On the central battle platform, Bai Zhenghao's faced Zhao Hongwen's slightly provocative words, his face calmed down. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."

Zhao Hongwen showed a little surprise. Bai Zhenghao in front of him seemed to be two people compared to before. Bai Zhenghao, who used to rely on the special identity of the Seventh Elder's grandson, was arrogant among the descendants of the family. He could take action if he had a disagreement. The showdown between the two sides two years ago was caused by a verbal argument. He just said that he deliberately talked about the showdown two years ago, just to arouse the other's emotions. Once the other party becomes emotionally unstable, more flaws may appear during the battle later. But what surprised him was that Bai Zhenghao was not moved by his words at all, which was different from Bai Zhenghao who was previously arrogant and domineering.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Hao is quite confident in his strength, which is exactly what I want." Zhao Hongwen chuckled.

The two of them talked on the central battle stage, and the children of the Bai family in the nearby areas below were also heard, especially the children who were now close to the edge of the central platform who participated in the family competition. These children basically gathered indifferently with Bai Zhenghao's attitude based on the groups of their branches and camps. Many of them were also surprised, and some of them even started to discuss it softly in private.

"Hey, Bai Zhenghao's nature has changed a lot, and he actually ignored Zhao Hongwen's provocation."

"I think he is just pretending to be on the surface. Zhao Hongwen is sure to win this duel. Although Bai Zhenghao has some strength, he has only been two years since he advanced to the Ninth Level of Juyuan Realm. Zhao Hongwen has been almost seven years. It is said that he is preparing to attack the Ninth Level of Guiyuan Realm recently."

"I don't think Bai Zhenghao is pretending, maybe he will have a stunning performance later."

"Amazing performance? I think you thought too much. I have understood his moral character well. Even though his strength has increased in the past two years, it is almost impossible to defeat Zhao Hongwen. I happened to watch the showdown between the two two years ago. Zhao Hongwen almost crushed the advantage of defeating Bai Zhenghao."

...

Although some of the children participating in the family competition are optimistic about Bai Zhenghao, most of them are obviously more optimistic about Zhao Hongwen, believing that Zhao Hongwen is sure to win the showdown on the Central Battle Platform in front of them.

Among the family competitions, a woman in blue, surrounded by more than a dozen children, looked at Bai Zhenghao slightly and said slowly: "I didn't expect that Bai Zhenghao, an idiot, has made some progress after not seeing each other for a year, at least not as reckless as before."

A young man in white next to the woman in blue heard this and smiled slightly, "Sister Dieyi said that Bai Zhenghao would take the bait after being slightly provoked. This time he seemed much more rational, but even if his strength was an elder, he could not be compared with Sister Dieyi. This time, the first place in the family competition was definitely a winner."

Bai Dieyi showed a hint of confidence on her face: "That's natural. For this family competition, I have postponed my advancement to the Guiyuan Realm, otherwise I would have been a Guiyuan Realm cultivator now."

The boy in white smiled and said, "That's right, Bai Zhenghao is just a jumping clown in front of Sister Dieyi. This time he is probably very forced to enter the top ten."

...

In a pavilion on the edge of the martial arts field, the second elder Bai Changyuan and the elder guest of the branch were sitting together and looking at the two people on the central battle platform with great enthusiasm.

Bai Changyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, Hongwen finally came on the stage. The battle was still against the precious grandson of Lao Qi. Now there is a good show. If you remember correctly, Hongwen had a private duel with Bai Zhenghao two years ago. At that time, Hongwen defeated Bai Zhenghao with absolute suppression. Compared with this duel, Hongwen should be determined to win."

A man in gray robe sitting not far from Bai Changyuan had a slightly moving expression. He was Zhao Hongwen's father Zhao Kuo, and a second-class guest official trusted by the second elder Bai Changyuan. More than ten years ago, he broke through the barrier of the Earth Yuan Realm and advanced to the Tianyuan Realm. Although he was a guest official, his status in the Bai family was quite high.

Zhao Kuo said slowly: "Hongwen was carefully cultivated by me. I am still quite clear about his strength. With his current strength, he should be considered a middle-class among the children of the Ninth Level of Juyuan Realm. If nothing unexpected happens in this family competition, I am not sure whether he can win in this duel. It is said that in the past year, Mr. Hao has received the guidance and training from Jiang Huan at Tianlong Villa, and his strength should have increased significantly."

Bai Changyuan showed a hint of disdain and said, "Brother Zhao, I think you are thinking too much. Jiang Huan is just a useless man who cannot use the power of his true energy. What he can teach is that only Lao Qi treats him as a treasure. Jiang Huan's fourth-class guest province is said to have exchanged it with the patriarch of Chengbei Han Iron Mine. I really didn't expect that a mere wasteful man would spend so much effort, but he is smart. If he hadn't handed over the Chengbei Han Iron Mine, he would have become the industry in my hands now."

...

In another pavilion, the seventh elder Bai Moran showed a slightly worried expression on his face. He knew Zhao Hongwen a little. He had been advancing to the Juyuan Realm for many years, and two years ago, Bai Zhenghao and Zhao Hongwen had a private showdown. At that time, Bai Zhenghao was almost completely defeated by Zhao Hongwen. Unexpectedly, the first opponent Bai Zhenghao encountered was Zhao Hongwen.

Bai Ruoxi also showed a hint of solemnity on her face. Although she is more optimistic about Bai Zhenghao now, Zhao Hongwen's opponent is not simple. She has heard of the private showdown between Bai Zhenghao and Zhao Hongwen two years ago. She is not very sure whether Bai Zhenghao has enough strength to defeat Zhao Hongwen.

"I hope Haoer is really as he said and has strong enough strength."

Bai Ruoxi secretly looked forward to it. No matter what, he still hoped that Bai Zhenghao could finally defeat Zhao Hongwen. If he could defeat Zhao Hongwen, no matter what the result was, he would be considered to show strong strength to the Bai family.

Jiang Huan, who was sitting aside, looked calm and he was quite confident in his conversation with Bai Zhenghao. Although he didn't know what level Zhao Hongwen's cultivation strength reached, Bai Zhenghao now has the Manniu style and the Mountain style, which is above most of the same-level opponents. He still has a lot of wins for opponents at the same level. Of course, he is not 100% sure that Bai Zhenghao can defeat Zhao Hongwen. After all, he doesn't know Zhao Hongwen. If the other party has any special powerful means, the result will probably be a different matter.
