Insufficient balance

  As one fell, a figure flashed onto the stage, and in his eyes looking at Li Yi, there was only a chill.

  When they saw this person, the whole scene was in an uproar. Among the younger generation of the Li family, many people actually thought that only he had the qualifications to be the next master of the house.

  It was Li Yi who saw him and couldn't help but laugh, saying: "Looks like big brother's face is itching again today?"

  As soon as this was said, Li Jue's chest suddenly felt stifled and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He had been defeated by Li Yi last time and had been slapped twice, which had already become the greatest shame of his life. For these two months, no one dared to mention that day's events in front of him. Now that Li Yi brought it up, his originally somewhat handsome face suddenly became extremely ugly.

  Seeing Li Jiao's expression, the four elders frowned slightly. Under such circumstances, he still changed color because of the other party's words, and Li Jiao's temperament seemed to be nothing more than that. Moreover, Li Yi's performance just now had already explained that he was no longer the waste he used to be back then. If Li Jiao still acted like this and lost today, wouldn't it...

  Thinking of this, the four elders became increasingly worried. He glanced at the VIP seat from afar and after receiving some kind of hint, he could only say in a low voice: "Li Yi, Li Jue's challenge, can you accept it?"

  Li Yi nodded slightly without saying yes or no, his eyes scanning the face of this elder cousin in front of him, revealing a hint of a smile.

  Li Yi's nonchalant expression ignited Li Jue's anger even more, he didn't know how much effort it took to suppress the furious feeling, and coldly said: "Li Yi, my younger cousin, don't blame me today! Today I will let everyone know that only I, Li Jue, am qualified to become the next head of the family, and you, Li Yi, three months ago you were a waste, and three months later, you still are!"

  "Idiot..." The thought flashed through Li Yi's mind, and he helplessly rolled his eyes, speechless to the extreme at the sight of his big cousin Li Ju.

  Li Yi's expression caused Li Jiao's facial muscles to twitch, and the killing intent on his body grew stronger, making him look extremely gloomy.

  The two men's movements fell into the eyes of the Fourth Elder, who could only reveal a faint smile and said in a low voice: "So let's begin... Just remember, you two, to stop when it's time!"

  Li Jiao sneered and her eyes had already fallen on Li Yi's body.

  Li Yi simply shook his head and sighed, as if this crucial battle was of no significance to him at all.

  As the four elders retreated, the atmosphere on the stage suddenly became tense.

  Li Yi still stood in place with an expressionless face, but Li Jiao opposite him revealed a solemn expression, slowly circling around Li Yi. Apparently, after being taken advantage of last time, this proud Li Jiao had learned his lesson and did not rashly pounce forward at the beginning.

  Seeing Li Jiao like this, Li Yi slightly shook his head. Apparently, this big brother was not a pure fool, he had probably already thought of a way to deal with his own Wind-Returning Palm in the underground, as long as he didn't take the initiative to attack, then naturally, his own Wind-Returning Palm would also be unable to play a big role.

  Seeing Li Jiao's cautious appearance, Li Yi also let out a slight sigh, and then his right foot tapped slightly, and his body shape had already slanted towards Li Jiao.

  Looking at the ferocious Li Yi, Li Jiao sneered and said in a low voice: "Little turtle egg, I just guessed you wouldn't be able to hold back. That strange fighting technique of yours, I don't believe you can still use it in this situation."

  As they spoke, a ball of fiery red aura burst out from his palm, and as he clenched his fist, the aura began to surge and finally spread out. With Li Jiao's slap, a wave of flames erupted...

  "Shuāi zhǎng!" -> "Smashing Bone Palm!"

  One palm struck towards Li Yi's chest, at this moment, Li Jiao's palm was several times sharper than the previous exchange. Perhaps because he practiced fire attribute Dou Qi Gong Fa, under the surge of Yuan Qi, the surroundings had become scorching hot.

  Li Yi's body suddenly stopped as Li Jiao's palm was about to strike, his body slightly shifted to the left, easily dodging Li Jiao's attack. In the brief moment when they flashed past each other, Li Yi's right hand swung out with practiced ease.

  "Bang—"

  A loud slap! Just like that one two months ago.

  Li Jiao was slapped by this slap, and his eyes turned black in front of him. Fresh blood splashed from the corner of his mouth. His original swift figure, with Li Yi's palm, made a beautiful circle in mid-air, and after landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally sitting down on the edge of the arena.

