The matter was settled.
Following that, Wu Tian accompanied Lei Zhengxuan and Lei Qianjiao to the location of the Sacred Thunder Sect, Sacred Thunder Mountain.
Like the Divine Doctor Sect, Sacred Thunder Mountain, at first glance, appeared to be just an ordinary mountain. However, at its summit lay a passage into a small world.
The Sacred Thunder Sect's small world was named Thunder Realm. It looked not much different from the Divine Doctor Sect's.
Only, lightning constantly streaked across the sky, suggesting that the lightning element was quite abundant here.
Upon reaching their destination, Lei Zhengxuan convened a meeting with the high-ranking officials, informing them about Wu Tian.
When the officials learned of the situation, they were naturally shocked and, inevitably, felt a sense of discontent.
After all, Wu Tian was only at the lower grade of the Minor Immortal Realm. While such strength might be frightening elsewhere, within the Hidden Spirit Sects, he was not an exceptionally rare existence.
However, due to Lei Zhengxuan's authority, even though they were inwardly displeased, they could only temporarily agree.
Therefore, at least on the surface, the meeting proceeded relatively smoothly.
But just as the meeting was about to conclude, a turn of events occurred.
A man, disregarding all attempts to stop him, rushed into the grand hall and shouted, "Sect Master! I am not convinced! You must give me an explanation today!"
The man appeared to be around thirty-five or thirty-six years old. His face was filled with anger, clearly indicating he was there to cause trouble.
Seeing his audacity, Lei Zhengxuan angrily declared, "Su Dong! How dare you! Who allowed you in!"
Hearing this, Wu Tian was also somewhat surprised.
So this person was Su Dong. From his demeanor, Wu Tian could guess Su Dong's purpose for coming.
Under normal circumstances, Su Dong would certainly not dare to come and make such a scene.
But he was too enraged at the moment, so he disregarded the rules and said emotionally:
"Sect Master, no matter what, I must have an explanation today, otherwise, I will absolutely not accept it!"
"Shouldn't the spot for entering the Thunder God Immortal Realm be mine?"
"This is common knowledge, yet why did you change it so readily, and even give it to an outsider!"
"Is this not unfair of you!"
Lei Zhengxuan saw that Su Dong's words were not only unrestrained but also escalating.
He immediately slammed his hand on the armrest of his seat and stood up, saying, "You shut your mouth!"
"Su Dong, how dare you speak like that! Do you still have the rules of the Sacred Thunder Sect in your heart!"
Su Dong, having gone all out, shouted, "Of course I have the rules of the Sacred Thunder Sect in my heart, but I believe it is you, the Sect Master, who is not adhering to them!"
"By giving away my spot like this, have you not considered my feelings!"
"You are presumptuous!" Lei Zhengxuan was instantly enraged. A powerful aura immediately surged towards Su Dong, knocking him to the ground.
Seeing the situation escalate, the Grand Elder quickly stepped forward and said, "Sect Master, please calm your anger, please calm down!"
"Su Dong was just impulsive. Please do not hold it against him!"
Lei Zhengxuan snorted and said, "Grand Elder, Su Dong is your disciple, whom you personally taught. Is this how you usually teach him?"
"He trespassed into the council hall in front of everyone and dared to talk back to the Sect Master!"
"For these two offenses alone, I can expel him from the Sacred Thunder Sect!"
The Grand Elder quickly replied, "Sect Master, Su Dong is indeed at fault this time. I will naturally discipline him. Please let this matter pass."
However, even after the Grand Elder had spoken, Su Dong still cried out emotionally, "Master, I am not convinced, I am not convinced!"
"This spot is clearly mine, and to give it away like this is simply unreasonable!"
"Master, if you do not help me, then there will truly be no justice in this world!"
Although the Grand Elder felt Su Dong's words were excessive, he also felt they held some truth.
He had only taken two disciples, Lei Qianjiao and Su Dong.
It was originally a great thing that both of them could enter the Thunder God Immortal Realm.
But now Lei Zhengxuan had suddenly changed his mind, and Su Dong's objections were understandable.
So, after careful consideration, he said to Lei Zhengxuan, "Sect Master, I also feel that this matter is somewhat inappropriate."
"Even as Su Dong said, this spot was clearly his. Your sudden change of heart is indeed quite unexpected."
"Even I find such a thing unreasonable, so it is likely difficult for me to suppress Su Dong's anger."
Lei Zhengxuan gave the Grand Elder a cold glance and said, "Grand Elder, have you misunderstood something?"
"I never said that the last spot for the Thunder God Immortal Realm was confirmed for Su Dong."
"Since that is the case, what problem is there with me changing the designated person?"
"Moreover, Wu Tian not only returned the 'Heavenly Thunder Scripture' to us, but he is also the successor of the Thunder God and possesses half of the Profound Thunder Jade. I believe it is most fitting to award this spot to him."
"But..." the Grand Elder thought for a moment and continued, "Regardless, Su Dong was still under consideration. I believe this is truly too unfair to Su Dong."
Lei Zhengxuan did not want to waste words with him and maintained his cold demeanor, saying, "In that case, what do you want?"
Before the Grand Elder could speak, Su Dong loudly interjected, "If nothing else works, then let me compete with him!"
"In the Thunder God Immortal Realm, it is ultimately about strength. If I can defeat him, then let me go. This should be acceptable!"
Lei Qianjiao and Su Dong were fellow disciples, so she naturally sided with Su Dong.
She nodded and said, "Sect Master, I think Su Dong's suggestion is feasible."
"Why not let Su Dong and Wu Tian have a match? Let strength decide, and everyone will be convinced. What do you think?"
"A match?" Lei Zhengxuan hesitated.
His original intention was to let Wu Tian go, but he could not guarantee Wu Tian's strength, so he could not directly agree to this proposal.
But as he was hesitating, Wu Tian suddenly spoke, "No problem, let's have a match."
Lei Zhengxuan was surprised that Wu Tian spoke up and asked, "Wu Tian, you are..."
Wu Tian smiled and said, "I can understand him. After all, if I were in such a situation, I would also find it difficult to accept."
"So, if there's a match, let's have one. I have no objections."
