Inside the luxurious palace.
A man in a dark red robe looked at the practitioner who was walking quickly and asked hurriedly, "Uncle Min, have you checked it out?"
"I've checked it out. The person who replaced you is Yang Qi." said the man.
"Yang Qi?"
Hearing this, the dark red robed man frowned and said in a deep voice, "Isn't he a member of my Phoenix Clan?"
The Feng clan generally uses Feng as their surname. Although there are some exceptions, they are not common, especially the surname Yang, which has never been heard of in the Feng clan.
"He is not a member of the Phoenix Clan, but a bloodline practitioner, and a bloodline practitioner from the Endless Universe." The visitor said.
Bloodline practitioner
The dark red robe man's face darkened, and then he frowned and asked, "What is the origin of this Yang Qi? Why have I never heard of him before?"
The man in the dark red robe didn't know much about the bloodline practitioners in the Endless Universe, but it was beyond his expectation that the other party could fight on behalf of the Phoenix Clan. After all, compared with the bloodline practitioners in the Endless Universe, the bloodline practitioners in the alien universe had a closer relationship with the Phoenix Clan, and could even be directly regarded as vassals of the Phoenix Clan. Even if bloodline practitioners were sent to fight, they should be bloodline practitioners in the alien universe.
"It is said that this man is a disciple of the Great Emperor Wu Shi, a great-grandson of the Holy Lord Tai Xu, and has a close relationship with the Black Phoenix Envoy." The visitor immediately told the information he knew.
"The origin is not simple!"
After hearing what the visitor said, the man in the dark red robe raised his eyebrows, and then laughed coldly, "Even if he has some background and wants to take away my place, he doesn't take me seriously at all."
Yang Qi had not been in the alien universe for long, but the competition between the Dragon and Phoenix factions had a long history. The Phoenix clan had lost four times in a row, and had already been training practitioners for this competition. The man in the dark red robe in front of him was one of the original contestants, but the appearance of Yang Qi made him lose this spot.
That's right, the Phoenix Clan has lost four times in a row, and there is a great possibility that they will lose this time, but being able to represent the Phoenix Clan in battle is itself a kind of affirmation for the practitioners. If they perform better in the competition, even if the Phoenix Clan loses the competition in the end, the practitioners with outstanding performance will be trained by the Phoenix Clan's top leaders.
Therefore, representing the Phoenix Clan in the battle this time is definitely not just about the reputation of the Phoenix Clan. It is also an opportunity for the participating practitioners. Now that the chance to participate has been taken away by Yang Qi, one can imagine the anger in the heart of the man in the dark red robe.
The man's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said hurriedly, "Your Highness, this competition concerns the reputation of the entire Phoenix Clan. You must not act rashly and secretly deal with Yang Qi. No one will be able to save you when the time comes."
This is not the endless universe, but an alien universe controlled by the Ancestral Phoenix. Nothing can be hidden from the Ancestral Phoenix. If the man in the dark red robe secretly attacks Yang Qi and affects the Phoenix clan's competition this time, even if he has awakened the Ancestral Phoenix bloodline, the Phoenix clan's top leaders will not let it go.
"Uncle Min, rest assured. I know what I am doing." The man in the dark red robe smiled calmly and continued, "I have no intention of dealing with Yang Qi secretly. I want to challenge him directly and fight him openly. Then the higher-ups in the clan will know who is more suitable to represent the Phoenix clan in the battle."
Phew~
Hearing this, the visitor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then he seemed to remember something and quickly looked at the man in front of him and said, "I heard that Yang Qi once defeated Feng Hongbo. Your Highness, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to defeat him."
"Feng Hongbo?"
The man in the dark red robe raised his eyebrows. He was naturally aware of Feng Hongbo's strength. Even if he tried his best, he couldn't say that he could defeat the opponent. It was somewhat beyond his expectation that Yang Qi could defeat Feng Hongbo.
The man in the dark red robe focused his eyes and said in a deep voice, "It doesn't matter. I have made some gains recently. I am confident that I can fight against Feng Hongbo. I will not be willing if I don't fight."
In order to be able to participate in this competition, the man in the dark red robe paid a lot and suffered a lot. What was originally a sure thing was lost because of Yang Qi's interference, and he lost the opportunity to compete. If he were in her place, he would also be unwilling to accept it.
"I understand. I will arrange it as soon as possible." The visitor nodded slightly and then left the hall.
After the visitor left, the man in the dark red robe fixed his eyes and uttered two words coldly, "Yang Qi!"
Yang Qi didn't know that he had been targeted because of the competition quota. At this time, he was improving his cultivation in the time acceleration formation. Under the time acceleration, he couldn't directly realize the truth, but he could still improve his cultivation and deduce martial arts.
Since leaving the God of War Continent, Yang Qi has not deliberately tried to improve his cultivation. After all, he spends most of his time on the road and does not have much time to improve his cultivation. Therefore, he spends most of his time comprehending the Tao and trying to integrate his own Tao into the virtual world.
It was precisely because of this that Yang Qi was able to break through to the middle stage of the two-star martial emperor so easily, because his realm was not low, and the breakthrough was a natural thing. However, in a short period of time, raising his own cultivation to the late stage of the two-star martial emperor, and successively raising two small realms, even if it would not cause the realm to be unstable for Yang Qi, it might also cause the cultivation to be raised too fast and unable to adapt quickly.
Therefore, Yang Qi did not plan to directly improve his cultivation to the late stage of the two-star martial emperor, but stopped when his cultivation was close to the late stage of the two-star martial emperor. He planned to improve his realm of Tao and sharpen himself before the competition began, so that he could quickly adapt to the changes in his cultivation after the breakthrough.
Yang Qi removed the time acceleration formation and muttered to himself, "While there is still some time left, I will travel around the nearby star fields and gain enlightenment while traveling. When the competition is approaching, I will break through to the late stage of the two-star martial emperor."
It's not that he hadn't thought about raising his cultivation to the peak of the two-star martial emperor, but this idea was only fleeting. Even if he raised his cultivation to the peak of the two-star martial emperor in a short period of time, his realm might become unstable. If his realm became unstable, it would not only affect his own strength, but also affect future practitioners. Therefore, Yang Qi gave up this plan.
He only raised his cultivation to the late two-star Martial Emperor level. He was confident that he could exert his strength to the utmost. Even when facing a cultivator in the middle three-star Martial Emperor level, he was not afraid at all.
After finishing his retreat, Yang Qi was about to leave the inn and venture out into the nearby star field, but he suddenly received a message from the inn saying that a cultivator was waiting for him.
Yang Qi frowned and muttered to himself, "Could it be another pursuer of Feng Yan?"
Although Feng Hongbo and the other two are the most famous among Feng Yan's suitors, it does not mean that Feng Yan does not have other suitors. Not only that, but there are also quite a few of them. (To be continued)
