Two disciples who brought Fu Chen retreated. Fu Chen was standing in the middle of the room with his hands tied by the ropes. He was facing three elders who were sitting behind a desk.

Two of them were middle-aged men and one of them was a middle-aged woman. But, that’s not all. There were a lot of elders from Outer-Door, Inner-Door, and other elders as well. All of them were standing, unlike those three elders.

All of them were surrounding him in silence. He also noticed Elder Zhu staring at him with a cold smirk on his face.

“Disciple Fu Chen, you have been accused of secretly learning Sect’s Martial Art without Elder’s Permission. Would you like to say something in your defense?” One of the elders sitting in the middle spoke with a serious tone.

Fu Chen was trembling in the middle but Ysla kept reminding him to breathe in and out to calm down. Fu Chen calmed down quickly and bowed.

“Respected Elder, living in the sect for one year as Trainee, I have never seen anyone using the Martial Art. The only reason I was able to copy Disciple Zhu Tan’s Martial Art was because of the Eye Talent that I awakened during my training with Miss Xue.”

“I have no words to prove it but I can show it in front of all the elders. As long as Martial Art isn’t performed by someone too powerful than me and someone who isn’t hiding some aspect of the Martial Art, I can copy it in front of everyone.”

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Suddenly, Fu Chen heard clapping from the side which stunned him for a moment. One of the elders walked toward him while clapping his hand and said.

“Disciple Fu Chen, you really have such a nerve to lie in front of every elder present here. I couldn’t help but feel stunned by your lying capacity.”

“You didn’t just copy his martial art. You also performed it as good as him on your first try without having the slightest amount of spiritual qi in your body.”

“Are you saying that you were able to do all of that which took disciple Zhu Tan one year to train?”

Hearing his question, Fu Chen immediately understood that this was the elder who doesn’t want someone without a background to have any talent. He clenched his fist and tried to answer but the elder didn’t let him.

The elder turned at those three main elders and said “I would like to inform the Law Elders that Disciple Fu Chen has been fighting with Disciple Zhu Tan for a year now.”

Then, he turned around and said “Disciple Fu Chen, you know Disciple Zhu Tan very well. You know where he trains. You know where goes. He and you have a lot of history together.”

“So, how can we not say that you have been spying on him to learn his martial art and beat him up? And most importantly, every time we recruit a disciple in our sect, we check their talent.”

“You have no talent at all. And, everything you just said was nothing but a lie.”

The elder walked in front of him releasing his massive aura against Fu Chen. This aura was so strong that it pushed Fu Chen to his knees. The elder moved his hand and grab Fu Chen’s neck but suddenly someone grabbed his hand.

“Let go of him!”

Cold words that were too familiar to Fu Chen rang in his ears but he was on the brink of losing his consciousness. At this moment, another pressure exploded against the elder.

But this time, it wasn’t just the pressure. A phantom appeared behind Miss Xue. The phantom was a tall warrior in armor. Its face wasn’t clear but from its body structure especially in front, the warrior was a female.

She grabbed the elder’s neck and at this moment, one of the elders from the desk stood up and shouted.

“Xue Le, let go of Elder Zhang!”

Miss Xue turned her cold eyes at the elder and turned her gaze at the elder. The elder was struggling as his hand slowly let go of Fu Chen’s neck.

Thud!

The next moment, her phantom dropped the elder to the ground. Miss Xue helped Fu Chen get up and supported him.

“Elders, I would like to say some words in favor of Disciple Fu Chen. May I?”

Miss Xue didn’t go violent rather she calmly spoke to the three elders. The elder at the right quickly sat down and three of them nodded their heads.

“Disciple Fu Chen didn’t learn Roaring Tiger Stance through illegal means. He copied it while in the middle of the battle and I have the proof of it. Since words won’t be much proof, I would like to demonstrate it in front of everyone.”

When she said that, this time everyone went whispering to each other. Because unlike Fu Chen’s, her words held a lot of power and weight into it. Miss Xue turned around and took out a white pill.

