I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos - Chapter 201: We're Useless!
Feeling extremely frustrated, Lin Dao picked himself up from the ground and bowed to Su Zhan, saying, “My skills aren’t up to par.”
With that, he left with a dejected expression.
His entire being was in a daze. The injuries within his body were secondary.
This time, being defeated by Su Zhan’s single sword strike, he felt like a crack had formed in his unwavering Dao heart.
Effort?
Compared to freaks like Su Zhan, even if I were to put in more effort, what good would it do? Sighing softly, Lin Dao felt his internal injuries worsen by another degree.
Seeing Lin Dao concede and leave, Su Zhan shifted his gaze to the Saint King disciples who had previously been eager to challenge him.
“Now that Lin Dao has admitted defeat, who’s next?”
Hearing Su Zhan’s words, all six of the Saint King disciples shuddered with a spine-chilling sensation.
Cold sweat poured from their foreheads as they waved their hands, refusing one after another.
“No, no, no, let’s give this opportunity to Senior Chen Luo!”
“No, it’s better if you go first, Senior Liu Canglang!”
“Oh, Wu Heng, you can have this chance!”
…
All six Saint King disciples tried to decline, and none dared to be the first.
Seeing this, Su Zhan was puzzled, “Earlier, weren’t you all competing to fight me? Why are you so reluctant now? Since that’s the case, I’ll choose then!”
After a moment of thought, Su Zhan looked at Chen Luo, the tallest among them, “Chen Luo, you possess the Extreme Flame Divine Body with strong offensive capabilities. Come, let’s have a battle!”
“No, no, no!”
Chen Luo’s body trembled, and he hastily said, “My Extreme Flame Divine Body, it, it actually leans more towards cultivation, healthy living, you know, wellness? When I fight, I’m basically useless! Junior Brother Su, please choose someone else!”
The Extreme Flame Divine Body is actually for cultivating wellness?
Su Zhan was momentarily stunned, then turned his gaze to Liu Canglang beside Chen Luo, “Liu Canglang, your body refining techniques are quite formidable. How about you then?”
“I, I, I…”
Liu Canglang was drenched in sweat, struggling to speak, “To be honest, I practice body refinement to help my master chop wood! I’m really skilled at chopping wood, but when it comes to fighting, I’m just not good at it. Junior Brother Su, you should find someone else!”
Body refinement for chopping wood?
Su Zhan was speechless and had to shift his gaze to Luo Bei, “Luo Bei, your Innate Spirit Eyes—”
“Innate what eyes what?” Luo Bei hurriedly interjected, “I have the green light eyes, Junior Brother Su. I’ve actually developed an eye ailment, and it’s quite severe. Given my miserable condition, could you please spare me? Pick someone else!”
Green light eyes?
Su Zhan was thoroughly flabbergasted. What in the world were all these explanations???
His gaze had just fallen on Wu Heng when, before he could even speak, Wu Heng had already beaten him to it: “I’m useless!”
“Well…” Su Zhan looked at the other two.
“We’re useless too!” The two of them said in unison.
“Since none of you want to go, forget it.” Su Zhan shook his head in resignation.
Hearing this, the six Saint King disciples breathed a sigh of relief. If Su Zhan could cleave Lin Dao into severe injury with one sword strike, then he might as well be able to cleave them to death with one too!
Between pride and life, which was more important – they knew the answer!
Upon hearing their words, the Saints Kings of the six disciples of almost turned black with anger on their faces!
Their faces turned unsightly one by one.
Tang Wujian, on the other hand, burst into hearty laughter. He extended his hand without hesitation, pointing at the elders present, “Elder Li, your disciple Chen Luo, Extreme Flame Divine Body with powerful offense?”
Elder Li was infuriated, but for a moment couldn’t retort. He had no choice but to lower his head, avoiding eye contact with Tang Wujian. He felt like he had lost all face!
Tang Wujian pointed to another person, “Elder Ku, your disciple Luo Bei, Innate Spirit Eyes capable of seeing through everything?”
Elder Ku had a dark expression as he lowered his head.
“Elder Xie, you…”
“Enough! It’s that we’re outmatched!”
Elder Xie couldn’t take it anymore, stood up abruptly, and bowed to the Holy Master Mo Wentian, “Holy Master, I’m not feeling well today, so I’ll take my leave!”
“Alright.”
Seeing their extremely annoyed expressions and their inability to retort, Holy Master Mo Wentian stifled a laugh and nodded.
“Holy Master, I’m not feeling well either.”
“Me neither!”
“Holy Master, I bid you farewell.”
…
The masters of the six genius disciples all felt their dignity was lost and that they had become a laughingstock. They left in a fit of anger, not even taking their beloved disciples with them.
The six Saint King disciples exchanged looks with each other, then followed after their masters, clearly with no choice.
“I recommended you as a Holy Son, and yet you’re so cowardly!” As Chen Luo stepped up, his master berated him.
“I apologize, Master. It’s not that I’m cowardly; it’s just that Su Zhan is too abnormal!” Chen Luo chuckled wryly, “Master, can’t you see? With a single sword strike of his, he could cleave me in two!”
“Humph! That’s no excuse for being timid before fighting even starts!” lthough the master inwardly agreed with Chen Luo, his face remained stern, “Go back and face the wall for ten years, dedicate yourself to cultivation for ten years. You’re not allowed to leave the Holy Land during that time!”
“Yes, Master!” Chen Luo hurriedly complied.
…
At this moment, Holy Master Mo Wentian stood up from his seat, his gaze landing on Su Zhan. He spoke, “Today, in the battle for the position of the Holy Son, Su Zhan defeated Lin Dao with a single sword strike, and no one challenged him. In that case, I announce that the third Holy Son of our Heavenly Profound Holy Land is none other than Su Zhan!
“The ceremony for the Holy Son will be held on the Holy Peak in ten days!”
Hearing this, the core disciples who were still stunned by the intimidation of Su Zhan’s single sword strike finally snapped back to reality, and they all exclaimed in awe.
“One sword, defeating Lin Dao with just one sword. Junior Brother Su, no, Senior Brother Su is so strong!”
“What’s even more terrifying is that Senior Brother Su is only at the fourth transformation of the Fish-Dragon realm. Once he enters the Saint realm, how powerful will he become?!”
“Even our first and second Holy Sons, though they’ve long entered the Saint realm, still pale in comparison to Senior Brother Su!”
“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe there could be such a genius as Senior Brother Su!”
“This can’t even be called genius anymore! Genius isn’t this abnormal!!!”
“Senior Brother Su, I wonder, does Senior Brother Su have a partner? If not…”
“Nie Qianqian, how shameless can you be! You’re over a hundred years old! Are you really going after younger guys?”
“You shut up! We cultivators age similar to regular people. A hundred years for us is roughly like twenty for mortals. I’m still young!”
…
Sounds of admiration, adoration, and even infatuation resounded.
All the core disciples, each one admired and revered by the outside world as geniuses, at this moment, focused their fiery gazes on Su Zhan!
Ye Kuang’s expression was trance-like as he sat down on the ground, feeling somewhat despondent.
He hadn’t expected that even Lin Dao would be defeated by Su Zhan’s single sword strike! He had foolishly thought of using Lin Dao to kill Su Zhan and seek revenge for himself… how ridiculous!
Recalling Su Zhan’s terrifying sword strike, Ye Kuang wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, feeling a bit of fear in retrospect. Fortunately, he had restrained himself before the assessment and didn’t really make a move against Su Zhan.
Otherwise, he might have already lost his life now…
