"How about this? You can choose not to win the championship, but you must participate."
In the end, Canyang gave a suggestion. Du Feng could choose not to win the championship. That way, he wouldn't have to marry into someone else's family. However, he could still participate as usual and fight against the Sky Thearch and the Shangguan family many times. It would be best if he could cripple their Cultivation. In this way, he could help the disciples of the Qing Thearch and the Yan Thearch clear the obstacles and weaken their opponents.
"Hmm, I can consider this."
Du Feng felt that it made sense. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't be able to fight against the Sky Thearch, Thearch Le, and the Shangguan family in the Sky Palace. However, it was different in the arena. Fists and legs didn't have eyes in the arena, and neither did weapons. Don't blame me if I kill you.
This was what Du Feng and the others were planning. The Shangguan family was no exception.
"Do you think that Du kid can participate this time? I want to kill him personally."
"Not necessarily. I don't think that kid dares to come."
Among the disciples of the Shangguan family, some felt that Du Feng would definitely participate in the competition. Because he was good friends with Canyang and Fu Xi, they would participate together. Some also felt that Du Feng probably didn't have the guts to participate in the joust for a spouse event without learning from the Five Emperors of the Heavenly Court.
"He's just a country bumpkin, and he wants to marry the Yellow Emperor's daughter? What a fool's dream."
"Don't talk nonsense. You have to know that he married that person...."
"Uh... I misspoke!"
For some reason, the topic of Shangguan Yun was taboo. Her identity was very mysterious. Even the Third Revolution Celestial Emperor in the family didn't say anything about it. But for some reason, as long as it was something that Shangguan Yun said, the people in the family would try their best to do it.
Just like that, Du Feng, Canyang, and Fu Xi all signed up. Canyang and Fu Xi's senior brothers, as long as they met the requirements, also signed up. As for those who were already married, they were regretting it now. Even if they divorced their wives, they wouldn't be able to fulfill the conditions of the Yellow Emperor's daughter's joust for a spouse.
"Friend, we meet again."
At the registration place, Du Feng met a person. This person was the martial artist who had passed by Canyang's door that day. He was also the Senior Brother of Yan Di's disciple, Fu Xi. But because of Du Feng's warning, he successfully avoided the shadow killer's attack, and the two of them officially met.
"Yeah, you're coming too."
Du Feng looked at the man. With his Cultivation and qualifications, he should have had a family in the Heavenly Palace long ago. Unexpectedly, he was still single.
"I'm not interested in the Yellow Emperor's daughter. I just want to take this opportunity to beat them up."
This Senior Brother of Fu Xi was quite an interesting character. He had signed up for this joust for a spouse just so that he could teach the disciple of the Celestial Thearch a lesson. In fact, the two sides had long disliked each other, and the incident with the Shadow Assassin happened to be the fuse.
The Celestial Thearch had indeed investigated the matter of the Shadow Assassin attacking the Flame Emperor's disciple. He also didn't understand why the Shadow Assassin would attack the Flame Emperor's disciple without his command. But since it had already happened, he definitely couldn't admit defeat.
In fact, even Du Feng didn't expect that he wasn't the only one who had facilitated this matter. There was also a woman. That was the female assassin of the Drunken Immortal Brothel, Luluo's mother. She knew that there was a Shadow Assassin monitoring Du Feng in front of Canyang's door, and through her connections, she arranged a meeting between the Flame Emperor's disciple and another person.
According to the agreed time, the two of them passed by Canyang's door, creating an opportunity for Du Feng.
Du Feng was someone who was very good at seizing opportunities. He immediately caused trouble and provoked a fight between the Celestial Thearch and the Flame Emperor. This joust for a spouse for the Yellow Emperor's daughter seemed to have added fuel to the fire, or in other words, provided a very good platform for them.
Under normal circumstances, if the two wanted to fight, they would have to do it outside of the Heavenly Palace. But now, they could fight as they pleased in the arena. Other than spiritual pets and ghost servants, weapons and tools could be used as they pleased.
In other words, not only could they cripple the opponent, but they could also directly kill him. As long as the opponent didn't admit defeat, the competition wouldn't stop.
For contestants who had a master, it wouldn't be easy for them to die. This was because if the master saw that things weren't going well, they could help to stop the competition from outside the arena. Of course, the master's words had to be strong enough, or the competition wouldn't stop. Therefore, Canyang and Fu Xi didn't have much of a problem. Their masters were the Azure Thearch and the Flame Emperor.
Unless their masters wanted to see them die, or things happened too suddenly, they could be saved.
But for contestants who didn't have a master, they would be at a disadvantage if they fought against a contestant like Du Feng. When he wanted to kill the opponent, the opponent had a master to protect him. But when the opponent wanted to kill him, there was no one to help stop him.
Although stopping the competition meant admitting defeat, it also meant saving his life. Although Canyang and Fu Xi wanted to help, their masters wouldn't help Du Feng.
Although some contestants also had masters, their masters were just ordinary Immortal Emperors, and their words didn't carry enough weight. Even if they stopped the competition, the organizers might not give them face. Therefore, their lives weren't guaranteed, and they could only fight on their own.
"Master, what are you going to do?"
The male ghost cultivator of the Blossoming Flowers City was a little worried about Du Feng because Du Feng hadn't officially cultivated the Immortal Lord cultivation technique, sword art, and the like except for learning Canyang's sword energy. He didn't have a master now, and he couldn't buy a good cultivation technique of this level from the shops.
Du Feng knew a powerful cultivation technique, the Mahakala Technique, but it was a meditation cultivation technique, and he didn't dare to use it in the Heavenly Realm. If he became a meditation cultivator, a pair of big wings would grow on his back, and his fingernails would grow long. He wouldn't even need to compete, and he would be destroyed by the five emperors of the Heavenly Court.
"It's okay, he still has an innate combat skill. If he uses it well, he can still win."
Du Tulong wasn't worried. After all, he could help Du Feng. Martial artists of this level were always in the state of battle beast fusion, and combat skills were the same as sword arts, they could be used at any time. Du Feng's Phoenix Clan and Dragons cultivation techniques could be used as innate combat skills, and it wasn't against the rules here.
There were also some innate combat skills, such as the spider monster's web. Although the lethality wasn't great, and it didn't look like much. But if used properly, it could restrict the opponent's movement. Coupled with the sharp Dragon Riding Sword, it would definitely be able to defeat the opponent.
"Yes, I think so too."
