Su Yan, Yao Qiu'er and Amber also walked over, but naturally these three people would not have their own seats, so they could only bypass the round table and stand in the seats belonging to their respective families.
Su Yan naturally stood behind Su Lan. For some reason, he was a little afraid of Su Ying, or he deliberately avoided it.
Yao Qiu'er came up behind Ni Tianju and stopped very obediently. She couldn't see the aggressive look he had when he was fighting Su Yan before.
Amber naturally turned around and went to the Kang family, but he did not dare to go to where Kang Yishan was. That would be equal to being on an equal footing with Kang Zhen. After a slight hesitation, Amber stood respectfully behind the Kang family elder.
Zuo Feng, who had just arrived, had already sat down, and Yao Qiu'er, Su Yan and Hu Hu also found their respective places.
As soon as Zuo Feng sat down, he noticed that everyone's eyes seemed to be focused on him, and then he remembered that they had sent someone to find him.
"I think the seniors who came to me should have something to inquire about. I am here to listen attentively."
Zuo Feng smiled and nodded slightly to everyone present. Zuo Feng still had this courtesy.
After hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Su Ying, the head of the Su family, who was sitting on the main seat.
There is one person in charge of the family, and although everyone here has a high status, this is the Su family after all, and the head of the family is personally presiding over the meeting, so they naturally show full respect.
The Su Ying's eagle eyes were turning, looking extremely sharp. After scanning the crowd, he looked at Zuo Feng with a smile and said: "Someone came to visit before, and the family token he held belonged to the Gui family. The person who came was just a messenger.
, but what he represents is a declaration of war from the Gui family."
At this point, Su Ying's face turned slightly cold, and continued: "This challenge is for the 'ghost man' of the Gui family to catch the ghost, Shen Feng, the guest of the Kang family, and it is a joint request of the Gui family and the painter, and the imperial capital is open to the highest competition.
Arena, and the imperial capital has agreed to this competition."
As Su Ying told the story, everyone's expressions became solemn, as if they didn't have much confidence in this competition.
Zuo Feng was stunned for a moment, then said: "Who is the ghost catcher of the Gui family, and what level of cultivation is he?"
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help being slightly stunned, but then they all turned their attention to Kang Zhen at the same time. However, Kang Zhen was standing behind Kang Yishan at this time, and the trajectory of everyone's gaze when they looked at him was easy to catch.
When everyone looked at Kang Zhen, Kang Yishan slowly turned his head, looked at his son with approval, and said: "Little friend Shen Feng may not know that this competition is completely a conspiracy against you. Everyone knows
I think you will refuse or find other ways to reject the competition."
At this point, he pointed backward at Kang Zhen and continued: "Only my son Kang Zhen firmly believes that you will never flinch at all. You will only care about your opponent's situation and consider how to deal with the enemy."
After Kang Yishan just finished speaking, Ni Tianju also said: "Even I didn't expect that little friend Shen Feng would have such a character. Not only is he amazing in refining medicine, but he also has the combative nature of a warrior, so I have to treat you.
Amazing."
Including Su Lan and the elders of various other families, the way they looked at Zuo Feng was slightly different from before.
These people have all come from little warriors step by step. In the process of cultivation, they cannot avoid fighting with various powerful enemies, so they value more those who do not hesitate or flinch in the face of battle.
Zuo Feng didn't think so much. After being praised so much, he felt a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and rubbed his nose gently, and then continued: "Can I refuse this competition? From what you are saying, it seems that this battle will happen once
Once determined by the empire, it should be impossible to decide."
After everyone heard this, they suddenly realized, but the calmness Zuo Feng showed before was not fake at all. It was obvious that Zuo Feng was still very calm in his heart when facing this battle.
From Zuo Feng's point of view, since it is a duel, there should be no huge disparity in strength between them. It is impossible to invite warriors who are already in the muscle tempering stage and the supreme powerhouses in the god refining stage to fight together and then define it as a "duel"
Bar.
Seeing that everyone was speechless, Su Ying said: "The Xuanwu Empire usually does not allow warriors to fight each other privately, especially if they start fighting on the street if they disagree. This will directly affect the order of the Imperial Capital, and it is easy for some families to fight in the Imperial Capital.
If you fight and get involved, it may end up being a large-scale battle.
The Xuanwu Empire does not prevent competitions between warriors, but it does not want to trigger large-scale internal conflicts. In this way, the competition arena becomes very meaningful.
However, under normal circumstances, some ordinary fighting arenas are used. This kind of fighting arena is prepared for all those who have enmity in the imperial capital. As long as there are disputes between each other, they can go to the fighting arena to resolve life or death."
At this moment, hearing the fresh term "competition arena", Zuo Feng became very interested and asked: "So are there any restrictions and requirements for this kind of competition in the combat arena? I'm here."
