Chapter 241: I could go on for half a day
“Hahaha.”
Just then, a burst of laughter rang across the arena. Tian Xu then appeared at the side out of a sudden. “How could I miss the competition that my disciple organized?”
Dao Tianwang immediately left his seat and went to the side after seeing Elder Tian Xu.
Tian Xu said no more and sat next to Lin Fan.
The other disciples greeted Tian Xu with respect too.
“Master, you’re the only one coming? Where are the other elders?” Lin Fan whispered.
Tian Xu currently wore a broad smile on his face. He caressed his beard and shook his head. “They aren’t coming. If they did, they would have to give out prizes too. Those stingy people can’t bear to do so.”
“So does it mean that you came with prizes, master?” ~The elders are so stingy that they chose to be absent so they wouldn’t have to spend a cent!~
“Didn’t I take some pills from you previously? I’ll give them out as prizes later on.” Tian Xu laughed softly.
“But those are mine.” Lin Fan said, dumbfounded.
“Disciples, why is there a need to distinguish between what’s yours and mine? As an organizer, you should hurry and start the competition. Don’t let them wait for too long.”
Tian Xu laughed while looking at the arena. It seems like he did not feel that there was anything wrong.
Lin Fan sighed helplessly. ~Master is smart to take my pills and use them as prizes!~
But all the disciples were waiting for him. Thus Lin Fan made up an opening statement quickly.
Lin Fan stood up and looked down at the participants. A loud and clear voice containing a tiny bit of Earth energy could be heard across the sect.
“Good morning, Junior brothers and sisters.”
“Under the bright sun, today, we, who harbor dreams of success, will kick start the first competition for disciples held by the Invincible peak. The competition will take place in our harmonious sect, accompanied by cheers symbolizing our youth.”
The disciples in the arena all stared at Lin Fan. Adrenaline rushed through every one of them.
Lin Fan’s words made them felt at ease like they were all part of a big family. It helped to calm down those nervous as well.
Deep in the sect. The Patriarch and elders were sitting in a circle.
“Great. He made a great speech. I like the harmonious Magnificent Flame Sect. Tian Xu’s disciple is quite influential.” Huo Rong said, smiling widely.
Gu Mu seemed to be displeased. He didn’t really fancy Lin Fan as Yun Xiao was suppressed by him.
The Patriarch nodded in agreement too. “Mhmm, that’s indeed a good speech. I trust Tian Xu and his disciple. When was the last time our sect was this lively?”
“What is Tian Xu doing there? How would he have so many pills for the disciples?” Ge Lian took a glance at the arena. free(w)ebnovel.com
The other elders remained silent. They did nothing other than to spectate the competition. They were slightly afraid of Lin Fan, too, as they were worried that the other peak leaders would be suppressed when they returned.
“From what I know, Tian Xu got many pills from his disciple.” Huo Rong said, answering Ge Lian’s question.
“Wouldn’t he be ashamed to take pills from his disciple?” Hearing Huo Rong, Ge Lian felt suffocated.
“Ge Lian, has he ever felt ashamed?” Huo Rong gave Ge Lian a side glance. “Are you not experienced enough? If not for our luck, we might be dead now.”
Hearing this, Ge Lian’s hand shook slightly as he has thought about a terrifying matter.
Outside the palace.
Lin Fan let out a light cough and bowed to the crowd. “This competition hopes to spread the message that friendship comes first and competition comes second. I don’t wish to see any of you getting arrogant or too depressed about your results. Be brave and don’t lose hope, as this doesn’t represent anything. Give it your all, and be proud even if you lost, as you tried your best.”
“And, now, I announce that the competition has begun!”
As soon as he finished his words.
Cheers could be heard.
“Senior brother Lin......Senior brother Lin.”
Some disciples were looking at Lin Fan, full of excitement. They had never heard such a speech, and they felt that the speech changed their outlook on life.
They would always be extremely depressed when losing a competition in the past. But after hearing Lin Fan’s words, it was no longer the case.
A few slim and beautiful female disciples looked at Lin Fan with heart-shaped eyes. They would kill to be his partner now.
“I really love this sect. Senior brother Lin is so nice, and he has such a great voice!”
The Invincible peak disciples were proud that they had such a senior brother.
Wang Fu looked up, clenching his fists. His eyes were shining brightly as he looked at Lin Fan, who was his idol. After hard work, he had now broken through to the Earth Star Border realm. Even though he was still only an Earth Star Border Stage One, he was already improving at an incredible speed compared to others.
But Wang Fu wasn’t even slightly arrogant. Because his idol, Lin Fan was way more powerful, yet still lowkey.
Especially the current atmosphere made him even more excited.
Tian Xu turned to his disciple, mouth twitching. “Disciple, you’re such a good speaker. Master has never heard such things in my life before.”
“Master, those were nothing but simple quotes.” Lin Fan smiled thinly.
