 Chapter 3437: Congratulations Elder on Gaining an Excellent Disciple

Seeing Lin Moyu agree, Dongfang Wuding was in an excellent mood. He took out a tea table and personally brewed tea for Lin Moyu.

This action immediately drew sidelong glances from many people.

Those who could be in the air were all bigwigs from various factions. Many had extraordinary backgrounds, with representatives from all top powers except the Cold Water Holy Land and Question Dao Sect.

They couldn't help but guess at Lin Moyu's identity, that he could make a ninth-level elder like Dongfang Wuding personally brew tea for him.

This treatment was probably only reserved for ninth-level elders from other top powers.

Yet Lin Moyu was just a little fifth-level Dao Venerable.

"Who is this young man?"

"He was personally invited up by Elder Wuding. I really can't think of what kind of person would require Elder Wuding to treat them like this."

"Indeed, I can't think of anyone. It's really strange."

The bigwigs transmitted messages to each other, speculating about Lin Moyu's identity.

Dongfang Wuding smiled and said, "Does young friend Lin know about what happened to the Question Dao Sect a few days ago?"

Lin Moyu pretended not to know, "What happened?"

Dongfang Wuding said, "It seems someone attacked the Question Dao Sect. It wasn't the Cold Water Holy Land, but someone else. However, the Question Dao Sect has blocked the news, so we only know some superficial details."

Lin Moyu said, "Perhaps the Three Ancestors would know something."

Dongfang Wuding said, "I asked the Three Ancestors, but they wouldn't say. This old man guesses the Three Ancestors definitely know something."

As he spoke, he observed Lin Moyu's expression, but unfortunately Lin Moyu's expression remained calm, revealing nothing.

Lin Moyu said, "Since the Three Ancestors won't say, there's no point in guessing. It's more interesting to watch the Nine Heavens Competition."

Dongfang Wuding chuckled, "Indeed!"

Jiang Ruoxue's competition had already begun. Of the eighteen people on stage, seventeen were at the first level of Dao Venerable, with not much difference in strength. Among these seventeen, Jiang Ruoxue was one of the best. Barring accidents, she had an extremely high chance of winning.

However, among the eighteen, there was one second-level Dao Venerable. But this second-level Dao Venerable's combat power wasn't strong, their aura unstable, clearly having reached second-level Dao Venerable through drugs.

With Jiang Ruoxue's combat power, she might not necessarily lose against them, but winning wouldn't be easy either. It was very likely to end in a draw until time ran out.

After all, this was a competition, not a fight to the death.

Jiang Ruoxue very neatly defeated her opponent, then didn't immediately choose her next opponent.

In the surrounding areas separated from her, others were still fighting. She didn't need to intervene too early. It was best if she could be the fisherman while the snipe and clam fought each other.

When others had fought to near exhaustion, Jiang Ruoxue made her choice. However, the direction she chose was opposite to that second-level Dao Venerable.

She didn't want to engage in a big battle with them at all. She only needed to gain an advantage in the occupied areas, then drag it out until the competition time ended.

Clearly she was very familiar with the rules and good at using them.

Dongfang Wuding smiled and said, "That little girl is very clever. It's a pity her talent is a bit lacking."

Lin Moyu said, "Sometimes talent doesn't represent one's ultimate achievement in the future. I think Miss Ruoxue reaching seventh-level won't be a problem."

Dongfang Wuding was slightly surprised. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that Jiang Ruoxue would at most reach fourth-level Dao Venerable. How could she possibly cultivate to seventh-level?

However, he didn't doubt Lin Moyu's words. Dongfang Wuding knew a thing or two about Lin Moyu's miraculous abilities. He certainly wouldn't speak nonsense.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, you can use that fragment of treasure that can check fortune to look at her fortune."

Dongfang Wuding's eyes immediately showed embarrassment. Earlier when he had checked Lin Moyu's fortune, he had actually been discovered.

Dongfang Wuding gave a dry laugh. Since he had been discovered, he might as well take it out openly. He put it in front of his eyes and looked. His expression immediately changed, "The little girl's fortune is very strong."

Lin Moyu said, "With her fortune, do you think she can become a seventh-level elder?"

Dongfang Wuding said, "Not just seventh-level. In this old man's view, even higher wouldn't be a problem. Young friend Lin is indeed formidable, to have comprehended the Fortune Great Dao."

To be able to discover his fortune-peeking and directly see others' fortune, if it wasn't comprehending the Fortune Great Dao, what else could it be?

However, Lin Moyu comprehending the Fortune Great Dao was a good thing for him. Being able to comprehend an illusory Great Dao meant the chances of entering the peak of Nine Heavens Peak would be a bit higher.

Lin Moyu continued watching Jiang Ruoxue's battle. Jiang Ruoxue fully utilized the rules, clearly not wanting to use the legion commander puppet Lin Moyu had given her.

She was a strong-willed woman, as could be seen from her first meeting with Lin Moyu.

Jiang Ruoxue calculated the time, defeating her opponents one after another, expanding her occupied advantage. The areas separated by the formation also changed accordingly.

Of the total eighteen areas, Jiang Ruoxue now occupied nine. There were still three people on the field, two first-level Dao Venerables occupying one area each, while that second-level Dao Venerable occupied seven areas.

Jiang Ruoxue only needed to defeat one more person to occupy ten areas. Even if the second-level Dao Venerable defeated one person, they would only have eight areas. She would still be ahead.

Now there were less than ten minutes until the end of the battle. Jiang Ruoxue was confident she could drag it out until the end.

Jiang Ruoxue chose an opponent and quickly suppressed them. It wouldn't take long to win.

Dongfang Wuding smiled and said, "What a clever little girl. It seems she's about to win."

Lin Moyu shook his head, "She'll definitely win, but there will be some twists. Two of them are working together."

Dongfang Wuding was slightly startled. He looked carefully and indeed found something amiss.

That second-level Dao Venerable should have chosen the other first-level Dao Venerable as an opponent, but they didn't. Instead, they directly chose Jiang Ruoxue's area, entering into a mixed battle.

The remaining first-level Dao Venerable cultivator also chose to join the mixed battle at this moment.

In an instant, the entire battle became a four-way melee.

In a four-way melee, if two people were working together, their chances of winning would be very high.

However, Lin Moyu wasn't worried. He knew Jiang Ruoxue's personality. If she saw trouble, she would definitely use the legion commander puppet immediately.

Not wanting to use it didn't mean she wouldn't use it.

Sure enough, not long after the four-way melee began, Jiang Ruoxue realized something was wrong. She quickly retreated and withdrew, bringing out the legion commander puppet without hesitation.

The legion commander puppet revealed its form, turning into a terrifying warrior clad in armor. Lin Moyu had suppressed it, making it difficult for others to see the legion commander's true combat power.

Faced with the ten-meter-tall legion commander, the three were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.

Jiang Ruoxue commanded the legion commander with her thoughts. The legion commander swung its war blade without a word. After three strikes, all three lost their ability to fight.

Faced with the sixth-level Dao Venerable legion commander, the three had no power to resist. If it hadn't shown mercy, they could have been killed on the spot.

Jiang Ruoxue let out a long breath, "I still had to use it!"

Jiang Ruoxue won the victory, gaining the qualification to enter Nine Heavens Peak.

Dongfang Wuding's gaze was thoughtful, "Young friend Lin, is this the puppet you gave?"

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "That's right. Does the elder think it's good?"

Dongfang Wuding said, "Young friend Lin's treasures are naturally good things. Young friend Lin, if this old man wants to take her as a disciple, what do you think?"

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Then congratulations to the elder on gaining an excellent disciple!"
