175: I can beat all of you with one hand, so it's not too much to gamble a little, right?

"??"

The crew's expressions changed. Was he using snacks to coax a child?

"Ah? So many delicious things?"

Liu Nian Su's mouth watered, and she nodded vigorously like a pecking chick. "Anyway, I can't beat you, so I concede."

After she finished speaking, she ran over and hugged the snacks Guo Feng handed her, then smiled, "We're friends now!"

Then, she turned and left.

This made Sima Qingfeng's mouth twitch with anger. Couldn't this little foodie be a bit more reserved?

A few bags of snacks, and you sold yourself out?

Sima Yun Shen and the other family heads also twitched their mouths.

"Alright."

At this moment, Guo Feng stretched, waved his hand, "One versus five is not a difficult task."

He then looked at Yuchi Zhan, "Director, the exchange competition is over, right?"

"Uh...yes."

Yuchi Zhan nodded.

Before he came, he hadn't expected this exchange competition to turn out this way.

It felt a bit perfunctory.

However, Guo Feng did indeed defeat five opponents directly.

"Alright."

After Guo Feng finished speaking, he leaped onto the high platform, his gaze sweeping over the crowd: "As I just said, everyone aged twenty-four and below, if you're not convinced by me, whether it's a Round Battle (wheel battle) or a group charge, come on!"

"How can we tolerate this?"

"There are at least fifty or sixty of us under twenty-four!"

"There are those at level twenty-something and level thirty-something!"

"Let's all go at him and beat him to death!"

Guo Feng completely enraged the young people of the Ancient Martial Arts Families. One by one, they clamored, ready to brutally beat Guo Feng.

"Director Yuchi, what do you think...?"

Sima Yun Shen also felt that Guo Feng was too arrogant. If he were just allowed to leave like this, where would the Ancient Martial Arts Families' dignity be?

However, Guo Feng and his crew represented the country.

So, they couldn't just directly attack him.

Yuchi Zhan also came from an Ancient Martial Arts Family and knew that the people of the Ancient Martial Arts Families had outdated views.

Sometimes, face was more important than life.

If Guo Feng wasn't allowed to fight them, their resentment would likely be considerable.

Accumulating, it would lead to big problems.

But—

What if Guo Feng, alone, defeated all their young people under 24?

Wouldn't that be even more humiliating?

This little bastard really knew how to stir up trouble!

At this moment, Wu Zi Tong looked at the hesitant Yuchi Zhan: "Director Yuchi, originally this was a peaceful exchange competition, and wins or losses were acceptable. However, now Guo Feng, alone, is so arrogant, so disrespectful to our Shu Province Ancient Martial Sacred Ground!"

He sneered, "If this gets out, where will our Shu Province Ancient Martial Sacred Ground's face be?"

"Exactly!"

Zhao An Hua, the acting head of the Zhao Family, also had a gloomy expression, "If Guo Feng doesn't want to be crippled or killed, he should kneel and apologize. Otherwise, this grudge is settled!"

"Yes, a death match! Those who insult our Sacred Ground shall die!"

"Are you saying our Sacred Ground has no one? Guo Feng, you must give us an explanation!"

"Kill Guo Feng!"

As these two spoke, someone below shouted, stirring up everyone's emotions!

Yuchi Zhan's face sank. These two families, Wu and Zhao, truly had malicious intentions.

Originally, it was just a children's squabble.

Now, with their instigation, it had escalated to the level of a death match.

"Alright, everyone quiet down."

Sima Yun Shen also frowned deeply.

This matter suddenly became very tricky.

They all knew that Guo Feng was Sima Hui's illegitimate son, and could be considered an unofficial member of the Sima Family.

However, since he hadn't been formally recognized by the family, he couldn't be considered a person of the Sacred Ground.

An illegitimate son had incurred public wrath.

Coupled with the provocation from the Wu and Zhao families...

If Guo Feng won, the people of the Sacred Ground would be even angrier.

If Guo Feng lost, it would be fine, but if he were accidentally killed, it would completely offend Sima Hui.

He sighed, looking at Yuchi Zhan, "Director Yuchi, this matter was not instigated by us. If there's no explanation, it probably won't end well."

"Guo Feng, what do you say?"

Yuchi Zhan sighed inwardly, only able to prepare for the worst.

Guo Feng being defeated.

He would fight with all his might to save Guo Feng.

This could also serve as a lesson to Guo Feng, to not be so wildly arrogant.

After all, this was the Shu Province Ancient Martial Sacred Ground.

It was different from the outside!

Guo Feng shrugged: "Director, don't worry, I won't kill any of them. I know what I'm doing!"

"??"

