Chapter 163 The Divine Stabilizing Platform, Dragon Blood Fruit, and a Single Strike Through Flowers

"Could it be another ancient ruin?"

Xu Feng scratched his head in surprise and looked around at his surroundings.

Although this place is far from the base, it is not a remote or sparsely populated area.

If there were truly ancient ruins here, they should have been discovered long ago.

Xu Feng then questioned Ah She in detail.

Through Ah She's limited vocabulary, Xu Feng roughly understood that this so-called "hole" really was just a hole.

It should be an abandoned nest of some mutated creature.

Among them were a batch of strange things that the creature had collected.

"Go! Go and see!"

Thinking of this, Xu Feng flipped over and mounted Ah She's back, patted its head, and prepared to head off.

Ah Kun flapped his wings anxiously, trying to climb on.

But how could it possibly do that with its short and stocky build?

Aside from the fluffy feathers flying everywhere, all that was left was hopping around.

Xu Feng chuckled, picked it up, and put it around Ah She's neck, wrapping his arms around it.

Ah Kun then chirped twice, satisfied, and nudged Ah Snake's ear with his paw.

"Woo——"

Ah She shook his head, flapped his ears twice, and then steadily started moving towards the cave.

In less than five minutes, Xu Feng saw the abandoned nest.

It was half-built on a high, sloping earthen hill, like the houses of the Banpo people.

There was even a flat area in front of the cave that looked like a human vegetable garden, but it was overgrown with weeds.

"Could this be a human's den?" Xu Feng jumped off Ah She's back and muttered to himself in surprise.

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, he turned his head and saw Ah Kun banging his head on the ground, his two short wings flapping and struggling to get up.

Xu Feng picked it up and said, "You really should eat less."

Ah Kun gave Xu Feng's leg a peck in annoyance before waddling into the cave like a penguin.

Soon, it laboriously dragged half of its "human leg" out.

Xu Feng stared in astonishment at the "bronze human legs" and curiously walked into the cave.

This underground cave is quite large, easily over a hundred square meters.

The ground inside should have been covered with dry grass, but now it is covered with lush greenery.

The cave was cluttered with various objects of different sizes.

From exquisite animal bones to artifacts from human civilization.

What wheels, pots, and huge solid-state batteries for cars?

Xu Feng even saw half of an airplane wing.

But what bothered him most was the smell in the cave.

A refreshing sandalwood scent.

After searching for a long time, Xu Feng finally found a lotus-shaped stone platform deep in the cave, about half a person's height and one meter in diameter.

The entire stone platform is made of a certain grayish-white crystalline stone.

It has a cool touch and emits a faint sandalwood scent, which is quite mystical.

Judging from its shape, this should be a prop used by some kind of practitioner for "meditation", or simply a shrine for displaying statues of gods.

It has no characters or patterns on it and looks quite ordinary.

But what's amazing is that...

When Xu Feng touched the stone platform, he felt a sense of peace within him.

His brain felt as if it had been massaged by some kind of force, and he felt slightly cool.

After standing there for a while and touching it, Xu Feng felt himself immediately become full of energy.

As if they had just woken up.

This magical feeling convinced him that this stone platform was definitely not ordinary.

"nice one!"

He never expected to find such a mysterious treasure here.

This thing is definitely a remnant of an extremely ancient civilization from another dimension.

Did I just get a lucky break?
Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction: "Open the door! Open the door wide!"

Turning around, Xu Feng gently patted Ah Kun's head and tossed him a fish roe as a reward.

Ah Kun happily bit the fish roe with a "plop" and swallowed the liquid inside.

Then, he excitedly bounced around and ran about in the cave.

After putting away the stone platform, Xu Feng turned around and wandered around the cave again.

After finding nothing of use, they left with the two beasts.

He instructed Ah She to take good care of Ah Kun, not to run around or cause trouble during this time, and to live a low-key life every day.

Xu Feng then leaped into the air and rushed towards Jin Biao.

He planned to meet with Senior Yin before leaving to tell him that he was going back to Earth.

In case the other party becomes impatient.

Meanwhile, his storage ring was also filled with a full thousand kilograms of various delicacies.

It'll be a good opportunity to see which one the seniors prefer.

This was a restaurant he had Huang Sen help him choose, and it cost a lot of money to have specially customized.

