Chapter 21: High and Low Stand Out Seeking Recommendation

  Today's Dou Fei Yun will be etched in the hearts of all people in Baishi Town, whether it is hatred, disgust, or shock and incredulity.

  From the moment he appeared at the tribal council meeting, he had already become the focus of everyone's attention.

  First, he represented the Liu family in the clan comparison, leaving everyone puzzled and surprised. Next, he decisively taught a lesson to Liu Heng, who spoke ill words, making people look at his strength and courage with new eyes.

  He then stepped onto the stage and defeated Chin Gentsai and Hakuten in a row with just one move.

  By now, he had overturned his previous image in everyone's heart, letting people know that he was no longer the weak and small boy who could be bullied by anyone.

  He made a move that severely injured the White Dragon's seven-layered physical strength, and at that time his powerful strength had deeply imprinted itself in people's minds.

  At this time, almost no one thought about why he would make such great progress in a short period of time.

  Everyone secretly speculated in their hearts, this Du Feiyun who rose like a demon, and Qin Shouzheng, the genius youth of Baishi Town who had been famous for a long time, which one was better than the other?

  Although other young men on the stage were taking turns competing, one of the Bai family's youngsters also cleanly defeated his opponent, but this was not enough to stir up the enthusiasm of the onlookers, what they most looked forward to was the match between Qin Shouzheng and Du Feiyun!

  Of course, although Du Feiyun's performance today was dazzling and stirred up a storm in everyone's heart, most people still didn't think highly of him and were more inclined towards the mysterious Qin Shouzheng.

  Du Feiyun's strength boundary has been proven by Bai Long to be at the 8th layer of the Refining Body stage.

  And Qin Shouzheng, who had already reached the seventh layer of the Refining Body stage at the age of thirteen, what kind of realm is his current strength in?

  Expectation, unparalleled expectation!

  Finally, the second round of competition ended, and three young men including Du Feiyun won, plus Qin Shouzheng who was exempt from the round, making a total of four young men.

  Four people took the stage amidst everyone's anticipation and drew lots, after which they would be divided into two groups for a competition.

  The two winners will compete for the first and second places, while the two losers will compete again to determine the third place. The top three winners will receive awards in this competition.

  The youngest, Du Feiyun, drew the first lot. When he saw the name on the bamboo slip, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He then looked up and gazed at Qin Shouzheng beside him, who was silent and taciturn, and his fighting spirit gradually rose.

  There is no doubt that in this match, he will be competing against the talented young Qin Shouzheng!

  When Liu Zhuang announced the result of the draw, thousands of people around the arena cheered and applauded thunderously.

  They were excited and looking forward to it, finally able to see the most wonderful match in ten years. They cheered loudly for the two young men.

  Of course, Qin Shouzheng's voice is still the highest, after all, the vast majority of people are optimistic about him.

  The remaining small number of civilians, changing their previous attitude of contempt and indifference, also began to cheer for Du Feiyun.

  The contest is about to begin, and the applause around the arena is thunderous. The heads of the three major families and their clansmen are also eagerly awaiting, closely watching.

  The rest of the people left the arena, leaving only Du Feiyun and Qin Shou standing on the arena, facing each other.

  Du Feiyun stood with his hands hanging down, his expression calm and composed, but in his heart, his fighting spirit was rising.

  As for Qin Shouzheng, he still had his hands clasped behind his back, with a calm and collected expression. After glancing at Du Feiyun, he opened his mouth in a flat tone and said: "I must get the first place, even if you have the strength of the eighth layer of the Refining Body stage, you are not my opponent!"

  Just as a gentle breeze passed by, the black sleeves of Qin Shouzhis long and slender body fluttered, his untamed long hair swayed gently behind his head, and his extremely confident aura burst forth around him.

  His words also floated with the gentle breeze into the ears of everyone present.

  Has he already reached the ninth level of Body Refining Realm?

  At that moment, all the onlookers were in an uproar, and even Liu Xiangtian and Bai Yusheng changed color with rage, staring at Qin Shouzheng on stage in shock.

  Refining his body to the ninth level, he was only one step away from entering the Refining Qi stage, and would become one of the top strongmen in Baishi Town, leaving everyone in awe.

  What's more important is that Qin Shouzheng was just a 16-year-old boy at that time, and his future was boundless!

  At the same time that people were shocked by Qin Zheng's powerful strength, they couldn't help but secretly worry: how could Du Feiyun, who had risen like a demon and only had an eighth-level Refining Body realm, possibly be a match for Qin Zheng?

  Some people were disappointed and worried about it, while others were gloating over its misfortune.

  It was as if he hadn't seen the expressions of the crowd, nor did he care about Qin Shouzheng's words that were filled with an air of pressure. Du Feiyun calmly lifted his head, his eyes burning intensely as he stared at Qin Shouzheng, and said with equal confidence and determination: "I also must get first place, so you're probably going to be disappointed."

  A loud buzz, and the crowd suddenly boiled like a pot of water, filled with discussions and debates.

  People never thought that when Du Fei Yun learned that his opponent had a cultivation base of nine layers, not only did he not feel intimidated and retreat, but instead his fighting spirit was boiling over, with his spear pointing directly at the enemy.

  If it wasn't for his arrogance and conceit, then he must have had an ace up his sleeve. For a moment, everyone was discussing and speculating, could it be that Du Feiyun still had hidden strength?

  No one could answer, and there was no time for the crowd to ponder or speculate. The next moment, the two young men on the stage suddenly flashed out of sight.

