A Gentleman Doesn't Use Poison, Only Aphrodisiacs

"This goddess is so angry!"

Seeing Qin Feng watching the young ladies dance, Zi Yuan's face puffed up like a steamed bun on the spot.

And Little White, that rabbit, after receiving two carrots from Qin Feng, happily danced along with the young ladies. Holding the carrots, wagging its little tail, and shaking its rabbit ears, it was truly a case of 'like master, like rabbit.'

"Could this child have fallen for Qin Feng!?"

Moon God appeared beside Zi Yuan, looking at her with some worry.

Before, when Qin Feng was young, she hadn't paid much attention, only thinking Zi Yuan liked this little brother. But now, it seemed she liked this little brother. ??

She had never doubted Qin Feng's talent and firmly believed Qin Feng could bring supreme glory to Moon God Palace, but she couldn't agree with Qin Feng's character.

Someone who dared to dig out their own brother's supreme bone for power, how good could their character be? They were truly not a suitable match.

At this moment--

In the palace of the Six Paths Imperial Sovereign of the Yin Moon Dynasty.

Princess Nanfeng specially came to pay her respects to the Six Paths Imperial Sovereign, wanting to participate in the Yin Moon Dynasty's Death Elimination Tournament.

After witnessing Qin Feng's terror, she had originally decided against participating in such a life-threatening competition.

But then she thought, if she used the slogan of washing away Great Xia's humiliation and led the charge into the Death Elimination Tournament, the noble prodigies accompanying her would surely follow.

If a few died, it would be enough to meet the quota. If they won, it would wash away the shame and strengthen her position in her father's heart and her influence among the civil and military officials, building momentum for her future ascension to the throne.

She stood to gain whether she won or lost, so why not?

"The Great Xia delegation is going to participate in the Death Elimination Tournament!?"

Upon hearing the news, the Six Paths Imperial Sovereign wasn't particularly surprised.

The Great Xia Royal Family sending the Student of Heaven's Son as a delegation was a way to showcase their strength, a form of flexing their muscles, and participating in the Death Elimination Tournament was the most direct way to do so.

"Alright!"

The Six Paths Imperial Sovereign agreed without hesitation, directly nodding to let them participate.

As the leader of the Yin Moon Dynasty, he had absolute confidence in his own prodigies and wasn't afraid of any challenge. Moreover, he could openly eliminate a few Great Xia Student of Heaven's Son, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Thank you, Imperial Sovereign!"

Both sides smiled happily, cooperating very smoothly.

Meanwhile, the noble prodigies among the Great Xia Student of Heaven's Son had no idea they had already been sold out, still sharpening their knives and preparing to crush Qin Feng.

Soon--

The Yin Moon Dynasty Death Elimination Tournament's

</di>

registration began.

Due to the extremely high mortality rate, participation was voluntary, with no forced registration.

However, even if one registered, it didn't guarantee participation in the Death Elimination Tournament. Before that, they needed to pass a selection match to prove their ability to participate.

The Yin Moon Dynasty sought true prodigies, not hot-blooded cannon fodder.

And because the number of participants was huge every year, the Yin Moon Dynasty divided the competition into tens of thousands of battle zones. Each battle zone would select 10 representatives to participate, and finally, from these over 100,000 participants, 1,000 would be selected through a 'gu-raising' method for focused training.

Prodigies with exceptional abilities even had a chance to be crowned as Yin Moon Dynasty's Holy Son, equivalent to a prince of the Great Xia Royal Family, with the future possibility of inheriting the Imperial Sovereign position of the Yin Moon Dynasty and becoming its de facto ruler.

"Holy Son? How come I, as a Divine Son, feel more noble?!"

Qin Feng couldn't help but mutter, being pulled by Zi Yuan to register.

Even though he was now the Divine Son of Moon God Palace, he had no special privileges and needed to participate in the selection match first to qualify.

Zi Yuan proudly tilted her small head and said, "Of course! In the Yin Moon Dynasty, Moon God is like a guardian deity. The Goddess is the future heir to Moon God, while a Holy Son is merely a prince. How could they be compared to the Divine Son and Goddess of our Moon God Palace?"

"Huh!?"

Qin Feng was completely bewildered, his head full of question marks.

If his status as Divine Son was so noble, why did he need to participate in a death elimination tournament to compete for the position of Holy Son? Wasn't that beneath him?

"What an idiot!"

Zi Yuan peeked at Qin Feng, her small face blushing slightly, and said, "When you become Imperial Sovereign in the future, and I become Moon God, it'll be more convenient for us to talk privately as family."

"I understand now!!"

Little White, sitting on Qin Feng's shoulder, suddenly exclaimed, "This is what you call colluding for evil, going along with the corrupt, and officials protecting each other!"

"What kind of outrageous words are those!"

Zi Yuan rolled her eyes in exasperation, the pink atmosphere thus ruined.

