Hearing his son's question, Zheng Fan smiled mysteriously, "Do you think there is anything else worthy of my laughter now?"
"Dad, just tell me."
Zheng Song smiled bitterly, how could he have guessed.
"I broke through."
Zheng Fan said slowly and in a calm tone.
However, Zheng Song was left stunned on the ground. It took him a while to come back to his senses and said in a daze: "Dad...you...you said you made a breakthrough?"
Zheng Song looked at Zheng Fan with surprise and disbelief on his face.
"Um."
Zheng Fan smiled and nodded, "Thanks to Duan Lingtian."
"Duan Lingtian?"
Zheng Song was a little confused, "As an outer disciple, what can he do to help you...Dad, are you making a mistake?"
"This has nothing to do with whether he is an outer disciple or not."
Zheng Fan shook his head, "Today, even if the sect leader comes in person, he may not be able to help me break through. In short, if it were not for Duan Lingtian, it would probably take a long time for me to break through... I owe him a favor.
"
Zheng Song took a breath of air. He really couldn't imagine how an outer disciple helped his father break through.
Soon, under his investigation, Zheng Fan told the whole story one by one.
Only then did Zheng Song suddenly realize.
"Duan Lingtian."
Zheng Song was filled with gratitude towards Duan Lingtian.
He knew only too well how many years his father had stayed in the ninth level of the Void Realm...
Today, if Duan Lingtian hadn't awakened his father, even in a few years, his father might not be able to successfully break through to the 'Enter the Void Realm'!
This is indeed a great favor.
Duan Lingtian and Lu Qiu continued to walk up the mountain road to the main peak, Tianshu Peak.
Tianquan Hall, above.
"Elder Lu Qiu, when are the assessments for the inner disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect usually held?"
On the way, Duan Lingtian remembered his purpose of leaving the Stalactite Cave today and asked Lu Qiu beside him.
"The inner disciples' assessment is held every six months, usually one month after the outer disciples' assessment... Today happens to be the day of the outer disciples' assessment. Therefore, the inner disciples' assessment is exactly one month away from now.
Months of time.”
Lu Qiu said slowly.
Now, Lu Qiu, who had seen Duan Lingtian's cultivation at the 'Eighth Level of Yuan Dan Realm', was not surprised that Duan Lingtian asked about the inner disciples' assessment.
In his opinion.
With Duan Lingtian's current strength, it is easy to pass the inner disciple examination.
Once the outer disciples break through to the eighth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, they are sure to pass the examination of the inner disciples.
"A month from now?"
Duan Lingtian nodded, and then asked, "Elder Lu Qiu, do you need to register separately for the inner disciple examination?"
Lu Qiu shook his head, "No need. On the day of the inner disciples' assessment, you can just go directly to the 'assessment platform' at Tianshu Peak."
"Assessment desk?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned. He was not familiar with the main peak, Tianshu Peak.
"The assessment platform is the vast platform where you were on when you participated in the outer disciples' assessment half a year ago."
Lu Qiu explained patiently, without the slightest hint of impatience.
In his eyes, Duan Lingtian now has a bright future.
In the future, if you stay in the Seven Star Sword Sect, you will definitely be the pillar of the Seven Star Sword Sect, and it is not impossible to become the next generation leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
If he leaves the Seven Star Sword Sect, he will definitely become a famous figure in the Qinglin Empire.
As far as he knew, in the history of the Qinglin Empire, there seemed to be no one who could rival Duan Lingtian in terms of martial arts talent.
He believed that once Duan Lingtian grew up, the Qinglin Empire might not be able to tolerate Duan Lingtian.
"It turns out that's the assessment platform."
Duan Lingtian suddenly realized that he clearly remembered that vast platform. After all, it was the place where he participated in the assessment of outer disciples.
Not long after, Duan Lingtian and Lu Qiu finally arrived at the ‘Tianquan Hall’.
Tianquan Hall is also located on a vast platform halfway up Tianshu Peak, and is magnificent.
Duan Lingtian and Lu Qiu stepped forward and stood side by side outside Tianquan Hall.
"Master of the Palace, Lu Qiu brings Duan Lingtian to ask for an audience."
Lu Qiu stood in front of the Tianquan Palace and spoke loudly. His voice contained Yuan Power and spread out, covering the entire Tianquan Palace.
After a while, a young man about twenty-six or seven years old, with a thin build and a hint of gloom between his brows, walked out of the main hall of Tianquan Hall. His sharp eyes narrowed and looked at Lu Qiu outside.
and Duan Lingtian, "Master lets you go in."
The young man's voice was hoarse and deep, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but frown.
"He is the adopted son of our Tianquan Peak Master, Wu Yongqian."
Lu Qiu's Yuanli condensed sound reached Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian nodded, walked forward side by side with Lu Qiu, and under the leadership of Wu Yongqian, walked into the main hall of Tianquan Hall.
As soon as he entered the main hall of Tianquan Hall, Duan Lingtian saw a middle-aged man standing inside.
This middle-aged man is similar in age to Kaiyang Peak’s Peak Master ‘Zheng Fan’. He has an extremely ordinary appearance. He is the kind of person who can’t be found among others...
Duan Lingtian's mental power can be vaguely detected, and this middle-aged man's cultivation level should be comparable to that of 'Zheng Fan' before his breakthrough.
Peep into the ninth level of the virtual realm!
