Xiao Chen and Ren Fei were savoring the fine wine while listening to the confused chatter around them.
They also conversed casually.
Since Xiao Chen was new to this world, he wasn’t familiar with the prominent figures from the Giant Stone Valley area, and Ren Fei happened to be able to guide him.
As for the rangers sitting nearby, they were in high spirits with wine flowing like water.
Their voices gradually grew louder, and their words became increasingly unrestrained.
“Hehe, do you guys know why all the young talents who usually remain hidden have gathered in Duanmu City this time?” one of them asked.
“Brother Wang, don’t keep us in suspense.
Tell us!” another responded.
“Yes, don’t keep us guessing.
Everyone in the Giant Stone Valley knows that you, Brother Wang, are well-informed.
So tell us, and we’ll treat you to the feast tonight!”
Without regard for the eager anticipation of the crowd, the ranger, surnamed Wang, drunk the wine on the table in one gulp.
A fellow ranger promptly refilled his cup.
Seeing he had hooked everyone’s interest, a proud smile appeared on his face.
Not only those around him but everyone in the Great Hall on the third floor was all ears, including Xiao Chen and Ren Fei.
This martial arts exchange was quite unlike any before and had attracted a large number of warriors.
“Since you all are so curious, I, Wang, will not keep you in suspense any longer.
I heard that not only the local warriors from the Giant Stone Valley will participate in this martial arts meeting, but there will also be warriors from other regions outside the Giant Stone Valley.
This Prince Xiang Tian is here exactly for these characters.”
“What, there will be warriors from the Outer Domain?”
“No wonder these rarely seen talents have all appeared, it turns out someone is coming to challenge our Giant Stone Valley.”
“Yes, our martial arts in the Giant Stone Valley have declined over these years, and we’re being ridiculed by warriors from other regions under Iron Hoof’s control.
Even us, businessmen, can’t hold our heads up high.”
Hearing this news, a trader sighed with a lonely expression.
It’s universal for people who are weak and poor to be looked down upon.
Although humans on the continent are a whole, the upper echelons of humanity don’t prevent internal strife among the tribes, as competition breeds progress.
“People from the Outer Domain?”
Hearing Wang’s words, Xiao Chen and Ren Fei exchanged a glance.
They both saw the fighting will rising in each other’s eyes.
They were eager to see if these young warriors from the Outer Domain were as formidable as rumored.
“This Giant Stone Valley is really a backwater place.
Only the Treasure Pavilion counts as a decent place to eat.
I really can’t figure out why big brother decided to come here and participate in this crummy martial arts exchange.
Apart from Shadow Ridge from the Shadow Forest Tribe who participated in the Battle for the Prodigy List, I’d say the rest of the warriors don’t amount to much.”
“That’s right, it’s no longer the era when Giant Stone Valley could dominate.
Even if they host this so-called exchange meeting, what’s the difference?
When those bumpkins who have never seen the world see someone from another race, won’t they get weak from fear?”
“Hehe, exactly so.
Forget about Iron Hoof City.
Any top-tier expert in our Yan Dang Lake region could clean up Giant Stone Valley in one sweep.
Even we, few brothers here, could dominate Giant Stone Valley.”
“You don’t need to mention that this meeting is a tribute to the competitive strength between regions.
Giant Stone Valley already is at the bottom.”
At that moment, a very arrogant voice came from the staircase at the entrance of the fifth floor.
Three figures appeared on the fifth floor.
Their words were utterly unbridled, which changed the expressions of the many people around, causing them to look over at them.
These three, however, were oblivious, their mouths running off, the words even more abhorrent.
Slap!
Fed up with their arrogance, a young man stood up, his face livid.
With one hand pounding on the table, he shouted, “How presumptuous!
Such reckless bluffs!
You three dare to cause trouble and belittle the world’s heroes in my Giant Stone Valley.”
Having their conversation interrupted abruptly, the three arrogant men were visibly taken aback.
The youth dressed in grey looked over coldly with an indifferent expression, “Please enlighten me!”
“Ranger Zhao Jie from the Giant Stone Valley.”
“Haha!
Haha!”
Upon hearing the ranger’s introduction, the three burst into loud laughter, their eyes full of disdain.
“As far as I know, the only notable person among the younger generation of the Giant Stone Valley is Shadow Ridge of the Shadow Forest Tribe.
The rest of the warriors are negligible.
And you, Zhao Jie, who do you think you are?
Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Seeing that these men didn’t care about his dignity and that their words were exceedingly arrogant, Zhao Jie’s face darkened.
He shouted, “Are you brave enough to fight me?
Don’t just let your mouth do the talking!”
“Why not? freewebnoveℓ.com
Swords and spears have no eyes.
Since you’re so eager to make a fool of yourself, you can’t blame me if you get hurt.” The young man in grey stepped forward.
“Zhao Jie is not an ordinary man, he’s considered a young genius among the rangers of the Giant Stone Valley, possessing the cultivation base of the Early Peak of the Blood Refining Realm.” Ren Fei explained to Xiao Chen who was unfamiliar with Zhao Jie.
“Show me what you’ve got!”
Zhao Jie’s weapon, like Xiao Chen’s, was a long spear.
With his Combat Qi poured into it, the spear transformed into a dark shadow and swept out.
The mazelike Combat Qi shaped into a howling giant wolf and smashed into its opponent.
“Humph, this is nothing!”
The grey-robed youth didn’t even bother to draw the weapon on his back.
He instilled Combat Qi into his right arm and reached out to grab the giant wolf.
Zhao Jie’s Combat Qi-infused wolf was seized by the throat, immobilized in mid-air, and exploded in an instant.
“Haha, down you go!”
Before everyone could react, the young man in grey struck again with his right hand, tracing a semi-circle in the air.
The exploded spear energy suddenly reversed direction like a rain of pear blossoms and shot back towards Zhao Jie at a speed faster than when it attacked.
Clang, clang, clang!
As sparks flew everywhere, Zhao Jie could only hold out for a moment before the enormous recoil sent him flying, blood spraying wildly from his mouth.
He crashed into more than a dozen tables before falling to the ground, motionless.
“He’s hardly a challenge!” Seeing Zhao Jie fall without getting up, the grey-robed youth sneered disdainfully.
Seeing what had just happened, all the rangers on the fifth floor, who were initially quite indignant, instinctively lowered their heads.
They knew that Zhao Jie was no ordinary guy and was counted among the talented young rangers in the Giant Stone Valley.
But even such a character could not withstand a single move of this grey-robed person.
Thus they realized that they would be even less helpful, especially when it seemed that the grey-robed youth had not used his full strength.
Seeing that everyone on the fifth floor was intimidated by the grey-robed youth, he and his two companions laughed even more unabashedly.
They were becoming even more dismissive of the warriors of the Giant Stone Valley.
