"I concede." Xiang Tianwen loudly and directly admitted defeat. His voice was completely open and honest, and his face showed not the slightest hint of embarrassment from being mocked.
"Speak up, I can't hear you!" Wan Tiancheng clearly hadn't expected the usually stubborn and proud Xiang Tianwen to concede so thoroughly. He had originally wanted to torment him a little longer.
However, he certainly wasn't going to accept such a simple surrender.
Faced with Wan Tiancheng's blatant humiliation, Xiang Tianwen not only didn't get angry, but instead revealed a mocking expression. He didn't feel the need to get angry at a dead man.
Murmurs arose from the surroundings. Some gloated, some felt pity, and some couldn't bear to watch.
Xiang Tianwen slowly stood up, his expression calm. "Wan Tiancheng, there's no need for you to be so despicable. I have already conceded. If you have the guts, then make a move and break the rules. If you don't, then sit still and properly enjoy your remaining time."
After saying this, Xiang Tianwen turned and walked away, completely unafraid of a sneak attack from behind.
Of course, Wan Tiancheng didn't dare to launch a sneak attack. A spar was one thing, but a sneak attack was an entirely different matter.
"Hmph, a defeated opponent still dares to be so arrogant? Your skin is truly thick, Xiang Tianwen. Those who didn't know would think you were the winner." Wan Tiancheng mocked, drawing bursts of sneers from the crowd.
However, Xiang Tianwen didn't even turn his head, ignoring a bunch of dead men.
Seeing the other party ignore him so completely, Wan Tiancheng's lingering anger remained unquelled. He had no choice but to fix his gaze on Gu Qingfeng, who was watching the show from the sidelines.
Especially when he saw Gu Qingfeng holding Yan Lingxue in his arms, a flash of jealous hatred crossed his eyes.
"Daoist Master Qingfeng, I heard that you inherited your teachings from a hidden immortal cultivator. This young master would very much like to experience it today."
"You are not worthy," Gu Qingfeng said indifferently.
As soon as these words came out, the entire venue instantly fell silent.
All kinds of gazes were cast upon Gu Qingfeng. Of course, the coldly beautiful, fairy-like Yan Lingxue also attracted a lot of attention.
"Heh, I'm afraid Daoist Master Qingfeng doesn't dare to, right?" Wan Tiancheng sneered.
"If you don't dare, it doesn't matter. Just obediently admit defeat and give the woman beside you to this young master, and we will consider this matter settled."
Gu Qingfeng's expression became slightly strange.
He thought to himself: It's starting, the protagonist's halo is online.
Whenever there was a banquet gathering geniuses from all over, there would inevitably be a villain who took a fancy to the woman beside the protagonist, then challenged him to a duel using the woman as a wager, only to get slapped in the face by the protagonist.
Since the atmosphere had been built up to this point, it wouldn't be appropriate not to make a move. Anyway, the Immortal King Conference hadn't truly begun yet, and some factions hadn't arrived. Before everyone gathered, it was a good time to play around.
"Do you really want to try?" Gu Qingfeng asked.
"Hmph, please enlighten me!"
"Very well."
Gu Qingfeng replied, then walked into the center of the arena under everyone's gaze, facing Wan Tiancheng from a distance.
Everyone was discussing, wondering where Gu Qingfeng had popped out from. None of the major geniuses had ever seen this person before; he was likely a nobody.
"Don't say this young master is bullying you. You make the first move," Wan Tiancheng said, crossing his arms over his chest, clearly not taking Gu Qingfeng seriously at all.
Gu Qingfeng pondered for a moment. He would need to use one-millionth of his strength to ensure he didn't accidentally kill him in one hit.
Before everyone arrived, he didn't want any unexpected complications. Since he was finally pulling off a big job, he naturally wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.
After pondering for a long time, Gu Qingfeng felt troubled. This strength was truly hard to control. A mere quasi-Immortal King was an ant he could kill with a snap of his fingers. How was he supposed to fight this?
If he accidentally killed him, his Dao Protector and allied factions definitely wouldn't let the matter rest. Once the scene became chaotic, more and more people would notice something was wrong, and if word leaked out, wouldn't it ruin his grand plan?
It was like a person crushing an ant. Crushing an ant is easy, but if you are told not to crush it to death but merely injure it, that becomes a bit difficult.
Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was delaying his attack, Wan Tiancheng thought he was scared, and the mocking look on his face grew even stronger.
