That is why this martial arts tournament was held at Juxianzhuang.
You Ju stepped forward and said, "Fellow martial artists, Xiao Feng, this villain, slaughtered my sect, ravaged the Central Plains, and even killed his own master, Master Xuanku. His crimes are inhuman and heinous! Today, we have gathered here to unite the strength of the entire martial arts world to jointly crush this villain!"
You Ji then asked, "Master Xuanbei, what do you think?"
Xuan Bei appeared old and frail, yet his eyes shone brightly, and he exuded a vigorous aura, revealing the unmistakable pressure of a late-stage Grandmaster: "Xiao Feng, this wolf in sheep's clothing, not only killed his mentor but also stole the Yi Jin Jing, the secret manual of our temple. If any fellow practitioners can retrieve the manual, our temple will offer a generous reward."
"What? He actually stole the Yi Jin Jing!"
"Xiao Feng deserved to die! He should be torn to pieces!"
"Don't let me run into him, or I'll definitely kill this villain!"

Upon hearing that Xiao Feng possessed the Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic), many who had been silent immediately spoke up to condemn him.

Xuanbei smiled slightly, not worried at all about others stealing his knowledge. Without profound Buddhist cultivation, wanting to learn the Yi Jin Jing is nothing short of a fool's dream. If someone really comprehends the Yi Jin Jing, it means that this person has a connection with Buddhism, and perhaps Shaolin Temple will have another eminent monk.

"Young Master Duan, it would be best if we didn't get involved."
Kumārajīva patted Duan Yu on the shoulder and offered some words of advice.
Duan Yu said with distress, "Master Kumārajīva, as you know, we were drinking and having fun with Brother Qiao in Bianjing just a few days ago. He must have already gone to the borderlands. How could he have time to slaughter the Central Plains, let alone kill his master and steal the secret manual?"
"This humble monk is unaware; Young Master Duan, please do not speak nonsense."
Kumārajīva shook his head, disassociating himself from the matter.
He didn't care whether Qiao Feng did it or not; he just wanted to extract the Six Meridians Divine Sword from Duan Yu.
