Although he was still very immature, it was without a doubt that Chu Xingtian's every word and action were very reasonable. Even if one wanted to refute him, one would not be able to find a reason to do so.
Chu Xingtian elegantly turned his head and looked at Yafu and Yanni with a gentle gaze. He said elegantly, "Ladies, you don't need to mind. Whoever you choose to follow is related to your life's fate. You can change your mind at any time. We can understand."
Yan Guilai nodded and said, "That's reasonable. After all, this isn't buying a headband. It doesn't matter if you buy the wrong one. It's related to your life's fate. We can't be too careful."
Hearing Yan Guilai and Chu Xingtian's words, Yafu and Yanni's faces were filled with anxiety.
If they had to choose, of course they would choose Yan Guilai. But if they really chose him, it would be tantamount to inviting disaster for him.
As the saying went, "Femme fatale". Whether it was Yafu or Yanni, they definitely didn't want to become Yan Guilai's calamity.
Seeing the two girls hesitating and constantly looking at Yan Guilai, Chu Xingtian's eyes flashed. He could already see that Yafu and Yanni's hearts were still on Yan Guilai's side.
Secretly clenching his teeth, Chu Xingtian forcibly adjusted his breathing and said with a smile, "It seems … our performance is not enough to move the two of you. If that's the case …"
As he spoke, Chu Xingtian looked around. Then, he proudly said, "Since our performance was not enough to move them, we shouldn't continue to force them. How about … we use our performance in this exam to obtain the two ladies' favor? Everyone, what do you think?"
Wow!
Hearing Chu Xingtian's words, everyone's eyes lit up.
Although they didn't know what Yafu and Yanni were hesitating about, there was no doubt that they had indeed sunk into hesitation and couldn't make a choice.
Under such circumstances, Chu Xingtian's suggestion was undoubtedly the best.
If Yafu and Yanni couldn't make a choice, it must be that everyone wasn't attractive enough. If that was the case … then everyone just had to do their best. Whoever performed better would naturally win Yafu and Yanni's favor. This was very reasonable.
Standing there proudly, Chu Xingtian turned to the five great geniuses of the five great clans and said, "How about this suggestion? Do you have any opinions or suggestions?"
The five geniuses of the Five Great Clans were overjoyed at the suggestion. How could they possibly reject it?
From their point of view, their family might not be comparable to the Great Chu royalty, but when it came to personal potential, strength, and talent, they were absolutely not afraid of being compared to anyone.
Just as Chu Xingtian had said, they would know who was capable and who wasn't after a competition.
Once they performed better than everyone else in the exam, Yaf and Yanni were not stupid. They would definitely make the right choice!
Although the Empress was glorious, compared to the Great Dao, she was nothing.
If given a choice, everyone would want to be the Emperor, not the Empress.
Above the Empress, there was still the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. Furthermore … after many years, she would eventually die.
However, the Emperor was different. The Emperor was not bound by any restrictions, and no one could restrain them.
Not only did the Emperor possess terrifying strength, but he also possessed endless life. How could a mere Empress compare to him?
Therefore, the five geniuses did not hesitate to support Chu Xingtian.
After receiving the support of the five geniuses, Chu Xingtian smiled in satisfaction. He turned to Yan Guilai and said, "How is it? Now … everyone has agreed. What do you think?"
Faced with Chu Xingtian's question, Yan Guilai bitterly smiled and shrugged. "Alright, since you all insist, I don't mind. Let's compete!"
Seeing that Yan Guilai had agreed, Chu Xingtian couldn't help but laugh. After paying his respects to Yaf and Yanni, he turned and strode out of the ruined temple.
Watching Chu Xingtian turn and leave, Yan Guilai couldn't help but sigh. This Chu Xingtian was truly scheming. He was so young, but already so powerful. It was truly incredible.
Obviously, Chu Xingtian had already seen from Yaf and Yanni's expressions that they favored him.
If he forced them to choose, although he wasn't sure who they would choose, they definitely wouldn't choose Chu Xingtian. If they did choose, they would have done so earlier. Why wait until now to choose?
Thus, Chu Xingtian first reprimanded Chu Lian, and then took the opportunity to revoke Yaf and Yanni's choice.
Then, when Yaf and Yanni were unable to choose, he took advantage of the situation to propose the perfect method of using his performance in the exam to win the two sisters' favor.
Once this proposal was proposed, the five geniuses of the five families would definitely support it.
And the surrounding spectators would definitely be filled with admiration for Chu Xingtian. Even Yaf and Yanni admired his selflessness, impartiality, and honesty.
But in reality, in Yan Guilai's eyes, this was kidnapping the public opinion. Chu Xingtian's ultimate goal wasn't anyone else, but himself.
If Chu Xingtian didn't jump out, then Yaf and Yanni could only waver between Chu Lian and Yan Guilai. This was something that Chu Xingtian absolutely could not tolerate.
If he truly wanted to be selfless, then he would first remove himself from the equation and let only Yan Guilai and Chu Lian compete. What did it have to do with anyone else?
By kidnapping the public opinion, he gathered the will of the people to force Yan Guilai to agree.
Faced with this, Yan Guilai had no way to refuse. Otherwise … not to mention how the surrounding spectators would view him, even Yaf and Yanni would be very disappointed.
Chu Xingtian didn't say that whoever won the exam would get Yaf and Yanni.
The most brilliant part of Chu Xingtian was that … he only wanted everyone to do their best to win Yaf and Yanni's favor.
Although Chu Xingtian was secretly doing this for himself, on the surface, Chu Xingtian stood at the highest point of morality. He simply couldn't be refused.
Watching Chu Xingtian leave with large strides, Yan Guilai couldn't help but take a deep breath. This opponent was not simple.
One had to know that there were a total of two attributes suitable for alchemy. One was wood, and the other was fire.
The wood attribute alchemy inheritance, the complete set of alchemy recipes, and the precious seven-colored alchemy recipe were all lost with the fall of Cyanwood City. It would be very difficult to find them again.
However, one couldn't forget that the fire attribute was also suitable for alchemy.
Furthermore … compared to the middle stage ninth grade Sovereign Lingmu's alchemy inheritance, the Great Chu Imperial Family's Divine Alchemy Inheritance, which originated from Di Tianyi, which was at the peak of the ninth grade, was still far inferior.
Most importantly, the southern provinces hadn't fallen. Di Tianyi's alchemy inheritance was very complete. All kinds of alchemy recipes, tools, and cauldrons were also complete. There had never been a gap.
Thus, Chu Xingtian clearly possessed absolute confidence in this examination. He was confident that he would be able to defeat everyone and win over Yaf and Yanni's loyalty.
In a situation where he clearly knew that he was far superior to everyone else, Chu Xingtian's actions seemed a little despicable.
On the surface, it seemed fair, but in reality, it was absolutely unfair.
However, facing all this, although Yan Guilai was under great pressure, he was fearless.
