Duobao's Shock!

"Hahahaha……"

"This time, the position of personal disciple should belong to me!"

"What merit do you have? You don't deserve it!"

Zhao Gongming firmly believed that with his strength, he was invincible among the outer disciples!

Lin Chuan was originally an outer disciple, and moreover, a nobody.

How could such a person be compared to him?

He was completely not worth mentioning.

However…

Zhao Gongming did not know that his attack had no effect whatsoever; it had not succeeded at all.

The many outer disciples of the Sect of Interception might not have been very clear, only seeing Zhao Gongming's terrifying attack and involuntarily revealing a hint of fear.

Afterward, they began to waver.

After all, their own strength was still weak.

They were much weaker than Zhao Gongming, so naturally, they couldn't understand everything.

As for Duobao.

He shook his head slightly at this moment.

"The gap is too large…"

The gap he spoke of was not the gap between Lin Chuan and Zhao Gongming.

Rather, it was the gap between Zhao Gongming and Lin Chuan.

Duobao was initially quite puzzled. Why would his master let a nobody become a personal disciple? Wouldn't this cause dissatisfaction among many outer disciples?

Even if they didn't dare to say much.

It would always be like a thorn, deeply embedded in their hearts.

There would be problems sooner or later.

But his master had never paid any attention to it.

Duobao was quite confused.

But now, he had a slight understanding.

"Lin Chuan hid himself too deeply. He already possesses extraordinary strength, at least much stronger than Zhao Gongming."

"But he has always been a nobody, unknown and unheard of."

"He hid himself too deeply!"

"If it weren't for the master's sudden order, perhaps we would never have known. As expected of the master."

"As for Lin Chuan…"

Duobao's heart was greatly shaken.

After all, everyone initially held the same view, but the current situation had completely exceeded their expectations.

Lin Chuan was no ordinary person.

With the strength he had shown so far, he was enough to crush Zhao Gongming.

But even so, it couldn't be said that Zhao Gongming's strength was too weak, because Zhao Gongming's strength was well-known, and he was an outstanding figure even among the many outer disciples.

Therefore.

It could only indicate one thing: Lin Chuan's strength was exceptionally powerful.

"This… can he still take it?"

"Zhao Gongming is too ferocious. He went all out without a word. Terrifying!"

"No! That's not certain. After all, Lin Chuan was completely unharmed just now. If we underestimate him, it would be truly foolish."

"But the strength Zhao Gongming is showing now is extraordinary. Who can withstand it?"

"How about we make a bet?"

"Okay!"

"I bet Zhao Gongming can't break through his defense!"

"Then I bet Zhao Gongming will win this time!"

"Add me!"

"Add me!"

The many outer disciples of the Sect of Interception suddenly started to stir up excitement, and at the same time, they actually started placing bets.

It was clear that they now believed the battle between the two was not one-sided, which was why there were two different outcomes.

Each held a different view.

Amidst their shock, many still harbored a sliver of anticipation.

Especially since Lin Chuan was an unknown nobody. Now, not only had he instantly secured the position of personal disciple, but he had also displayed extraordinary strength.

This gave everyone a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps, as long as they reached a certain level, they too could become personal disciples.

In comparison, the path Zhao Gongming was taking required much more hardship and patience.

After all, it had been millions of years!

The disciples' unrestrained chatter reached many ears.

Zhao Gongming heard it too.

His face immediately darkened as he gazed at the spatial turbulence that completely obstructed his vision.

"Heh!"

"Someone actually said I couldn't break through the defenses? I'll give you a proper welcome then!"

"Can't break through?"

Zhao Gongming didn't believe it.

Especially now, the strength he displayed was incredibly formidable.

He believed he had long since broken through the defenses. His opponent was merely struggling to hold on, too afraid to surrender just to save face.

That was all!

However...

Zhao Gongming was completely unaware that Lin Chuan was even more frustrated at the moment.

[Hey, hey, hey, hey... Why didn't you call me when you were betting? Let me earn a little too!!]

[So infuriating, truly infuriating! They didn't even include me. Such a great opportunity to make money!]

[No, if they make such a big fuss, won't that solidify my position as his personal disciple?]

[This is bad, I've been tricked by that old rascal Tongtian again!]

Lin Chuan considered all these possibilities and became extremely dejected, yet he was powerless to refute them.

Was he supposed to admit defeat?

No! He could yield, but he wouldn't back down!

Thus, he could only give up helplessly.

Sect Master Tongtian almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon hearing this.

You want to get involved in everything?

Please, just be a decent person!

And why does everything have to be dragged back to me?

Sect Master Tongtian was highly suspicious. And why was he always the one getting caught in the crossfire?

It clearly wasn't his business, yet he was inexplicably implicated. He was truly frustrated, and it was all because of this brat.

This brat definitely had some serious issues with him, otherwise, why would he always be thinking of him from time to time?

"This brat thinks about being expelled every day. Don't you know that once I speak, I rarely take back my words?"

"Whether you want to be a personal disciple or not, you will be!"

Sect Master Tongtian's lips curved into a smile. Every time he saw Lin Chuan utterly depressed, he felt quite happy.

Who told the other party to constantly slander him in his heart?

In the entire Great Desolation, who dared to slander him for no reason? He was a Heavenly Dao Sage, after all. Even Sages of the same level wouldn't constantly smear his name.

And his disciple was incredibly audacious.

He even wanted to be expelled from time to time!

My heavens!

Sect Master Tongtian sometimes felt genuinely frustrated, but he had already made up his mind: he would not let Lin Chuan leave.

Afraid of death?

Then wait until it truly happens, and he would find a way.

Sect Master Tongtian gave himself a thumbs-up for his cleverness.

Lin Chuan already knew about the Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods without anyone telling him, which was highly abnormal.

Even if other matters hadn't been fully verified, it was better to believe it than not. Sect Master Tongtian had always been more cautious and prudent.

Even a Heavenly Dao Sage couldn't claim to be omnipotent or omniscient!
