"Isn't that Shen Xing?"

In a fourth-floor window-facing box, someone heard the commotion in the courtyard below and peeked out, suddenly looking surprised.

The guests in the fourth-floor box were holding silver cards, a rank higher than the copper card that Li Feng had received.

Everyone in this box came from second-rank families of the Fourth Ring.

Fengyun Tower, an industry under Fengyun Pavilion, encompassed dining and entertainment, essentially a mega club in the outside world. In Ancestor Dragon City, which primarily focused on cultivation, this Fengyun Tower was the largest place for leisure.

Even though there was a Fengyun Tower in every ring of the Middle Three Rings, the business of these three buildings differed. For example, the Fengyun Tower in the Sixth Ring only featured the Human List, while the Earth List and Heavenly List were at the Fengyun Towers in the Fifth and Fourth Rings.

There weren't many disputes between the Heavenly List and Earth List. After all, the Fengyun Tower's evaluation was quite objective, and confrontations rarely occurred unless there was a personal vendetta. In situations where strength was evenly matched, one had to reveal their hidden power to win.

The benefits of winning weren't substantial, but losing would both reveal one's trump cards and bring disgrace, making it not worth the risk. As a result, the Fengyun Towers in the Fifth and Fourth Rings were not as lively as the one in the Sixth Ring.

According to the rules set by Fengyun Pavilion, to make it onto any of the three lists - Heavenly, Earth, or Human - one must climb from the bottom level by level.

First, you challenge the last person on the Human List. After ranking, you can continue to challenge the higher-ranked individuals. Only the top ten on the Human List are eligible to challenge the Earth List, and similarly, only the top ten on the Earth List can challenge the Heavenly List.

Hence, the Fengyun Tower in the Sixth Ring is the most bustling, attracting descendants of first- and second-ranked families who come to watch the matches.

Zheng Changge then looked over: "It really is him. What's this guy doing? Weren't Tang Mubai and Shangguan Yao supposed to be the ones fighting next? What trouble is he stirring?"

"Does he look like he's just causing trouble? It seems more like someone forced him up there," someone beside him said with a slight laugh, squinting.

Where there are people, there is a world. All these people had their social circles too. Although they knew Shen Xing, they couldn't mingle with him.

"Forced up there? Although I don't think much of his show-off nature, Shen Xing does have a reason to be proud. Ranked eighty-ninth on the Human List, he's not weak. Who could force him onto the stage?"

Zheng Changge blinked twice.

The one thing they couldn't stand was Shen Xing's pretentious nature. Unfortunately, the social circle was small, and there weren't many places for leisure, so they often clashed with him.

"How would I know? Still, seeing Shen Xing get humiliated is quite a delight."

"I'll drink to that."

Someone directly raised their glass of wine. Though they didn't know who was responsible, they were genuinely pleased by Shen Xing's misfortune.

As they raised their glasses in cheer, Shen Xing, who had fallen onto Fengyun Arena, looked livid. An invisible force lifted him off the ground as he coldly gazed at the betting hall on the second floor. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Li Feng, if you've got the guts, come out! If I don't beat you to death today, my last name isn't Shen."

Shen Xing was truly furious.

As an ordinarily flamboyant and pretentious playboy, Shen Xing always maintained a lofty and graceful image. But today, he lost face in public, and he couldn't swallow this humiliation.

Especially since Li Feng was nothing more than a newcomer from the Lower Three Rings, a character with a bit of strength but lowly status.

He couldn't tolerate this.

Shen Xing's shout echoed in the courtyard, and soon everyone in Fengyun Tower heard it.

"Li Feng?"

In the fourth-floor box, Zheng Changge was taken aback: "Did Shen Xing just call out Li Feng's name?"

"Yes, he did call Li Feng. Why does that name sound familiar?"

"Of course it's familiar. He's the gigolo that Sikong family's eldest lady took a liking to because of his Vermilion Bird Bloodline. The lady went to the Sixth Ring herself and left behind a three-year bet; the story has spread everywhere."

"It's him!"

"I've heard people say Li Feng denied being a bastard child of the Sikong family and clearly stated he has no relation with them. Until now, those with the Vermilion Bird Bloodline have all been descendants of the Sikong Family. Where did this Li Feng come from?"

"Who knows? Whether he's related to the Sikong family remains uncertain, but judging from Sikong Yu's actions, if Li Feng has the Sikong bloodline, he will definitely be brought back to the Sikong family. If not, he won't escape their grasp."

"The Sikong family's eldest daughter must have it all figured out. Well, Li Feng won't escape her grasp, whether as a brother or a husband."

"This guy got lucky. Though the eldest daughter of the Sikong family has a bit of a temper, she's a real catch."

"Of course! She's one of the top ten beauties in Ancestor Dragon City, each a knockout beauty and incredibly talented. Plus, she's ranked ninth on the Earth List."

They all sighed when talking about Sikong Yu, both for her looks and talent, lamenting that they weren't fortunate enough to be in her favor.

"We're straying off topic. I'm curious about how Li Feng got involved with Shen Xing," Zheng Changge said, bringing everyone back to focus.

"Indeed, Li Feng sure knows how to stir things up. He just survived after taking on an entire family, the Zeng Family, alone, and rather than lying low, accepted a young master from the Fang Family as a disciple, publicly denied any blood relation to the Sikong family, fought Ximen Chengfeng from the Ximen Family, and now he's provoked Shen Xing from the Human List."

"Wow, these three to five days, Li Feng seems to be everywhere every day."

"Yes, Li Feng is quite the troublemaker."

Zheng Changge nodded, then turned to the silent Bai Yi beside him: "Yi, what do you think?"

Bai Yi smiled faintly: "The misfortunes sent by Heaven can be endured; self-made misfortunes cannot."

"We should just enjoy the show,"

"True, if both of them end up mutually wounded, regardless of who wins or loses, it's good for us." Zheng Changge quickly realized that they needn't worry so much. If both of them ended up in ruin, that would be perfect.

Meanwhile, not only were the people in Bai Yi's box paying attention, but many others also discussed the commotion.

"Dear guest, you wouldn't be thinking...!" Xiaoxiao looked at Li Feng, suddenly realizing a possibility. Was he doing it on purpose?

Earlier, in the box, Li Feng had asked how to get onto the Human List.

Li Feng turned to Xiaoxiao and said, "Hey, he's already calling me out. If I back down now, wouldn't I look cowardly?"

With that, Li Feng walked out to the gallery outside the hall, took a step, and leapt into the courtyard.

"Oh my god, what's he doing? Didn't he say he was going to place a bet?"

In the third-floor box, Xiao Luobing held her forehead, speechless. She knew this would happen.
