Just as Ye Li was speaking, a group of people came from a distance.
A young man with greasy hair and powdered face, who looked about the same age as Sun Yuzhang, but his eyes were full of greasy and powdery look.
Next to this man stood an old man with a pointed chin and a monkey-like face, looking a little arrogant.
In addition, there were two old men who were talking nearby. They looked very intimate and had smiles on their faces while talking.
Behind the two old men followed a young woman in her twenties. Although the woman's appearance could not be described as stunningly beautiful, she was gentle and charming, and her demeanor had the unique temperament of a lady from a noble family.
"Xiaomei!"
Sun Yuzhang, who was beside Ye Li, couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise after seeing the woman.
There was a hint of worry on the woman's brow, but after hearing Sun Yuzhang's voice, her eyes suddenly lit up, and then she turned her head to look at Sun Yuzhang.
"Brother Yuzhang!!!"
Tong Xiaomei exclaimed, with indescribable joy in her tone.
Hearing Tong Xiaomei's call, the greasy-haired young man showed an extremely unhappy look on his face.
"You're the one who called me Xiaomei. Xiaomei and I are already engaged. She's my fiancée. You'd better respect her!!!"
The young man with slicked-back hair and powdered face was naturally Dong Sanjin. He looked at Sun Yuzhang and spoke in a warning tone.
Sun Yuzhang glanced at him coldly and said, "Bullshit, Xiaomei has no feelings for you at all, she will not marry you.
Besides, you and I had a bet, and whoever wins can marry Xiaomei.
Are you going to sit back on the shit you pulled out and eat all the words you said!
Today, the three families gathered here and took great pains to plan this duel, but it all became a child's play for you! ? "
When Ye Li heard Sun Yuzhang's words, he couldn't help but applaud in his heart.
This guy was really smart and his words were flawless. He not only scolded the other party, but also put the other party on the spot in order to save the three families' reputation.
If the other party refuted him, it would be tantamount to admitting that this duel was just a child's play, and the duel that the three families spent time preparing for was just a formality.
For aristocratic families, face is a very important thing, not just a sentence.
No matter how arrogant Dong Sanjin was, he would not dare to admit this in front of the other two families.
Even if the Tong family had indeed promised him a marriage proposal in private, he couldn't say it out loud now.
After holding it in for a long time, Dong Sanjin opened his mouth. His face turned pale and blue, and he was obviously very angry.
"Humph, Sun Yuzhang, you are good at talking, but when you lose this duel, I'll see how arrogant you can get.
You better remember this, when you lose to me, I am Xiaomei’s fiancé, I will taste Xiaomei’s cherry lips in front of you to see if they are as good as yours!!!
Hahahahaha…”
Dong Sanjin's words made the two old men next to him frown.
This guy has always been frivolous, and it is really unpleasant to hear him say such things in such an occasion.
After Dong Sanjin finished speaking, he seemed to feel that something was wrong. His smile became a little awkward. After looking at the two old men beside him, he stopped talking.
Tong Xiaomei glanced at Dong Sanjin with a face full of shame and anger, biting her teeth and said, "If you want me to marry a shameless lunatic like you, I would rather die on Tianjing Peak!!!"
Sun Yuzhang was also furious at this time, and opened his mouth to curse Dong Sanjin again.
Ye Li patted his shoulder gently and said, "It's no use talking nonsense. I'll help you win later."
Sun Yuzhang was stunned when he heard Ye Li's words, and then he suddenly realized that it was really useless for him to talk here. The only way to solve the problem was to win this duel.
Hearing Ye Li's words, Dong Sanjin turned his gaze to Ye Li.
After looking Ye Li up and down, he sneered with disdain and said, "This is the reinforcement you invited. How can he defeat Master Zhu? Is it by bragging?"
The arrogant old man next to him was obviously the top-level weaponsmith invited by Dong Sanjin.
The man called Master Zhu also had a look of disdain on his face. He looked at Ye Li and said, "Boy, I, Zhu Qi, am still pouring tea and serving water to my master at your age. How much can you learn? I advise you to admit defeat early so that you can be known as a respectful elder. Otherwise, you will lose miserably and it will be embarrassing."
Upon hearing this, Ye Li immediately retorted bluntly: "At my age, you are only able to serve tea and pour water. What else can it prove except that you are useless
Besides, you are a heavenly-level weaponsmith, yet you dare to call yourself a master? I don’t even know who is the one bragging like that
I would like to advise you that if you are sensible, you should admit defeat quickly. In the end, you can leave a reputation as a kind person who does not compete with the younger generations.
If you lose in the duel, I wonder where you can put your face! ? "
Hearing Ye Li's words, Zhu Qi was so angry that he trembled all over.
Most weaponsmiths would greet him politely when they saw him. After all, a heavenly-level weaponsmith was already considered a high-level weaponsmith.
Now a young man comes and mocks him in person. How can he endure it
“Good, very good!!!!
Boy, after you win this competition, I will make sure you can’t survive in the weapon casting industry!!!"
Zhu Qi was so angry that his voice was trembling.
Ye Li smiled disdainfully upon hearing this, and said, "Your words are even bigger than what you just said!!!"
Ye Li's mouth couldn't be said to be vicious, but he was quite capable of making people angry. Sun Yuzhang, who was listening nearby, couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, young man, stop talking. Since we are here to compete in weapon casting today, then show your skills in weapon casting.
People who talk too much are not welcome anywhere!!!"
One of the two old men opposite spoke up, and this man was Tong Xiaomei's grandfather Tong Baizhi.
Hearing his words, Ye Li said, "That's what I wish for. Let's start the competition quickly to avoid wasting time here."
Ye Li naturally didn't want to say any more nonsense here. He just wanted to defeat the opponent as soon as possible and then leave with the Feixian Fruit.
After hearing Ye Li's words, no one was in the mood to continue talking, and everyone walked towards the casting furnace not far away.
In the middle of the two sheds, there was a large shelf on which various casting materials were placed. Ye Li was very familiar with these casting materials and could recognize them all at a glance.
These materials are all top-grade materials, covering various properties, and there is nothing worth elaborating on.
Ye Li and Zhu Qi stood in front of the two sheds respectively, while Dong Sanjin and Sun Yuzhang also stood outside the two sheds.
Sun Yuzhang stood with Ye Li, and Dong Sanjin naturally stood in front of Zhu Qi.
The three families around gathered to the side, most of them were watching the fun, some were looking at Ye Li with a joking look, it was obvious that they did not think highly of Ye Li, they just wanted to see the joke. (To be continued)
