When Qi Xuangang walked out, his calm demeanor suddenly changed. While he was wearing a simple robe, his entire being seemed to be one with the heavenly path.
A powerful might shrouded the Nirvana of the Zhong Clan. At that moment, countless eyes were fixed on Qi Xuangang.
He stopped and stood there as if he was the only thing in that space.
His disciple.
The Nirvana of the Zhong Clan naturally knew of Qi Xuangang. Recently, he had been a popular person in the royal palace and was highly regarded by His Highness. His Highness even often asked him for guidance in cultivation. Even the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan felt threatened by him.
This person seemed to want to compete with them for status in Emperor Qi's territory, and he seemed to have the ability to do so.
Both the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan were wary of Qi Xuangang.
However, they did not expect that this powerful person to be the teacher of the extremely arrogant genius who had stepped onto the high platform and destroyed Zhong Qiu with one strike.
The expressions of those from the two forces became even gloomier when they thought of this.
From the looks of it, had all of this been arranged by Qi Xuangang?
He wanted his disciple to step on everyone else and become famous in Emperor Qi's territory, frightening the others, and let the people in the royal palace see how exceptional his disciple was.
When they thought of it that way, everything that had happened today seemed to be much easier to understand. It was as if everything was logical.
The Yun Clan was just an excuse. Their true goal was to pass the Palace Examination and step on them to rise.
Everything that had happened at that moment made it easy for people to think that way. However, the truth was that Qi Xuangang had indeed been waiting for Ye Futian, but he did not know that he would come in such a way.
However, it seemed that he understood everything that Ye Futian had said. One of Ye Futian's disciples in the Heavenly Mandate Realm had been forced to become a servant girl by the clan.
Everyone in the vast area looked at Qi Xuangang, and their hearts trembled. This person who had walked out from beside the prince clearly had extraordinary abilities. His might was released, and it was like the might of the heavenly path, shrouding the entire area. Everyone could feel the formless pressure.
So, this was where Ye Futian's trump card was?
No wonder he dared to provoke all the major forces so brazenly, humiliating even the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan.
Yun Teng and Yun Ni were clenching their fists in the crowd. They looked excited as if they had finally seen hope.
Ye Futian had come from the Crimson Dragon Realm. His master must have been a top-notch figure in the Crimson Dragon Realm. He was here as well, and he was by Prince Qi You's side. As such, the prince would probably not be biased.
However, would Ye Futian's master be able to fight against all these people by himself?
The Holiness of Nirvana of the Zhong Clan stared at Qi Xuangang and said nothing. As a Holiness of Nirvana himself, he was naturally able to sense the pressure emanating from Qi Xuangang. That heavenly might was more powerful than his own in terms of comprehension of the great path.
It was obvious that this influential figure in the Imperial Palace was stronger than him.
At that moment, a figure rose in the direction of the Zhong Clan. His body was well-built, and he stood straight like an insurmountable peak.
When the crowd saw him getting up, their hearts trembled.
Was the court examinations going to be a battle between the most elite individuals?
This person was the clan leader of the Zhong Clan, Zhong Li.
Zhong Li stood there calmly and looked at Qi Xuangang.
He was naturally able to sense that the prince did not intend to get involved in this matter. Perhaps His Highness already knew.
They were subordinates of Emperor Qi and were considered his right-hand men. They worked for Emperor Qi, but His Majesty knew that they would fight for their own interests as well. These matters were beneath the table, and he would not have brought them up.
However, Ye Futian had brought this matter to light on that day.
The Imperial Palace simply watched on. It seemed that His Highness intended to let them deal with it themselves.
If they lost, it would be their own incompetence. This was a good opportunity to teach them a lesson.
"Mr. Qi's disciple is indeed powerful," Zhong Li said plainly. Zhong Li said indifferently. His voice was not loud, but everyone in the vast land could hear him clearly.
Qi Xuangang and Ye Futian looked at Zhong Li, who had spoken. She continued, "However, if Mr. Qi has any dissatisfaction with the Zhong Clan during today's court examinations, you can find another opportunity to bring it up. If you want a servant girl, you can also tell me directly. One word from Mr. Qi, and I will naturally hand her over. There is no need to go through all this trouble to humiliate the cultivators of the court examinations and cripple Zhong Qiu of the Zhong Clan."
At their level, if Qi Xuangang asked him for a person, he would definitely give him face and hand the person over to Qi Xuangang.
Obviously, in his opinion, Qi Xuangang and Ye Futian were deliberately humiliating them by saying this.
Qi Xuangang naturally understood what Zhong Li meant. He looked at Zhong Li and said, "I have heard His Highness speak of the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan before, and you have spoken highly of them. It is a pity that you do not live up to your reputation. His Highness once asked me how I compare to the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan. It seems that I do not wish to be compared to the Zhong Clan."
Zhong Li looked at Qi Xuangang and raised his eyebrows slightly. Was he trying to humiliate him by saying that he was not worthy of being compared to him?
Qi Xuangang stepped forward and said slowly, "If the Zhong Clan knows that it was not what she wanted and that it was indecent, then they should know that it is not feasible. No matter who brought it up, they should have released her first and investigated the matter. That is the way of the saints. If I ask the Zhong Clan for her, then I will hand her over. Weighing right and wrong is not about principles and principles, but about pride and interests."
