Chapter 6337: Challenging All of Them

Before Chu Feng’s emergence, Xianhai Shaoyu had occupied the title of the strongest prodigy in the present era. And Little Fishy’s talent was rumored to have surpassed her brother’s.

The two of them were worthy of being the representatives of the present era juniors.

Yet, they had fallen in defeat today.

“What about Chu Feng? Why isn’t he doing anything? Isn’t he here too?” a voice in the crowd suddenly echoed. It was a questioning tone as if interrogating a criminal.

The other present-era cultivators also began voicing out.

“That’s right! Where’s Chu Feng? Isn’t he the strongest present-era junior?”

“He made a huge splash in the Nine Heavens’ Zenith and opposed even the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. He should be here too. He just saved Qin Xuan not long ago and massacred one of our present era’s sects!”

“The Ancient Era’s cultivators are oppressing us now, yet he is nowhere to be found despite being a present-era cultivator. He is only fearless when before us, present-era cultivators, but he hides like a tortoise when it comes to the Ancient Era cultivators.”

“Pui! He’s not worthy of being our present era’s strongest prodigy! No wonder the Ancient Era’s cultivators look down on us so much!”

Little Fishy, Xianhai Shaoyu, and the others were infuriated to hear those words.

“What nonsense are you spouting?” Little Fishy glared at the crowd, looking as if she would slaughter them all.

“Is there anything wrong with what we said? Chu Feng acts mighty before us present-era cultivators as if nothing can scare him, so why is he hiding before Ancient Era cultivators here? He only dares to act tough on his home turf.”

The crowd was no longer afraid of Little Fishy, knowing they would likely die here. What was there to fear when their fates were already sealed?

“You’re courting death!”

Little Fishy and Xianhai Shaoyu stepped forth to teach those slanderers a lesson.

Boom!

But their attacks were neutralized before they could land. The elders of those present-era juniors had intervened.

“You’re venting on fellow present-era cultivators after losing to Ancient Era prodigies. I guess that’s all there is to Immortal Sea Fish Clansmen,” one of the present-era elders scoffed.

They would never have dared to speak to Little Fishy like that in the past, but their true colors were showing now that their fates were sealed.

Uwa!

Cries of agony ensued. The elders who had stopped Little Fishy and Xianhai Shaoyu’s earlier attacks collapsed to the ground, having sustained severe injuries.

Zhao Daobin had stepped in!

“They are esteemed guests of our Zhao Immortal Clan. How dare you make a move on them?” Zhao Daobin roared.

The faces of the present-era cultivators turned pale. They belatedly realized that the Zhao Immortal Clan saw Xianhai Shaoyu and the others differently from the rest of them.

They had misread the situation. Now that the Zhao Immortal Clan had gotten involved, they immediately fell silent. They were the ones who only dared to act tough in their home turf.

Their attitudes maddened Zhao Daobin, so he continued, “You’re mere ants in the eyes of our Zhao Immortal Clan. We don’t need to negotiate with you to obtain your formation power. Why do you think we even bothered allowing you to challenge our prodigies?

“Let me tell you—it’s because of Chu Feng. We gave you this chance because he promised to do us a favor. If not for him, you wouldn’t have even been granted this opportunity!”

...

“This...”

The present-era cultivators exchanged looks. Those who had insulted Chu Feng looked ashamed of themselves.

A brilliant radiance suddenly shone from the hall where Chu Feng and the others were. The light dissipated, and Zhao Zhuyin and Chu Feng stepped out.

“Chu Feng, how are you feeling?” Zhao Zhuyin quickly supported Chu Feng.

Her face was glowing red, and she looked full of energy. She was even radiating a faint light. She must have benefited a lot from the formation.

In contrast, Chu Feng was emaciated, and his skin was extremely dry as if someone had sucked the moisture out of his body. It would have been tough to recognize him without taking a close look.

“I’m fine.” Chu Feng pushed aside Zhao Zhuyin. He turned to Eighth Zhao and asked, “Zhao Immortal Clan’s Clan Chief, how’s the formation I activated?”

“It’s perfect. Young friend Chu Feng, you live up to your reputation,” Eighth Zhao complimented. He meant those words from the bottom of his heart, and his glowing eyes were proof of that.

“I told you my formation energy is enough. You don’t need those people,” Chu Feng said.

“Chu Feng, you don’t need to stand up for them. They aren’t worthy,” Zhao Zhuyin said.

Despite being occupied with the activation of the formation, they could still sense what was happening outside. Naturally, they also heard the present-era cultivators slandering Chu Feng.

“Young friend Chu Feng, the rules are the rules, but I can make an exception on your account. You can freely pick any prodigy present to challenge, regardless of their cultivation. If you defeat them, you can take one person away with you.”

Eighth Zhao was doing Chu Feng a favor. He thought the people whom Chu Feng was concerned about were just Qin Xuan, Xianhai Shaoyu, and Little Fishy.

Chu Feng was so strong that it was questionable if the Zhao Immortal Clan’s juniors could threaten him despite his weakened state, so he decided to let Chu Feng pick any opponent he wanted. That was as good as letting the three of them go.

“You said it yourself.”

Chu Feng flew above the square.

“Who’s that?”

No one recognized the emaciated man who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, though Little Fishy, Xianhai Shaoyu, and even the wounded Qin Xuan flew to his side right away.

“Chu Feng.”

“Big brother.”

The three of them supported Chu Feng. They could sense his frailness and were worried.

“Chu Feng? Is that Chu Feng?”

“Why is he in that state?”

The crowd was baffled.

“He’s in this state because he’s vying for a chance with you. We could have stayed out of this battle, but your performance was too disappointing. The ones who disgraced the present-era cultivators are you!” Qin Xuan spat.

The crowd lowered their heads in shame.

Little Fishy and Xianhai Shaoyu paid no heed to the crowd. They were only concerned about Chu Feng’s safety.

“I’m fine.” Chu Feng flashed a radiant smile at Little Fishy despite his emaciated state.

He turned to Zhao Daobin and said, “I, Chu Feng from the present era, would like to challenge the Zhao Immortal Clan’s prodigies.”

Zhao Daobin had received orders from Eighth Zhao, so he asked, “Young hero Chu Feng, who do you want to challenge? Feel free to choose anyone.”

“I’ll challenge everyone,” Chu Feng said.
