Chapter 31: Challenge
Others couldn't believe what they heard just now. After all, indirectly, Jiang Hao had also insulted them too.
The disciple who spoke became red-faced. He had mixed feelings of anger and shame right now. He wanted to take the initiative in provoking Jiang Hao, but it backfired on him.
"You're right, but now that you're free, you wouldn't mind attending to uninvited guests, right?"
One of the stage 9 Qi Refinement cultivators spoke as he saw Jiang Hao didn't seem flustered by being surrounded. If he were in Jiang Hao's place right now, he would have been shaking.
Since provoking and imitation wouldn't work on him, it was better to just challenge him directly. Only cultivators at stage 9 or below could do that.
If he succeeded in beating Jiang Hao, his reputation would soar to the heavens in the sect, and he might receive some expensive gifts and resources from the seniors who wanted to see Jiang Hao's downfall.
So he took the initiative to be the first to challenge Jiang Hao. When the previous Foundation Establishment disciple saw that, he nodded his head in approval. He had already lost face, and this timely intervention would make others pay less attention to him.
Fair enough, others paid attention to the new development and waited for Jiang Hao's response.
Jiang Hao looked at the guy who spoke. He looked quite young, maybe about 19 or 20 years old. It was easy to figure out that he was at stage 9 of the Qi Refinement realm.
"Of course, but what do you want me to do? You know I am new in the sect, and I still haven't read the rules of the sect.
Let's not pretend, shall we? We all know why you guys are here, so how about you drop your pretense of being good guys and come clean with your real intentions?