Just then--

A gasp erupted from the registration area, and all eyes turned to Qin Feng.

"Quick, look, it's Qin Feng from Moon God Palace! Is he participating too!?"

"He's only fifteen, isn't that too young!?"

"The Death Elimination Tournament has an age limit of 25. Fifteen is a huge gap."

"I heard there are over a thousand people at the Entry Realm this year. His cultivation of Extraordinary Ninth Layer is nowhere near enough."

"He has no advantage in age or cultivation. He's too impatient."

"He should have waited for the next cycle. He'll be exactly 25 in ten years, and the first place will be his."

"Being young and having low cultivation doesn't mean Qin Feng is weak. Have you forgotten the terror of Half Sword Drawn a few days ago?"

"No weakling gains such fame. He's the number one prodigy of the Archaic Era."

"..."

After seeing Qin Feng register, many people at the scene rushed to register for other battlefields.

His reputation preceded him. Qin Feng's full power was too terrifying. Few people wanted to encounter such a monster in the preliminaries.

Some, however, refused to believe it and wanted to clash directly with Qin Feng.

After all, everyone participating in the Death Elimination Tournament was a young person under 25. Their youthful, hot-blooded spirit gave them the illusion that they were the greatest, that their fate was in their own hands.

Only when one reaches middle age does one realize they were just filling space in the world.

Clang!!

A crisp gong sound echoed as Princess Nanfeng's luxurious carriage slowly arrived, accompanied by over a dozen Student of Heaven's Son from the delegation. However, Zhu Tou was nowhere to be seen.

"What are they doing here!?" Zi Yuan asked suspiciously.

"We're here to register!"

Princess Nanfeng was not wearing her usual elegant attire today, but a practical martial arts uniform.

"We're here to wash away our shame!"

The noble family prodigies shouted in unison, their eyes unable to hide their murderous intent.

Especially when they thought of Zhu Tou's state after being humiliated, their hatred for Qin Feng surged. The noble families rose and fell together.

"Being used as a pawn and still acting tough!"

Qin Feng couldn't help but scoff inwardly, realizing these noble family prodigies were still too young.

Fooled by a few words from Princess Nanfeng, they rushed in with hot blood. Didn't they know Princess Nanfeng could forfeit the competition at any time!?

However, seeing that Fang Chang was also participating, he immediately felt energized.

Clang!!

A deafening gong sound silenced the scene instantly.

"Registration is closed. The preliminaries officially begin!"

A stern-faced man in black floated in the air. He formed a hand seal and pressed it down onto the ground below.

Rumble!!

The earth began to shake violently as hundreds of arenas slowly rose from beneath the ground.

"The preliminaries have begun!"

Countless cultivators rushed from all directions to spectate. Some hovered in the air on flying swords, others landed on the surrounding rooftops and trees, and some used spells to broadcast the scene to places thousands of miles away, like a live stream.

Soon--

Thousands of examinees entered the arena area and began drawing numbers to be assigned to their respective stages.

"Only this few people!?"

The man in black frowned, his gaze falling on Qin Feng, who was standing on an arena.

In previous years, the preliminaries in this region would attract tens of thousands of participants. However, due to the participation of Qin Feng and Great Xia's Student of Heaven's Son, the number of participants was less than a tenth of previous years.

After all, Great Xia's Student of Heaven's Son were all noble family prodigies with unquestionable strength.

Even those who stayed were gambling on luck, hoping not to encounter Qin Feng or Student of Heaven's Son. If they did, they would decisively choose to forfeit.

"I forfeit!!"

Qin Feng was utterly speechless. This was the eighth time.

Others fought back and forth, but he hadn't even moved and had already won eight matches, directly entering the top sixteen.

It seemed as if heaven had heard Qin Feng's prayer. In his ninth match, he encountered a young man named Wang Peng.

He was a Student of Heaven's Son from Great Xia. Unlike others, he didn't choose to forfeit. As soon as the match started, he lunged at Qin Feng with an iron rod.

"As expected of a Student of Heaven's Son! This iron rod is so fierce!"

Qin Feng could clearly feel the power behind the strike. He dodged with ghost-like speed, not forgetting to throw a few hidden silver needles at his opponent.

"Despicable!"

Wang Peng's eyes were filled with disdain. He hadn't expected Qin Feng to use hidden weapons.

With no time to dodge, he raised his arm to block. Several silver needles pierced his arm, but they didn't cause much damage.

"You lost!" Qin Feng said calmly.

"Lost? You poisoned me!!"

Wang Peng's face changed, and he quickly pulled out the silver needles to check.

"I'm a proper gentleman, how could I possibly poison you!" Qin Feng said with a straight face.

"Whoosh..."

Wang Peng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't poison, it was fine.

But Qin Feng's next sentence made him so angry he wanted to curse his mother, "I gave you an aphrodisiac, it'd make a sow go wild..."
