Chapter Sixteen: "Xu Wuzhou, what did you say?"

Xie Guangping angrily said.

"I didn't say anything, just admiring your mother. She can even cure the infertility that has been passed down in your Xie family, she's a miraculous doctor."

Xu Wuzhou praised.

"Xin, this is your upbringing."

Xie Tao was also enraged, standing up and angrily confronting Qin Li.

Qin Li frowned, not expecting Xu Wuzhou to dare come, and even more so, to dare to insult Xie Tao so much.

He was about to scold Xu Wuzhou a few times to give Xie Tao a way out and save Xu Wuzhou.

But he saw Xu Wuzhou stepping towards the stone platform.

"I don't want to waste time with you. Who will Xie family send up? Finish the bet quickly, I have something to do."

Xu Wuzhou said, looking at Xie Guangping.

The scene was silent, everyone was stunned, even the martial artists fighting on the platform stopped.

"What is this waste doing? He really dares to go up!"

"Ha ha ha, isn't he afraid of being slapped to death?"

"This fool, isn't he blindly confident again?"

"This waste really dares to go up, and even dares to think he can win, treating us as if we don't exist?"

"A worm, disgusting in every way!"

"..." After the silence, the crowd burst into laughter, looking at Xu Wuzhou as if he were a fool.

Who doesn't know this person?

He actually dares to go up.

Qin Qingmou stood there, looking at the young man on the platform, her eyebrows slightly raised. What is he doing?

Isn't he causing enough trouble already?

Qin Li's face was also iron gray. At this time, he still comes to cause trouble. How could Brother Xu raise such a person?

"What? No one is coming up?"

Xu Wuzhou seemed not to hear the ridicule, his gaze fixed on Xie Guangping.

Xie Guangping laughed loudly, "Of course, I will fulfill your wish. Xie Pingcheng, you go up."

As Xie Pingcheng passed by, Xie Guangping whispered, "If you get the chance, cripple him."

Xie Pingcheng nodded and walked up, "Please!"

Seeing Xie Pingcheng about to attack, Xu Wuzhou shouted, "Wait!"

"Ha ha ha! I thought this kid had some courage, but he's still afraid."

"Just like in previous years, he comes up and then backs down."

"Waste is waste. Do you still have any hope for him?"

"We were wrong."

"..." When Xu Wuzhou shouted "wait," the crowd burst into laughter.

At this moment, Xie Guangping said to Qin Li, "Since he admits defeat, Uncle Qin should fulfill the bet."

"Everyone says to take the money to treat your family's infertility, don't be so eager."

Xu Wuzhou said to Xie Guangping, "I just have some doubts about our bet."

"What doubts?"

Xie Guangping hoped Xu Wuzhou would really have some backbone, otherwise, he wouldn't even have the chance to cripple him.

"At the beginning, we agreed that if I don't win, I'll give the Xu family's assets to you. But we didn't say what you would give me if I win."

Xu Wuzhou said.

"What do you want?"

Xie Guangping asked.

Xu Wuzhou said, "Of course, it should be fair. If I win, you give me the Xie family's assets."

Xie Guangping sneered, "You, a wastrel, dare to compare assets with my Xie family. If you are not satisfied with this bet, you can choose not to participate. If you don't participate, I win."

Xu Wuzhou was taken aback, thinking, I am a waste, you should agree to this.

You are so smart, this is no fun.

"Or, how about a discount on the bet, half the assets?"

Xu Wuzhou said.

Xie Guangping said, "If you don't want to participate, come down."

"Ten thousand taels, this should be fair."

Xu Wuzhou said to Xie Guangping.

Qin Yunjie couldn't help but blush, what is this guy doing?

Negotiating business on the dueling platform?

Isn't he ashamed?

"Add another thousand taels to the bet."

Xie Guangping thought he was using this disgusting way to find an excuse to avoid the fight, so he decided to add some silver to make everyone see his trick.

Xie Guangping originally thought Xu Wuzhou would continue to find excuses, say it's too little, and then get angry and say he won't bet and come down.

But to his surprise, Xu Wuzhou said, "Okay, a thousand taels it is, better than nothing."

No one expected Xu Wuzhou to really agree. Xie Pingcheng was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

He smiled and suddenly stomped hard on the blue stone under his feet.

With one stomp, the blue stone under his feet instantly turned to powder, leaving a large footprint.

