"I am Bai Yufeng, the deputy general under the command of the General of Zhen Guo!"
The general bowed and shouted, his voice echoing throughout the venue, drawing everyone's attention to him. Clad in silver armor with a silver crown on his head, he exuded a striking presence with his handsome and upright appearance.
What a dashing silver-armored warrior!
Qin Jun couldn't help but admire. In his previous memories, there was no impression of Bai Yufeng, who was definitely not just a deputy general.
Most importantly, Bai Yufeng unexpectedly possessed the cultivation of the Transcendent Realm. Qin Jun hadn't expected the Qianyue Kingdom to conceal such deep strength.
The people and cultivators around the Vermilion Bird Platform were all whispering and discussing the identity of Bai Yufeng.
At that moment, on the seating area of the Canglan Kingdom, Song Lang swiftly appeared on the Vermilion Bird Platform and greeted, "Song Lang, from the Canglan Kingdom."
Standing in front of Bai Yufeng, he appeared ordinary, and his momentum and appearance were clearly inferior, causing the audience to burst into laughter.
"General Bai, go for it! Defeat him!"
"You must fight for the honor of the Qianyue Kingdom!"
"Why haven't we heard of General Bai before?"
"He's just a deputy general."
"Come on, his aura is fit for a full general!"
Qin Jun couldn't help but feel nervous. If Bai Yufeng won, then Nan Meng would definitely have a chance to win, and then there would be an opportunity for him to appear?
He subconsciously asked Guan Yu, "Who do you think will win?"
"Song Lang," Guan Yu said succinctly, then closed his eyes, showing no interest in the duel between the two on the platform.
Qin Jun immediately felt relieved.
Beside him, Daji rolled her eyes and said, "You're a prince, and you're hoping for your country to lose?"
"Hehe, with you guys here, how could we possibly lose?" Qin Jun laughed shamelessly. Daji didn't respond, but the smirk on her face indicated that she was in a very pleasant mood.
"Activate the formation!"
Suddenly, Shen Yan loudly commanded, and as soon as he finished speaking, a faint purple light curtain rose from the edge of the Vermilion Bird Platform, soaring into the sky.
A formation!
Qin Jun's eyes lit up. Formations were similar to mechanisms, but more profound, based on spiritual energy. They could not only defend against enemies but also be used for cultivation. He had benefited from the help of formations in the Xuanling Sect when he comprehended his divine abilities.
He hadn't expected the Vermilion Bird Platform to have a formation. However, upon further thought, Qin Jun understood. After all, the platform was surrounded by common people, and if cultivators used spells, it could easily cause large-scale collateral damage.
"Is your country's Purple Light Prison Formation really a top-grade formation? Is it true?" Prince Zhu Yishi asked with great interest to the closest prince of the Qianyue Kingdom. Formations and artifacts were classified as Yellow, Profound, Earth, and Heaven grades, each with three tiers of lower, middle, and upper.
In the kingdom, reaching Earth grade or higher in formations and artifacts was extremely rare, and each appearance would cause a great stir. The Purple Light Prison Formation was owned by the royal family, and no one dared to seize it.
"Of course! The Purple Light Prison Formation is the strongest formation in our country!" The prince who was asked was very fat, and without hesitation, he proudly replied.
"Second brother, shut up!"
Not far away, Qin Yu, the second prince, coldly reprimanded, frightening the fat prince into trembling.
Qin Lie, the second prince, was considered the bottom among the many princes. No, previously, Qin Jun had occupied the weakest position.
"Why are you so angry, Fifth Prince? After all, the Second Prince is your brother," Zhu Yishi said with a smile, causing Qin Lie to nod.
That's right!
I am your second brother. How can you tell me to shut up in front of everyone and make me lose face?
With this thought, Qin Lie became displeased and looked at Qin Yu with a gaze full of anger.
"Qin Yu, you..."
"Quiet!"
A stern voice interrupted Qin Lie, who was about to retort. But as the words reached his mouth, he held back, looking at the Qian Emperor on the dragon throne in front with a panic-stricken expression.
The Qian Emperor glanced at Zhu Yishi and said, "You are quite good, much stronger than my useless sons."
"Thank you for the praise, Your Majesty," Zhu Yishi replied with a bow, while the other princes felt a sense of injustice and hostility towards him.
With just one sentence, the conflict stirred up by Zhu Yishi was resolved, and at the same time, it united the princes against him.
Truly an emperor!
Zhu Yishi couldn't help but sigh. His father had once said that although the Qian Emperor was not as good as the previous generation, his methods were unmatched, even surpassing his father. Unfortunately, the Qian Emperor was too eager for quick success and instant benefits, which led to the continuous decline of the Qianyue Kingdom's strength.
As the Grand General, Nan Meng had been fighting for years. In the past five years, his cultivation had almost stagnated because he had been leading troops in battle and had no time to cultivate.
His practical combat experience had already reached a bottleneck.
"Let the battle begin!"
On the Vermilion Bird Platform, Shen Yan loudly announced, then quickly moved to the side. The battle between two Transcendent Realm powerhouses was not something he, a Golden Core Realm peak cultivator, could intervene in.
"Please enlighten me!"
Bai Yufeng said in a deep voice, raising his right hand. A red-tasseled silver spear appeared in his hand out of thin air, obviously from his storage ring.
Song Lang raised his hand, indicating for Bai Yufeng to launch the first attack.
Such a contemptuous attitude deeply provoked Bai Yufeng. Immediately, he thrust his long spear, and with a leap, he chased after Song Lang, who had dodged his attack with incredible speed.
With a loud bang!
Bai Yufeng's legs bent and sprung up like a cannonball, chasing after Song Lang.
The speed of the two was so fast that Qin Jun's eyes couldn't even catch up, let alone the common people and most cultivators. They were all watching with bated breath, afraid to make a sound.
The generals sitting on the attic were equally tense.
"I hope Bai Yufeng won't let me down," Qin Yu murmured, gripping the armrest of his chair tightly, his palms covered in cold sweat.
Although Bai Yufeng was from the Southern Savage, he was related to Qin Yu. So if Bai Yufeng won, he would naturally be happy, and he might even use Bai Yufeng to weaken the military power of the Southern Savage.
Although Emperor Qian's face remained calm, his eyes dared not blink.
Under his leadership, the Qianyue Kingdom had already lost once in a duel between the two countries, and he did not want to lose a second time.
Unfortunately, although Bai Yufeng started with a fierce attack, he was quickly suppressed.
Song Lang dodged for only three rounds before launching a counterattack. With a wave of his right hand, he condensed spiritual power into a giant green hand, directly slamming Bai Yufeng to the ground.
The sight of him falling from dozens of meters high made Qin Jun wince.
The white jade rock on the Vermilion Bird Terrace was even dented, showing the immense power of the impact. Even if Qin Jun attacked with all his might, it would be difficult to damage the Vermilion Bird Terrace.
Bai Yufeng sprang up with a somersault, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. He wielded his spear with one hand, and in an instant, a white dragon formed from spiritual power coiled around him, creating a spectacular sight with faint echoes of dragon roars.
