Chapter 1257 - 1258: I Want His Room
Did my best, with no regrets.
How can I say I’ve tried my best if I don’t join the Fengyun Banquet?
"Brother Hong, go ahead!" Xiao Tianyu said with a smile.
"Alright!" Hong Yuan nodded and turned to leave.
Hong Yiyi gazed at Xiao Tianyu with her beautiful eyes: "Brother Xiao, are you doing all this for me? I only have three years left; it’s not worth risking your life!"
"You’re overthinking!" Xiao Tianyu knocked gently on Hong Yiyi’s head, and seeing her eyes begin to moisten, feeling quite distressed, Xiao Tianyu chuckled heartily: "What if your Brother Xiao accidentally makes it to the top three?"
"Brother Xiao, that’s not funny at all!" Hong Yiyi pouted. If it were an ordinary day, she would break into a smile, but today she didn’t. Xiao Tianyu was challenging the Fengyun Banquet at the Divine Level Seventh Layer for her.
The Fengyun Banquet, even though it has rules that once one admits defeat, the opponent must not continue to attack, is still perilous and unpredictable. Over the years, many heroes have perished at the Fengyun Banquet.
"Alright, stop crying, let’s go out and take a look!" Xiao Tianyu said.
"Mm!" Hong Yiyi held onto Xiao Tianyu’s arm as they strolled out of the room toward the battle stage. He had heard from Hong Yuan that many young talents had recently come to Baiyu Tower.
Soon, they reached the edge of the battlefield, and indeed, the aura of the people here was more intense than those from previous days, clearly the result of survival of the fittest.
The Fang Family is selecting.
Su Mei’Er sat quietly on the side, her beautiful eyes showing no ripples. Her fiery figure attracted many glances. Nobody dared to challenge her these days, unless they had a death wish—she was ranked sixth in the Fengyun Banquet.
The eighth-ranked Lu Niu also had no challengers, his burly figure standing there like a small mountain.
"Where’s your brother?" Xiao Tianyu didn’t see Hong Yuan in the crowd, and Hong Yiyi’s beautiful eyes flickered: "He might have gone to register for the quota!"
"Oh!" Xiao Tianyu nodded, not paying much attention.
"Brother Xiao, look quickly, it’s Demon Sword Zhan Tian!" At this moment, Hong Yiyi looked to the left with excitement in her eyes: "Brother Xiao, that’s Demon Sword Zhan Tian, famed for never losing at the same level!"
Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu turned his gaze and saw a young man in black strolling over, his eyes sharp as a sword, terrifyingly fierce. Instantly, Xiao Tianyu felt a powerful Sword Qi sweeping over him.
"Indeed very strong!" Xiao Tianyu responded calmly: "This person’s aura is no weaker than Su Mei’Er’s, it seems he will definitely make it into the top ten!" Xiao Tianyu also showed a hint of appreciation.
"Top ten?" Hong Yiyi looked at Xiao Tianyu with a peculiar gaze: "He came declaring to aim for the top three!"
Zhan Tian’s arrival made the crowd stand in respect, his reputation known far and wide. After breaking through to the Divine Level Ninth Layer, he declared his intent to claim the top three.
If these words came from anyone else, they would be laughed at, but coming from Zhan Tian, it seemed normal, for he had not lost at the same level, earning the title of Demon Sword among his peers.
"Brother Xiao, the tenth-ranked Liu Feng is also here!" Hong Yiyi pointed elsewhere, and another youthful figure strolled over, his long hair fluttering and his demeanor extraordinary. Although he was the last in the Fengyun Banquet, who dared to underestimate him?
By now, half of the Fengyun Banquet’s elite had been recruited by the Fang Family, clearly with determined aims at the top three.
The appearance of Zhan Tian and Liu Feng caused quite a stir. Except for a few Fengyun Banquet elites who remained unmoved, others seemed quite excited.
The Fang Family siblings personally came out to greet them, with another person constantly showing flattering expressions behind them, yet the Fang siblings maintained a proud demeanor, not paying him any attention. Xiao Tianyu and Hong Yiyi looked closely, and it was Hong Yuan.
Seeing this, Hong Yiyi’s body trembled slightly.
Xiao Tianyu’s brow furrowed, this was the second time already.
So, Xiao Tianyu stood not far away, speaking: "Brother Hong, since they’re not accepting, just give up. Aren’t there other three great families?"
Swish, swish~
Upon hearing this, many glances fell on Xiao Tianyu with peculiar interest, even the Fang siblings glanced at him, then ignored him. For a nobody like Xiao Tianyu, they didn’t pay him any mind.
"The other three great families?" At this moment, the newly arrived Liu Feng spoke: "Who is this guy? So arrogant!"
"Just an ignorant guy, Brother Liu, no need to mind him!" Fang Hai said with a smile: "Divine Level Seventh Layer, and he dares want a quota from our Fang Family to compete in the Fengyun Banquet!"
This statement made it clear that Fang Hai had learned about Xiao Tianyu from Hong Yuan, but it’s understandable, as registering a quota requires stating one’s Martial Arts Cultivation.
"Divine Level Seventh Layer?" With these words, more people looked at Xiao Tianyu, even the serene Su Mei’Er was no exception. But when she saw Xiao Tianyu’s face, her phoenix-like brows furrowed slightly: "It’s him?"
When Xiao Tianyu arrived at Baiyu Tower, he had commented behind her back about her looks, which she overheard, so she still had an impression of Xiao Tianyu.
"Does Fairy Su know this person?" Fang Yue smiled lightly. If there were some connection with Su Mei’Er, Fang Yue wouldn’t mind giving special consideration.
"Just an arrogant person, I don’t know him!" Su Mei’Er shook her head, then cast her gaze elsewhere, not giving Xiao Tianyu another look. Her first impression of him was that of an arrogant man.
On the other side.
Liu Feng gave Xiao Tianyu a glance, then spoke to Fang Hai: "So naïve, someone like this, I could crush with a single slap!"
This statement was undisguised, and Xiao Tianyu naturally heard it too, frowning slightly, his gaze sharper. He seemed not to know Liu Feng at all, yet Liu Feng humiliated him publicly, showing no respect.
The others present also showed peculiar interest, thinking he was unlucky to have provoked Liu Feng.
"Why are you staring at me?" Liu Feng looked at Xiao Tianyu and smiled indifferently: "Divine Level Seventh Layer, do you even deserve to stay here?"
Saying this, Liu Feng no longer looked at Xiao Tianyu, instead addressing Fang Hai: "Brother Fang, which room is he staying in?"
"Reporting to Young Master Liu, Room Number One in the Earth area!" The shopkeeper respectfully replied to Liu Feng, who said lightly: "I want that room!"
"This..." The shopkeeper was a little troubled, Fang Hai gave a cold look: "Brother Liu asks you to handle it, just do it, no need for so much nonsense!"
"Yes, yes!" The shopkeeper nodded, with Fang Family’s Young Master speaking, he dared not object and had to comply.
The others heard this and had strange expressions, thinking that fellow had gotten himself into trouble offending Liu Feng, being kicked out of the inn by the Fang Family, a massive humiliation.
Moreover, to dream of getting a quota from the Fang Family at the Divine Level Seventh Layer, it was like dreaming with open eyes.
