Chapter 30: What Qualifications Does It Have? (3 Updates)
The woman in white was stunningly beautiful, sweet yet alluring, with a slender and proud figure that exuded the charm of a mature woman, attracting the attention of many.
"Shangguan Hanlu, the president of the Tianzhu City branch of the Fenghua Chamber of Commerce, has also come. This is truly a rare occurrence."
On the platform, a strange glint flashed in the eyes of the powerful figures.
The Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce wields influence throughout the Qin Empire and holds a transcendent position. As a commercial force, it rarely interferes in matters of the martial arts world.
Shangguan Hanlu's appearance this time is indeed quite surprising.
"I've come to see with my own eyes the unparalleled genius of your Yunwu Sect, a talent that appears only once every few centuries," Shangguan Hanlu said with a sweet smile.
"Of course I won't disappoint Chairman Shangguan. Please take a seat."
Luo Chen relaxed his white eyebrows and looked into the distance. He also greatly admired Yuan Lingshu's martial arts talent. Since she came to participate in the inner sect assessment of Yunwu Sect, she naturally intended to join Yunwu Sect.
Those two guys, Qing Ru Huo and Bei Tian Min, are probably going to be disappointed if they try to snatch someone away.
"Old Lin, I heard you went into the mountains with that little fellow Zhang Yun, but why haven't I seen him?"
As soon as she sat down, Shangguan Hanlu's beautiful eyes swept around, then she raised her eyebrows and looked at Elder Lin beside her.
"That little guy will be here soon."
Old Lin laughed loudly, causing Luo Chen to narrow his eyes slightly.
Zhang Yun?
Judging from the tone of Lin Dong and Shangguan Hanlu's voices, they seemed to think highly of a young man named Zhang Yun.
However, it seems there is no such person in the Yunwu Sect?
A strange look immediately appeared in Luo Chen's eyes.
"Elder Lin, are you referring to Zhang Yun, the outer disciple of our Yunwu Sect, who has some connection with that girl Ye Qianzhi?"
With a hint of uncertainty, Luo Chen asked.
"I don't know who Ye Qianzhi is, but I do know that Zhang Yun is an outer disciple of your Yunwu Sect."
"It's truly enviable that Yunwu Sect has such a talented young man."
Lin Dong stroked his white beard slowly, smiling broadly, making no attempt to hide his admiration for Zhang Yun, which caused the eyes of the powerful figures around him to flash.
Judging from Old Lin's tone, it seemed that he and Shangguan Hanlu had come for the same person, and during their conversation, they did not mention Yuan Lingshu, who was supposed to be the most prominent person.
If someone else had said such a thing, naturally no one would have paid much attention.
However, one of them is the pillar of the Lin family, and the other is the president of the Feng Hua Chamber of Commerce, so they naturally carry weight.
However, no matter how talented Zhang Yun is, can he compare to Yuan Lingshu's martial arts talent?
They came only for Yuan Lingshu, as long as Old Lin doesn't try to take her away from them.
"You flatter me, Elder Lin." Luo Chen's gaze became increasingly strange.
Zhang Yun?
Isn't that Zhang Yun, who has never even set foot in the martial arts world?
Even if he successfully entered the martial arts path some time ago, it's impossible for his cultivation level to reach the fifth level of body refinement in such a short period of time, right?
"That's for sure. It seems that Yuan Lingshu has gained a strong competitor in this inner sect assessment."
Shangguan Hanlu chuckled as well, equally confident in Zhang Yun.
"Although Yuan Lingshu has good martial arts talent, she is far from being Zhang Yun's match."
Old Lin's eyebrows relaxed, and he slowly said that if he hadn't witnessed Zhang Yun's powerful breakthrough and kill a Pulse Wheel Realm cultivator today, he would still think that Yuan Lingshu was qualified to fight Zhang Yun.
However, reality is cruel; Yuan Lingshu has no chance of defeating Zhang Yun.
The surrounding powerful figures were filled with astonishment.
Zhang Yun received high praise from Elder Lin, while Yuan Lingshu, whom they had the highest hopes for, was only considered "good" by Elder Lin.
They were quite curious to see just how talented Zhang Yun really was.
"Elder Lin, the young man you favor may have great talent, but Yuan Lingshu's talent is comparable to the top geniuses of my Yunwu Sect, and he is not much weaker."
Luo Chen refuted this tactfully.
"Oh?" Lin Dong raised an eyebrow, looking intrigued. "Luo Chen, how about we make a bet? Let's bet on who will be number one in the Yunwu Sect's inner sect assessment this time."
Lin Dong's words startled Luo Chen slightly.
Lin Dong, that old fox, seems to have great faith in Zhang Yun.
But as he said, Yuan Lingshu's talent was truly dazzling. Apart from the few prodigies of Yunwu Sect, no one within a thousand miles could compare to her.
"Alright, I promise you. If you lose, would you be willing to let Lin Ruoxue become a disciple of the Yunwu Sect?"
After a moment's thought, Luo Chen nodded in agreement.
He had observed Lin Ruoxue carefully. As the young lady of the Lin family, her talent was in no way inferior to Yuan Lingshu's. If she were to become a disciple, it would greatly benefit the Yunwu Sect.
"Alright, if you lose, you'll have to grant me one request," Donglin said with a slight smile, as if he were a shrewd old man.
