Chapter 1160: You And I Are Different

“Su Minghe, 9 wins and 3 losses, 10 points, fail!”

A crisp voice resounded in the Martial Sky Hall of the Taixu Sect before a chorus of boos was immediately heard.

The object of the boos wasn’t Su Minghe but someone who was watching the battle!

The handsome man standing on the platform could hardly believe his ears. He had failed. He had actually failed.

All the great opportunities he had pursued for a long time had always brushed past him ever so slightly, rendering him unable to accept this.

Across the entire Vast Sky Sacred Realm, all those that became supreme beings basically had to experience entering Boundless Taixu.

It was nearly impossible for one to become a top-level existence even with exceptional cultivation if one did not obtain a great opportunity left behind by ancient supremacies in Boundless Taixu.

Su Minghe was destined to be extraordinary. He didn’t just want to revitalize his family. He also wanted to soar. He wanted to…

Now, he had actually lost his bid for the most important opportunity he had planned himself for, which made him feel completely miserable.

He had done his best, and the reason he had lost three matches was because he had encountered three horrible monsters in those matches.

Yes, they were monsters. How could the three of them be so strong if they weren’t monsters? He hadn’t complained about his loss in the three matches because his opponents had beaten him fair and square with their true skills.

However, his heart was unwilling to accept the fact that the ten slots that had been available usually in the past had been reduced to nine and he was unfortunately the one in tenth place.

“Uncle Master, I refuse to accept this!” In the Taixu Sect, rules were very important, and the disciples’ obedience to their masters was equally important.

One’s future would basically be tarnished if one dared to break the rules in front of their master.

Su Minghe would never have said such words desperately if this matter wasn’t important to him.

“What are you unconvinced about?” The Taichu Yuan Venerate in charge of the matches this time responded angrily to Su Minghe’s questioning.

Although Su Minghe’s status in the future was destined not to be higher than that Taichu Yuan Venerate’s, it was clearly an act defiance on Su Minghe’s part to even dare to talk back in such a manner.

He would be treated as an incompetent person by the elders if he didn’t handle it well. The resources and treatment he received would also suffer as a result.

Since Su Minghe had already made the first step, he could only continue down the wrong path. Hence, he continued speaking in a resolved manner. “We have always had the same rules in the Taixu Sect. There have always been 10 slots available to enter Boundless Taixu.”

“These 10 slots are the reason the disciples fight against one another. Why were we only given 9 slots this time? Who has the predetermined slot?”

“I am incompetent but willing to challenge the person who was allocated the 10th slot. I will accept it if he beats me.”

Su Minghe’s words won the strong support of many people in an instant. All the disciples who supported Su Minghe shouted loudly, “Senior Brother Su is right! The inner sect and core disciples have always competed for 10 slots.”

“Why were we given only 9 slots this time?”

“Who was the last slot given to? Let him come out and compete with Senior Brother Su. Even Senior Brother Zheng Rulai won many matches to reach this point. Could this person be better than Senior Brother Zheng Rulai?”

“Are there any core disciples in the Taixu Sect who are stronger than Senior Brother Zheng Rulai?”

Cheers erupted as a commotion was caused. Some people even cussed loudly, so the situation got a little out of hand momentarily. The Yuan Venerate running the event was furious with the ruckus that had come up.

He knew that he would be labeled as incompetent for this ruckus. Hence, he had to keep the situation under control at all costs.

“The Sect makes its own decisions. All of you will immediately return to your training grounds. Otherwise, I will deal with you accordingly.”

“Uncle Master, we address you as Uncle Master because we respect you. We won’t leave if you don’t give us an explanation for this.” Knowing that there was no way out, Su Minghe stayed firm.

Now that Su Minghe was spearheading the cause, other disciples who had not obtained a slot also began to cause a commotion. At the same time, someone shouted out loud, “The last slot was given to Luo Yunyang!”

Luo Yunyang’s fame had spread far and wide throughout the Taixu Sect. The reason he had become so famous wasn’t because of his cultivation but because he was the weakest among the core disciples.

The disciples, who were already furious, became even angrier when they heard that the last slot had been reserved for Luo Yunyang.

“Come on, let’s go find Luo Yunyang. Why the heck does he deserve the slot? We’ll make him give it up!” An inner sect disciple who had a good relationship with Su Minghe shouted loudly.

They knew very well that it would not benefit them if they continued to coerce the presiding powerhouse. Finding Luo Yunyang and forcing him to give up the slot was their best choice now.

