“Two hours? Impossible!”
Hong Yue nodded at first, but at this moment, he jumped up directly.
Answering more than thirty questions in two hours, what a joke? This is simply something that cannot be done.
“What on earth is going on?”
Hong Yue's expression turned ugly.
“I... we are also unclear, but previously it was Liu Yue who received Qin Chen, and Liu Yue is still in the answering area, he must know!” The disciple hesitated for a moment and said.
“Liu Yue? Bring Liu Yue here!”
Hong Yue's face was ashen, with a command, immediately a well-meaning disciple excitedly called Liu Yue over.
The answering area is extremely sacred; disciples answering questions there cannot be directly interrupted, even he, as the Supreme Elder, cannot disrupt it. This is the most basic rule of Tian Gong, so they could only call Liu Yue.
Liu Yue was in the answering area and was anxiously pacing back and forth. Upon hearing the summons from Supreme Elder Hong Yue, he walked over with a sorrowful face, feeling utterly desperate.
“Speak, what is going on with that Qin Chen?” Hong Yue's demeanor was imposing, yet not angry.
“Replying to the Supreme Elder, that Qin Chen is the newly appointed Holy Son of Tian Gong. He found his subordinates before and said he wanted to complete tasks to earn contribution points. After choosing a few tasks, he decided on the answering tasks. To earn more contribution points, he had his subordinates send messages to all the Refiners who had previously issued tasks, asking them to verify the answers within a day. Many refused, but some Refiners agreed. Now Qin Chen is answering those tasks.”
Liu Yue stammered.
“It’s just to earn contribution points?”
Hong Yue looked confused: “He is a newly appointed Holy Son, where does he get the ability to answer so many questions?”
“This... I don't know either.” Liu Yue replied, terrified.
Hong Yue furrowed his brows: “I remember that the time for selecting Holy Sons has not yet arrived, so who specially approved Qin Chen’s identity as Holy Son?”
“It was the Grand Elder.”
“The Grand Elder? Could it be that Qin Chen really has a super abnormal talent in refining, capable of answering all questions? Or is he a late-stage Earth Level Refiner? Impossible…”
Hong Yue couldn't help but speak, his brows furrowing as he thought carefully.
Those who could join Tian Gong were almost never fools, and Qin Chen was also the personally approved Holy Son of the Grand Elder. He still somewhat trusted the Grand Elder's vision.
Could it be that Qin Chen is a late-stage Earth Level Refiner, so as soon as he joined Tian Gong, the Grand Elder specially approved him as Holy Son? But even a late-stage Earth Level Refiner couldn't possibly answer more than thirty questions in two hours, right?
“Late-stage Earth Level?” Liu Yue's vision darkened: “Replying to the Supreme Elder, this Qin Chen joined through our Tian Gong assessment and recently just broke through to early-stage Heaven Saint, not a late-stage Earth Level Refiner!”
“Just recently broke through to early-stage Heaven Saint?” Hong Yue's forehead was covered in black lines: “This is simply ridiculous!”
He originally thought Qin Chen was a top Refiner who was specially recruited to answer, who knew he was just a disciple who had just broken through to Heaven Saint. Although he is a Holy Son, his refining skills haven't even reached mid-level Earth Level.
Isn't this nonsense?
“Supreme Elder Hong Yue, this Qin Chen is clearly creating chaos; why not have a disciple pull him out?”
Some disciples were eager to try, their eyes shining.
Being able to show off in front of the Supreme Elder is a rare opportunity. Normally, they wouldn’t dare to act against a Holy Son, but as long as Supreme Elder Hong Yue gives an order, they have nothing to fear.
“Not appropriate.”
Hong Yue frowned and waved his hand.
Although Qin Chen was randomly answering questions, he hadn’t violated any rules. So far, there’s been no evidence that Qin Chen was causing chaos.
