Chapter 189 Eye-catching Debut
Yang Yunfei and Qi Yutang's faces changed slightly when they heard the words. They didn't expect that when they were talking, someone would suddenly speak rudely.
Following the sound, he saw that the other person was a young man, who looked about the same age as him and his group, but with a look of disdain in his eyes, and his cultivation was only at the middle stage of foundation building.
What's more, they were all young people, and Qi Yutang wanted to get angry and yell back.
However, Zhao Chengzhi got there first and bowed to the surrounding monks and the young master, smiling awkwardly:
"Sorry! Sorry! Hehehe... Sir, I'm really sorry. It's our fault. We disturbed you. We will pay attention next time. I'm really sorry."
As he spoke, he held down Qi Yutang who was about to stand up. Yang Yunfei didn't quite understand Zhao Chengzhi's behavior. Usually when encountering such things, he was always the first to rush forward. Why did he change his temper today?
The young man, seeing that Zhao Chengzhi's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good, did not take it any further.
Zhao Chengzhi kept an apologetic smile. Seeing that the other party did not embarrass him anymore, he whispered to Yang Yunfei and Qi Yutang:
"Don't be impulsive. It is said that the audience here are all young people from various major forces.
There are many people with extremely powerful backgrounds among them. Our family background is really not enough for them to look at, so don't be impulsive. In everything, peace is the most important thing."
After hearing this, the two realized that they had been a little reckless. This was not the Shunan City they were familiar with. Especially Qi Yutang, there was a look of fear in his eyes.
She looked at Zhao Chengzhi with gratitude, then bit her lips lightly and lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
In fact, after all, it's all because of that damn strength. Without strength, you will be timid and inferior to others wherever you go.
If you have the ability, everyone will look at you with admiration. Even if you fart, people will say it smells good.
At this time, a large group of people, led by two people, came to the martial arts field from the City Lord's Mansion, talking and laughing, and then sat down in turn according to the predetermined order.
The man in the middle was tall and short, with a kind face, eyes like red phoenixes, eyebrows like sleeping silkworms, two round earlobes, bright eyes, square lips, a straight mouth, a broad forehead and a flat top, full skin and flesh, and a middle-aged appearance but the cultivation of a mid-stage Nascent Soul.
It was Su Ziming, the mayor of Qianyang City, who served as the notary for this competition.
On the immediate left is a man of gaunt figure, tall and thin, with an elegant demeanor, a dignified and divine look, wearing a straight-cut blue robe, which gives him the air of a scholar.
It was Liang Chaobei, the deputy city lord of Dan City, who was the chief referee of this competition. If it were not for the joint invitation of the two chambers of commerce, he would not normally be able to attend such a competition between alchemists.
Next came the two deputy referees, Dan Gui Yin Cang and Dan King Yu Tongwei.
Next to Su Ziming's right is Hu Shilong, the prince of Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, followed by Yan Zixia, the daughter of a genius from Feiyu Chamber of Commerce.
"Hehehe...it's quite formal." Lu Chen followed Yan Zixia and other big guys, looking around, with an expression that everything was new to him, and entered the competition venue together, looking very relaxed and casual.
However, when Lu Chen saw Chu Dingtian in the guest seats on the left, his pupils suddenly shrank and he froze on the spot. He was so scared that he was ready to hide in the Golden Pearl World to escape at any time.
So much so that when everyone else had left, he was the only one left, lagging behind, and was very eye-catching.
At this scene, almost all the cultivators stared at Lu Chen in surprise, wondering why he suddenly froze there alone.
Seeing that Chu Dingtian didn't seem to have the intention to take action as he had imagined, Lu Chen suddenly remembered something and subconsciously touched the mask on his face, looking a little funny.
He looked around and saw that nothing unusual had happened, so he adjusted his mood, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and returned to his cynical expression, and continued walking towards the stone platform in the middle.
I thought to myself, "Luckily I am used to being cautious and asked Yan Zixia to prepare a mask for me in advance, otherwise, I would be dead today."
"Hahaha..." However, Lu Chen's action caused many cultivators present to burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... Who is this guy! He looked so funny just now. I even suspected that he had come to the wrong place." Zhao Chengzhi pointed at Lu Chen in the audience and laughed.
