Chapter 298: Discussion

This is the defensive power approaching the second rank!

Even though he did not use his full strength for this punch, he had exerted seventy or eighty percent of it. Not only did it fail to break the defense of the Green Light Armor, but he himself did not feel much impact either.

"Hu."

Wang Yu exhaled a long breath, and his body expanded by another large margin, turning into a small giant nearly two zhang tall. At the same time, wisps of golden mist emerged from the gaps in the armor and quickly wrapped around and attached to the surface.

In the blink of an eye, dense golden patterns appeared on the surface of the green armor, looking very mysterious. His right fist was covered layer by layer in gold, almost turning the entire fist into a pure golden color.

Wang Yu stood up solemnly.

"Boom."

The massive golden fist hammered onto his chest with ten percent of his strength. A wave of air rolled out, causing Wang Yu's body to tremble slightly, and he could not help but take half a step back.

Centered on his chest, the surface of the green light shield rippled and fluctuated, and golden spirit patterns condensed, but they rolled and dissipated immediately, only to start calming down quickly. However, after a few breaths, the light shield returned to normal.

Very good!

Seeing this, Wang Yu was greatly satisfied.

With the defensive power of this Green Light Armor, even with his formidable fist power, I fear it would take over a dozen punches in one go to possibly break it. Furthermore, the Green Light Armor itself is quite sturdy, so it should also be able to resist a certain amount of damage.

This is just the defensive effect displayed by three parts. If all six parts can be collected, I don't know to what terrifying degree the defensive effect could be improved.

The claim that this set of artifacts was intended to imitate the third-rank Green Flood Dragon Armor seems to be mostly true. I just don't know to what extent the defense of the real third-rank battle armor is terrifying.

Wang Yu could not help but ponder with yearning.

In a certain hall at the top of Mount Tianzhu.

Over a dozen Foundation Establishment elders were gathered here, discussing heatedly. A few people were even arguing loudly, rolling up their sleeves and stomping their feet, their faces red.

Sitting in the main seat of the hall was a withered old man with a three-strand long beard, who was also lost in thought and silent.

"Li Li Shixiong Kang, you are the Sect Master. Regarding Wang Yu's application to become a true disciple, you must give an explanation.

Nephew Wang has made great contributions to the sect this time. Asking for a true disciple status does not seem excessive, after all, he is basically the number one person in Qi Refinement now." A Foundation Establishment cultivator who looked like a white-faced scholar suddenly stopped arguing with the burly man with a face full of flesh opposite him and instead asked the withered old man sitting in the main seat.

Upon hearing this, the withered old man frowned and did not immediately answer the scholar's question. Instead, the burly man with a face full of flesh opposite the scholar snorted and retorted:

"Wang Wang Shidi Yu, that is not right. Although Wang Yu has made some contributions and has astonishing strength among Qi Refinement disciples, he is only of four-element spirit root aptitude after all. Even if he is given true disciple resources, how far can he go? I fear whether he can even reach Foundation Establishment is a question.

Don't forget, the sect's true disciples were originally meant to cultivate Golden Core seeds. How could we waste resources on a disciple with inferior aptitude? On the contrary, Li Er and Yun Cang, who just reached Foundation Establishment recently, are both under forty and both possess dual spirit roots. They clearly still have a chance to impact the Golden Core, so they should be given true disciple resource support. That is the correct principle."

"It seems that in order to fight for the true disciple status, you two Li and Yun families really don't avoid anything at all." The white-faced scholar's face sank upon hearing this.

"Wang Wang Shidi Yu, recommending a newly established Foundation Establishment cultivator with better aptitude to become a true disciple—what part of that does not comply with the sect rules? What does this have to do with the Li family and the Yun family? If it were any other disciple with good aptitude, I would recommend them just the same as I would Wang Wang Shidi Li." Another old man with a red face also spoke slowly, but his words clearly favored the burly man.

"Li Li Shixiong Yun is right. The reason I recommend Li Er and Yun Cang to become true disciples is simply because they are the only two in the sect who have recently reached Foundation Establishment and are more suitable to become true disciples," the burly man with a face full of flesh said brazenly.

"Wang Wang Shidi Li, Li Li Shixiong Yun, are you two treating us as fools? The fact that only these two have reached Foundation Establishment recently is because your two families are well-informed.