“Eat it and restore your strength!”

Fu Chen didn’t reject it. After he swallowed it, the pill instantly melted in his throat and after a few seconds, the fatigue that he got from Elder Zhang disappeared entirely.

“Now, show them how much you know about Roaring Tiger Stance, everything!”

Miss Xue asked him.

Fu Chen was a little bit confused since he thought he would be asked to copy someone’s martial art but he still performed it.

Miss Xue retreated a few meters. Fu Chen clenched his fist and ran Roaring Tiger Stance in his mind. He bent his knees a little and clenched his fist. Slowly, a phantom of a tiger appeared behind him.

The silver-blue spiritual qi burst out of his dantian and erupted all around him. As he took a step forward with his right leg, his fist punched straight.

“First Stance- Crushing Fangs!”

The phantom roared and punched forward which overlapped his fist as well. And, the spiritual qi all gathered between the phantom’s hand and his hand, making a powerful coating around his hand.

Fwhoosh!

His strike created a powerful impact in the air which got dissolved immediately.

But, he didn’t end it either. Fu Chen took back his hand and opened his fist. The phantom of the tiger turned red and his blue-silver spiritual qi also turned red.

In an instant, it released a massive aura, unlike the first stance. Now, he slashed his arm across and the phantom created a claw around his hand that slashed the air.

“Second Stance- Pouring Blood Fang!”

Fwhoosh!

Just like before, it only created a small vacuum in the air which got filled immediately. It wasn’t something amazing but the second stance did make them quite interested in him.

Finally, Fu Chen stopped and looked at Miss Xue. She smiled at him and looked at the three elders.

“This is a performance that he is able to show just because of the first battle. Even now, some of you might not believe in this. So, how about we do something else?”

“Since Elder Zhu is here, how about we let him perform this martial art? He has practiced Roaring Tiger Stance to the perfection and so we can see if Disciple Fu Chen really has a talent for this or not.”

Miss Xue turned at Elder Zhu and said “Please come here and show your expertise!”

It felt like she was mocking him but Elder Zhu had no chance of showing his anger. He walked to the middle of the stage and cruelly stared at Fu Chen.

“Disciple Fu Chen, please come here!” Miss Xue called him while three elders stood up. They released their spiritual Qi but suddenly Miss Xue spoke.

“You can’t do that. If you use your full strength, how can Disciple Fu Chen prove his words? Elders, please restrict Elder Zhu’s strength temporarily so that he won’t make it complex for Disciple Fu Chen.”

“Of course, if Elder Zhu declined here, then we can all say that Elder Zhang has used force against a talented disciple and thereby he must comply to the Laws of the Sect and compensate for disciple’s loses.”

“And, since Disciple Fu Chen was almost mentally broken down and also physically tortured. Elder Zhang should pay 1000 Jars of Qi Condensed Pill and Ten Thousand Silver Coins as compensation for the talented disciple’s health or else he will get kicked out of the sect.”

When she said that, the entire room got silent for a moment. And just when Elder Zhang tried to rebuke her, Miss Xue looked at Elder Zhu and said “Of course, if Elder Zhu performed and regardless of the outcome, Elder Zhang will not suffer any consequences since he acted the way he did to prove whether Disciple Fu Chen has talent or not.”

“So, Elder Zhu, shall we start?”

At this moment, Miss Xue had a big smile on her face. And, at this moment, everyone realized that she arrived even before Elder Zhang could lay a finger on Fu Chen.

But, she waited just to make the best out of this situation.

1000 Qi Condensed Pill and 10000 Silver Coins!

Or,

Perfection in Roaring Tiger Stance!

No matter what the outcome might be, Fu Chen was going to be the winner.

………..

Somewhere far from the city, nearly at the edge of the forest.

There were black clouds gathering. Under the black clouds, there was a white fox. She had sharp eyes.

She looked at the black clouds and muttered “I must pass this tribulation. Only then I can awaken my bloodline. Ancestor, bless me!”
