Qin Tian knew what Murong Fei meant by saying those words.

Her father is the authority of the Murong Family. The last time Qin Tian came to the Murong Mansion to propose, her father wasn’t there, so it didn’t count.

Facing Murong Fei’s gaze, Qin Tian said, ”Murong, I will propose to you in front of your father at the Murong Mansion. But not tomorrow.”

Murong Fei was taken aback, ”Why? Qin Tian, why aren’t you coming tomorrow?”

”Because my Cultivation Immortality List competition isn’t over yet.”

”Not over yet... Are you still planning to challenge ahead?”

Murong Fei thought that Qin Tian, with his Small Immortal Realm Peak strength, indeed had the capital to challenge further.

However, Qin Tian had already defeated Murong Ao, and Murong Fei was concerned for Qin Tian’s safety and didn’t want him to continue challenging and taking risks.

”Qin Tian, you are already ranked eighteenth among the young masters, considered one of the outstanding talents of the young generation. There’s no need to challenge further.”

Murong Fei’s face was filled with worry as she looked at Qin Tian, ”With your cultivation, you could challenge higher rankings, even reaching first on the youth list is possible, but so what?”

”I know you are not someone who disregards everything for a mere ranking, so I feel there’s no need to fight anymore. Come to my house to propose, and I’ll explain our relationship to my father.”

Facing Murong Fei’s persuasion, Qin Tian shook his head, ”I am indeed not seeking fame for a ranking. I want to challenge Xiao Lingyun.”

”Challenge Xiao Lingyun!?”

Murong Fei was taken aback. Seeing Qin Tian’s gaze, she understood and said with a slight smile, ”Are you jealous?”

Qin Tian nodded without hesitation, ”I am indeed jealous. That Xiao Family, that Xiao Lingyun, always puts on airs, plus the relationship between the Xiao Family and your Murong Family. Tell me, if I cannot surpass Xiao Lingyun, will your father agree to let you marry me?”

Qin Tian’s words made Murong Fei ponder, then a trace of worry flashed across her beautiful eyes, ”In recent years, the Xiao Family has indeed been close with our family. My father has always wanted to marry me to Xiao Lingyun...”

”Exactly, so before proposing to your family, there is bound to be a showdown between Xiao Lingyun and me!”

Qin Tian looked at Murong Fei with a determined gaze.

This time Murong Fei finally did not speak.

She knew what Qin Tian said was true.

Without defeating Xiao Lingyun, Qin Tian would only be ridiculed by the Xiao Family, and his chances of successfully proposing to the Murong Family were almost nil.

After parting with Murong Fei, Qin Tian returned to the Qin Mansion, thought for a night, and then, the next day, directly arrived outside the Imperial Palace at the Earth List registration desk.

”Governor Qin, you came to the Earth List registration desk to...”

The registration officer, from the Imperial Palace, recognized Qin Tian. Seeing him here, he was momentarily stunned and said, ”You are eighteenth on the youth list, you came to the Earth List...”

”I am here to challenge someone.”

Qin Tian said calmly.

The registration officer was stunned, looking at Qin Tian, ”Who do you want to challenge?”

Eighteenth on the youth list, challenging an Earth List expert?

The registration officer felt it was somewhat unbelievable.

However, he had previously heard about Qin Tian’s victory over Murong Ao, so while surprised, he wasn’t entirely caught off guard. After all, the person in front of him was one of the most prominent figures in the current Cultivation Immortality List exchange competition among those below the Earth List.

”I want to challenge Xiao Lingyun.”

Qin Tian said.

”Xiao Lingyun... Earth List ninety-eighth... Governor Qin, are you sure? If you confirm, then I will proceed with the registration.” The registration officer made a final confirmation to Qin Tian.

After receiving Qin Tian’s affirmative answer, the registration officer immediately prepared the challenge letter and sent it to the Xiao Family.

With this challenge, unless Xiao Lingyun voluntarily surrendered the ninety-eighth position on the Earth List to Qin Tian, he must accept the duel.

”Hahaha, Qin Tian, you’ve brought yourself here! Great! Great!”

At the Xiao Family Mansion, when Xiao Lingyun saw Qin Tian’s challenge letter, he laughed heartily, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

He was still troubled about how to seek revenge on Qin Tian without being discovered or held accountable. After all, Qin Tian was a Second Grade official of the Court, and arbitrarily killing Qin Tian might attract attention from the Imperial Palace.

Now it’s good, Qin Tian actually took the initiative to challenge.

According to the rules of the challenge match, unless the opponent admits defeat to the referee, it’s not their responsibility even if they cripple or kill!

This resolved Xiao Lingyun’s concerns.

”Lingyun, I heard that Qin Tian came to challenge you?”

Outside the room, Xiao Lingyun’s uncle, Xiao Yunkui, rushed in angrily, ”You must kill Qin Tian to avenge Qing Mountain! My son Qing Mountain, died with an unavenged grudge!”

Xiao Yunkui is Xiao Qingshan’s father and has always been plotting to kill Qin Tian. Knowing Qin Tian actually came to challenge Xiao Qingshan, Xiao Yunkui was ecstatic, extremely excited.

”Uncle, rest assured, even without your instructions, I won’t let that Qin Tian off easily. No, I should say, during the fight, I’ll make sure that Qin Tian won’t be able to utter the words ’admit defeat,’ and he will be killed! As Qing Mountain’s brother, I’ll definitely avenge him!”

Xiao Yunkui nodded, ”If you do this, Qing Mountain would rest in peace!”

Xiao Lingyun immediately decided to duel with Qin Tian at the Martial Arts Arena outside the Imperial Palace the next afternoon.

After receiving the reply, Qin Tian’s lips curled up slightly. He knew Xiao Lingyun hated him to the bone and was eager to execute him.

However, who would kill whom? Qin Tian had more confidence than Xiao Lingyun.

In his room, he held A-Tai in his arms, slowly pondering over the upcoming events.

His thoughts were occupied with future events, and he barely considered the duel with Xiao Lingyun...

...

The news of Qin Tian challenging Xiao Lingyun spread rapidly from one to another.

As a result, by the afternoon of the following day, an hour before the match between the two was to begin, the surrounding area was already packed with throngs of people.

Qin Tian and Xiao Lingyun arrived at the Martial Arts Arena almost simultaneously.

Around them, enthusiastic cheers and applause erupted.

Although the duel between the two did not feature the highest-ranked or most powerful fighters that the Martial Arts Arena had seen, their identities and ages attracted a large audience.

Especially Qin Tian, who had fought his way from the entry list to eighteenth on the youth list in less than half a month, instantly capturing the attention of countless people and becoming a popular topic during daily conversations.

Upon seeing Qin Tian appear, each person stretched their necks as if they were fans seeing a superstar.

Without unnecessary words, Qin Tian and Xiao Lingyun, under the gaze of many, walked onto the platform and stood still.

The breeze blew, and the sun shone brightly.

The surroundings instantly quieted down.
