"Make your move, I'm in a hurry."
Du Fei glanced indifferently at Du Jie and the other four, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.
This slightly indifferent gaze, however, ignited the anger in Du Jie and the others.
"Du Fei, you can be arrogant now! After the clan competition, you'll be like dog shit on the ground, and anyone can step on you! Rest assured, I'll step on you every day!" Du Jie, holding his face swollen like a pig's head, sneered and then waved his hand sharply, "Attack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Jie and the other three rushed towards Du Fei.
Below the seventh level of Body Tempering, no one could cultivate martial techniques; it was a test of physical strength and understanding of the Body Tempering Fist.
"Ghost Shadow Kick!"
"Mountain Splitting Fist!"
"Hundred Steps Palm!"
"Unstoppable Step!"
Seeing the four people instantly close in on him, Du Fei did not dodge but smiled slightly, inwardly marveling, "Not bad, all of you are still at the fifth level of Body Tempering!"
Seeing Du Fei standing still in the encirclement, Du Jie's eyes flashed with viciousness.
"Du Fei! Today, I will make you lose everything!"
"Just that much!"
As the four people approached, Du Fei suddenly exhaled slightly, then his foot slid back half a step, and his right hand lightly slapped to the side... "Slap..."
His palm perfectly blocked the fist of the first person, and at the same time, Du Fei's powerful true breath penetrated the other's body, causing him to spew blood from his mouth. However, Du Fei did not stop there; he twisted his right hand again, using the person's body as a weapon to swing around!
"Spit... Spit... Spit..."
The sounds of spitting blood came one after another. Du Jie and the other three, who were surrounding him, were forced back, spitting blood, and after retreating a few steps, they all fell to the ground, their faces as pale as paper.
The entire venue fell silent!
In one move, all four were defeated! What was going on!
Du Fei did not feel the slightest bit of pride from this; he just smiled faintly and cast a strange look at Du Qing: "Young Master Du Qing, it seems your so-called test is a bit too simple!"
"Seventh level of Body Tempering..."
After taking a deep breath, Du Qing's expression finally turned serious. After a moment, he hesitantly and slowly spoke... Only the seventh level of Body Tempering could defeat four people at the fifth level in an instant! Even if Du Qing was unwilling, he had to believe this unbelievable fact.
The entire venue erupted in a commotion!
For Du Fei, the people of the Du family, and even the people of Beyond City, had all heard a bit about him. They naturally knew that three months ago, his strength was only at the fourth level of Body Tempering!
But now, his displayed strength made everyone look at him with new eyes!
Advancing three levels in three months!
Almost no one believed it!
Silence! A deathly silence enveloped the entire venue. At this moment, everyone's face was filled with extreme shock, even to the point of forgetting to breathe!
"Another prodigy has appeared in the Du family!" In the VIP seats, many people drew a sharp breath and could not help but mutter in their hearts.
"Bang..."
In the VIP seats, Du Zhen Tian's hands, which were resting on the armrests of his chair, were crushed, but he seemed to feel nothing.
"Seventeen years old, seventh level of Body Tempering! Ancestors of the Du family, bless us!" Looking at the young man on the stage with a calm expression, Du Zhen Tian seemed to see another figure he once loved dearly, "Tian, he is worthy of being your son! Worthy of being my grandson!"
The three elders sitting around Du Zhen Tian were also stunned by the shock. This terrifying cultivation speed... If the other party were a famous genius, it would be one thing! But the other party was a known waste in the Du family! How did a waste suddenly become a genius!
"Could it be that Du Tian has been hiding his true abilities all along? He has been making the family believe that his son is a waste who cannot cultivate! Just for today!" This thought simultaneously arose in the minds of the three elders, as it was almost the only possibility!
But even so, seventeen years old, seventh level of Body Tempering! He was a genius among geniuses!
"Clang..."
The teacup in Du Xuan Feng's hand fell to the ground. After a moment, he smacked his lips and said, "Worthy of being my fourth brother's son, this terrifying cultivation talent is just like his. Qian, the husband I chose for you is not bad, right? He is barely worthy of you, right?"
