My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 295 - 294: Overconfidence

"Gao Fei! What on earth is going on!" Miao Zheng glared at Gao Fei, his face looking terrible.

"They were the ones who started it." Gao Fei picked up a jar of wine and poured a mouthful into his mouth.

"How did they start anything!" Miao Zheng pressed on for answers.

"Why do you need to know so clearly! Let's just forget about it since it's past! Don't mention it again!" Gao Fei waved his hand dismissively.

"You have to explain clearly." Miao Zheng's eyes widened, "I don't want to fight confusedly, let alone offend people without knowing why."

"Actually, it's not a big deal, just over a few jars of wine." Gao Fei shrugged, "We ran out of wine, so I went to buy a few jars from the people of Sunset Sect. They had plenty of wine, selling some to us wouldn't have been a big deal, but they unexpectedly refused..."

Miao Zheng's face twitched, "And then you started fighting them?"

"Listen to me and let me finish." Gao Fei said indignantly, "It's fine if they wouldn't sell the wine, but they also insulted us, with really awful words... Insulting me is one thing, but they even dragged Tianyang Sect into it, saying Tianyang Sect is trash and will be eliminated sooner or later. The moment I heard that, I got infuriated and I started fighting them." Gao Fei exaggerated on purpose.

"So you're saying you were the first to throw a punch." Miao Zheng's face darkened.

"Yes, I was the first to make a move." Gao Fei nodded, "They can insult me, but not Tianyang Sect! Whoever dares to slander Tianyang Sect, I'll fight them to the death!"

"Gao Fei! You're just a troublemaker." Miao Zheng cursed, "Now that the disciples of Sunset Sect have been beaten, they definitely won't let this go. When the time comes..."

"Enough, say less." Gao Fei waved his hand, "The fight has already happened, getting angry about it now is pointless. Let's hurry up and eat and drink." Gao Fei brushed it off, "It's just Sunset Sect, what's the big deal?"

"You..."

"In terms of strength, prestige, and background, Tianyang Sect is streets ahead of Sunset Sect. I can't believe Sunset Sect would dare to challenge Tianyang Sect!"

"The trouble was caused by you, why should Tianyang Sect take responsibility for you?"

"I fought for the honor of Tianyang Sect!"

"Gao Fei..."

"I don't want to hear you talk right now, please shut your mouth." Gao Fei stood up, carrying the jar of wine, and walked off into the distance, "Babbling on and on, so annoying."

"How can there be such a person in the world?" Miao Zheng gnashed his teeth and cursed, "Shameless, despicable, no face! What a thing!"

...

Elsewhere.

The disciples of Sunset Sect were sitting together, quietly cursing the disciples of Tianyang Sect. They spoke in hushed tones, afraid that Gao Fei and the others would hear them and give them another beating.

"I'm so mad it's killing me, I'm so mad. This is the first time in my life I've been beaten up! And it was such a terrible beating!" Hu Qiu clenched his fists tightly, his eyes red, and he hissed in a low growl.

"Don't be angry," one of the disciples tried to calm him, "We're currently isolated and weak. We must swallow our grievances for now and wait until we return to Sunset Sect, then let the Sect Leader seek justice for us."

"Yes! Seek justice!"

"Kill these bastards!"

"We will not be bullied!"

...

"Let's go back now," Hu Qiu said, "We won't participate in the trial anymore."

"How can this be?"

"No! We have to participate in the trial!"

"If we go back in defeat now, surely there will be punishment."

"Young Master Hu, just bear with it for a few more days, wait until the trial is over, then we can return to Sunset Sect immediately."

Swayed by his fellow disciples, Hu Qiu finally changed his mind.

"Alright." Hu Qiu nodded, "I'll endure it for a few more days."

...

Three days later.

A luxurious and grand flying ship approached from the distance.

The flying ship moved at a very fast pace, one moment it was hundreds of meters away, and the next, it landed on the open ground, the cabin door opened, and several people stepped out. Leading them was a white-haired elder with Golden Core Realm Cultivation, broad-shouldered and powerful in stance, walking with great presence.

"Hello everyone!" The elder greeted with a smile, "My name is Bu Yang, and I'll be the Supervisor for this Beast King Valley trial. You can address me as Elder Bu, or Senior Bu. Let me go over the rules... Once you enter Beast King Valley, you can split up or work as a group. After hunting the Ferocious Beasts, you must cut open their bellies and take out their inner cores.

Whoever collects the most inner cores will rank first!" Bu Yang paused before continuing, "You have only half a month, which is to say, fifteen days. After fifteen days, I will close the Formation. Those who can't get out in time will be trapped inside until the next opening of Beast King Valley."

Thousands of disciples listened silently, not one speaking out.

"That's all I have to say, did you all get that?" Bu Yang asked.

"We got it," the thousands replied in unison.

"Good, you may now enter Beast King Valley," Bu Yang said, pulling out a small flag from his sleeve and waving it a few times. A rumbling noise came from the direction of Beast King Valley, sounding like thunder.

After a moment, Bu Yang put away the flag and addressed the crowd, "Go ahead, line up, no pushing, and I remind you one last time, you must exit within half a month!"

