Chapter 69 Crazy Hu, Hu Bugui.

He was thinking in his mind, his eyes jumping between the information of many warriors, and finally fell on the name of the madman Hu Bugui again.

"It is you, Crazy Hu, Hu Bugui, who will be the starting point of my challenge."

Shangguan Jiannan's eyes became firm and sharp. He read Hu Bugui's information over and over again, not missing a single detail.

"Mr. Zhang, draft a letter of challenge for me. I want to challenge Crazy Hu tomorrow."

Shangguan Jiannan's voice was steady and powerful, revealing his unquestionable determination.

He let out a long breath, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

Manager Li was stunned when he heard this, and then a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He originally thought that Shangguan Jiannan was just casually flipping through the information, but he never thought that he had made such a decision.

However, he quickly regained his composure and respectfully agreed.

Peace returned to the hall once again, but Shangguan Jiannan's heart was already in turmoil.

He knew that this battle was not only a test of his strength but also a test of his will.

The madman Hu Bugui may be just the first stumbling block on his road to challenge, but he believes that as long as he moves forward courageously, he will be able to overcome all obstacles and achieve his own glory.

This was just a passing glance, and I never expected that I would be so directly challenging Hu Bugui, who was known as a "madman."

Shangguan Jiannan, a newly promoted inner sect disciple for just over half a month, has now resolutely embarked on the road of challenging the elite list. This move even surprised Manager Li.

Normally, disciples would choose to practice for two or three months and make some progress before daring to make such attempts.

"Master Lin," Manager Li whispered with some worry, "Is this too hasty?" Shangguan Jiannan was immersed in Hu Bugui's information. He waved his hand gently and said firmly, "No hurry, we will set off to challenge tomorrow."

After saying this, he signaled Manager Li to leave. The room instantly became quiet, with only Shangguan Jiannan left.

Choosing Hu Bugui as the challenge target was actually the result of Shangguan Jiannan's careful consideration.

Crazy Hu's path of cultivation is complicated and unrefined, which is very different from those disciples who specialize in one thing.

In addition, he had a violent temperament and was easily prone to losing control of his emotions during battle, which in turn provided Shangguan Jiannan with an opportunity to take advantage of.

What’s more crucial is that Hu Bugui entered the elite list half a year ago with his desperate ruthlessness, which made many disciples stay away and unwilling to get involved with him.

After this careful consideration, Shangguan Jiannan had already made up his mind - the target was directly Hu Fengzi, Hu Bugui.

The night was peaceful, but the next morning, the entire inner courtyard was in an uproar because of a piece of news.

Shangguan Jiannan, the newly promoted inner sect disciple, is going to challenge the madman Hu Bugui, who is ranked seventeenth on the elite list. This news spreads quickly in the inner courtyard, sweeping every corner like a storm.

Shangguan Jiannan's move caused an uproar among the inner disciples.

They couldn't believe that this newcomer, who had only been in the profession for over half a month, dared to be so arrogant.

"Is Shangguan Jiannan too confident?"

"The name of Madman Hu is not just for show. He is courting his own death!"

"Hu Bugui's leg techniques, sword techniques, and profound skills are all incredibly powerful. How can he resist them?"

…In the inner courtyard, there was a lot of discussion and different opinions.

The challenge of the elite list has always been a grand event among inner disciples.

According to the rules, the challenger must issue a challenge in advance and can only proceed after the other party agrees.

This is to prevent disciples from challenging frequently and affecting their practice and rest.

However, there is an unwritten rule: if the opponent does not accept the challenge twice in a row, it is considered that the challenger has automatically admitted defeat.

Hu Bugui accepted Shangguan Jiannan's declaration of war almost without hesitation.

When this news came out, it attracted countless inner disciples to watch the battle.

For a moment, the inner courtyard was filled with noise and the challenge was about to begin under the attention of everyone.

Wearing a dark purple robe and holding a sharp steel sword in his hand, Shangguan Jiannan walked steadily towards the towering mountain where the elite list was located.

Upon hearing that their master wanted to challenge a strong man, the four maids, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, were overjoyed and followed closely, eager to witness this grand event with their own eyes.

Manager Li followed closely, staying beside him.

Servants all have expectations that the strength of their masters will stabilize and improve their status.

Shangguan Jiannan and his group of six slowly walked along the winding path towards the mountain range where the inner sect martial arts arena was located.

The path was paved with stones on both sides, reaching straight into the sky. At the end, one could vaguely see a series of towering palaces, stacked layer upon layer, with flying eaves and pointed corners, and glazed tiles sparkling in the sun. Its grandeur was far beyond the reach of their usual residences.

Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Jiannan felt a fresh air rushing into his heart, which made him feel refreshed.

"The spiritual energy here is so rich, it is indeed extraordinary."

He sighed inwardly that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here was far purer and richer than that of the outside world, which was breathtaking.

Soon, a majestic palace suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.

The terrain here is flat and the space is open. Shangguan Jiannan stared at the hall in front of him and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is the inner sect martial arts arena. Its momentum is indeed extraordinary!" However, his eyes were soon attracted by the crowd in the distance.

There, on both sides of the spacious road, there are halls scattered in an orderly manner, which is where the elite disciples are ranked.

And the place where the crowd gathered was exactly his destination.

"Ranked seventeenth, Crazy Hu, Hu Bugui."
