Chapter 1605 - 1588: Sophistry
"Jiajia, hurry up and get people on WeChat!" Feeling the pressure was too much, Liao Chen shouted to his girlfriend Song Jia while fighting, signaling for her to quickly contact others through WeChat. There were too few of them, and if others could come over, these people wouldn’t be their match.
"We’re in a fight with others, you guys hurry and support us. Follow the sound of fighting to find us!" Hearing Liao Chen’s reminder, Song Jia realized she could call others over, so she quickly took out her phone and shouted in the Lingxiu Academy group.
After that, they desperately defended their position, hoping others would come quickly.
In fact, Song Jia’s message was really effective; everyone at Lingxiu Academy saw it. Previously, they were guessing who was causing such a commotion, but when they learned it was Liao Chen in danger, they rushed to his aid from all directions without a second thought.
When Xia Jianping and others arrived, they were furious because Liao Chen and his group were surrounded by thirty or forty people and were barely holding on. Seeing the situation, the ten children went berserk, charging into the crowd like tigers descending the mountain.
"Bang! Ah!"
"These kids!"
"Where did they come from? They’re incredible!"
...
Zhang Fahua and the others, who had formed a good encirclement, were directly broken through by the kids. The children left them dumbfounded. A bunch of kids at the Transcendent Realm—who would believe such a thing? Even these loose cultivators were only at the Transcendent Realm, and the oldest was over forty. Being beaten senseless by a group of kids, they thought to themselves, were these really kids? This was more like a group of demon beasts!
But the fight was already on, and they couldn’t back down. Under forced circumstances, they could only bring out their best abilities and stand against these newly joined kids. The scene was a complete mess, with people constantly engaging and an occasional figure flying out...
"They... they’re the Xia Family kids!" Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd. It was a loose cultivator. Now he remembered the rumors about the grand competition of the four prominent families. If these ten kids weren’t the Xia Family’s, it would be shocking.
"What!"
"The Xia Family’s kids!"
"Aren’t they the kids taught by Lin Feng!"
...
Upon hearing this reminder, the onlookers were all stunned, finally understanding why the kids were so formidable. They thought things were bad; something significant was going to happen. If Lin Feng showed up, the situation would become terrifying.
However, the situation was already out of control; no one could hear anything because the scene was beyond chaotic, with the deafening sound of fighting and morning mist enveloped everywhere! It’s impossible for anyone to control such a scenario with dozens fighting together.
Lin Feng, leading Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei, was heading towards Leng Hao when his brow furrowed upon noticing something happening. With his divine sense, he discovered that the kids and Liao Chen were fighting others, which surprised him.
"Let’s change direction. Our people are fighting over there," Lin Feng turned and said to the two women. After speaking, he immediately changed direction. Under no circumstances would he let anything happen to the kids and Liao Chen, especially since Lin Feng believed they would never instigate a fight, which was enough for him.
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei were surprised by Lin Feng’s words. Without questioning him further, they quickly followed. They also wanted to see what was going on. Lingxiu Academy had strict management, and its students would never provoke trouble. There must be a reason for such an incident, and they didn’t want the academy students to suffer...
The fight continued. Suddenly, a team approached from afar, the United Law Enforcement Team formed by various forces’ representatives, led by an elder from the Kong Family named Kong Sanfeng. Upon seeing the situation, the law enforcement team frowned, shocked that someone dared to cause trouble here!
"The United Law Enforcement Team is here! I dare anyone to continue fighting. Don’t blame me for being rude if anyone doesn’t stop!"
Witnessing the brawl, Kong Sanfeng roared thunderously, loud and clear, signaling everyone. Continuing to fight in front of the United Law Enforcement Team was a direct provocation.
The two battling sides froze and retreated upon hearing Kong Sanfeng, with their eyes fixed on him. With the law enforcement team present, fighting further was impossible, as it would cause trouble. They understood this well.
After the fighting parties separated, Kong Sanfeng scanned the crowd, immediately recognizing Xia Jianping and Liao Chen and feeling uneasy. He hadn’t expected Lin Feng’s people to be causing trouble. Not knowing Zhang Fahua and the others, he’d prefer to suppress them rather than Lin Feng’s side. If Lin Feng’s people were harmed and Lin Feng got angry, no one could stop him.
Weighing the situation, he pointed coldly at Zhang Fahua: "Explain why you’re fighting!"
His icy tone was that of the law enforcement leader, determined to resolve the situation. But he knew it was wishful thinking; as long as Lin Feng was involved, even he couldn’t dare to handle Liao Chen.
"They destroyed the formation. You must arrest them!" Zhang Fahua immediately complained upon hearing Kong Sanfeng, hoping the law enforcement team’s arrival would prevent escape!
"You claim we destroyed the formation. On what grounds? We don’t know what formation you’re talking about!" Liao Chen retorted, not caring about anyone around. Even though Teacher Lin instructed not to cause trouble, this wasn’t his fault, so there was no need to be reserved.
"We still don’t understand what’s going on."
"Yes, it was Zhang Fahua who started the fight!"
"They should be the ones arrested!"
...
The kids and students, standing united, refuted. It wasn’t their fault, and they still didn’t know what was happening. Claiming they destroyed the formation was a blatant lie!
Kong Sanfeng, hearing the kids and Liao Chen, felt the situation wasn’t as it seemed. Someone must be lying; otherwise, the outcome would differ. Contemplating this, he sternly questioned Zhang Fahua again: "Destruction of the formation! Explain clearly!"
"This kid openly used a phone. Everyone knows my master, Zhang Tianzhen, set up the formation in this area to stabilize the space. So, no one’s phone can be used. The fact that theirs worked proves they destroyed my master’s formation! If they didn’t, how could their phones work?"
Zhang Fahua scolded Liao Chen, believing that, even after resisting, their destruction warranted the law enforcement team’s action. He couldn’t imagine them ignoring it after mentioning his master Zhang Tianzhen!
"Your baseless accusation claiming we destroyed the formation—what’s your proof?" Liao Chen sneered, seeing Zhang Fahua as an idiot!
"Proof? Your phone usage is proof. If you hadn’t destroyed the formation, how could your phones work?" Zhang Fahua, enraged by Liao Chen’s words, countered.
"If, as you say, I destroyed the formation and my phone works, why do only our phones work while others don’t?" Liao Chen ignored Zhang Fahua’s questions and retorted, curious about his explanation.
"This... this..." Zhang Fahua was momentarily stumped by Liao Chen’s question. He realized that if Liao Chen and his group destroyed the formation, everyone’s phones should work, not just theirs, indicating a flaw in his argument.
But he couldn’t admit this now; he’d lose face. Letting these kids win would disgrace him before other cultivators. So, seeing no retreat, after weighing the pros and cons, he continued yelling at Liao Chen: "Don’t think a few words can deceive others. You’ve destroyed the formation and added your own elements. Don’t think you can fool me, a disciple of Formation Master Zhang Tianzhen, Zhang Fahua!"
Upon Zhang Fahua’s declaration, the onlookers were enlightened, believing his words. It seemed logical. Had someone else analyzed it, they might not believe it, but not when Zhang Tianzhen’s disciple spoke. Thus, they focused on Liao Chen, awaiting his explanation.
