On the stage, Yang Feng collapsed on the ground. His face was pale as he gripped his bloody shoulder.
At the same time, black blood seeped out from the corners of his mouth.
“He lost! Young Master Feng actually lost!” Although they had expected this outcome, the crowd was still in disbelief after witnessing it for themselves.
“Third Young Master really defeated Young Master Feng.”
“That’s too scary. It looks like only Young Master Qinghe in the Fengyang prefecture— No, perhaps even he can’t defeat Third Young Master!”
Everyone agitatedly discussed.
Yang Feng glared at Third Young Master and bellowed, “You used poison! You actually used poison!”
“I don’t need to use such methods on you,” Third Young Master mockingly replied, “My sword is called the Venomous Dragon Sword. That black fog earlier was not the dragon soul, but a poison that corroded the Dragon-Coiling soul. As you’re one with the Dragon-Coiling Golden Spear, it’s natural for you to also get poisoned.”
As he spoke, he tossed the antidote onto the ground as if he was showing mercy. “You should get lost too.”
Yang Feng wrigged his body in humiliation. After retrieving the antidote, he exited the stage while holding onto his shoulder.
When he returned to his seat, he told Hong Qinghe in a hoarse voice, “I lost too. Brother Hong, it’s up to you now.”
Hong Qinghe nodded with a solemn expression. “Although he’s from the Prefectural Governor’s mansion, he looks down on Fengyang prefecture’s men. Don’t worry, I’ll defeat him and reclaim Wuxin’s and your dignity.”
Hong Qinghe was about to stand up after speaking.
“Hong Qinghe, don’t be anxious. You’ll get your turn! However, now’s not the time,” Third Young Master said and jumped off the battle stage.
His actions stunned the crowd, but they understood it a while later. “Third Young Master consecutively won two battles. Moreover, he was fighting geniuses like Young Master Feng and Young Master Wuxin. He must have spent a lot of energy and needs to rest.”
“Nevertheless, since he’s taking a rest, his battle will be more exciting!”
“By then, I’m afraid that no one here could defeat him!”
“Yeah, Third Young Master is unexpectedly powerful. I have a feeling that the strongest person amongst Fengyang prefecture’s younger generation would have to change.”
After Third Young Master left the stage, the crowd still sneaked glances at him as they softly discussed.
“Lightning Battle Armor and the Venomous Dragon Sword. Third Young Master is not an easy opponent. Xiaoxiao, how about you don’t fight him? I’ll settle him later,” Lou Qianxue said in a soft voice as she looked at Lou Xiaoxiao.
“No!” Lou Xiaoxiao firmly shook her head, behaving unlike her usual self. “I’ve seen a few battles. I understand my current capabilities and I think that there’s still hope if I fight Third Young Master. Qianxue, when I attack later, you mustn’t be surprised.”
“Oh?” Her words surprised Lou Qianxue for a while. “Now that you’re saying this, I’m looking forward to your fight. However, you must always be careful.”
“Don’t worry. I’m your sister anyway, and I know my limits.”
After the most notable battles of the Fenghua Banquet ended, everyone started to disperse. The lower-ranking people started to battle again.
After watching a few battles, Ye Zhuixun found them to be very boring. Hence, he stood up and pointed at Yang Yan. “You! Young Master Yang! I want to challenge you. Do you dare to accept my challenge?”
“Young Master Yang?” Everyone looked on with a surprised expression. “Someone is challenging Young Master Yang again!”
They looked at Ye Zhuixun and realized that he was someone new. Therefore, they asked in confusion, “Who is he? He sounds so proud.”
Master Huo’s eyes lit up. “Master Gongsun, isn’t he the person you brought here?”
Gong Sunheng nodded. “Yes, it’s him.”
“He’s your disciple. He must be very strong.”
Gong Sunheng laughed and shook his head. “No, he’s not my disciple. His master is someone else.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Lou Qianxue.
Master Huo was both embarrassed and shocked. “I saw you teaching him earlier, so I thought… Haha! I didn’t expect his master to be someone else. What a pity! If he had followed you into the Alchemy King’s mansion, his future would definitely be…”