Hopefully, the gift from senior brother will not disappoint.

soon.

Upon arriving at Jinbiao, Xu Feng skillfully entered the depths of the cave.

They soon found Senior Yin inside the mountain.

"Senior! This junior has brought some heavenly delicacies!"

Xu Feng greeted him with a smile.

Swish!
Those enormous, lantern-like eyes snapped open, and a powerful voice slowly echoed in Xu Feng's mind: "You've broken through? According to human strength classifications, what level is this? Battle General."

Xu Feng obediently took out the food while saying, "Reporting to Senior, we have divided this advancement into three stages."

There are three levels of warriors: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.

"But I've been fortunate enough to reach the mid-level warrior level."

Senior Yin said disdainfully, "It's hard to understand why such a small realm needs to be divided into so many categories. What's the point?"
"Unless you reach the lord level, you're just a little ant."

Xu Feng smiled憨厚ly: "Let's not talk about that. Come on, senior."

Here are more than thirty kinds of delicacies from our Great Xia, which were obtained by the younger generation with great effort.

The younger generation has had dozens of kilograms of each kind made. Please taste them and choose a few that you like.

When the younger generation comes again, we'll make sure to prepare a larger quantity of your favorite dishes.

"Oh? Hiss—"

Senior Yin was slightly surprised and took a gentle sniff.

In an instant, a gust of wind swept through the entire mountainside.

Like an oversized vacuum cleaner, a violent wind suddenly howled towards the bottom of the mountain.

Xu Feng raised his hand and used his mental power to suppress the food, preventing it from being blown away.

"Oh, you're so kind. Let me have a taste."

Senior Yin chuckled and casually ate a large bowl of spiced pig's trotters.

"Mmm, tender and flavorful, wow—it's been so long since I've had such delicious food!"

Senior Yin's voice was slightly excited.

And with his excitement.

The entire mountainside trembled violently.

Xu Feng stumbled, then regained his footing and glanced around worriedly.

They were afraid that Senior Yang would get too excited and cause the mountain to collapse, burying him inside.

"Don't worry, I've reinforced this place; it won't collapse so easily. Let me try this one. What is this?"

Senior Yin seemed to have seen through Xu Feng's thoughts, and replied with a smile.

He then ordered another pot of chopped chili fish head and asked.

"The chopped chili fish head is made with several kinds of chili peppers."

The next hour.

While the senior ate, Xu Feng explained.

Occasionally, he would casually pick up a piece with his chopsticks and put it in there, to show that he felt safe eating it.

really.

Only delicious food can truly soothe the soul.

The same goes for senior brother Yin.

after an hour.

After the last meal was eaten.

A satisfied roar immediately echoed from inside the mountain.

That was a sigh of condolence from Senior Yin.

Afterwards, the senior highlighted three of the dishes, asking Xu Feng to provide them in large quantities next time he came.

A dish of chopped chili fish head and pig's trotters is called chopped chili pig's trotters.

A serving of Sichuan peppercorn chicken.

A serving of sweet osmanthus honey millet jelly.

"Senior really knows how to eat!" Xu Feng flattered.

Senior Yin chuckled lightly: "Thank you for satisfying my appetite. It's been such a long, long time since I've tasted such delicious food!"

After saying all that, Senior Yang suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Tell me, what do you want?"

"This junior dares not ask for anything, but I accept your reward, senior," Xu Feng said humbly.

"Alright, let me think about it." After a moment of silence, Senior Yang flew out from the mountain.

Xu Feng grabbed it, then looked at the object in his hand in surprise: "What is this?"

It was a fruit that resembled a tomato, but was much redder and rounder, almost unlike a fruit.

If it weren't for the two green leaves growing at its top.

Xu Feng had no idea what it was and thought it was a divination ball made of some kind of gemstone.

"This thing is called Dragon Blood Fruit, but of course that's not important."

Importantly, it can greatly strengthen the skeleton of organisms while enhancing the vitality of flesh and blood.

Even if injured in the future, the injury will slowly heal even without any treatment.

Of course, the effect wasn't as strong as expected, and some supplementary healing methods were still needed.

Senior Yin said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Feng knew he had struck gold.

