What does Qin Chen want to do now?
Is he going to issue another challenge?
Many people expressed their astonishment as they looked at Qin Chen, unsure of his thoughts.
After all, Qin Chen had clearly stated before that he would not wait, that if anyone wanted to challenge him, they had to establish a bet beforehand; otherwise, he wouldn’t accept any challenges later.
He also mentioned that he was pressed for time and didn’t have the luxury to entertain them.
But how long has it been since then?
Has he changed his mind?
Is he thinking of continuing to challenge?
“Qin Chen, what are you doing…” At this moment, the true word earth venerable and radiant light saint master were also shocked, quickly approaching him with anxious expressions on their faces.
What’s going on?
It was hard-won that everyone’s perception of Qin Chen had improved, so couldn’t my young master just avoid doing something unexpected at this time?
Faced with the crowd's confusion, Qin Chen immediately spoke up, “Ahem, everyone need not be too excited. The reason this acting vice hall master has changed his mind is actually for the future development of Tian Gong.
After engaging with the elders here, I have realized that all the elders present possess remarkable skills in refining.”
“However, upon careful study and understanding, it seems everyone has fallen into some misconceptions in the path of martial arts, which has caused your strengths to not stand out as they should.”
“Indeed, our Tian Gong disciples are different from those of other races and factions of the human race; we only need to focus on refining. The path of martial arts is, in fact, secondary.
However, when the universe is in peril and during the War of the Ten Thousand Clans, others won’t care whether you are a refiner or not; they will only attack you even more fiercely.”
Qin Chen sighed, appearing heartbroken, “Think of the glorious past of our Tian Gong’s craftsmen; alas, we were among the first targets when the Demon Tribe wreaked havoc in the universe.
Thus, improving the combat levels of the elders has become one of the most urgent matters for our Tian Gong.”
“Of course, considering that the Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable is extremely busy and the vice hall masters need to sit tight for Tian Gong, there isn’t much time.
Therefore, I, this acting vice hall master, will reluctantly take the lead to make some contributions and am willing to accept your challenges, to help resolve your conflicts in battles.”
Qin Chen’s tone was righteous, as if he was wholeheartedly considering everyone present without a hint of selfishness.
Yet, as he spoke, his gaze frequently shifted to the identity token in his hand, which made many people wear strange expressions, one after another, utterly baffled.
Who are you trying to fool, kid?
Do you really have such good intentions?
So righteous-sounding, no one would believe it; if you were this kind-hearted, Elder Longyuan wouldn’t have looked so miserable before.
All the elders present, none of them were not beings who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years; each of them was well aware of Qin Chen's true motives.
Recalling how Qin Chen frequently glanced at the identity token, seemingly counting the contribution points within, a thought suddenly sprang to mind.
Could it be that Qin Chen accepted thirteen bets and obtained 13 million contribution points, thinking that contribution points were easy to earn and wanted to earn more from them?
As this thought emerged, many elders changed their expressions.
Oh my, is there really someone like this in the world?
Qin Chen observed the elders, noticing their strange expressions as if they were thinking of something else, and couldn’t help but say, “Elders, you need not overthink it. This acting vice hall master truly has no selfish motives; I am doing this for everyone’s benefit.”
“Think about it, as the acting vice hall master, isn’t it completely reasonable for me to guide my colleagues?”
