"I merely have a suggestion. The God Domain Selection has already begun, and none of us should waste everyone's time."
"If you believe that
"You both enter the Death Gate — whoever comes out first wins. How about that?"
"Hmph, I have no objections whatsoever." Chu Haoyan said dismissively.
"Chu Feng, what about you?" Chu Ruoshi turned her gaze toward Chu Feng.
Chu Feng did not answer, even though Chu Haoyan still had his hand gripping his collar, provocatively humiliating him.
Even though he could feel the skeptical gazes of everyone present, Chu Feng still gave no response.
It wasn't that Chu Feng was afraid — how could he possibly fear this Chu Haoyan?
It wasn't Chu Haoyan he feared, but
"This matter is nothing more than a sparring match between you and Chu Haoyan. Regardless of the outcome, it has nothing to do with anyone else."
"If anyone targets or seeks revenge against another person because of this match, I, Chu Ruoshi, will step forward to ensure justice is served." Chu Ruoshi said.
Chu Ruoshi was clever — at least far cleverer than most of those present. She did not believe that Chu Feng's prolonged silence stemmed from fear of Chu Haoyan. On the contrary, she had seen that Chu Feng was worried about Chu Yue.
That was why she had spoken those words.
And once Chu Ruoshi said this, the grip of Chu Yue's hand relaxed considerably. It seemed that having Chu Ruoshi as her backing had put her much more at ease.
And so, at that moment, Chu Feng finally spoke two words: "Fine."
"Hmph, fine? Now you're willing? Earlier I asked you to spar and you refused?"
"The tenth level of the Heavenly Lightning Stage, ha ha ha — nothing special at all."
As Chu Haoyan spoke, he actually flung Chu Feng aside with considerable force, sending him stumbling several meters away. The strength was so great that it nearly knocked Chu Feng to the ground.
In that instant, Chu Feng broke free from Chu Yue's grasp. Like a ferocious beast let loose from its cage, the killing intent in his eyes erupted once more.
"What? You're not convinced?" Chu Haoyan asked.
"Enough. Stop wasting time and get inside." Just then, Chu Ruoshi spoke again.
"I don't have time to stand here watching you two bicker. You can go in or not — I'm going in first."
At the same time,
Chu Lingxi's movement was like the signal for the God Domain Selection to begin. Many of those present immediately set off, following her silhouette as they soared into the depths of the gate.
"Hmph, trash. Today I'll give Chu Ruoshi some face. But I'll first show you what a true genius looks like."
"If you're still not convinced, wait until this God Domain Selection is over, and I, Chu Haoyan, will teach you a proper lesson."
With that, Chu Haoyan pointed at Chu Feng, and after finishing his words, he too soared toward the depths of the gate.
As for Chu Feng, he did not immediately set off. Instead, he walked over to Chu Yue and asked with concern, "Sister Chu Yue, are you alright?"
