Chapter 254 Response (1/2)

”I'm the reason huh…”

Zhou Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly after hearing what they had to say. Lu Feng was clearly doing this on purpose, his aim to make the other continent disciples resent Zhou Yuan. When that happened, he would not only have to face hostility from the Shengzhou disciples but also the criticism of the disciples from the other continents. With unfriendliness from both sides, Zhou Yuan's situation would not be good.

”There's already some other continent disciples that have began to complain. They feel that it's clearly a grudge between only you and Lu Feng, but it has now ended up implicating them…” Qiao Xiu smiled bitterly.

If this continued, Zhou Yuan would become highly criticized.

A mocking look rose from the corners of Zhou Yuan's mouth as he said, ”It's clearly Lu Feng who started this, what kind of logic is it to throw their complaints to me instead of him?”

Although Lu Feng's tactics were underhanded, Zhou Yuan felt that the disciples who blamed him were even more stupid.

Shen Wanjin's mouth pulled outwards as he said, ”These guys only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong. They don't dare to voice their objections to Lu Feng, so they made up another reason to vent their frustrations.”

Lu Feng clearly knew that this would be the outcome, hence why he had acted so outrageously.

After all, the t.i.tle of the number one individual amongst the outer mountain disciples was a powerful deterrent force. Even though Zhou Yuan had defeated an inner mountain disciple in a Genesis technique match, he was still unable to compare to Lu Feng.

Everyone felt Lu Feng was very likely to become a well known figure of this batch in the Cangxuan Sect, and his future prospects were practically limitless. Hence, they would naturally not dare to offend him.

Qiao Xiu nodded. ”However, quite a number of people have complaints against you, while even more are very angry at Lu Feng's overbearingness but can't do anything about it.”

”According to these rules of his, the Shengzhou disciples will be occupying eight of the top ten spots, leaving the rest of us to fight for the remaining two. There are so many of us from the other continents, can you imagine how wretched and desperate the situation will be.”

Zhou Yuan counter asked, ”On what basis should we listen to him? Does the likes of him have the right to allocate these places?”

The top ten spots of the peak selection ceremony should be contested based on one's own strength. Who the h.e.l.l did Lu Feng think he was, and how thick skinned was he to think he could decide on how they should be split?

Qiao Xiu smiled bitterly. ”I've heard that the peak selection ceremony will be a free-for-all battlem, while the quality of the Shengzhou disciples far surpa.s.ses the rest of us. Take the top ten outer mountains disciples for example, a total of seven are from the Shengzhou continent.”

”Hence, when the time comes to vie for the top ten spots of the peak selection ceremony, they will have the upper hand.”

”What's more, they have Lu Feng, whom no one has been able to come close to. Now that he has even brought together the Shengzhou disciples to decide the allocation of the top ten spots, whoever tries to touch those spots would have to face all of the Shengzhou disciples.”

”In the face of this power, the disciples from the other continents are merely akin to a plate of scattered sand. Who would dare to object? After all, once the other party is provoked, they can easily join hands in the peak selection ceremony to make things difficult. Let alone the top ten, one might be hard pressed to even obtain a decent ranking.”

Zhou Yuan indifferently remarked, ”In the end, it depends on whose fist is harder.”

He looked towards Qiao Xiu and Shen Wanjin as he continued, ”I do not know whether the others will acknowledge his allocation, but with regards to my ranking, I'm afraid that they don't have the qualifications.”

”Moreover…”

”I'm not interested in the other spots either, the only thing I want in the peak selection ceremony is first place.”

His tone was ordinary, but the words he spoke stunned Qiao Xiu and Shen Wanjin.
