<strong>Chapter 133 - Straight into the Inner Pce</strong>
“Pce Chief Qin, why have youe here?” Instructor Qi immediately rushed to escort him and solicitously asked.
Qin Wushangughed, but did not reply, and turned his gaze to Yun Che instead. After giving him a once over, he said, “Yun Che, you just said that you wanted to challenge Murong Yi three monthster, is this true? If it was something you just said without thinking through the matter, it is still not toote to take back your words now.”
In regards to Qin Wushang calling him by name, Yun Che wasn’t surprised at all. He nodded and replied, “Of course it’s real. Murong Yi has also agreed. Since Pce Chief Qin also happens to be here, I’d like to ask of you to bear witness for us. Within Blue Wind Profound Pce, I believe there is no one who has more authority than Pce Chief Qin to be a witness.”
After the other newly admitted disciples came to know of Qin Wushang’s identity as Pce Chief, most of them revealed expressions of reverence, yet Yun Che’s expression seemingly did not change. His gaze was calm and his speech was neither servile nor overbearing. “May Pce Chief Qin coincidentally bear witness for us” this sentence was spoken in an iparably natural tone, as if he wasn’t speaking to the earth-shaking Blue Wind Imperial City’s Pce Chief, but a normal passer-by on the road. This sort of reaction made Qin Wushang feel slightly surprised. He nodded whileughing and said, “With Profound strength at the tenth level of Nascent Profound Realm, you’re challenging a ninth ranker of the True Profound Realm; it’s my first time encountering such an interesting matter in all my years at Blue Wind Profound Pce. Not bad, young man. You have courage and drive. If you are certain that you’re not ying around here, I am quite willing to be your witness.”
“Murong Yi, you’ve just agreed too. About this, do you have any other questions?” Qin Wushang asked Murong Yi.
Murong Yiughed, but it was a very contemptuousugh. He said respectfully, “Reporting to Pce Chief, although agreeing to a little rat’s challenge is very demeaning, but he wounded my cousin first. After Sikong Du prevented me from taking up for my cousin, he still came to me of his own ord to get abused. I have no reason not to agree. And with Pce Chief bearing witness yourself, I won’t be afraid that he’ll take back his words after he’s beaten into a sorry state!”
“Very well.” Qin Wushang nodded as he revealed a hint of a smile on his face, “It’s settled then. The appointed date will be ten o’ clock in morning three months from now, and the location will be right here. At that time, I will be here personally. Yun Che, if you lose, you won’t retaliate no matter how Murong Yi decides to punish you, and you can’t let anyone hinder him either. This is what you’ve said personally. You cannot go back on your words.”
“Of course.” Yun Che replied without any hesitation. Then, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Murong Yi, saying, “But what if I win?”
“You win? Haha...... HAHAHAHAHAHA!” Murong Yiughed loudly and the audience also burst into raucousughter. For a new disciple at the Nascent Profound Realm to challenge Murong Yi of the Inner Pce..... and think of winning? This was practically the biggest joke under the heavens.
Murong Yiughed until he was rocking back and forth and was unable to catch his breath for a long while. It was only afterughing for a long time did he stutter out in the midst of hisughter, “I, lose? HAHAHAHA.... I will lose? If I.... lose, I’ll ept your punishment! Whatever you make me do, I’ll do. HAHAHAHAHA!”
“I won’t need that.” Towards his face filled with sneers, Yun Che also beganughing, “If you lose, I only need you to agree to three conditions, three conditions you definitely cannot reject, do you dare?”
“Dare! There isn’t anything I wouldn’t dare to do! Let alone three things, even if it’s thirty things or three hundred things, I still wouldn’t frown upon that.” Murong Yi shouted out straight away without any hesitation. Rather than believing that Yun Che could possibly beat him, he would rather believe that hogs could climb trees. But there was a niggling doubt in his heart; it was strange that Pce chief Qin Wushang would suddenly have interest in witnessing this sort of thing that didn’t concern him one bit. It was also totally meaningless, and was a challenge initiated by a fool.
