When the elders and Mu Bao Bao saw that it was Lin Fan who spoke, they all held back their feelings and words.
The way that they felt about Lin Fan was more like reverence after seeing all the things that he had accomplished. So even if Lin Fan had a lower level of cultivation than them, they treated him as someone on the same level.
No, there was even a hint of respect in their voices when they talked to Lin Fan.
Since Lin Fan was speaking up, they felt assured in leaving this to Lin Fan.
When Yong He saw that it was Lin Fan who spoke, there was a clear look of displeasure that flashed in his eyes.
When the sect master had introduced everyone, she had also introduced Lin Fan as her one and only disciple.
In Yong He's eyes, Lin Fan was his enemy since he had the position that he wanted. So he knew that eventually, he would have to take care of Lin Fan to get everything that he wanted.
Of course, he also held himself in a high position, so when it was Lin Fan that spoke, he felt like he had been disrespected.
He was raising an objection to the sect master and this disciple of the sect master had been the one to speak. How could this be considered anything but a clear attempt to shame him?
But Yong He knew where he was and he knew what he could and couldn't do.
That hint of displeasure only lasted a single second before he cleared his throat and said, "I feel that it isn't right that I haven't received a master yet. I feel that as the most talented member of this generation, I should receive a master that suits me, don't you think so, senior brother Lin?"
The way he spoke, it was as if he had already put himself on the same level as Lin Fan.
Once again, the displeased look in the eyes of the sect elder and Mu Bao Bao grew stronger.
It was clear that this Yong He didn't put anyone in his eyes and had arrogance that reached the sky. He was someone that clearly was going to cause trouble because of his ambition.
The idea of taking care of him before he became a problem grew stronger and stronger in their minds.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut Lin Fan just calmly asked, "Why do you think that you're the most talented member of this generation?"
Yong He revealed a confused look at first before suddenly knitting his brows and saying, "I was the only one that was able to light up all three segments in the talent test. If that doesn't make me the most talented member, what would?"
As he said this, the other disciples all revealed displeased looks.
If he didn't say anything, they might not mind since they knew that this was a fact. However, when he did say it, it was almost as if he was looking down on them and as proud young people, how could they accept this?
So with just a few words, Yong He had drawn the hatred of everyone in this room.
But he didn't care since he knew that if he didn't say this, he wouldn't be able to accept it.
But to his surprise, Lin Fan didn't panic at all. In fact, Lin Fan's expression didn't even change as he said, "And? Does that make you special?"
Yong He's face twisted with rage for an instant as he heard the way Lin Fan talked to him. But then he said in a deep voice, "If that doesn't make me special, what would?"
Lin Fan revealed a smile and said, "You're saying that you're special just because you lit up three segments? Do you even know what those segments were testing for?"
Yong He couldn't help trembling when he heard this.
He indeed didn't know what the segments were testing for, but he had felt superior to everyone else because he had lit up more segments than anyone else.
But when Lin Fan pointed this out, he couldn't help being stunned and unable to answer. He even felt a chill run down his spine as if something bad was about to happen.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lin Fan just casually said, "As expected. You gained false arrogance just because you thought that you were better because you lit up more segments. You don't have any idea what each of those segments mean."
Yong He's face turned red with anger from his shame.
However, it was too late for him to back down, so Yong He roared out, "Then why don't you tell me what each of those segments means then! I want to see why you think I'm not qualified!"
Lin Fan brought out one of the tokens that was used for the testing and pointed at each of the segments as he said, "These segments are to test for spirit root, comprehension, and physique respectively. As long as one of these aspects of you reaches the required level set, then it will light up."
Yong He revealed a proud look as he said, "Then doesn't it mean that I'm outstanding since I was able to meet the standard for all three?"
