In the banquet, Grandmaster Zhang and Feng Tianlei naturally became the focus of the entire venue. Countless people raised their glasses to toast them, with the big shots showing humble attitudes.
As for Xia Xinxin, Chu Yunhao, Yang Shaotian and other young masters and ladies from wealthy families, they did not even qualify to go toast.
After all, it was already lucky for those two to even see them. How could they qualify to go up and speak with them?
A group of young people gathered together to discuss.
“You guys say, who exactly has such great ability this time to alarm a great grandmaster like Feng Tianlei to take action personally?” Chu Yunlong asked with great curiosity.
“The Baji Sect side did not say, and we are not from the martial world so we do not know. But one thing is certain, the other party must be a grandmaster at least, right?” Another wealthy young master spoke.
“Indeed, otherwise how could he alarm a legendary figure like Feng Tianlei?” Chu Yunhao added.
“I say Jinyu, does your Yang family not have an uncle inside the Baji Sect? Can you help ask around?” A wealthy young master spoke next.
Yang Jinyu looked at everyone and really went to inquire.
But he came back very quickly.
“How was it? Jinyu, who exactly is it?” Everyone looked at Yang Jinyu.
He did not find out the full name, only one piece of information. The other party has the surname Luo!” As soon as Yang Jinyu said this.
Yang Shaotian, Chu Yunhao and the others suddenly looked wrong.
Xia Xinxin’s expression also changed at once.
Because the surname Luo was one that they did not like much.
“It cannot be?”
“Impossible!” Chu Yunhao and Yang Shaotian and the others spoke sharply.
Joking, Luo Chen?
Is that possible?
Does he deserve to alarm a big shot like Feng Tianlei?
There was simply no possibility at all.
Xia Xinxin also gave a self mocking smile. She had just thought of Luo Chen in her mind for a moment.
But she also knew that it was simply impossible.
Luo Chen was so young, and even if he had slapped Xu Ao to death with one palm.
It should still be impossible for it to be Luo Chen.
If the Baji Sect really wanted to deal with Luo Chen, any one from the older generation could do it. There was no need to make such a big fuss.
Not long after the banquet started, the young masters from the major wealthy families were introduced by the family heads to stand before Grandmaster Zhang.
Grandmaster Zhang sat on a grandmaster chair. The wealthy young masters had now put away their usual arrogant attitudes and stood there very obediently.
Xia Xinxin also found an opportunity to stand over.
“Kneel down, young ones. Big brother Zhang will check your fortunes for you. If you have the fortune to be accepted as his disciple, it will be enough to bring glory to your family for this lifetime.” Feng Tianlei spoke from the side.
Chu Yunhao and the other wealthy young masters felt their hearts beat wildly.
Grandmaster Zhang’s earlier move of condensing water into ice to form a bridge had made them extremely envious and admiring.
At this moment these wealthy young masters and ladies almost did not hesitate and all knelt down.
Xia Xinxin naturally knelt down as well.
This was not shameful, because even some family heads had knelt.
Many people knelt on the ground, because in their hearts Grandmaster Zhang was a god.
In the end Chu Yunhao and a few others were really accepted by Grandmaster Zhang as nominal disciples.
The happiest was still Xia Xinxin. She was also lucky enough to be accepted as a nominal disciple.
One must know that Grandmaster Zhang held the power to decide the rise and fall of wealthy families.
Since she had been accepted as a nominal disciple, the Xia family would probably truly rise again in the future, and might even surpass its previous glory.
“Master, this disciple has an enemy who has repeatedly humiliated you, Master.” Chu Yunhao spoke at this time.
“Moreover Master, this person also has some grudges with us.” Yang Jinyu spoke.
Clearly they had now found a backer and wanted to deal with Luo Chen.
“Small matter. When the decisive battle comes in a few days, call him out. My disciple under Zhang Wudi will naturally not let you suffer any grievance.”
“By the way, Master he is called”
“No need to tell me his name. I have no interest in knowing. You only need to know that your master can crush him with one finger and that is enough.” Grandmaster Zhang snorted coldly.
Chu Yunhao and the others looked at each other, with a trace of delight in their eyes.
Just wait, Luo Chen. Your time of death is coming soon.
With Grandmaster Zhang taking action, even if you are a heavenly god descending, you will not escape death.
“We thank Master.” The few people kowtowed to Grandmaster Zhang a few more times.
Xia Xinxin shook her head and sighed.
Luo Chen, I warned you long ago not to speak arrogantly about Grandmaster Zhang and not to offend these wealthy young masters easily.
You just would not listen. This calamity, you probably cannot avoid it.
This evening banquet lasted until midnight.
After returning that night Xia Xinxin was so happy that she could hardly sleep.
When Xia Qiuyan heard the news, she also laughed loudly at once.
“Xinxin, your dad always tells you to go apologise to that kid with the surname Luo. Humph, compared with Grandmaster Zhang, even if that one with the surname Luo has some ability, what of it?” Xia Qiuyan said with a cold smile.
“Alas, I also do not know what my dad is thinking.” Xia Xinxin sighed.
Clearly in East Sea it is people like Grandmaster Zhang who have the final say. Why should she go curry favour with Luo Chen?
Her aunt was right. No matter how powerful Luo Chen was, what of it?
Even if he was the chief instructor of the Jingnan Military Academy, what of it?
Could he compare with Grandmaster Zhang?
Xia Xinxin was very glad that her judgement had not been wrong.
“If I see the one with the surname Luo next time, I want to see if he can still be that arrogant.”
“Now your status is completely different. That is the disciple of Grandmaster Zhang.”
In East Sea, the identity of Grandmaster Zhang’s disciple was a symbol of status and glory.
“Compared with this identity, what is that one with the surname Luo worth?”
Luo Chen also slowly opened his eyes that night. The electric arcs on his body crackled and disappeared. Finally he opened his eyes fully, with jumping flames flashing in his pupils.
Awakening second layer.
Luo Chen had finally broken through.
The decisive battle with Feng Tianlei was in three days.
Luo Chen did not take it to heart.
Instead in these two days he accompanied his father to tour around.
Only on the day of the decisive battle did Luo Chen return to East Sea.
The location of the decisive battle was set at the edge of a football field outside the suburbs.
Not only that, the Taiji grandmaster Chen Bojiao and the head of the Xingyi Sect Lu Dahu had also come. Even some experts from the East China region had arrived.
After all this was equivalent to a modern martial arts gathering.
Tens of thousands of people had come to watch this decisive battle.
Of course, the outer area could be entered freely, but to enter the football field one had to hand over all electronic devices.
After all today someone was going to be killed, so naturally they would not let people take videos or photos to leave any evidence.
The East Sea wealthy families had even used their connections to make arrangements in advance. Today this place was presented to the outside as just a football match.
Everyone had come to see Feng Tianlei and Grandmaster Zhang. As for the opponent in the decisive battle, people were not too concerned.
The family heads and young masters from the major wealthy families had naturally also come here.
This directly formed a small market.
When Luo Chen drove and arrived here, the place was already packed with people.
Just as Luo Chen got out of the car, he was spotted by Xia Xinxin.
Immediately Xia Xinxin walked quickly towards Luo Chen. “Luo Chen, how do you still dare to come?”
