Chapter 497: (1/2)

Jiang Chen's words didn't cause any waves as Shun Long and the rest all stared at him apathetically.

Even if he and Shun Long hadn't been forced to fight against stronger opponents during the fourth test after attracting Elder Cao Ling's attention who wanted to find out what secrets they were hiding, and even if Jiang Chen didn't have an extraordinary fate after testing himself on the ball of fate, just from the fact that he actually had an immortal-grade bloodline was enough for many Elders to become interested in him.

Thus, Shun Long barely looked at Jiang Chen after hearing this, before he turned his attention towards Bai Longtian.

Surprisingly, Bai Longtian also nodded his head in response, and after scratching his head in a slightly awkward manner he said

''Me as well. The truth is that I didn't have any hopes of an Elder choosing to take me as their disciple, since the only thing that I revealed during the fourth test was my Dao of the Buddha. But Elder He Kun found me almost instantly after we entered the Holy sect a week ago, and told me that I have potential in becoming a powerful swordsman even if I haven't comprehended the Dao of the Sword, and that he wanted to take me as his disciple.''

Shun Long nodded his head in response, while inwardly he felt that Bai Longtian was really lucky.

Out of the 4 people around him, Shun Long knew that Bai Longtian had the lowest chances of having an Elder taking him as a personal disciple due to the fact that he hadn't exposed his Golden Buddha unique physique during the sect's test.

So, having an Elder take a liking to him and choose him as a disciple even though he hadn't shown his full abilities was really a form of luck.

At the same time, Xie Xingyi had a curious look on her face as she seemed to have realized something, and staring at Bai Longtian she then asked without any reservation

''Since you have such a powerful unique physique, why didn't you reveal it during the fourth test? Isn't the goal of entering the Holy sect, for us to become stronger while also getting a master?''

Bai Longtian shook his head, while the look in his eyes was serious as he responded without any hesitation

''Although getting an Elder to become interested in me would be easier that way, my strength isn't used as a show to attract attention. I will only use my Golden Buddha physique when I don't have any other choice, otherwise, I feel that I wouldn't be myself anymore if I did it to attract a master that way.''

Shun Long and the rest all nodded their heads when they heard this, while even the apathetic look in Jiang Chen's eyes when he looked at Bai Longtian diminished slightly as he seemed to have agreed with what he said.
