Chu Li shook his head: "He can't be the mountain master..."
"My young master, he couldn't do anything when the mountain master was there, but when the mountain master was away, Elder Jin became the leader of the crowd. Everyone followed his lead and no one would go against his wishes. Even if the mountain master had once
Even if the young master personally announced that he will take over as the next mountain master, no one may go against Elder Jin's wishes!" Qiao San said anxiously.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Do you think the mountain master has more prestige, or does Elder Jin have more prestige?"
"Well... of course it's the mountain master!" Qiao San hesitated and said slowly.
Chu Li glared at him.
Qiao San hurriedly smiled and said: "There is really no way to explain. Normally, it is the mountain master, but once the mountain master passes away, the words of the mountain master may not be able to block what Elder Jin says now. So, young master, you cannot let Elder Jin do whatever he wants.
!”
Chu Li said: "Well, okay then, go and tell everyone that I will give a martial arts demonstration at the martial arts arena tonight!"
"Okay!" Qiao San nodded excitedly.
No matter what, let everyone know that the young master is back first.
Moreover, everyone benefited a lot from the young master's teachings on martial arts, and everyone admired them. They said that the young master pulled them back from the wrong path, which was really amazing. He was indeed the young master and a well-deserved genius.
As long as the young master talks about it carefully, everyone's hearts may change.
In the martial arts world, everything is about martial arts, and martial arts is the most important. If there is a mountain master with amazing martial arts, everyone will feel at ease. If the mountain master's martial arts is not good, everyone will not be so confident.
The young master once abolished Lu Tianji's martial arts, which was his biggest advantage. Moreover, the mountain master had personally announced him as the next mountain master.
He ran out excitedly to inform everyone.
The sun sets and twilight rises.
After dinner, everyone came to the martial arts arena in twos and threes.
The lights in the martial arts arena were brightly lit like daylight.
There was no one on the high platform, and everyone was a little disappointed. They still had a lot of questions to ask the young master, but the young master always came and went in a hurry, as if he was too busy to take time to answer everyone's questions.
Jin Ye, Hu Huarong and Lu Tianji soon appeared in the audience.
Behind them were Xia Liyan, Murong Chun and four other elders.
Xia Liyan's face was as gloomy as drops of water, while Murong Chun looked calm and glanced around from time to time.
He saw Murong Liang in the crowd and shook his head.
Murong nodded.
Murong Chun knew that Murong Liang had no chance at all, and Murong Liang was much more mature now, so he agreed not to have any more illusions.
Seeing Lu Tianji, people whispered.
Whether Lu Tianji can become the master of the mountain has always been a topic of debate among people.
Some people think there is no problem. Although the martial arts is not as good as the young master, after all, Elder Jin is the guarantor. They can't trust Lu Tianji but they can trust Elder Jin. Some people think it is inappropriate. The young master is the next mountain master. This is what the mountain master said himself.
,Besides, the young master’s martial arts are stronger.
Jin Ye and Hu Huarong stood together, and Lu Tianji stood behind them.
Hu Huarong stroked his silver beard and frowned: "What the hell is he doing?"
"We have to be on guard." Jin Ye nodded.
Lu Tianji looked indifferent.
He is no longer so eager for the position of Mountain Lord. His martial arts skills are not as good as those of Zhuge Tian. Even if he becomes the Mountain Lord, he still lacks confidence and inevitably feels guilty. He might as well just give it to Zhuge Tian. Unfortunately, he cannot say this and can only hold it in his stomach.
.
Hu Huarong said: "No matter how hard he tries, the general trend is the trend and there is nothing he can do about it!"
Jin Ye caressed his beard and chanted softly, remaining silent.
There was a sudden silence around, people looked up one after another, and Chu Li appeared on the high platform.
Chu Li glanced at everyone like lightning and said slowly: "I am very relieved to see that everyone has made great progress. Finally, I did not waste all my efforts and took out the things I packed at the bottom of the box to share with everyone."
Everyone clasped their fists.
What they profoundly taught Chu Li was indeed a secret understanding, and ordinary people would never tell it.
