"With my current extraordinary strength, is there any need for me to participate in this kind of competition? If I really wanted to participate, I'm afraid that you people wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move from me."
Fang Han's gaze was piercing as he coldly stared at Zhao Ziyi, a mocking smile playing on his lips. His words were full of disdain: "Back then, you dared to secretly poison me, and I spared your life. You should be grateful for your incredible luck. With your meager cultivation, you actually dared to dream of winning the Dragon and Phoenix Tournament? It's utterly ridiculous. You're nothing more than a whetstone for my sister Fang Yingxue, as well as Fang Qing, Zhou Chi, and others to hone their skills. Now, you're of no value to me whatsoever. Tomorrow, if you encounter someone from my Fang family, or my prized disciple Gongsun Yaoqin, you will surely suffer a crushing defeat and lose all face."
Before Zhao Ziyi could respond, Su Chun glared angrily at Fang Han, sneering repeatedly, "Hmph, you members of the Fang family aren't even worthy of being my opponents, yet you think you can defeat Sister Ziyi? What a pipe dream!"
"Su Chun, now you've become Zhao Ziyi's lapdog. There's no point in saying anything more to people like you. Let's just wait and see."
Fang Han gave a cold laugh with an indifferent expression.
"Fine! Tomorrow, I will wipe out your entire Fang family and show you my power."
Zhao Ziyi snorted coldly, her tone full of provocation: "As for you saying that Gongsun Yaoqin is your disciple, that is truly shameless. The Gongsun family is one of the top three aristocratic families in Yanming City, while your Fang family is just a second or third-rate family. Would she take you as her master? It's a joke! Of course, if Gongsun Yaoqin were to meet me, she would undoubtedly be defeated."
Upon hearing this, Fang Han merely smiled dismissively, completely losing interest in arguing with Zhao Ziyi.
This woman is still immersed in her own fantasy. Tomorrow, she will fall hard from the clouds and be smashed to pieces.
...
The following day, as dawn broke, the grand Dragon and Phoenix Tournament began as scheduled, and the competition slowly unfolded amidst the anticipation of the crowd.
Banners fluttered and drums thundered, enveloping the entire stadium in a tense yet exciting atmosphere.
The women's group's top 10 to top 5 elimination round was undoubtedly the highlight of the day, with every match being thrilling and captivating.
In this fiercely competitive first round, fate seemed to play a not-so-small joke on Su Chun.
Unfortunately, she was chosen to draw Fang Han's younger sister, Fang Yingxue.
"Fang Han, open your eyes wide and watch carefully as I knock your sister off this stage and make her lose face. Although the rules of the competition clearly state that there is no distinction between life and death, swords have no eyes, and sometimes, some 'accidents' are inevitable."
Su Chun walked gracefully past Fang Han, deliberately lowering her voice, her tone laced with provocation and threat, her eyes gleaming with cunning.
She had the good fortune to meet Fang Yingxue once. At that time, Fang Yingxue was still quite naive and thought that Fang Yingxue was just beginning to learn martial arts and had just entered the realm of Martial Grandmaster. She was no match for her, a high-level Martial Grandmaster.
However, little did she know that a person should be viewed with new eyes after three days of separation.
Fang Yingxue is no longer the naive girl she once was. She is now a powerful cultivator in the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, and her cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, leaving people speechless.
Moreover, Fang Yingxue's combat strength is far beyond that of ordinary people.
She practiced the Eight Desolations Technique, personally taught by Fang Han. This technique was incredibly profound and powerful, making her combat strength approach the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, making her virtually invincible among her peers.
Su Chun's words were undoubtedly a blatant threat to Fang Han, attempting to make him worry about Fang Yingxue's safety and even panic.
She even secretly hoped that Fang Han would lose his composure and do something impulsive that would be detrimental to the Dragon and Phoenix Gathering.
In that case, Fang Han would be caught on the spot and severely punished. At that time, without her and Zhao Ziyi having to do anything themselves, Fang Han would be killed, and all grudges would be settled.
"An accident? You'll soon understand what a real accident is. I'll show you what it means to be caught off guard."
Upon hearing this, Fang Han simply smiled faintly, his expression calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.
That smile contained both disdain for Su Chun's provocation and absolute confidence in Fang Yingxue's strength.
Seeing Fang Han's calm smile, Su Chun felt a strange sense of unease.
But she quickly suppressed this unease, believing that Fang Han was merely feigning composure while inwardly panicking.
With that thought, she leaped lightly onto the arena like a butterfly in flight, ready to face the upcoming battle.
"I've heard that Su Chun's older sister, Su Qianyu, was originally engaged to Fang Yingxue's older brother, Fang Han. The two families were once closely connected, but they eventually became enemies due to various reasons. This competition is probably the time for the two families to settle their long-standing grudges. It's sure to be a spectacle."
"The Fang family is just a small family in Yanming City. What makes them comparable to Su Chun? You must know that Su Chun is now an outer disciple of the Wuji Sect, and she has been in the Wuji Sect for several years. She has mastered the sect's true teachings and is now at the high-level Martial Grandmaster realm. Her combat strength is extremely close to the early Foundation Establishment realm, and her strength should not be underestimated. Even if she doesn't get the top spot in the women's group, she is guaranteed to be in the top five without any suspense. This Fang Yingxue is bound to lose without a doubt and has no chance of winning."
"Then don't underestimate Fang Yingxue. I've heard that most of the pills sold in the pill shops in Tianyuan County now come from the Fang family. They are of superior quality and have remarkable effects. With the Fang family's sudden rise to power, how could Fang Yingxue, as the daughter of the Fang family head, be weak? She must have extraordinary abilities."
