Asura Mad Emperor

Zhao Tianheng glanced at the Qin Family members and, seeing that Qinchuan had not yet arrived, couldn't help but loudly sneer, "Is Qinchuan too afraid to keep the appointment, hiding from the battle? And he just sends you bunch of trash to come over."

The faces of the Qin Family members suddenly turned ugly, and just as they were about to respond, a faint voice suddenly came from behind, "Who said I'm hiding from the battle, too afraid to keep the appointment?"

"Just because of a tiny Zhao Family, an insect-like thing, you think I would hide from the battle? You're giving yourself too much credit."

The faint voice carried through.

"Mansion Master!"

The Qin Family members turned their heads to look and saw a tall, slender youth casually strolling into the venue.

"It's the Mansion Master who has returned!"

The Qin Family members were immediately shaken with surprise and joy, quickly rising from their seats and hurriedly walking towards Qinchuan to greet him.

Qinchuan, with an air of composure, walked in from outside the venue, a palm-sized, majestic and striking fire-red parrot perching on his shoulder.

This fire-red parrot had glossy feathers and bright, spirited eyes, and was extremely adorable.

However, no one would have thought that this majestic and striking parrot was actually a ferocious demon beast of the fourth rank at the ninth grade peak!

It was none other than the Crimson Flame Bird in reduced form.

After racing from the Great Wilderness Core to the outskirts of Great Wilderness City, borne upon the demon wind, Qinchuan then sent the lesser demons within the wind back to the Great Wilderness Core.

Afterwards, he immediately entered the city with the size-reduced Crimson Flame Bird and rushed to this place.

The Qin Family members converged in front of Qinchuan, all full of excitement, "Mansion Master, you've finally made it back in time."

Qinchuan nodded, making his way to the Qin Family's designated seats amidst the throng of his family members.

At the Zhao Family's seats, Zhao Tianheng's face sank upon hearing Qinchuan's earlier words, and he said with a cold look in his eyes, "What a big mouth you have!"

"Qinchuan, your Qin Family is just a declining second-rate family, and yet you dare to disregard my Zhao Family, overestimating yourself!"

He then stood up tall and paid respects to the City Lord Mansion Master and the various major families around the venue, then turned his head towards Qinchuan and sneered coldly, "Qinchuan, now that all the major families are gathered here, with the City Lord himself as a witness, shall we start the duel on our bet now?"

"Since the Zhao Family is so eager to give their property to the Qin Family, how could we not accept such generosity?"

A smile tugged at Qinchuan's lips as he spoke.

"Big words are easy to say; I hope you can still be so arrogant later!"

Zhao Tianheng sneered in response, then turned to a young Zhao Family member and commanded, "Zhao Yue, go and meet the Qin Family's prodigy."

Zhao Yue was a standout among the Zhao Family's younger generation, second only to Zhao Wujie in strength, possessing the peak cultivation level of the Tempering Body Realm's Nine Layers and was quite renowned among the youths of Great Wilderness City.

Hearing Zhao Tianheng's words, Zhao Yue immediately leaped onto the Martial Combat Platform.

Seeing Zhao Yue's appearance, Zhao Wujie beside Zhao Tianheng couldn't help but feel slightly regretful, "With Zhao Yue stepping forward, it seems I won't need to make a move. No one from the Qin Family's younger generation could possibly be his match."

Zhao Tianheng smiled and said, "Wu Ji, with your current cultivation level, none of these Qin Family members are worthy to cross hands with you. Your sight should be set on higher goals. Only the top geniuses from each city are worth your effort."

"Father is right in his teaching."

Zhao Wujie responded, glancing at the Qin Family members with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Once Zhao Yue was on the Martial Combat Platform, he looked down at the Qin Family members with disdain, his tone arrogant, "Zhao Family's Zhao Yue is here; who from the Qin Family will come forth to fight?"

"Mansion Master..."

The eyes of the younger generation of the Qin Family blazed with fighting spirit, all eager and jostling for a chance to fight.

Qinchuan glanced over at Zhao Yue on the Martial Combat Platform, but couldn't help raising an eyebrow, "Has the Zhao Family run out of younger generation members, to actually send out a mere lackey at the Peak of the Ninth Grade in the Tempering Body Realm?"

