âYoung master Tang, earlier, you said that you defeated young master Chu Feng before?â At that moment, Tantai Xingâer turned her eyes to Tang Zhenghao.
âHim? Miss Tantai, thatâs impossible. How could someone like him with his Heavenly Immortal-level cultivation possibly be able to defeat young master Chu Feng?â
âAnd here I thought that Tang Zhenghao, as the number one genius of the Tang Heavenly Clan, would be a man of honor. Never would I have expected him to be this shameless.â
âThatâs right. If it wasnât for brother Chu Feng unleashing his strength, I wouldâve definitely been deceived by that Tang Zhenghao earlier.â
At that moment, many of the people present began to mock Tang Zhenghao. Even the six individuals that had followed him in revealed mocking gazes on their faces.
Although they had a pretty good relationship with Tang Zhenghao, they decided, in the face of Tantai Xingâer and Chu Feng, who was even stronger than her, to denounce their relationship with him.
âI really defeated Chu Feng before! I have not lied to you all!â Tang Zhenghao shouted in a very unreconciled manner.
âEnough. You?. How could you, a Heavenly Immortal, be a match for a Martial Immortal? Did you really take us for fools?â
.........
...
Tang Zhenghaoâs words were met with ridicule and looks of contempt from the crowd.
At that moment, Tang Zhenghao felt despair. No matter how he tried to explain himself, it seemed that no one was willing to believe him.
After all, with his cultivation of rank eight Heavenly Immortal, he was truly too powerless before Chu Feng and his rank seven Martial Immortal cultivation.
âBack then, I was indeed defeated by him right outside of my Chu Heavenly Clanâs territory. My defeat was real. Thus, he did not lie,â Right at that moment, Chu Fengâs voice was suddenly heard.
Tang Zhenghao felt very surprised to hear Chu Fengâs voice. He truly had not expected that Chu Feng would publicly acknowledge his past defeat.
After all, that was not glorious to admit.
âBrother Chu Feng, you shouldnât joke around. With his strength, how could he possibly defeat you?â
However, even though Chu Feng had personally admitted to it, the crowd were still unwilling to accept it as the truth.
âThat is the truth. I was indeed defeated by him. I donât feel that thereâs anything wrong with admitting that my skills were inferior to his in the past,â Chu Feng said.
Chu Feng appeared very open-minded. He did not feel that his defeat by Tang Zhenghaoâs hands was humiliating.
In Chu Fengâs opinion, defeat was nothing. Instead, refusing to admit oneâs defeat would be something that was actually humiliating.
âYoung master Chu Feng is straightforward and upright. Truly admirable.â
Tantai Xingâer clapped her hands.
The others present also began to praise Chu Fengâs behavior.
witnessing that scene, Tang Zhenghao felt even more displeased. He pointed at Chu Feng and shouted, âChu Feng, donât you think that I will be grateful to you just because youâve admitted your defeat!â
âI think youâre mistaken. I merely admitted to it because I wanted everyone to know the truth. I had absolutely no intention to win favor from you. Besides, I must warn you. If you do not scram right now, I will make you lose even the strength to scram.â
After he finished saying those words, Chu Feng waved his sleeve, and a burst of wind lifted Tang Zhenghao up.
Like a loose leaf, Tang Zhenghao could only allow himself to be carried away by the wind. In the end, he landed beside the exit and fell ruthlessly to the ground, rolling several hundred meters away before finally being able to stabilize himself. He was left in a truly sorry state.
Tang Zhenghao stood back up. With a furious look on his face, he pointed at Chu Feng and shouted loudly, âChu Feng, donât you be pleased with yourself just yet! Although I, Tang Zhenghao, might not be able to handle you, there are others that will be able to take care of you!â
After he finished saying those words, Tang Zhenghao exited the rat zodiacâs entrance.
After he left, Tang Zhenghao began to shout loudly, âSenior Fox Immortal! Senior Wuming Xingyun! Senior Liangqiu Chengfeng! Senior Long Xuan!â
Tang Zhenghaoâs continuous shouting caught the attention of many people.
