Lin taoli and Xu Xiangqian stepped onto the arena, bowing to each other with a mutual respect before taking a few steps back.
The atmosphere in the arena suddenly grew tense, even unrelated onlookers couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for the two figures on the stage.
Cheng Laoye and Cheng Jiahui were particularly anxious. They never expected such an event to unfold on this day.
Both of their gazes turned towards the only woman seated at the chief's position, Cheng Yanjuan.
Since Tianluo Nation was renowned for its martial prowess, it was a remarkable achievement for any woman to even have a seat in the main hall, let alone the chief's position.
Of course, if that woman possessed formidable martial strength, it would be a different matter altogether. However, looking at Cheng Yanjuan's delicate and charming appearance, it seemed unlikely that she could overpower anyone on the spot. In fact, even the younger generation of any of the Three Great Families could easily defeat her. But, given her arrival with Lin taoli and their affectionate relationship, nobody dared to question or express any dissatisfaction about her presence in the chief's seat.
Upon noticing the gazes of their elders, Cheng Yanjuan smiled coquettishly, radiating an indescribable beauty. She softly spoke, "Tao Li has his own discretion, rest assured
Cheng Ningsheng and his son nodded with a smile, partly relieved. Without her assurance, one might have thought that Lin family deliberately sought trouble.
Xu Yinjie's gaze swept across her enchanting face, his mind as clear as a mirror. He knew perfectly well that Lin Taoli's appearance on stage was entirely instigated by her. It was undoubtedly a reaction to the news of the millennium blood ginseng's disappearance and the injury inflicted upon their father, yet unable to find the perpetrator. Thus, they directed their anger towards the Xu family.
He inwardly sighed, realizing this was an undeserved calamity. However, he had made up his mind that even if Xu Xiangqian suffered a loss, the Xu family would never seek revenge on their behalf.
The two individuals confronted each other on the arena, and a powerful aura gradually emanated from their bodies. After a while, the expressions of the onlookers changed
THE Zhou brothers, Zhou Quanyi and Zhou Quanming, exchanged a glance, both seeing the extreme shock in each other's eyes. Zhou Quanming extended his hand under the cover of the table and made a gesture in the shape of the number "nine."
Zhou Quanyi nodded slightly, his face becoming extremely serious, devoid of any trace of a smile.
Xu Xiangqian's name was renowned in Taicang County. He was a rare ninth-level internal force expert and could easily rank in the top ten among all cultivators in the county.
From the moment he stood firm, the overwhelming aura emanating from him made everyone nearby feel breathless and overwhelmed.
In the courtyard, people who had initially crowded towards the arena suddenly retreated to the outskirts. Even the servants responsible for maintaining order were no exception.
Xu Xiangqian had yet to make a move, but under his oppressive aura, he had already gained the upper hand.
However, on the opposite side, Lin Taoli, the young expert from the Lin family, stood with his hands behind his back, seemingly indifferent to the opponent before him.
Not only that, although Lin Taoli's aura had not erupted, he stood there unmoving, like an imposing mountain range, completely unfazed.
Xu Xiangqian's face turned grave. His original worries had long been cast aside. Originally, under his father's signal, he had planned to hold back and only display half of his skills. But now, standing face to face with the opponent, he realized he had underestimated them.
