The Hooligan in Another World

Chapter 176 At All Costs

“Come ring the bell.” Nan Ruoli’s face was a bit ugly.

You took a fancy to one pair of shoes, and someone who didn't like them rushed to buy them. How could you feel comfortable? Now Nan Ruoli felt this way. Lin Feng was that shoes, and Chen Tianlin was the one who robbed the shoes in Nan Ruoli's eyes.

After giving the order, Nan Ruoli walked toward Tian Jianfeng's meeting hall, followed by Chen Tianlin and Lin Feng, who were shaking their heads.

The bell couldn’t be easily rung. It rang three times to gather the elders for a meeting, five times to gather all the disciples, seven times to alert the sect master, and nine times to save the sect.

The three melodious bell tolls traveled hundreds of kilometers, audible to all mountain peaks within the sect. After the bell tolls, Nan Ruoli brought Chen Tianlin and his disciple to the official hall.

Nan Ruoli sat at the head of the conference hall. Chen Tianlin sat at the second seat on his left and said: “Feng’er, stand behind me.”

Lin Feng nodded and stood behind Chen Tianlin. Looking at the arrangement of the chairs, he was a little confused. "Aren't there 11 elders? Now there are 12 chairs in the lobby. Including Nan Ruoli's seat, there are 13 chairs in total. Who is the other one?"

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they continuously entered the conference hall. They all bowed towards Nan Ruoli and sat down.

These people were all big shots. The reason why Lin Feng paid attention to them one by one was because he wanted his eyes to be brighter in the future and not to offend them.

Chen Tianlin didn't even look at the person who came in. He closed his eyes as if he had not woken up. At this time, an old man with a gloomy face and an aquiline nose came in and nodded at Nan Ruolin before sitting in the first seat on the right.

“Why is this person so formidable, even nodding his head slightly in greeting to the Sect Master. What status does he have?” Lin Feng muttered in his heart.

"Who are you? Is this the place you can come?" The eagle-nosed old man looked at Lin Feng and asked.

Chen Tianlin opened his eyes. "I brought him here. Does First Elder have any problems?"

This old bastard is the First Elder, Cao Ruoheng? Lin Feng could not help but pay more attention to him.

“Elder Chen doesn’t know the rules?” First Elder Cao Ruoheng seemed to be purposefully picking a fight.

“Ah haha, the First Elder is teaching me rules? What am I doing? You have no right to say.” Chen Tianlin stood up.

“Alright, calm down.” Nan Ruoli glared at the two.

Chen Tianlin and Cao Ruoheng looked at each other and sat down with a snort.

In a short while, most of the people had arrived. Only the head seat of Chen Tianlin was empty. However, Nan Ruoli and the other elders didn’t seem to have any intention of speaking hastily.

Just as Lin Feng was wondering who it was that needed so many big shots to wait for him, a silver-haired old man wearing a simple robe walked in.

After this old man entered, all the elders stood up and bowed respectfully. Even Sect Master Nan Ruoli of the Po Jun Sect was no exception.

The silver haired elder seemed to feel that all of this was normal. Without any indication, his gaze landed on Lin Feng’s body.

It was just a simple glance, but it made Lin Feng feel as if someone had seen through everything. What a sharp gaze, and it made Lin Feng feel respect for this old man.

The old man nodded and took the seat in front of Chen Tianlin.

After the old man took his seat, Nan Ruoli and the elders sat back down.

‘Who is this? Is there someone stronger than the Sect Master? Eleven Elders? This person is definitely not one of the eleven Elders. Then who could it be?’ Lin Feng’s heart was filled with questions.

Nan Ruoli looked at them and stood up, saying, “There is no other reason as to why we have gathered everyone here today. Elder Chen wants to accept a disciple. According to the rules, we will see what everyone thinks. If anyone has any suggestions, please raise them or not.”

Nan Ruoli sat down after speaking and waited for the elders’ opinions.

Actually, this was merely a formality. As long as one’s reputation was not ruined, there would generally not be any objection from the elders.

The Elders remained silent. Cao Ruoheng merely snorted, but was unable to find any excuse to refute.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Nan Ruoli stood up and said: “It seems like all of you have forfeited. No objection, no support. Very well, the elders have passed this trial, but I, Nan Ruoli, do not agree.”

“Second senior brother, are you really going against me?” Chen Tianlin stood up and glared at Nan Ruoli.

“That’s right. Junior brother Chen, I am either targeting something or speaking the truth. This child shouldn’t have become your disciple.” Nan Ruoli ignored Chen Tianlin’s man-eating gaze and said those words to himself.

“Why? Are you going to fight me head on? Give me a reasonable reason.” Chen Tianlin’s eyes were round.

“It’s for no other reason. This Sovereign believes that he cultivates Combat Qi and his battle techniques are more suitable, and not magic. I’m afraid you’re going to make a mistake.” Nan Ruoli threw caution to the wind and didn’t care about Chen Tianlin’s attitude.

“Nonsense! Lin Feng, come out! Get the elders to check out your magic robes and see if it is suitable for you to use magic or battle energy! I am misleading my disciples? Which one of them is not outstanding?” Chen Tianlin roared furiously.

