833: The match ended in a draw.
"Kid, we've already fought for thousands of moves in close combat. Continuing like this is meaningless. Why don't we switch to weapons?"
After clashing once more, Ji Feng spoke up.
"Whether you use fists and feet or weapons, there will only be one victor in this battle, and that is me, Yang Lingchen." A confident light shone in Yang Lingchen's eyes.
"Hahaha...!"
Ji Feng laughed and said, "With a mere cultivation level of the Ninth Divine Layer of the Golden Immortal Realm, you dare to be so arrogant before This Young Master. You are truly the first."
"If you're not convinced, we can make a bet!" A provocative smile curled at the corners of Yang Lingchen's mouth.
"Tell me, how do you want to bet!" Ji Feng snorted with a cold laugh.
"If I win, for every day I stay in Ji Tian City, you will host me. How about it?" Yang Lingchen said.
The reason he proposed this bet was mainly to get closer to Ji Tiantian.
"And what if you lose?" Ji Feng said with interest.
"If I lose, I'll be your little brother from now on. What do you think?" Yang Lingchen said.
Anyway, Ji Feng was his future brother-in-law. Whether he won or lost, he would have to call the other man "Big Brother." There was no escaping that.
"Fine, This Young Master accepts this bet."
A faint smile appeared on Ji Feng's face. This bet was all benefit and no harm for him.
He could see that Yang Lingchen possessed extraordinary talent. If such a Genius became his subordinate, it would also be a good thing for him.
"Then you'd better be careful. I'm going all out next."
As soon as Yang Lingchen finished speaking, the sky-splitting spear instantly appeared in his hand, and a humming sound spread from the tip of the blade.
"Yang Lingchen, you might be able to trade moves with me in close combat, but once weapons are involved, you won't stand a chance."
A cold light flashed in Ji Feng's eyes as his right hand instantly swung a sword. Terrifying Sword Qi sliced through the Void Realm, carrying a rustling wind as it slashed toward Yang Lingchen.
This Sword Qi was bone-chillingly cold, and its Killing Intent soared to the heavens. Even before the Sword Qi reached him, Yang Lingchen felt a piercing chill.
"Ice-Breaking Light!"
Yang Lingchen's right hand jerked suddenly, and the sky-splitting spear let out a bloodthirsty hum. Powerful spear Qi sliced through the air, carrying a violent Aura as it charged toward Ji Feng's Sword Qi.
"Clang! Clang! Clang...!"
After several moves, the two were evenly matched.
The two of them quickly engaged in battle once more.
At this moment, streaks of exquisite Sword Qi and spear light continuously ravaged the Void Realm, causing the countless onlookers to marvel repeatedly!
To win this victory, Yang Lingchen also revealed all his trump cards. After all, Ji Feng was no ordinary Genius. If he didn't take it seriously, he would have no chance of winning this battle.
As the battle continued, the injuries on Yang Lingchen's body kept increasing. Fortunately, the recovery ability of his limbs was very fast, so he did not fall into a disadvantage.
Ji Feng, however, was different. He did not have a Heaven-Defying technique like the Undying Golden Body Art, so his injuries were noticeably heavier than Yang Lingchen's.
At this moment, no one was more worried than Ji Tiantian. One was her twin brother, and the other was the man she loved. She didn't want to see either of them get hurt.
"Brother, Yang Lingchen, stop fighting." After Ji Tiantian spoke, she leaped onto the Arena and stood between the two.
"Tiantian, get down quickly, or you might get hurt," Ji Feng shouted.
"Brother, Yang Lingchen, your strengths are about the same. It'll be hard to determine a winner if you keep fighting. Why don't we find a place to have a drink and become friends? What do you think?" Ji Tiantian said.
"Miss Ji has a point. I have no objections; it depends on Young Master Ji," Yang Lingchen said.
"Fine, let's stop here for today. Let's go to the Spring Breeze Tower for a drink! As for the match, it won't be too late to fight another day," Ji Feng said.
He didn't want to fight anymore either, because he didn't have the confidence to win if they continued. Instead of that, it was better to take this opportunity to stop; at least this way, he hadn't lost.
"Thank you for intervening, Miss Ji. If we had continued, I really might not have been able to hold on," Yang Lingchen said with a smile.
"Senior Brother, I'm coming too!" Hearing about drinks, Bujie immediately perked up and hurriedly jumped onto the Arena.
"So you're the monk Bujie!" Ji Feng said.
"Greetings, Young Master Ji. This humble monk is indeed Bujie," Bujie said with his palms pressed together.
"I've heard of you, the famous 'Flower Monk' on the prodigy ranking list," Ji Feng said.
"Young Master Ji misunderstands. This humble monk is actually just a Lay Disciple, so I'm not bound by the discipline of the Buddhist sect," Bujie quickly explained.
"Alright, let's go. It's my treat today, eat as much as you want!" Ji Feng said generously.
"Young Master Ji is so generous," Bujie said excitedly.
Then, the group walked toward the Spring Breeze Tower.
On the way, Yang Lingchen stayed very close to Ji Tiantian, and after entering the Spring Breeze Tower, they naturally sat together.
After a meal of medicinal cuisine, their relationships grew much closer. Although Ji Feng had an arrogant personality, he was actually a decent person, especially toward those he acknowledged, to whom he would be very polite.
During this time, Yang Lingchen and Ji Tiantian chatted very harmoniously, like friends who hadn't seen each other for years, leaving Ji Feng looking completely bewildered.
He didn't expect his sister to appreciate Yang Lingchen so much.
On the way back.
"Tiantian, you haven't fallen for that kid, have you?" Ji Feng asked.
"No! I just think he has good talent. There's nothing wrong with having one more friend like him!" The corners of Ji Tiantian's lips curled up slightly.
"It's better that way. There's only one year left until the marriage alliance between the Canglan Immortal Dynasty and our Ji Tian City. If Baili Jianyun finds out you're being intimate with another man, the consequences will be very serious," Ji Feng said.
"Brother, but I really don't want to marry him!" Ji Tiantian's eyes dimmed.
"I want to help you too, but this is Father's decision! I am powerless as well," Ji Feng said with a helpless look.
"No matter what, I won't marry him!" Ji Tiantian said firmly.
"Tiantian, I'm a bit curious. Why don't you like someone as Heaven-Defying a Prodigy as Baili Jianyun?" Ji Feng asked curiously.
"If I don't like him, I don't like him. Why do there have to be so many reasons?" Ji Tiantian said irritably.
"Then find a way to convince Father yourself! I can't help you anyway!" Ji Feng shook his head helplessly.
Meanwhile, Yang Lingchen had already returned to the restaurant where he was temporarily staying. He had already gained a clear understanding of the situation Ji Tiantian was facing.
Because during the medicinal meal earlier, the two of them had exchanged voice transmissions several times.
However, Ji Tiantian's point was that it would be best if their relationship wasn't exposed; otherwise, it would be very detrimental to Yang Lingchen.
