Chapter Fifty-Four A Bunch of Rubbish

  Li Dongkui didn't seem to care, but Li Yatong's face looked a bit unsightly. Although it was the gatekeeper who had been tested, in reality, it was the strength of the two families that was being measured. The Li family had lost, and as the young mistress responsible for leading the gatekeepers, she had also lost face.

  Yue Cheng won three rounds in a row, feeling proud and arrogant: "Is there anyone else who dares to come up? I heard that the guests at the Li family's door are all elites. Can't you do better than this? I'm just a minor figure in the Qin family, but winning three rounds against you, are you all just freeloaders? Haha."

  These words were spoken loudly, and Li Dongkui's face suddenly flashed with a look of hesitation. Li Yatong looked even more ugly, and he almost couldn't sit still in his chair.

  The crowd of guests was also furious, but they were all staring at each other in dismay, hesitating and no one stepped forward.

  Wang Ming and the scar-faced man and the middle-aged woman were the strongest among the crowd. If even they lost to Yue Cheng, then no one else could possibly win.

  "Yue Cheng, don't be arrogant, I, Chen Ke, have come to meet you."

  Suddenly, a pale-faced young man jumped onto the scene and rushed towards Yue Cheng.

  Chen Ke was the youngest of the Li family's guests, and his cultivation was also the weakest. However, he had a rather impulsive temperament, and when he saw Yue Cheng provoking him, his blood rushed to his head, and without thinking, he charged forward.

  Everyone shook their heads, this Chen Ke was indeed brave, but going up there was purely asking for trouble.

  "What's with you, daring to compare with me? Get out!" Yue Cheng was too lazy to continue the exchange, and as he saw the young man rush up, he let out a loud shout and kicked out with one foot, striking Chen Ke's chest.

  Chen Ke immediately flew backward with a loud crash and heavily fell among the crowd of guests.

  "Chen Ke!" The crowd exclaimed in surprise and rushed forward to help Chen Ke up.

  Chen Ke's body went limp, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood before completely passing out.

  Li Yatong's anger burned, and she could no longer hold back. With a sudden movement, she stood up and shouted: "Yue Cheng, we already agreed to stop at the crucial point! How dare you use heavy-handed tactics to hurt my people? Are you looking down on the Li family?"

  Yue Cheng's face changed color, and he was just about to speak.

  "Yatou, winning or losing is a common thing. Your door guest's skills are not as good as others, why get angry? If someone among you can beat Yue Cheng, even if they make Yue Cheng spit blood, we will have nothing to say. This is a competition between door guests, so don't interfere."

  Li Yatong glared at him angrily and sat down helplessly.

  She also guessed that Yue Cheng's cultivation was acquired later in life, and it was likely that none of the guests under her care were a match for him. It seemed that today, the Li family would suffer a great loss of face.

  That Xia Chenxi should be very powerful, and might even be able to rival Yue Cheng, but he had always been cold and distant towards him, so how could he now bring himself to speak up.

  "Is there anyone else who wants to come and offer their advice?" With Qin Luo's support, Yue Cheng couldn't help but become even more arrogant.

  He provocatively swept his gaze over the faces of the crowd, and the guests at Li's house involuntarily lowered their heads, although lowering their heads in submission seemed a bit humiliating, but being defeated in public was even more humiliating.

  For a moment, the entire hall was silent, and even Li Dongkui's face turned somewhat gloomy. Although the Li and Qin families were on good terms, their strengths were evenly matched. Now that the guest of the Li family had been swept away in three games, it was hard to accept.

  Li Qitong hesitated and turned back to look at Xia Chen, saying in a low voice: "Xiao Chenzi, are you confident that you can defeat him?"

  The Li family's face was swept away, and the little girl also felt a bit ashamed. Although she knew about Xia Chen's cultivation, she didn't want to force Xia Chen either. Xia Chen was nominally a guest of the house, but in reality, he could dominate the opinions of this second young lady.

  Her voice was low, but the hall was extremely quiet, and almost everyone heard her words, instantly turning their eyes over.

  Yue Cheng's face revealed a mocking expression, as he held his arms and looked at Xia Chen with disdain. This young man was extremely ordinary, just one look and you could tell he was the type of person who followed others around. He was probably not even as good as those door guests from the Li family. If he were to go on stage, he would likely be blown away with just one breath.

  Li Yatong clenched her fist, her heart racing with excitement and anticipation. The anger she had felt towards Xia Chen was long gone.

  Wang Ming and the other guests also looked forward to it, and since Xia Chen could directly kill Zhou Lin in seconds, his cultivation was obviously more terrifying than Yue Cheng's. If he made a move, he might be able to save face for everyone.

  Li Dongkui shook his head. At that time, he only took in Xia Chen to accompany Li Qinger, his precious daughter, and didn't think about letting this young man bring honor back to the Li family. Moreover, looking at Xia Chen's appearance, even if he had any cultivation, it probably wouldn't be very high.

  He furrowed his brow and was about to tell Qin Chuan to stop the competition.

  Suddenly, Xia Chen shook his head and said, "Second Miss, this person's cultivation is too low, it's not worth me taking action!"

  He didn't cover his voice at all, and everyone could hear it clearly. Suddenly, the faces of the crowd were filled with astonishment, and they couldn't believe their ears.

  Yue Cheng's triumphant expression froze on his face as he stared at Xia Chen: "What did you say? Say it again?"

  This guy is really arrogant! Li Yatong thought to herself, but a smile appeared on her face, as if Xia Chen's words had instantly dispelled the annoyance in her heart.

  At the same time, the big sister suddenly felt that Xia Chen didn't seem so annoying after all.