Good heavens, the effect of this fruit is comparable to a bone strengthening surgery worth tens of millions!
It should be noted that this bone enhancement surgery is one of the most advanced technologies in human civilization for strengthening the bodies of martial artists.

A single surgery can require three to five procedures.

It can greatly strengthen a martial artist's bones, making them less prone to injury in battle.

It should be understood that martial artists, with their mere human bodies, can unleash terrifying destructive power of tens or even hundreds of tons at a time.

The physical burden is actually very heavy.

Therefore, many people sometimes dare not unleash their full power, since not everyone's bones are strong and stable.

People are born different.

However, this surgery also carries significant risks, and multiple surgeries can damage the body.

Therefore, many martial artists still choose to cultivate naturally and do not undergo this surgery.

But this fruit can achieve this effect simply by consuming it.

It's truly amazing!
I just don't know how effective it will be.

Although Senior Yin said the effect wasn't strong, that was probably only for something of its level.

But what about Xu Feng, a mere mid-level warrior? He was already looking forward to it.

"Thank you, senior, for the reward!"

Xu Feng clasped his hands in a respectful salute and said.

Senior Yin said calmly, "It's not a reward, just a transaction between us."

Xu Feng grinned, truly displaying the demeanor of a senior.

"By the way, senior, there is another matter I need to ask you."

As he spoke, Xu Feng took out the stone platform from his storage ring.

"Does the senior recognize this item? I found it by chance in a mountain cave."

"Huh?" Senior Yang indeed expressed a puzzled expression.

Immediately, the stone platform floated up into the air, swayed in front of the giant eyeball, and then landed.

"Oh, so it's a calming platform. It's a little gadget made with a stone called a calming stone."

Sitting on it for meditation allows one to eliminate distracting thoughts, maintain mental tranquility, and focus one's mind.

Furthermore, if one infuses mental energy into it, one can even construct a meditative world within one's mind.

Users can then cultivate themselves through meditation.

To achieve 100% focused cultivation, a level impossible in reality, without expending any physical energy.

These were small gadgets that were popular among humanoid demon cultivators a long time ago.

However, as time has passed, very few of these items remain.

Finding something like this is a stroke of luck; it's a small toy, which is quite nice.

Small toys.
Xu Feng patted the stone platform with delight and put it away: "Thank you for your explanation, senior."

What's a trinket to Senior Yin is a priceless treasure to him!
The Platform for Stabilizing the Spirit.

nice one!
After bidding farewell to his seniors, Xu Feng leaped towards the camp.

Back at the camp, with the repair work still in progress, Xu Feng leisurely strolled around.

He waited until the mission was over and they returned home before dragging Lu Fei into the martial arts room.

He then took out the dragon blood fruit and cut it in half with a knife.

"I'll eat first, you can eat when you're done."

Although he trusted Senior Yin very much, Xu Feng was still unwilling to take any risks.

Lu Fei said with some concern, "If anything is wrong, just spit it out immediately."

It's only a two-minute walk to the hospital from here.

Xu Feng nodded slightly and then bit the fruit into pieces.

It has a sweet taste and no strange flavor.

Dragon blood fruit tastes like a pear, but its flesh tastes like a watermelon.

A very peculiar fruit.

Xu Feng quickly finished the fist-sized fruit.

He gently closed his eyes and carefully sensed it for a while.

I felt my whole body gradually becoming warm.

Then.

The warm sensation turned into a slight tingling.

It felt as if he had been slightly electrocuted, spreading throughout his muscles and bones.

Xu Feng felt an itch inside his body, as if ants were gnawing at his bones.

Listening to Xu Feng's description, Xu Feng became increasingly worried.

But a few minutes later, Xu Feng raised an eyebrow and looked at Lu Fei: "Eat! No problem!"

He used his mental power to scan his body and confirmed that his bones were indeed undergoing regular changes.

It became increasingly crystalline, solid, and dense.

This feeling is amazing.

Hearing this, Lu Fei felt relieved. After eating the fruit in a few bites, she closed her eyes and soon giggled, "What a strange feeling!"

"Right? It feels tingly and numb all over." Xu Feng nodded with a smile.

It took about an hour for their bodies to gradually adjust to the sensation.

This kind of evolution is obviously slow and cannot be completed in a very short period of time.

So they let their bodies absorb the medicinal power of the fruit without engaging in any cultivation.

