Chapter 94: Doing the Announcement (2/2)
After all, they were reprimanded by these two, Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru in the center for fighting each other when the pagoda was appearing yet here they are, fighting openly in front of them.
”Hmph, aren't they similar to us when they openly clash like this?” A sect elder scoffed as he touched a bruise flame mark in his face, which showed that he had received some thrashing by Elder Fang Yunru.
”You're right, at this rate, we might as well continue fighting and ignore the pagoda.” Another sect elder added, this time with a dark punched mark on his face.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing heard the other sect elder started getting impatient as the fighting between Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru continued to intensify with each sentence being more poisonous.
'Sigh, looks like I have to trouble myself again.' Elder Jing sighed inwardly as she was the only person eligible to intervene and stop their farce.
Elder Jing ordered the rest of the disciples to stay put as she started walking toward the center, causing Elder Pan Cheng and Elder Fang Yunru to stop arguing.
”Both of you wouldn't mind letting me do the announcement right?” Elder Jing asked softly as she walked in between the two of them.
Elder Pan Cheng twitched his mouth slightly before glancing at the crowd and noticed the other sect elders have their expression that was filled with dissatisfaction.
He decided to scoff loudly and said, ”Hmph, it's not like I really cared about doing the announcement as long as it's not Elder Fang Yunru doing it.”
Afterward, he left the center and went toward his sect while smirking at Elder Fang Yunru who was left in a dilemma.
If Elder Fang Yunru still dared to fight for doing the announcement then he would be making a fool out of himself when Elder Jing already gave them a leeway to get out.
Elder Fang Yunru coughed lightly as he smiled at Elder Jing.
”Since Elder Jing wanted to do the announcement then as a gentleman, it is obviously our duty to give it up. After all, it's better to have someone dignified and beautiful like Elder Jing to give the announcement rather than a barbaric and unappealing appearance.”
Elder Fang Yunru glanced at Elder Pan Cheng when he said those words as he opened his bamboo folding fan and started fanning himself lightly as he left the stage.
Elder Pan Cheng clenched his fist in anger but decided to ignore him. After all, his wording was terrible when compared to Elder Fang Yunru who studied poetry and read many books to increase his scholarly skills whereas he only focuses on his punching technique.
Meanwhile, Elder Jing decided to start speaking aloud as she feared that if she stalled any longer than those two would definitely have an all-out fight.
”Given the trembling and the cracking in the grounds, I'm sure everyone here is familiar with this scenario as the pagoda would slowly rise up.” Elder Jing exclaimed loudly and continued.
”Thus, we will group up together with a maximum limit of 3 sects in a group since everyone knows the Pagoda is full of hidden danger, and once separated, your life would most likely vanish from existence.”
