and squishy landed right on his face."What is this"Ye Bufan moved his stiff limbs and reached out to take the thing into his hand. He opened his eyes and saw that it was a bright, colorful hydrangea."...Li Dao-ran watched secretly from the side, and at this moment he understood that this must be Ye Bufan's arrangement. I have to say, this counterattack was truly brilliant.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with doing so. Since the other party wasn't honorable and played dirty by making false accusations first, then it couldn't be blamed on his side for throwing mud back.

Seeing the frowns deepening on the faces of several high-ranking elders, Zheng Yiheng panicked and quickly explained again: "Elders, they are really lying. These people are all hiding their cultivation levels; they aren't Nascent Soul cultivators at all."

They are so powerful, how could we possibly have any inappropriate thoughts…"

This was a flimsy excuse he had grabbed on the spot. Nalan Yu Jia's cultivation was so powerful, if he dared to try and assault her again, he would be utterly insane—it simply wouldn't make sense.

Ye Bufan sneered and said, "How do you know they're hiding their cultivation"

Of course I do.

Zheng Yiheng shouted, "Beat me like this, do you dare say they aren't hiding their cultivation"

"That means you didn't know what you were getting into before you made a move," Ye Bufan said. "That means you had ulterior motives beforehand and only realized our team members had hidden their cultivation after being taught a lesson."

"I... no, it's not like that, I never meant to force them..."

Zheng Yiheng was becoming increasingly flustered, even he felt a sense of getting darker the more he tried to erase it.

Hu Yaya continued to say pitifully, "Master Attendant, this person is not just threatening with force. "

He also told us that his father is the dean of the Haofeng Empire's Lingxiao Academy, and his uncle is the great elder of the Tianluo Prefecture branch.

As long as the young ladies comply with his requests, we are sure to achieve excellent results in this competition...

"Great job! Definitely give it a thumbs up!"

Hearing this, Ye Bufan couldn't help but want to rush up and give Hu YaoYao a thumbs-up for her performance.

So far, Hu Yaoyao has not only completed her assigned tasks flawlessly but also demonstrated remarkable overachievement.

"What was just said is truly excellent. It directly places the blame of manipulating the game on the Zheng family. Isn't this tantamount to denying the impartiality of the Four Arbiters"

Zheng Yiheng also realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly said.

"I didn't, I didn't say it, I really didn't say it..."

The more he panicked, the more helpless he became. His arguments grew weaker and less effective.

Zheng Wei's face grew increasingly grim. As the situation unfolded, he realized he had completely underestimated his opponent; their counterattack was simply too powerful.

The four women's pleas on the other side were far more moving than ours, and they didn't stop there. They kept putting labels on us and slandering us.

In contrast, Zheng Yiheng's debating skills were far inferior. He was no match for the woman before him. Not only was he ineffective, but he kept handing her opportunities to strike back.

Originally, I wanted to use the four stewards' hands to drive the Tianfeng Empire out of the imperial city. Now it seems that this goal is unattainable, and instead has caused dissatisfaction among them.

Sure enough, Zhang He cast a dark and gloomy look over: "Elder Zheng, is there anything else you have to say"

Compared to Zheng Yiheng, Zheng Wei is much more experienced.

"Master, it's obvious they're lying. They stole my nephew's possessions and then turned around and falsely accused him."

In fact, deep down he knew he wasn't telling the truth, and the other person was lying too. It was just that they were better at it than him.

But once someone has firmly held onto their previous statement, both parties are telling lies, and neither can produce any evidence. Even if the High Overseer wanted to show favoritism, they wouldn't be able to.

As expected, Zhang He and the others all frowned. Deep down, he believed more in what Hu Yaoyao and the other girls had said.

But as Grand Master, every decision I make must be convincing. Now that both sides are adamant, it's clear we can't reach a final conclusion.

Li Dao-ran broke into a radiant smile. Though it was still uncertain whether he could ultimately punish the Zheng family, seeing Bao's arrival was enough for now.

Zhang He turned his gaze back to the Tianfeng Empire. "Do you have any evidence"

Hu Yaoyao said, "These clothes are the evidence they left behind."

Zheng Yiheng calmed himself and shouted: "Nonsense, this is clearly you stealing my loot."

Hu Yaya ignored him and said again, "Elder, all of us sisters are victims, and we are also witnesses."

"This is unacceptable."

Zhang He shook his head. Whether it was the Tianfeng Empire or the Haofeng Empire, testimony from one's own people to another wouldn't be convincing.

At this moment, Zheng Wei stepped forward and looked at the people from the Tianfeng Empire, saying: “I just want to ask you, was my nephew injured by you Do you dare to admit it”

"What's there to be afraid of"t a pile of walking celestial crystals.At that moment, a deafening roar echoed in their ears, followed by rolling thunder. Countless lightning bolts, like serpents emerging from hell, writhed incessan...