~Do you think that the sports carnival I took part in during my past life were for nothing?~
~I can go on for half the day if not for the time constraints.~
Yun Xiao, who was by the side, had his eyes stuck on Lin Fan too. ~ He’s really good. I wouldn’t be able to make half a comment.~
Dao Tianwang was currently staring at Lin Fan too. ~Senior brother Lin is something else. His words might be simple, but they seemed to hold significant meaning. I should study it to benefit.~
Lu Qiming, Zhang Long, and the rest went up on stage as judges. Their roles held great responsibility.
Suddenly, Lu Qiming took out a small notebook he always had with him and glanced at it. He closed it and hugged it in his arms, clearing his throat. “Senior brother Lin said that this competition should be fair. No life-threatening attacks should be used, and don’t go overboard. Get into your position and get ready, start!”
Lin Fan’s eyes twitch. ~When did I ever say that?~
But when he turned to Lu Qiming, he saw that he was holding onto a small notebook as if he was taking down notes.
To Lu Qiming, he was determined to remember everything Lin Fan had just said. It excited him the more he thought about it. It made him feel that his soul had been enlightened.
~Record. I must record it down. I will take it out to study when I have time to find out its meaning.~
And the competition began.
The inner and outer disciples’ competitions were held at the same time.
The disciples might not be strong, but as their Senior brother, Lin Fan took a close look at their performance to gauge where they stood.
“Disciple, look. They are doing great and have obviously trained well. Your Body Tempering pool is useful after all.” Tian Xu nodded.
“Master, your disciple is prepared to build more Body Tempering Pool in the peak. One is not enough now.” Lin Fan laughed.
“Yeah.” Tian Xu nodded. “This is the only good thing about the Imperial Cauldron of Heavenly River. The Oceanus sect might be disgusting, but at least they have done a good deed.”
Lin Fan smiled thinly. ~There are way more good things about the cauldron!~
At the same time, voices could continuously be heard coming from the stages.
Third class outer disciple, Zhang Yun, victory.
First-class outer disciple, Cui Bing, victory.
Third class inner disciple, Ni Ruyue, victory.
...
The disciples who won were in cloud nine, while those who lost weren’t too disappointed, as they felt they were improving.
How great is it to fight to your heart’s content?
It’s even better when you give your all.
Yun Xiao watched the competition closely. He nodded from time to time, and with every skill that a different disciple performs, he learned from them.
It was as if he was making use of others’ bodies to perform the skillset they practiced. Yun Xiao seemed to be in a magical world.
Lin Fan looked at Yun Xiao weirdly after feeling the aura. ~That was unexpected.~
~Well, if he could rise above all in the sect and become a peak leader, how normal can he be?~ Lin Fan thought and smiled thinly.
“Next up, First-class outer disciple, Mu Ling versus Zhan Zhangfeng.”
“Eh?” Lin Fan raised an eyebrow. He had some impression of Mu Ling. ~The birthmark on her face is unforgettable, after all.~
When Mu Ling heard her name, she was excited yet anxious.
It was all because of Lin Fan, who was watching the competition. She looked up at Lin Fan, who was currently holding his face with his palm. Her palms turned sweaty, knowing that Lin Fan would be watching.
A breeze blew past Lin Fan.
Lin Fan’s hair was currently dancing in the air slightly from her point of view. The smile plastered on Lin Fan’s face felt like it was for her.
The surrounding female disciples start to gossip.
“Look at Mu Ling; she’s star-struck.”
“Yeah. But has she forgotten who Senior brother Lin is? Only a goddess would have the right to be his wife. Who does she think she is?”
“Shh, keep your volume down. I heard that Senior brother Lin dislikes disciples to conflict with each other.”
“But Senior brother Lin is so handsome, though. Look at the way he sits. So handsome and charming.”
Seeing how Lin Fan was sitting, Tian Xu couldn’t help but remind him. “Disciple, sit well like how a senior brother should look.”
“Master, the chair is too hard. My butt hurts.” Lin Fan replied.
“First class inner disciple, Mu Ling...” Lu Qiming repeated himself again.
His words cut off Mu Ling’s train of thought. She looked down and hurried up the stage. “I apologize, Senior brother. I was thinking about something previously.” She bowed to Lu Qiming. freeweb(n)ovel
“Focus and do not be careless.” Lu Qiming reminded her nicely.
“Yes.” Mu Ling took in a deep breath, cheering for herself silently.
“There’s such an ugly person in the sect?” Tian Xu said, dumbfounded.
“Master, watch your words. It’s hurtful.” Lin Fan glanced at Tian Xu. “But what’s the use of being a beauty? They are nothing but a pink skeleton if they die.”
“This woman has a great body and facial features. It’s just the birthmark that....Haish.....” Tian Xu sighed.
“Master, how can you tell?” Lin Fan said, shocked. ~How good are his eyes? How can he see it that clearly?~
Tian Xu smiled and remained silent, looking like an experienced man.