However, no one bothered to pay attention to him at all. They merely looked at him like they were watching a show.
When Tang Zhenghao left furiously, Chu Feng knew what he wanted to do.
However, after Tang Zhenghao shouted for so long, not only did he not receive any response from the four Saint-cloak World Spiritists, but the bystanders were also looking at him like he was a fool.
This caused Tang Zhenghao to become even more furious. In enormous rage, he decided to loudly question, âMilords, I know that you all can hear me. Today, I ask of you all. Thereâs a despicable man that has mixed his way into this match; are you all going to bother with that or not?â
âWho mixed their way in here?â Finally, Queen Mother Fox Immortal appeared.
âSenior Fox Immortal, someone snuck in here without participating in the evaluation,â Tang Zhenghao immediately restrained himself upon seeing Queen Mother Fox Immortal.
âIâm asking you who it is that mixed their way in here?â Queen Mother Fox Immortalâs attitude was very stern.
âChu Heavenly Clan, Chu Xuanyuanâs son, Chu Feng!â
âHe is currently inside that entrance!â
Tang Zhenghao pointed to the rat zodiacâs entrance and spoke loudly.
âWhat? Chu Xuanyuanâs son? Didnât he already die?â
Hearing âChu Xuanyuanâs son,â the expressions of many people changed.
Even though they did not know of Chu Feng, they had all heard of Chu Xuanyuanâs son before.
âWho told you that Chu Feng had mixed his way in here? He was clearly invited here by us,â Queen Mother Fox Immortal said.
âAh?â Hearing those words, Tang Zhenghao and the crowd were all astonished.
Even the Ancestral Martial Decastars had to come here on their own. At the very most, they didnât have to go through the evaluation, and received some preferential treatment. However, they were not invited.
Yet, Chu Feng was actually invited?. How enormous of a face did he possess?!!!
âSenior, are... are you telling the truth?â Tang Zhenghao had an awkward expression.
âWhy would I lie?â
âI am in charge of this place. Without my permission, who could possibly enter?â Queen Mother Fox Immortal asked coldly.
âTang Zhenghao, let me give you some words of advice. What you need to do is to think of a way to enter the grand formation, and not try to denounce others.â
âGo and put your heart where it should belong. Otherwise... even if youâre one of the Ancestral Martial Decastars, I will still be able to kick you out of here at any time.â
Queen Mother Fox Immortal stared fiercely at Tang Zhenghao. Then, she waved her sleeve and disappeared.
At that moment, Tang Zhenghao stood where he was, embarrassed and at a complete loss.
Embarrassed. He was feeling extremely embarrassed. His face had turned deep red.
At that moment, the gazes that were looking at him were filled with ridicule.
Actually, even he himself knew very well that running out there to expose Chu Feng after being defeated by him was not what an upright man of honor should do.
Yet, he did exactly that. Furthermore, the person he tried to expose was someone invited by the four great Saint-cloak World Spiritists.
At that moment, even he himself felt that he was a joke, and should not stay there...
âYoung master Chu Feng, there are only a limited numbers of entrances to the grand formation. Thus, I will be taking my leave first. If you have time in the future, might you be willing to come to our Tantai Heavenly Clan to have a chat?â Tantai Xingâer asked.
âOf course,â Chu Feng replied.
âWoosh~~~â
With a wave of Tantai Xingâerâs sleeve, an invitation letter flew toward Chu Feng.
âYoung master Chu Feng, you must do as you promised,â Tantai Xingâer smiled sweely. Then, she turned around and began to leave.
Seeing that, the bystanders also began to bid their farewells, and began to leave.
At that moment, only Chu Feng and Wuma Shengjie remained
âIt would appear that your father possesses an extraordinary status in your heart,â Wuma Shengjie said.
âWhy do you say that?â Chu Feng asked.
âYou were suddenly enraged when Tang Zhenghao said that you were unqualified to be Chu Xuanyuanâs son earlier. If you didnât care about your father greatly, why would you become so furious? He must be the pride of your heart, the target that you wish to pursue, no?â Wuma Shengjie asked.
