Gain trust and accept challenges

At this moment, Xue Hanzhou immediately defended Shen Fan: "Revered Master, this guy is truly bold due to his exceptional skill.

After barely surviving, he knew his Divine Soul was damaged and he didn't have long to live, so he actually borrowed heavily from seven or eight societies in our Tianxuan Sect.

He borrowed a staggering 800,000 contribution points and bought Soul Water at Wanbao Pavilion, which saved his life.

However, he's basically indebted to our Tianxuan Sect for life; for the rest of his days, he'll have to work for free for our Tianxuan Sect to repay so many contribution points."

Hearing this, Xue Qiutian immediately chuckled: "What a talent!"

This experience immediately earned Xue Qiutian's trust, and with Xue Hanzhou explaining beside him, Xue Qiutian no longer had any suspicion towards Shen Fan.

Just then, Grand Elder Liu Qingfeng aggressively spoke up: "Sect Master, just because he joined Zhan Yue Peak doesn't mean he can represent the Tianxuan Sect in the competition! He's only at the Qi Refinement Stage Middle Stage; they could send out a dog to kill this guy!"

Hearing this, Xue Qiutian's expression immediately turned troubled.

Since it concerned Zhan Yue Peak, it was difficult for him to handle!

Seeing this, Shen Fan immediately said: "Sect Master, the Disciple is only participating in the Qi Refinement Stage level competition. For Qi Refinement Stage level competitions, under the guidance of my Revered Master Wind Dao Ling, I am quite confident. If the Grand Elder is worried about me disgracing the Sect, the Grand Elder can absolutely find someone to test me!"

"How to test?"

"I can freely accept any challenge at the Qi Refinement Stage level. If I lose, I can choose not to participate in the challenge and not disgrace the Tianxuan Sect!"

"Is that true?"

Grand Elder Liu Qingfeng's eyes lit up upon hearing this. If he could take away this spot, he could have one more of his own people participate in the competition.

One must know that the rewards for this competition were generous, and having one more person meant gaining more benefits.

Shen Fan nodded solemnly: "It's true! If I lose, I will forfeit this competition and hand over the spot to the Sect without compensation, allowing the Sect Master to select a capable individual to participate!"

"Good! You brat!"

Xue Qiutian praised greatly: "Don't worry, even if you lose, the Sect will still give you some compensation!"

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

After Shen Fan finished speaking, he turned and looked at all the Outer Sect and Inner Sect Disciples, saying proudly.

"Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, Junior Brothers, and Junior Sisters, is there anyone below the Foundation Establishment Stage who wishes to challenge? Feel free to step forward!"

"Oh, right! And let it not be said that Junior Brother intentionally concealed anything, but in the few days since I joined Zhan Yue Peak, I have already advanced to the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Stage Late Phase. Although there's still some gap between me and the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters at Qi Refining Stage Perfection, Junior Brother still wants to give it a try!"

As soon as these words were uttered,

the scene immediately became restless.

Some Disciples, hearing that Shen Fan was only at the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Stage, immediately became eager to move.

But the intelligent ones, even those with the Qi Refining Stage Perfection Realm, merely smiled without speaking, standing still and not intending to make a move.

They weren't foolish; anyone with an eye could tell who was standing beside Shen Fan.

That was the future successor of the Tianxuan Sect, Saint Xue Hanzhou!

And just now, Xue Hanzhou had even confronted Lin Ye for Shen Fan!

Challenging Shen Fan and risking offending the Saint?

That's like a mouse working as a hostess for a cat, earning money without caring about its life!

Especially some Disciples from the Hanfeng Society, they would certainly not make a move.

Other organizations, such as the Hongxing Society supported by Second Elder Mo Yu, the Sanhe Society supported by Fourth Elder Wan Li, and the Sanding Society supported by the deceased Third Elder Jia Chengxin, these people were all very smart and would not get involved in the struggle between the Hanfeng Society and the Heaven and Earth Society.

Looking around,

more than ten people stood up with a rustle.

They were all from the Heaven and Earth Society.

"Senior Brothers, let me handle this!"

Just then, Zhuo Feifan, still seething with anger, shouted loudly to the others.

"I'm going to beat him to death, I'm going to beat him to death alive!"

Just then, Lin Ye walked straight up to these people.

"That kid holds a powerful Magical Artifact that can destroy your Magical Artifacts. Although he's only at the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Stage, if he gets serious, you might have some difficulty!"

"Me? I can't beat him? Senior Brother, I'm the number one on the New Talent List! I'm at the Qi Refining Stage Late Stage Peak, the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Stage! I'm just one step away from entering Qi Refining Stage Perfection!"

Zhuo Feifan seemed to have suffered a huge blow. If even his own people didn't believe him, he might as well find a piece of tofu and smash his head against it.

The other few Disciples at Qi Refining Stage Perfection advised: "Second Senior Brother, why don't we let Junior Brother Feifan do it? Junior Brother Feifan has been bothered by this kid, letting him personally defeat this guy can also resolve the hatred in his heart, otherwise Junior Brother Feifan might even develop a Heart Demon in the future, and his Dao Heart might become unstable!"

"Yes, Second Senior Brother, let me do it!"

Zhuo Feifan pleaded bitterly.

"Alas! So be it!"

Lin Ye said, turning his back to everyone, and took out a Spiritual Artifact longsword, handing it to Zhuo Feifan.

"This is my Red Rain Sword, which I usually use for practicing swordplay. It's a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact. With its help, you can defeat this kid. But I have one condition: find an opportunity to kill this guy!"

Zhuo Feifan's eyes sparkled as he excitedly took the longsword: "Don't worry, Second Senior Brother, I will definitely kill this guy!"

"Go ahead and do it, I'll bear the consequences!" Lin Ye nodded.

Then, Zhuo Feifan leaped up, directly jumping in front of Shen Fan.

"Kid, I'm here to challenge you!"

"It's you?"

Seeing Zhuo Feifan, Shen Fan immediately became interested, the corners of his mouth curving slightly into an evil smile.

Just now, Shen Fan was still thinking about how to eliminate hidden dangers and prevent problems before they arose, but he didn't expect this guy to jump out himself.

Looking at the Spiritual Artifact in his hand, he was clearly prepared, and his anger was raging, likely with murderous intent.

Shen Fan thought to himself: "As long as you dare to make a move, I can counter-kill you!"

What Shen Fan needed was an excuse, an opportunity!

"Good! In that case, let's begin!"

Xue Qiutian said indifferently.

"Shen Fan, if you lose, hand over the competition spot, and the Sect will give you some compensation. If you win, you will participate in the competition as usual, and the Sect will still give you this compensation. After all, if you accept the challenge and lose, you have to hand over the spot, and it wouldn't be right if you gained nothing by winning!"

Shen Fan's eyebrows immediately raised: "Thank you, Sect Master!"

You old fellow, you're quite good!

If you hadn't used the Soul Searching Technique on me and made me want to kill, I'd still be touched thinking about it now!

At this moment, the selection competition was paused.

Everyone's attention was focused on Shen Fan and Zhuo Feifan.

And as the Sect Master personally gave the order, announcing the start of the competition,

Zhuo Feifan took a step forward and immediately thrust a sword through the air.

In mid-air, Sword Qi danced, stirring up gusts of wind.

The sharp Sword Intent pierced towards Shen Fan like a blade.

"This Sword Qi unleashed by a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact, I'm afraid it's not something the Flowing Fire Gauze and the Muscle-Changing Realm Physical Body can withstand head-on!"

Shen Fan thought to himself.