Instead, they took a rare break.

But as night fell, Xu Feng felt as if there was something he hadn't done.

My whole body is itchy.

So he went back to the martial arts room, took out the calming platform, and sat down.

comfortable.

He smiled with satisfaction.

Practicing for a while every day has become his routine, even ingrained in his instincts and turned into a habit.

One day without practicing.

I'm still not used to it.

Sitting on this meditation platform, Xu Feng felt a faint sense of refreshment.

With his eyes closed, he silently channeled his spiritual energy into the stone platform as instructed by his senior.

Sure enough, the next moment.

Xu Feng then found himself in a vast, pure white space.

There was nothing around.

Only himself.

Right in front of him stood a stone tablet.

Above it were three large, elegant characters: “Ding Shen Tai” (定神台).

"Huh? Why are they Chinese characters? Could it be that this thing was made by the people of Great Xia?"

Wait a minute, the senior clearly said that it was something used by the demon race in ancient times, which is what people now call alien cultivators.

How could there be a man here? Could it be?

With a thought from Xu Feng.

The words on the stone tablet had turned into English words.

“The stone platform that calms the soul.”

"Pfft—it's machine translation!"

Xu Feng shook his head, understanding dawning on him.

The text displayed here was changed according to his understanding, not handwritten.

Xu Feng tried walking around the space and found that it was indeed very large, so large that it seemed boundless.

So he dared not wander around and could only circle around the stone tablet.

"How exactly to use it? We'll have to study that further."

Just as he was thinking that, the surrounding space seemed to change, transforming into the appearance of their family's martial arts room.

Xu Feng looked around in surprise.

Then, out of curiosity, he touched the floor and discovered that it was made of the same material as the one in their martial arts room.

So that's how it's played!

He smiled with delight and tried practicing swordsmanship, movement techniques, and even various mental techniques one by one in the martial arts room.

Xu Feng became even more excited after realizing he hadn't even broken a sweat.

This was so useful to him!

Then, he came to the stone platform again and a thought struck him.

miracly.

The surrounding martial arts room scene quickly dissipated.

Soon, Xu Feng found himself floating in the sky.

Below, a herd of beasts was galloping about.

Hidden among the beasts was a fierce tiger, its body covered in crimson flames, which was now staring intently at him.

Xu Feng looked around.

This was exactly the scene from when they were attacked by a pack of beasts at the communications station.

That fierce tiger was none other than the Crimson Flame Tiger King, a beast general-level beast.

Everything seemed so real.

The commotion of the herd of animals, the swirling dust, the movement of the air, even the gentle breeze.

Xu Feng looked around, then rushed down to the ground and instantly killed a mutated creature with a single slash.

Then, amidst the roars of the beasts, he leaped up excitedly and shouted, "Awesome!!"

This is so much fun.

It was like a game scene replay, vividly bringing to life a scene from his memory.

Then, Hsu Feng tried other variations.

Various scenes appeared around us.

Until one point, when he got tired of playing, he chose to return to the original scene of the beast herd.

Swish!
With a whoosh, Xu Feng charged towards the ground and engaged the Crimson Flame Tiger King in a fierce battle amidst the horde of beasts, his hands empty.

After killing him several times, Xu Feng changed scenes and fought with some other martial artists.

After using it for a period of time.

Xu Feng then discovered that the simulated creatures in this scene were all related to his own understanding of their strength.

If he has never fought his opponent, he is unaware of the opponent's specific strength.

Even if it were realistically simulated in this virtual environment, that person would still have no fighting ability whatsoever.

One strike is enough to kill.

This also aligns with the predecessors' positioning of it as a small toy.

If this simulation can truly recreate everyone he has ever met, including their strength, then...

That would be a bit scary.

The rest of the night.

Xu Feng was fighting the Crimson Flame Tiger King hand-to-hand with the beasts.

No weapons were used.

He did not use his mental powers.

It was purely to hone his combat skills.

He used his hands instead of a knife, aiming to avoid being touched by other creatures in the herd during battle.

At the same time, the tiger king must also be killed.

Similar to completing the game without taking damage.

It was purely to hone his physical skills.

The battle lasted all night.

Wait until sometime the next day.

When Xu Feng suddenly felt a heaviness in his head and woke up, he found that it was already eight o'clock in the morning.

