Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1075: Challenge the Senior Disciple

Although Lin Chen created an impressive miracle in martial arts, after all, Yaozong is based on alchemy. So, if Lin Chen is strong in martial arts but lacks accomplishments in alchemy, he definitely won’t gain everyone’s respect.

Hong Liang and Zhang Cheng were both worried. Despite the impressive resources of Yaozong, any distinguished medical skills from outside would still be nothing once here.

Other disciples on the shore were also discussing, and Wang Chen’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. What Fang Zhantang raised was also something he had been worried about, and judging from the reactions of the other disciples, clearly many felt uneasy about it.

After all, if Lin Chen’s alchemy skills are subpar, merely having martial arts insights into the Internal Classic of Medicine would indeed be hard to convince everyone.

His gaze flickered to Lin Chen, and he couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Lin Chen seemed unconcerned with the challenge posed by Fang Zhantang. Instead, he had a faint smile as he looked at Fang Zhantang, without the slightest hint of panic.

”Alchemy? As for what level I’m at, I’m actually not too sure, but I feel like I shouldn’t lose to you, Senior Brother Fang!”

”What did you say?” Everyone was shocked upon hearing Lin Chen’s arrogant words.

This guy is too arrogant, isn’t he? Senior Brother Fang is one of the top alchemists in Yaozong, even the Sect Master praises his alchemy skills, yet this newcomer claims he won’t lose to Fang Zhantang.

”Boy, you’re audacious!” Fang Zhantang sneered.

”I’m audacious because I have the audacity.” Lin Chen said with confidence.

”Fine, fine, fine. If your alchemy skills can beat mine, I won’t object to you taking a spot. I believe everyone will accept it too.” Fang Zhantang’s eyes flashed coldly.

At this moment, other disciples of the Human Hall were also excited. With Lin Chen’s Combat Power, if he could really surpass Fang Zhantang in alchemy, then the Human Hall’s chance to rise from the bottom of the three halls would be promising.

For many years, the Human Hall has been last every year, and the disciples have been ridiculed by the other two halls, unable to hold their heads up. Thinking about the possibility of turning the tables, these people couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

”Humph! So boastful! You’re just a kid from the wild, how high could your alchemy skills be? Not to mention surpassing the experts from the other two halls, even if you excel in martial arts, you’ll lose terribly in alchemy.” Fang Zhantang snorted.

”Is that so? It seems that under Senior Brother Fang’s leadership, the Human Hall has indeed been at the bottom every year. Well, I can guarantee, with me here, the Human Hall will be first in the year-end competition in three months.” Lin Chen said confidently.

Human Hall first!

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, everyone present was astonished. This Lin Chen was simply too arrogant, he was clearly provoking the experts of the other two halls.

”With your amateurish medical skills, you dare to proclaim number one?” Fang Zhantang snorted coldly.

”If that’s the case, how about I spar with you, Senior Brother Fang, do you dare?” Lin Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Lin Chen challenge him, Fang Zhantang was momentarily stunned: ”Fine, since that’s the case, I want to see what skills you possess that can elevate the Human Hall to first place.”

Watching this scene, Yao Hui’s eyes narrowed slightly. He really wanted to see what abilities Lin Chen had to be so arrogant.

And other disciples were also full of anticipation. They had just witnessed Lin Chen’s martial arts prowess, and very much wanted to know what level his alchemy skills were at.

Fang Zhantang had a smug look on his face, glancing playfully at Lin Chen, then turned to Wang Chen and Xu Kai and said, ”Master, Uncle, I want to spar with my junior brother in alchemy. This junior brother is too arrogant. I’ll cool him down and let him understand the profoundness of our Yaozong’s alchemy.”

Upon hearing Fang Zhantang’s words, the brows of Wang Chen and Xu Kai, the two Hall Masters, furrowed.

By now, many disciples had gathered around, including those from the Heaven and Earth Halls. Lin Chen had spoken such big words and actively challenged Fang Zhantang. If he lost, he would undoubtedly take a big fall.

After all, Lin Chen is the hope for the Human Hall, even Yaozong’s future. Not knowing Lin Chen’s abilities, they naturally wouldn’t let him take risks lightly.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Chen said, ”Since you two have decided to compete, let’s schedule it for the month-end competition in three days. Then you two can spar properly.”

Hearing Wang Chen’s words, Yao Hui secretly frowned. This old fellow is really sly. If it’s during the month-end competition, then it’s an internal spar. Even if Lin Chen loses, the impact would certainly be minimized.

Xu Kai also smiled at Lin Chen and said, ”Lin Chen, you have just joined Yaozong and haven’t studied our medicinal texts. Now you can enter Bai Cao Tang and freely browse the medical books and alchemical texts there, and study alchemy.”

Upon hearing the two Hall Masters, Lin Chen had a bitter smile.

Although the two Hall Masters clearly intended to protect him, it also showed that they didn’t think much of his alchemy skills from another perspective.

But after all, they meant well, and Lin Chen couldn’t argue. So, he could only say, ”Thank you, both Hall Masters, I will study diligently.”

Although he said this, Lin Chen was laughing to himself. Lin Chen possessed a popularity system, and Master Xiao was not only familiar with Yaozong’s alchemical texts but also had a clear grasp of alchemical texts from the entire plane and other planes. Was there even a need to study?

Fang Zhantang also saw the two Hall Masters’ bias towards Lin Chen, but he didn’t mind and replied with a faint smile, ”Junior Brother Lin, since the Master has spoken, you really should make good use of these three days to study hard. Otherwise, you’ll lose too miserably. Besides, in three days, if you want to beat me, it’s nothing but a daydream, so I will definitely win this time.”

”Well, that’s not necessarily true. Don’t draw the bow too full, don’t speak too firmly, lest when the time comes, you slap yourself in the face and have nowhere to hide.” Lin Chen replied with a hearty smile.

”Sharp-tongued, I want to see in three days who will slap whose face.” Fang Zhantang snorted coldly.

Seeing the heated tension between the two, Wang Chen smiled wryly. One was his beloved disciple, and the other was the future hope of the Human Hall, but he also knew, if Lin Chen wanted to grasp the Internal Classic of Medicine, if he wanted to stand firm in the Human Hall, he had to overcome the barrier of Fang Zhantang.

”Alright, disperse now. Lin Chen, in these three days, make the most of your time. We hope you will give us an exciting duel in three days.” Wang Chen smiled and said.

At last, this event that stirred the entire Yaozong, known as the Spirit Lake incident, concluded like this.

Many Yaozong disciples also left one after another, each carrying their own emotions, some with admiration, some with envy, but most with anticipation of the month-end competition in three days.

Today, Lin Chen created an unprecedented legend at Spirit Lake, and the question lingered: would Lin Chen bring an even greater surprise in three days?

Of course, not many had high hopes for Lin Chen in his duel with Fang Zhantang, but Lin Chen’s daring had already garnered silent admiration.

After all, as a newcomer, daring to challenge the hall’s top disciple on his first day in the sect was something that had never happened before.