"Is this Ximen Qinghong? He doesn't have any gentlemanly manners at all. It seems that I really overestimated him." Dongfang Yuanhua, who had already walked to the stone platform, looked at Lu Chen and thought.
He had heard that his opponent was a registered disciple of the Alchemy God Confucius, and he was a little dignified. After all, the Alchemy God's reputation was there.
But now seeing that the other party was just a lazy and stupid boy, Dongfang Yuanhua felt that he had won the game.
"Hmph! This Lu Xiaoyao is so frivolous. I don't know why Feiyu Chamber of Commerce suddenly replaced nephew Ximen." The referee Liang Chaobei looked at Lu Chen with disdain as he walked towards another stone platform, leaving a bad impression.
At this moment, Lu Chen has changed his name to Lu Xiaoyao and reported to the referee team.
In contrast, his opponent Dongfang Yuanhua was calm and composed, well-educated, handsome, and had a confident smile on his face, which left a good impression on Liang Chaobei.
When Yan Zixia saw this, her forehead was full of black lines. She didn't expect Lu Chen to make such a joke. She lowered her head and pretended to think.
On both sides of the platform sat the guest observers invited by the two chambers of commerce. On the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce side, there were Zhang Bingtian, Wang Haocang and a dozen others.
The Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce has: Chu Dingtian, Hua Youyuan, and about ten other people.
On the podium, Su Ziming saw that everyone was in place, and nodded to the middle-aged man who kept smiling next to the podium.
The middle-aged man seemed to have been paying attention to Su Ziming's instructions. He nodded respectfully in response after understanding, then walked forward, circulated his true energy and smiled faintly, but his voice spread like a loud bell:
"Hehehe...Everyone please keep quiet, our game is about to begin, next..."
The middle-aged man first briefly introduced himself. He was the steward of the City Lord's Mansion and was responsible for hosting this competition.
Secondly, he briefly introduced several important figures on the podium, which caused cheers and admiration from the audience.
Then he introduced the identities and backgrounds of the two contestants. When he introduced that Dongfang Yuanhua was the one representing the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, he naturally attracted the attention of many cultivators.
After all, the title of Little Pill King is not for nothing, many cultivators have heard of his rumors.
This made the monks who supported Feiyu Chamber of Commerce to win start to worry about the outcome of the competition.
When the alchemist representing the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce was introduced as Lu Xiaoyao, there was an uproar.
In particular, the reaction of the cultivators who supported the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce was the strongest, because most of them had never seen Ximen Qinghong, so they didn't even recognize that someone had changed.
Various discussions began to be heard, some were positive, but more were sarcastic.
Because many cultivators knew in advance that the alchemist representing the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce should be Ximen Qinghong, how come it was suddenly replaced by Lu Xiaoyao?
Besides, who exactly is this alchemist named Lu Xiaoyao? Everyone looked at each other, as if no one had ever heard of this person, and they all cast inquiring glances at Yan Zixia.
However, Yan Zixia, the representative of the Feiyu Chamber of Commerce, had her head lowered at this moment, as if she had been prepared. This made everyone even more confused.
It stands to reason that Yan Zixia would not invite an unknown person to such an important competition, otherwise it would not have been rumored before that the disciple of the Alchemy God Kongqiu would represent Feiyu Chamber of Commerce in the competition.
Everyone began to suspect that something unknown must have happened. At the same time, they were also wondering who this alchemist named Lu Xiaoyao was and that he must have some extraordinary qualities.
"Lu Xiaoyao? Who is Lu Xiaoyao? Isn't my opponent Ximen Qinghong, the registered disciple of the Alchemy God Confucius? Why did it become Lu Xiaoyao?" Dongfang Yuanhua thought in confusion.
"Oh...it's over! Feiyu Chamber of Commerce actually asked an unknown alchemist to fight against the Little Pill King this time. Isn't this a clear admission of defeat?" Zhang Bingtian sent a telepathic message to Wang Haocang.
"Hehehe...Brother Zhang, why do you have to worry so much? How could Feiyu Chamber of Commerce joke about such an important competition? There must be something fishy. You and I just need to wait for the competition." Wang Haocang responded with a smile.
Lu Chen ignored all the discussions and simply closed his eyes, waiting for the game to begin...