Su Minghe, who had been waiting for this moment, shouted along with the protests of his compatriots. “This slot to enter Boundless Taixu belongs to all of us! Why is Luo Yunyang holding on to it?”

“Make him give up the slot!”

As a result of the actions of Su Minghe and the others, hundreds went over to the repository Luo Yunyang was in. The presiding Taichu Yuan Venerate host glared at the scene angrily but didn’t dare take any action.

This wasn’t just because Su Minghe and the other disciples had considerable backing, but also because the might of Su Minghe and the other disciples was, in fact, comparable to his might. He would very likely be crushed by all of them if he were to insist on stopping them. That would be a fatal blow to his reputation.

“Junior Brother Luo, according to the rules of the Taixu Sect, all the slots for entering Boundless Taixu must be obtained through fighting with other disciples. I now challenge you to a battle. The winner will get to enter Boundless Taixu,” Su Minghe said in a loud, imposing manner.

Luo Yunyang had been browsing through books on Boundless Taixu in the repository. Although he did not know what he could obtain in Boundless Taixu, gaining more things would result in more benefits.

However, someone was now challenging him to a battle.

Luo Yunyang was at a slight loss and nearly couldn’t react to the stern-looking Su Minghe.

However, someone quickly told him what had happened.

Thanks to the improvement of Luo Jiutian’s cultivation, some outer gate disciples who hadn’t trusted Luo Yunyang much before had now become his unswerving followers.

Although they were not betting on Luo Yunyang coming out of this battle against Su Minghe victorious, this did not prevent them from standing firmly on Luo Yunyang’s side.

After all, they were not following Luo Yunyang because of his cultivation but because of his father.

Luo Yunyang understood what was going on and smiled gently. “Senior Brother Su Minghe, are you looking for the wrong person? I don’t have a slot to compete with you over.”

“Junior Brother Yunyang, do you think the information I have is wrong?” Su Minghe glared at Luo Yunyang and said with a smile, “If the 10th slot wasn’t given to you, then who was it given to?”

“I don’t know who it was given to, but my slot did not come from the Taixu Sect.” Luo Yunyang looked at Su Minghe and said, “My slot was the price paid to my father by Yuan Venerate Jinta. It has nothing to do with the Taixu Sect.”

A cold glint could be seen in Su Minghe’s eyes. He naturally knew the difference, but he only wanted a slot for himself, no matter the reason. Thus, after pondering this for a moment, he asked, “Junior Brother Luo, what’s the difference? You’re occupying one of the slots of the Taixu Sect!”

Luo Yunyang had gotten a clearer picture of what Su Minghe was thinking now. Thus, he glanced at Su Minghe and sneered lightly. “Senior Brother Su, since you are going to pester me for it, I shall give up this slot.”

A look of slight ecstasy appeared on Su Minghe’s face.

Luo Yunyang was going to give up his slot. This meant that the slot would be his. Just as he was about to seal the deal once and for all, Luo Yunyang added, “If he can’t even settle such a small matter without creating a mess, I think my father has to resume their feud.”

After he said that, Luo Yunyang gestured. “All of you head over to find Yuan Venerate Jinta. Tell him that I will not accept what he is offering anymore.”

Su Minghe was still a little confused at first, but they realized what was going on after someone asked their seniors.

Su Minghe felt a chill in his heart when he listened to his companion. Yuan Venerate Jinta would definitely kill Su Minghe on the spot if he really went to find him. After all, the person behind Su Minghe was weaker than Yuan Venerate Jinta.

“Junior Brother Luo, you should tell Yuan Venerate Jinta that you are voluntarily giving up the slot to allow us to compete for it to avoid breaking the rules of the sect…”

Su Minghe’s suggestion was too unreasonable, as even he felt that he was asking too much.

Luo Yunyang merely glanced back at Su Minghe with a half-smile. After Su Minghe was done, Luo Yunyang said, “Go and ask for it if you are capable. If you aren’t, then get out right now. I can’t beat you, but don’t you think I could get you expelled from the Taixu Sect in a quarter of an hour?”

Su Minghe’s face flushed red. He knew that, as he already knew that he had stubbed his toe on an iron plate.

He glared at Luo Yunyang and roared, “So… So what if you rely on your father? Even if you were to enter Boundless Taixu, you… you would get nothing out of it! You are merely wasting this slot!”

“That’s not going to happen, because Yuan Venerate Jinta has already arranged for the remaining nine disciples who received their slots to assist me.” Luo Yunyang chuckled as he walked over.
