Everyone was stunned.
"Isn't this the First Elder's disciple, Lin Beifan? Why is he up there?"
"Don't personal disciples sit below?”
"Sect Master and Elder don't seem to have any objections. Could it be that there's special treatment?”
……
Everyone discussed animatedly and had all sorts of thoughts.
Especially the rows of personal disciples below the elder, they were so jealous that they were about to be separated from each other.
They sat down obediently, while Lin Beifan sat close to the Sect Leader and the elders. It was clear who was closer and who was distant.
"Damn it, how did this guy get up there?”Huang Jinyu said enviously.
"If you don't like him, you can throw him to the ground!”A young man nearby chuckled.
"You don't have to worry about my matters!" Huang Jinyu retracted his gaze.
This was the only thing he could do now. He wanted to prove to everyone that he was the true God's favored son and that Lin Beifan was not worthy.
There were also a few personal disciples who looked at Lin Beifan with sparkling eyes.
One of the young men whispered to a young man who looked dignified,""This Lin Beifan is too arrogant. He hasn't even been here for a year and he's already riding on our heads. He's relying on the First Elder's favor to be fearless. Senior Brother, should we teach him a lesson?”
This dignified young man's name was Hua Yuluo. He wore a white silver robe, and his thick black hair draped over his back. He looked extraordinary and handsome.
He was the true disciple of the current sect master. His strength had long reached the peak of the ninth level of the Celestial Being Realm. He had only suppressed it for the sake of the Heaven's Favorite Mystery Land, but his strength was already comparable to an ordinary Nirvana Realm expert.
Other than his extraordinary strength, he had already begun to help the sect master deal with some sect matters. He was good at dancing and was well-spoken. His prestige among the disciples was very high, and he was also praised by the various elders. There was a high chance that he would become the next Holy Son.
However, Lin Beifan suddenly appeared at this time and seemed to have gained the attention of the sect master and the elders. This made many of his senior brothers and sisters who supported him feel angry.
"Junior brother, brothers should love each other and not fight with each other. I'll take it that you didn't say that. Don't talk nonsense either. Otherwise, don't blame Senior Brother for being merciless!”Hua Yuluo berated.
" But Senior Brother…" The young man panicked.
"Don't say anything more, Junior Brother. If Master and the elders choose him, it means that he has done better than me. I should be the one reflecting. Let's not question the decision of Master and the elders!”
The young man shut his mouth and didn't say anything. He was still not angry.
Hua Yuluo stared at Lin Beifan and clenched her fists. She was not as calm as she looked.
Other than that, the representatives of the various Holy Lands and the Undying Sects all looked over at Lin Beifan thoughtfully.
One of them was a young master with a gentle face and a delicate figure. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and held a fan in his hand. He looked at Lin Beifan with a burning gaze and asked an old man beside him in a low voice,"Who is the young man behind Li Qingshan?”
His voice was a little hoarse, as if he was deliberately suppressing it.
"Young Master, that person is Li Qingshan's new disciple, Lin Beifan. I heard that he is quite talented. However, it had not been revealed so far, and there was very little information about it.”The old man whispered.
The young master nodded and did not say anything else.
He had a feeling that Lin Beifan would greatly affect his future plans.
At this moment, Lin Beifan, who was standing on the high platform, smiled bitterly in his heart. After hiding for so many years, he had finally broken through. He was going to be used as a target by others.
He didn't know if his master did it on purpose, but his conscience was very bad.
However, Lin Beifan was not afraid of him.
He just hated trouble and wanted to live a peaceful life. He didn't want to cause so much trouble. However, if trouble came knocking on his door, he would not hesitate to pick up his butcher knife and cut it down.
Looking at the representatives of the various sects in the distance, Lin Beifan's heart skipped a beat."Could there be a protagonist among these people?”
Lin Beifan didn't hold much hope at first. After all, there were too few people who could be called main characters. He had only found two after searching for so long. In the end, he used the system to scan through them.
"Ding! I found a main character!"
………………
The sect leader, Yu Hua Pavilion, stood up again and said with a smile,"Now, all the personal disciples and inner disciples who are participating in the competition, please come forward and draw lots to arrange the number of matches. After the drawing of lots, the competition began.”
Instantly, nearly a hundred youths jumped into the arena.
"Master, I'm going!" Lin Beifan said to the Great Elder before following him into the arena.
Bai Qinglian jogged over and said excitedly like a little fangirl,"Senior Brother, you can do it! Good luck!"
Lin Beifan smiled helplessly.”
"Maybe Senior Brother can draw a good lot?" Bai Qinglian was unconvinced.”
The referee gathered everyone over and said," There are 99 participants in this competition. The person who draws number 1 will compete with the person who draws number 99. The person who draws number 2 will compete with the person who draws number 98, and so on. As the number of participants was odd, one person would be absent. The person who drew number 50 would be a bye and would directly participate in the next round of the competition. As for who gets a bye, it will depend on your luck.”
Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood.
Hence, they started drawing lots. They drew lots in public and revealed the results in public. There was no shady business.
Lin Beifan was at the end of the line. He didn't fight for it and was very Buddhist.
In the end, when everyone had drawn their lots, there was only one lot left.
"Lin Beifan, number 50! A bye!"
