That sound was like the sound of a bubble bursting.
Very light but very clear.
Especially the elders who rushed closer could hear it clearly.
"Is this a wave of breakthrough in cultivation?"
"Did I hear correctly?"
"He has just taken the body-rejuvenating pill. Shouldn't his cultivation level be declining now, or face the risk of sudden death? How can he make a breakthrough in a crisis?"
Several elders looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.
Because the cracking sound coming from Si Wenkang's body is indeed the fluctuation that can be heard when his cultivation level breaks through.
After hearing their exclamations, there was a commotion around them.
"No way? Si Wenkang's cultivation actually increased instead of falling?"
"Didn't he take the Body Rejuvenating Pill?"
"No, I don't believe it. The fluctuations coming from his body must be the noise Ye Chen made in order to deceive the elders!"
The one who is most difficult to accept is naturally Peng Gao, the instructor of Qingwu Hall.
"Elders, don't be deceived by illusions, you must let Si Wenkang test it to the end!"
Even though Peng Gao's voice was loud, several elders still did not act immediately.
After all, after staying in the Piaomiao Sect for so many years, they knew very well whether the sound just now was a breakthrough in cultivation, and it was impossible to fake it.
"Si Wenkang, since Instructor Peng said you have to test it before you believe it, then you should follow the elders and test it!"
Just when everyone thought that Ye Chen would try his best to stop him, he said something completely opposite.
"Didn't you try your best to stop it just now?" an elder asked subconsciously.
"I stopped him just now because Si Wenkang was at the critical moment of his breakthrough and could not tolerate any interruption. But now that he has successfully broken through, I will not stop him anymore!" Ye Chen smiled.
"What? He jumped out to object just now because he knew that Si Wenkang's cultivation was on the verge of breakthrough?"
"But, how could this happen?"
"After taking the body-rejuvenating pill, won't your cultivation level only decrease? How can it still increase?"
"What kind of freaks are Ye Chen and Si Wenkang?"
Everyone was surprised.
Several elders from the Law Enforcement Hall around him were also dubious.
At this time, Peng Gao, who was still unwilling to accept it, urged again: "Elders, seeing is believing, do you want to continue to listen to Ye Chen's words?"
"Since a test is needed to clarify the facts, Si Wenkang, please follow me to the test bench to take the test!" In desperation, an elder had no choice but to say to Si Wenkang.
"Yes, elder!" Si Wenkang nodded, stood up, and strode towards the testing platform.
"He really dares to go?"
"Is it true that he didn't suffer the backlash from the Huan Ti Dan?"
"What a miracle that has never happened in thousands of years!"
"I want to see if his cultivation is really the same as before, a third-level master!"
Seeing Si Wenkang walking towards the test bench, everyone immediately cast expectant glances.
There was only Peng Gao, whose old face was full of anxiety. His hands were hidden in his sleeves and his nails dug into his flesh without even noticing.
Because the results of Si Wenkang's test will determine who between him and Ye Chen will be expelled from the Piaomiao Sect.
The calmer Si Wenkang and Ye Chen are, the more confident they are.
"Okay, Si Wenkang, let's start the test!"
No matter how worried he was, as the presiding elder's voice fell, Si Wenkang walked to the testing table and stretched out his hand to a crystal clear test bead.
"Buzz!"
There was a roar, and the test bead immediately erupted with a brilliant halo.
On the display stand next to it, the corresponding cultivation level appeared.
Fourth level teacher!
This number is like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart hard.
"Fourth level of division, am I right?"
"My cultivation level actually increased instead of falling?"
"Before the competition, wasn't his cultivation level at the third level of a master level?"
"I seriously doubt that what he just took was not the Body Rejuvenation Pill!"
"Yes, I also think it is another mysterious elixir that can enhance combat power but has no side effects!"
While it was extremely difficult for everyone to accept it, they also speculated on various possibilities.
The presiding elder was also surprised and said: "Si Wenkang, is the pill you just took really a body-rejuvenating pill?"
"Yes!" Si Wenkang nodded.
"But……"
The presiding elder wanted to say something else, but was instantly interrupted by Si Wenkang, "Elder, the test results have come out. Does it matter whether what I just took was the Body Rejuvenating Pill?"
As soon as these words came out, the presiding elder was immediately speechless.
Indeed, whether Si Wenkang took the Body Rejuvenation Pill before or not, it no longer matters now.
Because the test results have proven everything.
Even if what Si Wenkang took was indeed the Body Rejuvenation Pill, as long as there were no side effects, it would prove that Ye Chen did not harm his disciples for his own purposes.
"Elders, can I go back?"
Just when everyone was in a daze, Si Wenkang's voice came again.
The presiding elder suddenly came to his senses, made eye contact with the other elders, smiled bitterly and nodded, "Go ahead, I just made it difficult for you!"
"Thank you for your understanding, elder!"
Si Wenkang bowed his hands and returned to the high platform where Ye Chen was.
"Master, my disciple didn't embarrass you, did he?"
"You did very well!"
Ye Chen nodded happily, then looked at the presiding elder, "Do you elders have any objections to today's competition?"
All the elders frowned, it was neither a yes nor a no.
To be honest, they didn't want to expel Qingwu Hall instructor Peng Gao from the Piaomiao Sect because of such a competition.
After all, everyone has witnessed the quality of Peng Gao's teaching over the years.
Driving such an experienced instructor out of the Piaomiao Sect is definitely a loss to the Piaomiao Sect.
Furthermore, over the years that Peng Gao has been teaching, he has trained many rising stars for the Piaomiao Sect, and he has made outstanding achievements. It is very inhumane to expel him from the Piaomiao Sect like this.
As for Peng Gao, who was standing on the high platform, his old face turned blue and white.
He was very unwilling to accept this result.
It's just that the matter has come to this, even if he is unwilling to do anything, there is nothing he can do.
"Master, why don't you admit your mistake?"
Ximen Xiao, who was next to him, lowered his voice and said: "You can keep the green hills here, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. It can be seen that the elders don't want to expel you from the Piaomiao Sect. As long as you are more sincere and apologize to Ye Chen, we will continue
If you follow me and beg for mercy, maybe big problems can be reduced to trivial matters!"
Lu Kai on the other side hurriedly agreed: "Senior Brother Ximen is right, a man can bend and stretch. Master, if you endure the humiliation and bear the burden for a while, you will definitely find a chance to turn around!"
Peng Gao's face was still filled with unwillingness.
Ximen thought with a smile on his face, and seemed to have thought of something again, and said grimly: "Master, have you forgotten that in three months, our Piaomiao Sect's annual outer sect competition will be held?"
As soon as these words came out, Peng Gao's mind suddenly moved and he nodded: "Yes, after three months, it is indeed a great opportunity to make a comeback!"
