?"Gu Qingyang." Wang Ruyue said in a deep voice and clenched her fists tightly.
"Huh? Was he the genius of the Gu family?" Tenku saw a handsome man dressed in white walking among the group. He had a heroic temperament but was also arrogant in every step he took.
"Yes. His name is Gu Qingyang. The first genius of the Gu family and his strength were unfathomable to the younger generation in Beijing. He was the one who was going to marry Wang Ruyue in the marriage agreement between the Wang and the Gu family." Wang Xin explained in a whisper.
"I see." Tenku nodded after hearing that. No wonder Wang Ruyue had such a reaction after seeing that man. Tenku could feel that Gu Qingyang was stronger than Long Aotian and Lin Zhantian.
Wang Ruyue overheard the conversation between Wang Xin and Tenku even though they spoke in low voices. Then she opened her mouth without looking at them.
"He and his family are the sources of all problems. If it weren't for them pressuring the Wang family to fulfill the marriage agreement, the Long, Lin, and other martial arts families in Beijing would not have kept their distance from our family and put many of our businesses on the brink of bankruptcy.
They were afraid of offending the Gu family and dared to do that to us because the Wang family had declined and become the weakest of the four major families. If not for them, my grandfather would not have left me all these years to find a disciple he could trust to participate in this competition.
But that's not all they've done. The disciples of the Gu family also secretly bullied our younger generation, but the Wang family didn't retaliate because they didn't want to start a war between martial arts families." Wang Ruyue said hatefully. The gentle expression on her face disappeared and was replaced with anger.
Wang Zeming and the others who heard Wang Ruyue's words could only lower their heads. They know about it, but they can't do anything. If not for the Patriarch and the elders forbidding them from taking revenge on the Gu family, Wang Zeming and the others would have already challenged them to a duel.
Wang Ruyue became calmer after Gu Qingyang, and the rest of the Gu family disappeared from her sight. Fortunately, they did not see the presence of the Wang family. Otherwise, those people would come to them and start making trouble.
"I understand now. So by winning the competition, you cannot only annul the marriage agreement and prevent the Gu family from devouring the Wang family but also show the other families that you are stronger than those people. Besides that, in the battle arena, you can also take revenge for the Gu family's bullying." Tenku nodded after understanding another goal of the Wang family to win the competition.
"Yes, you're right. Therefore, this competition is very important for us." Wang Zeming nodded, confirming Tenku's words.
"Then, we must win this competition. Do you believe the Wang family can take first place in this event?" Tenku smiled slightly and asked Wang Zeming and others.
"I don't know how strong Gu Qingyang is right now. But I'm not afraid of fighting him on the battle arena because I'm sure I'm not weaker than the geniuses of other major families." Wang Zeming said confidently, and the cultivation of the great perfection of the Earth Origin realm slightly leaked from his body. Even though it was only for a moment, Tenku could notice it.
"Yes. You will win this competition because I need that Qi accumulation pill." Tenku said in a firm voice at the beginning of the sentence and became inaudible at the end. Wang Ruyue and the others were confused when they heard it and wanted to ask him to repeat what he said. But before they could do that, Tenku opened his mouth first and tried to change the topic of their conversation.
"Who are these people? Are they also part of the martial arts competition?" Tenku pointed at the people in black uniforms scattered around the area. They didn't look like organizers or participants in the competition but kept their eyes on the place.
"No. They are not part of this event. They are from the China Realizer organization." Wang Ruyue shook her head.
"China Realizer Organization? What are they doing here?" Tenku asked confusedly. No wonder he couldn't feel even a bit of Qi from their bodies because they weren't cultivators but Realizers.
"Unlike Japan, China only has one Realizer organization, so it's easy to manage. Apart from fighting monsters that emerged from space collapse, China's Realizer organization also maintains security in every region, including certain events that gather large crowds. So the Realizers are here to prevent a riot in the martial arts competition." Wang Ruyue explained.
"I see. By the way, is it okay for disciples in the Wang family to become members of that organization?" Tenku asked another question.
"Of course, you can, and one of them is me." Wang Ruyue smiled and pointed to herself.
"How about the others?" Tenku looked at Wang Zeming and Wang Xin.
"They are also members of the Realizer organization, but the Phantasmal Objects they awaken are not combat-type. Because of this, they rarely show it to others and are not active in organizations." Wang Ruyue answered in a whisper because she didn't want the rest of the Wang family to hear.
