"Come now, we're all reasonable people here. Why make things difficult?"
"You can put on an act for those ignorant trash, fine. But putting on an act in front of us? That's a bit much."
One of them spread his hands and addressed Chu Feng with a mocking tone.
Hearing those words, the juniors present felt a sting of displeasure.
They could tell quite well that the "ignorant trash" the man referred to was none other than them.
It was clear just how arrogant these people were.
But since their opponents were far too powerful and had every right to be arrogant, all they could do was swallow their anger in silence.
Upon sensing that a major confrontation was about to break out, many had already retreated to the side, and some had even fled the area entirely, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.
In truth, anyone who still dared to stay and watch was either bold or foolish.
"Don't assume everyone is like you. Just because you're not a junior doesn't mean I'm not," Chu Feng said. And as he spoke, his expression conveyed a clear emotion — he held these people in utter contempt.
"Thick skin doesn't even begin to cover it."
Facing Chu Feng like this, their words only grew more cutting.
"Friend, we aren't the type to bully the young."
"If you can truly prove that you're a junior, we won't lay a finger on you. We'll drop the matter entirely and won't even ask for the Spirit World Jade."
The one who had spoken to Chu Feng first addressed him again.
"That's simple enough. Set up a formation and verify junior status. You build it," Chu Feng said.
"Good. Straightforward."
That man nodded, and as he spoke, he immediately began setting up a formation.
Before long, a barrier gate stood erected before Chu Feng.
However, the man's method of constructing the formation was remarkably discreet — he was deliberately concealing the full extent of his abilities.
As a result, even Chu Feng could not discern what level the man's Spirit World techniques had reached.
But one thing was certain: his mastery of the Spirit World arts was no lower than Chu Feng's.
"Go ahead and pass through the gate, friend."
"A junior can pass through. Anyone who isn't a junior cannot."
"If you truly can walk through this barrier gate and prove yourself a junior, then we brothers will leave immediately and offer you our apologies," the man said.
"Fine." As he spoke, Chu Feng began walking toward the barrier gate.
The moment Chu Feng moved, every pair of eyes fixed upon him.
They all wanted to know — was Chu Feng truly a junior?
If he was, then this would absolutely be an event that shook the entire Reincarnation Upper Realm, and perhaps even the entire Myriad Heavens Star Domain.
Because a Spirit World genius of this caliber had never been heard of before — which meant the Myriad Heavens Star Domain had never produced anyone like him.
At that moment, the Bug Pattern-level Sacred Robe Spirit World Master whom Chu Feng had previously defeated had also gotten back to his feet.
Watching Chu Feng actually walk toward the barrier gate, he sneered with cold derision. "Hmph, he really has pushed shamelessness to a whole new level — actually going through with it. I'd like to see just how long he can keep up the act."