  The crowd of guests took a deep breath, thinking that it was no wonder she was the second young lady's guest, with such an arrogant tone, and not ordinary compared to others.

  Li Dongkui's eyes shone with a strange light, staring tightly at Xia Chen. It was only now that he suddenly realized that he seemed to have never really seen through this ordinary young man, or rather, Xia Chen was fundamentally impossible to see through...

  Qin Chuan and Qin Luo's faces changed, especially Qin Luo, whose eyes emitted a fierce killing intent. He had been ignored by Xia Chen earlier and had been suppressing his anger for half a day. Now, seeing Xia Chen being so arrogant, he couldn't help but get extremely angry.

  "I said your skills are too poor, not worth my effort. Even if we were to compare, it would be a humiliation for you." Xia Chen crossed his arms behind his back, looked up at the sky and only used his chin to acknowledge Yue Cheng, truly as arrogant as can be.

  He didn't have any interest in competing with these shrimp originally, but since Li Qiu Tong begged him, Xia Chen couldn't bear to refuse. A heart that sympathized with the beauty and pitied her had become softer and softer.

  "Looking for death, you little..." Yue Cheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, wanting to scold him as a little beast, but suddenly remembered that this was the Li family's main hall and absolutely could not be rude, so he had to swallow it hard.

  "Yue Cheng, come here!" Qin Luo suddenly said coldly.

  Yue Cheng glared at Xia Chen fiercely and walked over to Qin Luo's side, saying in a low voice: "What are your orders, young master?"

  Qin Luo gazed coldly at Xia Chen, whispering a few words in Yue Cheng's ear.

  Yue Cheng was taken aback, and then his expression changed to one of sudden realization. He nodded vigorously, and his face turned fierce as he walked to the center of the hall, pointing at Xia Chen and shouting: "You said my cultivation is too low, not worth your attention, and even if I were to engage in a trial with you, it would be self-deprecating. Ha! I, Yue Cheng, am someone who doesn't admit defeat. Since you're so formidable and look down on everyone, including the young master of my household, then come and instruct me on how to improve!"

  "Xiao Chenzi..." Li Qitong hesitated, fearing that Yue Cheng was too formidable and worried that Xia Chen would be at a disadvantage!

  Xia Chen smiled slightly, patted her shoulder lightly, indicating that he was fine, then walked slowly to the center of the arena. He didn't bother to exchange pleasantries with Yue Cheng either, but simply stretched out his index finger and hooked it towards Yue Cheng, as if teasing a dog.

  "Bastard, you're dead meat today!" Yue Cheng was furious, taking big strides forward, and threw a heavy punch at Xia Chen's face. He was determined to disfigure Xia Chen with one punch, beating him until his face was covered in blood.

  Xia Chen didn't even look back, and with one swift kick, he launched himself forward, striking Yue Cheng's abdomen with precision.

  With a loud crash, Yue Cheng's tall body flew backwards and knocked down several Qin family guests who were unable to dodge in time, sending them tumbling heavily to the ground.

  Impossible!

  Everyone's expression stiffened, and the thought flashed through their minds in an instant. Although they had all guessed that Xia Chen was not simple, they still didn't expect that Xia Chen could knock down Yue Cheng in an instant.

  This young man is actually so strong!

  "You little bastard, I'll kill you!" Yue Cheng's face turned dark as he crawled up from the ground, his expression ferocious, seemingly entering a state of madness, furiously charging towards Xia Chen once again.

  His entire body's sleeves puffed out, and the double-layered true energy of the day after tomorrow was released without reservation, emitting a hissing sound. With a loud shout, amidst the explosive gusts of wind, he once again struck out with a fist at Xia Chen.

  "Double Heavy Tomorrow!" The Li family's guests exclaimed in unison, only then did they realize the true extent of Yue Cheng's cultivation. No wonder they had lost to him.

  Pfft!

  Yue Cheng's eyes suddenly bulged out, and all his momentum came to an abrupt halt in an instant. Even his fist froze in mid-air, stopping just half a foot away from Xia Chen.

  Xia Chen's foot was still on his abdomen, and even the footprint was exactly the same as before. This kick was no different from the previous one, but Yue Cheng couldn't avoid it for some reason.

  Whoosh! Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, Yue Cheng flew up again, and with a loud crash, he smashed a table to pieces, then rolled back down to the ground.

  The hall was silent, with everyone staring at Xia Chen. If it could be considered a coincidence once, then what about twice? What kind of strength did this young man possess to kick away Hou Tian's double-weighted footwork?

  "Bastard..." Yue Cheng struggled to get up, still wanting to charge at Xia Chen, but only managed two steps before heavily falling back onto the ground, starting to groan in pain. Although Xia Chen hadn't used excessive force, his kicks were enough to prevent Yue Cheng from getting back up.

  "I said your skills are too weak, not worth my effort. Even if we were to try, it would be a humiliation for you. Is that wrong?" Xia Chen's mouth curled up in a mocking smile.

  Yue Chen knelt on the ground, almost biting his teeth to pieces. His heart was like a raging fire. Xia Chen's words made him feel even more humiliated than the two kicks he had just received, but he could do nothing about it and could only endure the humiliation.

  "Who else wants to humiliate themselves? Come on up." Xia Chen's gaze swept across the Qin family's guests.

  The Qin family's guests looked at each other in dismay, and even Yue Cheng, the strongest among them, was kicked flying by Xia Chen. If they went up, wouldn't it be even more unbearable?

  No one spoke, all the guests were lowering their heads, not daring to move, afraid that Xia Chen would take a dislike to someone. This young man was simply a reincarnated jinx.

  "A bunch of trash!" Xia Chen sneered, "Come on all at once, I'll take you all on by myself!"