Immediately afterward, Qinchuan's gaze swept over Qin Shan, Qin He, and the others, he spoke indifferently, "Qin He, this time, it will be you who goes up to fight against this Zhao Yue."

"However, you can only use thirty percent of your strength, and you must win within three moves. Can you do it?"

Upon hearing this, Qin He was immediately overjoyed, quickly assuring, "Mansion Master, rest assured, I will definitely not disappoint you."

Having said that, he immediately stepped onto the Martial Combat Platform, making Qin Shan and the others look on with envy.

Because they all wanted to take the stage, to fiercely suppress the Zhao Family's members and vent their frustration.

In the venue, many people who heard Qinchuan's remark suddenly froze, feeling speechless and thinking that Qinchuan's words were just too arrogant.

However, Zhao Tianheng snorted coldly, jeering, "Still daring to make such arrogant claims at this time, I really want to see how you handle the aftermath!"

On the Martial Combat Platform.

Zhao Yue looked at Qin He who had stepped onto the Martial Combat Platform, speaking disdainfully, "Qin He, you are no match for me. If you don't want to be utterly defeated later, kneel down now, give me a few loud kowtows, and maybe I will be a bit more lenient with my blows later."

But Qin He simply responded, "That's exactly what I was going to say to you."

"Hmph, since you're seeking death, don't blame me for being merciless!"

Caught off guard by his words, Zhao Yue let out a cold laugh, drawing his knife and charging at Zhao Yue, "Gale Knife Technique!"

In an instant, streaks of bright knife light flashed, bringing up gusts of wind, with an imposing momentum.

"Good!"

Below the Martial Combat Platform, Zhao Tianheng couldn't help but slap the table and exclaim in admiration when he saw Zhao Yue execute the Gale Knife Technique.

"Who would have thought that Zhao Yue refined the Gale Knife Technique to such a masterful level! His knife strikes are swift and fierce, like howling winds, and his attack is sharp. Indeed, he is the genius of the Zhao Family. With such a seasoned move, that Qin youngster is doomed to defeat withou..."

"Ah..."

However, before Zhao Tianheng could finish his sentence, a scream suddenly came from the Martial Combat Platform.

Immediately, a figure was sent flying right before Zhao Tianheng's eyes.

Zhao Tianheng's words came to an abrupt halt, and the smile on his face instantly froze, looking at the figure that had flown out with a face full of shock and disbelief.

That figure, none other than his Zhao Family's genius, Zhao Yue!

At the moment when Zhao Yue executed his Gale Knife Technique and charged at Qin He, Qin He immediately displayed a profound movement technique, sidestepping with incredible speed, easily dodging Zhao Yue's knife attack. The next moment, he swiftly slashed out his palm, hitting Zhao Yue's back fiercely.

His internal True Qi burst out, and with just a palm strike, he sent Zhao Yue flying off the Martial Combat Platform, blood spurting from his mouth as he tumbled onto the ground along with his knife.

"How... How is this possible?"

"Zhao Yue was defeated? Defeated by Qin He with one move?!"

All around, everyone was stunned, their faces filled with disbelief.

The Zhao Family members were even more dumbstruck.

But at this moment, Qinchuan suddenly stood up with a stern face, slapping the table and shouting at Qin He, "Qin He, what did I just say to you? I told you to use just thirty percent of your strength, did you take my words as nothing but the wind passing by your ears?"

"Do you think I told you to use only thirty percent of your strength for nothing? I did it to train your ability to control your power, yet you have disregarded my words, you have greatly disappointed me."

In the venue, the people from all four directions were awakened by the sound of Qinchuan slapping the table, and upon hearing his words, they were left speechless.

Meanwhile, on the Martial Combat Platform, Qin He had a face full of grievance and innocence as he said, "Mansion Master, I really did use slightly less than thirty percent of my strength just now..."

The Zhao Family members, led by Zhao Tianheng, turned green with anger upon hearing the exchange between the two, their cheeks twitching, clearly seeing that Qinchuan and Qin He were putting on an act together, deliberately belittling their Zhao Family.
