Chapter 400 Mission from Above!
Chapter 400 Mission from Above!
Upon hearing these words, the group from Heavenly Temple immediately felt a chill run down their spines, and they could feel an invisible pressure bearing down on their hearts, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Qin Jiang's striking performance just now had thoroughly terrified them, and now they all looked at each other, with not a single person daring to step forward and accept the challenge.
Seeing that no one around him dared to speak up, let alone step forward, Han Xiuran's face turned extremely ugly as he cursed out loud, "A bunch of useless trash!"
The group of young people all hung their heads low, not daring to make a sound.
How could they dare to step forward?
Anyone with eyes could see that Qin Jiang was filled with a fierce aura, even the three prodigies had been defeated by his hand, now who would dare to step up? It would be masochism!
Ye Wujie and his companions had their teeth almost clenched to the point of breaking, and their faces looked even worse than if they had eaten shit.
Why?
Why was it always like this?
They had planned everything flawlessly, but why did Qin Jiang always manage to turn the tables?
Not only was he unharmed now, but he had also been appointed as the new Hall Master of Dragon Hall, a blow that was simply too great for them.
Especially since they had watched Qin Jiang grow up right before their eyes, it was enough to suppress them completely!
Why was Qin Jiang always so lucky?
Why was it always them who got hurt and suffered losses?
Thinking of this, they felt unbearably sour and jealous in their hearts.
Just then, an indifferent voice slowly came, "I will do it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked around but failed to see the person who had spoken.
Then, a fleeting figure appeared on the platform, and a middle-aged man showed up in front of Qin Jiang.
In an instant, an extremely oppressive force enveloped Qin Jiang, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
"Good!"
The middle-aged man smiled coldly and just as he was preparing to make a move against Qin Jiang, a distant yet majestic voice suddenly came through.
"The emissary from the Literary Institute, Lord Li Lang, has arrived!"
An emissary from the Literary Institute?
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned, as no one had expected someone from the Literary Institute to come here.
Everyone was curious as to why the official from the Literary Institute had come here.
Even Han Xiuran, as one of the Elders of Heavenly Temple, frowned slightly at this development.
Several men entered into Dragon Hall and moved to the side as a middle-aged man dressed in white drew everyone's attention upon his arrival.
This person was indeed a top expert from the Literary Institute as well as a trusted aide to an Elder of the Institute.
His appearance caused the atmosphere at the scene to become inexplicably tense.
The crowd felt a tightening in their hearts and became visibly uncomfortable.
Everyone quickly bowed and greeted Li Lang, "We welcome Lord Li Lang!"
Li Lang surveyed the crowd and finally fixed his gaze on Qin Jiang, speaking indifferently, "You are the new Hall Master elected by the eastern division of Dragon Hall?"
"Indeed, my name is Qin Jiang." Qin Jiang responded with a bow, polite, yet neither servile nor overbearing.
"Very good," Li Lang assessed Qin Jiang before addressing the rest, "Since the new Hall Master has been elected, it's best that those unrelated leave this place as soon as possible."
"Yes—"
The people on scene felt a shiver in their hearts and promptly left according to Li Lang's instruction, not daring to stay there any longer; before long, only those of Dragon Hall remained.
Li Lang then addressed Qin Jiang, "First of all, congratulations on becoming the new Hall Master of Dragon Hall. I have come here to tell you about a mission that the higher-ups have entrusted me to pass on to you."
Qin Jiang was curious, "May I ask what the mission is?"@@@@
