"Isn't your Flame Sect bullying us? This competition was fair! Now you can change the date at will, where is the fairness in that!"
"Who knows if you offended someone and got poisoned? Why should we pay for it? That's not fair!"
Xiao Feng quite admired the leader of one of the minor sects.
Because he actually dared to say that the Flame Sect was unfair in front of so many people.
That's absolutely right. Fairness has become the most ridiculous word to describe this competition!
Even Tianbai Mountain has colluded with the Flame Sect, so where is there any fairness left?
"The victor is king, the loser is villain, the winner is respected. If you have the ability, then fight us directly. If you can make me back down even a little, I will acknowledge your ranking."
"Otherwise, you'll have to compete again. You're just some small sects that I could crush with a flick of my finger, yet you dare to challenge me here?!"
The Flame Sect elder was extremely displeased. He already felt that someone was deliberately plotting against their Flame Sect after such an incident.
I never expected that some small sects would dare to be so arrogant in front of me.
This made him even more unwilling to accept it!
There was even a hint that he wanted to vent his anger directly on the sect leader.
Xiao Feng didn't wait for the Flame Sect elders to do anything shameless before stepping forward himself.
After absorbing all the pressure for the sect leaders of the smaller sects below, he spoke calmly: "It is precisely because you lost to our Qing Sect today that we said we would reschedule the competition for another day."
"It's not impossible to have a rematch, but it should be between your sect and the opponent you drew, instead of making everyone wait for you."
"The results of the matches that have already been played will also be counted in the scores of each sect, and the individual scores that have already been used will also be included."
"Don't drag so many other sects down just because of your one sect. You're supposed to be a prestigious sect, have some shame!"
What Xiao Feng said was actually correct, and it was the best solution.
However, such a solution is only possible under fair circumstances.
Now that things are no longer fair, what Xiao Feng said is somewhat laughable.
But, after all, this is a place that attracts a lot of attention!
The Flame Sect elder looked at Xiao Feng; he knew what had happened the previous night.
Therefore, he couldn't understand why, when it should have been Xiao Feng and the others who were making a fool of themselves in front of so many sects, it had inexplicably become them!
Moreover, those "disillusionment powders" that temporarily deprive people of their spiritual power are carefully concocted by them.
How could they possibly be discovered? And how could they possibly be returned to them?
The three disciples sent earlier have also disappeared without a trace.
Could it be that Xiao Feng and the others discovered what happened last night?
Even if Xiao Feng and the others discovered it, they shouldn't have been given another chance.
After all, Xiao Feng didn't know how to activate the effects of the Disabling Powder.
"Xiao Feng! Are you feeling guilty? You and our Flame Sect have a long-standing feud. You must be afraid that our disciples are stronger than yours, which is why you lost this competition. That's why you deliberately attacked us!"
"I never expected you to be so despicable and shameless. If you have nothing to hide, why did you stand up and object? If you really have the strength, we can always wait until all the disciples of our sect have recovered before we settle the score."
“Our sect’s disciples have been assassinated. This competition is completely unfair. As for your desire to stand up for these small sects, you should first consider whether you can even get through this situation yourself!”
"You yourself are in dire straits, barely able to save yourself, yet you still think about bestowing favors and winning people's hearts. You should first see if you have the ability to do so!"
The Flame Sect elder was extremely arrogant and pointed this out in public.
Xiao Feng deliberately feigned a nervous expression so that the Flame Sect elder would say such things in public.
After all, it was in front of so many sects.
No matter how shameless Tianbai Mountain is, they cannot openly and honestly reveal their sordid affair with the Flame Sect.
If it were just these two sects in private, they could target me however they wanted.
But now, besides the sects, there are also disciples participating in the competition, unless they have no shame.
Otherwise, they would never dare to openly and publicly favor the Flame Sect.
After all, all the disciples from various sects had their belongings checked before arriving here.
But we can make sure there are absolutely no prohibited items.
Moreover, as everyone knows, among the disciples that Xiao Feng and his group brought this time, there were some who knew how to refine pills.
But what's the use of just being able to refine a little bit of low-level Spirit Recovery Pills?
It can cause disciples at the third to fourth level to have their spiritual energy dissipate for a short time, unable to regroup, and their hands and feet to become weak.
This effect is somewhat similar to the Flame Sect's secret treasure—the Disabling Powder.
This is something that all the major sects are aware of.
But who would be willing to so openly and honestly obtain the Flame Sect's favor for the sake of the Azure Sect?
After all, the Qingzong Sect has been much weaker than before in recent years.
Therefore, they are still able to choose what is more important.
All they could do was remain silent and try to downplay the incident.
Let's see how Xiao Feng resolves this. If he truly has the ability to defuse this crisis, then it will be all thanks to him alone.
"So, Elder, you mean you think this poison was administered by your disciple?" Xiao Feng asked with a smile.
"It must be you. Who else could it be?"
“Words are meaningless; you need to provide evidence. Where is the evidence?” Xiao Feng’s words left the other party speechless.
Xiao Feng learned from the interrogation last night that this thing was something the elder had deliberately hidden and brought up himself.
That's why Xiao Feng could ask so confidently, because there was simply no evidence.
Since no evidence could ultimately be presented to accuse them, Tianbai Mountain couldn't simply postpone the matter based on the reaction of the Flame Sect alone.
The game had to continue.
As one of the most powerful rivals of the major sects, the Flame Sect, after reaping the consequences of its own actions, naturally became an easy target for everyone to defeat.
So the preliminary round, which was originally supposed to last three days, was successfully completed in just two days.
Xiao Feng's team basically ranked first in the overall score.
Everyone underestimated the number of disciples from the Azure Sect who came to participate in this competition.
Lu Xue'er originally thought that there were a few who weren't particularly strong, but she didn't expect them to be so lucky.
They fought their way to the end without encountering anything too formidable.
On the contrary, they achieved a relatively high ranking and gained more points overall.
Of the seventeen people who participated in the competition, ten had a perfect record with no losses.
Therefore, their total score and points combined ranked first.
