Hit someone but not the face, expose someone but not their shortcomings.

The counterattack by the two from the Tang Sect was extremely fierce, and they praised one while stepping on another. Not only did this provoke discord, but they also understood well the idea that without comparison, there is no harm.

"Li Feng, don't be impulsive."

This time, it was Tie Xuan who tried to advise Li Feng. Tie Xuan had fought Li Feng twice before, and Li Feng's sharpness was no less than Tie Xuan's fiery temperament.

Li Feng chuckled lightly, "Is that all?"

"Tang Sect, huh? I'm kind of looking forward to meeting you on the ring now."

"Hmph."

Tang Chuan looked disdainful, "Really, I think you'd better pray not to meet me in the ring, or I will really knock your teeth out and make you swallow them. I, Tang Chuan, never boast idly."

Li Feng smiled and didn't bother to argue.

But Li Feng had indeed remembered the Tang Sect.

The front desk procedures were completed quickly, and Li Feng and others immediately left.

"Chuan Shao, could this get us into trouble?"

Seeing Li Feng and others walked away, the Tang Sect disciple who had previously chimed in spoke.

"Trouble? What trouble could there be?"

Tang Chuan replied dismissively.

"If it was just Li Feng alone, it wouldn't be a problem. But isn't the Xingyi Sect Leader also here? He holds a decent position in the National Martial Arts Research Association. We belittled someone in front of him; won't he hold a grudge?"

Someone next to him said.

Tang Chuan sneered, "The Xingyi Sect has enough troubles of its own. Moreover, how can the Xingyi Sect compare to my Tang Sect?"

"If it weren't for my Tang Sect always staying hidden and never accepting disciples openly, what are the Top Three Sects and the Lower Nine Sects before the mighty Tang Sect?"

"This time, my Tang Sect is participating in this National Martial Arts Tournament to show the world our strength. Otherwise, they might really think my Tang Sect only exists in novels."

"As for this Southeast District, huh, besides Hua Wushuang being a worthy opponent, the others are insignificant. Compared to the Southeast District, even the Central Plains District, Yanbei District, and Northeast Region are worth more attention."

"There are only five worth contending with me. You all must bring some pride to my Tang Sect. In the Southwest District, we Tang Clan hold half the territory. If we don't achieve a good result in this National Martial Arts Tournament, don't even bother facing me, let alone lifting your head back at Tang Family."

"Don't worry, Brother Chuan, we won't hold us back."

Tang Chuan turned to look at someone in the team, "I'm not worried about you all, but you, Bai Wei, don't hold us back."

Tang Chuan didn't wait for Bai Wei to respond and directly turned around.

The other three also glanced at Bai Wei and followed Tang Chuan, while Bai Wei seemed out of place. Bai Wei's identity was a bit special; he was the Tang Sect's son-in-law.

Tang Sect's hidden weapons are only passed within the Tang family, and Bai Wei is the only exception. Besides being a son-in-law, it was also due to his background.

And being an outsider who learned the Tang Sect's hidden weapons naturally drew hostility and exclusion from Tang Chuan and other Tang family members.

Bai Wei was used to it, trailing behind the others without explanations or emotions.

"Did you hear that people from the Tang Sect got into a conflict with those in the Southeast District?"

When Wang Jinkun returned to the hotel, someone relayed this news. Wang Jinkun's background was not simple.

He was not only from the Hunyuan Xingyi Sect but also the young master of Shengshi Group, which owns the Sheng Tang Hotel.

Wang Jinkun was sent abroad for studies at a young age and joined the Hunyuan Xingyi Sect there, apprenticing under the sect leader Master Ma.

"Yes, Young Master Kun."

Wang Jinkun tapped the back of the sofa chair, "Tang Sect, among the ten who advanced from the Southwest District, the Tang Sect accounted for half."

"Tang Sect's leader, Tang Chuan, is the direct grandson of the Tang Sect's old sect leader. His strength is unknown; it's only said that when he makes a move, no one can get close to him or last more than three seconds."

"The Tang Sect is adept not only in hidden weapons but also in using poison. The combination is hard to defend against, especially in the limited space of a ring, which is a significant advantage."

"The thousand-year-old Tang Sect has been hidden for years and now wants to make a grand debut, to amaze everyone with a single feat."

"Well, then grant his wish. Come here."

Wang Jinkun beckoned to an aide, whispered a few words in his ear, "Just do it like this."

"Yes, Young Master Kun."

Watching his aide leave, Wang Jinkun was in a good mood, humming a tune, "Let the Tang Sect be my touchstone."

This National Martial Arts Tournament sees the Wang Family as a major sponsor; otherwise, the final venue wouldn't have ended up in Changkong.

Since it's in Changkong, naturally, he could make some manipulations in the competition.

Just group the Tang Sect with the Xingyi Sect people and watch them fight it out.

Thinking of this, a cold smile crept onto Wang Jinkun's lips.

"These damn Tang Sect people, they're simply a bunch of petty people. We didn't provoke them, yet they came to pick on us. Are they crazy?"

Tie Xuan, with a fiery temper, spoke up.

Li Feng wasn't too upset. He'd seen many arrogant people, and besides, they couldn't make a move before the actual competition. Talking big was just a waste of breath.

Knock, knock, knock.

Just as Tie Xuan was complaining, there was a knock on the door. Li Feng got up to open it, and Xiao Xi came straight in.

"Are you okay?"

"What could happen to me?"

"One should not hit someone's face or expose their flaws, and online rumors aren't true. The Tang Sect's people have foul mouths."

"Besides, I think they are deliberately provoking. What exactly is the Tang Sect trying to do?"

Xiao Xi walked in without standing on ceremony.

Li Feng shrugged his shoulders.

"We had no previous grudge, so there's only one possibility."

"Oh, what possibility?"

Xiao Xi and Tie Xuan looked at Li Feng, who said, "Stepping on others to get ahead, but their target shouldn't be me."

"Oh?"

"Tang Chuan didn't even consider me. He's promoting Hua Wushuang, wanting to make a name by stepping on him. As for stepping on me, I just happened to be an accessory to Hua Wushuang's distinction."

Li Feng saw it clearly.

Tang Chuan's arrogance was evident in his words, and he regarded everyone but Hua Wushuang as worthless, his attitude unmistakable.

Of course, this was because Hua Wushuang was famous enough, the top of the young generation, the closest to the Grandmaster Realm among the youth.

As for Li Feng, although he had secured a spot to advance, his prowess wasn't widely known, as the advancement processes in various districts were quite confidential.

Though not lacking individuals recording in each district, most couldn't make it to the end. During the initial stages, with so many participants, only some key targets were noted.

"That's indeed despicable. Who knew plotting and scheming would start before the martial arts tournament even began?"

Xiao Xi pouted and said.

"Is there a need for all these tricks? In the end, it's the strength in the ring that counts. If you have real skills, otherwise, what's the use of being arrogant if you lose? Isn't that more of a slap in the face later?"

Tie Xuan also let out a cold sneer.
