"Are you sure you want to fight with me? The disciples are all watching."
Du Feng actually wanted to find a chance to teach Second Elder a lesson because this guy always looked at the Queen of the Extreme North with malicious eyes. But before he started, he had to say the ugly words first. Swords have no eyes. If they really fought and one of them got hurt, the Sect Leader and Supreme Elders couldn't blame them.
"Life and death are up to fate. Let's go to the arena."
Second Elder was going all out. It was originally just a sparring session but he insisted on going to the arena. Once on the arena, it wouldn't be as simple as a sparring session. According to the rules of Yu Xian Sect, once on the arena, it would be a life and death battle. No matter who lost, the others couldn't take revenge for him.
Just as the Sect Leader was about to stop this, he heard Du Feng say, "Alright, let's go. Who's afraid of who?"
Oh no, it was too late to stop it. As long as both sides made the agreement to fight, even the Sect Leader couldn't change it unless they cancelled it voluntarily. Plus, both sides had to agree to cancel it successfully. Looking at the situation, Second Elder and Du Feng wouldn't cancel it.
"There's no time like the present. Let's do it today."
"Alright, let's meet on the arena in an hour."
Why did Du Feng agree to fight in an hour instead of immediately? It was because he had been busy forging for the past few days. Both his True Essence and physical strength had been consumed. He needed an hour to adjust his state of mind. Also, his Dragon Riding Sword had been upgraded to a Middle Grade Innate Magic Weapon after swallowing a large amount of Geng Essence. He needed some time to adapt.
Innate Magic Weapons were more advanced than magic weapons. The way True Essence worked was different. In theory, Innate Magic Weapons were weapons used by Golden Celestial Realm warriors. Du Feng used Heaven Celestial Realm Level 7 Cultivation, but he needed to familiarize himself with it.
Just like that, Du Feng returned to his room and started to adjust his state of mind. At this time, the news of him and Second Elder's duel had spread throughout Yu Xian Sect. Whether it was the inner sect disciples or the outer sect disciples, all of them were very concerned about this matter.
"Hahaha, I heard that there will be a good show to watch."
Even the Third Elder, who had been wandering outside, hurriedly rushed back from the red-light district after hearing the news. He had to watch the duel between Du Feng and the Second Elder. No matter which one of them died, he would be overjoyed.
Du Feng had been displeased with him from the very beginning. As for the Second Elder, he had always been riding on his head. In any case, none of them were good people.
"Do we really have to do this?"
The Fourth Elder, Hong Xiuzhen, was still worried. She certainly didn't want Du Feng to lose, but she also didn't want the Second Elder to be killed. After all, Second Elder had been in the Yu Xian Sect for so many years and had taught many disciples. If he died, it would be a great loss to the sect.
It would be best if there was no duel. If there was no other way, he could just give the position of Elder to Du Feng. There was no need to use such a method to decide.
"It can't be changed. Let's just wait and see."
The Great Elder sighed. He was a person who let fate take its course. It was time for the Second Elder to change his arrogant temper. He believed that with the Sect Leader and several Supreme Elders around, they wouldn't really let them die. After all, they were experts in the Perfected Golden Immortal Realm. It shouldn't be difficult for them to stop the actions of two Heaven Immortal Realm martial artists.
"Brother Du, congratulations on your promotion."
The Sword Emperor wasn't worried at all when he saw that Du Feng was going to duel. He even congratulated him in advance.
"What's there to congratulate? We'll be leaving in a few days."
Because of the delay in forging, there were only three days left before boarding the ship. After today, there would only be two days left. When Du Feng returned from the Southern Heaven Realm, he didn't know when it would be. He became an Elder purely to challenge two more times in the Sword Pagoda and exchange for more things.
"You know that you're leaving, but you still want to duel with others. You're too irresponsible, hmph!"
The Koi Boy was fuming and wanted to quarrel with Du Feng again. He didn't want to stay in the Yu Immortal Sect. He just wanted to hurry to the Southern Heaven Realm and see if anything had happened to the Blue Jade Boy. If Du Feng lost the duel here, he would be dead. He and the Sword Emperor would be trapped in the small world of the necklace and wouldn't be able to go to the Southern Heaven Realm.
"Don't worry, it won't delay the journey."
Du Feng knew very well that he couldn't lose this time and wouldn't be injured, so it wouldn't delay the trip to the Southern Heaven Realm. Not to mention the Second Elder's Cultivation at the peak of the ninth level of the Heaven Immortal Realm, even if he broke through to the Golden Immortal Realm, he would still be able to fight.
So after an hour, he came out of his room and went straight to the duel arena. This so-called Duel Arena was actually a small area that had been carved out of the training grounds. One of the arenas was used for duels. The entire arena was dyed red, representing the color of blood. It meant that as long as one entered this arena, they would definitely bleed.
"Have the two of you thought it through? It's not too late to back out now."
The Vice Sect Leader could no longer decide on this matter, so the Sect Leader personally presided over it. He once again asked the Second Elder and Du Feng, hoping that they would change their minds at the last minute.
"I won't go back on my word, I definitely won't go back on my word."
The Second Elder's reply was resolute and decisive. He had wanted to teach that brat Du Feng a lesson for a long time. In the past, he was an elder and Du Feng was a disciple, so he couldn't challenge him fairly. Now that he finally had the chance to duel, how could he miss it?
"Don't be long-winded, go on stage."
It was impossible for Du Feng to go back on his word, so he used his actions to express it. He directly jumped onto the duel arena and hooked his finger at the Second Elder.
"You're courting death!"
The Second Elder's lungs were about to explode from anger. One must know that Du Feng was only a disciple of the Fourth Elder in the past. Even the Fourth Elder Hong Xiuzhen wasn't his match, so what could a disciple do? But he didn't expect that this disciple would actually want to be the Fifth Elder now and even dare to duel with him.
"Don't speak too early. It's not certain who will die yet."
Du Feng looked at the Second Elder with a grin. He wasn't angry at all. Only those who fell from a high and mighty position would be angry. For someone like him who climbed from a disciple to a hall master and then to an elder, it was impossible for him to be angry.
"Since that's the case, let's begin."
Since they were already on the duel arena, they couldn't cancel it anymore. The Sect Leader might as well announce the start of the duel.
Two rays of murderous light burst out of the Second Elder's eyes, and the treasured sword in his hand was twisted into a flower. The aura of his entire body exploded, and he charged towards Du Feng. What he used was actually the number one Heaven Immortal in the Immortal Secret Pavilion, the Star Chasing Sword Art. This guy had been an elder for so long, it seemed like he had accumulated a lot of contribution points.
