Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System

As Prince Tian mentioned Han Cai, he cursed the prince in his head.

Nonetheless, Han Cai stood from his seat and bowed politely, unleashing his charm to full level fifty charm to maximize the impact of what He was about to say.

He spoke, "I do not deserve praise from the prince. This Junior has weak cultivation and my knowledge of art is very limited. If someone should be praised, it should be Senior Li Shuo. I aspire to become as strong as Senior in the future." Han Cai praised the strength of the Li family's young master for a while.

Hearing Han Cai's words, the Li family's brother and sister smiled, but other major family and sect members frowned. They had all participated in showcasing their talents at the banquet, yet Han Cai praised only the Li family's young master.

Han Cai made his words sound very objective and without any bias as if he were an outsider and not a participant in the tournament. It sounded like most of the audience members who had witnessed their talents yesterday were most impressed by the Li family's young master. He was merely informing them of the facts.

Due to Han Cai's bewitching charm, his comments had a greater impact, and each young master became agitated.

Prince Wei, in particular, felt most irritated. As a member of the royal family and a participant on behalf of the Skyfall Sect, he was supposed to be the most appreciated talent, wowing everyone.

Instead, Han Cai's words put Li Shuo in the spotlight, stealing the attention that should have been rightfully his.

The atmosphere in the pavilion shifted as everyone's eyes moved between Han Cai and Prince Wei. The tension was palpable, and the air was thick with anticipation as if waiting for a spark to ignite the brewing conflict.

But Han Cai, ever the skilled poet, remained calm and composed as if he had merely stated an innocent observation. He maintained a neutral expression, not giving any indication that his words were meant to provoke anyone.

After the food tasting was done, Han Cai excused himself from the pavilion and took a leisurely stroll around the garden. A few young masters tried to disturb his stroll, but his bodyguards, the Wang and Cui family young masters, stopped them and sent them on their way.

However, the peaceful stroll was interrupted when a new situation arose. Feng Xiang, a core disciple of the Divine Wind Sect, couldn't take it anymore when Han Cai praised the young master of the Li family. Out of all the talented participants, he was the least talked about during the talent show at the banquet.

He loudly started talking with other young masters, claiming that having strength was no talent and that one simply needed to eat a lot of meat. He continued to insult the talent of the young master of the Li family, calling his strength crude and claiming that he lacked any artistic or intellectual prowess.

Hearing all these words regarding his talent, Li Shuo couldn't take it and loudly challenged Feng Xiang, "If you really think strength is no talent, then why don't we battle it out and see what talent is better?"

Feng Xiang fell silent, knowing that he couldn't defeat Li Shuo. However, Prince Wei, who was nearby, stepped forward and said, "Yes, I will take your challenge. Let us see if you are the most talented one here."

Prince Tian, as a fourth prince, had no power to stop the battle between Prince Wei and Li Shuo. He could only sigh as a crowd gathered around them, some cheering for Li Shuo and others for Prince Wei.

The battle between Prince Wei and Li Shuo was a sight to behold. Both were elite cultivators from their respective factions, and their techniques reflected their prowess. Although they were both at the core formation stage, the battle was not overly destructive, as they both aimed to prove their strength without causing excessive damage to their surroundings.

The two fighters exchanged blows, with Prince Wei expertly wielding his royal sword, which left streaks of golden light in the air. Li Shuo, on the other hand, relied on his powerful physique and martial arts techniques, delivering devastating punches and kicks that shook the ground beneath them. Their unique abilities were on full display, but neither side managed to gain an advantage over the other.

As the battle continued, an unexpected development took place. While Li Shuo was defending against Prince Wei's relentless assault, a wind blade struck him in the back. The sudden attack came from none other than Feng Xiang, who had been seeking an opportunity to undermine Li Shuo's efforts. The young master of the Li family moaned in pain; although he was powerful, he could not withstand such a surprise attack unscathed.

Seeing her brother hurt by a sneak attack, Li Xin lost her cool and charged at Feng Xiang with fury in her eyes. Her movements were swift and precise, and Feng Xiang found himself unable to defend against her relentless barrage.

It appeared as though Li Xin might kill him then and there, but the young master and young lady of the Zhou family intervened just in time. Having an alliance with the Divine Wind Sect, they could not stand by and watch Feng Xiang, one of their sect's core disciples, perish before them.

With the Zhou family's interference, the situation escalated even further. The core disciples of the Frost Peak Sect, allied with the Li family, joined the fray to support both Li Xin and Li Shuo. As they bolstered Li Shuo's defenses against Prince Wei, the young masters of the Yang family, who had a history of doing the royal family's dirty work, leaped into the battle to back up Prince Wei.

Yang family had a lot of enemies since they did dirty work for the royal family over the years. They had offended many families and sects. The entrance of the Yang family's young masters was met with disdain by many other young cultivators from various families and sects.
