After He Yunxiao and Du Yinyun left, the match session continued.

Under Jiang Wuyou’s auspices, the atmosphere in the Spring Breeze Mansion soon came back to life.

Most people were not surprised by He Yunxiao’s arrogance and dominance, and although they were a little surprised by his martial achievements, they did not find it strange that this man was the son of a Marquis and had access to a large amount of resources, so they did not find it strange that he was better at martial arts.

After He Chu’s fight, Du Huakui went to embrace He Yunxiao also caused no small amount of speculation.

There was talk that He Yunxiao was about to die and Du Huaqui was in a hurry to hold him. There was also talk that He Yunxiao had forced himself to take advantage of Du Huaqui because he was injured. Others guessed that Du Huakui was actually He Yunxiao’s lost sister, and that it was normal for a brother and sister to meet and hug each other.

In any case, no one dared to guess that He Yunxiao was pretending to be on the ground because it was too appalling. Of course, this is absolutely impossible.

Strangely enough, more people believed the last rumor than either of the first two.

Such cases of families losing loved ones and suddenly finding them again have happened several times in recent times in Yinjing City.

Some were in the general’s house. Some were in the homes of court officials, and some were in the mansion of a merchant owner. There were all kinds of rumors, and the rumors went around without knowing whether they were true or not.

After Chu Fan had beaten He Yunxiao, he was naturally greeted warmly by Yang Qi and the others.

“Brother Chu!” Tie Weiqi said enthusiastically, “Brother Chu will soon be ranked on the Qingyun Ranking after this battle.”

Liu Feiyun also smiled, “I reckon that Brother Chu will be able to rank higher than Brother Tie when he first ascends the Qingyun Ranking this time.”

Tie Weiqi didn’t mind, being compared to a ninth ranked martial artist younger than himself was not something to be ashamed of.

He said happily, “Haha, when Brother Chu reaches my age, it is not impossible that he will have already stepped into the Grandmaster.”

Even with their mental preparation, the crowd was still appalled.

Tie Weiqi was twenty-four years old, while Chu Fan was twenty years old. If Chu Fan had stepped into a Grandmaster at twenty-four, what concept would that be?

One must know that Yang Zhe, who was the champion of both literature and martial arts two years ago and was considered a genius of his generation, was now twenty-three years old and was only stuck at the peak of the ninth rank.

The Ninth Grade to Grandmaster was completely different from the Eighth Grade to Ninth Grade. It was no longer on the same level.

It could be said that the time it took to reach the ninth rank to Grandmaster was probably more than even the time it took to reach the first rank to the ninth rank.

If Chu Fan could really step into the Grandmaster realm so soon, then, did it mean that, in his lifetime, Chu Fan had the possibility of striking above the Grandmaster and achieving Grand Grandmaster realm?

The founding divine general of Qi, Zhang Xian, who broke 6,000 armored men with himself, was at the Grandmaster realm.

In today’s world, there is still a small country between the two great powers of Qi and Yan, which has survived not because of the strength of its army, but because of the existence of a patron god at the Grandmaster realm.

When you reach the Grandmaster realm, you can go anywhere in the world.

Even if you have a thousand armies, if you say you want to take your emperor’s head, you can take it.

Therefore, although this small country is small, no one dares to touch it.

No ruler would dare to risk having his head chopped off to attack it.

Looking at the fiery eyes of several people, Chu Xiaoxiao promptly diverted the crowd’s desire to bend over backwards.

As the person who knew Chu Fan best, she naturally understood that Chu Fan was certainly more than this current point of ninth-grade strength, and that Chu Fan’s current limit should be from the peak of ninth grade to half-step Grandmaster.

But these were things she was not willing to say.

For no other reason, if Chu Fan had the strength of a half-step Grandmaster at the age of twenty, then him raising above a was basically a sure thing.

This meant that even the eldest princess, Meng Qingqian, would have to use son-in-law recruitment to befriend Chu Fan.

Other women or forces, that’s troublesome.

Chu Xiaoxiao was most afraid of a bad woman seducing her brother, so she said with a playful smile, “Brother happened to get a great spiritual tonic a few days ago and luckily stepped into the ninth grade realm. In fact, he is still far from the real ninth grade. As you saw, it took dozens of moves to beat He Yunxiao, a seventh-ranked martial artist.”

Only after hearing Chu Xiaoxiao’s explanation did the fiery expressions fade away.

Taking pills to grow in martial arts was something that was frowned upon by true martial artists. This kind of power obtained by fluke was quite a bit different from the strength obtained through hard work.

