Ever since Li Yuan was promoted to become the hall master, the position of senior disciple had remained vacant. Naturally, it was time to select someone new.
There were now six Inner Force Realm disciples in the martial arts academy, and every one of them had their eye on the position of senior disciple.
To ensure fairness, the competition would still be decided by drawing lots.
Soon, the disciples for the first match stepped into the arena: Ji Hongchun and Dong Yuezhen.
This pairing was quite interesting. Even Li Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Ji Hongchun had once been his opponent, while Dong Yuezhen was practically half his disciple.
Qi Zhengyang, seated beside him, also cast Li Yuan an astonished glance. A trace of amusement appeared at the corners of his mouth, and he was curious to see how this match would turn out.
It was not only Li Yuan and Qi Zhengyang who perked up. The disciples watching also grew excited, especially the new disciples who had just joined. They stared without blinking at the two people in the center of the arena.
To these newcomers, Inner Force Realm martial artists were incomparably formidable existences. They had mastered inner force and were far stronger than people like them, who had not even begun Body Tempering.
That was also why Qi Zhengyang had chosen to select the senior disciple while the new disciples were entering the academy.
He wanted these new disciples to personally experience the might of Inner Force Realm martial artists and feel the power that far surpassed that of ordinary people. For disciples who had just joined, this was also a form of encouragement.
That way, the newcomers would have more motivation when practicing martial arts.
"Since we're fellow disciples, stop at the point of contact."
