At this moment, Su Boyuan stood floating in the air, holding his sword, exuding a dangerous aura.
Although the school's barrier was too strong for a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator like him to break easily, the Immortal Examination was about to begin.
All the candidates had already entered the examination hall when this sudden change occurred, which caused quite a few people to whisper among themselves.
The chief examiner sent to supervise the examination also relayed the message to Ma Guangzhi.
"Principal Ma, the Immortal Examination has already begun. In order not to affect the progress, please handle this matter immediately."
This supervisor is required by every school that serves as an examination venue. He is dispatched by a certain immortal from the central courtyard's sacrificial altar, representing fairness and impartiality.
When the examiner spoke, Ma Guangzhi dared not delay and immediately flew out of the barrier to discuss the matter with the two.
"Gentlemen, this is the Immortal Examination. You did not sponsor our school's Immortal Examination, so what brings you here?"
Su Boyuan raised his hands and clasped his hands in a fist salute, "Principal Ma, we were just passing by, so we came in to take a look and catch up with some old friends."
"An old friend?" Ma Guangzhi was skeptical.
Does he know anyone in the school who knows people from the Guiyuan Sword Sect?
"Don't worry, we will never disrupt the immortal examination," Su Boyuan assured him.
Sun Lu also spoke up, "Everyone knows the consequences of disrupting the Immortal Examination. Do you think we're here to offer our heads?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Guangzhi nodded slightly.
As the head of the school, he was naturally aware of the consequences of disrupting the celestial examination.
The laws of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom clearly state: Anyone who intentionally disrupts the Immortal Examination will be punished by death if they are not a True Person.
Yes, this is indeed a capital offense.
It seems unlikely that these two would willingly bring about their own demise.
Below, Chen Yi looked at the two faces, his brows furrowed slightly.
Su Boyuan?
Of course he remembered this person; it was the same person who had given him the letter of recommendation from the Guiyuan Sword Sect.
Otherwise, a Foundation Establishment battle would have definitely broken out the day he emerged from the Yinshan Secret Realm.
That letter of recommendation is still in his storage ring, the cover still unopened.
He had a premonition that these two people were coming for him.
Before long, Su Boyuan and Sun Lu were granted access to the Xiande Temple for the examination.
They landed precisely in the stands, right next to Chen Yi...
"Long time no see, young friend Chen Yi!" Su Boyuan squinted his eyes and said in a feigned friendly manner.
Chen Yi simply said, "You've come to see me?"
"clever!"
Su Boyuan got straight to the point.
"A few days ago, my Guiyuan Sword Sect negotiated a business deal with Tianbao Pavilion. It was almost finalized, but on the night before the contract was to be signed, they suddenly changed their minds and signed a contract with another company."
"We realized that someone had poached our member, so we went to investigate, and to our surprise, we found the name of our young friend Chen Yi."
"At first I thought it was someone with the same name, but it really is you..."
Chen Yi smiled faintly: "No contract means the cooperation wasn't reached. What's the point of talking about something that wasn't reached?"
Anger immediately flashed across Sun Lu's face.
"The companies behind you are not small companies. Without my great-grandfather's connections, how could you be where you are today?"
He directly attributed Chen Yi's current achievements to the fact that Chen Yi had taken away the opportunity of the Yinshan Sect.
Su Boyuan remained calm.
After all, he's not one to cause trouble.
His greatest passion was trying to decipher his master's intentions.
As the great-grandson of Yuan Yi Zhenren, Sun Lu naturally tried every means to gain favor with him.
To his surprise, Chen Yi remained remarkably calm.
Due to the short timeframe, they didn't have time to investigate which force was behind Chen Yi's company.
However, his Guiyuan Sword Sect is one of the top sects in the entire Crimson Dragon Kingdom, so he is quite confident.
“We don’t want to make things too strained. As long as you apologize for stealing our business, we can let it go,” Su Boyuan hinted.
As a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, Chen Yi should have been terrified when he confronted him face-to-face.
Just as he was recounting how he should apologize to Chen Yi, he was met with the other party's indifferent eyes.
"Apologize? You think you're worthy?"
Su Boyuan was stunned.
Sun Lu immediately retorted, "What arrogance! Do you know how many Golden Core cultivators my Guiyuan Sword Sect has?"
Chen Yi shook his head.
Li Yun, standing to the side, sneered and transmitted his voice, "Junior Brother Chen, fight them to the bitter end."
The Hidden Moon Sect is a force to be reckoned with, even the Central Court has to give them a wide berth. Does the mere Returning Origin Sword Sect really think it's invincible?
Upon hearing this, Chen Yi nodded.
Of course, he was never going to apologize.
"Gentlemen, is there some misunderstanding?" Zhao Liangpeng had a good impression of Chen Yi and wanted to help mediate.
After all, the Guiyuan Sword Sect has three Golden Core cultivators—it's said there were originally two, but recently there's been one more...
In short, even the main branch of the Zhao family dared not provoke such a behemoth.
"This is a matter between the Guiyuan Sword Sect and him, you must not interfere!" Sun Lu domineeringly stopped Zhao Liangpeng.
Zhao Liangpeng's face immediately turned ugly.
He, a dignified late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, was actually silenced by a junior in the early-stage Foundation Establishment stage.
At this moment, Chen Yi spoke up, "Chairman Zhao, we can handle this matter ourselves, so please don't trouble yourself."
Zhao Liangpeng then said with some skepticism, "Okay, then be careful."
Seeing this, Sun Lu smiled with satisfaction, "Very good. If you want to apologize, then obediently hand over the Nine Yin Earth Fire True Spirit Qi, and remove the sponsoring advertisement and replace it with our Guiyuan Sword Sect's advertisement!"
Chen Yi secretly found it laughable.
Is this the business competition in the cultivation world?
Isn't this just a gang of robbers and thugs?
"I'll say it again, you think you're worthy of an apology?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Lu was dumbfounded.
Has this kid been kicked in the head by a donkey?
Even the shrewd Su Boyuan vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
Could it be that the other party has a stronger background than we thought?
But since things had already come to this point, he couldn't very well offer any advice or dissuasion.
Given Sun Lu's personality, even if he tried to persuade the other party to leave, it would probably be to no avail.
On the contrary, it would make the other party think I'm a coward, and if they go back and complain to their master, that would be very disadvantageous for me...
He might even lose his title as the senior disciple.
Therefore, he chose to remain silent.
It was all Sun Lu's willful and reckless behavior; it had nothing to do with Su Boyuan.
He was simply staying by Sun Lu's side to protect his safety...
"Very well! I see you've already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, why don't you have a match with me? Whoever loses will apologize!" Sun Lu looked at Chen Yi arrogantly.
He was called a genius from a young age and even received personal guidance from his great-grandfather.
Among his peers in the Crimson Dragon Kingdom, he considered himself to be a rare rival!
Chen Yi was no less worthy of this title.
Not to mention that he had already established his foundation, even before he had established his foundation, when his cultivation was at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, he dared to break into the Zhao family's cave and fight the Frost Bone Demon Elephant.
Although the Frostbone Demon Elephant was injured at the time, it was only by relying on the ancestral sword formation of the Zhao family ancestral hall that it was finally killed.
But even then, he already possessed the ability to fight against ordinary people in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
This Sun Lu is probably not an ordinary Human Foundation Establishment cultivator; he is most likely an Earth Foundation Establishment cultivator.
However, in terms of strength, the opponent is at most capable of fighting a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, which is worlds apart from Chen Yi's current level.
"To avoid interfering with the immortal examination, let's go outside and fight!"
After saying this, Sun Lu flew directly away from the barrier...
