Chapter 108 - 103: Truly Worthy of Being the Master’s Disciple
Ling Tian Sword Master and Fire Flame Venerable left together, yet Ling Tian Sword Master’s pretentious words still hung in the air.
"Sect Leader, there’s no need to take him so seriously," Qing Guang Venerable said softly: "Even if Shi Nian’s true strength is beyond the Qi Refining Peak, so what? He’s just a disciple and can’t change anything. When it comes down to it, the key battles among the disciples are those in the Golden Core and Nascent Soul Stages. Especially the Nascent Soul Stage, with Li Nanfeng’s cultivation laid bare, he’s bound to clinch the top spot. By then, everyone will naturally recognize who truly knows how to teach disciples."
Qing Guang Venerable rarely spoke, and he usually stood there with barely any presence.
Now that he spoke up, he struck a chord with the Sect Leader, who looked a bit more pleased: "Exactly! When the Nascent Soul Stage competition begins, let’s see if he can still be so arrogant."
The Sect Leader had a good understanding of Lu Xingzhi and Yun Jian.
Lu Xingzhi was steady and had excellent comprehension, but his progress had stagnated for several years due to the burden of his conflicting Dual Spirit Roots.
As for Yun Jian, obsessed with sword practice, his attacks were fierce, but his shortcomings were equally obvious. As long as one could ward off his first three strikes, he would naturally lose his momentum.
Neither of them could possibly be a match for Li Nanfeng.
Thinking of Li Nanfeng triumphing over both, the Sect Leader felt somewhat relieved.
"Qing Guang, you really know how to keep your cool," the Sect Leader praised, looking at Qing Guang Venerable: "Look at that Fire Flame, rushing to be someone’s lackey, it’s downright embarrassing."
