"Shall we split the remaining ten Lake Eyes?"
Everyone frowned.
This was especially so for Feng shi, Luo shi, and the others. Their complexions were awful.
Under normal circumstances, they should have been the ones to enjoy the privilege of a single Lake Eye. However, if they were to split the Lake Eyes, it would be impossible for them to do so for three days.
However, there was nothing they could do. Wu Zhen and the Sixth Princess were Grade 2 students from the Master Teacher Academy. No matter what, they couldn't allow the two of them to occupy a Lake Eye.
Putting everything aside, even if the Sixth Princess was willing to share a Lake Eye... who would dare to go over?
To blaspheme the princess of Hongyuan Empire, a 5-star master teacher... unless they were tired of living.
"Un, I apologize for this matter. I'll leave the distribution of the five Lake Eyes to you all!"
Ye Qian said apologetically. "I have no objections as long as you all decide!"
"We decide? Alright then! " Luo Zhao hesitated for a moment before nodding his head. "How about this, I'll make a suggestion. Other than the crown prince, there's another master teacher in the capital. He and Hongfeng Empire will share two Lake Eyes, and our Fengyuan, Qianfeng, and Zhuyue will share three!"
"Indeed, Hongfeng Empire has won. We admit that it's fair for us to share two Lake Eyes!" Chen Yue and Feng Yu's eyes lit up.
If they could take down three Lake Eyes and use one each, the top three would get a day each. It wouldn't be a loss.
"No way!"
Hong shi's eyebrows shot up.
In the previous duel, the other party had lost three slots. In truth, out of the three powers, only four people were qualified to enter the Cleansing Lake. Wouldn't three Lake Eyes be much better than two Lakes for the four of them?
If that was the case, what was the point of the duel?
You must be joking!
"What do you want then?"
Luo Zhao frowned.
"We want two Lake Eyes! As for the remaining three, we'll split them with the master teacher in the capital! "
Hong Shi said.
"Two? Dream on! "Feng Yu and Chen Yue harrumphed.
If Hongfeng Empire were to use up two Lake Eyes for three people, even if they didn't take into account the three slots they lost, it would still be equivalent to seven people using three Lake Eyes. How could they agree to it?
"I disagree as well!" Luo Zhao shook his head.
"Disagree? In that case, let's have another battle to decide. Everyone has taken the medicinal liquid anyway, and their injuries are almost healed! "
Hong Shi flicked his sleeves and stood up.
After winning a match, he was full of confidence, and his entire mental state was abnormally excited.
"Fight?"
The lips of Luo Zhao and the rest twitched.
Fight my ass! Besides, his injuries were almost healed? How can you tell that our injuries have healed?
You can walk without any injuries, but we're still limping. We can't even win when we're in perfect condition, let alone now!
"What? Don't dare? Don't find excuses! Each of you used two cups of medicinal wine, and I only used one. Although it looks like my condition is better on the surface, in reality, the difference is not that big! "
Hong Shi lifted his eyelids.
"Not big my ass!"
Luo Zhao and the rest were speechless.
You can walk as if you're flying, and you're completely fine. We can't even sit properly now, and we're just short of a bed to lie down on. You're saying that the difference isn't that big? You really have the nerve to say that …
"So be it. However, it's not us. We've just fought a match, and there's no point in continuing. Why don't we let them do it!"
Gritting his teeth, Chen Yue pointed to the few people beside him.
"That's right. We've already fought, and we won't be able to solve the problem even if we continue. Why don't we let them do it themselves? It's their problem whether they win or lose!"
Luo Zhao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly nodded his head. "If we win, we'll go according to my plan. If we lose, we'll go according to your plan!"
"No! I've already said it before. You guys have consumed the Consonant Spirit Pill, so it's unfair for you to compete with my men! "
Seeing that the other party was still insistent on having Zhang Shi and the others compete, Hong Shi hurriedly waved his hands.
Even the strongest cultivator on their side was a cultivation realm weaker than the other party. How could they possibly compete?
If they were to fight, they would surely lose.
"The Consonant Spirit Pill is only available in the capital. Even our Vassal States don't have it, so this is fair. If your men didn't consume it, you can only blame yourself for being unprepared. Who else can you blame?"
Feng Yu harrumphed. "Do you dare to compete or not? If you don't dare to compete, we'll just have to get the agreement of the three of us. There's no need for you to make a decision! "
"That's right. Out of the four Vassal States, we just have to agree to three of them. Otherwise, we won't be able to come to a conclusion even if we continue arguing! If you don't dare to, just admit defeat! "Luo Zhao hurriedly said.
The three of them had already made up their minds. They would never fight with Hong Shi.
It didn't matter to them how they fought.
The men they had brought with them had all consumed the Consonant Spirit Pill, and their cultivation was far superior to the other party's.
"You all …"
Seeing that the three of them were working together to force him to admit defeat, Hong Shi's breathing hastened. Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Xuan interrupted him once more.
"Fine, let's compete then. However … it's too troublesome to compete with three people!"
"Troublesome?"
Seeing that it was this fellow again, Feng Yu and Luo Zhao clenched their jaws and narrowed their eyes. "What do you think we should do then?"
"It's very simple. I'll fight against all nine of you. You can come at me at the same time or one by one. As long as I lose, our Hongfeng Empire will give all of our slots to you … If you lose, you'll give all of your slots to me.
With a faint smile, Zhang Xuan turned to Feng Yu and Luo Zhao.
"One against nine?"
"Is this fellow joking?"
