Chapter 243: Becoming Famous in the Outer Court (1/2)

”Do I have to repeat myself?” The calm look on Elder Dai's face suddenly turned cold, causing Elder Cheng to tremble.

”N-No! I will leave this to you, Senior Elder!” Elder Cheng bowed to Elder Dai again before leaving the area in large strides.

Once Elder Cheng was gone, Elder Dai looked at the Outer Court disciples and said, ”Someone bring me a bucket of cold water. Now.”

Immediately after Elder Dai's words, most of the disciples there scrambled to get a bucket of cold water.

While they waited for the water, Elder Dai looked at Yuan and asked him, ”That was a marvelous display of technique. However, why didn't you strike him? It would've ended much sooner if you'd just knocked him unconscious with your fists.”

After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke in a calm voice, ”Because I was taught that intimidation works better than violence. Even if I'd beaten him, I don't think he will give up, and he will eventually come to bother me again.”

”Is that so?” Elder Dai nodded.

”Anyways, congratulations on defeating Wu Laohu who was ranked 3rd. Since you defeated him, you'll now replace his spot as third.”

Meanwhile, somewhere within the Outer Court, on the Outer Court disciple's Power Ranking, Wu Laohu's 3rd place was replaced by Yuan's name before being pushed down to the 4th place, shocking the disciples that were there to witness this change.

”Disciple Yuan? Who's this? I don't recognize this name! Where the heck did he come from?! Defeating that Mad Tiger is no easy feat!”

A small uproar occurred within the sect on that day with Yuan's name spreading like a wildfire.

A few minutes after the disciples left to get a cold bucket of water, one of the disciples finally returned with a large bucket of cold water.

”Here you go, Senior!” The disciple handed the cold bucket to Elder Dai, who immediately went onto the stage and dumped the entire cold bucket on Wu Laohu's unconscious body.

Splash!

”Aaaaaah!”

Wu Laohu woke up screaming as though he was just having a nightmare.

”Where am I?!” He looked around with a dazed look on his wet face, clearly puzzled by his situation.

However, when he saw Yuan's handsome figure standing not far away, Wu Laohu recalled everything that had happened and immediately ran away.

”Ahhh! Monster! Get away from me! Help—!”

Before Wu Laohu could run very far, Elder Dai appeared in front of him and slapped him in the face, causing him to fall on the floor again.

”Looks like you're still quite healthy.” Elder Dai said in a nonchalant voice, and she continued, ”You're lucky this wasn't a deathmatch, young man. Come with me, I have a lot to say to you.”

Although he was puzzled, Wu Laohu nodded regardless.