"He should be the peak master of Tianquan Peak."
Duan Lingtian's heart moved and he thought to himself.
Although he has never met the master of Tianquan Peak, as a disciple of Tianquan Peak, he has heard of it...
The peak leader of Tianquan Peak is named ‘Wu Dao’!
"Father, they are here."
As expected, after Wu Yongqian and Duan Lingtian came in, they bowed to the peak leader of Tianquan Peak, ‘Wu Dao’, and reported to him, his hoarse and deep voice full of awe.
Then, Wu Yongqian stood behind Wu Dao.
"Lord Peak Master."
Lu Qiu bowed respectfully to Wu Dao.
"Peak Master."
Duan Lingtian also nodded to Wu Dao.
If it were normal times, if Duan Lingtian was like this alone, maybe not many people would care.
But now, Duan Lingtian's attitude when facing Wu Dao is in sharp contrast to Lu Qiu...
Wu Dao frowned slightly, a little unhappy.
"presumptuous!"
Wu Yongqian, who was standing behind Wu Dao, looked at Duan Lingtian with a pair of piercing eyes and gave him a cold shout.
However, Duan Lingtian ignored Wu Yongqian and looked at Wu Dao instead, with a calm expression on his face, as if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his expression.
When Wu Yongqian saw that Duan Lingtian dared to ignore him, his face darkened, and his eyes flashed with a cold light, choosing people to devour.
Lu Qiu stood beside Duan Lingtian, and now she was also breaking into a cold sweat for Duan Lingtian.
"Are you Duan Lingtian?"
Wu Dao's brows stretched, and a pair of eyes instantly turned cold and stern as he stared at Duan Lingtian.
At the same time, a powerful aura surged out from Wu Dao's body, pressing down on Duan Lingtian...
Get a glimpse of the aura of a strong man at the ninth level of the virtual realm!
However, in the face of Wu Dao's powerful momentum, Duan Lingtian seemed to have no feeling at all. He stood on the same spot, his face unchanged, motionless as a mountain.
Wu Dao's aura continued to increase.
Duan Lingtian's expression remained unchanged, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
That's a calm smile.
"What a Duan Lingtian!"
Finally, Wu Dao's momentum was completely restrained by him, and he laughed, his displeasure just now disappeared, "He is worthy of being the one who can kill the first person in the outer sect, 'Shi Hao'. Duan Lingtian, now, the Seven Star Sword Sect's outer sect."
You deserve the title of "Number One of the Sect"!"
Duan Lingtian didn't take it seriously as Wu Dao changed his face at every turn, and nodded, "Thank you Peak Master for the compliment."
Wu Yongqian, who was behind Wu Dao, heard Wu Dao praising Duan Lingtian, and his cold and stern eyes took on the luster of jealousy and viciousness...
He is Wu Dao's adopted son.
But since he was a child, he had never heard Wu Dao praise him like this.
"Neither humble nor arrogant, he is a rare talent."
Wu Dao looked at Duan Lingtian, nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Duan Lingtian, this time, you killed Shi Hao, won the first place in the outer martial arts competition, and won glory for our Tianquan Peak... You said, you
Want a reward?"
reward?
Duan Lingtian frowned.
Wu Dao's words were full of condescension, as if the superior was speaking to the inferior.
Make him feel very uncomfortable.
"Peak Master, I am also a member of Tianquan Peak. Before leaving Tianquan Peak, I should do something for Tianquan Peak."
Duan Lingtian said lightly, a little less interested.
"Leave Tianquan Peak?"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Wu Dao was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and nodded, "I almost forgot, this time you won the first place in the outer sect martial arts competition and also got a 'Xuanyuan Fruit'
...If nothing unexpected happens, you should be at the seventh level of the Yuan Dan Realm by now."
The seventh level of Yuan Dan realm?
Lu Qiu, who was standing aside, twitched the corner of his mouth.
I feel that Wu Dao really underestimates Duan Lingtian.
"With your methods, it is not difficult to enter the seventh level of Yuan Dan Realm and pass the inner disciple examination."
Wu Dao looked at Duan Lingtian, pondered for a moment, and stared at Duan Lingtian with a pair of eyes filled with hot light, "Duan Lingtian, do you know why I asked Lu Qiu to come to you?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head, "Please let the Peak Master make it clear."
"Duan Lingtian, I don't like to mince words when I speak, so I'll just say it straight..."
When Wu Dao spoke, not only Duan Lingtian and Lu Qiu, but also Wu Yongqian who was standing behind Wu Dao also looked at Wu Dao.
Finally, Wu Dao took a breath and said loudly: "I, Wu Dao, the master of Tianquan Peak, want to accept you, Duan Lingtian, as my direct disciple!"
Wow!
As soon as Wu Dao said these words, the three people, including Duan Lingtian, were stunned for a moment.
Duan Lingtian was speechless for a while.
When did he become so popular?
Duan Lingtian reacted and shook his head, "Peak Master, I'm sorry, I have no plans to become a disciple yet."
He even rejected Zheng Fan, who had now broken through to the 'Enter the Void Realm', let alone this Wu Dao.
"presumptuous!"
Wu Yongqian, who was behind Wu Dao, had just heard that his adoptive father was going to accept Duan Lingtian as his direct disciple, and he was so filled with jealousy that he almost exploded his chest...
Now, seeing Duan Lingtian directly rejecting his adoptive father, he completely exploded.
