"This..."

  At this moment, people were thoroughly bewildered, and the scene on the fighting stage was really at a loss for what to do. Even Chen Wanshu, who was normally indifferent, couldn't help but turn his head and cast his gaze towards Chu Feng.

  Is Chu Feng really that strong? Strong enough to be on par with Chen Fan, and able to easily defeat Yuan Wu with his Lingwu Eighth Level cultivation?

  Although the world is not lacking in talented people who can win with strength, those are all big shots after all. Could this unimpressive-looking young man also be such a genius?

  All sorts of incredible ideas began to emerge, and for the first time, people felt that they might have underestimated Chu Feng, and perhaps from the very beginning, Chu Feng had not cheated, he was relying on his own strength to get here.

  "Lord of the castle, this..."

  The guards of the Purple Gold City were shocked, they had always looked down on Chu Feng before, thinking that he was here because of his relationship with Su Rou.

  Especially after Chu Feng replaced Wan Wengpeng, he was even more resentful of Chu Feng to the extreme. However, at this moment, he began to doubt whether his previous views on Chu Feng were correct and couldn't help but reflect on it.

  "Maybe Miss Su Rou is right, this Chu Feng might bring us a surprise."

  Chen Hui's face was filled with a relieved smile, in fact he had previously thought that Chu Feng was a burden just like the guards beside him, but now it seemed that not only was Chu Feng not a burden, but rather a bargaining chip for his future as the City Lord of Zi Jin City.

  "How is this possible? This guy has such strong strength? Won't it be that the opponent received some benefits and intentionally let him win?"

  However, compared to others, those newcomers in the Purple Gold City were unwilling to accept this fact. After all, they looked down on Chu Feng from the bottom of their hearts and wished for him to make a fool of himself.

  But at the moment, Chu Feng not only didn't lose face, but instead stole the show. This comparison no longer made Chu Feng look bad, but rather made them look bad.

  After all, they didn't even make it into the top ten, but Chu Feng defeated two core disciples of first-rate sects on that arena, one of whom was even a core disciple of the number one sect, Lingyun Sect. This was simply too overpowering, at least none of them could achieve this, not even Wan Wenpeng.

  Under the gaze of countless people in shock, Chu Feng walked down from the fighting stage with a smile on his face. Those eyes had already changed from their initial disdain to astonishment.

  And when Chu Feng ended the fight in a flash, that young man from Wind Cloud City once again became the sole focus of attention.

  And this time, the young man from Fengyuncheng won again after a long battle, making people wonder if he was intentionally hiding his strength or if his opponent was too strong.

  "No need to come down anymore, this rookie conference, I've lost patience, just make a decision quickly!"

  Just as the young man from Fengyun City was about to step down from the dueling platform, Chen Xian suddenly lifted her skirt and jumped onto the platform, surprisingly volunteering to duel with that young man from Fengyun City.

  "Please give me more guidance next time!"

  As for Chen Wangxi's actions, the young man from Fengyuncheng just smiled calmly and politely bowed his head to Chen Wangxi, seemingly without any mental burden due to Chen Wangxi's previously displayed strength.

  "Hmph." Chen Wanxi let out a cold snort, and with a single palm strike through the air, she defeated her opponents one by one. It wasn't a fancy martial technique, but it contained powerful yuan energy that could knock people out instantly.

  "Hmph." However, facing Chen Wanshan's attack, Duan Qiu didn't dodge or evade. With a casual wave of his hand, a layer of yuan energy spread out from his palm and easily dissipated Chen Wanshan's attack.

  "You really were hiding your strength. Is this interesting?" Chen didn't seem too surprised, but instead had a hint of anger in his eyes.

  "Hah, I just like to enjoy the process of battle, what's wrong with that?"

  "You and I both like fighting, it's just that you pursue the outcome, while I enjoy the process. The result doesn't matter to me, because in the end, I'm always the one who wins." Ding Ou's face still wore that calm smile, but now it seemed not calmness, but confidence.

  "What a big tone you have! I'd like to see how you can win over me."

  Chen sighed again, and his palms struck out in rapid succession, each blow sending a tremor through the air. A brilliant golden palm print also condensed and emerged.

  Under her extreme hand speed, the entire fighting stage was filled with dense golden palm prints, like numerous golden meteor showers, striking towards Ding Chou.

  "Regrettably, Miss's methods are too formidable. Although it was only a four-segment martial skill, it was executed flawlessly, almost comparable to a five-segment martial skill." The guards of the Imperial City were shocked beyond words.

  "It's a pity for this girl, she is indeed a true martial arts genius. From the perspective of her innate talent in martial arts, she has surpassed me." Chen Hui, as Chen Wanzhi's father, was even more delighted, laughing with his mouth wide open.

  "The Meteor Palm Technique was used quite well, but unfortunately, it still lacked a bit of finesse."

  Na Ding's eyes narrowed slightly, his breath circulating, and then he launched a series of palm strikes, surprisingly displaying the same martial technique as Chen Wanxi, and even surpassing him in terms of power.

  Rumble rumble rumble

  Golden palm shadows burst forth on the fighting stage, layers of yuan energy continuously spreading out, that kind of mighty aura even people outside the plaza could feel, this is the true power that two Yuan Wu realm experts should possess.

  It wasn't until now that people realized Ding Chou had indeed been hiding his strength. Thinking back to their previous exchange, it wasn't that he was weak, but rather that he had been holding back on purpose. His true strength not only surpassed Chen Wuyan's, but even exceeded it by a notch.

  "Awesome, that Ding Chou is indeed worthy of being the representative of Fengyun City. In terms of strength, he's even stronger than Chen Yunxiao. It seems like this year's New Star Conference champion will be from Fengyun City again!" Su Hen commented.

  "Father, isn't it too early to say that? Even if Chen Yunxiao can't defeat Ding Chou, the demon of Qinglong Sect hasn't appeared yet!" Su Rou stood behind Su Hen, smiling sweetly.

  "Chu Feng is indeed a genius, there's no need to doubt that. However, Ding Ou is not an ordinary person either. Haven't you noticed that up until now, he hasn't used his full strength? He hasn't even used his Xuan Gong, and the martial skills he has displayed are not his strongest. I estimate that if he were to use his full strength, his actual power might be comparable to that of a Three-Star Martial Emperor."

  "While Chu Feng is indeed powerful, he is currently only at the 8th level of the Spiritual Martial Realm. Even if he has the cultivation of the 1st level of the Origin Martial Realm, he may have a chance to defeat Ding Ou, but as long as he remains in the Spiritual Martial Realm, even if he reaches the 9th level, he will absolutely not be a match for Ding Ou." Su Hen shook his head.

  "Father, you still don't understand Chu Feng well enough. You know that Ding Chou didn't use his full strength, does that mean Chu Feng used his full strength?" Su Rou disagreed with Su He's view.

  "You're quite confident in Chu Feng, aren't you? Want to make a bet with me?" Su He said with an eerie smile.
