The people next to Chu Mo, including Shi Tou, all laughed gleefully.
"Qin Feilong has liked Nangong Xiu since he was a child, and the whole Lingyin Village knows this."
"To reject him, Nangong Xiu even publicly stated that only those of the same generation who could defeat her were qualified to be her man."
Chu Mo asked, puzzled, "What does this have to do with me?"
Shi Tou couldn't help but chuckle: "Didn't Nangong Xiu ask you to go to the back mountain?"
"That's right, but she just wants to exchange something with me. I hope Qin Feilong won't be jealous about it."
Chu Mo was speechless.
Seeing his expression, Stone smiled and explained:
"Nangong Xiu is devoted to cultivation and has a cold personality. She rarely takes the initiative to approach anyone."
"Therefore, even if she really did ask you to exchange something, Qin Feilong would definitely be jealous."
After glancing at him, Stone continued to tease with a smile:
"It's not just him; I'm afraid many young people in the village see you as a competitor."
The other young people drinking with him couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"If we weren't familiar with you, even we would be unhappy, let alone others."
"Exactly! Why does Nangong Xiu treat you differently the moment you arrive? Does being handsome give you the right to be unreasonable?"
Looking at Chu Mo's handsome face, a chubby young man couldn't help but say enviously:
"However, it's not wrong for Nangong Xiu, as a woman, to like handsome men."
The others nodded in agreement.
The conversation only stopped when Namgoong Xiu's opponent took to the stage.
But Chu Mo was disappointed.
Nangong Xiu's opponent simply conceded defeat with a wry smile.
This completely surprised Chu Mo.
But both Namgoong Soo himself and the surrounding audience seemed to take it all for granted.
Seeing his surprised expression, Stone looked completely unfazed.
"Children of the same age who have been bullied by her since they were eight years old for eleven years, it's no wonder they wouldn't have the courage to fight back."
After thinking about it, Chu Mo instantly felt relieved.
With such a prodigy existing, it's truly tragic for children her age.
It's understandable that you wouldn't want to get beaten up in such a situation.
The game continues.
In the twenty-year-old age group, another delicate girl at the upper level of Qi Refining appeared, named Zhou Zhiruo.
This instantly reminded Chu Mo of the name of the female lead in a certain drama.
Ultimately, the woman won first place in her age group.
Until the competition ended at age twenty-two, no more Foundation Establishment cultivators appeared.
Apart from Nangong Xiu.
Chu Mo is twenty-three years old.
He was about to take the stage, and the others cheered him on.
"Brother Chu, you've only been cultivating for a short time, so it's normal that you're not as good as your opponent."
"That's right, don't put pressure on yourself. Everyone fails the first time."
"Yes, it's all about participation!"
Chu Mo was speechless.
What the hell is this first failure? The devil's point is to participate.
Looking at these honest-looking people, he always felt that they were implying something.
For my first time, I lasted seven or eight minutes, so it wasn't too bad, right?
"The 23-year-old contestant, come up and prepare to draw lots."
The old man on the stage spoke loudly, and as soon as he finished speaking, many young people filed in.
The drawing of lots was completed quickly, and Chu Mo drew number one, making him the first to go.
His opponent was a burly girl who also drew the number one lot.
"Please...please advise me."
The girl was very strong, with an average appearance and a slightly dark complexion.
Looking at Chu Mo's handsome face, she was clearly a little shy.
"please!"
Chu Mo returned the greeting with clasped hands.
"You...you go first, I'm afraid I might hurt you if I don't use my full strength."
The girl said with a slight nervousness.
These words immediately drew a burst of laughter from those around them, with many people laughing so hard they were doubled over.
Even Shi Tou and the others were laughing so hard their eyes were practically slits.
"Chu Mo, why don't you surrender? Don't let Sister Yingying hurt you."
"That's right, Sister Yingying is at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. You've only been cultivating for a few months, so it's normal that you're not as good as her."
There were quite a few young girls around who loudly and kindly reminded him.
"Heh, someone just said I'm no match for him. I wonder if he's still being stubborn now?"
Qin Feilong, sitting on the sidelines, laughed smugly with a look of schadenfreude.
This guy, relying on being the patriarch's disciple, dares to covet Sister Xiuxiu? He's like a toad trying to eat swan meat.
In his heart, among all the geniuses in Lingyin Village, only he was worthy of Sister Xiuxiu.
He was the second most talented person in Lingyin Village, only slightly less talented than Sister Xiuxiu.
The others are not worth mentioning.
Hearing the surrounding chatter, the burly girl clearly realized she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly explained:
"I don't mean to look down on you, I just think... you haven't been cultivating for very long."
Chu Mo could tell that the other party wasn't intentionally humiliating him, but genuinely worried about getting hurt, so he shook his head and smiled:
"It's okay, I know."
It seems the whole village knows that I've only been cultivating for a few months.
He didn't say anything more.
After reminding the girl, he swung his hand and slapped her in mid-air with a casual and elegant gesture.
But the churning air currents were turbulent, domineering, and fierce.
Seeing this, not only the girl, but also the surrounding audience were extremely surprised.
This momentum doesn't seem like someone who's only been cultivating for a few months.
It must be at least mid-level Qi Refining!
Seeing that the girl was friendly, Chu Mo did not use his full strength.
Otherwise, it would be rather unkind to slap someone away with one blow.
The two fought evenly for several minutes before Chu Mo unleashed a palm strike from mid-air, sending his opponent flying several meters away.
