Xiao Lie

The following day, as the morning sun shone upon the Yuan Sect, beneath the dozens of giant volcanoes of the Fire Division, a sudden surge of fire, never before seen, quietly appeared.

The source of this buzz was the news that one of the new disciples who joined the Fire Division had won the Hundred Dynasties War Championship.

Even though most of the previous champions of the Hundred Dynasties War had joined the Yuan Sect, the Yuan Sect had as many as Eight Divisions, so the Fire Division had not produced a champion of the Hundred Dynasties War for nearly a hundred years.

Of course, what concerned these Fire Division disciples the most was that this newly joined disciple was able to receive the Fire River Anointment on his very first day of joining!

Generally speaking, only disciples who have performed exceptionally well within the Fire Division are qualified to receive the Fire River Anointment.

Many disciples had obviously worked hard behind the scenes to prepare for this year's Fire River Anointment, but no one expected that this year's Fire River Anointment would be taken away by an outsider.

This situation undoubtedly displeased many disciples. Yuan Sect emphasizes survival of the fittest, and everything depends on strength. Lin Langtian, a mere newcomer, enjoying such preferential treatment right from the start has already aroused dissatisfaction and even secret resentment among some veteran disciples...

Near the Fire River to the north of the Fire Division, there is an exceptionally large giant volcano. On the volcano, there is a vast platform, which is now bustling with people.

Near the front of the platform, a group of people were gathered, and in the center of them, a man in a red robe stared at the Fire River with a gloomy expression. Anyone could see the anger in his heart.

"Senior Brother Xiao Lie, don't be angry. Nobody expected that this year's Hundred Dynasties War champion would join our Fire Division and even steal your spot for the Fire River Anointment..."

Beside the man in red robes, several disciples of the Fire Division were also talking to him, trying to calm his anger.

As they spoke, the Fire Division disciples also showed expressions of shared hatred and indignation.

The person before him was one of the most likely disciples in the Fire Division to receive the Fire River Anointment this year, and he himself was determined to obtain it.

But unexpectedly, this newly initiated disciple suddenly appeared and snatched the spot for the Fire River Anointment before everyone else, so it's no wonder he was furious.

"Hmph, he's just a newly initiated disciple. Even if he's the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War, he should know what seniority means! If he wants to receive the Fire River Anointment, he'll have to stay in the Fire Division for two more years!" Xiao Lie said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Division disciples around him all nodded with cold smiles. The Yuan Sect had strict and ruthless rules, and placed great emphasis on hierarchy. Lin Langtian had already committed a major taboo by snatching the Fire River Anointment from an older disciple as a newcomer.

Of course, anywhere, as long as you have enough strength, you can break through all qualifications and constraints.

The prerequisite is that you have enough strength!

Coincidentally, Xiao Lie, with his peak strength at the Seven Yuan Nirvana Stage and three years of experience, could be considered a core figure in a small team within the Fire Division. How could Lin Langtian, a mere newcomer, possibly oppose him?

There were clearly quite a few disciples who rushed to Fire River Platform after receiving the news. Besides Xiao Lie, there were also many other personal disciples.

However, they weren't as furious as Xiao Lie. They simply crossed their arms and waited with interest for what would happen next. They all knew very well that the new disciple named Lin Langtian wouldn't receive the Fire River Anointment too easily...

Call out!

Just as the disciples on the Fire River Platform were waiting, a series of whooshing sounds came from afar, and then more than a dozen figures swept over from a distance and landed on the platform. The leader was Lin Langtian and his group.

With the arrival of Lin Langtian and his group, the originally noisy platform immediately became much quieter, and all eyes instantly converged on them, many with a hint of amusement in their gazes.

Lin Langtian, who landed on the platform, clearly sensed the unusual atmosphere, but his face did not show any surprise.

He knew that in a fiercely competitive place like Yuan Sect, even if he was a direct disciple, his name as a new disciple would not be enough to convince the others.

Those of his more senior direct disciples would certainly resent him for receiving the Fire River Anointment...

Lin Langtian was already mentally prepared for how to deal with this situation.

"Senior Brother, these people seem rather hostile..." Mo Tie, Liu Yuan, and the others, still clinging tightly to Lin Langtian as they had during the Hundred Dynasties War, whispered.

As a newly joined disciple, and with the friendship he had formed during his time with the Yan Alliance, Lin Langtian naturally formed a small group with Mo Tie and the others. Furthermore, having witnessed Lin Langtian's talent and abilities, they naturally had great faith in him.

Although this small group is still very weak at the moment, if Lin Langtian can successfully gain a foothold in the Fire Division in the future, then his small group will naturally become an important faction within the Fire Division.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly, then waved his hand to reassure Mo Tie and the others.

Seeing this, Mo Tie and the others breathed a sigh of relief, but then their eyes flickered as they looked at Lin Langtian.

For some reason, they had a vague feeling that even in the Yuan Sect, which was full of geniuses, Lin Langtian's outstanding talent could not be hidden...

"So you're Lin Langtian, the newly joined personal disciple of the Fire Division?"

Shortly after Lin Langtian appeared, Xiao Lie, dressed in red robes, was the first to lose his composure, taking a step forward and speaking in a deep voice.

"The real show is about to begin..."

Upon seeing Xiao Lie emerge, this thought flashed through the minds of all the disciples present.

"It is indeed me," Lin Langtian said, glancing at the man indifferently.

Seeing Lin Langtian's even more pretentious expression than his own, Xiao Lie was taken aback. His face immediately darkened, and his bright red robe burned fiercely like a raging fire.

"Kid, don't think you're anything special just because you won the Hundred Dynasties War. As the number one sect in the Eastern Xuan Region, Yuan Sect has no shortage of champions!"

"I'm giving you a chance. Obediently hand over your spot for the Fire River Anointment, or don't blame me for being ruthless. In the next few years in the Fire Division, I'll show you what it means to wish you were dead." Xiao Lie said with a sinister expression.

Seeing Xiao Lie utter such vicious words, Lin Langtian was not surprised at all. After all, even those big shots at the department head level did not show any mercy, let alone the disciples below.

In response, Lin Langtian's lips slowly curved into a smile, and then he looked at Xiao Lie and sneered.

"Since this senior brother is being so aggressive, then I, your junior brother, have no choice but to test your abilities..."

He was new to the area and was looking for a suitable opportunity to establish his authority, so that he could compete for the position of Fire Division Spirit General in order to subdue the Chaos Abyssal Demon Flame.

And this Xiao Lie seems to be the stepping stone for me to make a name for myself in the Fire Division!
