Being able to defeat the Second Elder was enough to prove Liu Zixuan's strength.
Even if he was a brand-new disciple, so new he couldn't be newer, at this moment he already had the qualifications to cross swords with Sword Venerable Ling Xiao!
Toward Liu Zixuan, aside from being convinced, the disciples had no courage to argue.
And as for Gu Huaqiu.
He had originally planned to plot Liu Zixuan's death, but never in his wildest dreams did he expect that his sneak attack would fail and instead he'd get slapped in the face by Liu Zixuan!
Now that the Second Elder had directly taken Liu Zixuan's side, Gu Huaqiu had undoubtedly become the target of everyone's criticism.
It was obvious Liu Zixuan already knew about the Second Elder and Gu Huaqiu's scheme; if he were to expose it directly in front of everyone, then not only would Gu Huaqiu fail to keep his status as the Second Elder's disciple, he would be directly expelled from the Sect, and might even be killed by the Sect Leader!
