Chapter 397: Enmity

“Wang Cheng! Don’t go too far. Senior Brother Wang Hongyu has already done his best. To be able to deal with a body cultivator to such an extent, what more do you want him to do?”

“That’s right! Do you know how hard senior brother has worked? If it weren’t for you stupid body cultivators, how could senior brother have lost?”

“That Lu Peng is so arrogant and provocative. Yet, you don’t even dare to fight him. What right do you have to talk about Senior Brother Wang Hongyu?”

For a moment, many female disciples were criticizing Victor. This reminded him of the people who had brain problems.

This made Victor extremely frustrated.

It was clearly him, Wang Hongyu, who was useless. What did it have to do with him?

Victor’s breathing became heavier. His eyes were red as he stared at the people in front of him. He let out a cold smile.

However, before Victor could say anything, Nalan Lengling lost her cool first.

“Shut up!”

Nalan Lengling took out her Flowing Smoke Sword and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

“From the start, it was impossible for us to win this group battle. Out of the eight battles that the Fire Sect disciples participated in, we won two in total. Wang Cheng even crushed Han Feng with his foundation establishment realm cultivation!

“You guys don’t even have the qualifications to participate in the battle, yet you sit here and criticize others with a clear conscience? This is simply unreasonable!”

“Senior sister, if you want me to say it, you’re still too soft-spoken.”

Victor chuckled and slowly stood up, motioning for Elder Ping to step back.

“Wang Hongyu, you’re just garbage. You made a fool of yourself, yet you insist on dragging others along?

“You keep saying that you’ve tried your best, but look at Han Feng. You’ve both faced body cultivators and both or you have lost. How long did he last? How did you last?

“And you, you bunch of trash, what right do you have to speak? The four of you haven’t won a single match, and instead, you’re talking about me here? Aren’t you guys ridiculous? Aren’t you ashamed?

“Of course, what I hate the most are you women. Even the elders didn’t say anything. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you’re worth anything?

“Look at how despicable you are. You don’t even know that you have become the blades of others. How can I be from the same sect as you idiots?”

Victor ignored everyone present and curled the corners of his lips.

“The second round of the competition will be held in three days. In these three days, I will accept any challenge from any one of you, especially the five of you trash. If you think you have the strength to defeat me, feel free to look for me.”

“Enough!”

As soon as Victor finished speaking, several elders shouted and suppressed the crowd.

“Isn’t it embarrassing enough? All of you, be quiet!”

“Wang Cheng, as a disciple of the same sect, how can you insult others like this!”

“If you are deaf, go and treat your ears. They provoked me first, why can’t I defend myself?”

“They’re just venting their dissatisfaction. Aren’t you being a little too unreasonable?”

“Too unreasonable? Your precious disciple was beaten like a dog. Why aren’t you talking about him instead of me?

“You’ve lost all your face. Are you afraid of others saying this out loud?”

Victor sneered, looked around, and left.

Seeing this scene, Nalan Lengling and Lian Hua could only catch up with Victor and leave together.

Looking at Victor’s back, Wang Hongyu’s face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water. He clenched his teeth and swore in his heart.

At the same time, Victor’s face was gloomy all the way back to the dwelling. He did not say a word, which made Lian Hua and Nalan Lengling not dare to breathe.

“Wang Cheng… Don’t be angry. Don’t lower yourself to their level,” Lian Hua said and comforted him.

“Most of the female disciples in the sect have their eyes on Wang Hongyu. Although I can’t understand it, it’s best that you don’t argue with them.”

“Or what? Will they kill me? They’re just a bunch of gossipy women. What makes me angriest isn’t this, but the attitude of the other elders. They’re outright favoring Wang Hongyu. I really don’t know what’s good about him.”

“There’s no other way. In the end, they still have to rely on Wang Hongyu to command the second round of the competition.”

“Also, after this round, you and Wang Hongyu have basically become enemies. What do you plan to do in the second round of the competition?”

“If I can, I will kill him!”

“Absolutely not! You won’t be able to live even if you kill your fellow disciples!”

“Then let him experience the feeling of becoming everyone’s laughing stock.”

“Wang Cheng, I still have to remind you that you must not be impulsive. The more impulsive you are, the more you will play right into their hands.”

“Don’t worry senior sister, I know what to do.”

Victor nodded and returned to the residence.

As expected, in these three days, not a single person challenged Victor, including the five people who participated in the group battle led by Wang Hongyu.

What was even more ridiculous was that those pursuers of Wang Hongyu actually spread rumors about Victor in the sect. Later on, Nalan Lengling caught them in the act and taught them a good lesson. Only then did they stop.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The second round of the secret realm trial was finally about to begin.

Elder Huang, Elder Bai, and the five elders led by the great elder joined hands and opened the secret realm.

This time, each faction had a total of 20 people participating in the secret realm trial. Their respective leaders were Quan Ze, Lu Peng, and Wang Hongyu. The secret realm would open for a total of seven days. Seven days later, whoever brought out the most Blood Source Ore would be the winner.

“Elder Qi, let’s begin when you’re ready.”

“Okay.”

The great elder nodded and opened the door of the secret realm to accommodate 60 people.

After a period of dizziness, Victor was already in an unfamiliar environment.

In order to be fair and just, the three forces were sent to different locations. However, from the beginning, Wang Hongyu gave Victor a show of force.

“Wang Cheng, as the leader, I order you to leave the team.”

“What did you say? Wang Hongyu, all the elders outside are watching. Are you sure?”

Victor sneered, killing intent flashing in his eyes.

“I’m sure that your foundation establishment realm cultivation will only drag us down if you stay in the team.”

“Hehe, you’re all a bunch of trash. How can others still drag you down? Forget it. Being with you will only increase my killing intent toward you.”

“However, before you leave, I have to make one thing clear. I will not give you any of the Blood Source Ore that I have obtained.”

“I am the leader. I am the one in charge of distributing the Blood Source Ore. As for you, if you secretly keep the Blood Source Ore, according to the sect rules, your cultivation will be destroyed.”

“I understand now. Are you using your official position to seek personal revenge?”

“So what if I am? What can you do to me?”

Wang Hongyu sneered and looked at Victor.

“Nothing much. I just want to advise you to be careful. Don’t lose your life in this secret realm.”

After saying that, Victor turned around and left.

“Wang Cui, Nalan Lengling, the two of you are not allowed to leave the team. Those who disobey will be disqualified.”
