Chapter 968 - 966, Challenge
Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo returned to the Disciple Court after parting ways with Ye Lifeng.
"Stop right there!" Just as they entered the Disciple Court, three disciples blocked their path.
The surrounding disciples, seeing this, quickly gathered around, all eagerly waiting to watch the drama unfold. Currently, it wasn’t just these three senior brothers who harbored grievances against Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo; others similarly found them displeasing.
They were newcomers, yet they enjoyed special treatment that others had never received. Moreover, due to their entry into the secret realm for cultivation, they had caused an imbalance in the Sect’s Immortal Spirit Energy, seriously impacting others’ ability to cultivate for the past two months.
What infuriated them the most was that the two were granted slots in the selection contest without having to compete in any match.
"Why are you blocking our way?" Lu Hanmo asked the three who stopped them. He and Shushu were mentally prepared and had anticipated facing the wrath of these disciples.
"We want to challenge you!" said a tall, thin youth. He was He Linping, ranked first among the core disciples of the Liangyi Sect, possessing immense prestige among the disciples. Even he had never received the kind of special treatment that Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo had.
Before meeting Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, he thought that since the Sect Leader valued them so highly, they must possess some extraordinary qualities. But now, upon meeting them, he felt they were merely mediocre. Their Cultivation was far inferior to his, and he wondered how they had managed to cause such a commotion.
"What if we refuse your challenge?" Luo Shu asked with raised eyebrows.
"You must accept the challenge, or we won’t let you leave," said He Linping. He was determined to challenge the two today, intending to show the Sect Leader who truly was number one among the Liangyi Sect disciples.
"In that case, I shall humbly accept your guidance," Lu Hanmo bowed and said.