Chu Lidao: "Today is not to teach martial arts, but to tell everyone about the mountain master."
The crowd was in an uproar.
Chu Li continued: "The mountain master has ascended to heaven in Shengjing. I have seen this with my own eyes. I have also seen the mountain master's body. He left with a smile. He must be eager to go to heaven to enjoy the blessings."
Everyone smiled.
Chu Li said: "The mountain master left this for me before he died."
As he spoke, he took out a black ring from his arms. It shone black and shiny under the light, as if it were carved from ink jade. It was actually a strange material, and no one could tell what it was.
"Mountain Lord's Ring!" Everyone was surprised.
Chu Li put the ring on his left index finger. It just fit. He showed it in front of everyone and said with a smile: "How about it?"
"Wait!" Hu Huarong shouted.
Chu Li put down his left hand and said slowly: "Elder Hu, what advice do you have?"
"How did you get this Mountain Lord's Ring?" Hu Huarong snorted.
Chu Li smiled lightly: "Elder Hu thinks I stole this ring?"
"...Humph, it's hard to say!" Hu Huarong said.
Chu Li shook his head: "Then when did I steal it?"
Hu Huarong frowned: "Maybe it was during the mountain master's retreat. The mountain master didn't wear this during the retreat!"
Chu Li laughed: "You carry the mountain master's ring with you, how could you not bring this?"
"The mountain master clearly said he didn't bring it with him!" Hu Huarong said solemnly.
The mountain master once told them before entering the customs that if he had any problems, the mountain master's ring was hidden at the end of the bed in his bedroom and could be given to the young master.
They hurried back and found the ring, but it was a fake. They never expected that it would fall into Zhuge Tian's hands!
They all knew that they had been tricked by the mountain owner, who did not trust them at all.
They wanted to go back, but Zhuge Tian had already returned.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head and said: "Why did the Mountain Master lie to Elder Hu and Elder Jin? It is obvious that the Mountain Master is wise and powerful, and he has already anticipated what the two elders will do. Sure enough, the Mountain Master has guessed it!"
He shouted to everyone: "I am the next Mountain Lord announced by the Mountain Lord himself, but Elder Jin and Elder Hu want to disobey the Mountain Lord's order?"
As he spoke, he raised his left hand again, and the mountain master's ring flashed black under the light.
He stared at the two of them with bright eyes.
Jin Ye said in a deep voice: "Young master, you can ascend to the position of mountain master if you want, as long as you can defeat the old man!"
Chu Li burst out laughing.
The old man Jin Ye looked at him with an unchanging expression: "They say that the young master is a genius. If he cannot conquer me with his martial arts skills, I will forgive him for not obeying his orders and willing to retire to the mountains and forests!"
He has been in charge of Shengjing for nearly a hundred years and has a deep foundation. His control over Shengjing is unparalleled. If he leaves Shengjing, there will be no formation master in Funiu Mountain, which will have a great impact on the safety of Shengjing.
Chu Li chuckled: "Since Elder Jin wants to retire, I won't force him. Elder Jin has worked hard for Funiu Mountain for so long and it's time to take a rest. Then I will learn from Elder Jin's clever tricks!"
He waved for Jin Ye to come on stage.
Hu Huarong glared at him, the boy is so rude!
Jin Ye waved his hand, suddenly flashed onto the stage, and punched Chu Li.
Chu Li also punched.
"Bang!" The two ordinary fists intersected, sounding like muffled thunder.
Jin Ye flew backwards violently, his body lifted off the ground like a rag doll, and he completely lost control.
Chu Li calmly looked at Jin Ye who stumbled to the ground and almost fell, but was supported by Hu Huarong, and said lightly: "Is there anyone who opposes my ascension?"
Everyone was silent.
Unexpectedly, the young master's martial arts skills were so strong that Elder Jin could not even catch a single move.
Just as Chu Li was about to speak, he frowned and looked up at the sky.
Two streaks of light streaked across the sky and fell straight down.
Everyone was shocked to realize that something was wrong and when they were about to escape, two streams of light arrived and two old men appeared. (To be continued...)