He quickly got up and opened the panel, and sure enough, the proficiency of all the secret techniques had collectively increased.

In particular, his proficiency in the Floating Light Body Technique increased by ten points overnight!

It's equivalent to the results of his usual two or three days of cultivation!

Surprisingly, after a night of intense fighting, he felt no fatigue or exhaustion whatsoever.

It's like getting a good night's sleep while simultaneously completing your cultivation.

Cultivating while sleeping! This feeling is amazing!
Xu Feng was overjoyed and rushed out of the martial arts room to tell Lu Fei about it.

Lu Fei exclaimed in amazement at this.

Because playing against real people in a virtual environment can have a similar effect.

However, it is no different from real combat and is still extremely mentally taxing.

After playing ten or so games, people often become exhausted.

However, meditating and cultivating in this meditation platform does not consume energy!

Immediately, the two discussed and decided that from now on, when Xu Feng went to work during the day, Lu Fei would use this mind-stabilizing platform to cultivate.

When Xu Feng returned at night, he would cultivate while Xu Feng slept.

Thus, the two took turns.

This way, the function of the calming platform can be maximized.

With this aid, Lu Fei's strength will surely reach another level when the finals are held in the sweltering summer a month later!
boom!
A cloud of dust followed.

Xu Feng suddenly flipped away, coughed twice, and got up from the ground.

The person standing opposite him was dressed in black and carrying a large black and gold spear.

His entire being seemed to come alive like a tall, straight spear, exuding a silent yet sharp killing intent.

That's right.

This person is Yue Changkong, the champion of the No. 9 Base Division of this summer's selection competition.

Xu Feng was simulating the scene from the day of the competition.

They are currently standing in the evacuation route after the game.

The surrounding crowd blurred, as if they were spectators watching the scene.

There was no emotion whatsoever.

Fighting against these geniuses has always been Xu Feng's dream.

He's too old to compete.

But being able to fight them in this way in the virtual world still excited him.

At the same time, this would also allow Xu Feng to clearly understand the gap between himself and these geniuses in terms of combat techniques.

The strength of these people on the Divine Platform was exactly the same as what Xu Feng had seen in the matches he watched.

Before his battle with Yue Changkong, he had already fought against Han Yan, who was ranked second and had died, as well as several others ranked below him.

Without resorting to spiritual magic, Xu Feng and these people were evenly matched, with each having their own victories and defeats.

The only exception was Yue Changkong; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't defeat him even once.

Even with the use of mental power, he could barely manage a draw with his opponent.

This person's combat skills were so strong that Xu Feng had never seen anything like it in his life.

Of course, this does not include his master.

In other words.

Yue Changkong's strength is so great that he can even fight against a mentalist without being at a disadvantage.

His spear seemed to come alive, unparalleled and invincible in both attack and defense.

Xu Feng also clearly felt Lu Fei's sense of despair.

The gap between him and Yue Changkong was indeed despairing.

However, Xu Feng was not a genius, so he did not have that kind of psychological burden.

I felt relieved very quickly.

To him, the opponent was very strong, but not to the point of despair.

Because Xu Feng knew very well.

If you can't win the first time, try ten times.

If you can't win ten times, then fight a hundred times.

One day, his strength will surpass that of his opponent.

Because he will continue to improve.

January flew by.

The nightly combat training greatly improved Xu Feng's strength.

Indeed, everyone says that real-world experience is the best teacher.

In actual combat, some flaws in Xu Feng's swordsmanship and movement techniques were exposed in life-or-death situations.

After countless fierce battles, Xu Feng's proficiency in various combat techniques increased rapidly.

Almost all of them rose by hundreds or even nearly two hundred points.

It's equivalent to two months of regular training progress.

Only the Flying Star Moon-Severing Blade continues to grow slowly.

Even so, it still increased proficiency by about 45 points.

At least six or seven of these points are due to the fact that the Floating Light Body Technique broke through to the mastery level and fed back into this advanced sword technique.

This allows their proficiency to increase to a certain extent.

This further confirms the principle that secret methods are interconnected.

This gave Xu Feng quite a pleasant surprise.

At the same time, the increase in proficiency represents the enhancement of combat skills.

Xu Feng finally achieved a victory in his battle against Yue Changkong.

After winning once, the number of wins increased.

