The first-generation steward of the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, Hong Qi, personally descended to recruit Su Chen. Despite the immense honor and the shocked reactions of many, Su Chen remained silent. After receiving a private message from Feng Yinqing, Su Chen ultimately refused the prestigious invitation, stunning everyone present.

Everyone fell silent.

If the previous response might have been a slip of the tongue from Su Chen, then this response leaves no room for excuses!

Su Chen had outright refused!

He rejected the invitation of a super old monster at the Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm, and the invitation from the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy of the Four Great Academies in the Grand Cosmos World.

Thousands of martial cultivators from the Tianheng Holy Realm watching had already fainted.

It was terrifying.

This was a complete madman.

In the distance, Shee Tianshi was holding his head, already regretting inviting Su Chen as his son-in-law.

He wished he could kneel and beg Su Chen to leave the Tianheng Holy Realm.

This great deity was too much to handle.

The temple is too small!

He’s now openly antagonizing a Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm martial cultivator... and confronting the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, making him want to vomit blood!

Su Chen was the only person he’d ever met who seemed eager for death, consistently pushing the limits of recklessness.

Feng Yinqing’s perfectly beautiful face trembled slightly.

She had given Su Chen a sound transmission, suggesting he refuse the entry to the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, yet the way Su Chen refused...

Was too harsh!!!

Too direct?

Not giving Fang Yinxia any face, heavily injuring Fang Yinxia, had already frightened her. But after all, Fang Yinxia was just a Fourth Generation Elder, merely a ninth-layer Domain Lord Realm martial cultivator, and most importantly, Fang Yinxia belonged to her Master’s faction. She could mediate. Even if Fang Yinxia resented Su Chen, with her influence, Fang Yinxia wouldn’t dare to use the massive power of the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy to take revenge on Su Chen. At most, she’d retaliate personally, and Su Chen wasn’t afraid of that.

But Hong Qi in front of him was completely different!

Not to mention Hong Qi’s power, which utterly overwhelmed Fang Yinxia by who knows how many times over.

What Hong Qi represented... he represented the face of the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy itself, a senior steward, considered high-level, with real authority within the Academy.

Moreover, behind Hong Qi seemed to be the shadow of Huang Zhi, who was unfathomably deep, akin to an endless abyss. It’s terrifying, as Huang Zhi seemed to be able to influence the entire decision-making direction of the Holy Land Martial Arts Academy. Just thinking about it is hair-raising.

If Hong Qi was indeed a person of Huang Zhi, Su Chen’s strong defiance would certainly catch Huang Zhi’s attention. It would be absolutely bad for Su Chen to enter Huang Zhi’s sights at this stage.

From Feng Yinqing’s perspective, at this stage, she planned to mediate with Huang Zhi, to buy time for Su Chen. With Su Chen’s martial arts talent, in just ten or thirty short years, perhaps he’d be able to go head-to-head with Huang Zhi.

But Su Chen was a pure madman!!! A stubborn mule!

Even if he’s refusing entry to the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, he needed to provide a reason!

She had just given Su Chen a sound transmission, instructing him to decline Hong Qi with a reason, like: I’m too young and wish to continue training for now, I will definitely join the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy in the future. Or: I have relatives I must find, or enemies I need to deal with, etc.

Anyway, she meant to find a suitable, less direct reason to reject Hong Qi’s invitation.

It should go without saying that Su Chen should have understood this.

That’s why she didn’t spell it out.

She thought Su Chen would come up with a credible and appropriate reason himself. But she never imagined Su Chen would just nakedly refuse, without any tact or disguise, publicly giving Hong Qi no face at all.

In doing so, he left Hong Qi in an utterly awkward position!

Isn’t this essentially seeking death?

In truth, Su Chen knew that such a firm refusal was sure to offend Hong Qi.

But if he didn’t do it, his thoughts wouldn’t be clear.

This Hong Qi was too aloof.

His invitation felt like an order.

If Hong Qi had been a bit more gracious, Su Chen would naturally have reciprocated.

But Hong Qi’s high and mighty attitude, indisputable, proclaiming how fortunate someone was to be noticed by the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, if Su Chen didn’t stand his ground, his thoughts wouldn’t be clear.

As for offending Hong Qi and the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy, it doesn’t matter.

If martial cultivators feared this and that, what was the point of martial arts cultivation?

The path of martial arts cultivation is always against the heavens; who knows which day will be their end.

"Good, very good, truly excellent..." The next moment, Hong Qi finally laughed after a moment’s consideration, an angry smile. He couldn’t recall the last time he was so affronted.

A kid from the Domain Lord Realm First Layer.

In his eyes, smaller than an ant by ten thousand times, akin to dust!

Let’s put it this way.

Having been entrenched in the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy for years, the weakest martial cultivators he encountered were around the Fifth Level of the Domain Lord Realm.

Domain Lord Realm First Layer, what nonsense is that?

Someone he could easily crush one thousand or ten thousand times over with a mere release of Qi dared to reject his invitation? Refused his favor?

Very well.

Hong Qi squinted his eyes, and a sullen look began to settle in them.

"Senior Hong, Su Chen is a martial cultivator from the Minor Thousand Worlds, newly arrived in the Grand Cosmos World, so there are many things he doesn’t understand. Please, Senior Hong, on behalf of Miss Feng..." Feng Yinqing spoke up.

She had no choice but to open her mouth.

She stepped up, standing in front of Su Chen.

Completely shielding Su Chen.

A Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm was absolutely not something Su Chen could face!!!

In fact, even she, even with her seal opened, would most likely still lose to Hong Qi now.

A Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm, even just at the half-step, has touched on a sliver of the Imperial Extreme Realm, and that’s utterly terrifying, incomparable to any Domain Lord Realm.

In Feng Yinqing’s eyes, Su Chen was too young and hadn’t encountered true powerful figures or major forces, so naturally wouldn’t understand the terror of a Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm.

But she knew very well.

One who is at the Half-Step Imperial Extreme Realm can easily crush ten Ninth-Layer Domain Lord Realms without any issue.

"Miss Feng’s face, the old me will definitely give due consideration." Hong Qi said, and the gloom at the corners of his eyes seemed to vanish.

He would indeed give face to Feng Yinqing.

Because Feng Yinqing was Huang Zhi’s fiancée, the master’s fiancée.

His master, is Huang Zhi.

In the future, Feng Yinqing would be the Main Mother.

So face, must be given.

Moreover, Hong Qi himself, having lived over eighty million years, an old monster among old monsters, if he were to personally take action against Su Chen, it would be a disgrace, an embarrassment to the Saint Emperor Martial Arts Academy.

Therefore, no matter how much he wanted to crush Su Chen.

He couldn’t possibly act personally.

"Thank you." Feng Yinqing breathed a sigh of relief.

While Su Chen just narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing, he saw clearly that the matter wasn’t going to be resolved so simply.

Even with Feng Yinqing’s intervention, it was no use.