  Qin Shouzheng stepped on the linked rings, his arms stretched out like a white crane spreading its wings. The Qin family's Pine Crane Fist was instantly unleashed, his right hand's five fingers closed together like a crane's beak, shimmering with a faint blue light, pointing at Du Feiyun's throat from afar.

  In that instant, Qin Shouzheng was as swift as a whirlwind, his body like a divine crane, with a faint flash of blue light between his arms, his aura like a rainbow, sharp and unmatched.

  Du Feiyun also stepped out with his left foot in an instant, his legs bringing up two residual shadows, drawing a fleeting trajectory, and suddenly appearing several feet away.

  His arms were like a drawn bow, his palms carried a whistling palm wind, flashing with crimson light, and brought a fierce momentum to slap Qin Shouzheng's chest.

  Head-on collision!

  Refining the body to the ninth layer, only one step away from entering the realm of refining Qi, Qin Shouzheng's whole body had a radiant glow, obviously already touching the bottleneck of external release of vigor.

  Perhaps he was just one step away from success, and with a little more insight, he could have entered the Refining Qi stage and truly achieved externalization of his yuan force.

  At this moment, seeing the scene on the stage, the crowd around was in an uproar again. Everyone was incredulous and exclaimed, their eyes all fell on Du Feiyun's body.

  Even the three masters of the house who harbored hatred towards him stood up abruptly, their faces solemn and moved.

  No wonder Du Feiyun was not afraid of Qin Shouzheng at all, no wonder he remained calm when he knew Qin Shouzheng's true strength, and no wonder he dared to confront Qin Shouzheng head-on.

  Because he also stepped into the 9th layer of the Refining Body stage, he also touched the edge of Yuan Force external release!

  Qin Shouzheng was a prodigy in Baishi Town since childhood, and his innate talent was exceptional. At the age of 16, he reached the ninth level of Body Refining Realm, which was astonishing but not too shocking.

  But Du Fei Yun had always been an ordinary young man, with a cultivation level of only the fourth layer of the Refining Body stage just a few months ago. Now, he had actually advanced to the ninth layer of the Refining Body stage.

  In just a few months, he has consecutively transcended five levels and directly reached the 9th level of Body Refining. What kind of monstrous talent is this? What kind of heaven-defying feat is this? It's simply unprecedented in history!

  At this moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten to breathe, staring at Du Feiyun on the stage with wide eyes as if they were looking at a monster.

  They can't believe this reality, after all it's too unbelievable.

  But the fact is before their eyes, and they cannot help but believe it.

  Many people have doubts in their minds. Is this young man not mediocre, but a genius? Has he been hiding his strength all along?

  But this seems unreasonable too.

  Unsolved, many doubts make Du Feiyun mysterious and unpredictable, making it impossible for people to see through him.

  A crisp and clear crashing sound rang out, two figures carrying strong winds collided with each other, their fists and palms instantly making contact.

  Du Feiyun and Qin Shouzheng's yuan force in their bodies suddenly burst out, instantly triggering a fierce energy, a visible transparent energy like ripples splashing open.

  At this moment, Qin Shouzheng's face changed drastically. Although he had punched Du Feiyun's palms with both fists, he felt as if he was hitting a cotton ball, light and airy, without any force to rely on.

  Moreover, Dufei Yun's palms actually transmitted a strange attractive force, pulling him forward to lean over.

  Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stabilized his body by sinking his energy into his lower abdomen, otherwise he would have rushed out and fallen to the ground.

  Seeing Du Fei Yun actually stepped into the ninth layer of the Refining Body realm, his heart was shocked at the same time, and his fighting spirit burst out, his whole body's aura surging again. The yuan force in his body surged out wildly, his two fists bursting out with cyan light once more, his waist twisting as he swept sideways.

  However, when he turned his head around, he found that Du Feiyun had somehow flashed behind him and was raising his right palm to heavily slap his back.

  Weird, too weird!

  Just a moment ago, the two men were face to face in a fierce confrontation. But at this instant, Du Feiyun inexplicably appeared behind him, and Qin Shouzheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, his mind tightening instantly.

  The onlookers could not make out what was happening either, only seeing the black figure flashing in the arena, with powerful energy emanating from it.

  Only three household owners had sharp eyesight, seeing clearly that Du Feiyun's feet were treading on a floating and agile step, his palms and Qin Shouzheng's fists touched and parted, bypassing him to come behind him.

  Although Qin Shouzheng was shocked and quickly dodged to the side, his speed was still a fraction slower, and he was instantly hit squarely on the back.

  A loud thud echoed throughout the scene, Qin Shouzheng's body stumbled and fell to the ground, rolling out several feet before coming to a stop.

  Having reached the late stage of Body Tempering, his tendons, bones, and meridians had long been tempered by yuan energy to become extremely tough, with reactions that were extremely agile, and his strength was terrifying. Du Fei Yun's palms, which he slapped out, contained a power of at least a thousand kilograms, and even if they landed on a stone tablet, it would be enough to split the tablet and shatter the stone.

  If it weren't for Qin Shouzheng dodging in time and protecting himself with his yuan force, he would probably have been slapped to death on the spot.

  Although he was spared, he was still severely shaken internally and spat out fresh blood, clearly having suffered internal injuries.

  With just one move, Qin Shouzheng was injured, while Du Feiyun remained unscathed, the outcome was clear.

  At this scene, the onlookers were all shocked and stunned, standing frozen in place with faces full of shock, unable to come back to their senses for a long time. Even the three family heads were also filled with astonishment.

  Today, Du Fei Yun brought them a series of shocks, making their spirits gradually numb, and the eyes looking at Du Fei Yun also changed quietly, changing again and again.
