Very quickly.

Meanwhile, Shi Heng had only spoken a few words when the tavern began to bustle with activity.

Han Hong watched with envy.

No particular reason.

He didn't have such privileges in this tavern.

Han Hong silently decided that he, too, needed to become a diamond member of this tavern.

It's just money.

He had plenty!

Just renew it!

Soon.

A tavern employee passed by Han Hong.

Han Hong quickly stopped him, smiled, and said somewhat smugly to the employee: "This time, you are lucky to meet me."

The employee immediately showed a smile upon hearing Han Hong's words.

Someone is going to give him a tip!

"Sir, how would you like me to serve you?"

The employee smiled obsequiously.

Han Hong spoke indifferently:

"It's simple. I want to sign up for a diamond membership at this tavern. I'll give you a large sum of money, and the remaining change is yours. You don't need to give me back the change."

However.

The employee who had just been smiling instantly gave Han Hong a strange look upon hearing his words.

The smile disappeared from his face.

"What's wrong? Does it require a lot of money to sign up for a diamond membership here? No problem, I, Han Hong, have never lacked money!"

Han Hong boasted, looking proud.

Yet, the employee glanced around, seemingly feeling embarrassed for Han Hong, and softly said:

"Dear guest, it's not just about money for our diamond membership."

"It's about status."

"If you are a first-class Feng Shui Master, you can become a diamond member here without spending a penny. But if you are not a first-class Feng Shui Master, no matter how much you spend, you can't become a diamond member."

"..."

The smile on Han Hong's face slowly stiffened with the employee's words.

He had been boasting for so long, never imagining his show-off would end this way.

"Fine, I got it."

Han Hong didn't know how he managed to say that from his throat. As he spoke, sweat had already started to form on his forehead, and he left immediately.

The employee looked at Han Hong's departing back, his lips moved.

The lip movement suggested two words:

"Bad luck!"

The employee had originally thought someone was going to give him a tip.

Unexpectedly, the person had no intention of tipping at all.

He didn't even understand the rules of the tavern!

...

At the Feng Shui Master competition arena.

A platform that was only four square meters.

On the platform, there were two opposing rooms.

In the small rooms, only one person could stand inside.

In front of the room, there was a large screen.

Evidently, the competition would occur inside a space, shown on the big screen.

The screen would capture every action of the competitors inside that space.

At the moment.

Wang Ye and Qiu Te stood together.

They looked at each other with hostile eyes, wanting to defeat each other as soon as possible.

Han Hong had just come in, although he appeared calm, his feet awkwardly fidgeted, almost penetrating his exquisite shoes.

"When does the competition start?"

Han Hong impatiently asked.

He was eager for the competition to begin, hoping to see Wang Ye defeated by his disciple Qiu Te.

This would lessen the embarrassment he had just felt.

"No hurry."

Wang Ye responded leisurely to Han Hong's inquiry.

The people present looked at Wang Ye in doubt.

The competition was about to start, but Wang Ye said not to hurry?

Could it be that Wang Ye was afraid?

Under the suspicious gaze of the crowd, Wang Ye's nonchalant attitude showed he wasn't worried about being misunderstood. He respectfully addressed Han Hong:

"Senior Han, I have something to tell you."

"Just say it!"

Senior Han narrowed his eyes and stared at Wang Ye: "Are you scared because the competition is about to start? Do you want to repent soon?"

"No problem, you can go back on your words. Just say you aren't as strong as my disciple Qiu Te, and you won't need to compete."

Senior Han finished, somewhat smugly, giving Wang Ye a look.

He enjoyed this feeling of winning without a fight.

Just the thought felt more satisfying than directly defeating Shi Heng.

After all, Wang Ye, as Shi Heng's disciple, didn't even dare to compete and wanted to surrender directly.

The surrounding crowd eyed Wang Ye suspiciously.

Could it be... Wang Ye planned to surrender?

Probably not.

Wang Ye was Shi Heng's disciple.

Shi Heng wouldn't have a disciple who would plan to surrender just before the competition starts.

Shi Heng stood silently on the side.

Though Wang Ye appeared as his disciple.

Shi Heng knew he was not Wang Ye's master.

Whatever Wang Ye planned to do wasn't his concern.

Losing face wasn't a big deal for Shi Heng.

Because his strength was inherent.

Even if Wang Ye wasn't his real disciple, Shi Heng wouldn't feel embarrassed if Wang Ye surrendered.

As long as he remained powerful, it didn't matter.