Ultimately, Xu Feng's win rate stabilized at 4 out of 10 battles.

Xu Feng is already very content with this.

He gained an increase in strength without taking any risks.

They are far superior to those who undergo life-or-death training in the wild to improve their strength.

The time for the summer battle to begin was fast approaching.

A week before the competition, Xu Feng and his family received a notification from the training base.

Because of the talent selection competition, participants and their families are entitled to free direct transportation to the entrance to the dimensional world.

Huang Sen and his wife, on the other hand, received discounted travel opportunities thanks to Xu Feng's chief engineer benefits.

It was only then that Xu Feng learned that the 10 was just the money needed to get from the base to the entrance to the dimensional world.

In addition, there is the option to take a connecting train between the two regions, which also requires paying a fare.

Of course, one cannot simply enter or leave the dimensional realm at will.

Many ordinary people come here after going through the procedures handled by the company, and naturally, they also need the company's consent to leave.

If you resign and leave directly, you will need to pay another fee.

In short, it's definitely not something you can return to Earth for 10.

On the day of return.

Many people in the base set off at the same time.

The airport was packed with people that day.

The base directly opened ten flights specifically for this competition.

Xu Feng's family tidied up early in the morning, simply carrying a few boxes and putting all their valuables into their storage rings.

They then met up with Huang Sen's family at the entrance and drove straight to the airport.

Also traveling with them were Li Suifeng, Luo Feng, and even Li Tianlang, among others.

The base has almost every martial artist who is available, wealthy, and capable.

They will all participate in this grand event for global martial arts geniuses in various ways.

Upon arriving at the airport, Xu Feng finally felt the intense atmosphere of the upcoming competition.

The entire airport was covered with promotional posters for the Battle of Geniuses, featuring talented martial artists from various cities.

Xu Feng even saw a poster of the three people belonging to Base Nine, with Lu Fei standing to Yue Changkong's right.

"Mom! Look! That's you!!" Xiao Dan exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the huge poster above her head.

It attracted the attention of many passersby.

People flocked to Lu Fei, cheering and encouraging her: "Go for it!"

"Go, Xiao Lu! Bring glory to Base 9!"

"Go, Miss Lu!!"

Lu Fei responded politely to each question, while Xu Feng held Xiao Dan tightly, afraid that she would get lost.

Soon, they arrived at the VIP waiting room, and Xu Feng glanced around.

Well, they're all acquaintances.

"Wow! So many delicious foods!"

Xiao Dan had never been inside a VIP waiting room.

Therefore, everything here is very new and exciting.

She held Lu Fei's hand, looking here and touching there, running around curiously.

Finally, I happily picked up a plate and started taking a little bit of everything at the buffet, enjoying the taste.

"Wow! Dad! This is delicious!"

"This is delicious!! Uncle Huang, you have to try this, my skills are almost catching up with yours!"

"Aunt Chen, you should try some! It's a waste not to eat it!"

Like a restaurant owner, Xiao Dan waved her tray around, calling out to this person and that person, then shook her head and chuckled at Xu Feng: "What a country bumpkin."

Lu Fei smiled and said, "We'll take her out to see the world more often in the future. That's how kids are."

Xu Feng smiled and nodded, intending to greet Li Tianlang from a distance.

Then a clear, distinct sneer rang out from the side, making no attempt to conceal its contempt.

Subsequently.

Several figures walked past Lu Fei and Xu Feng, among others. The one who laughed was Fan Min, whom they hadn't seen in a long time and Lu Fei's nemesis.

Beside him stood Cheng Yu, surrounded by several people, like a bright moon surrounded by stars.

After glancing at them, Fan Min scoffed and shook her head: "Country bumpkins, no manners at all!"

The voice was extremely loud.

It attracted the attention of many people in the waiting room.

Xiao Dan was startled.

She immediately stood there, her face pale, somewhat at a loss.

Many people in the VIP room were looking in their direction, which made Xiao Dan even more uneasy.

It was as if they had committed some terrible crime.

Upon hearing this, Xu Feng's face immediately darkened.

Lu Fei turned to look at Fan Min with an even cold expression.

But before he could speak...

A figure suddenly grabbed Xiao Dan, sneered at Fan Min, and said sarcastically, "You're Empress Dowager Cixi's husband, are you bored out of your mind?"

