Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Your talent just isn\'t enough."

The disciples replied with a confident tone, "But that\'s not the truth. Anyone here can vouch for me for my talent in Sword Cultivation."

"What\'s your name, junior?"

"I am Mu Xing, from the Fifth Peak." The disciple replied while cupping his fists. 

Jun Xie pursed his lips when he heard the name. \'Damn, of all people, he\'s the one to object.\'

He then took a deep breath and said, "Well, Mu Xing, I will take back my words since I know your potential and talent. But that doesn\'t mean you can be my Seat Candidate. You haven\'t passed the second requirement."

"Second requirement?"

"Yes, and the requirement is that my Seat Candidate must be of the Seventh Peak."

"What?" Mu Xing was startled at such absurd requirements.

However, before he could respond, Xiao Ming, who was sitting beside him, stood and said, "Senior Brother Jun, the Seventh Peak is the weakest of all peaks. Even the disciples ranked last in the new Inner Court disciples of the Ninth Peak can rank themselves in their top 10."

After a deep breath, he continued, "And Senior brother, you have only considered sword cultivation disciples of the Seventh Peak. You haven\'t even called any other Peak\'s disciples on the stage. Doesn\'t that mean that you had already decided who to pick?"

Jun Xie was starting to get annoyed by all this now. However, Jiang Yun, who was standing beside him, was an expression of realization.

\'This guy is here for the Sword Intent disciple!\'

He correctly guessed the reason behind Jun Xie\'s odd way of selection for the Seat Candidate disciple.

One might think that he was here to create trouble and pass the time because Jiang Yun was arguing with Yuan Shuchun ever since he had entered the hall; however, he wasn\'t here to waste his time but instead, he had come because Sect Leader Su had personally come to him and informed him about a new Inner Court disciple of the Seventh Peak who had broken through the Manifestation Realm of Sword Intent. 

Sect Leader Su had asked him to find and recruit that disciple to the World League alongside another disciple called Fang Chen, who was also ranked at number one in the Inner Court Entrance Hunt for the Seventh Peak.

However, after learning of the Sword Intent disciple, Jiang Yun wasn\'t particularly interested in recruiting Fang Chen.

Without wasting any time, he brought some of the World League\'s core members and crashed the Heaven\'s Grace Banquet at the Heavenly League\'s Headquarters.

…

Jiang Yun turned and glanced at Hu Xing, who hadn\'t yet said anything after such a turn of events that made him the focal point of attention in the Banquet.

And before Jun Xie could speak anything else, Jiang Yun intervened and said, "Brother Jun, I think you are underestimating the disciples of the other peaks. Just take the example of the disciples standing in front of you."

"Bai Qing\'er. She is one of the best sword disciples among all the participants of the inner court entrance hunt. Her sword cultivation talent is second to none in all of the peaks."

"Then there\'s Mu Xing who objected to your decision; he\'s no less talented than Bai Qing\'er in terms of sword cultivation."

"And we can\'t forget Xiao Ming. He is said to be the disciple with the best battle instinct and prowess."

He then looked at Hu Xing and said to him, "Though you\'re talented, in terms of cultivation and sword talent, Mu Xing has undoubtedly proved himself to be the one with the upper hand."

He then put his hand on his chin and said, "To be honest, since Jun Xie has chosen you the seat candidate, I am also interested in your sword cultivation."

Many disciples agreed with this. They wanted to know what was so special about Hu Xing for him to be the next Seat Candidate. They were hoping Jiang Yun would force him into a spar with Mu Xing, and they will be able to clear all their doubts.

On the platform, after taking a short pause, Jiang Yun continued, "I don\'t want to see any of your sword moves, but I would rather invite you to be a part of the World League."

"Your talent and potential could bloom with the best techniques of my World League. You will be able to train with the best disciples. In fact, you will also get a chance to train with me."

The disciples in the hall were suddenly confused by his words.

At first, it was Jun Xie; now, even Jiang Yun was inviting Hu Xing to his league.

Instead of making him prove his talent, Jiang Yun was inviting him with the best conditions a disciple could ask for.

Mu Xing only had a wry smile on his face when he heard these words.

At first, he had thought Jiang Yun would allow him to challenge Hu Xing from which he would be able to prove his talent in front of these Big Three and would most likely get an invitation to be the Seat Candidate for the nine supreme.

In his mind, this chance could have been his chance to leave the Heavenly League.

However, now he could only watch as Jiang Yun suddenly turned his words at the last moment and invited Hu Xing rather than making him prove his talent.

Hu Xing was at the center of all this, now going through ten different emotions of confusion, surprise, shock, happiness, and pride, which had welled up in his heart.

…

Author note:: Sect Leader Su knows the real realm of Sword Intent that Ye Tian Yun is at, which is Sword Domain Realm (which is the third realm), but he instead told Jiang Yun that the disciple who broke through is at Manifestation Realm of Sword Intent(which is the first realm).
