Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

The number one Jade Token meant that it was now Ye Feng's turn to lead off the nine consecutive battles.

Ye Feng raised an eyebrow. Being the first to fight wasn't really an issue, but it tended to attract everyone's attention. As the first to enter the ring and also the first to stand on the platform, he needed to stand there and fight continuously for nine matches, which was not conducive to hiding his strength.

While the opponents would keep changing, he had to remain in the ring, so his subsequent opponents would be prepared for him and on guard against him.

Of course, being first wasn't entirely without benefits. If he challenged and defeated the strongest among them, those who knew they lacked the strength would likely give up directly. That is unless they were unwise enough to insist on fighting him.

By now, many people had noticed the number on the Jade Token in Ye Feng's hand, and their gazes were filled with intrigue.

Atop the Xuanyuan Hall platform, Sausage Sister raised her eyebrows and spoke, "Ye Feng is actually the first to fight; that's not necessarily a good thing."

Long Nannan, who was beside her, didn't immediately comprehend and asked out of curiosity, "Is there something unsuitable about Little Martial Uncle fighting first? Isn't it better to finish early and rest early?"

Sausage Sister nodded in agreement, not denying it, but explained, "Indeed, finishing early means resting early, but Ye Feng, being the first to fight, has to go through nine continuous battles. Showing his hand too much makes it easy for subsequent opponents to study him, which is definitely disadvantageous for Ye Feng's score."

When a powerhouse fights frequently, they are definitely subject to analysis. Once the opponents have figured out the powerhouse's capabilities and prepared their strategies, it generally puts Ye Feng at a disadvantage.

However, Ye Feng on the platform didn't show much reaction at the moment. Instead, he raised his Jade Token number for everyone to see.

Soon, all ten Jade Tokens were drawn.

The First Hall Master glanced at the tokens in the hands of the ten strong contestants below, nodded slightly, memorized everyone's aura, and then announced, "The first challenger, Ye Feng of Xuanyuan Hall, may choose any of the other nine platforms for combat."

After speaking, the First Hall Master flew back to the high platform of Xuanyuan Hall, looking down at the platforms below.

All eyes were now focusing on Ye Feng. During the scramble for the platform, Ye Feng's performance had truly shocked everyone—a single punch had sent Yaji from the Vampire Divine Court flying off the platform, without any fancy tricks, securing a straightforward and tidy victory.

Everyone now knew that Ye Feng, the Northern Border King from Xuanyuan Hall, was likewise a top contender, simply overlooked by everyone at the start. Having just defeated Yaji, and now being the first to fight in nine consecutive battles, he naturally became the center of attention.

"Who do you think the Northern Border King Ye Feng will choose first?"

"You'd always pick the softest persimmon to squeeze. Winning each match gets you a point; the Northern Border King Ye Feng isn't foolish. He'll certainly secure the points he can take first, then deal with the tough nuts to crack."

"Then he's likely to start by challenging Savis on the number eight platform. It seems Savis hasn't shown much progress in the last three years, and his recent victory over the Vampire Divine Court contender seemed somewhat strained."

Many people now looked towards Savis, who was donning a cloak on the number eight platform. Savis wasn't deaf; he clearly heard what everyone was saying, and a hint of anger was already flickering in his eyes.

Feeling underestimated by the crowd, how could he not be angry?

But he was also very aware that among the ten on the platform, in terms of Realm, he was in fact the lowest, a newly-advanced Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm. In terms of strength, he indeed might be at the very bottom. Still, being looked down upon like this was quite irritating.

His gaze shifted to Ye Feng on the number three platform, his eyes darkening, "Ye Feng, if you really pick me first, even if you win, I won't make it easy for you!"

Savis muttered coldly to himself. He had also witnessed Ye Feng's strike. He knew that if he really faced Ye Feng, he would definitely not be his match!

Xiao Rulong on platforms nine and ten was also whispering to each other.

"Didn't expect Ye Feng to actually draw the number one spot. Xiao Chubby, should we take action when we encounter this guy?"

Chi Jark looked towards Xiao Rulong, wanting to see how Xiao Rulong would decide.

"Isn't it obvious? We must concede directly. There's no need for us to reveal too much of our strength, just let Ye Feng have the points."

"Besides, do you really think you can take on that freak who can contend with the Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm? You must think you're on par with them now," Xiao Rulong said, rolling his eyes at Chi Jark, unmasking his disdain.

