While much of Luke 9 has been about the theme of discipleship, Luke 10:1-24 continues to follow that theme. When Jesus enlarged the number of His disciples from 12 to 72 (6 times as many!) and sent them out to represent Him wherever they went, this was a major challenge for each of them. They were to rely on Him, even though He was not physically with them, and yet the result of their witness was not only joy, but also confirmation of His victory over the evil one.
