“Senior, since you enjoy watching spirit technique duels between juniors, how about I spar with your disciple?”
“We’ll use this Ancient Spirit Domain map fragment as the wager.”
“If your disciple wins, the Ancient Spirit Domain map fragment in my possession will be yours.”
“If I win, Senior, you’ll hand over one of your Ancient Spirit Domain map fragments to me.”
“What do you think, Senior?”
Chu Feng asked.
“Well, well, it seems I misjudged you.”
“You, young one, have quite the courage.”
“Very well, I’ll grant you this chance to face my disciple.”
The Beast-Taming Venerable, at this point, turned to his disciple, Li Fengxue, “Fengxue, go easy. Don’t harm this junior.”
“Master, rest assured, I know my limits. It’s just a spar, so I’ll naturally stop short of hurting him.”
Though Li Fengxue said this, a smile curled at the corner of his mouth. He then looked at Chu Feng, saying, “You and I will set up formations, one attacking, one defending.”
“The time to set up the formations will be within half a cup of tea.”
“If you can break my formation and I can’t break yours, I lose.”
“If I can break your formation and you can’t break mine, I win.”
“As for a draw, no need to elaborate.”
“Of course, a draw is impossible.”
Li Fengxue’s words brimmed with confidence.
“That’s boring. How about we both set up an offensive formation within half a cup of tea and attack each other directly? What do you think?”
Chu Feng said.
“What? Direct attack?”
Chu Feng’s words shocked not only Li Fengxue but everyone present.
This proposal was an extremely brutal form of duel, one that could easily injure the opponent.
In normal spars, no one would choose this method.
It was typically reserved for life-and-death battles.
“Brother Chu Feng, a spar should be kept light. There’s no need for such a method.”
Seeing the situation, Yuan Shu quickly spoke up.
Having sparred with Li Fengxue, he knew full well that Li Fengxue was no pushover.
This man was sinister and ruthless.
If they used this method, unless Chu Feng was absolutely certain of victory, he would surely be injured by Li Fengxue.
Though he knew Chu Feng’s spirit techniques were impressive, Li Fengxue was a spirit master who had mastered the First Rank of Dragon Transformation.
The First Rank of Dragon Transformation was comparable to the power of a Second Rank Supreme.
“Brother Yuan Shu, this is a duel between me and this young brother. You don’t need to interfere.”
At this moment, Li Fengxue glanced at Yuan Shu before turning back to Chu Feng.
“Young brother, you’re quite straightforward.”
“I think your proposal is excellent. Let’s compete as you suggested.”
When Li Fengxue said this, a glint of sinister ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
“Brother Chu Feng, think carefully.”
Yuan Shu, still uneasy, couldn’t help but speak again.
“Yuan Shu, let them decide their own duel.”
At this moment, Master Tang Chen suddenly spoke.
“Brother Yuan Shu, don’t worry. It’s just a spar.”
Chu Feng also spoke up.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu could say no more.
“Young brother, since the rules are set, are you ready?”
Li Fengxue asked Chu Feng with a sly smile, his expression full of ill intent.
“Ready.”
Chu Feng nodded.
His smile also radiated confidence.
“Let’s begin then.”
As Li Fengxue spoke, he immediately started setting up his formation.
Chu Feng, naturally, did the same.
This time, the formation Li Fengxue set up was quite different from the one used against Yuan Shu.
Previously, when facing Yuan Shu, perhaps to make him underestimate it, Li Fengxue’s formation appeared unremarkable, not like a carefully crafted array.
But this time, his formation was formidable, its presence overwhelming.
During the setup, the heavens and earth trembled, showcasing the power of his formation.
Watching Li Fengxue’s formation, his master, the Beast-Taming Venerable, nodded repeatedly, occasionally glancing at Master Tang Chen.
His eyes were filled with smugness.
It was as if he was saying, “What do you think, Tang Chen? Isn’t my disciple far superior to yours?”
Li Fengxue was doing this deliberately.
He wanted to show off in front of Master Tang Chen, to give him a comparison, to make him see how inferior his disciple was.
And to show how exceptional the disciple trained by the Beast-Taming Venerable was.
But Master Tang Chen and Yuan Shu paid no attention to this despicable master-disciple pair.
Their gazes were fixed on the formation Chu Feng was setting up.
However, Chu Feng’s formation appeared rather ordinary, yet it carried a hint of mystery, making it difficult to gauge its true power.
“Master, I can’t see through Brother Chu Feng’s boundary formation.”
Yuan Shu said to Master Tang Chen via secret transmission, his voice filled with amazement.
When he first met Chu Feng, Chu Feng’s spirit techniques were clearly inferior to his.
Yet now, not much time had passed since their first meeting, and he couldn’t even see through the boundary formation Chu Feng was setting up.
This made him realise that Chu Feng’s spirit techniques might have surpassed his own.
“Master, could it be that Brother Chu Feng has also mastered the First Rank of Dragon Transformation?”
Yuan Shu asked again.
The level of Dragon Transformation one had comprehended was hard to discern unless specifically tested or deliberately revealed by the practitioner. It could only be judged by the power of their formations.
In his view, though Chu Feng’s formation hadn’t yet shown its power, it was so profound that even he couldn’t see through it, suggesting that Chu Feng had likely mastered the First Rank of Dragon Transformation.
“Such progress is almost too fast.”
“No wonder this kid dared to issue a challenge.”
“That old Ox-Nose really found a treasure.”
Master Tang Chen didn’t answer Yuan Shu, but he couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
Compared to Yuan Shu, he too couldn’t fully see through Chu Feng’s formation, and it was precisely because of this that he found Chu Feng remarkable.
