Chapter 442.1
“Fairness” (1)
The corner of Li Yunqi’s mouth twitched, and the smile on his face suddenly became stiff. After a few dry laughs, he said, “I’m not the one who challenged the young city lord, why should the young city lord make things difficult for others?”
“Is it making things difficult for others to force them to do something?” Feng Lingyu looked at Li Yunqi with a half-smile and continued, “Then Brother Li, don’t you think that when this unknown guy challenges me out of nowhere, I’m already giving him a lot of face by agreeing?”
Li Yunqi was speechless for a moment. He also knew very well in his heart that Feng Lingyu could completely refuse Ling Tian’s challenge. There has never been a law in the world that “challenges must be fought.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
As for suppressing one’s realm to have a “fair fight”, it is even more unreasonable.
The reason why Li Yunqi stood up to support Ling Tian was because Ling Tian clearly disliked Feng Lingyu. If Ling Tian can make Feng Lingyu lose face, it will only be a good thing for Li Yunqi.
Even if Ling Tian fails, Li Yunqi and the others will not have any loss.
So in Li Yunqi’s view, supporting Ling Tian is just a matter of a few words, and he doesn’t need to pay any cost at all. As for Ling Tian’s life and death, he didn’t even care about it. Even if Feng Lingyu accidentally killed Ling Tian, he would have more reason to say.
But he didn’t expect that Feng Lingyu would turn the fire on him with just a few words.
Although Li Yunqi is three years older than Feng Lingyu, his strength is far inferior to Feng Lingyu.Three years ago, the two had fought against each other in the freshman competition, and that time, Feng Lingyu swept him off the ring with only two moves.
Now, after three years, Feng Lingyu’s cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds.
The gap between the two sides has not only not narrowed, but has widened.
If the current Li Yunqi really faced the current Feng Lingyu, let alone two moves, he might have to kneel facing just one of Feng Lingyu’s moves.
But if he were to admit defeat directly in front of so many people, it would be even more of a loss of face, and it may even affect his own dao heart, which is not good for his cultivation in the future.
Li Yunqi stayed on the spot for a while, not knowing what to do.
Seeing this, Bai Jingxiu on the side quickly said, “Young city lord, that’s a different matter… You can talk about challenging Brother Li later. But the most important thing right now is the duel with this little brother.”
Although Bai Jingxiu wanted to see Feng Lingyu lose face, Wuling City and Yunjian Pavilion were both very powerful forces, and his Bai Family could not afford to offend even a single one, so there was some leeway for what he said.
Feng Lingyu glanced at him indifferently, and said lightly, “Brother Bai’s words are somewhat reasonable. Then instead of challenging Brother Li, why don’t you get on the arena and have a fair fight with me? Don’t worry, I will never ask Brother Bai to suppress his realm for me!”
Feng Lingyu especially emphasized the words “fair fight” and “suppress his realm”, and the irony was beyond words. When Bai Jingxiu heard this, his face turned ashen. He was already a big realm lower than Feng Lingyu’s cultivation base, what could he suppress?
Someone suddenly stood up from the audience and said to Feng Lingyu, “Young city master, this is your fault. Although Brother Li and Brother Bai are older than you, their cultivation is not as deep as you, even if we were to talk about suppressing realms, it should be you who suppressed it.”
After the man finished speaking, the entire field suddenly fell into silence, and then burst into roars of laughter.
This person seemed to be accusing Feng Lingyu, but he was actually satirizing that Li Yunqi and Bai Jingxiu were older than Feng Lingyu, yet their cultivation base was not as good as Feng Lingyu. If the two sides really match up, it’s really hard to say which side is bullying the small with the big.
Li Yunqi and Bai Jingxiu both blushed and were speechless. Seeing this, the other people who stood up and supported Ling Tian also sat back silently, for fear of being noticed by Feng Lingyu.
After a long while, the laughter gradually stopped. But at this time, someone laughed and said, “Maybe Li Yunqi and Bai Jingxiu can try to suppress their own age, if they can suppress it!”
As soon as the words fell, the laughter started again.
Li Yunqi and Bai Jingxiu lost face greatly this time. But facing the sarcasm of so many people, they were powerless to refute it, so they hurriedly walked out of the auditorium, covering their faces as they fled.
Ling Tian, who was originally in a good situation, suddenly found that no one in the audience dared to speak for him. He pointed at Feng Lingyu indignantly, and said angrily, “You… you are bullying others, what kind of genius are you? What kind of man are you?”
Feng Lingyu’s gaze towards Ling Tian was full of murderous intent.
If it was just a simple challenge, Feng Lingyu would appreciate him somewhat.
But when it comes to someone thinking about his fiancée, he couldn’t bear it.