Haven’t seen it anywhere else.”
Hearing Zuo Feng's question, Su Ying was stunned for a moment and then laughed "haha" and said: "Young friend Shen Feng is indeed interesting. Since you have asked me this question, I will tell you about it."
Everyone here was originally very concerned about the Gui family's challenge, but now seeing Zuo Feng's reaction, their expressions softened slightly. Although Zuo Feng did not admit it, everyone could feel that Zuo Feng was facing the Gui family's challenge.
What the wind expresses is the word "relaxation".
Su Ying thought for a moment and then said: "Actually, some counties and cities also have competition arenas, but the order in the county cities is not as strict as the imperial capital, so conflicts are usually resolved directly, as long as they do not involve the county.
I won't pay attention to the management of Chengcheng Shou.
The Imperial Capital cannot be so indulgent. After all, various aristocratic families come here to trade every day, and even warriors from other empires come here. Once the contradiction expands infinitely, it may eventually directly affect the empire's prestige."
Speaking of this, Su Ying also paused, looked at Zuo Feng thoughtfully and asked: "Young friend Shen Feng, do you know what is the most important thing in this imperial capital?"
He didn't understand why Su Ying suddenly asked this question, but what Zuo Feng subconsciously thought of was the two words "cultivation", but he immediately rejected this idea, and then the two words "background" came up,
It was also quickly rejected by him.
After thinking for a while, Zuo Feng slowly shook his head. Su Ying nodded without surprise, and then said: "The most important thing is the 'rules', which can also be called 'rules'."
Listening to Su Ying's words calmly, when he said the word "rules", the other people present couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
After Na Suying looked around, he said again: "When the imperial capital was first established, it was not the king who could decide everything with one word. We super families also restrained each other, and instead formed a balance. It is this balance that makes
Xuanwu has maintained stable development for countless years.
The basis of this stability and balance is the 'rules', which were jointly formulated by the original head of the country and the heads of many aristocratic families at that time. Everyone understands that no matter what, the rules of the imperial capital cannot be violated. These rules are the foundation of the stability of the imperial capital.
It is also the basis for Xuanwu to avoid chaos."
After listening to these words, Zuo Feng finally felt a sudden realization. Many questions he had after coming to the Xuanwu Empire were clearly explained by Su Ying in just a few words.
He approached it from the perspective of "rules" and directly uncovered the most fundamental foundation of order in Xuanwu. At the same time, he also allowed Zuo Feng to understand how Xuanwu, a special empire on the continent, had developed over the years.
Seeing Zuo Feng's reaction, Su Ying seemed very satisfied, and then continued with a smile: "It is inevitable that there will be conflicts among ordinary warriors in the imperial capital, and there are also some who committed evil outside and fled to the imperial capital for refuge. Such people are not something that any family can
Dispose of it, otherwise it will be suspected of seizing power.
However, some people do commit heinous crimes, and there is nothing that can be done to prevent them from taking revenge. After all, this is human nature. In this way, the battle arena becomes a way to solve the problem, but everyone is a warrior, and in the end, strength must speak for itself.
Since it is about solving troubles, this kind of competition cannot be absolutely fair, but it cannot be too excessive. The level of the warriors during the competition cannot exceed one level, so that the challenging party can be higher than the challenged one.
At both levels, if you can win in this way, you will not be able to continue to take revenge in the future.
Of course, if the person who accepts the challenge wins and then leaves the capital, he will not be restricted by the rules of the capital and will still be found by his enemies."
At this point, Su Ying's face gradually became serious, and he turned his eyes to Zuo Feng again and said: "In addition to the ordinary competition arena, there is also a special competition arena in the imperial capital, also called the Supreme Competition Arena. This Supreme Competition Arena
Only super aristocratic families can raise the duel look, and it is also a special channel for super aristocratic families to resolve disputes.
The rules of the highest competition in the arena are naturally more in favor of the super family, that is, the strength between warriors cannot exceed two levels. This means that the person you challenge is two levels higher than you.
.
Your current cultivation level has reached the eighth level of the tempering stage, so even if the opponent has reached the first level of the qi-sensing stage, it is not a violation of the rules. I heard that you have fought against a strong person in the qi-sensing stage, so you can
Understand the difference."
Zuo Feng, who was listening attentively, now gradually became gloomy. He did not expect that the "rules" Su Ying mentioned were actually such a thing, and that in the end the situation would be so unfavorable to him.
Su Ying seemed to have not seen Zuo Feng's reaction and continued: "If it is a challenge raised by one family, then if two families object and they are both super families, they can directly reject the competition. But they are jointly proposed by two families.
Come out, you should know better when I say this."
