When Dongfang Zhengyu heard his brother say this, he swallowed back the words of objection that were on the tip of his tongue.
He knew that taking a tough approach would definitely work, but he also knew that it wouldn't be the best way, so he accepted Dongfang Zhengyu's suggestion.
He transmitted his voice to Qin Feng and the other two:
"Young friends, this was my poor arrangement. If you are willing to spar with them, then go ahead. If not, I will think of another way."
Don't worry, I won't change my promise to you.
Qin Feng thought for a moment and replied, "We are willing to give it a try. We wonder how the competition will be conducted, who our opponents are, and what their cultivation levels are?"
Dongfang Zhengyu explained:
"We, the Dongfang family, the Sima family, the Chiyang Dao Palace, the Senluo Hall, the Jiugongfang, and the Guanxuan Pavilion, have made an agreement."
Everyone who enters the Ziyuan Mining Area is a young genius whose bone age is no more than a thousand years old.
Our Dongfang family also followed this standard, selecting the 100 strongest individuals under the age of 1,000.
Your opponents this time are the three ranked last: Dongfang Siyao, Dongfang Junjie, and Dongfang Jiaqian.
Siyao is at the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm, while the other two are at the middle stage.
After he finished speaking, he remembered something else, "By the way, I think all three of you young friends are exceptionally talented, and your bone age should not exceed a thousand years."
Qin Feng responded, "You flatter me, senior. Our bone age hasn't exceeded the limit."
Dongfang Zhengyu breathed a sigh of relief; if the person had been older, it would have been a real problem.
He didn't actually know much about Qin Feng and the other two, nor did he know their exact strength.
They traveled at the same speed as Dongfang Yue in the Celestial Realm.
Qin Feng, Leng Yuexi, and Ao Ling have excellent control over their own power, and their specific levels cannot be discerned without their participation in the battle.
Dongfang Zhengyu only heard Dongfang Yue say that it was very powerful, and he was busy avenging his daughter, so he didn't ask for details.
Dongfang Zhengyu had actually prepared for Qin Feng and his two companions to be defeated, and he was quite satisfied with his own disciples.
Take Dongfang Siyao for example. She was only a little over a hundred years old, but she had already reached the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm. She would be considered a genius anywhere.
Seeing that the situation was almost settled, Dongfang Zheng asked again:
"What do you all think of my suggestion? Siyao, Junjie, Jiaqian, this concerns the three of you, so please give your opinions."
Dongfang Siyao readily agreed, "Siyao is willing to follow the arrangements."
Dongfang Junjie looked at Qin Feng and the other two and accepted the suggestion.
Dongfang Jiaqian nodded, "Sparring is fine, but how should we compete? They are guests who have been kind to our Dongfang family, and it wouldn't be good if they got hurt."
Her words were extremely arrogant, as if she had already predicted that Qin Feng and his two companions would inevitably lose.
The other members of the Dongfang family didn't think there was anything wrong with what they said. Even the three ranked lower were still members of the Dongfang family, and they were not people that could be compared to ordinary people.
Among the younger generation, compared to their peers, the members of the Dongfang family are no less capable than anyone else.
Many in the Dongfang family believed that Dongfang Zhengyi's suggestion was a way for the family head to refuse Qin Feng and his two companions.
Even Dongfang Zhengyu had this idea.
Of the entire Dongfang family, perhaps only Dongfang Yue had confidence in Qin Feng and his companions, as she had personally witnessed their strength.
Especially Qin Feng, who is already a Celestial King.
Dongfang Yue chuckled to herself. She knew, but she wouldn't say it, so they wouldn't look down on her. That person was the one who saved her life.
Dongfang Zhengyi said seriously, "Jiaqian is right. It's fine to spar, but we mustn't hurt our harmony. Let's stop here when we've reached our goal."
No one had any objections.
Dongfang Zhengyu picked up the conversation and gave the order:
"Alright, if everyone agrees, let's begin."
"Just do it in the plaza in front of the main hall. Remember, this is a friendly spar, not a life-or-death struggle, so everyone keep a low profile."
Dongfang Junjie soared into the air and landed in the empty square. Full of vigor, his bright eyes looked at Qin Feng and challenged him to a duel:
"Among the six of us, you and I are the only men. How about I let you be my opponent? Don't worry, since you saved Dongfang Yue, I will go easy on you."
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He could tell at a glance that the other party's cultivation level was mid-stage Golden Immortal. He was a little embarrassed to make a move, as this would be bullying the weak.
Ao Ling stared wide-eyed at Dongfang Junjie in astonishment. This guy really knew how to choose; he picked a target that was impossible for her to defeat.
Leng Yuexi also silently shook her head.
Dongfang Yue couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Dongfang Zhengyu gave his daughter a strange look. "Yue'er, why are you smiling so happily?"
Dongfang Yue's smile faded. "It's nothing, I just thought of something interesting."
Seeing Qin Feng pause for a moment, Dongfang Junjie assumed he was scared and reminded him:
"Fellow Daoist, are you afraid? You need to think this through carefully. This is an opportunity that the Grand Elder has secured for you, so you must seize it."
Even if you're no match for them, don't give up so easily. Failure is also a form of training. Be brave and fight me!
Hearing Dongfang Junjie's righteous and earnest lecturing, Dongfang Yue couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
Qin Feng stood up helplessly and walked to the square with steady, unhurried steps.
Dongfang Junjie nodded. "Not bad, you've successfully taken the first step. Let's begin. I'll let you make the first move."
Many members of the Dongfang family felt that he was very dignified and polite, perfectly representing the image of the Dongfang family, and they all cast admiring glances at him.
Qin Feng looked at the magnanimous Dongfang Junjie and found it quite amusing. He had no choice but to slowly release his Immortal King realm aura.
His action immediately stunned Dongfang Junjie, who stared at Qin Feng in disbelief.
The scene erupted in chaos.
"This aura seems to be from the Immortal King realm."
"What? He's at the Immortal King realm?"
"What's the point of comparing a Celestial King to a Golden Immortal?"
"Oh dear, thinking about what Junjie just said, I feel so ashamed."
Dongfang Zheng's eyes lit up as he looked at Qin Feng in the square with surprise.
Dongfang Zhengyu's expression was quite interesting. He had spent almost a month with Qin Feng and the other two, and only now did he realize that Qin Feng was a Celestial King.
He gave Qin Feng a deep look; someone who could control their own power to this extent was definitely not simple.
He now understood why Dongfang Yue had been secretly laughing, and doing so slyly—she had known all along.
He glared angrily at his daughter, "Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Dongfang Yue looked completely innocent and shrugged, "You didn't ask, and besides, didn't I already tell you that they're very powerful?"
Dongfang Zhengyu was quite helpless. He turned to Dongfang Junjie in the square and said, "Alright, Junjie, we don't need to compete anymore. Qin Feng has won. You don't have any objections, do you?"
Dongfang Junjie, who had been so spirited just moments before, left the square dejectedly.
He had no desire to fight Qin Feng. Recalling his previous encouragement to Qin Feng, he felt like a clown performing.
