"Enough!"
The leading elder of Divine Profound Hall finally spoke.
Although Zhang nglong and Wan Ning's strength had a large gap, relying on Zhang nglong's understanding of the diverse cultivation techniques at Divine Profound Hall and his endless thods of counteracting them, Wan Ning couldn't fully utilize his abilities.
Just now, Zhang nglong had already countered Thunder Illusion Dance, Great Annihilation Hand, and Ruin Origin Finger. From now on, even against people from other superpowers, these martial arts might only end up getting beaten.
If this continues, Divine Profound Hall would have no secrets left. In the future, anyone from Divine Profound Hall would be nothing more than walking trash.
"Wan Ning, co back, you can't handle him."
"But..." Wan Ning, having every move countered, was evidently getting a bit riled up, but to stop now would an he could never regain his dignity.
From now on, everyone would know that Wan Ning, a core disciple of Divine Profound Hall, got embarrassed by a re intern disciple of the Sunset Sect, without even being able to do anything in return.
"No buts, aren't you humiliated enough?" The elder's tone was also getting impatient.
"Yes!" The elder evidently held strong authority within Divine Profound Hall, Wan Ning shot a fierce glare at Zhang nglong but could only retreat obediently.
"Hey? Weren't we supposed to fight? Are you admitting you're just a dog now?"
"How about I give you three moves? If that's not enough, five moves? How about eight? Ten moves, but no more!"
Seeing Wan Ning silent, Zhang nglong taunted even more eagerly, "You're not making a move now, are you? Does this an I can join any faction I want? Do whatever I want? You can't stop , right?"
"Gu Xiao!" The elder was evidently suppressing his anger, but as elders, they couldn't possibly make a move against Zhang nglong, and Wan Ning, as a core disciple, was powerless against him, so he could only endure.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Today, if you choose to join the Sunset Sect, that is your freedom, we can't do anything about it," the elder said in a stern tone, "I know you inherited many things about Divine Profound Hall in Ancient Cave Heaven, it's your fortune, we have no words."
"If you have no words, then don't speak. Farewell!" Zhang nglong replied in a provoking manner.
"Wait!" The elder from Divine Profound Hall called out to him, "Despite inheriting those things, you can learn and use them, they're yours, but if you ever decide to spread the counteracting thods, Divine Profound Hall will not let it slide!"
"Whenever you change your mind and feel our Divine Profound Hall is still appealing, our doors are always open to you."
"Thank you very much," Zhang nglong replied without the slightest hint of politeness.
This conversation left all the young talents sowhat unbelieving.
"At this level, the Divine Profound Hall elders seem unable to deal with Gu Xiao."
"What does this an? Are they conceding?"
"This matter will definitely not end here."
"Yes, Gu Xiao is now like a ticking ti bomb, if he leaks all the information about Divine Profound Hall's martial techniques, this faction is practically done for."
"So what can be done? To apprehend him outright? People from the Sunset Sect wouldn't allow it, right?"
"If a fight breaks out, and the Sunset Sect insists on protecting Gu Xiao, it might escalate into a war between two factions. Even if Divine Profound Hall wins in the end, the losses would be severe."
...
"Elder Qiu, are we really going to let these kids run off to the Sunset Sect?" Elder Xi and others were still sowhat unwilling.
"We've made quite a scene today," said Elder Qiu, who naturally wished to take Zhang nglong back directly, but lacked the courage, "but given this situation, we simply don't have the capability. Those few older guys from the Sunset Sect have all understood the Nine Nether Sunset Art, none of them easy to deal with."
"For now, we can only return and report this matter to the Hall Master, and let the Hall Master make a decision."
"It's the only option."
...
"Hahaha, not bad kid!" Qi Congyun slapped Zhang nglong on the back, leaning closer, "Tell , how much do you know about Divine Profound Hall's cultivation techniques?"
"All of it!" Zhang nglong smiled slyly, perfectly matching Qi Congyun's mischievous expression.
"Hahaha! With you around, Divine Profound Hall is nothing in our eyes. Open a small class for later, carefully introduce their weaknesses and countering techniques, and even without breaking through the second layer of the Nine Nether Sunset Art, I can co and go as I please in the Sunset Sect!"
"What's the point of that?" Zhang nglong sneered, "If it were , I'd just go to their cafeteria for free als, leave unflushed in their bathrooms, and blast BGM while clubbing in their Inner Gate."
"You really know how to hit them where it hurts!"
...
"Second on the Heavenly Pride Rankings, Lin Yuan!"
With Zhang nglong's decision settled, next was Lin Yuan. Zhang nglong hadn't had a chance to discuss the past two and a half years with Lin Yuan, but judging by the changes in him, Lin Yuan seed to have acquired so inheritance related to body cultivation.
"Almost identical to Zhang nglong, Lin Yuan also received invitations from various factions. Before the assessnt, he had already gained the favor of 18 superpowers; he only needed to make a choice.
"I choose War God Mountain!" Lin Yuan declared without hesitation.
"Hahaha! Good choice!"
The elder from War God Mountain was a frail-looking old man, but his vigor didn't match his appearance. The entire War God Mountain was focused on body cultivation, ranking third among the 18 superpowers in overall strength!
"Apologies everyone, hahaha!" Though Lin Yuan was sowhat less skilled than Zhang nglong, his talent in past years was quite outstanding. Since they couldn't get the first, achieving the second isn't too disappointing.
"Third place, Long Sen."
"I choose Yujian Villa!" Long Sen said without hesitation, as he was entrusted by the Sword Spirit to help revive Yujian Villa, so he had no need to deliberate.
The elder from Yujian Villa was overjoyed, he learned from the previous conversations among the talents that Long Sen had received an inheritance from Yujian Villa, his participation would undoubtedly bring trendous aid to the villa.
The faces of those from Divine Profound Hall visibly turned sour again; none of the top three selections chose Divine Profound Hall! Such an outco was unimaginable in past years.
In truth, it's not hard to understand, as the prestige of Divine Profound Hall just took a serious blow, joining them now ans considering whether the faction might collapse in the future.
To put it visually, Divine Profound Hall is like a major corporation with its core assets exposed, very likely to be replaced at any ti!
And right then, Zhang nglong went on to annoy people again.
He shouted towards those waiting to choose factions, "Hey, friends, why not choose Divine Profound Hall? Their KPI is probably failing this year, look how pitiful they are, why not pity them a little!"
