low. She then put her eyes on a name. A smile crept up the corner of Liu Yue’s mouth.
“Junior Brother, Senior Sister thinks that this disciple is the most suitable choice. What do you think?” Liu Yue said, pointing to a name.
“Senior Sister, this…” The disciple in white was shocked to see the name. Worries were written all across his face.
But before he could finish his words, he saw Liu Yue’s puppy-dog eyes, which made him give in immediately. “I get it, Senior Sister.” He nodded.
Qin Shan, Earth Star Border Stage Four, and has mental problems.
…
“Junior Sister Liu, how did it go?” Feng Shaoyun came to Liu Yue and asked.
“I have settled it.” Liu Yue smiled cunningly.
“Who did you pick for him?” Feng Shaoyun asked. The reason that Liu Yue went instead of him was that Liu Yue would surely succeed while he was incapable of doing so.
“Qin Shan.”
Hearing the name, Feng Shaoyun couldn’t help but take in a deep breath. “Qin Shan, that madman? That guy went crazy after his elder brother died during the war. He’s okay at times and bad at times. Would anything go wrong if he’s the one going up against Lin Fan?”
“How could it be that nothing goes wrong?” Liu Yue said.
The next day, Lu Qiming and the others were already waiting for Lin Fan outside his room. Now, they had changed their way of addressing him. He was their Senior Brother Lin now.
Initially, Lin Fan could not get used to it, but as time passed, Lin Fan felt that it wasn’t bad to be called Senior Brother Lin.
“Senior Brother Lin, today is the test. I’m sure that you’ll make it,” Huang Fugui said.
“Of course,” Lin Fan said. “Who would succeed if even I don’t?”
It’s just a small test, what’s the big deal about it?
If I fail to become an inner disciple with my strength, then nobody in this sect would pass.
To Lu Qiming and the others, Lin Fan would definitely pass the test. It wasn’t difficult to pass the test to become a third-class inner disciple. During the test, the candidate would be put against an inner disciple around the same stage. They were not required to win over the other party; as long as they could keep it up for five minutes, then they would be considered to have succeeded.
Among the others, Zhang Long was the closest to the Earth Star Border Realm. As soon as he managed to break through, he would be eligible to take part in the test.
And he wasn’t far from that day as he was already at the peak of the Body Tempering Realm.
Many disciples had registered for the test, but it did not take long for it to be Lin Fan’s turn.
“First-class outer disciple Lin Fan, please report for the test!” a disciple from the Hall of the Inner Sect shouted.
The crowd looked over to Lin Fan, who was very popular currently. They all looked at him green with envy – envious that he was chosen to be Elder Tian Xu’s direct disciple.
Somewhere far away, Liu Yue and the others were watching the scene. She had a smirk hanging on her face. She could already see how badly injured Lin Fan would end up being.
“Senior Brother, all the best!” Huang Fugui said.
Lin Fan walked toward the circle of light calmly. Soon, a force came, surrounding him. When he opened his eyes, he was in the ring.
To the spectating disciples, there weren’t any changes to be seen. To them, there was only a layer of light separating them from the ring.
Lin Fan took a look around. This place is strange, I wonder which past master opened this space up.
Boom!
Just then, Lin Fan heard a vibration. When he looked over, he saw a foolish-looking but huge man walking toward him.
Huang Fugui and the rest were discussing where to celebrate Lin Fan’s success.
Suddenly, everyone had their jaws dropped.
“How could it be Qin Shan? How could Qin Shan be going against Senior Brother Lin?” Lu Qiming shrieked.
Qin Shan was not a popular figure in the sect originally, but he became popular due to him becoming an Earth Star Border Stage Four despite being mentally unfit.
This is so unfair!
The disciple that set Lin Fan up against Qin Shan had a shocked expression on his face too. He knew what was going on, but he pretended not to.
“Oh no, something went wrong….”
Other spectating disciples let out screams too.
“This is so unlucky. It’s Qin Shan! Lady Luck must not be on Lin Fan’s side.”
“Qin Shan is an Earth Star Border Stage Four. He’s very powerful!”
“Why is Qin Shan even put to go against these candidates? Do they not want to let them pass?”
“No matter how powerful Senior Brother Lin is, he would never be Qin Shan’s opponent. The results are clear. There’s no need for us to watch this competition.”
Just at this time, everyone present was extremely shocked.
It’s an unfair test!
The difference in power was too huge!
In the ring, Lin Fan watched the icy-looking and muscular guy walk out. He looked strong and powerful.
“It’s the inner sect, of course it wouldn’t be an ordinary test. If it’s too simple, how could I experience how good the inner sect disciples are?
“Such a strong will to fight.
“Interesting. This is interesting.”
