Chapter 217: A Contest of Varying Strengths

After listening to Mo Yu's words, Lu Zhong did not deny that at that time, the situation in the Peerless Valley was in trouble, and Mo Tiancheng gathered all the Mo family members, intending to let the clansmen go to the Dao Demon Border, and at that time, he had said to Mo Yu that Mo Yu would worship the eldest brother who had helped her as a teacher. When Mo Tiancheng said those words, all the Mo family members also heard them, so these were indisputable.
However, Mo Yu's words only made Lu Zhong hesitate for a moment, but then he spoke again: "That's right, the matter of your apprenticeship was indeed said by the valley master himself, but the situation was critical at that time, and the reason why the valley lord said those words to you was just because he was sad to see you at that time, and he just said it casually in order to make you happy, this thing should not be taken seriously!"
As soon as Lu Zhong's words came out, Mo Yu's expression suddenly dimmed, and his eyes were slightly red and covered with a little mist. At that time, the situation in the Peerless Valley was severe, and the grandfather, who was the owner of the valley, faced several masters of the Demon Sect alone, and finally reached the point where the oil ran out, and he had to make a plan to let all the Mo family members leave the Peerless Valley.
However, such a decision also made many people of the Mo family very uncomfortable, at that time, Mo Tiancheng saw that Mo Yu was a little excited, and in order to make Mo Yu happy, he inadvertently said something to let Mo Yu apprentice. Therefore, what Mo Tiancheng said to Mo Yu at that time, the Mo family people present also knew in their hearts that it was just to make Mo Yu happy!
Lu Zhong's words seemed to shatter the expectations in Mo Yu's heart, making Mo Yu feel sad again. Seeing this, Zhao Zhen also felt a little annoyed in his heart, about the Hidden Valley, Zhao Zhen understood the general situation in Mo Wu's mouth, and understood Mo Yu's sad mood very well. But now, in order to target Zhao Zhen, Lu Zhong completely ignored Mo Yu's feelings, which shows that Lu Zhong has not really thought about Mo Yu from beginning to end.
Since Lu Zhong was so scathing and bent on making things difficult for Zhao Zhen, there was no need for Zhao Zhen to give the other party a good face, and at that moment, after casually taking the Qiankun bag that Mo Yu gave him into his arms, he said to Lu Zhong in a slightly low tone: "Since you said that I am not qualified to accept Mo Yu as an apprentice, then I want to ask, what are the qualifications for accepting apprentices in your mouth?"
Although Zhao Zhen had no intention of accepting apprentices before Mo Yu suddenly apprenticed, Mo Yu's cleverness and wisdom, as well as Lu Zhong's difficulties at this moment, made Zhao Zhen make up his mind to accept Mo Yu as an apprentice.
"What are the qualifications for accepting apprentices?" After hearing Zhao Zhen's words, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sneer, as if he was laughing at Zhao Zhen's ignorance, and looking at Zhao Zhen's gaze was also mixed with a down-looking attitude: "As long as you can outperform the old man in any aspect, then you are qualified to accept Mo Yu as an apprentice!
As soon as Lu Zhong's words came out, even many members of the Mo family's face became slightly embarrassed. Great Elder Lu Zhong is a cultivator at the peak of the Tribulation, although his strength does not belong to the strongest in the mortal world, but it is already a rare opponent. And Zhao Zhen's strength, although it is difficult for the Mo family's clansmen to accurately judge, but judging from the momentum exuded by his body, I am afraid that it will not exceed the cultivation of the Jindan period at most. The difference in strength between the two can be said to be worlds apart, even if the Great Elder Lu Zhong admits that Zhao Zhen is qualified to accept Mo Yu as an apprentice as long as Zhao Zhen is better than him in any aspect, but it is simply impossible for Zhao Zhen to defeat Lu Zhong in a certain aspect when the strength gap is so large.
Perhaps, Lu Zhong's practice of relying on the strong and bullying the weak at this moment is normal in the eyes of the Demon Sect cultivators who respect their strength, but even if the Mo family members are also demon cultivators, they can also see that the Great Elder Lu Zhong is full of hostility towards Zhao Zhen at this moment.
