"Those two sects barely have anyone left now. What's so good about going there? Besides, we all dislike their sect leaders. We prefer the Dao Master here.
"Haven't you heard? The Dao Master here is incredibly formidable. He founded this sect all by himself, and he's still very young.
"He can even tailor cultivation plans according to each person's circumstances. It's not like those two sects, where everyone has to figure things out alone. And I heard those two are truly awful. So many people refuse to go there because of that. I don't want to go either."
Tongtian was truly furious upon hearing this. He had no idea how people outside were spreading rumors about him. Hearing such words made it seem as if they had painted him as completely incapable.
"But I heard that the Dao Ancestor of this Daoist School is Tongtian's disciple. Since he is Tongtian's disciple, could he really be more formidable than Tongtian?
"Tongtian is his master. If you joined Tongtian's sect, wouldn't you be on equal footing with Li Changsheng?"
Tongtian wanted to use this argument to make these people think that Li Changsheng was not so impressive, and that he himself was the truly formidable one.
"Haven't you heard the saying that the student surpasses the master?
"If you really haven't heard it, then you should listen carefully now."
"Faced with this, I truly don't even know what to say to you.
"What kind of person is Tongtian? Haven't you heard of him? If he weren't so jealous, how could Li Changsheng have possibly established his own sect here?
"I believe Li Changsheng in this matter. I certainly don't believe Tongtian. He is an extremely jealous person.
"He cannot stand seeing his disciple surpass him, which is why he acted that way.
