157: Foolish undercover agent
"Strange, could this kid have discovered me?"
In the distant Void Realm, watching Lin Xiao look toward his direction, the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect was stunned.
Since Li Qingyu was the Azure Emperor's Successor, his appearance would inevitably attract the covetous eyes of those with ulterior motives.
Therefore, the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect simply came up with a method and found a place to hide.
He intended to wait for the right moment, and then ruthlessly root out all the moles hiding within the Azure Emperor Sect.
The Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect had thought his concealment was flawless, but he never expected that he would be discovered by Lin Xiao after hiding for less than a moment.
"Sigh, what a freak. I hope he doesn't ruin my plan," the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect muttered.
As he spoke, he continued to monitor Li Qingyu.
"Brother Lin Xiao, what are you looking at?"
Seeing Lin Xiao staring motionlessly into the distance, Li Qingyu asked with some curiosity.
"Nothing, I just thought of something," Lin Xiao said with a smile, withdrawing his gaze.
Then he looked toward the other nineteen arenas and began to watch the show.
Because the lineup for this year's Azure Emperor Sect Disciple selection tournament was the strongest in history, the spectacle was naturally incredibly lively.
It wasn't just the uninitiated Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples present.
As time passed, many people from the Inner Sect also arrived at the trial grounds one after another, watching each match with great interest.
After all, every Disciple on these twenty arenas could potentially become their formidable opponent in the future.
"Hehe, this year's Disciple selection tournament is truly interesting. So many Ancient Prodigies have appeared."
"Indeed. With the conclusion of today's tournament, I believe the Inner Sect will be bustling before long."
"Haha, the reshuffling of the Inner Sect Disciple rankings is truly exciting."
"Yeah, the last time there was a large-scale reshuffling of the Inner Sect Disciples, it seems it was when Senior Brother Yu took his many followers to the Core Disciple area."
"Sigh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Senior Brother Yu, who was once a prominent figure in the Inner Sect, is now in the top few of the Core Disciple rankings. And I, who was about the same as him back then, am still stagnating. I really am trash."
"Hehe, Senior Brother, don't belittle yourself. You are already very strong now. As for Senior Brother Yu, he just has a stronger backing than you. If you had also taken a Great Saint Realm Expert as your master, perhaps your achievements wouldn't be any worse than Senior Brother Yu's."
"Taking a master, how could I not want that? But unfortunately, no Senior is willing to take me on."
Countless Disciples discussed among themselves, talking about all sorts of miscellaneous matters.
Sect gossip, Disciple romances, and all sorts of other trivial things could be heard here today.
"Hehe, it seems the daily life of this Azure Emperor Sect is quite interesting."
Hearing these things they were talking about, even the usually mature and steady Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
While laughing, Lin Xiao also kept an eye on certain Azure Emperor Sect Disciples near Li Qingyu who were ready to make a move.
"Azure Emperor's Successor, go to hell!!!"
Just then, an undercover agent finally couldn't help but jump out and roar loudly at Li Qingyu.
Then, he drew a sharp dagger and frantically stabbed toward Li Qingyu.
However, although his voice was loud, he himself was a bit trashy.
Before he could even touch Li Qingyu, he was completely disintegrated by the Great Disintegration Art cast by Lin Xiao.
Only a little dust was left floating in the air, which then dissipated between heaven and earth, his soul returning to the Reincarnation.
"Too weak. Which faction arranged this undercover agent? He's truly stupid. Does he really think his output relies entirely on roaring?" Lin Xiao said with a laugh.
For a moment, he worried for those small Sects that had planted undercover agents in the Azure Emperor Sect.
"If those Sects are full of such characters, I believe it won't take many years before those Sects disband," Lin Xiao laughed inwardly.
However, what Lin Xiao didn't know was that he wasn't the only one mentally berating that undercover agent at this moment.
Due to the death of that undercover agent just now, almost all the undercover agents in the entire trial ground became angry.
However, the target of their anger wasn't Lin Xiao, but the unlucky fellow who had just been killed by Lin Xiao.
"Damn it, is this guy an idiot? To attempt an assassination like this, I really don't know which brain-dead person taught him."
"My god, this guy deserved to die. He missed such a good Opportunity and even raised Lin Xiao's vigilance."
"Troublesome, truly troublesome. It seems the assassination won't succeed today; we'll have to change the time."
"Sigh, my Western Heaven Supreme Buddha, why would you let me encounter such a stupid teammate?"
Countless undercover agents complained and raged inwardly, feeling like they wanted to grind that bastard who had just died into dust.
However, compared to these people, the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect, who was hiding in the Void Realm, appeared much calmer.
He did not pay too much attention to the death of that undercover agent, only looking at Lin Xiao with great interest.
"This little guy is not simple. Great Disintegration Art, Great Defensive Art—every single one is an incredibly powerful Great Dao Treasure Arts."
"These are not things that Junior Martial Uncle Cangtian could have taught him. It seems this child must have a great Opportunity on him."
"But it's a pity. If he weren't the Lin Clan Divine Son, I might have been able to let him sit in this position of Sect Master," the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect sighed, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Lin Xiao.
"Sure enough, good Disciples always belong to others," the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect smiled bitterly.
Then he returned his gaze to Li Qingyu.
"Successor of the Azure Emperor, I hope you won't disappoint me. The Luck of my Azure Emperor Sect is all resting on you," the Sect Master of the Azure Emperor Sect said thoughtfully.
Back to Lin Xiao's side.
Because Lin Xiao had killed that undercover agent in one move, his arena immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
"Hiss, what just happened? Such powerful Law energy in the air."
"I just seemed to see someone trying to assassinate Young Master Lin Xiao's friend, and then that person was directly killed in one move by Young Master Lin Xiao."
"My god, assassinating Young Master Lin Xiao's friend? That person deserved to die. He really didn't take the Azure Emperor Sect's rules seriously at all."
"This is the power of the Law of Disintegration. It seems Lin Xiao is not as simple as he appeared when fighting Huang Dali."
"Simply courting death. Killing someone in front of Young Master Lin Xiao? Does he think Young Master Lin Xiao is air?"
"Yeah, if I guess correctly, Young Master Lin Xiao's first place in this third round is secure."
Countless Azure Emperor Sect Disciples discussed among themselves. While praising Lin Xiao, they didn't forget to repeatedly mock the undercover agent who had just died.