After listening to the conversation between the two, the elders realised that it wasn’t that the Sect Master didn’t agree; it was that the Sect Master was planning on snatching a disciple. This was simply too outrageous.

It had to be known that Chen Tianlin never accepted disciples, and his standards were so high that they reached his forehead. This time, his acceptance of a disciple was already very shocking. Now, as the Sect Master of the Great Po Jun Sect, Nan Ruoli, had the audacity to snatch a disciple from him. Was this kid really that good?

Lin Feng was pulled out by Chen Tianlin and stood in the middle of the crowd.

Chen Tianlin pointed at Lin Feng’s mage robe and shouted, “Look! Everyone, look at this! Three-moon Two-star Mage, mastering Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, and Lightning Mages! He’s not even eighteen this year, yet you want him to cultivate Combat Qi and Battle Skills? What are you at ease about?”

In order to smoothly recruit Lin Feng, Chen Tianlin was no longer afraid of exposing himself.

All the elders began to discuss and gradually leaned towards supporting Chen Tianlin.

“Wait, this is what you said. I admits that what you’ve said is the truth. However, why didn’t you say what you’ve concealed?” Seeing that the intention of the elders was to support Chen Tianlin, Nan Ruoli spoke.

“What am I hiding? Is what I said fake?” Chen Tianlin rubbed his neck and said.

“Fine, Elder Chen, if you don’t want to say it, I will say it for you. This kid is not just a rank 3 magus, he is also a rank 3 War King. He is a War King who has comprehended the Water and Fire Essence concepts.” Seeing Chen Tianlin clamouring non-stop, Nan Ruoli threw out his own reasons.

The moment those words left his mouth, all the elders’ eyes widened in shock. This news shocked them. A rank 3 expert who practised both demon and martial arts before the age of eighteen? They’d never even heard of such a thing in the Flame Yang Continent.

After groaning for a long time, Chen Tianlin said, "You're right. I found it. What right do you have to compete with me? Besides, it depends on this guy, right? Are you going to fight against me so openly?"

When he said that, Chen Tianlin's confidence was indeed lacking. Why was that? Because there were very few people at the War King realm who could comprehend the Heavenly Origin realm. There were almost none at the fourth stage. Even for a fourth-stage Combat Emperor Realm cultivator, they would not be able to comprehend much. Furthermore, Lin Feng was comprehending a dual concept of water and fire. It was indeed a loss for him to give up on practicing Combat Qi after becoming a shareholder.

“Elder Chen, you dare swear that kid didn’t comprehend the sky origin realm? Then what did he use when he fought with me last night?” Nan Ruoli once again delivered a blow to Elder Chen’s self confidence.

“That’s magic, yes, magic.” Chen Tianlin threw caution to the wind and refused to admit it.

“Alright, if you say Magic means Magic, then what’s on his back?” Nan Ruoli asked with a smile.

"Lin Feng's spear. It's okay if you want to play. Don't carry it in the future, or it will delay your cultivation of magic. Feng'er's weapon is carried on his back for fun. Yes, it's carried for fun." Chen Tianlin said something that himself didn't believe.

Nan Ruoli had the upper hand and smilingly said: “That’s fine, you can count it as playing with me behind my back. I have already expected this. Junior Brother Chen doesn’t want to admit his Combat Qi talent, right? Very well, Junior Brother Chen is yours. Men, summon Xin Biao and Meng He.”

As Nan Ruoli's words came out, Chen Tianlin and Lin Feng were stunned. This guy was so scheming that he predicted everything.

“Greetings, protectors, schoolmasters, and elders.” Xin Biao and Meng He came in and kneeled.

“Enough, you two get up and talk. How did you lose to him a few days ago? Tell me in detail, don’t be the slightest bit careless.” Nan Ruoli said coldly.

Xin Biao recounted in detail what happened when he met Lin Feng and the elders once again whispered to each other.

“Do you all understand? I’m speaking the truth, right?” Nan Ruoli swept his gaze over the elders and spoke to Chen Tianlin.

“Let’s not talk about anything else. I want to take him as a disciple right now? Who’s stopping me?” Chen Tianlin exploded. His hair fluttered in the wind and he was clearly angry.

“Elder Chen, please calm down,” said the elder seated on Chen Tianlin’s seat of honor.

Chen Tianlin sat down again, but his aura was evidently fluctuating.

The situation in the lobby calmed down.

“I don’t have any other intentions, it’s just that I don’t want to waste talents and choose a path suitable for him. I don’t want to delay his future.” With that, Nan Ruoli sat down.

Chen Tianlin stood up and said, “Sect Head is clearly trying to rob , yet you still speak so grandly. You want me to accept a disciple? You want to sound so self-righteous when you interfere? Today, I will definitely accept this disciple. Right now, let’s see what Lin Feng himself thinks.”

“I am also thinking of the big picture of the Army Shattering Sect. Junior Martial Brother Chen, I’m sorry.” Nan Ruoli knew that he had gone too far, and after speaking, he slightly bowed towards Chen Tianlin.

“Then I won’t consider the bigger picture. If an elder needs to be examined before accepting a disciple, then I won’t become an elder.” Chen Tianlin decided to disregard everything.

It was now time!! Not for the sake of the flowers, but for the second time, the number of flowers that were worth celebrating skyrocketed today. He was touched and thanked her again!!