"Ooh, when I heard you talk like that, I believed you awakened a weapon-type Phantasmal Object. Is my guess right?" Tenku asked curiously.
"I don't think I need to answer your question because you and grandpa also kept the matter a secret from me." Wang Ruyue smiled and replied with a bit of annoyance when she remembered that none of them wanted to answer her curiosity about Tenku's strength. But the expression on her face was enough to confirm his conjecture.
After that, Tenku and the Wang family arrived at a place for the participants to sit and wait for the martial arts competition to start. Besides the Wang family, young geniuses from the other major families were also there, including the people Wang Zeming had told about. Tenku also saw Wang Xiqing at that place, but the other party deliberately kept his distance from his group.
When Tenku and the Wang family were waiting for the martial arts competition to start, they heard a sound behind them, making Wang Ruyue's body tremble slightly.
"Ruyue?" a handsome man with a heroic and arrogant temperament walked up to the Wang family seat. He was Gu Qingyang, and the geniuses of the Gu family followed closely behind.
"What are you doing in this place? Please leave, as we don't accept anyone from the Gu family here." Wang Ruyue said indifferently.
"Why are you so cold to me? I came here to see my fiancé." Gu Qingyang smiled and was not angry with Wang Ruyue's words.
Originally Gu Qingyang didn't care about the marriage agreement between the Gu family and the Wang family. But after he saw Wang Ruyue's beautiful face and gentle temperament, he immediately fell in love and obsessed with her.
When the Wang family intended to exchange Wang Ruyue with Wang Xiuying to marry him and fulfill the marriage agreement, Gu Qingyang resolutely refused. After that, the Gu family objected to the Wang family because only a genius like Wang Ruyue was suitable for Gu Qingyang.
Wang Xiuying is indeed beautiful and also sexy. Her cultivation was also quite high, and she was also one of the geniuses of the Wang family. Unfortunately, all those aspects are still under Wang Ruyue.
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not your fiancé! If it weren't for the tricks that the Gu family had in the past, the Wang family's ancestors would not have made such an agreement! More importantly, don't call my name intimately because I've never felt that close to you!" Wang Ruyue replied angrily.
"I don't know what you mean by that, but I don't like you slandering the Gu family in public. The marriage agreement exists and is genuine without the slightest coercion from our family. Therefore, you must fulfill what you have agreed to. So whatever you say, you will be my wife in the future. After this competition is over, we will immediately hold our wedding ceremony." Gu Qingyang pretended to be angry with Wang Ruyue's words.
"So you're pretending you don't know what happened in the past? Well, I'm not forcing a coward to admit his mistake. Besides, have you forgotten that the victor of this martial arts competition will determine the marriage agreement? Do you feel like you've won even before the competition starts?" Wang Ruyue sneered, and her voice was loud enough for those around her to hear.
"I will win this competition, and you will be my wife. Do you think there are competitors stronger than me here? If you want the Wang family to win this event, you only dream." Gu Qingyang replied calmly and didn't care if the people around him heard it.
"Aren't you too arrogant? Do you think you are the strongest cultivator in the world? Our Wang family will not necessarily lose in this competition. So who is the winner and loser is still unknown until the end of the competition." Wang Zeming was displeased because Gu Qingyang's words greatly belittled the Wang family.
"Hoo... where did that confidence come from? Is it because you've gotten stronger after I defeated you? Or maybe because of the Japanese there? Isn't that boy your grandfather's disciple?" Gu Qingyang was irritated when he saw Tenku ignoring him and sitting quietly, playing with his smartphone.
"Huh!? How did you know about that!?" Wang Ruyue narrowed her eyes and said coldly when she heard Gu Qingyang's words. Tenku just arrived yesterday, and news about him shouldn't get out unless someone leaks it.
Wang Zeming and Wang Xin's faces darkened when they heard it. They were not stupid and knew what Gu Qingyang meant. There is a Gu family spy in the Wang family.
"You don't need to think about that. You must worry about whether he can return safely from the battle arena." Gu Qingyang looked at Tenku with dangerous eyes and left those words before he left the place with the rest of the Gu family.
"You…" Wang Ruyue wanted to say something to Gu Qingyang, but a sound from the battle arena interrupted her.
"For the participants of the martial arts competition, please gather at arena D. We will start this event soon." a middle-aged man reminded Wang Ruyue and the others that the martial arts competition had started. Afterward, Tenku put his smartphone in his pocket and smiled coldly at Gu Qingyang.
