Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 687 - 0689: Ferocious Dogs Fear Vicious People

Upon hearing these words, Li Xiaoran immediately stood up and said to the other side, "I have nothing to do with you, and I will not become your sister. What Chu Feng and I are doing here is none of your business."

Chu Feng quickly calmed down the agitated Li Xiaoran and said, "It’s okay, no need to get so worked up. His goal is to make you angry. If you get angry, he achieves his purpose."

Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Li Xiaoran complained, "Then why didn’t you remind me?"

Chu Feng said, "If you don’t lash out, our relationship will become even murkier, won’t it? That would affect you even more later on. And besides, a vicious dog fears a wicked person."

Li Xiaoran’s expression was initially good upon listening to Chu Feng’s words, but then she heard Chu Feng calling her a wicked person.

She was so angry that she raised her fist and punched Chu Feng.

"For calling me wicked! You’re the wicked one here," Li Xiaoran huffed.

After a while of hitting, Li Xiaoran suddenly remembered something and said, "Why didn’t you stop me? Now all my image is gone."

Chu Feng took out a remote control and said, "I found this. It can raise a glass pane between the two hollow floors, and the glass is very soundproof. Neither side can hear the other."

Li Xiaoran looked at Chu Feng with her tiny teeth grinding audibly.

On the other side, where the sound was already blocked, Qi Wen, Young Master Qi, also had a somewhat playful look on his face.

Because he really hadn’t expected to encounter Chu Feng in such a place.

Originally, he thought the time he would meet Chu Feng should have been postponed a bit further.

But instead, he was now facing Chu Feng directly.

"Young master, I’ve confirmed the situation in that private room. It turns out it was an invitation prepared for Elder Huang, but somehow it ended up in Chu Feng’s hands," said the Qi family’s butler.

Qi Wen nodded and said, "Elder Huang was never going to come anyway; sending an invitation was just a show of respect. It’s not unexpected for it to end up with Chu Feng. But this time, I’m afraid it’s going to be a laughingstock." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

The butler asked, "Young master, we haven’t lost any ground, so how come we are the laughingstock?"

Qi Wen, with a hint of scheming, said, "Us meeting has already put us at a disadvantage. I used two expendables to toy with Chu Feng. He even encountered such massive resistance in Dragon Soul without me having to appear. Yet now, Chu Feng is not only still alive but also lively and kicking in front of me. And us? We haven’t gained anything. Isn’t this a loss without getting anything in return?"

The butler said, "But we were going to meet sooner or later anyway. And we did gain something."

Qi Wen said, "It’s true we were destined to meet sooner or later, but meeting later is better than sooner. When a tile collides with porcelain, it’s inherently a loss for us."

The butler said, "But master, you once said that Chu Feng is not a mere tile."

Qi Wen replied softly, "What I say doesn’t matter. It’s what others think. If others think Chu Feng is a tile, then he is a tile. If others think we have lost face, then we have lost it. The most crucial thing is, the opportunity and location of this meeting are very bad."

The sponsor for this Tea Battle was the Qi family, and the venue was also provided by them.

In the eyes of outsiders, Chu Feng was like someone who had approached them. Nothing could be more embarrassing than that.

The butler had nothing to counter with, because that was indeed the truth.

After pausing for a moment, Qi Wen, tapping on the table, said, "Go and ask if Chu Feng is interested in making a bet. Since we’ve already lost face, we must find a way to regain some. Although it’s a bit vulgar to use money to recover face, it’s certainly better than not being able to recover any dignity at all."

The butler hesitated; "But young master, what if Chu Feng doesn’t agree?"

Qi Wen replied confidently, "Don’t worry, he will definitely agree. He’s here to cause trouble; how could he possibly refuse?"

The butler nodded and said, "If that’s the case, we can certainly reclaim our face. The two tea masters involved in the Tea Competition will surely give us some face."

Qi Wen shook his head and said, "No need for special instructions, victory or defeat is a matter of fate. There’s nothing to be concerned about."

Upon hearing this, the butler instantly became anxious and said, "Young master, if that’s the case, we also run the risk of losing."

Qi Wen remarked, "Rigging the match would be a worse loss. Since it’s come to this, we might as well go all in."

The butler suggested, "Young master, how about we bet on the individual competition later on? With you, young master, facing Chu Feng yourself, perhaps we have a better chance of winning."

Qi Wen fell silent for a moment upon hearing the butler’s suggestion and then said, "You’ve spoken a lot of nonsense today, but this is the only point you’ve made."

The butler’s face changed upon hearing Qi Wen’s words, but he still respectfully said, "I apologize, young master."

Qi Wen said, "Birds die for food, and humans die for wealth. The most important thing in following me is loyalty. What others can give you, I can also give. But you’ve disappointed me. After today, you may retire."

The butler’s face turned pale when he heard Qi Wen’s words, but finally, he said, "Thank you, young master."

After the butler left, Qi Wen’s expression changed as well, and he murmured to himself, "Brotherly rivalry within the walls, a tragic tale of human relations. I really wonder if any of my younger brothers have brains at all, only knowing to fight each other at such a time."

Having spoken, Qi Wen closed his eyes.

He was clearly uninterested in the upcoming Tea Battle. He was cultivating his qi, preparing for his Tea Competition with Chu Feng.

After leaving the room, the butler also made his way to Chu Feng’s private room.

Upon entering the room and explaining the purpose of his visit, Chu Feng agreed without a second thought.

"Wait a minute!" Chu Feng called out to the butler just as he was about to leave.

"Is there anything else you’d like to instruct?" asked the butler.

Chu Feng said, "You haven’t mentioned the stakes. How are you going to explain to your master?"

The butler replied, "The young master said since he is the host and Mr. Chu is the guest, no matter how much you put down, the young master is willing to triple it."

Chu Feng, upon hearing the butler’s words, said, "Did your young master really say that?"

The butler nodded and said, "Yes."

Chu Feng said, "Then go back and tell your young master that I’m putting down ten billion. Have him prepare thirty billion."

Hearing Chu Feng’s words, the butler’s eyelids twitched severely.

Ten billion was not a mere hundred dollars.

Although the Qi family was large and wealthy, they definitely would not allow Qi Wen to gamble in such a way.

And based on the butler’s understanding, although the Fengjing Group was wealthy, ten billion was almost equal to the current market value of the entire Fengjing Group. Was Chu Feng planning to bet his entire Fengjing Group?

"Big brother, you’re too cool, simply my idol!" Li Xiaoran’s eyes sparkled as she said, "Brother, to support you, I’ve decided to bet all my pocket money saved over the years—fifty thousand in total—on your win."