Chi Jark felt helpless at Xiao Rulong's merciless hit. Xiao Chubby was right. Ye Feng was the one who slaughtered the newly-ascended Sword Saint of the Western Palace from the Sword Saint Palace. Although he ultimately used the Heaven Guard Monument to do away with the Sword Saint, he was still able to confront the Sword Saint directly and used the monument because he had no other choice to prevent the enemy from fleeing.

He would surely not be a match, and would probably be taken down within a few moves by Ye Feng, so it might be better to directly gift points and conserve strength for scoring later.

Chi Jark said nothing more, and at this moment, Ye Feng had already risen from the third arena, with everyone's attention on his actions, curious as to which arena he would choose and which opponent he would start fighting with.

Would it be Savis?

Most people thought Ye Feng would start by picking off the weaker ones for points, but clearly, Ye Feng disappointed them.

Ye Feng, having risen from the third arena, streaked like a shadow straight to the first arena. With a step, he directly boarded the first arena!

On the first arena, Qingya's eyes instantly burst with divine light, staring at Ye Feng who had just arrived, full of surprise.

Wow!

The audience in the stands were also staring, eyes wide with disbelief at the scene unfolding before them. Ye Feng had actually chosen Qingya from the Yin-Yang Temple of the number one arena!?

"Is this Northern Border King Ye Feng so ruthless that he goes straight for Qingya from the Yin-Yang Temple, the strongest contender from the last talent list, right from the start?"

The strong individual who had guessed Ye Feng would go for Savis was dumbfounded, saying so with eyes so wide they seemed almost about to fall out.

"He really stepped onto the arena, really going to challenge Qingya of the Yin-Yang Temple, this is madness. If he can't beat Qingya and gets severely injured, it'll probably be hard to score in the subsequent fights."

Someone said, raising an eyebrow, and many nodded in agreement. In a points match, the majority would start by challenging weaker opponents to score points, rarely ever starting off by challenging the strongest.

Not to mention whether one is a match for the opponent, battling the strongest can easily result in serious injuries, and despite there being rest time during the fight, it is not very long. If seriously injured, recovery would not be possible in a short span, greatly affecting the following battles.

Generally, challengers would start by targeting weaker ones as a means to conserve their strength.

Yet Ye Feng did not do so, directly challenging Qingya whom no one dared to challenge even during the arena seizing because everyone knows that Qingya ranked first on the previous talent list, possessing extremely formidable strength. No one would seek their own downfall by choosing to duel with Qingya during arena seizing.

Not only was the audience in shock, but the other eight strong individuals on the stages were also each raising their eyebrows, looking towards the first arena.

"What's going on with Ye Feng, why has this guy directly targeted Qingya!?"

Chi Jark's face showed a blank expression as he communicated telepathically to Xiao Rulong.

Xiao Rulong also wore a look of shock, but quickly, he plunged into thought, replying to Chi Jark a moment later: "I think I might have figured out Ye Feng's plan. He wants to establish his might by directly challenging a strong opponent like Qingya!"

"Once Qingya is defeated by him, the remainder of the strong individuals will definitely become wary, and most likely, they'll choose to surrender without fighting Ye Feng."

"However, the current exact strength of Qingya is still unclear, I only feel that this person is quite mysterious, and I don't know what the outcome will be."

Xiao Rulong said with a serious face. Based on his feeling, he could sense that Yin-Yang Temple Qingya held strength that certainly wasn't simple; his aura was very dominant. With his and Chi Jark's abilities, they were probably not his match, and the same went for Fengning.

Having already witnessed Fengning's move just now, they believed that these two must be the strongest ones on the stage.

At this moment, his heart was also anxious for Ye Feng, but there was nothing to be done. Ye Feng had already stood on the first arena, and the fight was about to start. There was nothing to do but wait for the results.

On the first arena, Ye Feng stood opposite Qingya, his expression indifferent.

Qingya, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, had also stood up by now. His gaze was ice cold as he watched Ye Feng, his soft voice asserting, "You're not my opponent. I can give you a chance. Admit defeat and roll down."

Qingya's tone was arrogantly cold, and although he had seen Ye Feng in action, he still didn't take him seriously. Ye Feng was too young and a newcomer who had just entered the Outer Battlefield. How could he possibly be his match?

Hearing Qingya's words, Ye Feng grinned and laughed, "You are quite arrogant, to know before even fighting that I'm not your match. You people from Fusang Kingdom really all have the same attitude, small capabilities but big words."

Qingya's eyes turned icy in an instant, his tone icy, "Very well, you have successfully angered me. Northern Border King Ye Feng, I'll show you the consequences of provoking me!"

Qingya's face turned icy, and the aura about him erupted, causing the arena underneath to tremble at that moment.
