Chapter 336 Fight For Ding Hao
Ding Hao was a rare genius!
A peerless genius who had never been recorded since the beginning of the sect.
A genius they had neglected before!
“You… are you… a bloodline warrior?” the bald-headed man asked in amazement. But Ding Hao had not yet answered, he then angrily ordered, “Find out who hosted Ding Hao’s admission test. He was so careless and let our sect nearly miss such a peerless genius. d.a.m.n it!”
“Hahaha, Excellent! Ding Hao, you’re such a good talent. The sect will put much effort to cultivate you!”
“I’ve never heard such a short advancing record in our sect. In my opinion, Ding Hao can be directly listed as a core disciple.”
“Ha ha ha, Ding Hao, I’m the peak master of the Sky Sword Peak. Are you willing to be my disciple? I a.s.sure you all the Spiritual Herbs, elixirs, and weapons will be at your disposal as long as you join my Sky Sword Peak. Besides, except me, you obey no one!”
“Peh! Not long ago, you’ve just poached a listed disciple, named Li Muyun, from my peak. Now you want Ding Hao. You’re too greedy… Ding Hao, come to my Divine Sword Peak. I promise you’ll succeed me. One day, when you defeat me, you can be the next peak master!”
“Old man, you’re really shameless! Are you cheating a peerless genius with an empty promise? Ding Hao, don’t listen to that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Come to my Herb Hall. Haha, I can give you endless Spiritual Herbs and elixirs.”
“Hey, what’s wrong with you? Ding Hao is a genius for cultivation, and he is not an alchemist. Why do you need Ding Hao?”
“It’s none of your business! I want to cultivate a more capable Ding Hao with a large number of elixirs. Do you have any problems with it?”
The previous quiet hall immediately became lively.
Those arrogant High Levels who were going to watch the scene of bustle were looking at Ding Hao as if he were their long-lost son. They hurriedly promised Ding Hao all kinds of benefits, rus.h.i.+ng to take Ding Hao as a disciple.
Even Peak Master Luo, who was always indifferent, couldn’t help but say, “Ding Hao, would you like to enter my Human Sword Peak? I will teach you whatever I’m capable of. You’ll have access to all the sword libraries in my sect. You can practice inside any of them on your own without any restraints.”
It was a simple but unprecedented promise.
Other people were stunned, but they understood immediately. None of the Peaks or factions had ever had such a talented martial artist. If one of the Peak or faction could get Ding Hao and train him, he would definitely be the next sect leader of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect. Then, he would lead their own Peak or faction to the top soon.
Ding Hao had never thought that things would actually develop like that.
When killing Lu Pengfei and others three days ago, Ding Hao actually decided to justify himself according to that rule. Unexpectedly, as he showed part of his strength now, all the sect masters went mad fight for him.
In fact, he didn’t show his entire power.
He skillfully controlled the attack power of the snowflake equal to a blow of a one-apertured congenital grandmaster to conform with the sect rules. His strength was as strong as that of a great grandmaster if he went all out. Moreover, if those masters knew that, they would definitely go crazy.
Just when Ding Hao considered how to deal with it—
“Ding Hao, I have been challenging you just according to official principles. It’s nothing personal. Now that your behavior is in line with the rules, I will no longer punish you. To be honest, I very much appreciate you. In you, I saw my arrogance and my self-confidence when I was young. Let’s forget the unpleasant things. If you join my Sentencing Hall, I promise you can patrol the sect and have the right of execution after you become a great grandmaster. You’ll be the next president of the Sentencing Hall.”
Jade Master said with a smile, looking very sincere.
No one had thought that Jade Master, the man who wanted to punish and kill Ding Hao before, now changed his att.i.tude, enthusiastically inviting Ding Hao.
Ding Hao was also stunned.
He now knew that Jade Master actually belonged to the Sentencing Hall. No wonder he was so arrogant. The Sentencing Hall controlled the laws and rules of the sect. It had authority over most people. In recent years, it grew larger and larger inside the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect, and there was a tendency for it to surpa.s.s Li Jianyi, the head of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect.
Jade Master made such a generous promise, which meant that he had treated Ding Hao as the heir of the Sentencing Hall. Although he was not the Chief of the Sentencing Hall, he was in a very high position in the Sentencing Hall, so his promises almost were equal to the Chief’s.
However, Ding Hao did not feel honored and relaxed. Instead, he feared Jade Master, who was really a terrible man.
On such an occasion, he changed his att.i.tude to invite Ding Hao. That was a great risk to himself because he had to swallow his pride and Ding Hao would probably refuse him and taunt him. And that would be a great shame for him. In fact, as soon as Jade Master stated his invitation, Ding Hao did have a strong impulse to taunt him, but Ding Hao did not say anything.
One who could control his own mood was the most terrifying man.
Therefore, Ding Hao first responded to the invitation of Jade Master.
The answer contained only seven words!
“People with different interests don’t work together!”
Hearing that, Jade Master nodded and did not say anything. He did not look disappointed either.
However, Ding Hao, who had cultivated the Mind Essential, saw the slight cold light in the handsome master’s eyes through his sharp sixth sense at a glance. At that moment, the man was like a curling venomous snake, whose tongue darted out in that instant, leaving people chill.
Ding Hao understood instantly that the flas.h.i.+ng cold light meant that since then, the horrifying young man like a lurking snake had already considered Ding Hao as his mortal enemy.
“I hope you don’t come to mess with me, or…”
Ding Hao snorted in his heart. He did not want to make trouble, but he was not a coward. If Jade Master insisted on standing in his way, Ding Hao would definitely not be soft-hearted.
As soon as he thought of that, Ding Hao was quite calm and quickly made a decision.
He bowed respectfully to the masters present, and then extremely euphemistically rejected their invitations. In their disappointed eyes, Ding Hao came to the graceful Peak Master Luo, saluted respectfully, and said, “I’d like to…”
The moment he was speaking—
“Wait!”
A lazy voice suddenly sounded in the hall out of the blue.
This voice was extremely strange, not belonging to anyone in the hall.
Everyone looked at each other and then looked over in the direction of the sound.
They saw a weirdo with a gray coat, unshaven beard and loose hair, silently appear in the hall, holding a golden wine gourd in his hand, and looking at Ding Hao cheekily. A strong bouquet permeated the hall.
“Senior?” Ding Hao was shocked.
That sudden uninvited guest was the strange person who taught Ding Hao “Closed Door Sword Movement”. After that day, since their departure at the peak, Ding Hao had not seen him for nearly a year. He did not expect to meet him at such a moment. Now, the mysterious geek actually appeared again.
“Who are you? How dare you enter the Hall Chief Palace of the Sentencing Hall without permission? Do you want to court your death?”
Shen Ku, who had been standing aside and was envious of Ding Hao, finally had a chance to show off. He stepped forward and shouted at the weirdo.
“How rude!”
“How dare you!”
“Step back!”
Almost at the same time, most of the people in the hall, including the always calm Peak Master Luo, changed faces and angrily shouted. One of them even slapped Shen Ku and sent him back flying to the side.
“In front of our Great Martial Uncle, how dare you be so arrogant?” Peak Master Luo looked cold.
Great… Martial Uncle?
With his face covered in his hand, Shen Ku completely did not understand what happened.
The next moment, except for some very old men, all the elders knelt before the weirdo and yelled respectfully, “I bow in respect before Great Martial Uncle!”
Shen Ku was totally stunned.
Ding Hao also felt shocked.
That was so unbelievable! How shocking the ident.i.ty of the mysterious man was!