"What? Do you not even have the courage to attack this young master?"
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng moved. He had thought of a good idea.
He was seen slowly pulling out a thick stack of talismans from his Cosmos Ring.
Since it was hard to control his strength, he would use talismans. A stack of talismans drawn by an Immortal King expert should be able to defeat a quasi-Immortal King, right?
Although Gu Qingfeng had never studied talisman drawing, the number of Immortal Kings who had died by his hands was countless. Furthermore, he had looted every single one of their corpses, and for some, he had even emptied their sect's treasuries.
Therefore, he had quite a lot of treasures on him, with Immortal King-level items piled up like mountains.
Swish!
Gu Qingfeng tentatively threw out a stack of talismans.
Boom!
Immortal radiance erupted, precious light roared, and the void suddenly shattered.
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, that stack of talismans transformed into a sky full of terrifying attacks, surging toward Wan Tiancheng to drown him out.
Because they were Immortal King-level talismans, the power of each talisman was equivalent to a strike from an Immortal King.
At a rough estimate, Gu Qingfeng had just thrown out over a hundred of them.
It was equivalent to over a hundred Immortal Kings attacking simultaneously. Even if they were all ordinary strikes, the sheer number was overwhelming!
Divine flames, heavenly lightning, sword light, and saber qi—various attacks flew wildly across the sky.
Wan Tiancheng was completely scared silly. He never expected Gu Qingfeng to bring out Immortal King-level talismans, and he certainly never expected him to throw out over a hundred at once.
Wan Tiancheng actually had talismans of this level too, and in fact, most of the geniuses present had them. But the problem was that such talismans were basically used as life-saving trump cards.
When encountering an invincible enemy, directly throwing out an Immortal King talisman, equivalent to the power of an Immortal King's strike, could turn the tide and decide the outcome of a battle.
The crowd present was also dumbfounded. Where the hell did this rich guy come from, throwing out over a hundred Immortal King talismans in a single move?!
Even those famous talisman sects weren't this extravagant!
These were Immortal King-level talismans! The power of an Immortal King involved the profound mysteries of laws, which ordinary talisman paper simply couldn't bear. Every single one was extremely precious.
"Elder Zhang, save me!!" Facing the sky full of talismans, Wan Tiancheng directly cried out to his Dao Protector for help. Was this a joke? Could a quasi-Immortal King possibly withstand the combined strikes of over a hundred Immortal Kings?
Swish!
A hunched figure suddenly blocked the space in front of Wan Tiancheng.
It was an old man with a face full of deep wrinkles, an early-stage Immortal King expert, and Wan Tiancheng's Dao Protector.
Even for an early-stage Immortal King expert, facing over a hundred Immortal King talismans made his expression visibly solemn.
With a wave of his large hand, a turtle-patterned shield appeared in front of him. It rapidly expanded, protecting himself and Wan Tiancheng within.
Bang!
Over a hundred terrifying attacks struck the turtle-patterned shield like falling meteors, stirring up ripples.
Just as everyone thought it could hold, a cracking sound rang out.
Cracks actually appeared on the turtle-patterned shield!
Elder Zhang's exclamation instantly sounded.
"There are actually talismans drawn by late-stage Immortal King experts mixed in here! Everyone, save me!!"
As soon as his voice fell, before anyone else could react, the turtle-patterned shield completely shattered, and the terrifying immortal light landed directly on the two of them.
Bang! Bang!
Elder Zhang and Wan Tiancheng were ruthlessly sent flying. They violently spewed blood, fell to the ground unable to get up, their fates unknown.
For a moment, the entire venue was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
At this time, Gu Qingfeng's voice sounded, carrying a hint of embarrassment.
"My apologies. I don't usually use talismans, so I accidentally grabbed the wrong one."
The crowd fell into a collective, speechless silence. Absolutely no one believed Gu Qingfeng's words; they merely felt that this man was incredibly petty and that this was clearly naked revenge.
The difference between an early-stage Immortal King talisman and a late-stage Immortal King talisman was more than just a single tier. How could anyone possibly grab the wrong one?
In reality, Gu Qingfeng truly wasn't lying. He practically never used talismans, and with his level of strength, he didn't even bat an eye at Immortal King-tier talismans. As a result, they were just tossed into haphazard piles inside his spatial ring.
Seeing that they were basically all early-stage Immortal King talismans, who would have thought that when he casually grabbed one, a late-stage Immortal King talisman would actually be mixed in?