“Very well.” Qin Wushang nodded his head again with a gentle look on his face, “All these years, Blue Wind Profound Pce has been peaceful and always conformed to norms. Many years have passed since a challenge has appeared with an entirerge gap between realms. Three months can indeed change a lot. Perhaps after three months, you would really have the ability to fight against Murong Yi. Nobody knows for certain. It really makes one anticipate. Yun Che, you’re the top scorer in the Profound Strength Assessment for this group. This shows that you have good foundation. In the Combat Strength Assessment, you’ve transcended your level to beat Feng Yue. This shows that you’re stunningly gifted in your usage of profound strength, and today, you’ve challenged Murong Yi. This shows that you have a shocking amount of courage and boldness. These few attributes you’ve manifested prove that you are qualified to be an important disciple that the Profound Pce would nurture.”
“As Vice Pce Chief, I’d really like to see what you’ll bring forth to fight Murong Yi with after those three months. Murong Yi always trained within the Inner Pce, so for the sake of fairness within these three months, Yun Che, you don’t have to report in tomorrow. Within the three months time from tomorrow onwards, although you are an official disciple of my Blue Wind Profound Pce, you don’t belong in any of the three pces, not Outer, Middle or Inner, but you can freely enter all three pces, and you can also enjoy all the resources in the Inner Pce. Your living quarters will also be arranged to be within the Inner Pce.”
The moment Qin Wushang said these words, apart from Qin Wushang, everyone’s jaws dropped open in shock. Even Yun Che was also greatly shocked.... Allowing a disciple who had been recently admitted, who was only at the Nascent Profound Realm, to enjoy all the resources within the Inner Pce; within the history of Blue Wind Profound Pce, this was a definite first. It was something that all the disciples who were just admitted didn’t even dare to dream about.
Qin Wushang disregarded the crowd’s reactions and continued, “With this, you and Murong Yi will have the entirely same set of training circumstances, and this will be considered fair to a certain extent. Three monthster, if you win, you will rece Murong Yi’s position on the Heavenly Profound Ranking, and will officially be an Inner Pce disciple. But if you lose, not only will you be chased out of the Inner Pce, you’ll also never be able to be an Inner Pce disciple thereafter, even after your strength afterwards is satisfactory. Yun Che, do you have any objections to this sort of arrangement?”
Qin Wushang’s initial words were undoubtedly an enormous grace to Yun Che but the few veryst words added an extremely cruel condition. As such, some people’s dissatisfaction at Yun Che being allowed to enter the Inner Pce straight away werepletely eliminated. At sixteen, Yun Che was an astonishing genius who actually defeated a Middle Pce disciple. There was a definitely possibility for him to be able to enter the Inner Pce in a few years. But if he were to enter the Inner Pce now for three months and then be defeated, even if he had the right to enter the Inner Pce a few yearster, he can only feel powerless and regret his past deeds.
Yun Che nced at Qin Wushang and nodded, “Alright, I agree.”
Yun Che understood, the sudden special treatment he received was definitely rted to Qin Wuyou. At the same time, it was also definitely rted to Lan Xueruo.
To let a stately Vice Pce Chiefe in person for him and break traditions that had never been broken before in order to allow him to enter the Inner Pce.... Yun Che was sure that even if Qin Wuyou was Qin Wushang’s own brother, he still wouldn’t let Qin Wushang make such decisions. Then, the only exnation would be Lan Xueruo.
What exactly was Lan Xueruo’s identity and background......
“This.... Isn’t this rather inappropriate? For such a lowly person like Yun Che, what right does he have to step into the Inner Pce? It’s just like allowing a pariah to enter a lion and wolf’s den!” Murong Yi said as he knitted his eyebrows.