You're like a chick incubating eggs, pretending to be your mother? Huh?

It's like a toad with pimples; it's ugly and deserves a beating.

"This waiting room is so big, and you're the only one getting a haircut with a cleaver, thinking you're different?"

Huang Sen rolled his eyes and then launched into a string of witty remarks.

"The child was naive and got too excited, so no one said anything."

"You think you're so great, laying ostrich eggs like a hen? What are you worth?"

Swish!
The entire waiting room fell silent instantly.

A few "pfft" laughs even came from the corner.

Fan Min's face flushed red instantly, then she roared in fury: "You're asking for it!!"

Meanwhile, several martial artists around Cheng Yu exchanged cold glances almost simultaneously, each stepping forward and closing in on Xu Feng's family.

But at this moment.

A figure slowly walked to Xu Feng's side and stood still.

It was Li Tianlang, who had only one arm.

Then came one figure after another.

Luo Feng, Li Suifeng, Zhou Xian, Wang Leng, Dongfang Xu, Sun Liu.
There was also a figure among them that surprised Xu Feng quite a bit.

As the figure approached, almost everyone present turned their gaze to the striking head of white hair.

Wang Lin smiled slightly at Xu Feng, crossed his arms, and stood beside Xu Feng.

In an instant, the two factions, led by Cheng Yu and Li Tianlang, were openly and brazenly opposed in the waiting room.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze.

The customer service manager stood at a distance, sweating profusely, and dared not come over.

Many martial artists waiting for their flights stood around, watching the scene with a leisurely air.

Outside the crowd, Yue Changkong stood alone in a corner, carrying a long spear on his back, looking curious.

at this time.

A figure broke the somber atmosphere and walked among the crowd.

Yue Linfei smiled at Fan Min and Cheng Yu, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Alright, alright, let's all make money together."

Miss Fan, you are so magnanimous, why get angry over a child? Don't you agree, Minister Cheng?

Cheng Yu's cold gaze swept over Yue Linfei's shoulder and landed on Huang Sen.

However, a figure had already stood in front of Huang Sen, blocking him, and looked at him expressionlessly.

It was Xu Feng.

Upon seeing Xu Feng's face, Cheng Yu smiled.

He shook his head and said softly, "What martial artists fight over is always just pride."

Who could tolerate such insults from a brother?

Regardless of the cause, now that a conflict has arisen, it must be resolved.

Yue Linfei asked with a smile, "Minister Cheng, how do you plan to resolve this?"

"The way martial artists solve problems is through combat."

Cheng Yu smiled and patted Fan Min on the shoulder.

He then looked at Li Tianlang and said, "I think it would be better to let Xiao Fan fight with your people. We can treat it as a friendly match to cool off, what do you say?"

Li Tianlang smiled slightly and turned to look at Lu Fei beside him: "Since Minister Cheng has said so, then—"

However, a figure stepped out of the crowd before Lu Fei: "I'll handle this, Miss Fan. Don't worry, I won't use my mental power; we'll just compete in martial arts."

Xu Feng slowly walked out of the crowd, a sinister smile creeping across his face.

"Without using your mental power? You think you can fight me?" Fan Min immediately laughed in anger.

If Xu Feng were to use his mental power, she really wouldn't be confident.

Can one abandon their strengths and expect a newly promoted casual player to compete with them in close combat?
Does this guy think that marrying Lu Fei will make him a genius like her?
"Fine, I'd like to count how many teeth you actually have!" Fan Min said coldly as she stepped forward.

Xiao Dan gripped Lu Fei's hand tightly, her face full of self-reproach.

Lu Fei looked down at her and smiled: "Be confident, you didn't do anything wrong."

"Watch how Daddy beats her to a pulp, okay?"

Xiao Dan nodded, pursed her lips, put down her plate, and clenched her little fists tightly.

"Just talking isn't fun. Let's add a bet: the loser apologizes to the winner, how about that?"

Xu Feng said with a smile.

Fan Min smirked: "Just an apology? What's the point? How about kneeling down to apologize?"

Xu Feng raised an eyebrow: "Playing this big?"

"Are you scared?" Fan Min asked provocatively.

Xu Feng scoffed, "Not only do you have to kneel down and apologize, you also have to slap yourself in the face."
