"Who are you calling weak? Who do you think you are?"
At that moment, the junior disciples of the Seven Realms Sacred Residence were furious. Every single one of them bared their teeth and glared fiercely...
As if to prove themselves, they released the power of their formations.
And indeed, their strength was generally not low—the weakest among them was at the White Dragon Sacred Robe rank, while the strongest only reached the Gray Dragon Sacred Robe.
From this, it was clear that the strongest junior disciple from the Seven Realms Sacred Residence present was none other than this Jie Yu.
Facing the baring and glaring juniors from the Seven Realms Sacred Residence, Chu Feng wasn't angered.
"Yelling at me won't help. It wasn't me who thought you were weak—it's this Jie Yu who thinks you're weak."
"Otherwise, why wouldn't he team up with you? He just thinks you'll drag him down." Chu Feng pointed the spear directly at Jie Yu.
Hearing this, the junior disciples of the Seven Realms Sacred Residence subconsciously looked toward Jie Yu. Though they didn't dare to rebuke him openly, their eyes clearly waited for an explanation.
After all, crude as it was, what Chu Feng said actually made sense.
And naturally, that pressure fell upon Jie Yu.
Jie Yu's expression was extremely ugly at that moment. He hadn't expected Chu Feng to be so bold. Others, upon seeing someone from the Seven Realms Sacred Residence, would try every possible way to flatter them.
But Chu Feng was different. Not only did he dare to compete with him, he actually dared to sow discord?
"Fellow disciples, don't listen to his nonsense. How could I possibly think you're weak?"
"The reason I refused is because I wanted to face them alone."
"If we teamed up, wouldn't that be bullying them?"
After saying this, Jie Yu looked toward Chu Feng and Bai Yunqing.
"You two can team up, but we don't need to. I'm enough by myself." Jie Yu said.
This guy wasn't stupid—he used this method to defuse the awkwardness.
But Chu Feng wasn't flustered in the slightest. He simply said, "In that case, isn't it us bullying you now?"
"It doesn't matter," Jie Yu said.
"Don't say it doesn't matter. We believe in fairness."
"So, I'll compete with you alone. Just you and me," Chu Feng said.
"You? You're sure?" Jie Yu asked.
"Sure," Chu Feng replied.
"It's not impossible, but my contest with Bai Yunqing was because he lost to me before, so I didn't ask for a wager."
"But you are different," Jie Yu said.
"Fine. If I lose, what do you want?" Chu Feng asked.
"Looking at your poor appearance, you probably don't have anything valuable. Isn't Bai Yunqing calling you Big Brother?"
"Alright then, if you lose, from now on whenever you see me, you have to call me 'Grandpa,'" Jie Yu declared.
"Don't even think about it!" Bai Yunqing blurted out, then turned to Chu Feng. "Big Brother, don't agree to him!"
Bai Yunqing naturally knew Chu Feng was standing up for him, which made him even less willing to let Chu Feng take such a risk on his behalf.
For people like them, losing some treasures didn't matter, but losing their dignity—that was the true shame.
"It's fine." Chu Feng smiled, then looked at Jie Yu. "I said, I like things to be fair."
As he spoke, Chu Feng opened his palm, and a wave of formation power emerged.
"White Dragon Sacred Robe?" Upon discovering Chu Feng was at the White Dragon Sacred Robe rank, some of the onlookers began to look at him differently.
After all, for a junior disciple to possess the White Dragon Sacred Robe was proof enough of his exceptional talent in formations.
The formation power Chu Feng released condensed into a longevity lock.
"If I lose, not only will I call you 'Grandpa,' I'll also give you a longevity lock."
"But if you lose, you give me the longevity lock you're holding. And from now on, you have to call me 'Grandpa' whenever you see me."
After saying this, Chu Feng immediately added, "You're not too scared, are you?"
"Scared? What a joke."
"I agree to your terms," Jie Yu said with a cold smile, looking utterly confident.
Chu Feng wasn't surprised by this. He had deliberately released his formation power to reveal he was at the White Dragon Sacred Robe rank.
His goal was to make Jie Yu believe that his mastery of formations was actually inferior to Bai Yunqing's.
And sure enough, Jie Yu, who had been somewhat cautious before, now completely looked down upon Chu Feng after discovering his rank.
Rumble—
Just then, the large gate on the mountain peak began to slowly open.
"The time has come. The trial begins," the old woman announced.
Seeing this, the junior disciples of the Seven Realms Sacred Residence immediately set off, preparing to step inside.
And Chu Feng and Bai Yunqing also prepared to follow them.
