Chapter 23 The First Person of This GenerationWhen everyone around heard this, their eyes were all focused on Su Chen.
This is indeed a bit too much.
That was Liu Xingwan, the prodigy of the Yunyang Sect, Liu Xingwan.
It is indeed unreasonable for an ordinary disciple to gain more contribution from his actions than the sect's geniuses.
And, that was Liu Xingwan.
“If you really have the ability to obtain so many contributions, you would have already held an important position in my Yunyang Sect.
If such a person leaves, there will probably be a huge loophole in the defense line of our Yunyang Sect.
But today, does it matter to my Yunyang Sect whether you are here or not?"
Xia Kun looked at Su Chen coldly, as if he was indignant at Su Chen's lies.
Every argument supports what he said.
"What Hall Master Xia said is still speculation, not direct evidence.
It seems that my contribution to the demon-slaying operation must be lower than that of Senior Sister Liu.
But why can't my contribution be higher than Senior Sister Liu's?"
Su Chen's reply made Xia Kun laugh out of anger.
"A silver tongue and a strong sense of sophistry.
If there is a chance, I really want to let Xing Wan compete with you to see if you can beat her and slap you in the face with the facts!"
As he spoke, Xia Kun seemed to be showing a hint of anger.
If it weren't in front of others, he would even want to swear.
But Su Chen was still as calm and indifferent as before.
After hearing what Xia Kun said, he bowed to him instead.
“Please take care of me, Hall Master Xia. If there is a chance to try again, I am willing to compete with you.
This will prove my innocence and clear my name."
These words actually choked Xia Kun.
In his opinion, Su Chen knew very well that such a thing was impossible.
A genius like Liu Xingwan would never have the time to fool around with Su Chen.
When the others present saw this, they had the same idea as Xia Kun.
Su Chen was making excuses and refused to admit that he was greedy for credit.
As he was speaking, a disciple dressed in tight clothes walked up to the crowd with a frown and a hint of disgust.
"Fairy Liu is busy with her cultivation, so don't bother her.
I, Gu Feng, have been practicing for several years, and although I have made some progress, I am still slightly inferior to Fairy Liu.
You claim to be quite powerful, and your ability to slay demons is even stronger than Fairy Liu, so just defeat me first.
Whether you beat me in combat or make greater contributions than me in the demon-slaying operation, I will recognize you.
And I will personally help you travel to various cities in the Great Zhou to clear your name of being greedy for merit.
Don't try to get close to others until you have defeated me."
Gu Feng looked at Su Chen, and there was a hint of disgust in his cold eyes.
Standing in a high position, Master Shangxuan calmly watched the farce in front of him and restrained himself.
But one could still see a slight wrinkle between his brows.
What a good initiation ceremony turned out to be like this.
After hesitating, Elder Shangxuan waved his hand, signaling Su Chen and Wu Yi to retreat.
We’ll talk about how to deal with Su Chen later.
If we continue to make a scene like this in public, it will only make Tiangang City a laughing stock for others.
The initiation ceremony continues.
After the recommendation, the sect tokens and sect uniforms of Tiangang City began to be distributed.
When distributing them, the disciple hesitated for a moment, but still handed the two items to Su Chen.
Then the ceremony ended hastily, and the elders and guests left one after another.
When leaving, many people turned their heads to look at Su Chen.
The disciple who was driven away from the Yunyang Sect is also accused of being greedy for merit. Will Tiangang City accept him?
After the ceremony, a group of people gathered in Lin Tian’s courtyard.
Lin Tian was still injured, so he did not go to watch the initiation ceremony.
Upon hearing that Su Chen was insulted at the ceremony, Lin Tian was so angry that he stood up and started cursing the Yunyang Sect.
In Lin Tian's case, he completely believed in Su Chen. He saw Su Chen's courage in the dense forest that day.
He also saw Su Chen's strength.
If he was really as terrible as Yunyang Sect said, how could Su Chen risk his life to save him?
In the small courtyard, servants brought in plates of dishes.
Everyone gathered together and talked.
"Tell me the truth, Junior Brother Su."
Wu Yi looked at Su Chen with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face.
"Your contribution in the late summer cleanup was greater than Liu Xingwan's, which is indeed suspicious.
After all, that was Liu Xingwan. We were in Tiangang City and knew her strength well.
Among her peers, except for the top few people in each sect, it should be difficult for them to fight against her, let alone surpass her."
Under the sword at night, there is nothing but frost and coldness.
These eight words refer to Liu Xingwan.
It is said that as long as she draws her sword, frost will instantly form within a few feet around her.
If you get a little closer, you will feel a chill.
Beside him, Yao Xiaoyu also nodded.
“Although I’ve seen you take action before, Junior Brother Su, and you showed some fearlessness.
But your contribution value in the demon-slaying operation is higher than Liu Xingwan.
We can't help but doubt you, let alone others."
Huang Shanyun and others didn't say anything, but when they looked at Su Chen, they nodded.
Everyone has the same idea.
Even Lin Tian, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion: "Junior Brother Su, your contribution has overwhelmed Liu Xingwan?"
Seeing them like this, Su Chen showed a helpless smile.
"You all reacted like this. In the eyes of others, I am the one who is greedy for credit."
Senior Brother Wu Yi and the others don't have too many prejudices against me.
Even after getting along with myself, I felt some recognition.
If they still have doubts, then others will be even more so, and they will probably add many more problems to themselves in their hearts.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Wu Yi's face became even more serious.
"It seems that it will be even more difficult for you, Junior Brother Su, to remove the stain on your head.
A more reliable approach is to surpass Liu Xingwan in hard power.
Compete in front of others and win her.
From now on, no one will ever question you or accuse you of being greedy for credit.
It’s just that difficult.”
Su Chen picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip with a smile.
"But, there is no way I can beat Liu Xingwan..."
“In fact, even if ten of you were together, it would be impossible for you to defeat Liu Xingwan.
As time goes by, the gap will get bigger and bigger.”
Huang Shanyun on the side seemed to want Su Chen to face the facts, and his words were very direct.
Compared with their pessimism, Su Chen did not look down on himself.
With several destinies and mysterious abilities, he already has many advantages.
If you still underestimate yourself and belittle yourself, then you are completely hopeless.
However, in front of others, Su Chen remains humble.
"Today, another senior brother came forward and said that if I beat him, he would help me clear the name of being greedy for credit.
So it seems I have another way.”
Hearing Su Chen's words, the people around him seemed to be amused by Su Chen.
"Junior Brother Su, the one who is talking to you today is our third senior brother Gu Feng.
The third senior brother’s strength is indeed a step behind Liu Xing, but he is only a step behind Liu Xing.
He is the number one person of this generation in Tiangang City."
Wu Yi didn't want to hit Su Chen, but after thinking about it, he couldn't tell Su Chen that Gu Feng's strength was average.
