Chapter 67 It Doesn't Matter If We Break Off Ties

Wu Heng glanced at Chu Feng, then suddenly shouted to the crowd, "Since Master Zeng insists on the duel, even if I'm destined to be killed, I will still have a match! My Pill Pavilion has no cowards! However, we can no longer have someone like Master Zeng as a referee!"

This is a blatant slap in the face.

Wu Heng was also furious. In a duel, life and death are left to fate, and he could very well be killed. As an alchemist, he had no fighting experience at all!

However, the betting battle has already begun, and since Zeng Xiao has demanded verification, this fight is unavoidable.

However, Wu Heng now has considerable confidence in Chu Feng. The feeling he had just experienced made him realize that Chu Feng's strength might not be inferior to others.

Some cultivators couldn't help but laugh out loud. As a referee, being questioned was incredibly ironic. Now that they wanted to find another referee, what could you say?

Are you going to cheat again?

Chu Feng laughed loudly, "That's right, a fair and impartial force must act as referee. Otherwise, the three sect leaders will renege on their debt even if they lose!"

Since things have already turned ugly, it doesn't matter anymore. At least in Tianfu City, Zeng Xiao will have to consider the consequences and won't take action.

Once Chu Feng breaks through to the Yuan Dan stage, crushing him will be no different than crushing an ant.

With a large pile of spirit stones, Chu Feng will definitely break through to the Yuan Dan stage with ease.

"The Treasure Pavilion is willing to act as the referee. What do you think?" Just then, a loud voice came from the doorway.

Looking up, the speaker was a ruddy-faced, robust old man, followed by two middle-aged men dressed in weapon refiner robes. Standing at the very back of the group was none other than Zeng Yunxia, ​​whom they hadn't seen for several days.

"So it's Brother Hong, what a pleasure to meet you. It's wonderful that you're willing to be the referee." Wen Yixi greeted them immediately upon seeing them.

Hong Pingbao was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, and he was at the same Venerable realm as Zeng Xiao. With Hong Pingbao around, Zeng Xiao would definitely not dare to play any tricks again.

Zeng Xiao dared to act so arrogantly in front of me, a Venerable Realm expert, because he had powerful backers.

However, Hong Pingbao is a man of great bloodlust. If anyone offends him, he would dare to take action against anyone, not just Zeng Xiao, but even the city lord of Tianfu City.

Because he killed too many people and offended those above him, he was demoted from a Venerable Realm expert to the position of Pavilion Master in Tianfu City.

The people in the hall were somewhat surprised to see Hong Pingbao arrive. What was he doing here when the Pill Pavilion was holding a grand competition? Did the people from the Artifact Pavilion also want to participate in the Pill Refining Grand Competition?

However, the Venerable Realm is a being revered by all, and everyone stepped forward to pay their respects. Even Zeng Xiao pretended to clasp his hands in a fist salute.

However, Zeng Xiao completely ignored Zeng Yunxia. Zeng Yunxia also pretended not to see him.

Hong Pingbao laughed and said, "Everyone, please don't be so polite. I just wanted to come and observe the competition at Danlou, that's all. Your bets were just a coincidence."

Wen Yixi smiled and said, "Brother Hong, you're too kind. With Brother Hong as the referee, they can rest assured." As he spoke, Wen Yixi glanced at Zeng Xiao and the other two.

As for why Hong Pingbao came, Wen Yixi wouldn't ask any more questions. A Venerable Realm expert is a distinguished guest wherever he goes, and no one wants to offend him for no reason.

Hong Pingbao laughed and said, "When I came in, I heard clearly that you wanted to find a cultivator at the first level of Foundation Establishment to fight this one who just broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, right?"

Zeng Xiao quickly stepped forward and said, "Sect Master Hong is right. As long as Pavilion Master Wu wins the fight, it means that his foundation has not been damaged. If he loses, it means that his foundation has been damaged."

Zeng Xiao addressed him as Pavilion Master Hong to remind him that while he was indeed a Venerable Realm expert, he was also the Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion. He could act as a referee, but he had to follow the rules.

Zeng Xiao couldn't help but worry. Hong Pingbao had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. What if he had something to do with Chu Feng? Wouldn't that cause trouble?

His backer could suppress Wen Yixi, a Venerable Realm expert, but not Hong Pingbao of the Artifact Treasure Pavilion. Therefore, Zeng Xiao had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.

Hong Pingbao glanced at Zeng Xiao and said coldly, "Then call the person out. I am here, and I will be fair and just. Anyone who dares to cheat will be slapped to death by me!"

An aura was released, and everyone's hearts sank, feeling as if they couldn't breathe.

The Venerable Realm cultivators already possess their own aura, capable of directly suppressing cultivators of lower realms.

Zeng Xiao didn't speak, but with a wave of his hand, a burly man walked out. This man was half a head taller than Wu Heng, and his cultivation level was indeed at the first level of the Foundation Establishment stage.

After glancing at this person, everyone couldn't help but curse inwardly. Shameless! This person's cultivation level is refined, and it's obvious that he has been breaking through for a long time. You, Zeng Xiao, actually let Wu Heng fight him.

Isn't this sending Wu Heng to his death?

"Bring out your weapons, I'll take a look," Hong Pingbao said calmly.

Zeng Xiao's tricks were within the rules, and there was no way to solve them. However, Hong Pingbao learned a lot from Zeng Yunxia, ​​so he was not worried that Wu Heng would lose.

If it weren't for Zeng Yunxia, ​​Hong Pingbao would never have made this trip.

Zeng laughed and said, "Wu Er, take out your weapons. Wu Heng, take out your weapons too. Please let Pavilion Master Hong inspect them."

Wu Er took out a sword. The sword is the ancestor of all weapons, and many people choose to use it. However, there are relatively few true masters of swordsmanship.

Chu Feng pursed his lips, casually took out a longsword and handed it to Wu Heng: "You use this sword."

Zeng Xiao glanced at the sword in Chu Feng's hand and the sword in Wu Er's hand; both were mid-grade mortal weapons, and their quality looked about the same. He didn't say anything.

When Hong Pingbao saw the longsword Chu Feng took out, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. As a fifth-grade weapon refiner, his eyesight was definitely better than most people present.

He could tell at a glance that the longsword in Chu Feng's hand was definitely a top-grade mid-level mortal weapon.

Wu Er's strength might be slightly higher than Wu Heng's, but he would definitely be suppressed in terms of weaponry.

Looking at Wu Heng again, Hong Pingbao discovered that his true essence was in no way weaker than Wu Er's, which was rather strange.

Therefore, it's hard to say who will win or lose.

So, Hong Pingbao took out a low-grade magic weapon shaped like a platform and threw it out.

The platform was no bigger than the palm of my hand, but once it was placed on the ground, it was a hundred meters in diameter.

Hong Pingbao pointed to the platform and said, "Both of your longswords are second-grade mortal weapons, and your skill levels are similar. You two can begin your duel. However, swords have no eyes, and you must bear the consequences of your own actions."

After Zeng Yunxia returned to Tianfu City, he praised Chu Feng to the skies in front of Hong Pingbao.

Moreover, Zeng Yunxia not only fully recovered from his injuries, but also broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

What surprised Hong Pingbao even more was that Zeng Yunxia's cultivation level was much more stable than that of the disciples of those big families and sects.

This made Hong Pingbao very interested in Chu Feng!

Would someone like that take a gamble they're not sure of winning?