Thousands lined up, heading toward Beast King Valley.

It didn't take long for all the thousands to have entered Beast King Valley.

"Thousands go in, but how many will live to come out?" Bu Yang sighed slightly, "The competition is fierce, it's too hard to stand out."

...

"This is Beast King Valley? Looks quite nice!" Gao Fei surveyed the area, "There are flowers, grass, mountains, and water, the environment is beautiful."

"Cut the nonsense! Let's move!" Miao Zheng said with a stern face, "From now on, we must do our utmost to hunt Ferocious Beasts, and the more we kill, the better our chances of winning."

"Hold on," Gao Fei gestured, "I have a question!"

"What's the problem?" Miao Zheng frowned.

"How are we going to distribute the inner cores of the ferocious beasts?"

"They'll be divided equally, of course."

"That doesn't seem very fair, does it?"

"Then what do you suggest?"

"The one who kills the beast gets its inner core."

"Fine, we'll do it your way," Miao Zheng nodded. "Do you have any other questions? If not, let's get moving!"

Gao Fei shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, indicating he had no more questions.

"Let's go." With a grand gesture, Miao Zheng led the group deeper into the Beast King Valley.

...

"Awooo..."

"Aroo aroo..."

"Oooo..."

Sounds of animal roars traveled from a distance alongside faint yelling and fighting noises.

"Hurry up, the ferocious beasts are right ahead." Miao Zheng pulled out his weapon and sped up towards the front.

The others quickly followed suit.

"Swoosh..."

A dappled tiger sprang out in front of them, ten meters long, baring its fangs, extremely fierce.

"Perfect timing!" With his weapon in hand, Miao Zheng took a swing at the tiger: "Everyone step aside, let me handle this tiger alone!"

Gao Fei sneered and cursed under his breath, what a joke, hogging the prey all to himself, shameless!

"Crackle crackle..."

"Boom boom boom..."

"Clang!"

Miao Zheng and the tiger fought fiercely. In terms of cultivation, Miao Zheng was a bit higher, but the tiger's body was strong and agile, especially its teeth, razor-sharp. Several times Miao Zheng nearly got bitten, sending a cold sweat down his spine.

After exchanging dozens of moves, Miao Zheng began to gain the upper hand, and the tiger was driven back step by step.

"Bang!"

Miao Zheng's kick flew up and landed right on the tiger's forehead, causing it to howl in pain before turning tail to run; knowing it was outmatched, it chose to flee.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Miao Zheng took up his weapon and chased after it: "Get down for me!" He held his weapon with both hands and brought it down onto the tiger.

"Boom!"

His hefty weapon struck the tiger's back accurately, "crack!" a sound was heard - the tiger's spine was broken. It fell to the ground with a desperate roar.

It was unwilling to die like this!

It hadn't lived long enough!

But what good were regrets? What did it matter if it hadn't lived long enough? The final outcome wouldn't change at all!

"Plop!"

Miao Zheng raised his weapon high and brought it down forcefully, smashing the tiger's head to pulp.

The huge body of the tiger twitched a few times, then lay still.

"Phew..." Miao Zheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a long breath out, "That wore me out! This tiger was tough!" While speaking, Miao Zheng sliced open the tiger's belly and pulled out an inner core the size of a baby's fist, nodding his head in satisfaction before stowing it away.

"Congratulations, Brother Miao, a major victory in the first battle!"

"Brother Miao is amazing! With one move, he took down an incredibly powerful tiger!"

"The first place in the trial is undoubtedly Brother Miao's."

The junior disciples crowded around, raining down flattery.

"These ferocious beasts seem formidable, but they're all show and no substance. They can easily be killed with a bare hand," boasted Miao Zheng unabashedly: "I came here for the first place, and I believe that in the end, it will be mine."

So shameless! Gao Fei grimaced and cursed silently, not even the blind deity could grant you the first place.

"Let's go! Keep moving deeper!" Miao Zheng kicked the tiger's corpse aside, then led the group further on.

Along the way, they encountered many ferocious beasts, with cultivation at the Fasting Stage and some at the Qi Gathering Stage. None of them had high cultivation, but their numbers were plentiful! After a fierce fight, Gao Fei and the others obtained some inner cores as well.

"Thrilling! Today was truly exhilarating!" laughed Miao Zheng heartily: "It's been a long time since I've had so much fun! Let's go, deeper in we go!" As he walked and laughed, Miao Zheng said, "When we left the Tianyang Sect, our Sect Leader specifically instructed us that the Beast King Valley was fraught with danger and urged us to be careful and not take unnecessary risks. Now it seems...

the Sect Leader was too concerned, there's no danger in Beast King Valley at all... The cultivation levels of these beasts are low... they can be killed with ease."

"Who says there's no danger?" Gao Fei grimaced. "Many disciples have been injured!"

"They're just minor injuries, nothing serious," Miao Zheng waved dismissively.

"Don't forget, the trial has only just begun. We'll be in Beast King Valley for half a month, who knows what we'll encounter?" said Gao Fei.

"What could possibly happen?" Miao Zheng snorted. "Gao Fei, stop spreading fear here! If you're scared, you can quit right now, I definitely won't stop you."
