This challenge imdiately caught the attention of everyone present.
“This is… That’s a disciple of the Shangling Sword Sect from the Ling River Basin, seemingly nad Sword Thirteen!
It makes sense that he would be the first to step up and challenge Su Jingzhen.
Apparently, this guy has admired Jian Ling for a long ti, but Jian Ling has never done him any favors.
It must have been a big blow to him when Jian Ling showed such kindness to Su Jingzhen today.”
“Ha, today Jian Ling, along with Fairy Xuan Su and the other goddesses, showed such kindness to Su Jingzhen, I wonder how many fellow Daoists are secretly heartbroken.
During the challenge segnt of the Banquet of Elegance, I wonder how many will point their swords at Su Jingzhen.”
“But Sword Thirteen has already reached the late stage of the Tribulation Realm. I fear that Su Jingzhen might not dare to accept the challenge.”
“…”
The servants of the Floating World Villa were continuously serving liquor and delicacies to every table in the garden.
However, no one in the garden was interested at the mont.
Sword Thirteen’s appearance on the stage had already stirred everyone’s emotions.
Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but shift back and forth between Sword Thirteen and Su Jingzhen.
Obviously, everyone was extrely interested in seeing them fight.
But Su Jingzhen rely picked up a cup of spirit wine from the table and raised it to Sword Thirteen, without any other indication or intention to step up.
“What, Daoist Su, are you afraid?”
Sword Thirteen’s late-stage Tribulation Realm aura flared up again.
His sword intent was exceedingly sharp, and his gaze was firmly locked onto Su Jingzhen. The sword qi from the sword on his back overflowed, and his fighting spirit was intensely strong.
This guy had a huge grudge against Su Jingzhen.
But Su Jingzhen shook his head, “I’m not strong enough, I can’t beat you.”
This reaction was unexpected.
In all the previous Four Waters Martial Arts Competitions and Elegance Banquets, no one had ever conceded defeat before the match even began.
At the Four Waters Region Banquet of Elegance, even though the strength of the young geniuses from each basin could be seen, no one would go all out.
Mostly, it was just a show of respect.
So far, no one had directly refused to fight.
“This… If he found an excuse, it would be better.
To actually admit defeat without even an excuse, it’s quite interesting.”
“Surrounded by so many goddesses, yet he’s as timid as a mouse. I wonder what those goddesses are thinking.”
“But this way, Jian Ling, Fairy Xuan Su, and others should see through his cowardly nature and won’t show him any more favor.”
“…”
The crowd had mixed reactions to Su Jingzhen’s actions.
So called him a coward, while others praised his honesty.
The surrounding Jian Ling, Fairy Xuan Su, and others also gave him a curious glance.
They smiled faintly, but didn’t say much more.
“You!”
Seeing Su Jingzhen’s deanor, Sword Thirteen on the stage was stunned for a mont.
Su Jingzhen’s reason left him with no point to argue.
He could only reluctantly step back. Since the other party had conceded, he couldn’t force them to fight, right?
Aside from Su Jingzhen, these resentful individuals didn’t want to challenge anyone else.
Since the challenges had started, another person imdiately stepped onto the stage and also wanted to challenge Su Jingzhen.
However, just like before, Su Jingzhen raised a cup to him and didn’t decide to fight.
“Su concedes!”
Directly conceding didn’t seem to be a shaful thing for Su Jingzhen.
His current cultivation level was genuinely just at the Body Sovereign Realm. Fighting with this strength, he naturally couldn’t win.
The Four Waters Martial Arts Competition hadn’t even officially started yet. It was impossible to expect him to suddenly boost his strength.
Then, another five or six people stepped up directly onto the stage, all of them wanting to challenge Su Jingzhen.
But even against the Unity Realm, Su Jingzhen simply said that he couldn’t beat them and refused to fight.
Everyone was furious, but they had no way to deal with him.
After all, the Banquet of Elegance was based on mutual consent.
If Su Jingzhen refused, who could force him?
After he refused 78 tis in a row, the crowd gradually lost interest in Su Jingzhen.
Although they despised him in their hearts, they also saw that he really wouldn’t fight.
The Banquet of Elegance returned to its normal course.
The challenging eyes of the crowd gradually turned away from Su Jingzhen.
The fights began to unfold one by one.
But Su Jingzhen began to enjoy the delicacies in front of him.
He seed completely indifferent to the fights on the stage.
During the ti he refused each challenge, he had already earned points from Xuening and Qiu Yaoyao.
Each of them gave him a triple hit.
【Emotional Connection 24】
【Emotional Connection 24】
【Emotional Connection 24】
【Emotional Connection 20】
【…】
【Remaining Available Points: 8101】
The points surged to over 8,000.
“Stinky Little Brother, I’ve put everything on you this ti.
And I’ve already boasted about it.
Aren’t you going to show sothing now?
If you just keep conceding, it might make a laughing stock”.
Qiu Yaoyao, still holding Su Jingzhen’s arm, laughed.
Even though she said it this way, her tone was quite relaxed.
It seed like she didn’t take it too seriously.
Upon hearing her words, Yan Xia and Xuening also looked over curiously.
“Brother Su, a few of them were just Unity Realm, they shouldn’t be your match.”
Yan Xia and Xuening still didn’t know the extent of Su Jingzhen’s combat strength.
If they weren’t curious, then it would be a lie. Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen smiled again.
“Those stronger than , I can’t defeat them. As for those weaker than , why fight them now?
It’s just to expose my strength. Wouldn’t it be more interesting to shock them at the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition?”
Upon hearing this, the three won fell silent again.
But their eyes sparkled.
Su Jingzhen’s words proved that he wasn’t afraid of this Four Waters Martial Arts Competition.
This made everyone even more curious about his true combat strength.
Seeing his confident deanor, everyone really wanted to dissect and study him.
But since he insisted on not fighting, even Qiu Yaoyao couldn’t ask any more.
Xuan Jin’s expression remained unchanged, and no one knew what he was thinking.
This ti, no one tried to provoke Su Jingzhen with low-level taunts.
After eating and drinking his fill, Su Jingzhen looked at the sowhat bored Xuening and Yan Xia.
“Are you full? If you’re done, let’s go.”
For him, the banquet was just about eating and drinking.
The fighting and killing should be left to the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition.
Do what’s appropriate in the appropriate environnt.
Xuening and Yan Xia imdiately nodded their heads.
Then, the four of them stood up.
Even with a fierce battle between two Tribulation Realm cultivators on the stage in the center of the garden, it couldn’t attract their attention.