Lin Fan shook his head before saying with a sigh, "While it is rare for someone to satisfy the requirements for all three, that still doesn't mean that they are special. After all, all three parts that you've lit up were only slightly above average. While it does mean you'll have an easier time cultivating compared to others, that doesn't mean that you'll be an outstanding cultivator."
Yong He's face twisted when he heard this, but then he shouted, "So you're saying that these pieces of trash that only lit up two segments are better than me?"
Lin Fan shook his head again before saying, "It doesn't just test to see if you pass the threshold, it also detects specialties with your spirit root, comprehension, and physique. I never said that the ones chosen as disciples only had above average results, did I?"
Yong He's face twisted once again, but this time it was out of awkwardness and not rage.
As Lin Fan slowly explained, he understood what Lin Fan was implying…
While he might have lit up three segments, all of his talents were only just above the threshold, making him overall above average.
However, the others clearly had special spirit roots, comprehension, and physiques which was why they had been chosen over him.
Yong He's mind collapsed at this moment and he went all out as he shouted, "I don't believe you! I don't believe you! I don't believe that these two segment pieces of trash can surpass someone like me!"
Lin Fan shook his head once more as he really felt helpless about this situation. This kid was clearly not going to learn from his mistakes and he was digging himself further and further into a hole.
But since that was the case, there was no need for Lin Fan to show him any mercy.
After all, he didn't forget how this kid had looked at Mu Bao Bao earlier…
Lin Fan waved his hand at the chubby little boy that senior brother Ying had accepted as a disciple, calling him over.
The chubby little boy looked up at senior brother Ying who gave him a nod before walking over to Lin Fan.
"Disciple Yong, since you claim that you are better than disciple Xiao, then I'll give you a chance to prove it. Touch this token again and show how much better you are than him. If you can prove it, then we'll give you the chance to pick whoever you want as a master." Lin Fan said in a calm voice.
Yong He's eyes lit up when he heard this and he quickly came forward to touch the token.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen his hand made contact, all three segments of the token lit up again.
Lin Fan lifted this token up so everyone could see it before giving a nod before turning the token to Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian turned back to look at senior brother Ying and seeing him give him a nod, Xiao Tian placed his hand on the token.
Like before, only two segments lit up. These were the segments representing his spirit root and his comprehension.
When Xiao Tian was about to pull his hand back, Lin Fan suddenly grabbed his hand and kept it on the token as he also lifted it up for everyone to see.
When everyone looked closely at the token, they found that there was indeed something different about the segments compared to when Yong He had touched it.
The result that Yong He had received was just the segments lighting up without anything special appearing. However, when Xiao Tian touched the token and the segments lit up, there was something that appeared in the middle of the segments.
In these two segments, there was the outline of a sword that had appeared.
Once everyone had a good look, Lin Fan let go of Xiao Tian's hand and explained, "The sword outline that you saw was a representation of a special sword spirit root and a special comprehension towards swords. This means that disciple Xiao has an affinity for sword cultivation and will excel when cultivating with the sword compared to his fellow disciples. Elder Ying has an affinity to cultivating sword techniques as well, so that was why he chose disciple Xiao as his disciple."
Yong He couldn't deny it when it was put so clearly, but he was just that unwilling to accept it since he had already formed that sense of superiority.
It was like having something in the palm of your hands just to have it being taken away by someone else at the last second.
How could he accept this?
So he was about to keep arguing, but Lin Fan raised a hand that silenced all the chatter that filled the room.
Everyone looked at Lin Fan, waiting for him to speak.
Lin Fan cleared his throat and said, "In light of recent events, we have decided that it would be best if disciple Yong were to not continue with our sect. It is clear that he has his eyes set on greener pastures, so he will hereby be expelled from our Love Sect."
The moment that he said this, everyone's jaws dropped.
Even if he had said it very lightly and calmly, the content of the words were filled with very serious implications.
He had just calmly said that Yong He would be expelled from the Love Sect.
And based on the reactions of the sect master and the elders, it seemed that no one was against this idea.
