Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes - Chapter 429 - 425: The Junior Can Join Star Tower Immediately
Chapter 429: Chapter 425: The Junior Can Join Star Tower Immediately
The Manor Master of Snow Manor, who was previously boasting with pride, now had a stiff expression.
The words he had spoken so casually now made him feel a bit embarrassed.
What “Outer Sect disciples are hidden dragons and crouching tigers” was merely meant to mock Cangxuan Valley.
Wasn’t it just sarcasm, not to actually hide a dragon or crouching tiger?
But all the Sect Leaders aren’t blind, how could they not see Shen Han’s strength?
The Sect Leaders exchanged a few glances and then turned to look at Cangxuan Valley’s Valley Master, Yue Bugong.
They thought this was a trick Yue Bugong had intentionally set up.
Hiding a genius disciple within the Outer Sect to deliberately embarrass Snow Manor.
To be honest, this trick felt quite satisfying.
Previously, the Manor Master of Snow Manor was so full of himself, showing off excessively.
Now, he was probably blushing.
Under the watchful eyes of others, even the face of Cangxuan Valley’s Valley Master, Yue Bugong, couldn’t help but twitch.
His disciple performed so well, he should be delighted and proud.
Yet before the competition, he had harshly rebuked Shen Han.
Even expelling him, driving him out of the sect…
Thinking of this, Yue Bugong took a slight breath and turned to look at Mansion Master Xu Yuan of Feixia Mansion beside him.
“Is this the disciple you said no one wanted to bring into the Inner Sect?
No one wants such a talented young disciple?
Are you blind?!”
Though Yue Bugong spoke in a low voice, his anger was apparent.
The criticized Xu Yuan kept silent, blankly staring at the arena.
Not only him, even Mansion Master Xie of Chuixue Mansion was the same.
At this moment, they all stood, dumbfounded, watching the arena.
Actually, when Shen Han fought Guan Yutang earlier, Mansion Master Xie had a slight intention of bringing Shen Han into the Inner Sect of Chuixue Mansion.
But considering that Shen Han still lacked a Divine Soul and was rejected by Feixia Mansion, only to end up at Chuixue Mansion.
Thinking of these things, he ultimately gave up.
However, the current scene thoroughly changed the hearts of these Mansion Masters.
Shen Han, even without using a Divine Soul, could engage Qin Tianlang and even gain the upper hand.
This scene not only shocked the leaders of Cangxuan Valley but also profoundly impacted the Inner and Outer Sect disciples.
Especially for the Outer Sect disciples of Cangxuan Valley, this revelation brought a shift in their thoughts.
How could such a talented individual be disregarded by every Mansion Master of Cangxuan Valley and not even reach the Inner Sect?
In reality, Shen Han’s strength could suppress outstanding disciples like Qin Tianlang, leaving them breathless.
And Qin Tianlang recently defeated Ying Jiu.
And quite easily.
This clearly indicated that Shen Han’s strength surpassed Ying Jiu without question.
This thought fermented within the minds of countless Outer Sect disciples.
It seemed to suggest that Cangxuan Valley’s Mansion Masters had no vision, unable to recognize talented disciples.
Especially some Outer Sect disciples with strength but who hadn’t been able to enter the Inner Sect for years.
They suddenly realized, perhaps it wasn’t they who were lacking, but the Mansion Masters were blind, unable to see talent.
In the arena, Shen Han and Qin Tianlang’s duel had reached its final stage.
Unlike his usual composed and casual demeanor when facing other opponents,
Qin Tianlang now had a serious expression, even his breathing became a bit rapid.
He looked up at Shen Han.
Qin Tianlang doubted whether the person before him was truly an Outer Sect disciple of Cangxuan Valley.
Clearly, he was much stronger than many Inner Sect disciples.
Moreover, he felt that Shen Han still had energy to spare…
Even after a quarter of an hour of combat, even giving his all, Qin Tianlang was still suppressed.
For a moment, Qin Tianlang took a deep breath.
He didn’t want to lose at this final step of today’s duel.
No matter whether Shen Han was an Outer Sect disciple or not, he didn’t want to lose.
He threw the iron umbrella into the sky, and in the next moment, the umbrella’s ribs all fell off, leaving only the handle, like a sharp blade.
Seeing this, the Manor Master of Snow Manor immediately stood up.
“Tianlang, that’s enough.
If you’re pushed this far, you already count as having lost.”
Hearing this, Qin Tianlang was slightly stunned, then nodded after a while.
Yes, to be pushed to this extent already meant losing.
Thinking of this, Qin Tianlang no longer continued to fight.
He cupped his hands towards Shen Han in respect: “I lost.”
He said these three words with calm and even a hint of relief.
Perhaps Qin Tianlang indeed came here, as the Manor Master of Snow Manor said, to receive a lesson.
And upon hearing Qin Tianlang admit defeat, the crowd remained eerily silent.
The expressions on their faces were full of astonishment.
Qin Tianlang lost, to an Outer Sect disciple of Cangxuan Valley.
But anyone could see that this Outer Sect disciple, Shen Han, did not exhibit the typical strength of an Outer Sect disciple.
With the outcome decided, people felt that Shen Han’s victory even seemed a bit easy.
After the contest ended, it was time for the Sect Leaders to provide their evaluations.
Seeing no one else speak, the Manor Master of Snow Manor began.
“For this duel, Tianlang, my evaluation for you is straightforward.
There is always a sky beyond the sky, a mountain beyond the mountain. Your arrogance and disregard for others led to your defeat today.”
Upon hearing his own Manor Master’s words, Qin Tianlang nodded, honestly feeling he had gained some insight that day.
“As for this young man from Cangxuan Valley, his future is boundless, promising.
To push Tianlang to such an extent, this child is remarkable, truly remarkable.
Cangxuan Valley is truly fortunate to have found such a piece of jade.”
The Manor Master’s words primarily aimed at enlightening his own disciple.
For Shen Han, his words were broadly complimentary.
After one person commented, the Sect Leaders of Yunchi City and Wisteria Manor rose one by one to give their evaluations as well.
In their words, it was nothing but praise.
Compared to previous praise, the commendation for Shen Han and Qin Tianlang was somewhat justified and not exaggerated.
The admiration for Snow Manor and Cangxuan Valley was impossible to hide in their words.
Once several Sect Leaders finished their remarks, it was Star Tower’s turn.
Sect Leader Wang took the lead and looked at Shen Han: “Young man, are you really an Outer Sect disciple of Cangxuan Valley?”
Upon hearing this, Shen Han nodded: “As the senior saw, indeed I was an Outer Sect disciple of Cangxuan Valley, having joined for less than three months.”
Hearing this, Sect Leader Wang smiled wryly.
“How fortunate Cangxuan Valley is. If I had a seedling like this, even if I had to offer a Core Disciple’s benefits, it would be worth it…
It’s a lack of luck, indeed a lack of luck…”
Sect Leader Wang’s words were full of regret.
But as he finished, Shen Han immediately spoke.
“If Star Tower is willing to take me in, I can join Star Tower right away.
As you have seen, the Valley Master of Cangxuan Valley already expelled me from the sect.
Currently, I’m not part of any sect, joining Star Tower should not be an issue.”
Shen Han’s sudden words took everyone present by surprise.
Having just defeated Qin Tianlang, they initially thought Shen Han was here to bring glory to Cangxuan Valley, but now it seemed he was here to embarrass them!
