At this moment, everyone's gaze towards Tan Yun changed!
Lu Yi was in disbelief, his face ashen, trembling all over at the thought of the bet!
Tang Xinying and the elders looked at Tan Yun in shock. They suddenly felt that Tan Yun's identity was not simple, and he had a significant background!
Moreover, he understood the sixteenth series alchemical arts that had been lost since the Middle Ages?
The elders began to think actively; the Danmai was about to undergo a change! A disciple with exceptional alchemical talent overshadowing everyone else, even Chief Tang was humbled in comparison!
The disciples under Shen Subing looked at Tan Yun with admiration, almost ready to worship him!
Tang Xinying's attitude towards Tan Yun changed; her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of uncontainable loneliness. Then, that loneliness was quickly replaced by a fleeting excitement.
"If I can draw Tan Yun into our Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty..."
Tang Xinying thought to herself and smiled lightly, "Congratulations, Tan Yun, you have won, won perfectly, won without blemish."
"Thank you, Chief Tang, for your generous praise; I am truly flattered," Tan Yun replied with a bow, maintaining a humble demeanor.
"Mm." Tang Xinying nodded slightly, then looked down at the disciples below and announced, "I hereby declare that Tan Yun is the winner!"
Suddenly, thunderous cheers erupted in the Temporal and Spatial Dao Field, especially from the disciples under Shen Subing, who were all excitedly ecstatic.
Except for the disciples under Elder Four, the other disciples looked at Tan Yun with admiration and respect, with only a few harboring jealousy and hatred!
After signaling for silence among the disciples, Tang Xinying continued, "I hereby announce that Tan Yun has triumphed, obtaining a Supreme Spirit Mine. Elder Four is second, and the High-Quality Spirit Mine he obtained will belong to Tan Yun."
"Elder Two is third and will receive an Inferior Spirit Mine!"
After saying this, Tang Xinying, who had long been at odds with Lu Yi, cast a scornful glance at him. "Now, I hereby announce that according to our bet, you must not only cede the High-Quality Spirit Mine to Tan Yun but also kneel before him, allowing him to slap you three times, and then kneel for three days at Song Hong's grave!"
"Elder Four, since you've lost the bet, you should start fulfilling your end of it!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi trembled in fear, knowing that once he knelt, his reputation would be completely ruined for life!
A slight smirk appeared at the corner of Tan Yun's mouth. "You are the dignified Elder Four of the Immortal Sect Danmai; could you possibly be untrustworthy? Are you really going to play tricks in front of everyone?"
"Pu—"
Lu Yi, unable to contain his rage, turned red and spat out a mouthful of blood, pointing angrily at Tan Yun. "Don't go too far!"
"How dare you go too far!" Tan Yun smirked and said, "Elder Four, who gave you the courage to think you can back out in public!"
At that moment, a sudden, ancient voice echoed from the sky, "Tan Yun! If you can spare someone, then spare them; how can you speak to your future senior brother like this?"
In the next instant, a beam of light descended from the heavens, transforming before Tan Yun into Gongsun Yangchun, who smiled at him, "Tan Yun, I currently have no closed-door disciple; today I will make an exception to take you as one, and Yi'er will be your senior brother from now on, allowing the grudges from your bet to be chalked up as settled."
Gongsun Yangchun turned to Lu Yi. "Your disciple caused trouble in the Meritorious Medicine Garden and was killed by Tan Yun; that was entirely your disciple's fault. From now on, you must not hold any grudges against your junior brother Tan, understand?"
"Understood, Master!" Lu Yi immediately bowed. He realized that his master favored Tan Yun so much that he was willing to make an exception to take him as a closed-door disciple!
As Lu Yi thought this, Gongsun Yangchun truly valued talent and sincerely wanted to take Tan Yun as a closed-door disciple! Of course, he also had his own motives...
