Chapter 187 Arrival at the Central Battlefield (2/2)
He was not a person without tact.
After he had said his piece, Marshal Xianming naturally knew that his presence would only prevent the others from acting as they wished, afraid of stepping out of line.
The rest would be able to feel more at ease only if he left, and that was exactly what he did.
This was the keen awareness of a superior, knowing exactly when to take his leave.
Indeed, right after Marshal Xianming left, the atmosphere softened significantly as everyone felt slightly more relaxed.
”Greetings,” Formation Master Beimu was the first to step forward. ”You must be Elder Mingxin of the Nine Suns Sect?”
”I am, indeed,” Elder Mingxin nodded hesitantly. ”I am sorry, may I know who…?”
”I am Beimu Ting of the Beimu Clan,” Formation Master Beimu smiled.
”Elder Mingxin,” Lu Tianzi hurried forward at this moment. ”This is Formation Master Beimu, the master of the Beimu Clan!”
”So it is Formation Master Beimu!” Elder Mingxin exclaimed, obviously taken aback by the revelation. ”It is an honour to finally meet you in the flesh!”
Never in her life would she have expected that such a bigshot would take the initiative to greet her!
”The honour is mine as well,” Formation Master Beimu was as graceful as ever, flashing a radiant smile towards Lu Tianzi in acknowledgement before turning back to Elder Mingxin. ”You must be tired after your journey, let us talk while we walk. After all, Marshal Xianming is still awaiting your audience. This way, please.”
”Yes, please!” Elder Mingxin nodded before following her into the camp.
Along with them, the other three battalion commanders stepped forward and started greeting the various experts in the welcome party as well.
However, they were annoyed to realise that most of these experts in the welcome party were not too interested in entertaining them, brushing them off with a few words of pleasantries.
Instead, these experts directed their attention towards a single individual, a mere squad leader.
Having experienced a few banquets that were all about networking, Lu Tianzi was starting to grow used to handling the attention as well.
He chatted with the many Origin Core realm martial artists in a manner that could be likened to a well practised performance, showing humility but not weakness, confidence but not arrogance.
This impressive display not only earned him the approval of these Origin Core realm seniors, but also the awe of his peers.
In comparison, poor Juncheng who had been standing by his side felt like he was about to suffocate from the psychological pressure!
Still, seeing how expertly Lu Tianzi was handling everything, Juncheng quickly found a newfound respect for his squad leader.
”With this many people crowding around him, I can't say hi to him if I even wanted to!” Beimu Fei grumbled to Nanlan Qianxue.
”Haha, he sure is a popular one, isn't he?” Nanlan Qianxue laughed.
Back when Beimu Fei visited Bluenight City for the Wild Melody Circus, they had gotten to know each other, albeit only on casual terms.
”One day, I will certainly become just as famous!” Nanqing Haowen voiced out his resolve.
”Yeah, sure,” Beimu Fei shrugged, not bothering to hide her condescendence in her tone. ”But even if you manage to do so by some form of miracle, it might not be a good thing either. After all, you would not only have to learn to handle the positive attention, but also the negative ones.”

”Negative attention?” Nanqing Haowen turned to look at Beimu Fei in confusion. ”What do you mean?”
”See? This just proves that you won't be able to handle it, you oblivious brat,” Beimu Fei shook her head in disapproval.
At the same time, her gaze stretched past the various experts in the vicinity, until it finally landed on a young man who was standing silently by the side.
Sensing her attention directed towards him, Beiqian Ming confidently matched her gaze for a moment before turning to leave.
He was not the only one who left without speaking to Lu Tianzi either.
While there were many who wanted to establish good ties with Lu Tianzi, there were also those who had their reservations about chatting up a mere Essence Condensation realm martial artist.
To these people, asking them to take the initiative to speak to a brat like that was almost the same as asking them to put down their pride!
Why would they be willing to do so for someone who had yet to prove his worth to them?
”Welcome to the central battlefields,” Fourth Prince Mosha spoke, his voice surprising everyone present, including Beimu Fei.
The indifferent Fourth Prince Mosha had actually decided to stay and greet Nanlu Tianzi?
Was it because of their encounter during the Scarlet Moon Heroes Meet?
”Congratulations for breaking through to the Origin Core realm!” Lu Tianzi was shocked to see the other party's cultivation level initially, but he quickly regained his composure.
”Yes, I did.” Fourth Prince Mosha answered.
Just when everyone was thinking that Fourth Prince Mosha's reply was a little cold, he continued after a short pause. ”I will be waiting for you to enter the Origin Core realm. We can have our rematch then.”
Everyone's eyes immediately lit up in surprise.
That was a challenge!
To think that the indifferent Fourth Prince Mosha would speak of such words to someone who was only at the Essence Condensation realm, it seemed that he was truly quite affected by the loss during the Scarlet Moon Heroes Meet!
Hearing his words, Lu Tianzi could not help but let out a smirk. ”You won't have to wait long.”
”That I am certain as well,” Fourth Prince Mosha's resolute tone in his reply took even Lu Tianzi by surprise.
At this point, Lu Tianzi could not help but give Fourth Prince Mosha a complete reassessment.
He did not know why, but Lu Tianzi had a feeling that out of everyone he had met so far, Fourth Prince Mosha could very well be the one who had the highest evaluation of him!
And if that was truly the case, then Fourth Prince Mosha's instincts as a martial artist could actually be far more fearsome than he had first imagined!
