"Star City's City Lord, it seems like you've schemed for nothing this time. You should just obediently be at the bottom!"
Lin Hongfeng said mercilessly. After all, when the Star City's City Lord chose him to be a pushover, both sides had already shed all pretense of cordiality.
If he lost, then the Star City's City Lord's words would be even more unpleasant.
However, after defeating the Monkey King and the Star City's City Lord, the situation didn't change for the better for Lin Hongfeng. After all, in everyone's eyes, apart from Star City, which had always been at the bottom, Tianhe Castle was still the weakest.
Stellarsky City's share was the least, and even if Jiang Yi defeated Stellarsky City, he wouldn't be able to obtain any more shares. However, Lin Hongfeng was different. Stellarsky City was originally ranked in the middle. If Jiang Yi defeated Stellarsky City, he would be able to replace Stellarsky City's ranking and obtain a higher share.
Therefore, everyone chose to challenge Lin Hongfeng. Lin Hongfeng's cultivation was only at the early stage of the Theurgy Realm. Those who came to challenge him were all veteran Theurgy Realm cultivators. Unlike the Monkey King, whose cultivation had gone awry, their strength was naturally above Lin Hongfeng's.
Only once did Lin Hongfeng reach a draw with the other party. However, the other party's ranking was still below theirs. Even if they defeated the other party, they wouldn't be able to obtain a higher share.
Tianhe Castle, which was weak but had a good ranking, was naturally a delicious cake in many people's eyes.
With a glance, Lin Hongfeng could tell that most of those experts were much stronger than him. They weren't people he could deal with at all.
Therefore, he simply admitted defeat. As he admitted defeat, his ranking continued to drop, and very soon, he had fallen into the bottom three.
At this point, no one challenged Lin Hongfeng because it was no longer necessary. It was a waste of time and energy.
Even though there were people who had a grudge against Lin Hongfeng and wanted to take the opportunity to cripple him, Lin Hongfeng looked like he would rather die than make a move and directly admitted defeat.
Due to the existence of the rules, they could not do anything!
After all, this rule was set by everyone, so it was impossible to break it blatantly.
Star City's City Lord fiercely looked at Lin Hongfeng. When he saw that Lin Hongfeng's ranking had also plummeted, he was delighted.
Only Lin Hongfeng's face was ashen as he looked at the experts fighting on the stage. These people treated him like a soft persimmon, and after they finished using him, they kicked him away. His ranking continued to fall, and his share also continued to decrease. Adding up all the benefits he had lost, he felt as though his heart was bleeding.
But no matter how angry he was, it was useless. No one would care about them.
"When is Mr. Chu coming back?" Lin Hongfeng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked his daughter, Lin Chenxi.
"I don't know either. Master didn't say where he went. He only said that he went out for a walk!"
A bitter smile appeared on Lin Chenxi's pretty face. At this time, it could be said to be the most critical moment, but her master was nowhere to be seen.
"Hao Ren, immediately send someone to look for Mr. Chu. Be careful not to alert the others!" Lin Hongfeng ordered.
"Understood!"
Lin Ho-jen quickly turned around and left the stage.
Lin Hongfeng's face was ashen. His original estimation was still too optimistic. He thought that with his strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to maintain his current share. Who knew that this was not the case at all.
His strength had just stepped into the Transcendent Realm. It wasn't difficult for him to defeat the Monkey King, but he was far from being able to face others.
Originally, he only wanted Chu Yunfan to hold the line for him. But now, it seemed that Chu Yunfan would have to take action. When he thought of Chu Yunfan's demon-like figure, he suddenly felt that there was hope. These people might be strong, but compared to Chu Yunfan, they were too far away.
What Innate Realm? What Transcendent Realm? He had seen it with his own eyes. Chu Yunfan had killed them with a single slap. That kind of terrifying power left a deep impression in his heart.
He believed that as long as Chu Yunfan appeared, he would be able to completely reverse the situation this time.
Originally, he didn't want to be in the limelight too much. After losing the protection of the Flying Flower Sect, Tianhe Castle could be said to have entered an unprecedented period of decline. Moreover, Chu Yunfan couldn't stay in Tianhe Castle forever.
He just wanted to protect his share. Everything else would have to wait until his cultivation base improved.
But now, these people were treating him like a soft persimmon, not giving him a way out at all. Each of them wanted to step on him to advance.
"Then don't blame me for being rude. Just you wait!"
"When Mr. Chu comes back, you will all regret it!"
At this time, no one noticed Lin Hongfeng's expression as they all looked at the arena.
Various Transcendent Realm experts took turns to enter the arena. This made the audience below the arena extremely excited. After all, not everyone had the chance to see a battle between Transcendent Realm experts.
Finally, after many experts took turns to fight, it was finally time for the main event of the conference. It was the battle between Tai Ning City and Camel Mountain City that would decide the outcome of the conference.
Next to the Castellan of Tai Ning Castle, a skinny old man walked down and said, "I've been watching for a long time. It's time to loosen up my bones!"
The old man's appearance made the atmosphere in the arena stagnate. Some of the weaker experts didn't even consider fighting because this old man was the great expert who had always been the number one expert in Tai Ning Castle, Xu Long.
In the nearby cities, there was no one who didn't know about him.
Seeing that no one dared to step forward, Xu Long's face showed a satisfied smile. This kind of awe-inspiring reputation was achieved through countless battles.
Recently, no one dared to challenge his authority. The other cities still needed to compete for positions and rankings, but Tai Ning Castle's number one position had been recognized by almost everyone.
Zhou Buyi stepped forward and said, "Since no one dares to challenge us, then we'll follow the usual practice. This time, Tai Ning Castle will take first place. According to the rules, the spiritual vein will continue to be managed by Tai Ning Castle!"
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, at this moment, the Castellan of Tuoshan Castle, Lu Shuzhou, opened his mouth.
Everyone held their breaths. Everyone knew that the real collision was about to begin.
"What? Castellan Lu, do you have any objection to this result? "Zhou Buyi said.
"Castellan Zhou, in the past, Tai Ning Castle has been managing the spiritual vein because Tai Ning Castle is the strongest. I have no objection to this. However, the situation is different this year. Since the quota will be divided according to strength, I think Tuoshan Castle should also be qualified to manage the spiritual vein!" Lu Shuzhou said directly.
Facing Zhou Buyi's sharp gaze, Lu Shuzhou didn't give in.
