Chapter 680: One Against All
Tang Rao still had some suspicions about Lu Jun.
This guy, always seemed a bit off, too strong.
Moreover, Lu Jun was not very old, even younger than himself, yet he had reached the Heavenly Immortal Level at such a young age, which was quite impressive in the Land of Immortals.
Yes, Lu Jun was a Heavenly Immortal, although just at the first tier, but he was still a Heavenly Immortal.
He remembered Lu Jun mentioning that his family always called him trash...
What kind of family background was that...
Joining Kao Shan Sect, not sure if your family knows; if they did, they might break your legs.
Having Lu Jun participate in the competition for new disciples was not just "unrivaled;" it was like bullying the weak.
However, Tang Rao loved these kinds of situations the most.
Besides, Lu Jun seemed a bit soft, and Tang Rao always believed acting tough was a direct way to toughen up.
You go act tough, others will definitely be displeased, and when others are displeased, they will come at you, and being confronted often will naturally make you resilient.
"Brother Tang, do you want to go out today?" Just as Niu Ben left, Lu Jun came running out.
Wearing a white robe, which looked quite flamboyant.
A white robe paired with that baby-face of his, just too effeminate.
Tang Rao really didn't like that style; it always reminded him of Xue Xing pretending to be Yun Xi.
"Not going out, I've got a headache," said Tang Rao, pursing his lips.
"Ah? Then... let me massage it for you!" Lu Jun immediately stepped forward, reaching out his hands.
"Stop!" Tang Rao shouted loudly.
Lu Jun's hand halted suddenly, looking bewildered at Tang Rao.
Stop? What does that mean? Never heard of it...
"Hold on, what are you doing? Look, keep a distance of more than two meters," Tang Rao stepped back, his face filled with terror as he looked at Lu Jun.
Lu Jun looked very dejected.
"Brother Tang, didn't you say you had a headache? I just wanted to help massage it."
"I'll find a woman to do it later; it's better than with the treasure sword…" Tang Rao didn't want Lu Jun to massage him, though his hands looked soft and tender, but damn, you're a man.
If others see it, how would they look at me?
"Right, I have something to tell you." Seeing that Lu Jun had given up on massaging his head, Tang Rao took a deep breath and spoke.
"Ah? What is it?"
"In ten days, the sect is holding a competition for new members. Well, I've had Elder Niu Ben sign you up." Tang Rao said.
"Ah!!" Lu Jun was clearly startled.
"What are you surprised about? After ten days, just go crush those rookies," Tang Rao said.
"But..."
"There's no 'but'; it's happily decided." Tang Rao snapped his fingers.
"Brother Tang, I can't do it, I think..."
"If you still want to call me brother, then just do it. Stop being like a whiny man. Can those scrubs even hurt you? With your strength, they're no match for even one punch from you," Tang Rao said, frowning.
"Wouldn't that be a bit too much?"
"I think it's great, a man should dare to stand up and offend others. No fear, at most, it would cause a huge uproar," Tang Rao said.
At the same time, he thought of a fun idea.
When the time comes, just let Lu Jun fight everyone, yeah, to be a person, to be a man, should be a bit arrogant.
Lu Jun had no idea that Tang Rao had dug a big pit for him, while he was still thinking about how to fight others, Tang Rao was already thinking about how to make him act tough...
Ten days passed in a flash, Yijian Sect and Lingxiao Mountain were fighting intensely.
Previously, both sides were still arguing about who would make the first move. Now, it has become meaningless, both are fighting fiercely.
And as for Kao Shan Sect, they've just been quietly watching, without making a sound.
Everything inside the sect was calm, aside from disciples discussing, everything else was the same as usual.
Oh, speaking of differences, today is the newbie competition.
"Xiao Jun, hurry up and don't dawdle!" Tang Rao shouted in the Tumen Courtyard.
Inside the toilet, Lu Jun held the door shut, refraining from coming out at all.
"Brother, my stomach hurts, I'll squat a bit longer. Or maybe I just won't go, you also said, if I go I'll definitely be the most awesome, so let's just not fight." Lu Jun said, his tone sad and mournful.
"I'm telling you Lu Jun, you have to go today even if you don't want to. I'll give you one more minute, if you don't come out, believe it or not, I'll carry the toilet and throw you there?!" Tang Rao glared and shouted, don't think I can't do such a thing.
I'm telling you, when I go crazy, even I find myself terrifying!
Lu Jun in the toilet was clearly intimidated by Tang Rao's firmness, if Tang Rao really carried the toilet to take him there, that would be utterly humiliating.
"Brother Tang, don't, I... I... I'm coming out now." Lu Jun finally chose to yield.
"Quickly!" Tang Rao kicked the toilet, the entire toilet thundered, and Lu Jun inside screamed wildly.
One minute later, Lu Jun finally opened the toilet door, with a look of grievance on his face.
Tang Rao didn't bother speaking with Lu Jun, grabbed him, and left directly.
From the Tumen Courtyard to the main square was only a matter of seconds.
By the time Tang Rao brought Lu Jun there, it was already crowded. The newbie competition was indeed very attractive.
Whether it was newly entered disciples or the old ones from within, all came to watch. The newbies thought about whose coattails to ride depending on who was strong, while the old ones thought about connecting with talented individuals.
"Elder Niu, they're here, they're here." Soon, Tang Rao found Niu Ben, who seemed very anxious.
How could he not be anxious, Earth Sect only had two newbies, Tang Rao and Lu Jun.
And Tang Rao wasn't participating, leaving only Lu Jun.
If Lu Jun also didn't show up, then they would probably be ridiculed by other branches again.
These people, all day long they just know how to mock this and that.
"You guys finally came, I was almost about to go back and look for someone," Niu Ben said, rolling his eyes.
"This useless fool is so disappointing!" Tang Rao pointed at Lu Jun, clearly frustrated.
"Alright, alright, it's almost our turn, several matches have been played already. Xiao Jun, you have to make us proud for Earth Sect!" Niu Ben said.
Lu Jun: "…"
"Elder Niu, I want to ask you something," Tang Rao pulled Niu Ben aside and whispered.
"What is it?"
"That, I was wondering, is it possible to challenge all the competing newbies at once?" Tang Rao said.
Tang Rao's voice was very low, only Niu Ben could hear it.
Even Lu Jun standing beside couldn't hear what Tang Rao was discussing with Niu Ben.
"Huh?" Niu Ben looked incredulously at Tang Rao, challenging all competing newbies? One person fighting everyone? Tang Rao, have you gone mad? No no no, that kid Lu Jun has gone mad!
Niu Ben, of course, didn't know that Lu Jun had no idea about this.
