C1409 Arrogant
Qi Guangyuan expressionlessly glanced at Elder Yan, but he did not have the intention to speak. On the other hand, the Orthodox Unity Hall elders could not sit still.
The old man who had spoken just now was the first to make a move. He sneered and said, "Yan Lie, according to your intentions, we, Orthodox Unity Hall Lord, do not have the qualifications to sit in this hall master. Could it be that you are qualified to sit there?"
"That's right."
"Don't tell me that you, as an elder of the Disciplinary Hall, want to become the head of a research institute?"
"Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous."
… ….
The people from the Orthodox Unity Hall did not know whether to laugh or cry, as they believed that what Elder Yan said was nonsense.
"Naturally, I am not qualified to sit in this position of Palace Head."
"But I feel that there is one person who is more qualified than anyone else."
As he said that, Elder Yan's gaze swept across the crowd and finally landed on Lu Chen. He used his loud and clear voice and said, "I recommend that Lu Chen become the head of the Research Palace."
"Hua!"
Everyone in the hall was in an uproar. Could it be that Elder Yan had gone mad and actually recommended a junior disciple? Even though Lu Chen's talent was outstanding, he was still a Life And Death Stage warrior after all.
"Elder Yan, are you joking?" The white bearded Orthodox Unity Hall Elder sneered, and snorted: "He's just a mere junior, even if his cultivation is outstanding, in the end, he's not an indestructible existence. What qualifications does he have to become the Palace Head?"
"Why aren't you qualified?" Elder Yan asked: "Including the two Palace Masters, did we have the strength of Lu Chen at the Life And Death Stage level back then?"
"To be able to behead an almighty being with a late stage Life And Death Stage and participate in the battle of an indestructible expert with just a cultivation of Perfection Of Life And Death Stage, let alone the current two hall masters, even if you look at the entire academy for hundreds or even thousands of years, who has performed so much?"
"He's only been in the academy for a little more than ten years, but with such accomplishments, he might not even need five years in the future. If he were to step into the Eternal Domain, who in the entire academy would be his match?"
"Hall Master Qi, do you dare to guarantee that you'll be a match for Lu Chen when the time comes?" After saying that, Elder Yan looked straight at Qi Guangyuan and asked in a deep voice.
His actions had undoubtedly pushed Lu Chen into the limelight, but what he said was very reasonable. Whether it was the disciples of the two halls or the elders, none of them could deny that Lu Chen's performance was too heaven-defying in battle.
If he took the last step, no one knew what kind of height he would reach. The most terrifying thing was that Lu Chen was extremely young, and no one knew what kind of height he would reach in ten years, or even five years, later.
If nothing unexpected happened, in the future, he would definitely become a supreme existence whose strength suppressed all the other experts. Just the potential that he had displayed was enough to make everyone feel fear, even the astonishing and peerless Kungwu Hall master from before couldn't be compared to him.
Everyone in the hall was speechless. Even the Orthodox Unity Hall Elder who wanted to retort Elder Yan did not know what to say. The other people even looked at Lu Chen's figure with eyes that flashed.
"That's right."
"If you really want to nominate the Palace Head, then I feel that Lu Chen might be more suitable than Orthodox Unity Hall Lord."
Taiyi Hall Lord and Wang Zhangkong immediately understood Elder Yan's intentions and spoke in support.
"I think what Elder Yan said is very reasonable."
"In comparison, Lu Chen's potential is limitless, so he is naturally the most suitable candidate to be the Palace Head."
"Even though he isn't an immortal powerhouse, he has some strength that can resist the indestructible. If he were to make a breakthrough in the future, not to mention the academy, perhaps no one would be able to defeat him in the entire wastelands."
"That's right, that's right."
"We also support Lu Chen becoming the head of the Education Palace."
… ….
As the Taiyi Hall Elders voiced their approval, Lu Chen, who was originally standing in the corner, became the most noticeable existence in the hall.
"Lu Chen."
Su Yuvrann stood in the crowd and looked at the tall figure. For a moment, her expression was complicated. The current situation was very sensitive. Although he did not know why Elder Yan had pushed Lu Chen out, he could feel that something extraordinary was going to happen. He was more or less worried about Lu Chen.
After all, he had fought with Lu Chen before and they had quite a good friendship.
However, if one were to look carefully, one would discover a trace of dense killing intent deep within the depths of his eyes. Although it was well hidden, the coldness that seemed to be coming out of nowhere was still detected by Lu Chen at the first moment.
Although he was a little surprised, since he was pushed to the heart of the struggle, Lu Chen naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
Under the gazes of everyone present, he slowly walked forward. Even though he had only taken two steps forward, the feeling he gave others was as if he had walked right in front of everyone.
It was as if at this moment, he was no longer a disciple of Kung Wu Tao Hall, but a supreme existence that others could only look up to.
Lu Chen first scanned everyone in the hall, and then the corner of his mouth slightly raised. He spoke with a clear voice, "I personally think what Elder Yan said is very reasonable."
"Honestly speaking, in terms of talent, you all have the qualifications to stand shoulder to shoulder with me? In terms of merit, the academy wouldn't have won this war without me. "
At this point, Lu Chen paused for a moment, then continued with a smile, "That's why I feel that there are not many people other than me who can sit in this position of Palace Head."
Lu Chen's words were very straightforward, he just almost pointed at the Orthodox Unity Hall people and loudly said: "You are all trash, what qualifications do you have to compete with me!"
"Arrogant! How arrogant!"
The man who had proposed to merge Tao Hall once again stood up. He was the Orthodox Unity Hall elder named Han Xuan.
"I admit that your talent is indeed not bad, but in the end, you are still an indestructible existence. What qualifications do you have to be compared with our hall master?"
This wasn't just Han Xuan's point of view, but also the view of everyone in the Orthodox Unity Hall. Lu Chen's potential was indeed limitless, but right now, it was not impossible for him to stand shoulder to shoulder with Orthodox Unity Hall Lord and Qi Guangyuan, let alone becoming the Palace Master!
"Oh? Can I ask if Orthodox Unity Hall Lord, other than being at a higher realm than me, is comparable to me at all? Is it talent, comprehension ability, or face? "
Lu Chen smiled and asked bluntly.
"How dare you!"
Han Xuan's face flushed red. Lu Chen was not only looking down on Orthodox Unity Hall Lord, he was also looking down on the entire Orthodox Unity Hall.
"Presumptuous?"
Lu Chen shook his head, glanced at the expressionless Orthodox Unity Hall Lord, and said indifferently: "If you don't accept this, under the premise that your Orthodox Unity Hall is on the same level as mine, I will accept your challenge."
"If you can defeat me, then I will naturally not meddle in the position of the Palace Head. If no one is a match for me, then don't force yourself on me."
Hearing that, everyone in Orthodox Unity Hall looked at each other, but not many people dared to say anything.