"One stomp, and the stone turns to powder! Ha ha, kid, don't wet your pants."

Xie Pingcheng punched the ground where Xu Wuzhou was standing.

The blue stone ground instantly cracked, spreading like a spider web to Xu Wuzhou's feet.

Xie Pingcheng laughed coldly, "Scared?"

Everyone could see that Xie Pingcheng was deliberately trying to scare Xu Wuzhou.

They looked at Xu Wuzhou, wanting to see him trembling.

The explosive power of the First Stage of the Postnatal Realm, shattering the stone and cracking the ground, wouldn't Xu Wuzhou panic?

But Xu Wuzhou stood there, letting the ground crack under his feet, without moving.

Seeing that his scare tactic didn't work, Xie Pingcheng frowned and threw another punch, this time directly at Xu Wuzhou.

The punch was powerful, the air was pushed aside, creating a strong wind, and the sound of a sonic boom.

"Xu Wuzhou!"

Qin Li's face changed, wanting to rush down to save Xu Wuzhou, but Xie Guangping stopped him, "The fight is between the young ones, it's not good for us to interfere."

Xie Guangping was fast, and in a blink, he was there.

Qin Li's face changed, this punch would cripple Xu Wuzhou if it hit.

"Quick, get out of the way!"

Qin Li shouted urgently, looking at Xu Wuzhou standing there.

Seeing Xu Wuzhou not moving, everyone laughed, "This kid must be scared stiff."

They thought he was fearless because he showed no expression.

The powerful punch was about to hit Xu Wuzhou, and everyone expected to see blood.

But just as they expected, Xu Wuzhou raised his fist and met the punch head-on.

"Bang!"

The two fists collided, but there was no blood.

Instead, both of them stepped back several steps, evenly matched.

Xu Wuzhou stood there, feeling the force in his arm, thinking, so weak, I thought he was strong. Scaring people with shattered stones? I can break you with one punch.

But to get more out of this, I'll just match him.

I can't come here for nothing, I need to earn some silver.

Even though he was hiding his strength, countless people in the crowd were wide-eyed, some even rubbing their eyes to make sure they weren't seeing things.

Qin Yunjie looked ahead and poked Qin Qingmou, "Sister, help me check my eyes, am I seeing things?"

Qin Qingmou was equally shocked.

She couldn't understand how this person could show such strength.

In the Lin family of the six major families, a curvaceous figure suddenly stood up, her eyes fixed on the scene.

"First Stage of the Postnatal Realm! How can he be at the First Stage of the Postnatal Realm!"

Many people murmured, feeling dry mouths and throats.

At the First Stage of the Postnatal Realm, at Xu Wuzhou's age, he was one of the best in Lin'an Prefecture.

Such strength, compared to his previous reputation, was hard for everyone to accept.

Can a worm become one of the best?

"Good! Good! Good!"

Qin Li was excited, his face flushed, shouting three "goods."

I knew it, how could Brother Xu's son be a waste?

Ha ha ha! This kid has been hiding his strength all along, enduring humiliation for this day to become famous?

This is a good strategy, the shock he brings is even greater than someone reaching the Innate Realm.

Xie Guangping's face was dark, he also didn't expect Xu Wuzhou to have such strength.

Was he pretending all along?

Impossible! Xie Guangping refused to believe anyone could pretend so well.

But if not, how to explain the strength?

"Xie Pingcheng, take him down."

Xie Guangping hoped, cripple him. Even if Xu Wuzhou is hiding his strength, so what? He will become a waste again soon.

In the scene, Xie Pingcheng and Xu Wuzhou were evenly matched.

They continuously attacked, the power of the First Stage of the Postnatal Realm colliding.

The two forces, each showing the strength of nine oxen, continuously exploded, and the crowd heard the sound of sonic booms.

Under their feet, the blue stone ground continuously cracked.

The two rapidly clashed on the platform, their figures moving continuously, one after another, with punches and kicks, shattering stones.

The disciples of the Blood Qi Realm, seeing this, swallowed their saliva, feeling dry mouths and throats.

The strength of the First Stage of the Postnatal Realm was much stronger than the Blood Qi Realm.

At the same time, the two evenly matched fighters made everyone's hearts race.

None of the disciples from the various families wanted Xu Wuzhou to win; no one wanted to see a waste rise. They all hoped Xie Pingcheng would win.
