Seeing that they had grown stronger day by day, the other transcendent powers all took measures to protect themselves, so their Hua Ding Sect similarly could not be left behind. An alliance was the best way out.

No matter what, Qing Xuan Sect was a genuine big sect, they had quite a bit of ability to contend against Yuan Sect, so if they formed an alliance with it, the latter would definitely think twice, and at least restrain some of their overzealous actions.

Moreover, I have given you three years of observation time. If there is anything amiss, we can discuss it in the future. Today's marriage proposal must respond with enough goodwill.

Regarding the choice of Qing Xuan Sect, we don't have the authority to interfere, but since he has come, we can't complete the mission so easily.

The Head Elder lightly stroked the white beard on his chin and made a suggestion.

In this old man's opinion, we shouldn't rush to express our opinion and see how skilled this young reverend is.

Nangong Yi's expression softened a lot as he thought to himself that the Great Clan Elder understood his intentions more.

That's right, our sect just so happens to have this thought as well. We can set up a few checkpoints for him and explain it to the outside world.

With the decision of the two great leaders, the rest of the elders could not speak anymore. The next part of the discussion was about how to test Chen Fan so that he would not lose his dignity and send a good signal to the Qing Xuan Sect s.

After being settled, no one bothered for three days straight, so in the end, Peng Lu directly slipped out. He had come to the Hua Ding Sect a few times before, and also made two or three friends.

The usually silent Qin Sheng had been called away by Protector Wang. He didn't know what reason it was, maybe it was because he was looking for him to talk about marriage, or because it was just a way to reminisce about old times.

Only Chen Fan, who had yet to leave, was like a married woman who could not bear to waste even a moment to cultivate.

He no longer had his usual cultivation level, but his instincts told him of a fact. There was someone spying on him from nowhere. His eyes were everywhere, yet they were nowhere to be seen as they filled the entire room.

It looks like these old fellows from Hua Ding Sect were already tempted, and in the next two days, they would definitely make a decision. Perhaps they would even need to conduct a special examination of me.

Chen Fan thought to himself. He was very clear that the reason they kept Qin Sheng away was to keep an eye on his movements. After all, a twenty year old Guardian was just too eye-catching.

He did not mind it at all, since he was focused on his cultivation anyway. His Heavenly Feather Seven Transformations and Eight Extreme Palms had both improved greatly, but the Heavenly Heart Formula s were useless — he could not be impudent in someone's territory when he was new here.

If only he could leave behind a set of Hua Ding Sect, Chen Fan thought to himself.

Although he had found out from Peng Lu that this Sect had existed for tens of thousands of years, he still could not recall anything.

When the sun rose on the fourth day, Peng Lu finally delivered a message.

Alien Minister Chen, Hua Ding Sect has proposed to undergo a young genius' test, it is said that it is to promote marriage, and they want you to participate in it by name.

Uuu, I'll just go, and let them take a look at my Qing Xuan Sect's true strength as well.

As he expected, Chen Fan replied. After the furtive gaze yesterday disappeared, he knew that there would be an outcome for those old fellows.

In these two days, I heard quite a few rumors in Hua Ding Sect. It seemed that many of them didn't agree with this marriage, and said that they would teach you a lesson on the stage.

Earlier, he knew from the Qing Xuan Sect that this mission would not be easy to accept. If not for the elder's forceful order, he definitely would not have come to the Hua Ding Sect to receive this anger.

So what? A bunch of useless trash wanted to follow in Zhao Hong's footsteps.

Chen Fan replied indifferently, these small matters wouldn't disturb his state of mind.

This is clearly bullying us, we actually sent a lot of inner disciples. This is the real news I heard, we have confirmed the person.

Peng Lu's eyes were filled with deep worry. He wanted to go up on stage, but the Hua Ding Sect elders and soldiers were not allowed, they were the ones in control.

Ever since he started cultivating with the Heavenly Heart Formula, Chen Fan had never been worried that the Spiritual Energy would run dry this time. Furthermore, there were still Ancient Token of Grand Master in his hands.

Sigh, I'll go call my master, it's going to start in an hour. Peng Lu was not optimistic about the outcome of the test, and sighed as he walked out.

Peng Lu, you must remember that no matter when it comes down to it, only when one's own strength is the right thing to do.

With regards to this little fellow, it seemed like she was truly taking care of herself, so Chen Fan gave her an appropriate amount of advice.

Un, I know Alien Minister Chen.

After taking one step forward, he landed on the ground. Peng Lu didn't know why, but he felt so strongly about the words of the former, as if there was some kind of magic behind them.

Just as he stepped onto the martial stage, Chen Fan's heart slightly jumped.

Hm?

It was impossible for him to have such a feeling for no reason. He looked around in confusion, and when he saw the large stone in the middle of the training field, he immediately felt at ease.

He would definitely win today's trial, and this marriage alliance would definitely be the same as well.

With regards to the marriage test, the Hua Ding Sect had already received sufficient spread and fermentation yesterday. With the help of someone who was interested in it, a large majority of disciples held hostility towards the Qing Xuan Sect.

The test used to express goodwill had also been tarnished into a demonstration of Qing Xuan Sect. Many people had gathered at the Martial Arts Practice Grounds in advance, and there were quite a few cursing and swearing from their mouths.

Looking at his decaying appearance, it was obvious that he was a short-lived ghost.

He really didn't know what Qing Xuan Sect was thinking. Letting such a fellow become a Guardian was the same as destroying oneself.

When people saw people of the same kind who were weaker than themselves, they would always have a natural sense of superiority, and this was especially true for these Hua Ding Sect disciples.

The eyes they looked at Chen Fan and the others were filled with contempt and disdain, as if they were beggars who had come to beg for food. From cultivation to aptitude, there was not a single bit that could compare to the talents of Hua Ding Sect.

In order to show that the higher ups valued him fully, the six elders, including Sect Leader, all appeared at the spectator stands at the same time.

In the face of the unkind looks from the surrounding spectators, Nangong Yi felt that he had lost the bearing of a transcendent power. He wanted to suppress them, but after thinking about it, he decided against it and decided against it.

Since these few esteemed guests are all from Qing Xuan Sect, and since our two sects have always been close with each other, today I will let this old man support them and exchange pointers with a few of my Hua Ding Sect's disciples.

To avoid further controversy, the Grand Elder deliberately avoided the word.
