Chapter 11: Yellow-mouthed Brat!
Lu Tianyu cast a provocative gaze at the challengers: "The disciples of my Lu family are no cowards."
"But if you all dare not fight me one-on-one, I will call you cowards and spineless weaklings whenever I see you from now on!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Subsequently, looks of anger appeared on their faces.
Lu Tianyu was intending to challenge everyone by himself!
This brat is far too arrogant!
Lu Zhuoyuan's expression changed immediately, and he scolded: "You think you are invincible under the heavens!"
"Everyone, attack with me! If we each throw one move, we can blast him into dust!"
Whoosh!
He was the first to jump onto the arena, and with a *bang*, he threw his Storage Bag at Lu Tianyu's feet.
The challengers were all young and hot-blooded; how could they endure such provocation from Lu Tianyu?
"Stop bragging! We could drown you with just a single spit!"
"Everyone attack together! He is a Body Refiner who excels at close-quarters combat. We won't give him a chance to get close; one move each will be enough to cripple him."
"Right! Don't hold back, everyone. Let's all attack with ten-tenths of our power and see how he defends!"
The arena was almost instantly packed with people, to the point where it could barely hold them.
Each of them brought out their preferred weapons, ready to strike, waiting only for Lu Jiuyuan to announce the start.
Lu Tianyu shook his head with a hint of regret: "It's a pity the arena is too small; I can only collect half the people's Storage Bags."
"The old rules: throw your Storage Bags on the ground first."
He turned his provocative gaze toward the Third Elder, the Fourth Elder, and the other elders: "Do you want to learn from the Second Elder and place a bet?"
The elders caught by Lu Tianyu's gaze shifted their eyes away, pretending they hadn't seen or heard anything.
They all had the same thought in their hearts: no betting!
It was one thing for Lu Tianyu to swindle the Second Elder, but he wanted to swindle them too? No way!
They felt that the Lu Tianyu from a hundred days ago had returned; he wouldn't release the hawk until he saw the rabbit.
Lu Tianyu would never do anything he wasn't sure of.
As for their juniors going up to challenge him, they couldn't control that.
Lu Tianyu sighed lightly: "How boring. You are far worse than the Second Elder; you don't even have confidence in your own juniors."
"Sigh, you're old and useless; it would be better to retire as soon as possible."
He shook his head slightly.
Once these words were out, those elders who had turned their heads looked toward Lu Tianyu.
Each of their faces was slightly angry, their eyes flashing with cold light.
What do you mean by "should retire"?
Whether we retire or not is not for you to decide; you are at most a Saint Son, what is there to be so arrogant about!
But Lu Tianyu's next words thoroughly enraged them.
The corners of Lu Tianyu's mouth curled up slightly: "It seems you have voluntarily conceded."
"Later, you will all have to sign a Blood Pact and listen to Father for the rest of your lives."
"A fragile and unconfident mindset like yours will surely leave a shadow in your hearts; perhaps you will stop here for the rest of your lives!"
He deliberately raised his voice: "We cultivators fight against the heavens and the earth; the one thing we cannot lack is that sharp spirit."
"Once you lose that sharp spirit, living is no different from being dead; you are nothing but walking corpses!"
He added another sentence: "With you leading my Donghuang Clan, we are in danger!"
Lu Tianyu had undergone Soul Dual Cultivation with the Qian Gu Immortal Emperor, and his soul was as seasoned as a hundred-thousand-year-old monster.
His speech naturally carried an old-fashioned tone, as if an elder were lecturing a junior.
How could the elders present endure this?
A mere yellow-mouthed brat, actually lecturing me with this attitude!
How outrageous!
The Thirteenth Elder was the first who couldn't sit still; he stood up abruptly: "Yellow-mouthed brat!"
"We are all your elders; do you not understand how to respect the old and cherish the young!"
"Is this how your father and mother taught you?"
The Third Elder then stood up: "Today is an arena match; please mind your words!"
"You only represent your own views, not everyone's!"
The Fourth Elder then rose to echo him: "Lu Tianyu, you have no respect for others; as Saint Son, you will ruin the young generation of the Lu family!"
The elders were all somewhat angry.
They looked ready to rush up and give Lu Tianyu a few slaps.
Only the Great Elder stood up slowly and threw his Storage Bag onto the stage: "Tianyu is right!"
"What our Donghuang Clan lacks is precisely this kind of sharp spirit!"
"We clan elders, including the young ones, lack that spirit of fighting against the heavens and the earth!"
"Ancestor Changmei is already old, and our Donghuang Clan has always relied on him for support; if he leaves, our Donghuang Clan is in danger!"
The Great Elder looked at Lu Tianyu with appreciation: "Tianyu's words are blunt but true; we young people should learn from him!"
"We are all cultivators, not mortals!"
"I'm betting. Do you dare to bet!"
"Eighty-seven challengers, and not a single one has the confidence or courage to challenge him alone; how can you talk about a sharp spirit?"
He added another sentence: "Eighty-seven of our juniors dare to go up, are we really not as good as them!"
He paused after saying this.
From beginning to end, the Great Elder had always stood on the side of Ancestor Changmei and Lu Jiuyuan.
Especially regarding Lu Tianyu, he had repeatedly urged his grandson Lu Wenbin to learn from Lu Tianyu.
Unfortunately, Lu Wenbin's personality was just like his name, refined and gentle, and very difficult to change.
"What is there not to dare!"
The Thirteenth Elder immediately threw out his Storage Bag.
Next were the Third Elder, the Fourth Elder, and then the other elders.
They had all been thoroughly provoked by Lu Tianyu and the Great Elder.
At the same time, they also believed that eighty-seven people would definitely be able to defeat Lu Tianyu.
No matter how powerful Lu Tianyu was, he was only one person.
Besides, the Body Refining Technique he practiced was not the proper path at all and could not beat a Qi Refiner.
Everyone's gaze focused back on Lu Tianyu.
A look of worry appeared on Lu Jiuyuan's face again: "Yuer, are you sure you want to take on everyone?"
Seeing Lu Tianyu nod confidently, he directly moved a sparring platform over from the side: "Lu Tianyu wants to challenge all of you."
"You all come up together, and don't forget to drop your Storage Bags."
Lu Jiuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He noticed a junior named Lu Qingyan among them, whose expression was somewhat gloomy, and he always felt something was not right.
However, after checking carefully, he could not see anything.
Afterward, he shook his head.
It was normal for young people in their growth phase to have changing moods, so he did not think much of it.
But this point was also observed by Lu Tianyu.
After Soul Dual Cultivation, his Divine Sense, which was comparable to the Emperor Realm, was much stronger than Lu Jiuyuan's.
He noticed that there was a huge amount of energy hidden inside Lu Qingyan, which could explode at any time.
He immediately became vigilant and locked his Divine Sense firmly onto this person.
As one Storage Bag after another landed, Lu Jiuyuan announced: "The challenge begins!"
Lu Zhuoyuan shouted: "Attack!"
He launched the first move, directly using the Lu family's ultimate technique, the 'Hanshan Palm'!
