"Weiwei, you're not thinking of betting tonight, are you?"
"The new challenger, Du Feng, I don't know how good he is. Don't bet recklessly."
Third Pi was busy with his head down, and the light in the room was dim, so he didn't notice that Du Feng was there. He even told Pi Weiwei and Yuan Cheng not to spend money recklessly. It was not like the way the second generation educated the third generation, but more like the toiling masses who couldn't afford to eat teaching their children to know how to save money.
"Don't worry, Brother Du will definitely win."
"We've raised ten thousand purple crystals for Weiwei. If he wins, it's on him, and if he loses, we'll split it equally. Is that okay?"
Yuan Cheng said this with good intentions. If he wins, it's on his son, and if he loses, we'll split it equally. How nice. But Third Pi was not happy at all. He lowered his head and unhappily made a cold dish. After a while, he came over and put the plate on the table. He stared at Pi Weiwei angrily. He felt that his prodigal son was going to spend money recklessly again. It was not easy for him to open a small tavern, and it was not easy for him to make money. What could he do with such a prodigal son?
"Use the best steel for the blade, and spend the money on cultivation. Don't learn bad habits."
"You …"
He was educating his son when he suddenly felt something was wrong. Why did the person sitting next to Yuan Cheng look a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before? This person should not have come to his small tavern for a drink, but he felt that he was familiar, and he had just seen him.
"Oh, you are that Du Feng."
Third Pi slapped his head, and finally remembered. No wonder he looked so familiar. Wasn't this the challenger in the picture? He was younger than expected, and he was qualified to challenge for the Terrestrial List at such a young age. He was really capable and courageous.
Du Feng was indeed courageous. Some young masters from aristocratic families, even if they got a challenge ticket, did not dare to challenge immediately. Because once on the stage, they would face death. Without three to five years of preparation, they really did not dare to move. It would not be appropriate if they lost their lives.
"Uncle Pi, this junior gives you a toast."
Third Pi was embarrassed, but Du Feng was not embarrassed at all. She stood up naturally and even toasted him with a glass of wine. Without any hesitation, he raised his head and gulped it down.
"Alright, alright, alright. Drink as much as you can. Count it on me for free tonight."
At first, Third Pi did not have much confidence in the new challenger, Du Feng, but after seeing him in person, he changed his mind. To be fearless in the face of danger, this kind of heroic figure had to eat and drink his fill before going up to the arena. The more he drank, the more exciting the fight would be. It would be best if he drank until he was in a stupor and used the other party as a live target to beat up.
Back then, Third Pi's eldest brother, who was also Pi Weiwei's uncle, was such a character. Before a great battle, one had to drink first. The more one drank, the fiercer the battle would be. There was a time when he went up to the arena to compete. Because his opponent was too strong, he lost strength halfway through the fight. He took out a wine gourd from his waist and drank some hard liquor on the spot. Then, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, he forcefully blasted his opponent off the stage. Thus, he was given the nickname Drunken Fist Old Leather.
Speaking of Drunken Fist Old Leather, ever since he left the Thousand Moon Kingdom, he had not returned for a long time.
"Weiyang Continent, what kind of place is that?"
The more Third Pi spoke, the more excited he became. He recounted his eldest brother's glorious achievements in the past. He even mentioned that after he left the Thousand Moon Kingdom, he went to a place called Weiyang Continent. Weiyang Continent was a paradise for human martial artists. Everyone dreamed of going there. However, only the top martial artists had the right to go there, and they also needed the recommendation of the Seven Basaltic Mansions.
The central city of Weiyang Continent was called Cloud City. Legend had it that it was the closest place to the Heavenly Realm. If a martial artist wanted to ascend to the Heavenly Realm, they had to go to Weiyang Continent first. After arriving at Weiyang Continent, they had to find a way to enter Cloud City. In a place like Cloud City, Powang and even Ascension Realm martial artists were everywhere. It was not something ordinary people could imagine.
Cloud City! Hearing these two words, Du Feng's body shook violently. He almost spilled the liquor in his cup.
"What's wrong, nephew? You want to go to Cloud City too?"
"I'm telling you, don't rush. If you don't have the strength of Powang, don't go. You're still young."
Third Brother Pi tried his best to persuade Du Feng, but Du Feng did not listen to him. Who would have thought that there would really be a place called Cloud City? Then, could it be true that he saw his father, the Alchemy Emperor, in his dream, and what he said?
"Uncle Pi, can you tell me more about Cloud City?"
"Sure, let me tell you."
Actually, Third Brother Pi had never been to Weiyang Continent, much less Cloud City. However, because his big brother went to Weiyang Continent, he asked around for relevant information and managed to gather quite a bit of information. Then, under the influence of alcohol, he chatted incessantly with Du Feng.
Du Feng listened very attentively and did not miss a single word. Third Brother Pi must have exaggerated a lot in his words. However, Du Feng did not care at all. As long as it was related to Weiyang Continent and Cloud City, he wanted to know everything.
"Brother Du, drink up. Don't listen to my dad's nonsense. If you really want to know about Weiyang Continent, hurry up and come to Seven Basaltic Mansions. "
"Yes, yes, yes. Seven Basaltic Mansions's Martial Arts Library has all kinds of books. As long as you're good enough, you can even borrow a map of Weiyang Continent. "
Pi Weiwei and Yuan Cheng's words provoked Du Feng quite a bit. What was going on? Seven Basaltic Mansions's Martial Arts Library even had a map of Weiyang Continent? Didn't that mean that once he got the map, he would know how to find Weiyang Continent and enter Cloud City?
"Alright, let's drink till we're drunk tonight."
"Drink!"
"Drink!"
Since he had a specific goal, Du Feng did not need to worry anymore. He drank to his heart's content. Third Brother Pi's self-brewed wine was indeed very strong. Although it looked a bit cloudy, it was very strong and fragrant. The first sip was a bit spicy, but the second sip was spicy with a hint of fragrance. The third sip, the fourth sip … After a whole jar of wine, he burped and overturned with the aroma of wine. It was really satisfying.
"Cousin, it's almost time for the competition."
Murong Mansha had wanted to persuade Du Feng not to drink so much. However, when she remembered that she had already asked for it once, she changed her mind and only reminded him that it was almost time for the competition. No matter how strong one was, one would be disqualified if they delayed the competition.
"What's going on? Why isn't that Du Feng here yet? I bet on him."
"Damn it. Don't tell me he's a coward. What a waste of a challenge ticket."
