The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 569: Chapter 578: Battle Against Zhou Shaochen [Five Updates]

”Mid-stage Inner Strength!” Wang Wei and Du Yuan’s faces grew increasingly ugly. They were well aware of what mid-stage Inner Strength represented. In Sha City, the director of the Heavenly Origin Martial Arts Hall was the strongest martial artist in the city, merely in the late stage of Inner Strength. But now, Daoist Qingfengzi actually claimed that Zhou Shaochen was a mid-stage Inner Strength powerhouse. How could they not be astonished?

At this moment, Zhou Shaochen seemed like an insurmountable wall standing before them, oppressing them so much that they struggled to breathe, forcing them to lower their heads, feeling that they could never overcome this barrier in their lifetime.

”Alright! Now all ten matches have ended. Everyone rest for half an hour. After half an hour, we will start the top-five competition. The victor will become a destined disciple of our Maoshan!”

Daoist Qingfengzi announced, and anticipation grew among the crowd.

Wang Wei and Du Yuan were also looking forward to it. If they didn’t have to face Ye Feng and Zhou Shaochen in the matches, they felt confident they could defeat their opponents and thus enter Maoshan as disciples.

Everyone hurriedly rested, trying to bring their condition to its peak so they could defeat their opponents during the matches.

At that moment, Daoist Qingfengzi approached Ye Feng, looking at Wang Wei and Du Yuan, ”You two, step aside for a moment. I have something to discuss with Ye Feng alone.”

After hearing Daoist Qingfengzi’s words, Du Yuan and Wang Wei both nodded and moved aside for Daoist Qingfengzi.

The people around them watched Ye Feng excitedly, feeling that Daoist Qingfengzi must think highly of Ye Feng since he continually sought him out for private conversations.

Daoist Qingfengzi looked at Ye Feng, revealing a gentle smile, ”Ye Feng, how about it? Are you confident about the next match?”

”Mm ...” Ye Feng simply nodded, uninterested in talking more with Daoist Qingfengzi.

Daoist Qingfengzi nodded, ”Good, confidence! However, being confident isn’t always good. Ye Feng, I’m actually very curious about your cultivation method. What kind of method could give you such profound understanding of the Martial Arts? Why don’t you show me your method? There will be no harm in it for you.”

”I’m sorry. My method is not something I can show to just anyone.” Ye Feng replied casually.

”Ye Feng, how about this? If you are willing to show me your method, then upon joining Maoshan, I will accept you as my direct disciple. Once in Maoshan, I assure you will thrive. How about it?” Daoist Qingfengzi asked.

Ye Feng shook his head, his expression neutral as he spoke indifferently, ”To be my master, you are not yet worthy!”

”Ye Feng!” Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Daoist Qingfengzi angrily stomped on the ground, causing it to instantly collapse and form a three-meter wide pit, startling everyone with its sudden occurrence.

”Ye Feng, you choose to defy the kindness I offered and invite punishment instead. I’m asking you one last time, will you not reveal your cultivation method! Think it over before you answer. If you refuse, the next match will be between you and Zhou Shaochen. You’ve seen Zhou Shaochen’s strength, mid-stage Inner Strength. No matter how capable you are, you won’t stand a chance against him!”

Daoist Qingfengzi directly threatened Ye Feng to hand over his cultivation method, but Ye Feng still wore an expression of disdain, his eyes reflecting an ease.

”Whatever you want...” Ye Feng said lightly, then walked back to his seat and sat down.

Daoist Qingfengzi glared at Ye Feng, ”Fine! Fine! Fine! Ye Feng, this is the trouble you asked for; don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Daoist Qingfengzi returned to the dais and then loudly announced, ”The final contest begins now, first match: Ye Feng against Zhou Shaochen!”

”What!” Upon hearing Daoist Qingfengzi’s words, everyone felt incredibly surprised.

No one expected the first match to be between Ye Feng and Zhou Shaochen.

Excitement flashed through Zhou Shaochen’s eyes as he looked at Ye Feng, seemingly viewing him as prey that would soon be in his grasp, filled with confidence that he could easily defeat Ye Feng.

Wang Wei and Du Yuan anxiously looked at Ye Feng, ”Ye Feng, have you offended Daoist Qingfengzi? Why would he arrange for you to fight Zhou Shaochen? Maybe you should apologize to Daoist Qingfengzi and ask him to rearrange the match!”

”No need!” Ye Feng shook his head, clearly unconcerned.

Du Yuan tried to persuade him, ”Ye Feng, just forget it. You also saw Zhou Shaochen’s strength; he’s a mid-stage Inner Strength powerhouse, not something ordinary people, even twenty adult men, could handle. If you’ve really offended Daoist Qingfengzi, just apologize; I’m sure he’ll give you a chance!”

Ye Feng shook his head again, casually saying, ”Merely a mid-stage Inner Strength weakling, not worth mentioning. You don’t need to worry about me.”

”What did you say!” Although Ye Feng’s voice was not loud, everyone nearby heard him. They all looked at Ye Feng in surprise, shocked to hear him call Zhou Shaochen merely a mid-stage Inner Strength weakling, considering Ye Feng overly arrogant.

”Rubbish! I think you are courting death!” Zhou Shaochen also grew angry. In his view, Ye Feng was just trash that could easily be dealt with, but this same trash dared to look down on him, infuriating Zhou Shaochen.

However, Ye Feng remained relaxed, not paying Zhou Shaochen any attention as he walked to the center of the arena, looking at Zhou Shaochen, ”Come on, if you want to kill me, you’re not qualified yet...”

”Arrogant! Ye Feng, in the decades I’ve cultivated Martial Arts at Maoshan, this is the first time I’ve encountered someone as arrogant as you!” Daoist Qingfengzi stared at Ye Feng, his gaze filled with discontent.

Zhou Shaochen’s face turned utterly unsightly, dark as if about to drip water, filled with murderous intent.

”Boy, kneel and apologize. I can let you lose more gracefully!” Zhou Shaochen coldly stared at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng impatiently said, ”Hurry up and make your move; I have no interest in wasting time with garbage like you!”

”Is Ye Feng insane?” Everyone, surprised upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, still at this critical moment, Ye Feng dared to provoke Zhou Shaochen, well aware of the deep animosity between Zhou Shaochen and Ye Feng.