Yuchi Zhan's mouth twitched, "You're so confident!"

They're all rushing at you, fighting for their lives.

Every one of them is a genius, and there's strength in numbers. If you show even the slightest flaw, someone will seize it.

Then you won't even have a chance to fight back before you're killed!

Unless you're level fifty, who would dare face fifty or sixty Sacred Ground prodigies?

He took a deep breath, "Alright, then prepare yourself. Since you've said so, you must give an explanation!"

"There's nothing much to prepare."

Guo Feng waved his hand, "However, I see that the Shu Province Ancient Martial Sacred Ground has so much dignity. Alright, how about we set a wager?"

"What wager?"

Sima Yun Shen couldn't help but ask.

"It's like this: I see you have so many geniuses in your Sacred Ground, but only Sister TuTu, Brother Tushan, and a few others have truly gone out into the world."

"The current international situation is unstable, and our country is facing both internal and external troubles, lacking talents like you!"

"Yet, you choose to stay in a corner, supposedly living in seclusion, wasting resources and talent!"

Guo Feng raised his voice, his words carrying far, "I see, do none of you have a concept of nation, only craving your own comfort? When there are benefits, you send people to participate in the World Genius Competition, but when there are no benefits, you hide here? Is that right?!"

"Hm?!"

Guo Feng's words startled Yuchi Zhan, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

Guo Feng said what he had always wanted to say but couldn't!

The Ancient Martial Sacred Ground was indeed rich in resources, full of talents, and moreover, there were countless powerful individuals among the older generation!

However, they simply hid away, not bothering with worldly affairs.

The nation's safety had nothing to do with them!

Even during the eight-year catastrophe ninety-eight years ago, when the land of Shenzhou was ravaged, few of them came out!

They were typical egoists!

Sure enough, as soon as Guo Feng spoke, the elders of the Shu Province Ancient Martial Sacred Ground had extremely ugly expressions.

As for the young people, some were confused, some were angry, and some lowered their heads.

Sima Yun Shen's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Guo Feng: "Guo Feng, our Sacred Ground's actions do not require your judgment. Just state your wager directly!"

"Alright!"

Guo Feng nodded, "If I lose, you can demand any condition, even my head is fine!"

"But!"

"If you lose, every single person who participates in the battle, without exception, must leave your Sacred Ground. Either join the military, or enter the Spiritual Energy Academy, or join the Lingneng Army, for at least five years. If you don't dare, then don't participate!"

He paused, his eyes narrowing, "If you participate and then are unwilling, don't blame me for targeting you. The moment I find an opportunity, I will kill you!"

The crowd erupted in an uproar!

Making the young people leave the Sacred Ground, and all of them!

That already went against ancestral teachings.

"Change the wager!"

"What kind of wager is this? Nonsense!"

"How dare a mere child like you disrespect the Sacred Ground's ancestral teachings?!"

Some old fogeys immediately started shouting.

Sima Yun Shen looked at Guo Feng: "Guo Feng, this wager is indeed inappropriate. Can you change it?"

"Are you scared?"

Guo Feng sneered, then said, "Alright, then I'll concede another step. I'll fight all of you using only one hand, and without leaving the ground."

"If I violate that, I lose!"

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, "I'm giving you this much. Are you still afraid? A dignified Sacred Ground, so cowardly?!"

"You—"

Sima Yun Shen frowned.

The young people of the Sacred Ground roared, wanting to gamble with Guo Feng!

Too arrogant!

Too disrespectful!

Seeing this, Sima Yun Shen waved his hand to quiet the crowd, then looked at Yuchi Zhan: "Director Yuchi, you see, it's not our Sacred Ground being rude; it's Guo Feng being too arrogant!"

"Mm."

Yuchi Zhan could only nod.

At this point, he only hoped Guo Feng could display a miracle.

Sima Yun Shen then looked at Guo Feng: "Alright, I'll agree to it on their behalf. Our Sacred Ground won't bully you. You will challenge the young people of the Sacred Ground aged twenty-four and below with one hand and without leaving the ground."

"If you win, not only will these young people go to the places you mentioned, but each of our Sacred Ground families will also send five people above level forty-five to work for the country for five years!"

His gaze sharpened as he looked at Guo Feng, "What do you think?"

"Hm?!"

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, an ally?

He smiled, "Alright, it's a deal. Participants, step forward; the rest, step back to avoid being affected!"

"Charge!"

"Kill him!"

"We have fifty or sixty people, each a heaven-blessed talent. Are we still afraid of him alone?"

Immediately, fifty or sixty geniuses rushed forward.

This included Sima Qingfeng and others.

Except for Wu Jian!

Wu Jian had no fighting power!
