Qin Nanās eyes flickered as he turned around and said, āElder Hua, what is it? I donāt think Iāve broken any rules.ā
The crowd was startled too.
What was happening?
Why did the atmosphere between Qin Nan and Elder Hua feel strange to them?
Suddenly, some among the crowd recalled the news about something that had taken place at the Trading Hall ten days previously. Hua Jian had been trying to get the Mentoring Elder to pick on Qin Nan, but Qin Nan had resolved it by displaying a terrifying Martial Skill Talent.
Could it beā¦
The eyes of the disciples glittered.
āQin Nan.ā Elder Hua surprisingly transmitted his voice to Qin Nan in a gentle manner, āDo you know that Hua Jian has asked me to pick on you during the trial? However, I did not follow his request. Qin Nan, judging from the strength that youāve displayed, you will surely have a bright future.ā
āWhat is Elder Hua implying? Please be clear.ā
Qin Nan calmly responded.
āHehe, itās pretty simple.ā Elder Hua wore a smile as he continued, āIāve heard that youāve earned over ten thousand Monarch Crystals after selling the Monarch Arts of the Human Peak, right? Recently, Iāve had my eyes on an artifact, but Iāve been running short on funds. Donāt worry, if you run into any problem here at the Dragon Emperor Clan, feel free to look for meā¦ā
Saying this, he wore a thoughtful expression.
Since Elder Hua was an elder, he was experienced in dealing with situations like this. He would be an idiot to follow Hua Jianās order, thus he had planned to convert Qin Nan himself, so he could get his hands on the Monarch Crystals through him, which would also cause Hua Jian to owe him a favor!\nHe was confident that Qin Nan would accept his offer.
āHehehe, Elder Hua, why couldnāt you just say that you wanted my Monarch Crystals? Iām sorry, thereās no way I would give you the Monarch Crystals. Please ask someone else!ā Qin Nan uttered a hollow laugh and replied.
This old man was definitely up to something.
Elder Huaās expression stiffened. He did not expect Qin Nan to reject his offer!
Did he really think that he was the same as Hua Jian?
He was an elder who possessed a great authority!
There were plenty of things he could use to deal with him!
As for the disciples, they glanced back and forth between the two. They clearly knew the two were communicating with their Divine Sense.
However, they were clueless as to the content.
āQin Nan!ā
Elder Hua snapped thunderously all of a sudden, giving many a great scare, āIn my opinion, thereās something fishy about your strength. Thereās no way you could achieve a unique Martial Sacred Realm with a mere first-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit! Therefore, I now declare that you are prohibited from taking a top-tier spot in the Dao Origin Chamber!ā
Qin Nanās face instantly coldened.
The crowd was astounded.
Something fishy? A first-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit?
These were nothing but excuses! It was obvious that Elder Hua was trying to pick on Qin Nan!
āHehe, Qin Nan, so what if your strength is outstanding, you still wonāt be able to take a top-tier spot. Thatās what you get for being so full of yourselfā¦ā Xuan Yue was delighted seeing this, with a gloating look.
āElder, I donāt agree with that. Whatās wrong with a first-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit? I too have a first-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit, but Iām still ranked one thousand three hundredth on the Monarch Ranking. Even those with a fourth-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit are ranked lower than me!ā At this moment, Mu Mu stepped forward and spoke in a cold tone.\nMany were stunned.
Even Qin Nan wore an astounded look.
This woman had just been targeting him, but she was now speaking on his behalf?
āIām an elder of the Dragon Emperor Clan, whoās in charge of the Dao Origin Chamber. If I say Qin Nanās strength is fishy, that will be the truth!ā Elder Hua was feeling troubled, as he did not expect Mu Mu to interfere. However, since the situation had already developed in this direction, he would be firm until the very end!
āYouā¦ā
Mu Muās eyes burned furiously.
Before she could speak, Bai Xingyang and the other disciple immediately stopped her.
āElder Hua, youād better not cross the line.ā
Qin Nan said with a calm tone, but everyone could detect the murderous intent from his words.
āCross the line? Iām sorry, Iāve always been fair and just to everyone!ā Elder Hua was not affected by the words. He had decided to teach Qin Nan about the authority that an elder had!
QIn Nan took a deep breath.
It was not his first time encountering something like this.
The only difference was, this time, he was completely alone in the Dragon Emperor Clan.
āSince Elder Hua has spoken so, Iāll not take the top-tier spot. I do hope Elder Hua would give me a middle-tier spot!ā Qin Nan wore a calm expression. Either way, now was not the time to act ruthlessly. He should compromise for now.
Once he achieved the Martial Progenitor Realm and refined many Martial Trees, he would let this Elder Hua pay!
Xuan Yue and the rest of the crowd were surprised.
Nice one!
Without Qin Nan in the picture, they would have a higher chance of securing themselves a top-tier spot.
Meanwhile, Elder Hua uttered a laugh, āHAHA, Qin Nan, thatās funny.ā\nThe smile on his face was withdrawn as he wore a stern look and snapped, āAs I mentioned, thereās something fishy about your cultivation! Therefore, you wonāt be getting a middle-tier spot. You can only get a bottom-tier spot!ā
The disciples were stunned.
They did not expect Elder Hua to go this far.
He had even stopped Qin Nan from taking a middle-tier spot.
Xuan Yue was overjoyed. He was happy to see Qin Nan suffer!
That being said, if it werenāt for Qin Nanās identity as an inner disciple, Elder Hua would not hesitate to drive him out from the chamber.
āBottom-tier spot?ā
Qin Nan squinted his eyes as a cold murderous aura was unleashed.
This time, he was really infuriated.
He had already compromised, but this Elder Hua still proceeded to pick on him further.
Did he really think he, Qin Nan, was someone that he could bully easily?
āWhat is it? Youāre not willing to, are you? If thatās the case, just leave!ā Elder Hua ignored Qin Nanās murderous aura and snapped.
This was what you get for opposing my will!
āElder Huaā¦ā Mu Muās eyes began to emit a dark aura.
She had no idea why she was so furious.
āForget it.ā Qin Nan glanced at her as he interrupted her speech. He withdrew his murderous aura and responded with a smile, āSince Iām already here, thereās no way I would take my leave. Iāll take the bottom-tier spot.ā\n
