"What? You don't want to be a part of Mount Hua Faction?!"

Chen Xiaobei's indifference devastated the hearts of the tens of thousands of people!

To the majority of those present, being a part of an ancient faction was a dream!

Being a part of Mount Hua Faction was even more so! It was a dream so beautiful that you would wake up from it smiling!

But this good-for-nothing Chen Xiaobei actually refused to join them?

"What the hell! This guy is just too much! This is an opportunity that most of us will never be able to get in our entire lifetime and he simply dismissed it?!"

"I know, right! I would be willing to sacrifice ten years of my life to join Mount Hua Faction!

"Oh, please! I'm even willing to take twenty years off mine! But this bugger Chen Xiaobei brushed it off aside like it's nothing!"

"Those who are privileged don't know what they have and take things for granted! This really pisses me off!"

...….

The audience hooted in frustration but they could do nothing about it.

This is a classic case of talented individuals that had all the right to act in a self-conceited manner and insolent on account of one's ability.

Chen Xiaobei had an unrivaled talent; therefore, he was naturally entitled to be conceited.

"Chen Xiaobei! Are you kidding with me?"

Yue Changkong's face had turned grayish green. He had already given Chen Xiaobei 3,000 Spiritual Stones and now had Chen Xiaobei rejected him!

 Yue Changkong's heart was deeply wounded!

"Faction Leader Yue, you must be kidding me."

Chen Xiaobei said cooly, "How could I be kidding when there are thousands of Jianghu heroes gathered here? I'm going to tell you one more time that I will not be part of Mount Hua Faction!"

"You…y-y-you…"

Yue Changkong's chest tightened and he felt a sudden, overwhelming urge to vomit blood.

Never did he anticipate that Chen Xiaobei had no intention of joining Mount Hua Faction.

The result of the martial arts competition had been finalized and the prizes had been given out. Not being able to retain Chen Xiaobei into their faction would mean losing the prodigy and resources!

Yue Changkong's face turned frosty and he asked anxiously, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of not being a part of Mount Hua Faction?"

All those who were listening understood very clearly that this was a threat!

If Chen Xiaobei did not accept the offer to join the faction, Yue Changkong would make sure to wreak revenge! 

"Mr. Chen! Would you be interested to join my Faction—Green Town Faction?"

Su Dongruo saw an opening and took the chance. "With your talent, you can straight away be appointed as my closest disciple. From today onward, Green Town's Seven Heroes will become Right Heroes! If anyone bothers you, Green Town Faction will protect you!"

Yue Changkong's expression darkened. He looked as if he was about to devour Su Dongruo alive!

The crowd went berserk again.

"In the world of Jianghu, one's strength is the way to make other succumb to you! Though Chen Xiaobei is still young, his strength is way more powerful than the rest of the contestants! Even the ancient factions are trying their best to recruit him!" 

"Yeah! In order to rope in Chen Xiaobei, Green Town Faction confronted Mount Hua Faction directly!"

"Even if we cry our hearts out and throw a tantrum, we wouldn't be allowed to join the ancient faction. Chen Xiaobei, on the other hand, is being fought over by the ancient factions! Oh, this is so unfair! I'm so jealous!"

"It looks like Chen Xiaobei will be joining the Green Town Faction! If he won't, he'd be slapping both ancient factions in the face." 

 ...

Amidst the clamor, Chen Xiaobei gave a completely unforeseen answer.

"I'm sorry but I also have no intention of joining Green Town Faction!" said Chen Xiaobei impassively.

He stood where he was, oozing with confidence and dominance.

Su Dongruo's wrinkled face turned a beet red. 

"Becoming the faction leader's closest disciple is actually the highest honor that a newly joined disciples can get!"

Next to him, Yue Changkong was perplexed.

"Grand Elder Su, your sincere offer was so rudely declined! That is a slap in the face to Green Town Faction!"

 "I know that!" Su Dongruo retorted, ashen-faced.

He was in great despair.

"What in the f*cking world?! Chen Xiaobei rejected Green Town Faction?!"

 "My God! This kid is insane! He's not even assessing the worth of each offer! He simply couldn't care to join either faction!"

"There must be a limit to this madness! That is just purely acting arrogantly! No good will come from this!"

"Yeah! You will suffer grievously for offending Green Town Faction and Mount Hua Faction!"

...

Once again, the crowd went into an uproar. They could not wrap their heads around Chen Xiaobei's astonishing decision.

They did not know that Chen Xiaobei would never join Mount Hua because of the heinous and dreadful Yue father and son.

On the other hand, the seventh hero, Xia Dinxi of Green Town's Seven Heroes was defeated by Chen Xiaobei.

Xia Dinxi had used Qiao'er to threaten Huo Yuanba, colluded with Blood Descendants, and brought about a hundred men to besiege the intoxicated Liu Xuanxin.

As the saying goes, the apple does not fall far from the tree!

From what he knew about Xia Dinxi, it was only logical to deduce that the authority of Green Town was also just as unprincipled.

Chen Xiaobei was not interested in being affiliated with them at all!

Of course, Chen Xiaobei would not reveal this confidential information in front of all these people. He would have to give them a different explanation.

"Everyone, please let me explain!" Chen Xiaobei spoke up. "The reason why I refused Faction Leader Yue and Grand Elder Su is not that I am trying to play hard to get but that I already have own faction! I have a master above me and I have my own disciples as well! So it goes without saying that I cannot join any other factions!"

"What? You already have a faction?"

The audience was bowled over.

If this was true, then Chen Xiaobei's refusal made complete sense.

 "Which faction do you belong to? Who is your Sifu?" Yue Changkong and Su Dongruo asked in unison.

They were no fools. They understood very clearly that a faction that was able to produce someone like Chen Xiaobei is in a league of their own. Chen Xiaobei's Sifu may very well be Jianghu's top-tier Sifu.

They wanted to get the whole picture before they face off with Chen Xiaobei. 

And their instincts were right.

Chen Xiaobei was, in fact, the disciple of Jieism. His Sifu is the Prime of Tongtian! Within the three realms, Chen Xiaobei could be considered as an individual with a top-tier background!

But Chen Xiaobei could not reveal this secret; no one would believe it anyway.

So Chen Xiaobei answered, "Bei Xuan Faction is located at where Hundred Beast Faction used to be! And I'm the faction leader of Bei Xuan Faction!"

"What? Bei Xuan Faction?" Yue Changkong gave Chen Xiaobei a blank look and questioned, "What faction is that? I've never heard of it before!"

Su Dongruo curled his lips and asked, "What rubbish faction is that? Is it even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath?"

Liu Xiyuan stepped in and explained, "I'm guessing the two of you have not heard about it before. Bei Xuan Faction was just formed a year ago! Outsiders may not have heard of it but practically the entire Dragon City Jianghu knows about it…"

"Hmph! Recently, all these Tom, Dick and Harry are coming together and calling themselves a faction! What a joke!" Su Dongruo mocked.

"Since Chen Xiaobei doesn't know how to appreciate our kindness, we won't waste our breath." Yue Changkong turned his gaze to Tai Yitan and said good-naturedly, "Yitan, you may join our Mount Hua Faction! I will take you as my closest disciple. I will devote myself to train you! I can promise with a bright future!"

As he spoke, the ten thousand pairs of eyes turned toward Tai Yitan.
