Chapter 645: Chapter 646: Planting the Heart Demon

"Chu Fengmian, the people of the Sikong family are not easy to deal with. They are very closely related to the Canglan Family and the Feng Family. By suppressing Sikong Jingsheng today, you’re essentially making enemies with them as well."

Elder Bing Li hesitated before speaking.

"Now, if you let them go, you can still save some face."

"Save face?"

Chu Fengmian glanced at Sikong Jingsheng and Sikong Hong.

Sikong Jingsheng and Sikong Hong were kneeling on the ground, still furiously yelling and trying to break free from Chu Fengmian’s restrictions with the power within their bodies.

Their gazes toward Chu Fengmian were filled with hatred, as if they already wanted to tear Chu Fengmian into pieces.

"Now, even if I let them go, I won’t get any good end. Let them kneel here. As for the Canglan Family and the Feng Family, they are just Martial Arts families. If they dare to cause trouble, they will meet the same fate."

Chu Fengmian said with a cold laugh.

Previously, in the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cave, Chu Fengmian had clashed with these two great families. If they dared to cause trouble, Chu Fengmian would make sure they died.

Sikong Jingsheng and Sikong Hong, now out of respect for Elder Bing Li, Chu Fengmian decided not to kill them. However, their severe crimes were inevitable and they couldn’t escape punishment—they were to kneel here for seven days and nights.

For people like Sikong Jingsheng and Sikong Hong, who hailed from a Martial Arts family, this kneeling was a great humiliation. They came from highly esteemed backgrounds and were incredibly arrogant.

Now, Chu Fengmian had crushed their pride, which meant that he had planted a Heart Demon in their hearts. Unless they broke through their own Heart Demons, they would be trapped and unable to advance further in strength for the rest of their lives.

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s arrogant words, Elder Bing Li initially wanted to say something.

However, when she saw Sikong Jingsheng and Sikong Hong kneeling on the ground, she couldn’t say a word.

Chu Fengmian’s words weren’t arrogant; he truly had the capability to enforce them.

Compared to the Sikong Family, the Canglan and Feng Families had similar strength. Now that the old ancestor of the Sikong Family had been defeated and suppressed by Chu Fengmian, it was likely that if the Canglan and Feng Families took action against Chu Fengmian, they would end up in the same state.

Although Elder Bing Li had some connections with Sikong Jingsheng, it was difficult for her to say anything now.

Chu Fengmian, by sparing their lives now, was actually showing some consideration for Elder Bing Li. Otherwise, Chu Fengmian could have easily killed them.

With Chu Fengmian’s temperament, killing them wasn’t out of the question.

"Let these two useless ones kneel here and reflect."

Chu Fengmian spoke calmly, then abruptly switched the topic to Elder Bing Li.

"Elder Bing Li, do you know anything about the Gui Xutian Tournament?"

Chu Fengmian suddenly asked.

He had heard a bit about it from Saint Xuanbei and had left because Saint Xuanbei was going to help Chu Fengmian seize some opportunities at the academy, so they didn’t talk much more.

Chu Fengmian valued the tournament greatly, as he needed to seek new fortuitous adventures for a breakthrough.

Gui Xutian was the ruin of an ancient sect, filled with countless fortuitous adventures. Chu Fengmian needed to enter it to seek adventures and break through the limits of Divine Power, overcoming the Life and Death Tribulation and stepping into the Realm of Life and Death.

Once Chu Fengmian stepped into the Realm of Life and Death, families like the Sikong, Canglan, and Feng families could easily be crushed by him.

In the North Realm, there were no lack of powerhouses. With Sikong Hong’s strength, he was only ranked thirty-fifth in the North Realm’s Hundred Indomitable List. The front ranks of this list were undoubtedly formidable.

Chu Fengmian still intended to understand more about it.

"Gui Xutian? The Martial Tournament? The tournament battling for the qualification to enter Gui Xutian is indeed about to be convened. It seems you are also planning to participate."

Elder Bing Li spoke calmly.

It wasn’t surprising to her that Chu Fengmian wanted to participate; after all, anyone with sufficient strength would want to enter Gui Xutian to seek fortuitous adventures.

With Chu Fengmian’s current strength, he certainly had the qualifications to compete in the tournament. It was only natural for him to want to participate.

"This time’s Martial Tournament will still be held in Martial King City. However, only the top ten fighters in the tournament will qualify to enter Gui Xutian."

Elder Bing Li explained.

"The tournament is open to disciples from major powers within the North Realm and is not limited to Divine Power realm martial artists. Many Life and Death realm martial artists can also participate."

"Like some of the Core Disciples of our Beimang Academy, although they have reached the Life and Death realm, but haven’t been promoted to deputy dean, they can all participate in this Martial Tournament. It’s not easy to secure top ten in this tournament."

Elder Bing Li glanced at Chu Fengmian and spoke.

"Among the major forces in the North Realm, there are no lack of geniuses, nearly all disciples on the North Realm’s Hundred Indomitable List will participate."

"With your current strength, entering the top ten is not too difficult, but it will be more challenging to fight for the top three. As for taking the first place, it’s probably not possible with your current strength."

Huh?

This comment from Elder Bing Li was somewhat surprising to Chu Fengmian.

With his current strength, he could only enter the top ten and fighting for the top three was tough?

Just now, when Chu Fengmian defeated Sikong Jingsheng, the strength he displayed was almost reaching the threshold of the Life and Death Platform.

Though not as transcendent as the Realm of Mortal Severance, it was enough to defeat and suppress peak Life and Death realm Sikong Jingsheng.

Chu Fengmian was nearly at the stage of transcending life and death.

Chu Fengmian initially thought that with his strength, taking the first place in the Martial Tournament should be no issue.

Could it be that there were those on the North Realm’s Hundred Indomitable List who could contend with him?

"No need to be surprised, many on the North Realm’s Hundred Indomitable List have been cultivating for a hundred years and have encountered countless fortuitous adventures. You’ve just arrived at Beimang Academy and already possess such strength, surpassing them in the future is indeed not a problem."

Elder Bing Li mentioned, her expression suddenly changing subtly before she spoke again.

"Regarding the Martial Tournament, I’ve already informed Yue Li. The tournament will be held in Martial King City in seven days. You can discuss it on the way, as I have some matters to attend to and need to leave now."

With that, Elder Bing Li immediately turned into a streak of light and hurriedly left.