"Indeed! A mere Transcendent Mortal 4-dan wants to challenge all nine of us Consonant Spirit realm cultivators at once? Dream on! "
…
A huge commotion broke out in the room.
To be able to emerge as the top three in the Master Teacher Tournament, every single one of them was a genius of the heavens. To be mocked by someone whose cultivation was several cultivation realms lower than theirs was intolerable!
"Luo shi, let me teach that arrogant brat a lesson. I've long found him an eyesore!"
With a loud bellow, a young man stood up. A powerful aura flowed from his body — he was a Consonant Spirit realm advanced stage expert!
Even though all nine of his opponents had consumed the Consonant Spirit Pill, he could still be considered as one of the top experts in the Master Teacher Tournament.
"Feng shi, I'll go as well. That fellow has caused you so much trouble. If I don't make him kneel down and apologize, I'm not worthy of being a citizen of Fengyuan Empire!"
A young man behind Feng shi stood up as well.
As soon as the duo stood up, the crowd behind Feng shi, Luo shi, and Chen shi couldn't hold themselves back any longer. They glared at Zhang Xuan furiously, as though they wanted to tear him apart and eat him alive.
"Are you sure that you want to compete with him?"
Seeing the indignant faces of the crowd, Luo shi couldn't help but ask.
"That's right!"
"That fellow has no respect for his seniors! We must teach him a lesson!"
The crowd bellowed.
Very few people knew that Feng shi had been roared down from the sky by that fellow, but everyone had seen how he had made things difficult for Luo shi previously.
In fact, it was his idea to have Hong Shi fight with the other three. Yet, he still dared to boast so shamelessly. This was unforgivable!
"This …"
Luo shi turned to Feng shi and Chen shi.
This was a grave matter, so he didn't dare to make a decision on his own.
After all, none of them thought that Hong Shi would be able to defeat the three of them. Yet … he actually managed to leave them helpless.
That fellow might seem to be the weakest among them, but what if he had some tricks up his sleeves?
"You don't dare? It's fine if you don't dare … If only you knew, you wouldn't have dared to do so! Master teacher? Genius? Pui! "
Before Feng shi and Chen shi could say anything, the young man before them shook his head in disappointment.
"You …"
Luo shi and the others exploded.
Honestly speaking, this fellow was simply too despicable!
Especially the expression on his face previously. It was blatant mockery.
"Fine, let's compete then! However, let me confirm once more. Do you have the authority to make the decision for the bet? "
Gritting his teeth, Luo Zhao asked savagely.
"If I lose, the slot for Hongfeng Empire will belong to you. If you lose, the remaining slots will belong to me. I have the authority to make the decision!" Zhang Xuan said calmly.
"Alright, it's good that you have the authority to make the decision!"
Luo Zhao's eyebrows shot up, and he beckoned, "Li Xiulian!"
"Luo shi!"
The Consonant Spirit realm advanced stage young man who had been the first to clamor stepped forward.
The champion of the Qianfeng Empire Master Teacher Tournament, Li Xiulian gongzi.
Clenching his fists tightly, Luo Zhao bellowed, "Go up and teach him a lesson. Beat him up until he understands the immensity of the world!"
Usually, in a duel between master teachers, regardless of how angry the other party was, they would instruct the other party to hold back. Yet, Luo Zhao had instructed them to beat him up.
"Don't worry, Luo shi! I'll let him know the difference between Clarifying Turbidity realm and Consonant Spirit realm! "
Harrumphing coldly, Xiulian gongzi walked into the room and beckoned to Zhang Xuan. "Weren't you arrogant just a moment ago? Come, let me see if your fighting prowess is as formidable as your mouth! "
"Zhang Shi … You must be careful!"
Hong Shi couldn't help but warn.
Even though he was confident in Zhang Shi's strength, the other party was a Consonant Spirit realm advanced stage expert. The gap between the two of them was simply too huge.
If he were to lose, he would lose all of the slots, and all of his previous efforts would be for naught.
Luo Xuan and Bi Jianghai frowned deeply.
Even though Zhang Shi's performance back at Myriad Kingdom City was incredible, he had just achieved a breakthrough. Wouldn't it be too much of a stretch for him to face a Consonant Spirit realm advanced stage expert?
"Don't worry!"
Knowing the worries of the others, Zhang Xuan smiled faintly. Walking to the center of the room, he looked at the young man before him and said, "You won't be able to do it alone. Have the eight of them fight me together. Otherwise, I fear that I won't stand a chance!"
"You …"
Seeing how the other party was still spouting such arrogant words, Xiulian gongzi clenched his fists tightly and said, "There's no need for that. I alone am more than enough to deal with you!"
Hu!
After saying those words, he threw a punch at the young man.
At Consonant Spirit realm advanced stage, one would be able to fuse one's body with one's soul. His fist carried a powerful might that suppressed one's soul, rendering one incapable of resisting.
If it had been any other Clarifying Turbidity realm pinnacle cultivator, they might have been defeated in a single move.
However, Zhang Xuan wasn't an ordinary Clarifying Turbidity realm pinnacle cultivator. Seeing the fist flying toward him, the other party chuckled lightly. Without any movement, he bent his thumb and middle finger … and flicked it lightly.
Peng!
The tip of his finger collided with Xiulian gongzi's fist, and before the latter could even react, the latter was sent flying a dozen meters away. His head crashed into a puddle of wine not too far away, leaving him in a pathetic state.
Placing his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan glanced at Xiulian gongzi, who was lying on the floor, and smiled. "It seems like …"
"You alone aren't enough!"
(The heavens bless Jiuzhaigou. May everyone be safe!)
