“Hmph, what is the point of talking so much shit? A good fight would the best way to find out who is stronger than whom.” said some wealthy and noble cultivators in the crowd. There were some people who knew the Zuo Clan and its most outstanding junior cultivator, Zuo Qiu. Because he wasn’t even seventeen at the time and had already broken through to the second Ling Qi layer, Lin Feng, who wasn’t seventeen yet either, could never hope to defeat him.
“Hmph, challenging him, who doesn’t even have a letter of recommendation, is that really fair? People like us shouldn’t challenge weaker people.” said Zuo Qiu. He felt secure in the knowledge that he had backing.
“If you don’t dare, just say it and don’t try to find excuses. Zuo Qiu, just slap that guy a few times and show to the wealthy and noble cultivators that these beggars cannot compete with us.” said a young man in the crowd who had already been talking for a while about how strong the noble cultivators were. The young man who was talking was wearing yellow clothes and looked unbelievably arrogant. He seemed to be about eighteen years old.
“Don’t worry, Bai Ze. No need to tell me this. Even without you telling me this, I would still slap him and make him close that filthy mouth of his.” said Zuo Qiu while smiling.
“Haha, everything’s alright then. You just can’t afford to make the Zuo Clan lose face.” said Bai Ze with an enigmatic smile on his face. Even though Zuo Qiu was strong and had been accepted into the academy, he still didn’t attack Lin Feng even though he just had to stretch out his hand and slap him. Bai Ze was just wondering why Zuo Qiu had required so much time to act.
“Is it even possible for the Zuo Clan to lose face” said Zuo Qiu with his head held high and while looking at Lin Feng in a disdainful way. He then coldly said to Lin Feng: “If you slap your own face, I will not attack you.”
“I’ve rarely met such a moronic group of people.” Said Lin Feng while exasperated. He didn’t even pay attention to Zuo Qiu. He was looking at Duan Yu who didn’t even try to warn Zuo Qiu of the danger. Instead, she was calmly watching the scene and was waiting for the show to start.
Everybody was quickly going to learn about the fact that Lin Feng had slapped her but if Lin Feng showed his strength then at that moment, she wouldn’t lose as much face because everybody would see how strong he was and people wouldn’t think that she had been slapped by a random nobody.
“Moronic?” The crowd found Lin Feng intriguing and were getting more and more interested.
“Zuo Qiu, the one you called a beggar has just called you a moron.”