“Murong Yi, you have objections?” Qin Wushang shot Murong Yi an indifferent nce. His voice was as calm as usual, but it contained a force that made one’s heart beat rapidly.
Murong Yi trembled in his heart and rushed to say, “No! Your disciple doesn’t dare to question Pce Chief Qin’s decision. Your disciple was only.... only worried that the Inner Pce’s reputation would be tainted by this kid at the Nascent Profound Realm.”
“This matter is settled here. Within this three months, there must be no conflicts between the two of you. Alright, continue the assessment. Elder Qi, I’ll leave it to you to personally assess this group’sbat strength assessment. Sikong Du, take Yun Che for a walk through the Inner Pceter, and help him settle into his living quarters while you’re at it. My order will immediately be sent through a sound transmission to the Inner Pce.”
After he finished speaking, Qin Wushang looked deeply into Yun Che’s eyes and prepared to leave. Yun Che suddenly spoke, “Pce Chief Qin, this disciple has a request to make.”
Qin Wushang had just acknowledged Yun Che’s identity as a Pce disciple straight away, so Yun Che naturally felt like referring to himself as a disciple. Qin Wushang turned and replied, “What is it.”
With his gaze, Yun Che hinted at Yun Xiaofan, who had been beaten up by Feng Yue, and said, “In the strength assessment, Yun Xiaofan has yet to disy his abilities. He was hurt gravely in malice by Feng Yue and is incapable of continuing his assessment. Yun Xiaofan is merely fifteen years old, but hase here all on his own from a distant ce. If he has to give up on the assessment just because of this, it’ll be simply too cruel and unfair to him. So this disciple would like to request Pce Chief Qin to give him a chance to take a make up exam after his injuries have healed.”
Yun Xiaofan who was previously ashen-faced due to being grievously injured, lifted his head and gratefully looked at Yun Che as the light in his eyes violently trembled.
Qin Wushang took a look at Yun Xiaofan and nodded while smiling, “So I see. Mn, even though he is still young, he has a good foundation, and will be aplished in future. My Blue Wind Profound Pce would also hate to lose any moldable talent. Sikong Du,ter on, bring Yun Xiaofan to the Medicine Hall to treat his injuries while you’re at it. After he’s healed, Wuyou, I’ll let you assess hisbat ability personally, how about that?”
Qin Wuyou chuckled, “Of course there’s no problem.”
Yun Xiaofan’s eyes were already filled with tears. As he struggled to get up, he spoke while choking back his emotions, “Thank..... Thank you, Pce Chief Qin. Thank you, Instructor Qin..... Brother Yun, thank you....”
After he said this, his consciousness rxed and hepletely passed out.
At this moment, regardless of male or female, all eyes on Yun Che held an extra portion of respect.
Qin Wuyou and Qin Wushang left. Murong Yi also left with Murong Ye after passing a disdainful look at Yun Che. Yun Che then propped Yun Xiaofan up and followed Sikong Du. After bringing Yun Xiaofan to the Medicine Hall, he then followed him towards the Inner Pce.
“I simply do not understand what you were thinking. But based on how calm you are, I just cannot rte you to an idiot.” Sikong Du said in confusion.
“There’s a phrase that goes ‘ce someone on a field of death and he will fight to live’.” Yun Che replied, “The higher the pressure, the greater the motivation.”
“ce someone on a field of death and he will fight to live? But what you’re doing is simply just rushing towards death!” Sikong Du shook his head and continued, “Do you know the disparity between Murong Yi and yourself? You have an entire realm’s worth of difference! In just three months, even if you’re a world ss genius, even in the most extreme of circumstances, in three months, you will only be able to close the gap by two levels. What’s more is that in these three months, you will be training under the same conditions as Murong Yi. Not only does he have resources from the Inner Pce, he also has tremendous supplies from his n. His improvement speed, can only be faster than yours! When the momentes, what can you possibly bring out to fight against Murong Yi!”
