“Brother Beichen, come. Let us go in.”
After speaking, the Martial God led Lin Yun into the great hall.
Upon entering, Lin Yun immediately caught sight of Lord Feiying Jin ahead. His first impression was that this was a free-spirited and unrestrained swordsman.
At this moment, Lin Yun’s heartbeat quickened slightly.
As a cultivator of the Feiying Swordsmanship, he had finally met Lord Feiying Jin in person.
“Master, this is my friend. His dao title is Beichen.” The Martial God immediately introduced him to Lord Feiying Jin.
“This junior Beichen pays respects to Lord Feiying Jin.” Lin Yun promptly bowed towards Lord Feiying Jin ahead, with utmost respect.
“I hear you also cultivate this lord’s Feiying Swordsmanship. This lord is willing to meet you, but that does not mean I am willing to guide or teach you. It depends on what you can offer to move me and persuade me.” Lord Feiying Jin said calmly.
After a brief moment of thought, Lin Yun replied, “As a reclusive Supreme, Lord Jin naturally places little importance on wealth. Trying to move you with money or pay for your guidance is probably impossible. Thus, the only thing I can offer is my own strength.”
Upon hearing Lin Yun’s words, Lord Feiying Jin could not help but laugh.
“Your analysis is indeed correct. Whether accepting disciples or guiding others, this lord looks only at fate. Dreaming of hiring me with money for pointers is sheer delusion!”
Lord Feiying Jin changed the subject, smiling and shaking his head. “However… you wish to move me with strength and persuade me? I am afraid you are deliberately making it difficult for yourself. This lord’s standards are extremely high! To move me with strength? You cannot do it!”
“I wish to try. As for the difficulty, Lord Feiying Jin may set it as you see fit.” Lin Yun said with a smile.
“You are quite confident. What is your realm? This lord will set a test for you accordingly.” Lord Feiying Jin said.
“Reporting to Lord Feiying Jin, this junior is at the Harmony Dao Realm.” Lin Yun said.
“My other disciple, Ge Hongtu, happens to be at the Harmony Dao Realm as well. In that case, if you can defeat him, then, for the sake of the Martial God’s earlier pleas on your behalf, this lord will offer you some guidance.” Lord Feiying Jin said.
The Martial God standing beside Lin Yun immediately spoke up. “Master, my friend Beichen has cultivated for a short time, while senior brother Ge Hongtu has cultivated for over eight hundred thousand years. Moreover, senior brother has received your personal guidance and assistance in all aspects. For him to defeat senior brother, his strength would need to completely surpass senior brother’s. This… this seems a bit too difficult.”
Hearing this test, the Martial God grew anxious on Lin Yun’s behalf.
Lord Feiying Jin smiled and said, “Martial God, you are truly concerned for your friend. However, since it is a test for him, how can the difficulty be low? If he is ordinary, what qualifies him to move me or deserve my guidance?”
Lin Yun immediately spoke up. “It is no problem, Lord Jin. This difficulty is not high. I accept this test.”
As soon as Lin Yun said this, both the Martial God and Lord Feiying Jin were stunned.
Lord Feiying Jin had thought Lin Yun would speak up to request a reduction in difficulty. He had not expected Lin Yun to say this!
By saying the difficulty was not high, Lin Yun was essentially claiming that defeating his disciple Ge Hongtu was not difficult!
“Are you that confident? You do not even know my disciple Ge Hongtu’s strength, yet you dare say such words? Are you not being a bit too arrogant?” Lord Feiying Jin narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Yun.
One must know that Ge Hongtu was Lord Feiying Jin’s prized disciple. His strength was beyond doubt, and Lord Feiying Jin was extremely confident in him.
“Lord Jin, I am not arrogant. I am confident.” Lin Yun said with a smile.
“What confidence! I like confident people. However, whether it is true confidence or overconfidence, we cannot say yet. I would like to see if you truly have the ability or are just boasting.” Lord Feiying Jin grew interested.
Immediately after, Lord Feiying Jin stood up. “Come. We go outside now.”
After speaking, Lord Feiying Jin walked directly out of the hall.
Lin Yun and the Martial God immediately followed.
“Brother Beichen, this… this test seems far too difficult. My senior brother Ge Hongtu is extremely strong.” The Martial God said worriedly.
“It is fine.” Lin Yun smiled and patted the Martial God’s shoulder.
Lin Yun truly did not know how powerful the Martial God’s senior brother was, but he was absolutely confident in his own strength.
