Chapter 1326: Chapter 1330: Call Me Senior Brother

"Though they share the same cultivation base, the disparity in strength is more than just slight," Immortal YaYue spoke up, breaking the silence.

"How old is this disciple this year?" Chongyang Immortal from the north asked.

"Oh, since you’ve asked, does that mean you’ve decided on this disciple?" an old Immortal Elder commented from the side.

"I’m just asking. In the end, it depends on whom he chooses," Chongyang Immortal from the north remarked indifferently.

"Isn’t that obvious? As long as he has a sound mind, the only logical choice would be to become your disciple," said the Immortal Elder of the Four Seas.

"Actually, I am quite looking forward to it. After all, if it weren’t for Nie Ti, this young disciple would have been a piece of fine jade for us in the Southern Heavenly Palace. He wouldn’t even need carving. But when compared with Nie Ti, what will he be like?"

"Speaking of true strength, among the direct disciples, no one can compare with Nie Ti, but Nie Ti himself said that he would suppress his cultivation base to the same realm as his opponents in the yearly competition."

"Isn’t that simple? Among all disciples now, the only ones maintaining nine and ten consecutive victories are the two of them. They are bound to clash in the next round. They will contend for the top rank among Heavenly Beings. The winner will be with Chongyang Immortal from the north, and the loser with the Heavenly Zither Fairy. The rest of us old folks can pick at our leisure," Immortal YaYue stated.

"Hehehe, Old Monster YaYue, it seems you’re quite out of the loop, aren’t you?" a Witch laughed, glancing at Weaver Star. She continued, "Which of us Celestials in the Cloud Sky Heaven Court doesn’t know that Star Officer Nie Ti aspires to be the Cowherd Star in the Qixi celebration..."

"Oh, that was my presumption. It turns out to be a delightful tale then."

"Kang’s Star Officer’s future is boundless; he may well become the Heavenly God who commands the cycle of the sun and moon one day, yet he was willing to start off as an ordinary cultivator disciple from our Southern Heavenly Palace and has climbed to his current position step by step..." the Witch of the Southern Sea said.

"Gentlemen, better focus your thoughts on how to choose your disciples," Weaver Star interjected, cutting off the gossip of the Witch of the Southern Sea.

"What a pity, if Nie Ti were to become my disciple, I could still impart some knowledge to him," Chongyang Immortal from the north mused.

Upon saying this, Chongyang Immortal from the north’s attention shifted to Zhu Minglang, his heart actually quite gratified.

Accepting this disciple with the Gluttonous Dragon wouldn’t be bad either. With Chongyang Immortal from the north’s ability, it would be quite easy to train a disciple for the Moon Radiance God and he had the confidence that given time, this disciple’s accomplishments would not be much less compared to Star Officer Nie Ti.

...

Bai Jue slumped down to the ground.

He began to doubt his own life.

For some reason, Bai Jue suddenly felt that Zhu Minglang looked very familiar. Upon giving it a closer thought...

Slap!

Bai Jue slapped himself in the face. Wasn’t this the outer sect disciple who used to be a guardian on the island?!

He became so powerful in less than a year??

This competition, if he had openly admitted defeat, it would’ve still been okay, but instead, he put on a show of being toyed with while being pinned to the ground. This had Bai Jue lose face completely, and as long as anyone in the Southern Heavenly Palace talks about Bai Jue, they would surely bring up today’s incident where he was beaten to a pulp by a junior brother.

"Could it be that Bai Jue is actually just a pillow full of embroidery?"

"Most likely. His dragon’s light possesses a Divine King cultivation base, but actually its capabilities are far from sufficient, which is why he was beaten to this state."

"That Gluttonous Dragon didn’t even employ any top-tier Divine Skills either."

"Don’t speak like that. After all, a Divine King is a Divine King. Perhaps that junior brother named Zhu Lang truly possesses formidable strength."

"That’s also true. Just by watching his fight with Kang Constellation Star Official Nie Ti tomorrow, we’ll get a good idea of his abilities."

Bai Jue heard all sorts of evaluations.

But no matter how objective, he was labeled as a mere ’embroidered pillow’, a reputation directly related to the selection of the Immortal Elder’s direct disciples. He originally wanted to become a disciple under the Northern Chongyang Immortal Gate.

But how noble is the Northern Chongyang Immortal, who also cares about face. Why would he take on a disciple who became the laughing stock of the Southern Heavenly Gate?

"You... are you intentionally retaliating against me? Just for that little bit of credit on Yuhou Island!" Bai Jue still harbored resentment. He felt that the other could have defeated him cleanly and swiftly but chose this humiliating method instead!

"Be confident, I am indeed retaliating against you," Zhu Minglang replied truthfully.

This statement almost made Bai Jue explode with an aneurysm!!

In that moment, he did not know where to direct his humiliation and anger. Flames of rage rolled in his chest, but his throat was choked by something, unable to vent.

"Senior brother, have some water. I understand how you feel," Zhao Xuan offered him a cup of clear water at this moment.

Bai Jue slammed the clear jade cup to the ground, then stormed off furiously.

Zhao Xuan watched Bai Jue, with veins popping on his face, body trembling, seemingly on the verge of explosion, and for some reason, felt a sense of total relief wash over him...

It wasn’t shameful to have lost to a legendary disciple like Zhu Minglang!

Moreover, the Immortal Elders might even regard him more favorably for having exchanged blows to and fro with a legendary disciple!

Nowadays, not many people care about the process. In the end, it was Zhao Xuan and the legendary disciple Zhu Lang who fought for a long time on the first day of the Inner Gate contest, and he nearly won against one of Zhu Lang’s dragons!

...

The schedule was rather tight.

It seemed that the entire Southern Heavenly Palace was looking forward to the upcoming heavyweight match.

Originally, everyone thought that Star Officer Nie Ti of the Kang Constellation was an unbeatable existence. Even though he suppressed his cultivation base, he still seemed like an adult fighting with a child.

But the situation changed due to yesterday’s battle between the two Heavenly Beings.

Zhu Minglang’s Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon showed a mighty strength that surpassed the cultivation base of a Divine King, reminiscent of Star Officer Nie Ti bullying those Inner Gate Heavenly Being disciples.

So, ultimately, who would maintain their undefeated status and become the direct disciple was something many people began to look forward to.

The news spread on the same day. Many people started to grab spots that night, including some elders, instructors, Immortal Elders, and Immortal Respects from the Southern Heavenly Palace. If they arrived late, they might not get a seat with a good view.

The spell barriers were layered on top of each other; they even required the Moon Gods to cast the spells themselves. It was feared that the strength of Star Officer Nie Ti and Zhu Minglang was too great, and when they clashed, it might harm the innocents.

One must remember that many Mortals still resided on Bi Luo Island, and the power of a Divine King could easily obliterate a Star Continent. Without suppression and isolation, even a slight leak of energy would be a catastrophic disaster for Mortals and Ordinary Cultivators!

"I know that this little junior brother of yours is not simple," Star Officer Nie Ti of the Kang Constellation stared at Zhu Minglang, not at all surprised by the upcoming contest.

How could a disciple who has the Beast Suppressing Heavenly Punishment Ding Dragon backing him be mediocre?

Star Officer of the Kang Constellation had not troubled Zhu Minglang in these days, naturally, he was also waiting for this day.

"Call me senior brother," Zhu Minglang responded indifferently.

"..." Star Officer of the Kang Constellation had a lot more to say, but this retort left his thoughts somewhat scrambled!