The concept of strength is deeply ingrained in the hearts of all the clansmen who have lived in the Demon Gate for a long time and cannot be shaken. In the eyes of all the people of the Mo family, they didn't think that Zhao Zhen could be better than the Great Elder Lu Zhong at the peak of the Tribulation, between Zhao Zhen and Lu Zhong, the difference between the realms of the two sides was so big, it had to make people make up their minds that if Zhao Zhen didn't back down, he would be humiliated.
Many people in the Mo family are not optimistic about Zhao Zhen, and they don't think that Zhao Zhen can have achievements against the sky in a certain aspect. However, at this moment, Zhao Zhen spoke to Lu Zhong again: "Hehe, in this way, you can't help but overestimate yourself, do you think that you will be better than you in everything?"
As soon as Zhao Zhen's words came out, Lu Zhong's face immediately became gloomy. A junior with low cultivation dares to question his strength in front of so many people, which is obviously a naked provocation. If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Zhen also had a Mahayana master by his side, Yu Linglong, who made Lu Zhong very jealous, maybe Lu Zhong would have taken it upon himself to teach Zhao Zhen a hard lesson.
"Just a junior, the tone is not small, since you are so confident in yourself, then the old man will accept your challenge at any time!" The more annoyed he was in his heart, the richer the smile on Lu Zhong's face became, and he looked at Zhao Zhen and narrowed into a slit, but the sneer at the corner of his mouth became even stronger: "As long as you can win in any aspect, then the old man will bow down and agree to accept Mo Yu as an apprentice!"
In Lu Zhong's heart, he really couldn't think of anything that such a weak junior could be better than himself. The difference in strength is so huge, if Zhao Zhen can also win in a certain aspect, then Lu Zhong's life can be regarded as a wasted life. Thinking of this, Lu Zhong's confidence seemed to be a little stronger, and at the moment, he was proud, and his mouth was also wild.
"Okay, it's a word!" After listening to Lu Zhong's words, Zhao Zhen's face also showed a smile. Since there is no one in the other party's eyes, there is no need for Zhao Zhen to save any face for the other party: "Since you have already said so, then I want to compete with you on the way to alchemy!"
As soon as Zhao Zhen's words came out, many members of the Mo family once again cast regretful glances at Zhao Zhen, and even Mo Wu, who had some understanding of Zhao Zhen, couldn't help but shake his head at this moment.
Lu Zhong, the Great Elder at the peak of the Tribulation, is the only fourth-grade alchemist in the Peerless Valley, although he can only refine the lowest-grade four-grade elixir, and he can't be called the peak on the way to alchemy, but he is at least a veritable fourth-grade alchemist, even in the entire mortal world, there are only a few.
Zhao Zhen is just a junior, if he wants to test the alchemy technique with a fourth-grade alchemist, it is undoubtedly self-inflicted, there is no suspense at all, and even to put it bluntly, this kind of competition is simply a waste of time, because in the entire demon gate, he became a genius of a fourth-grade alchemist in the Jindan period, and there is only one in history, and that genius is Mo Qi, whom the Mo family was once most proud of!
Back then, when Mo Qi became a fourth-grade alchemist, his cultivation had already reached the peak of Jindan, and Zhao Zhen's cultivation at the moment seemed to be weaker than Mo Qi's at that time. In the hearts of all the people of the Mo family, Mo Qi's talent is a mythical and legendary existence, no one would think that Zhao Zhen could be more demonic than Mo Qi, and no one dared to imagine that such an existence would happen to Zhao Zhen.
For the reaction of most of the Mo family, Lu Zhong seemed very satisfied, and his face began to be filled with a smug expression. However, just when Lu Zhongzhi was satisfied, Mo Yu's voice to Zhao Zhen made Lu Zhong frown suddenly: "Big brother, Mo Yu has already recognized you as the master, so Mo Yu believes that you will definitely win, master!"
