Hearing Duan Lingtian's rhetorical question, the Lord of Qiushan City felt slightly embarrassed.
After all, from the very beginning, he concluded that Duan Lingtian was not a pure human martial artist.
Now, the facts are before his eyes, and he cannot tolerate disbelief.
"Duan Lingtian, could you please tell me why you were able to leapfrog the enemy and defeat the enemy?"
The Lord of Qiushan City asked.
Immediately, the scorching eyes of everyone present, including Tian Kui Guard and Tian Ying Guard, fell on Duan Lingtian one by one.
They are just as curious about it.
"Lord City Lord, you are actually quite right."
Duan Lingtian said to the Lord of Qiu Shan City: "That is...my body is indeed much stronger than ordinary humans."
The Lord of Qiushan City's eyes lit up.
"However, the reason why my body is strong has nothing to do with the holy beast...but because I once had an 'adventure'."
Duan Lingtian finished speaking in one breath, and everyone's eyes lit up.
Many people are even greedy.
However, Duan Lingtian's next words dispelled the greed rising in their hearts.
"That adventure was a strange 'spiritual fruit'. After I took it, I found that my body began to transform... Later, I went to that place many times to look for it, but I never found that kind of spiritual fruit again."
Duan Lingtian continued.
"I didn't expect there to be such a spiritual fruit in the world...it's your chance to get it."
The Lord of Qiushan City sighed.
Others thought so too.
"Duan Lingtian, it's so hard for you to hide this from me! It turns out that when you came back with me, you were only a martial arts practitioner in the early stages of the transcendent realm."
Lin Qingrong looked at Duan Lingtian and complained through Zhenqi Sound Transmission.
"At that time, I never said that I was not a martial arts cultivator in the early stage of transcending the mortal realm, right? I also didn't seem to say that I was a martial arts cultivator in the middle stage of the transcendent realm."
Duan Lingtian shrugged and responded via Zhenqi Sound Transmission.
"you……"
Lin Qingrong was speechless for a while.
Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that Duan Lingtian did not say that he was not a martial artist in the early stage of transcending the mortal realm, nor did he say that he was a martial arts cultivator in the middle stage of the transcendent realm.
From the very beginning, it seemed that I had the first impression.
"Tian Yingwei, I heard that you brought Duan Lingtian back... I will take note of your contribution."
After the city lord of Qiu Shan City returned the 'body test stone' to Lin Qingrong, he said to him.
"Lord City Lord, this is what I should do."
Lin Qingrong said quickly, but there was a look of joy between his eyebrows.
"Lord City Lord, if there is nothing else, I will retreat first."
Lin Qingrong said again.
"Well, please step back."
The Lord of Qiushan City nodded.
After Lin Qingrong left the chamber, calm returned to the chamber.
The other eleven people among the thirteen Taibao now looked at Duan Lingtian with eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"You can find such spiritual fruits... This Duan Lingtian is really incredibly lucky!"
This is what most people think.
Of course, there are also people who look ugly.
Such as Hou Lin, Zhang Jilong, and Zheng Jian.
With a faint glance at Duan Lingtian, Su Qi, who was standing behind the city lord of Qiushan City, began to close her eyes and rest her mind, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Back to business."
It wasn't until the Lord of Qiushan City spoke again that everyone's eyes left Duan Lingtian and fell on the Lord of Qiushan City again.
They knew that the Lord of the City was about to get down to business.
As for what the serious matter is, it is not difficult to guess.
It’s nothing more than a matter of ‘test’.
The Lord of the City will select two to three people who have achieved outstanding results in the test to become his disciples.
For a time, except for Duan Lingtian, everyone else among the Thirteen Taibao present was looking forward to it.
"Tomorrow, I will set a test for you...Tomorrow's test will be a 'points system'. The two who get the most points will become my disciples."
The Lord of Qiu Shan City glanced at Duan Lingtian and the other twelve people one by one, that is, the other twelve people among the Thirteen Taibao except 'Ling Yun'.
After hearing the words of the Lord of Qiushan City, many people's breathing became rapid.
"I called you here today to inform you... that you can choose to participate in tomorrow's test on your own, or you can choose to cooperate with others. Of course, you can only cooperate with one person."
The Lord of Qiushan City continued.
"Can we still find someone to cooperate with?"
Suddenly, many people's eyes lit up.
However, what the Lord of Qiushan City said next made them all dumbfounded.
"However, anyone who cooperates with others must bring a member of the Qianlong Camp who is not the Thirteen Taibao to participate in the 'test'... and the 'points' gained by the two of them will be divided into three.
They each take a portion, and the rest is given to the Qianlong camp member who is not the Thirteen Taibao."
As soon as the Lord of Qiushan City said these words, most people immediately gave up their thoughts.
Isn't this just looking for trouble?
Find someone to cooperate with, and they won’t reject it...
But it was hard for them to accept sharing the harvest with a 'burden'.
For a time, more than 90% of the people decided to participate in the test alone.
"cooperate?"
When the city lord of Qiushan City said that he could find someone to cooperate with him to participate in the 'test', Guo Li's eyes immediately fell on Duan Lingtian, full of expectation.
If she cooperates with Duan Lingtian, her chances will definitely be greater.
However, when the Lord of Qiushan City finished adding, she looked back with some disappointment.
Although, she knew that if she persisted, Duan Lingtian would definitely not reject her.
But, can she be so selfish?
cannot!
It would be fine if she just cooperated with Duan Lingtian and shared the points... Now, if she wants to cooperate with Duan Lingtian, she has to bring a 'burden' with her.
Forget it.
The most important thing is that they have to share the points with the burden, and each can only get one-third of the total points.
"Guo Li, let's cooperate."
Just when Guo Li was about to face him alone, a voice came clearly into her ears, making her body tremble.
Then, she looked at the young man in purple who was looking at her with a smile, the 'Duan Lingtian' she was looking at just now.
The true energy transmission just now came from Duan Lingtian.
After being surprised for a moment, Guo Li came back to her senses.
"Duan Lingtian, I know you have good intentions...but I can't drag you down."
Guo Li smiled bitterly.
"Drag me down?"
Duan Lingtian smiled.
If Guo Li knew that he was not interested in becoming the disciple of the Lord of Qiushan City, he didn't know what his expression would be.
Although Guo Li rejected his request, Duan Lingtian did not give up just like that.
"If you say that...then I will abstain from participating in the test set by the Lord of the City."
Duan Lingtian said to Guo Li via voice transmission.
"you……"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's almost childlike words, Guo Li was speechless for a while, "Duan Lingtian, please stop joking."
"I'm not kidding, I'm serious."
Duan Lingtian's face straightened and he said.
As time passed, Guo Li realized... Duan Lingtian was indeed not joking.
In the end, she had no choice but to compromise and choose to cooperate with Duan Lingtian.
If Duan Lingzhen really abstains from voting because of this, she will never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Of course, she knew that everything Duan Lingtian did was to help her.
Her heart was full of gratitude.
As the city lord of Qiushan City left with Su Qi, Duan Lingtian and his party also returned to Qianlong Camp.
As for the Tiankui Guards, they disappeared long before Duan Lingtian and his party left the meeting hall, and no one knows where they went.
However, Duan Lingtian and his party did not care about Tian Kuiwei's departure.
Tiankuiwei is a famous dragon that never sees its end.
Therefore, they are not surprised.
"Duan Lingtian, if the two of us cooperate... we have to find a third person."
On the way, Guo Li spoke to Duan Lingtian via voice transmission.
"Um."
Duan Lingtian nodded, "I already have someone chosen."
