Chapter 406: Chapter 406: Senior Sister, Stop Being Willful
"Incredible, he actually has Superior Aptitude, and his overall score has reached ninety-one points. Who is this guy to possess such talent?"
"You don’t know him? Not too long ago, this guy had a big fight with Lin Chen, one of the four great demons, and it ended in a draw."
The crowd surrounding Du Feiyu erupted into continuous discussion as they looked at the words floating above his head. Some were surprised because Du Feiyu was so young. With such natural talent, he was likely to perform well in the upcoming trials. Unless he performed poorly, he was sure to be chosen by the Formation Sect, and thus one could say that Du Feiyu was already a predetermined disciple of the Formation Sect.
Upon this realization, everyone secretly decided in their hearts that they must not provoke this person.
However, while the crowd discussed Du Feiyu in praise and envy, Du Feiyu’s expression was not good at all.
His gaze fell on Lin Chen, who was far away. Having crossed hands with Lin Chen, he knew full well how terrifying Lin Chen was, and moreover, Lin Chen’s cultivation level was even lower than his.
If compared to Lin Chen, his talent would undoubtedly be considered lower.
Meanwhile, Hong Lan slowly placed her hand on the stele. It wasn’t long before the stele lit up with a glow, revealing that Hong Lan had only Medium Grade aptitude and scored just eighty points.
To this, Hong Lan’s eyes were lifeless as she muttered indifferently, "So it’s as expected."
For this trip, she had indeed held no hope at all.
All of this was because she had encountered Lin Chen, which had dealt a blow to her confidence.
It was no use. Not just for her, even a Heavenly Pride like Du Feiyu was inwardly shaken upon encountering Lin Chen. Lin Chen’s power was simply too defying and monstrous. How could ordinary martial artists compare to him?
The issue of talent had always been a sore point for Qi Xiuwu. Now, seeing Du Feiyu’s talent surpass his own, he couldn’t help but feel disgruntled.
At this moment, Qin Kaifeng also approached the testing stele. He placed his hand upon it, and the words that appeared above his head shocked everyone.
"Qin Kaifeng, cultivation at the Ninth Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm, top-tier aptitude, score ninety-eight points."
These large characters, which flashed into view, immediately attracted everyone’s gaze and were extremely dazzling.
Perhaps it was arranged by people like Tang Yuntian of the Formation Sect to make the array formation in such a way that, after Qin Kaifeng tested his talents, the luminescent text would appear very eye-catching.
"Haha, mere superior aptitude, and you dare to make a fuss? Have you seen the top-tier aptitude of others? That’s what a real martial artist looks like. I suggest you all go home, or you’ll only be asking for trouble."
Upon glimpsing Qin Kaifeng’s talent, the corner of Qi Xiuwu’s mouth immediately curled into a smug grin.
Even though Qin Kaifeng’s talent far surpassed his own, Qi Xiuwu seemed intent on bickering with people like Du Feiyu, ready to give them a piece of his mind.
"You... If that guy hadn’t robbed me of all the treasures I had on me, I would have surely been able to increase my cultivation during this time, and my score wouldn’t possibly be so low."
Upon hearing Qi Xiuwu’s criticism, Hong Lan immediately stepped forward, hands on her hips as she pointed at Qi Xiuwu and expressed her discontent.
"Oh, it turns out you’re upset because Brother Lin took away your treasures. Then you’re more than welcome to go find him yourself."
Qi Xiuwu didn’t shy away from stirring the pot, sneering coldly at Hong Lan.
He truly wished Hong Lan would lose her temper and go settle the score with Lin Chen because he knew if Hong Lan and her group really troubled Lin Chen, it would be them who’d end up in trouble. After all, with Lin Chen’s infamous reputation in the Formation Sect, who would dare to provoke him lightly?
At Qi Xiuwu’s words, Hong Lan became instantly furious, her hair nearly standing on end with anger.
"Enough, junior sister, stop making a fuss," the middle-aged man came over to Hong Lan, his face stern as he immediately chided her.
The middle-aged man was genuinely afraid that Hong Lan might provoke Du Feiyu to defend her again and cause trouble with Lin Chen.
Lin Chen’s notoriety had already spread within the Formation Sect, so the middle-aged man was well aware that Lin Chen was a difficult person to provoke, and he was honestly scared.
Provoking Lin Chen again would certainly lead to consequences they wouldn’t be able to escape from.
Although Du Feiyu’s talent was strong, after the last battle between Du Feiyu and Lin Chen, it became clear that Du Feiyu could not possibly be Lin Chen’s opponent.
"But senior brother, that guy and Lin Chen clearly tricked us and even robbed us of our treasures."
"We can have junior brother Feiyu fight for us again. Last time, he almost defeated that guy called Lin Chen."
Hong Lan had always believed that Du Feiyu was gaining the upper hand in his last fight with Lin Chen. This left both the middle-aged man and Du Feiyu utterly speechless.
They really didn’t know how to explain to Hong Lan that their last fight with Lin Chen resulted in their defeat, and surely they wouldn’t dare to say it in front of so many people, would they?
"Junior sister, this is not our own family grounds. We can’t afford to act rashly anymore; otherwise, if we cause trouble, none of the four of us will be able to leave the Formation Sect safely," the middle-aged man said with a grave expression, making the situation sound more serious.
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Hong Lan turned to Du Feiyu, looking for help with pleading eyes, but all she received in return was Du Feiyu shaking his head.
"Senior sister, you should listen to the senior brothers. That guy called Lin Chen isn’t someone we can afford to provoke. It was you who initially wanted to take treasures from him. We picked trouble ourselves and fell into someone else’s hands, getting robbed of our own treasures, and it was our fault," Du Feiyu said to Hong Lan, for the first time refusing to go along with her plan and instead delivering words that struck at Hong Lan’s hopes.
"Even you, junior brother Feiyu..."
At that moment, Hong Lan felt incredibly wronged. She could never have imagined that her junior brother, who always heeded her wishes, would now side with another and oppose her.
But how could Hong Lan know that Du Feiyu acted in such a way precisely because of his previous encounter with Lin Chen? He realized Lin Chen’s fearsomeness.
If they really became enemies with Lin Chen, it was doubtful whether they would be able to leave the Formation Sect safely.
After all, Lin Chen, despite being a vile person, seemed to abide by some principles for now. But who could predict if, during the upcoming trials, Lin Chen would combine new resentment with old and act against them unfavorably?
"Senior sister, just listen to the senior brothers and don’t be so headstrong,"