Just as the Jialan Secret Realm matter started, you already began arranging for a large number of your own family disciples to impact Foundation Establishment within the sect. A total of over ten Qi Refinement perfection disciples from both families impacted Foundation Establishment, and only two succeeded. Even so, you still dream of coveting the true disciple status?" The white-faced scholar seemed unable to endure any longer and said loudly to the two people opposite him.

"Wang Wang Shidi Yu, one cannot speak recklessly. These are all just your speculative words. Do you have any evidence?

Besides, can you guarantee that Wang Yu will definitely succeed in Foundation Establishment after becoming a true disciple? If you cannot, then naturally it is better to leave the true disciple resources to others." The Yun family old man still spoke in a leisurely manner, showing no signs of panic.

"Exactly. Even if our two families arranged for so many disciples to impact Foundation Establishment at the same time, it was just a coincidence." The Li family burly man beside him also said with a grin.

"You..."

"Enough. How should this matter be handled? Li Li Shixiong Kang, make a decision. Such matters have always been decided jointly by the Sect Master and the Elder Council; there is no need to trouble the few ancestors too much.

I still have a talisman that hasn't been finished drawing. Decide early so I can go back early." A beautiful young woman seemed unable to endure the three people's arguing any longer. After a sharp scolding interrupted the three people's conversation, she said impatiently to Sect Master Kang in the main seat.

"Junior Sister Ye, don't be anxious. Am I not thinking about how to handle this matter? After all, what the three Junior Brothers said all makes some sense. Wang Wang Shidi Yu, are there only two true disciple spots currently vacant?" Li Li Shixiong Kang asked the white-faced scholar.

"Sect Master, the true disciple resources that can be provided in the sect now are far less than before. It is indeed only possible to satisfy the cultivation of two more true disciples. This is even the result after canceling the three true disciples of the Qinglong Mountain lineage from the list."

"Regarding the Qinglong Mountain lineage matter, the three ancestors have all spoken. Although this lineage has had an incident, the ordinary disciples of Qinglong Mountain are innocent, and we must not cut off the inheritance of this lineage. Therefore, one of the true disciple spots vacant this time must be reserved for Qinglong Mountain," Sect Master Kang said decisively after a moment of contemplation.

Once these words were spoken, Wang Wang Shidi Yu and the cultivators of the Li and Yun families did not refute, and the other Foundation Establishment elders also nodded, clearly tacitly agreeing to this matter.

"So the only thing that needs to be determined now is just the remaining one true disciple. According to our sect's rules, no matter who becomes a true disciple, they must first pass an assessment. Therefore..." Sect Master Kang was saying while pondering, but before he could finish his words, a large cluster of red light flew over from outside the hall. After a few flashes, it appeared beside Sect Master Kang, revealing a man with half his hair fiery red.

"Wang Wang Shidi Gu."

Sect Master Kang's words stopped abruptly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Li Li Shixiong Gu."

"Wang Wang Shidi Gu."

Except for a sparse two or three, the other Foundation Establishment elders greeted him enthusiastically.

"Li Li Shixiong Kang, you rarely come to the Elder Council. Could it be that Uncle-Master Li Huo has some important instructions?" Sect Master Kang asked in surprise.

"It is not that Uncle-Master Li Huo has instructions, but I heard that the Elder Council is discussing the true disciple matter this time, so I came over to tell Li Li Shixiong Kang something first." After Gu Fei bowed to Sect Master Kang, he moved his mouth slightly to transmit his voice over.

Sect Master Kang's expression was normal at first, but after a moment, a trace of surprise appeared, and finally, he could not help but ask the red-haired man: "Wang Wang Shidi Gu, is this matter true?"

"Of course it is true. It is just that Uncle-Master Tianchan does not want too many people to know about this matter now, so I can only tell Li Li Shixiong privately," Gu Fei said with a smile.

"Many thanks, Wang Wang Shidi, for telling me in time. I know how to handle it." After Sect Master Kang's face changed between cloudy and sunny for a while, he finally bowed and thanked him.

"Easy, easy. I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first." After the red-haired man laughed, he cupped his fists to the other Foundation Establishment elders again, and then turned into a cluster of red light and flew out of the hall. ===== CHAPTER 299 =====
