Chapter 2054: Chapter 2054 Disagreement
Ye Liuyun started to take an interest in Qi Huan.
"It seems that there are still people in the Sect who dare to oppose Murong Tian!"
Murong Tian was also startled. Initially, he wanted either Liu Zimo or Xing Baiyu to take action. However, Qi Huan audaciously refuted his words before they could act.
Qi Huan was an old disciple. Although Liu Zimo and Xing Baiyu are stronger than him, they do not wish to battle with him. Mainly, they do not dare to initiate and risk injuring him.
Left with no other choice, Murong Tian evaluated Qi Huan and Feng Chen’s capabilities while also seeking Feng Chen’s opinion.
Feng Chen, looking perturbed, said to Qi Huan, "I admit, I’m not your match. I surrender, alright?"
"Then forget about it! The first and second sacred disciple sadly dared not to accept my challenge! Truly boring!" Qi Huan said as he threw away a cleanly gnawed bone with disdain and wiped his hands on his clothes.
"If nobody is coming out, should I leave? I’m full and don’t enjoy watching your fancy but insubstantial moves!"
Qi Huan wiped his mouth with his sleeve and spoke brashly, disregarding everyone else’s feelings.
Murong Tian, on the other hand, was unwilling to let him casually leave. He said to Feng Chen, "Since he’s in the mood, why don’t you exchange a few moves with him? Your skills are quite comparable. Even if it’s just a friendly sparring match, it should be fun for us to watch!”
Ye Liuyun became more convinced about Feng Chen’s relationship with Murong Tian on hearing this.
His statement clearly told Feng Chen that the two are on par, encouraging him to take action. If they were not related, Murong Tian would definitely not speak like this.
Feng Chen obliged and stood up, “Alright, I will spar with Qi Huan. But we must agree to only touch the surface and not harm each other!”
"Hmph, if you want to hurt me, you need to have that ability! Stop talking nonsense, let’s fight. I have to go back to cultivate after the fight!" Qi Huan promptly got up and began.
Feng Chen took a deep breath and, albeit reluctantly, followed.
He wanted to communicate with Qi Huan privately, asking why he was provoking him.
However, Qi Huan exposed their communication, “Don’t secretly try to message me! I just don’t like you and want to beat you up! If you’re scared, get lost!”
“I have no clue what I did to offend you? I humbly request for an explanation!” After being scolded seemingly out of nowhere by Qi Huan, Feng Chen’s expression changed. He could not help but ask with a serious face.
Qi Huan was imitating his previous demeanor, also setting himself in a cross-armed stance, smiling coldly at Feng Chen, “What do you think?”
At this point, Ye Liuyun’s divine sense noticed that both Feng Chen and Murong Tian’s expressions had slightly changed.
“It seems like I’ve guessed correctly. That stance really is their secret signal. Surprisingly, Qi Huan has also figured it out! It seems that not all of the disciples are fools!” Ye Liuyun felt a newfound fondness for Qi Huan.
Feng Chen swiftly changed the topic, not continuing to ask any further, “Since you’re unwilling to come clean, then let us just exchange a couple of blows!”
With that, he immediately started manipulating his genuine energy to attack, afraid that Qi Huan would reveal their secret in public.
Seeing that he was about to attack, Qi Huan did not expose their secret code either. He also started initiating his genuine energy, clashing with Feng Chen.
Once they started fighting, there were no signs that they would stop when necessary, they were both going all out.
Since Qi Huan had insulted Feng Chen first, he was determined to attack. Even if he hurt Qi Huan, he would have a justification for his actions if he confronted him on this later on.
Qi Huan was clearly trying to teach Feng Chen a lesson. He knew that his strength was not weak, so he did not hold back in his attack.
Their fight was too fierce, with their genuine energy burst rushed into the crowd of people.
Murong Tian, for the sake of not disrupting others’ meals, immediately activated the mountain-protecting formation and isolated the two of them outside of it.
Their fight gave Ye Liuyun a chance to witness the true strength of the Sect’s disciples.
Both of them were of mid-sixth-tier, but fought with the momentum of an early-seventh-tier, making the whole mountain tremble violently. The mountain could’ve been destroyed with just a few blows if it wasn’t for the formation.
After watching for a while, Ye Liuyun decided that Qi Huan would certainly win.
The two of them were nearly matched in every aspect. However, Qi Huan’s Bloodline Power became stronger the more he fought. It was somewhat similar to the Dragon Lady’s Whirlwind Dragon Technique, just not as wild.
Furthermore, his combat experience was clearly much more extensive than that of Feng Chen, with quick reactions. On the other hand, Feng Chen lacked battle training. In terms of changes in attack styles and defense, he was far inferior to Qi Huan in seizing opportunities.
Soon, Feng Chen fell into a disadvantaged position under Qi Huan’s attack.
Seeing this, Murong Tian immediately tried to call a halt. "Qi Huan," he said, "we agreed to stop when a touch is scored. Why are you still going all out? I think we should stop here."
But Qi Huan didn’t answer. Instead, he kept increasing his effort, seizing an advantage to exchange a punch with Feng Chen.
Although his punch was advantageous and sent Feng Chen flying to crash into the formation and spat blood, Qi Huan was also bleeding from the corner of his mouth, with his blood and Qi tumbling within him.
Murong Tian insinuated, "We agreed to stop at a touch, but you used excessive force. The people wouldn’t agree to this."
At that moment, Liu Zimo and Xing Baiyu also stood up in response.
"Since you’re disregarding the brotherhood, don’t blame us for stepping in!" Liu Zimo volunteered.
"Stop your nonsense! So you can beat people, but I can’t? And now you plan to gang up on me?"
He didn’t wait for their response before he took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, and shouted into it, "Master, Murong Tian’s trying to use a group attack against me, come save me quickly!"
"Haha, this guy!" Seeing this scene, Ye Liuyun couldn’t help laughing to himself.
Seeing this, Murong Tian quickly signaled Liu Zimo and Xing Baiyu to sit down.
"Qi Huan, don’t accuse me! I wasn’t the one who arranged for people to gang up on you!" Murong Tian hastily explained.
However, Qi Huan wore a rascally grin, laughing, "You know it yourself! Anyway, when my master arrives and sees me injured at your banquet, he will inevitably punish you!"
As soon as Qi Huan finished speaking, a horrifying pressure of a powerful fighter enveloped the far-off part of the room.
"Who dares to bully my disciple!" a commanding voice boomed.
No sooner had the sound subsided, Master Qiao Yun rose in mid-air, hovering above the crowd.
Murong Tian and several disciples hastily paid respect to him.
Ignoring everyone else, Qiao Yun immediately questioned Qi Huan, "Who hit you?"
Qi Huan chose not to mention the incident where he got the worst of a brawl with Feng Chen, instead pointing at Liu Zi and Xing Baiyu to complain to Qiao Yun, "These two were just about to seize the opportunity to attack me while I was injured!"
"Hmm?" Qiao Yun immediately set his gaze on Liu Zi and Xing Baiyu.
The two could only hurriedly explain with forced smiles, "We were just joking, we didn’t lay a finger on him!"
Suddenly, Qiao Yun released his intimidating aura. The pressure of a mid-eighth-tier was not something they could resist!
"Thud, Thud" the two coughed up blood, immediately dropping to the ground.
