"Third Brother, what do you think of these two? Do you want to take them in?"
The battle between the Sword Emperor and Du Feng attracted more and more spectators. Many people didn't watch the other battles and only watched the two of them. Not only the spectators were attracted, but the organizers were also attracted. The two people who were discussing were Fu Xi's second and third uncles. Although they weren't biological uncles, they were both from the Fu Family.
One of them was at the third stage of the Perfected Golden Celestial Stage, while the other was at the second stage of the Perfected Golden Celestial Stage. Du Feng and the Sword Emperor had suppressed their Cultivation to the first stage of the Golden Celestial Stage, so from their point of view, it looked like two juniors competing.
The elders of the Fu Family were all quite high in Cultivation. After all, they had such good resources. Only Fu Xi and Fu Yan, the father and son from the Lower Realm, had a Cultivation that was a whole stage lower than them.
Fu Xi's generation of disciples were mostly at the Golden Celestial Stage Cultivation. Some of them were talented, and were already at the eighth, ninth, or even the peak of the ninth stage. And in Fu Yan's generation, a small portion was at the peak of the ninth stage of the Golden Celestial Stage, and the rest were at the Perfected Golden Celestial Stage.
It was also because of this that they were looked down upon by the Fu Family in the Heaven Realm. If Fu Xi couldn't break through to the Golden Celestial Stage before entering the Mystic Realm, not only would he be unlucky, but even Fu Yan would be unlucky. Although Fu Yan was at the Golden Celestial Stage Cultivation, his seniority was too high, and he wasn't qualified to participate in the Mystic Realm Trial. This meant that neither of the father and son could bring benefits to the Fu Family, and they would definitely be ostracized.
"This won't do. Their cultivation bases are too low."
Fu Xi's third uncle also felt that Du Feng and the Sword Emperor weren't strong enough, but their strength was compared to the martial artists of the same stage. If they were the martial artists outside, they might be able to kill the enemies of a higher stage. But compared to the disciples of the Fu Clan, their combat power was still not strong enough.
After all, the Fu Family disciples who would be entering the mystic realm for the trial were all at Golden Immortal Stage Level Eight or Nine. Moreover, each of them was far stronger than their peers. There were a few particularly outstanding ones who could already contend with Perfected Golden Celestial Stage martial artists.
"It's a pity that we discovered it too late. These two people can still serve our Fu Family if we nurture them."
Fu Xi's second uncle wanted to take Du Feng and Sword Emperor as servants of the Fu Clan and make them work like slaves for the Fu Clan's young masters. However, what they didn't know was that Du Feng and the Sword Emperor wanted to enter the secret realm in a year's time and kill the Fu Clan's young master.
Because there were too many people observing Du Feng and the Sword Emperor, the two of them didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, they used their sword arts to fight to their heart's content. This fight actually went on for a full ten hours, reaching the maximum amount of time stipulated by the furnace management.
Both of them displayed their sword moves to their heart's content, and they also used a lot of strength. Everyone was so engrossed in watching that they didn't realize that time had passed so quickly. When the ten hour time limit was up, everyone came to a realization. Oh no, they were going to lose money.
Because there were rules in gambling. If there was a situation where the two of them tied, all the money would belong to the banker. That old gambler was the one who started the bet, so he was the banker.
"Hahaha, thank you everyone for your support. I won't be courteous then."
Over ten thousand Stage Two Immortal Stones were taken away by the old gambler just like that. Not to mention those who had placed their bets, even Du Feng was envious of them. The two of us fought painstakingly on the stage for ten hours, and you earned over ten thousand in one go. Isn't that a little too satisfying?
"No, we object!"
"Right, I object too. The two of them are faking it."
When everyone saw that they had lost money, they couldn't do it anymore. How could it be a draw after fighting for ten hours? The two of them were definitely faking it.
"Whoever said it was faking it, whoever said it should go up and try."
"Touch your conscience and tell me if the fight just now was exciting or not. Who dared to receive one or two moves?"
The old gambler wasn't that easy to scam. He knew that everyone wasn't convinced that they had lost. But to say that it was faking it was bullsh * t. The attacks from Du Feng and the Sword Emperor just now were enough to insta-kill all the Golden Celestial Realm martial artists. If it was really faking it, no one would have used so much strength.
Uh … Hearing this, Du Feng felt embarrassed. He and the Sword Emperor did fight for real because only by fighting for real could he master the Sword Art. But there was a problem, which was that the two of them suppressed their Cultivation. They used all their moves, but they hid 90% of their True Essence.
Fortunately, the two of them suppressed their cultivation to compete. Otherwise, they would have been targeted by the elders of the Fu Clan. Such two good seedlings, if they were to be servants of the Fu Family, it would be a good choice.
"You're a fast learner."
After half a day of intense fighting, Du Feng had grasped quite a bit of the new Sword Art. Of course, the Sword Emperor's cooperation with him was also very useful. What the old man said was right. Two people fighting was indeed faster than one person training bitterly.
"Hehe, you've worked hard, I'll treat you tonight."
Du Feng had become a lot bolder over the past year. Just like that, he went to a high-class restaurant with the Sword Emperor and ate to his heart's content. What was interesting was that this restaurant was owned by the Fu Family. More accurately, this restaurant was run by Fu Li's mother and uncle. And this Fu Li was one of Fu Xi's main opponents.
Excluding the fact that Fu Xi was under house arrest, Hearthstone City's security was quite good. The disguised Du Feng and the Sword Emperor ate and drank to their heart's content, spending money lavishly, but they didn't get into any trouble. Actually, the two of them had already gained some fame in today's duel.
Some people who wanted to find fault with them shrank back after hearing about their strength. Even those Golden Immortal Stage Level 5 or 6 warriors didn't dare to provoke them. Even though Du Feng and the Sword Emperor had suppressed their Cultivation to Golden Immortal Stage Level 1, they were still very powerful.
Du Feng and Jian Huang came out of the restaurant after eating and drinking. Not long after they walked out, they met an old man.
"Two warriors, can I have a word with you?"
This person was acting mysteriously, causing Du Feng to be confused. He wondered what was going on. Could it be that this person knew him? He was Old Mister Linghu in disguise, but he didn't look like him.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Fu Kangren, from this city."
Fu Kangren introduced himself and smiled confidently. Just from his surname, it was obvious that he was from the Fu Family. As long as one was from the Fu Family, they would have a certain status in Hearthstone City. But what he didn't expect was that both Du Feng and the Sword Emperor looked at him. They didn't have any intention of flattering him.
"Ah, what do you want? If not, we'll be leaving."
