Chapter 687: Tough
Before today, although the three hall masters had heard of Jing Yan, they had never met each other. As for grudges, it is even more impossible to talk about.
But today, the Holy Lord wants to add a hall to the original nine halls of the temple, and let Jing Yan serve as the master of the tenth hall, he is unhappy, and he resists the proposal of the Holy Lord Shen Chong from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, it is understandable that the other hall masters were unhappy with this proposal in their hearts.
The cake is so big, there were originally nine people sharing the cake, but now suddenly there is another Jingyan. Jing Yan joined the ranks of sharing the cake, so the nine hall masters of their nine halls would naturally get less.
On the surface, it was the addition of one temple to the temple, as if it had no direct interest in the nine hall masters, but the distribution of benefits in the ears that was secretly related to it was very complicated.
When the Three Hall Lords said these opinions, Shen Chong kept smiling.
He had expected this situation, and if Jing Yan became the master of the tenth hall smoothly, then he would feel strange. Because of this, yesterday, Shen Chong took the initiative to remind Jing Yan that things might not go so smoothly, so that Jing Yan was mentally prepared.
"I agree with the opinion of the Three Hall Lords, Jing Yan is still young, he is only in his thirties. If he becomes the master of the temple, it will be difficult to convince the people. Among the nine hall masters, the four hall masters, who were the shortest, squinted their eyes and said a word.
The hall master is by no means a simple title in name only.
Let's just say that among the current nine hall masters, some of them have strong palace masters, and the power they control can even be compared to the seven great families. This shows how much power the hall master has.
Even those few hall masters who are not keen on managing power have at least a group of extremely powerful supporters under them.
"I beg the Holy Lord to withdraw this proposal!" the Nine Hall Lord also said in a deep voice.
When Jing Yan came in just now, the Nine Hall Lord's attitude towards Jing Yan was still quite enthusiastic, but now his attitude against Jing Yan as the Ten Hall Lord is also very resolute.
In fact, in the final analysis, they still look down on Jingyan.
Even if Jing Yan's fame has spread all over the mainland recently, after all, the time to become famous is short, and in the eyes of these time-honored powerhouses, Jing Yan is still not qualified to be on an equal footing with them.
In front of them, Jing Yan is still a junior.
If the Holy Lord hadn't proposed to let Jing Yan serve as the Lord of the Ten Palaces, then they wouldn't have targeted Jing Yan, after all, they also knew Jing Yan's potential, and he might become a strong person who was not weaker than them in the future. For no reason, it is naturally unwise to offend Jingyan.
And now that it is related to their own interests, they must stand up, as for whether they will offend Jing Yan, that is the second factor that needs to be considered.
Jing Yan had been sitting there listening, and there was not much change in expression on his face. After understanding the authority of the hall master, Jing Yan also knew in his heart that it was impossible for him to become the hall master of the ten halls smoothly, so Jing Yan was prepared for the reaction of the other nine hall masters.
Jing Yan didn't rush to prove anything, he just sneered secretly in his heart.
He also knew that even the hall masters who were very enthusiastic about him just now probably didn't take him very seriously in their hearts. Superficial enthusiasm doesn't speak for itself.
"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me first. Shen Chong smiled, glanced at the hall masters, and said slowly.
"As I said just now, Jing Yan has stepped into the Dao Emperor Realm, and his combat effectiveness is very strong. Now I want to say that Jing Yan's achievements in Dan Dao are also extremely high. Jing Yan's Dan Dao talent is not weaker than the martial arts talent. Shen Chong continued.
Hearing Shen Chong's words, several of the hall masters present directly showed sneering expressions.
"Lord of the Holy Lord!"
"Jing Yan's talent in Dan Dao, I have also heard of it. It is said that at the previous Danling Conference, Jing Yan ranked first on the rookie Danwang list. However, he seems to be only a sixth-level Dan Master, right?"
"No matter how high his Dan Dao talent is, with only a sixth-level Dan master, there will still be a lot of uncertainty in the future. Let's just say that the first Danshi of the rookie Danwang list in the past, many of them did eventually become senior Danshi, but there are also a few who have reached the achievement of senior Danshi in their lifetime. ”
"And there are still a lot of high-level Dan masters on the Tian Yuan Continent. Those Dan Dao families, which one of them, have a large number of high-level Dan masters. ”
"If Jing Yan focuses on the Dan Dao, it will definitely affect his martial arts cultivation speed. If he had focused on martial arts, Dan Dao would probably not have too high an achievement. So I think that Jing Yan's identity as a Dan Master can't add much to his position as the hall master!"
The one who said these words was again the Lord of the Three Halls.
His attitude of opposition can be said to be very fierce.
When he said these words, he still looked at Jing Yan from time to time, and his sharp eyes scraped over Jing Yan many times.
And when he said these words, the other hall masters also nodded, obviously agreeing with the meaning of the three hall masters.
Jing Yan was a little unhappy.
In the words of the three hall masters, the meaning of slandering him was too obvious. These words are clearly disdainful of Jing Yan's ability.
Jing Yan looked at the three hall masters, and his brows furrowed.
"Third Hall Master, the news you have is already the old yellow calendar. After so many years in the Danling Conference, do you think I will always stay in the position of a sixth-level Dan Master?" Jing Yan looked at the three hall masters and said with a smile.
Jing Yan didn't seem to speak, but when Jing Yan spoke, the face of the three hall lords suddenly turned pale, and the eyes in his eyes became cold.
He stared at Jing Yan tightly.
Obviously, what Jing Yan said made him a little angry.
This has not yet become the hall master, so he dares to contradict him, the third hall master. He just said a few words of Jing Yan, and Jing Yan actually confronted him face to face. The meaning in that sentence seemed to mean that the information that he, the master of the three halls, had mastered. This is obviously, disrespectful to him!
"What do you mean, you're already a high-level Dan Master, right?" the Third Hall Lord sneered.
"That's right, I am indeed a high-level Dan Master. Jing Yan said.
After listening to what Hu Donghe said yesterday, Jing Yan also understood that if he chose to calm down and behave cowardly at this time, it would only make these hall masters look down on him even more.
Sometimes, you have to be tough. The other party is the Lord of the Three Palaces, so what?
Shen Chong, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at Jing Yan and the corners of his mouth twitched. Shen Chong also seems to want to see Jing Yan have the courage to compete with these old hall masters.
If under the attack of the old hall master, Jing Yan behaved submissively and wanted to calm things down, then Shen Chong would probably be disappointed.
At the meeting of the lords of the temple, the Holy Lord is the greatest. The Holy Lord is on Jing Yan's side, if Jing Yan still doesn't dare to offend people, it is normal for the Holy Lord Shen Chong to be disappointed in his heart