And once you take pills, it is very difficult to follow up with further growth. Poor Chu Fan’s supreme talent, how could he not think about it?

Tie Weiqi was the highest martial artist in the crowd, and he was also the first one to see that He Yunxiao had the strength of the eighth rank. He saw that Chu Fan’s internal strength was solid and did not look like he was taking pills, but instead of refuting Chu Xiaoxiao, he was the first to jump out and round up for Chu Fan.

“Haha, let’s not talk about that. Brother Chu, you will definitely have to enter the next round of ‘Falling Flowers’ this time.”

Chu Fan did not know why Chu Xiaoxiao was saying this, but he was used to listening to his sister, so he did not retort and took the opportunity to talk to Tie Weiqi about the ‘Falling Flowers’.

“Brother Tie, what kind of flowers do you mean by ‘falling flowers’?”

Tie Weiqi laughed and said, “It seems to be the first time for Brother Chu to play. Brother Shen, you are a regular visitor, so you can tell Brother Chu about it.”

When Shen Kuan heard that Chu Fan’s cultivation was obtained by taking pills, he felt more and more regretful about his offense against He Yunxiao.

He forced a smile on his face and said, “We in the Great Qi emphasise both literature and martial arts, the martial arts competition has already been held, and the flower drop is a competition for literary skills. The ten winners of the previous round are arranged in a circle from most to least according to the number of gold flowers they have won. Then Du Huaqui would say a word, or an image. The rest of the group will then say a relevant idiom, poem, essay or quote from a famous person based on that image. The person with the most golden flowers speaks first, the person with the least speaks last, and no repetition is allowed. Those who cannot say it will be eliminated.”

Chu Fan nodded and said, “What if someone writes a poem on the spot?”

Shen Kuan said, “Naturally, you can. But the flower leaders of Spring Breeze Mansion are not simple in their poetic attainments, so if they make things up and are seen at a glance, it won’t count.”

Chu Fan was not good at poetry. He could only use his sword. So, Chu Fan asked tentatively, “Brother Shen, if you can’t answer it yourself, can you ask someone else to help you?”

Shen Kuan said, “Yes, for one hundred silver taels a time.”

The faces of Liu Feiyun, Tie Weiqi and the others remained unchanged, obviously knowing about it beforehand. But Yang Qi, who was at the same table, could not sit still.

Although his surname was Yang, he was not the Yang of the Yang clan of Hexi, but the son of a humble family.

His ancestors had a few small plots of land, which had supported him in his examinations for the scholarship.

One hundred taels of silver, that was two years of expenses for a large family.

Put in Yinjing, it was simply to show up in front of the flower girl more often.

Obviously, by this time, those who could compete for the first benefactor of the flower girl were either those with real talent or those who were rich beyond their means.

It was no longer a game that ordinary people could play.

Of course, Chu Fan did not have that much silver to spend. In fact, he and Chu Xiaoxiao had spent quite a lot of money in Yinjing in the past few days. Just this meal at the Spring Breeze Restaurant, tonight, they had to spend nearly half of their savings.

To obtain clues about Chu Tianzhu, he had sort of sunk his teeth into it.

“Brother Shen, can I go into the top ten first and then have Xiaoxiao answer the questions for me?”

Shen Kuan said, “Yes, but if Miss Xiao Xiao wins, then only Miss Xiao Xiao can go and have a long talk with Du Huakui.”

Anyway, it was for the clues of Chu Tianzhu. Whoever went to talk was the same.

Chu Fan said, “So be it, no harm in that.”

The crowd looked at me. I looked at you, and they all looked at Chu Xiaoxiao and Chu Fan.

No one said anything, but they were all thinking the same thing.

Could it be that this brother and sister, the male did not like the female and the female did not like the male?

Neither Chu Fan nor Chu Xiaoxiao could read the crowd’s minds; the two of them, one dedicated to sword training, the other unexpectedly pure in a place like this.

But there was no time for the crowd to think about it, as their thoughts were interrupted.

For there was an uninvited guest in the Spring Breeze House who was out of place.

This person appeared at the entrance to the lobby of Spring Breeze House, and stood arrogantly in the middle of the main door, dressed in brocade and holding a folding fan. The jade pendant, hairstyle and expensive items, and the whole outfit was screaming he’s either unreasonably rich or noble.

“Where is He Yunxiao? Tell him to get, ahem, come out and meet this young master.”

Li Jin had already reached the battlefield.