  Same action, same position, same trick, a red palm print reappeared on Li Jiao's beautiful face, only this time Li Yi's strength was obviously several times greater than before, making Li Jiao's face swell like a steamed bun.

  The four elders' faces twitched and they immediately let out a bitter laugh.

  Li Yi's face was nonchalant, and he lightly swung his hand, smiling faintly: "Two months haven't passed, and big brother's skin is still as thick as ever, hitting me makes my palm feel numb."

  Li Jiao's face turned pale, and after a moment, he stumbled to his feet, squeezing out a few words from between his teeth: "Li Yi...... you're good! ...you're really good!!"

  "I'm doing great," Li Yi nodded, his smile growing even brighter. "But big brother, are you ready to concede or do you want to keep fighting?"

  Li Jue's facial muscles twitched, his teeth clenched together, making a series of "clicking" sounds. Finally, he tapped the tip of his foot and his body shot towards Li Yi at high speed, with three scarlet vortexes already formed on his hands.

  Watching this scene, Li Yi let out a sigh and said lightly: "Is it Seven Revolving Slashes again? Why bother?"

  As the distance between the two narrowed, a cold smile appeared on Li Jiao's face. He simultaneously chopped out with both palms, and the yuanqi vortex formed by his palm hearts instantly spread out. A loud breaking wind sound suddenly erupted, and three vortices shot towards Li Yi at the same time.

  Li Yi narrowed his eyes to gaze at the three oncoming cyclones, then suddenly a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. His two hands simultaneously extended forward slightly, and the black yuanqi between his fingers lightly rippled...

  "Hmph!"

  Three cyclones have been dissolved to one side, Li Yi approached Li Jue who was coming with a strong momentum, and his right hand swung out again.

  "Bang—"

  Li Jiao's face and Li Yi's palm collided in mid-air, the air seemed to freeze for an instant, and after a moment, Li Jiao's body was violently flung out, under the gaze of countless people, like a falling rock, heavily smashing onto the outside of the arena.

  Li Yi slowly withdrew his hand, which was slightly burned, and muttered to himself: "Idiot, I don't believe you can cultivate your vital energy to your face!"

  "But this face is really thick, every time I hit it, my hand hurts!"

  Li Yi's words were spoken in a low voice, but the four elders on stage heard them clearly. Their eyes narrowed and they couldn't help but take a long, cool breath. Li Bao's defeat earlier was already surprising enough, but who would have thought that even Li Jiao would lose so cleanly and mercilessly...

  This guy, he didn't even use his fighting skills!!!!!

  The eyes of the four elders fell again to the arena below, on Li Jiao's body, which was still unaware of what had happened. The muscles on his face twitched, and finally, he squeezed out the words in a dry voice: "Li Yi... defeats Li Jiao... Li Yi wins!"

  Li Yi smiled slightly, he walked slowly to the edge of the stage, sneered and said faintly: "Do you dare to come on stage and make a fool of yourself? Don't you know that you're not even as good as Li Ba?"

  After saying this, Li Yi curled his lips and glanced at the four elders with ugly faces. He smiled and said: "Fourth elder, can I leave now?"

  The four elders looked at each other awkwardly, not knowing what to say. They could only look up at the high platform for help, but it was clear that some people on the platform were still in a daze from the scene before them.

  "The four elders didn't say anything, so I took it as a yes... Anyway, the opportunity for our clansmen to challenge me has already been used up by Li Jiao, right?"

  "Hold on!" Just as the four elders were about to respond, a furious and shrill cry had already come from below the stage.

  Then, a pale blue figure flew quickly to Li Jiao's side, lifted up the unconscious Li Jiao, and she looked up at Li Yi with hatred in her eyes, saying: "Li Yi! No matter what, Li Jiao is your cousin! How could you be so ruthless!"

  Looking at the girl who suddenly ran out to question him, the four elders seemed to have met a savior, and with a somewhat guilty conscience, they glanced at Li Yi before pretending to scold: "Li Nana! What kind of occasion is this? How can you behave like this!"

  Looking at Li Nana who was demanding an explanation, as well as the four elders who were putting on airs, Li Yi couldn't help but feel a little amused. He took a closer look at Li Nana and then revealed an incredulous expression, saying in a low voice: "Sister Nana, I only slapped him twice, and look, Brother Li's face is so thick-skinned, what could possibly happen? I think that as long as he rests for a few more days, he'll be able to come and slap me again. Or is it that seeing Brother Li's beautiful face get hurt, you're feeling heartache?"