Prince Qi You looked impressed when he heard Qi Xuangang's words. Mr. Qi's words were brilliant.
"If they could not be defeated in one blow, then they wanted to kill my disciple. If they were defeated in one blow, then they could not bear the corresponding consequences. Since it is not about right and wrong, then it is about power. Why blame others for humiliating the Zhong Clan? They are just asking for it."
Qi Xuangang walked forward as he spoke, walking past the Holiness of Nirvana.
The Holiness of Nirvana of the Zhong Clan watched Qi Xuangang walk past him calmly with a rather stiff expression.
Qi Xuangang walked in the direction of the Zhong Clan and looked at Yun Qianyue, who was among the crowd. He said, "Was it your wish to join the Zhong Clan?"
Yun Qianyue looked at Qi Xuangang and said, "Senior, it was not my wish."
Qi Xuangang nodded and said with a smile, "Since Ye Futian said that you have defeated him as your master, then it does not seem appropriate for you to call him senior."
Yun Qianyue was stunned and looked up at Qi Xuangang. Her eyes were red, and the corners of her eyes were slightly wet. She bowed and said, "Qianyue greets the grandmaster."
"Indeed." Qi Xuangang smiled and nodded. "Come to me."
"Yes, grandmaster." Yun Qianyue walked forward, intending to walk out from the crowd of the Zhong Clan. However, a few figures stepped forward and blocked her way, all of them emanating overbearing might.
The matter had not been resolved yet, and the genius of the Zhong Clan, Zhong Qiu, had his training crippled. Was Yun Qianyue going to just walk away unscathed?
Qi Xuangang unleashed extremely terrifying might of the great path all of a sudden when he saw that. The might of the great path shrouded their surroundings, and his robe billowed even though there was no wind.
She took a step forward, and beams of golden light of the Great Path seemed to appear above the sky dome, directly piercing down. In an instant, those who were blocking Yun Qianyue's path all grunted, their faces pale, and retreated continuously.
They were all Saint Realm experts.
The mighty ones of the Zhong Clan looked up, and their hearts trembled. Qi Xuangang's powers were simply terrifying.
"If you, Zhong Clan, are going to forcefully detain my grand-disciple, then don't blame me for killing you." Qi Xuangang's voice was cold as he continued walking forward. The mighty ones of the Zhong Clan looked extremely embarrassed as they watched Qi Xuangang walk forward.
No one dared to touch Yun Qianyue.
The might of one person was enough to intimidate top-notch forces. That was how terrifying top-notch cultivators were.
"Mister Qi, shouldn't you ask for my permission to bully a junior of the Zhong Clan?" Zhong Li's voice was cold, and a powerful aura descended as well, pouncing towards Qi Xuangang.
Several Holiness of Nirvanas walked out at the same time, and their auras were terrifying.
Their might did not just fall on Qi Xuangang. The might of some mighty ones even shrouded Ye Futian.
It was as if if Qi Xuangang dared to do anything to the people of the Zhong Clan, they would do the same to Ye Futian.
For Zhong Li, it was hard for him to back down at that moment.
If they were to lower their heads and admit defeat just like that, they would not be able to advance any further in Emperor Qi's Territory. They would not even have their current status anymore.
Taking a step back would put them in an abyss.
Qi Xuangang would have replaced them and become the new pinnacle of Emperor Qi's Territory.
A figure flashed and came to Ye Futian's side. It was Wu Yong. His aura raged as he pressed towards the people of the Zhong Clan.
Several other auras burst from the crowd at the same time, and all of them were extremely powerful. One figure after another streaked through the air, heading towards the battle platform.
"Boom!" One of them seemed to be bathed in the divine fire of the sun, and his eyes burned with flames. That person was none other than Zhu Kong, the leader of the Zhu Clan of the Nine Clans.
"City Lord." Zhu Kong stood behind Ye Futian and cupped his hands. At that moment, Zhu Kong no longer had any ulterior motives. He could also see that Ye Futian had great potential in the future. Instead of harboring evil intentions and fighting with Ye Futian, it was better to wait until Ye Futian became powerful. When that happened, he would naturally not control them, and he might even give them a chance.
"City Lord." Another person descended. It was the leader of the Vermillion Bird Tribe, and he also released the might of a Holiness of Nirvanas.
"I was wondering if you would show up. I didn't expect you to actually be here. However, challenging someone of the same plane here is a bit of a bully, isn't it?" A voice was heard. Sword will filled the air, and beams of sword aura whizzed past. Several swordsmen stepped out at the same time and came to the high platform.
The one who took the lead was Pei Min of Sword Emperor Palace.
People stepped out one after another, heading towards the battle platform. Yin Tianjiao appeared as well. Several mighty ones saw her go up and followed her, saying, "Princess."
It was apparent that after the people from the Crimson Dragon Realm dispersed and heard that Emperor Qi's Territory was going to hold a grand event, they all tacitly decided to use this place as a gathering place.
Then, they happened to run into Ye Futian.
A group of mighty ones showed up and came to Ye Futian's side one after another. Holiness of Nirvanas seemed to show up from time to time.
Such a scene left the people of Emperor Qi's Territory dumbfounded.
The Zhong Clan wanted to compete in numbers?
