"Heh. I agree." Xika stepped forward while smiling confidently.

Jing Wei who saw this immediately turned his head in shock. He approached and whispered, "Well, are you crazy? Just shut up and let me sort this out!"

"no need. The old fox won't keep quiet until I agree to fight the bastard. I insulted him before. If I refuse to fight him, doesn't that mean I lick my own spit?"

Without waiting for Jing Wei's response, Xika advanced towards Han Li and asked him.

"When exactly did this Tian Yin bastard come? Where should the fight be held?"

Han Li frowned as he looked at the smile of Xika who was still confident despite knowing that she was going to fight Tian Yin. But he soon calmed his heart. No matter how great Xika was, she would not be able to win from Tian Yin. Besides, even if Xika wins she doesn't care. The plan will work no matter who wins.

"I'll tell you more about it. And for the fight, why not just in the Academy? I think Mu Zhan Academy has the best facilities among all of us."

"Oh?" Xika raised one of her eyebrows. Why is the fight at the Academy? What exactly was Han Li planning to do? Somehow he felt Han Li still had other plans. "Dearly enough. Though I wish I could visit the Burning Abyss Sect."

"Hahaha. You'll be accepted as a guest." Han Li smiled arrogantly, Xika had already agreed to fight with Tian Yin meaning her plan must have worked.

"Well if it's like that. I will definitely visit Brother Han and see his injuries," Xika said with a friendly smile.

His words instantly made Han Li's face darken. Goddamn bum. This kid dared insult me? Heh. Let's see who will laugh at the end. Han Li gave a wide smile that contained a million meanings in it.

"Then the Burning Abyss Sect will be waiting for your visit, son!" Finished talking like that, Han Li stepped away towards the banquet table and enjoyed the banquet as if nothing had happened before.

Xika frowned seeing that. Han Li was just silent about his provocations? Not likely. What is this old fox planning? Then that smile of hers, there was a hidden meaning behind her smile.

Seeing Han Li, who was previously the most fiery now enjoying the banquet peacefully, slowly the other guests began to enjoy the banquet, although the atmosphere was still different from before. Every now and then, there would be guests who turned to look at Xika and Han Li in turn as if they could not believe that no fight had happened given how hot the situation was.

Every time Han Li opened his mouth, all the guests immediately focused their gaze on the man. But apparently all he talked about was the food at the banquet so that the guests again enjoyed their banquet.

Xika took a somewhat secluded corner and discussed with Huo Bing and Heiliao.

"Don't that seem a bit strange? That old bastard was silent about my provocation? And again, what exactly is he planning? Why did he want the fight to be held at the Academy to the point of praising the facilities of all? The Burning Abyss Sect would not acknowledge any other sect better than them. It was impossible for him to be satisfied with just me fighting with Tian Yin."

"Md. Youre right. He's planning something. Maybe he's after something at the academy. Secret techniques maybe?" heiliao guessed.

"Looks not. Burning Abyss seemed to have no shortage of techniques. They already have their own secret techniques. It felt like there was still something more precious that was able to make that old bastard Han Li move."

"Hey, it feels like we've done this talk before?" said Huo Bing who finally finished finishing her third plate.

"Np? When?"

Xika frowned. Huo Bing's words reminded Xika of the casual chatter they were doing back then. Xingli was also with them back then.

"So Han Li was after that? Secrets about what that is? But how do we figure out the secret and how do we prevent that old bastard from getting it?"

"Should we discuss it with Jing Wei?"

"No, no. You forgot how stolen he was to us? Jing Wei thought we were intruders about to take the treasure. If we discuss with Jing Wei that there he will be even more suspicious of us. Besides, aren't you interested in the treasure itself?" huo Bing asked while giving a foul smile to Xika.

"Why does it sound a little wrong to do that."

"yeah. Don't talk wrong to me. You forgot what you did in the competition before?"

"Eh, it doesn't count. It's a different case."

"Sad. After all, it was still better for the treasure to fall into our hands than Han Li's hands. We are counted as part of the Academy. Unlike Han Li who was an outsider."

"Well, I still feel a bit guilty. But you're right. It's better that the treasure falls into our hands than Han Li." said Xika finally admitted her rottenness. While Heiliao stared at the two flatly. He had known from the beginning that both of them were planning to take the treasure for themselves.

"Ah, Brother Jing. Suddenly an idea flashed through my head. Since the fight will be held at the Academy, why don't we stay a little longer at this place of yours? You don't mind, do you? After all, everyone would definitely want to see who the real Number One Genius is," Han Li said as he glanced at Xika.

The attention of all the guests immediately returned again to Han Li. They had expected that Han Li would not just shut up. He would definitely do something, even though the thing Han Li asked for this time was not strange. In fact, he had represented the desire of the many guests here to be able to watch the fight between Xika and Tian Yin.

Xika was indeed no ordinary cultivator. He can master the four elements, has a strange weapon and can even defeat Han Feng who is already in Middle-Jack. His strength and abilities were beyond the shadow of all who were watching. If they had never known Tian Yin, then they would have definitely designated Xika as the Number One Genius.

Unfortunately, Tian Yin could not be underestimated either. It has two different elements: fire and water, although it is not comparable to Xika but it is still a great achievement and not everyone can do that. Moreover, he was famous for his speed in cultivating. His age was indeed not much different from Xika, but his cultivation level was equivalent to or even higher than Han Feng.

Despite that, many felt that this fight was still too fast. They agree that Xika is still too young for this decisive fight. If you wait another two or three years, then it is likely that Xika will catch up with Tian Yin. But now? Still too soon.

However, the fight between Xika and Tian Yin was definitely not a fight they could miss even though they thought Xika was still too young. And fortunately, Han Li had conveyed their desire to be able to watch the fight of the two.

Jing Wei could feel a feeling of imminent danger. Han Li had moved forward in his plans and he had no idea at all what Han Li was planning. Actually he held this banquet so that all the existing guests could quickly return to their respective sects. Who would have thought that the Xika court would instead detain the guests from the various sects for longer? And now, he had no reason to refuse.

"I don't mind. However, as you can see my Academy is not very broad. I can't provide more space than you have right now."

"Hahaha. Just like this alone is more than enough, Brother Jing." Han Li patted Jing Wei on the back.

The feeling of suspicion and danger that Xika felt increased even more when Han Li proposed that the representatives of the other sects stay here in order to be able to watch her fight with Tian Yin. What does he want? Does he want to make a proof? Do something in front of a lot of people so that he will be recognized? Wait, does he want to rule over the Lin Dynasty?

Gathering representatives from various sects in one place sounds like a good move if you want to rule over the Lin Dynasty. That way he did not have to bother subduing the other sects one by one. In that case, wasn't his fight with Tian Yin just an excuse to summon representatives from other sects?
