Lin Beichen quickly dodged, shouting loudly while evading, "Think it over carefully, do you really want to be my apprentice?"
The charlatan grew angrier the more he listened, and his actions became even more forceful, but Lin Beichen was agile and dodged every time. After several rounds, the charlatan was panting heavily as age had taken its toll on his body.
"How about this, let's have a duel?" Lin Beichen suggested upon seeing this.
"What's the challenge?" the charlatan asked.
"Of course, it's a contest of Daoist skills. I see you're pretty well-versed in this area," Lin Beichen said.
The old charlatan prided himself as the sole heir of Daoism, and he didn't expect this young man to have such a keen interest in Daoism as well, daring even to challenge him. He thought to himself: This kid is asking for trouble, he'll end up crying.
"Alright, I agree to the duel," the charlatan readily agreed.
