Chapter 42: Gossiping Elders

Elder ji was not the only one filled with regret. Elder Hong Sitting beside him, also had a shocked and regretful face. He brought this kid to the sect. He should have sent him to his hong faction.

Elder Yanlin, one of the other outer sect elders, sat on the other side of Elder Ji. Five months prior, the four of them, Elder Ji, Elder Hong, Elder Zhou, and Elder Yanlin, used to be close friends. However, their friendship had grown distant due to a fight between Elder Zhou and Ji.

Elder Yanlin spoke,"  " So he is that Han Cai, Old Zhou gave up the outer hall for. He is indeed a genius. Old Hong, You have met this disciple, right?"

Elder Hong shook his head and replied, "I brought him from Cloud Mountain City two years ago. His father asked me to take care of him, so I referred him to either Old Ji's faction or yours. I didn't expect Old Zhou to see his talent and keep him in his faction."

Elder Ji growled, "What are you talking about? Old Zhou didn't notice a thing. The kid joined my faction, and I took care of him for a year and a half. He wanted to take on a mission to earn spirit stones, so he went to the Outer Hall, and that bastard Zhou poached my faction's disciple."

Elder Yanlin asked, "So, he joined the sect two years ago and spent a year and a half in your faction?"

Elder Ji nodded in agreement. Elder Yanlin was envious, as Elder Zhou had taken advantage of his position as the elder responsible for the outer sect hall to claim a disciple that someone else had taken care of.

"He stayed in your faction for most of his time in the sect. Just because he was listed in the outer hall book doesn't make him part of Zhou's faction. How can you let Zhou get away with this? If it were a disciple of my faction, I would never let him get away with it."

Elder Ji looked at Elder Zhou, who was sitting in the center with a smile on his face, entirely concentrated on the arena. As other elders passed by to congratulate him on having such a talented disciple in his faction, they all knew that with the kid going to the inner sect, Elder Zhou would also gain an inner sect backer. Elder Zhou thanked them all with a smile, but the sight made Elder Ji want to vomit.

While the outer sect elders were gossiping, the platform referee had already announced the match winner, Han Cai. Han Cai was given a 30-minute break before he could be challenged, and he sat on the first platform with his eyes closed.

A few contestants from the special faction followed Han Cai's lead and challenged the other nine platforms. With this tournament begun in full swing. The disciples kept challenging the platforms, and each platform's occupant changed throughout the day. Han Cai remained comfortably on platform number one, and no one dared to challenge him. In the afternoon, two disciples, One from the Elder Faction and the Other from the Common Faction, attempted to challenge Han Cai, but he easily defeated them and sent them back to the infirmary.

In the evening, a few more disciples tried to challenge him, thinking that he might be tired, but they were all defeated and sent back to the infirmary. After that, no one dared challenge Han Cai, as the disciples knew that they would be out of the competition once they went to the infirmary. It was better to aim for the second place than to end up in the infirmary with no position.
