C397 You Talk Big

Indeed, with Duanmu Kuang's current age and achievements, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he had never achieved anything like this before. His talent was unprecedented!

However, who could guarantee that his future path of martial arts would always be so smooth and smooth, and that he would continue to grow so smoothly?

One had to know that besides a martial artist's own talent, willpower and conviction were equally important in martial cultivation. At the same time, they also had to deal with many external factors.

There was no lack of shockingly talented geniuses in history, but there were very few who were able to become famous throughout the ages. Why was this so? It was because although some people had good talent, they did not have extraordinary willpower. In the end, they fell on the path of becoming the ultimate powerhouse.

It was to the extent where there were even some who were killed midway. There were some people whose talents were too exceptional, and sometimes even the heavens did not permit their existence. There were some people in history who had just bloomed and made a name for themselves before they were killed in the cradle. Their lives had come to an end, and they had become a legend in history.

At this point in time, those people and those things were occasionally mentioned by others, and they were taken to be used for laughing or teaching the younger generation. They only possessed peerless natural talent, yet their entire lives were mediocre, and there was nothing more pitiable than this!

It could be said that every expert that was renowned throughout the ages was born from extreme difficulty, and no one was able to rely solely on their natural talent to become an extreme expert. This was the consensus of everyone!

Even the people of Five Mountain Sect were very optimistic about Duanmu Kuang's future. They had high hopes for him, but they couldn't refute this point!

After all, there were examples of ancient proud son of heaven becoming a passerby. Mufan's words weren't wrong.

In fact, although Mufan's words weren't pleasant to hear and had the intention of targeting the Five Mountain Sect, from another perspective, this was also a fact. He was only stating his own opinion, and it had a warning effect.

All along, the higher ups of the Five Mountain Sect had regarded Duanmu Kuang as the new hope for the rise of the sect. They had placed endless hopes on him, and had been hiding it all along, so that he wouldn't be exposed to the public easily.

However, they had never really thought about what the future of this disciple of theirs would be like. Would he really be able to become a supreme expert? Was it really so certain?

Mufan's words could be said to have sounded the alarm for all the higher ups of Five Mountain Sect. Looking at the current situation, was this scene so familiar? Almost everyone on the scene had high hopes for Duanmu Kuang, thinking that his future achievements would be limitless. This kind of scene, how similar was it to those ancient proud son of heaven recorded in the records?

However, those few people were ultimately submerged in the dust of history, not even stirring up the slightest bit of waves. Their lives were endless, to the extent where they were recorded in the annals of history, becoming a negative example, becoming the laughingstock of later generations.

That's right, Duanmu Kuang was doing very well right now, breaking the history of martial arts and establishing the martial arts pioneer. However, what if there were some twists and turns in his future path of martial arts?

Would it be like the few famous proud son of heaven in history, which only appeared for a short period of time? The higher ups of Five Mountain Sect were silent. They were all seriously thinking about this problem.

In the future, no one could say it clearly because it was full of unknowns. No one could know what would happen in the future. Even the Heavenly-rank expert could not accurately determine a person's future.

Furthermore, Duanmu Kuang had a criminal record and had fallen. This was also the reason why the higher ups of Five Mountain Sect did not refute Mufan. They were very worried about this as they were afraid that he would repeat the same mistake.

In the past, Lyi Hentian was killed by an expert from outside the domain, and he died for his beloved disciple. This made Duanmu Kuang depressed. He had fallen into depravity for a very long time. No matter who tried to comfort him, it was useless. He was drunk all day long. He was willing to fall into depravity, and almost became a real cripple.

This matter wasn't only known by the people of Five Mountain Sect. All the warriors who had been to Southern Ferocious Land during that period of time basically knew about this matter.

In the scene, a small number of people had already started to change the direction of the spearhead and agreed with Mufan's point of view. They were the people who knew about Duanmu Kuang's "past." They were discussing in low voices.

"I remember now. That disciple of Five Mountain Sect was indeed once a baldy. I heard that he had suffered some kind of blow. He spent all day drinking to relieve his worries. At that time, he was almost crippled."

"Heh, now that you mention it, I also remember now. That little fellow seemed to have gotten a nickname back then. He was called an alcoholic. He was very famous in Southern Ferocious Land. "

" Oh? In that case, although that little guy called Duanmu Kuang has great talent, he isn't someone with a strong will."

"It seems like Mufan isn't entirely targeting the Five Mountain Sect. What's the use of just having good talent? If he doesn't have a strong will, those few people in the ancient history will be the best example."

More and more people joined in. Many people changed their tone. After all, there were a few living examples from the ancient times. Everyone was full of doubts about Duanmu Kuang's future, because his will wasn't strong enough.

However, most of the people present still maintained their original views, because the few talents of the proud son of heaven in the ancient history couldn't be seen. Duanmu Kuang's talent was right in front of their eyes.

Before this, ___'s talent was right in front of their eyes. Before this, everyone was stunned by Duanmu Kuang. How could they change their views on him just because of a few words?

Someone immediately retorted, "Not necessarily, right? This kid has such talent, how could his future achievements be bad?"

It was clear that most people still chose to believe their own eyes. Even though Mufan's words also had a certain reason, and there were several ancient proud son of heaven that had fallen halfway through as collateral evidence, it still couldn't change most people's views.

However, Mufan's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. When he saw that the people of Five Mountain Sect were speechless, and there were people present who supported his view, he actually started to boast shamelessly.

"Humph!" At this moment, he was like a victorious rooster. His nostrils were about to reach the sky. In the end, he even started to talk nonsense. He acted like he was giving orders to the world. He said carelessly, "Isn't it just breaking a record and condensing elemental energy in the Essence Opening Stage? What's there to be proud of? "

Hua!

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. If Mufan's previous words were to be pragmatic, at the very least, it would be a matter of fact. But now, these words were unreasonably jealous, and it was a slap to the Five Mountain Sect's face!

With a "Teng," all the higher ups of the Five Mountain Sect stood up. All of them were extremely angry. If they could still bear it before, now, even their uncle and aunt could not bear it anymore.

Before this, previously, the higher ups of the Five Mountain Sect did not want to argue with Mufan. It was because they didn't want to fall out with him again. However, they didn't expect that... This old thing had actually stepped on their faces. All the higher ups of the Five Mountain Sect had unfriendly expressions on their faces. All of them glared at him.

Many people in the scene were speechless. They had never seen such a shameless person. It was obvious that they were jealous of him, but he was actually able to say such a thing.

What did he mean by breaking a record? Look at what this old fellow said. It was as if he was eating and drinking. He broke the record in an instant. How could a historical record be so easy to break? !
