“Please give the Tao family some face and let us have this opportunity.” The handsome young man, Tao Jinyun, said with a smile. “Of course, the Tao family won’t let you suffer a loss. Afterward, we are willing to offer each of you a top-tier third-grade spiritual pill as compensation.”
The Qinling branch family, although not direct disciples of Qinling, had close ties with them. For other forces, this connection was undoubtedly a source of great pressure.
At this moment, the Wang siblings were clearly hesitating. They were genuinely worried about being targeted by Qinling disciples afterward, which would significantly increase the risks they faced in the secret realm.
“Wang brother, what do you think?” Lu Yijun noticed the Wang siblings’ concerns and hesitations.
“Brother Lu, are you confident?” Wang Lingfeng asked in return.
Inside the secret realm, everyone was there for opportunities, and at such a moment, there was no room for hesitation.
“I am not confident, but my brother Chen Yang should not be afraid.” Lu Yijun directly laid his cards on the table. “If Brother Wang is willing to help me seize this opportunity, I will double the reward and assist you in competing for other opportunities within the secret realm after breaking through.”
A top-tier third-grade spiritual pill was indeed valuable for someone like Chen Fei. However, for a prominent family like the Wang family of Tianyue City or someone like Lu Yijun, a strong second-generation figure, it wasn’t anything rare.
As Tao Jinyun had said, it was merely a form of respect, not an equivalent trade for the opportunity at hand.
Wang Lingfeng understood that Lu Yijun was determined to obtain this chance. Compared to the so-called “respect” offered by the Tao family, Lu Yijun was offering real benefits.
Chen Fei did not voice his opinion, leaving the decision to Lu Yijun. He had no interest in the Tao family, nor did he care about them. He had already agreed to help Lu Yijun fight for this opportunity, even if Qinling disciples were involved. He wouldn’t back down.
“If Brother Wang is worried about retaliation afterward, you can choose to remain neutral. I will still offer you double the top-tier third-grade spiritual pill reward,” Lu Yijun said, seeing the Wang siblings’ hesitation.
“In that case, I’ll leave this battle to Brother Lu and Brother Chen Yang.” Wang Lingfeng cautiously chose to withdraw. The Qinling branch family was not a force to be trifled with.
After saying this, Wang Lingfeng led his sister back, signaling that they would not participate in the struggle.
Seeing this, Chen Fei immediately understood that the Tao family was not to be underestimated. Otherwise, the Wang siblings would not have backed down so easily.
Tao Jinyun was quite satisfied to see them withdraw, but he was naturally displeased that Lu Yijun and Chen Yang still insisted on competing.
“Since when did Silver Moon Academy have such courage? Do you think that just because Chen Yang is a disciple of the Ten Thousand Nations Chamber of Commerce, my Tao family won’t dare to act?” Tao Jinyun snorted coldly. Since they couldn’t negotiate, they had to resolve things with their fists.
Hearing this, Lu Yijun laughed heartily. “Opportunities in the secret realm are rare. We are all prodigies, so why would we retreat without a fight?”
“If I can obtain this opportunity and step into the True Spirit Master realm, I won’t be afraid even if you bring Qinling disciples to back you up.” Lu Yijun took a firm step forward, his aura surging. Layers of mountains manifested, and the ground beneath him cracked, forming deep pits.
His oppressive aura resembled a towering mountain, making it difficult for others to breathe.
If the grand spiritual masters of Yellow Mist City saw this, they would be shocked. This was clearly a sign that his spiritual-grade martial skill had reached great mastery.
Unfortunately, the Tao family disciples weren’t the least bit surprised. Instead, they sneered.
“Achieving great mastery in a mid-level spiritual-grade martial skill? It’s not even perfected. What’s there to boast about?”
Another member of the Tao family, a burly man, stepped forward. His spiritual energy surged, and countless phantoms manifested. He, too, was using a mid-level spiritual-grade martial skill, but his was perfected.
“If this is all you have, I advise you not to seek death.” Another Tao family member stepped forward. His spiritual energy surged, and his martial skill phantoms filled the air—another perfected mid-level spiritual-grade martial skill.
Seeing this, Lu Yijun’s expression shifted slightly. He had always believed himself to be a prodigious talent. Even his grandfather often praised him within Silver Moon Academy.
Yet now, he was facing geniuses from the Tao family, who were even younger than him but had already surpassed him in martial arts attainment.
What was meant to be a display of strength had now turned into embarrassment!
Just as Lu Yijun was caught in a dilemma, Chen Fei stepped forward and stood before him, facing the four Tao family members.
“What’s the point of flaunting your martial skills?”
“Come at me together. If you can land even a single blow on me, I’ll walk away!”
Standing before Lu Yijun, Chen Fei’s spiritual energy surged. His pure energy was so intense that even without activating any martial skills, the air around him cracked from sheer pressure.
With Chen Fei’s current level of spiritual energy, even a second-tier True Spirit Master might not be his equal, let alone these half-step True Spirit Masters from the Tao family.
The invisible pressure of his spiritual energy was like a roaring beast in the ears of the Tao family members, causing their expressions to change drastically.
“No wonder the Ten Thousand Nations Chamber of Commerce values him as a genius disciple.”
“Such powerful spiritual energy is rare. Even among the disciples of Qinling, not everyone possesses this level of power!”
The Tao family members often interacted with Qinling disciples, so their standards were high.
“Tao Jinyun, this is my brother Chen Yang. Do you think you can match him?” Lu Yijun laughed as he stepped forward. “How about this—your Tao family can give us some face and retreat. In return, my brother will personally offer you a top-tier third-grade spiritual pill as a token of goodwill.”
Tao Jinyun and his companions were furious at Lu Yijun’s words. This fat man had no real strength yet dared to mock them?
“Lu Yijun! If you have the guts, duel me one-on-one!” The burly Tao Zhenkong, unable to bear the humiliation, pointed at Lu Yijun and shouted.
“If I lose, I will give up this opportunity!” Tao Zhenkong roared.
Lu Yijun wasn’t foolish. Why would he accept such a challenge? Smirking, he said, “You want to duel me? Beat my brother first, then we’ll talk.”
His blatant reliance on Chen Fei was indeed infuriating, but at this moment, the Tao family members had no confidence in facing Chen Fei’s overwhelming spiritual energy.
However, how could they willingly give up the opportunity without a fight?
With the imminent fall of the Wanluo King Vine and no other contenders in sight, the Tao family members decided to act.
“Chen Yang, let’s see how you fare against the four of us!” Tao Jinyun declared as he unleashed his full aura and charged at Chen Fei.
Seeing him make a move, the other three Tao family members followed suit, launching their attacks simultaneously!