"More or less!" Du Qian said indifferently, her tone showing no sign of shock, as if everything was taken for granted.
Du Xuan Feng, who was quite familiar with his prodigious daughter, could only smile bitterly and shake his head. This girl's personality...
"When did Young Master become so powerful?" Xiao Ai was also shocked, but after a moment, her shock turned to joy. She was probably the only one in the venue who was genuinely happy for Du Fei.
On the other side.
"Big Brother Du, this Young Master Du Fei's cultivation talent is probably not much different from yours! It seems that your Du family will have another prodigy!" Gong Sun Hong covered her slightly open, delicate red lips in surprise and then said with a hint of astonishment.
"This guy has been hiding his true abilities..." Du Han did not deny it but said indifferently.
"Three months, advancing three levels... this speed..." Lian Zhen gritted his teeth, a hint of fear flashing through his mind.
"If he can do this in three months, what about a year?"
At this thought, Lian Zhen could not help but shudder. A fierce killing intent flashed through his mind!
This person cannot be left alive! If not eliminated, he will surely become a great disaster for the Lian family in the future!
On the stage.
Du Fei's half-smiling, half-serious gaze still rested on Du Qing. After the other party slightly recovered, he smiled and said, "So, Young Master Du Qing, what other tests do you have in mind? But, you'd better not come yourself. If you lose your status as an inner disciple, everything will be mine!"
"You..." Although extremely shocked, Du Qing still had some composure. He naturally knew that if he fought Du Fei here, it would only benefit others. After cursing inwardly for a moment, Du Qing's expression returned to normal, and he said coldly, "Talking big now, what's so great? We'll see the real stuff in a moment."
"Is that so?" Du Fei smiled faintly, "If Young Master Du Qing wants to fight later, then please clear the stage? If you don't make a move, I will!"
Du Qing's face changed slightly. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and moved slightly, driving all the extra people off the stage. Thus, the first round of the clan competition ended, with sixteen people advancing.
"The first round of the clan competition is over! Those remaining on the stage are the winners of this round and will become inner disciples of the Du family! The second round of the clan competition will now begin! The winner of the second round will become the ninth core disciple of the Du family!"
After being stunned by the scene on the stage for a moment, Du Xuan Feng stood up and announced in a slightly hesitant tone.
Although Du Xuan Feng said this, the attention of the VIPs and the Du family members was mostly focused on Du Fei and Du Qing.
If Du Qing becoming a core disciple was a sure thing, then Du Fei was a sudden dark horse. Under the glow of these two, the others seemed somewhat dim.
"Cough..."
After a slight cough to regain everyone's attention, Du Xuan Feng waved his hand. Eight bamboo sticks flew from his hand and landed on the stage, trembling slightly.
"The second round begins, as usual! Those who draw the same number will fight! Those who do not draw a stick or choose to give up, step down! Begin!"
Upon hearing this, a few of the sixteen remaining on the stage hesitated for a moment before jumping down. These few had a clear understanding of their own abilities; even if they stayed, they would not be able to compete with Du Fei and Du Qing, so it was better to be straightforward.
The remaining people, however, had a bit of a scavenger's mentality. Two strong opponents fighting, and others would benefit!
Unfortunately, this time, Du Fei and Du Qing did not have a conflict like before. Both casually drew the nearest bamboo stick, and no one dared to compete with them.
After a small-scale scramble, the participants for the second round of the clan competition were selected.
"Starting from number one, the rest can leave the stage!" Seeing the eight selected, Du Xuan Feng clapped his hands and said indifferently.
Du Fei glanced at the bamboo stick in his hand, smiled slightly, and then his gaze fell on Du Qing. "If you are also number one, let's start."
"Unfortunately, I'm not!" Du Qing sneered, "Want to compete with me? It's too early... I'll be waiting for you later!"
Hearing this, Du Fei did not say much, just smiled and shook his head, his expression extremely calm.
But this calmness made Du Qing's heart burn with anger. He pouted and then hummed, jumping off the stage.
