Eighth Elder wasn't exactly petty or overly cautious.
Mainly, he just couldn't stand Xu Fengqiu's arrogance.
How old was he? How strong could his medical skills be?
Although elders shouldn't generally stoop to the level of juniors,
this was something you brought on yourself.
If you had just kept it simple, he wouldn't have bothered with you.
To say your medical skills surpass everyone in the entire Haotian Sect?
That was a bit much, wasn't it?
A newborn calf isn't afraid of a tiger.
He wanted Xu Fengqiu to remember this day for the rest of his life.
It would be a lesson for him, and ultimately for his own good.
"Then, let's set some rules first."
Fang Wenjian said.
"Sect Leader, you decide. Any kind of competition is fine."
"Well, let's go with some of the previous competition rules then," Fang Wenjian said.
Eighth Elder nodded: "Yes, no problem."
Then, he looked at Xu Fengqiu and asked: "What about you?"
Xu Fengqiu: "Anything is fine with me."
"Good! I like your confidence."
Eighth Elder stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked away.
After Eighth Elder left, a powerhouse looked at Xu Fengqiu and said: "Young friend, having confidence is a good thing, but your confidence might not necessarily do you any favors in the Haotian Sect. It's fine to want to join the Haotian Sect, but why say such arrogant things?"
Xu Fengqiu said: "My intention is to join the Haotian Sect, and not just as an ordinary disciple. A small instructor, a small elder… then I must show the ability befitting an elder, mustn't I?"
"That may be so, but too much confidence is arrogance."
Xu Fengqiu didn't say anything.
"Eighth Elder's medical skills are not simple, I hope you don't disappoint us. At least let us see a relatively exciting competition."
Actually, they were all displeased with Xu Fengqiu.
But after all, they weren't Eighth Elder. This matter was ultimately closely related to Eighth Elder, and they were mostly just watching the show.
As for who they thought would win?
They basically all felt that Xu Fengqiu's medical skills were indeed not bad, but he was too confident.
Including their Haotian Sect's Sect Leader, Fang Wenjian.
He just didn't want to miss out on a talent.
But he didn't feel there was much of a chance.
An hour passed quickly.
Various elders and important members of the sect also arrived in the main hall.
Of course, they had heard about this matter.
Usually, when the sect recruited powerhouses, it was nothing. They couldn't be bothered to care.
But this time, there were just too many interesting aspects to this matter.
They were also quite curious.
Someone the age of their sect's disciples, with a not-so-high cultivation realm, actually dared to challenge the entire Haotian Sect's medical skills.
A bit interesting.
"Is that him?"
"Yes, that's him. His name is Xu Fengqiu. I don't know where he's from. His realm might be Half-Step God Emperor, but even if he's something else, a God Emperor at this age can only be said to have some potential, but he's still far from a true genius."
"Isn't he known for his medical skills?"
"That's what he claims, but no one knows what his medical skills are really like. We'll only know after the competition."
"Hahaha, Eighth Elder must be feeling unlucky. Out of nowhere, a young brat pops up, wanting to challenge the entire Haotian Sect's medical skills. I don't believe he has that ability."
"Who believes it? But you can't say he doesn't have some confidence. I just don't know what level it's at. What if he really wins?"
"Really wins? What does he want?"
"He wants to be a Haotian Sect Elder."
"If he really wins, what's wrong with the Haotian Sect giving him an Elder position? He would indeed deserve it."
"What he wants is a Haotian Sect Elder, and not just an outer sect, inner sect, or peak elder."
Several people: "…"
That's not even the same concept anymore.
There are thirteen Haotian Sect Elders in total.
They are the thirteen elders representing the Haotian Sect.
Each elder is also the master of a peak.
Being the master of a peak is awesome.
For example, the Haotian Sect is composed of thirteen peaks.
Each peak has thousands upon thousands of disciples, as well as dozens of inner sect elders, outer sect elders, instructors, and so on.
So, without considering the Elder Council, the Supreme Elders, the Haotian Sect Ancestor, and so on.
The position Xu Fengqiu wants is a Sect Elder, the master of a peak.
In the entire Haotian Sect, at least in terms of status, he would be second only to the Sect Leader and Vice Sect Leader.
He would be second only to a few special Grand Elders and Second Elders, but in some respects, his status would be on par with theirs.
They thought that a young man with a low cultivation realm, not even reaching the God Emperor realm, like their sect's disciples, might one day have the same status as them in the sect, and they felt it was outrageous!
The concept was exaggerated.
"That's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
One elder said.
"But that's what he wants right now."
"This is simply too absurd, impossible! I can't believe this kid's medical skills are stronger than the Haotian Sect's Eighth Elder."
"He must have obtained some powerful medical inheritance, but if we think about it rationally, even if he obtained the inheritance of the Medical Saint, so what? The Medical Saint's medical skills are strong, but he accepted the inheritance, and at this age, having even half of the Medical Saint's medical skills would be heaven-defying. And half of the Medical Saint's medical skills would not be enough to shake the entire Haotian Sect's physicians, right?"
"That's right, even if he obtained the inheritance of the strongest medical skills in the entire Eight Desolations, what level of understanding could he have of the inheritance at this age? In short, he obtained a powerful inheritance and arrogantly thought his medical skills were amazing. Don't worry, this kid will embarrass himself."
"Yes…"
…
Soon, Sect Leader Fang Wenjian also arrived in the main hall with some people.
Several of these people were powerful physicians from the Haotian Sect.
They had heard about this matter, so naturally, they were very unhappy.
They would definitely stand up and embarrass Xu Fengqiu.
Even to defend their own medical skills and their own dignity, they had to stand up.
What was he?
Did he really think he was amazing?
Their gazes also fell on Xu Fengqiu.
Just this young brat?
Extremely ridiculous!
Mainly, if Xu Fengqiu's realm was higher, making them feel he was not simple, it would be one thing.
His realm was so low, how strong could his medical skills be?
Such a low realm meant his talent was very ordinary.
What realm were truly powerful geniuses at this age?
So, for him, who was very ordinary, even if he obtained a medical inheritance, it was probably just so-so.
The key was that the sect actually believed it and made such a big commotion just to compete with him and see his medical skills?
"Everyone is here, right?"
Fang Wenjian glanced around.
