More and more people arrived. Yun Kaiyue was influential. Lu Li had only been sitting for a short while when 60 or 70 people came to the hall.
This time, he invited the top 100 warriors. Those who were not in the top 100 were not qualified to come.
Most of the top 100 warriors were males. The females were basically goddesses from some forces or disciples of some hidden families.
There were less than 30 females here. All of them were beautiful and elegant.
Naturally, these young ladies were sought after by many young masters. They were all in the top 100 with strong fighting abilities and a promising future. What was more, they all had big forces behind them. Ladies here were the best partners for men.
Of course, the top young masters would also be sought after by the young ladies, such as Yun Kaiyue, Tang Ning, and the top 10 young masters on the list.
These young masters were destined to become the most powerful warriors at the Second Heaven and dominate a region.
Those young ladies were not stupid. At their status, young masters would not be interested in them given their looks.
Who didn't want their husband to be a lord?
Who didn't want their husband to be a good-for-nothing?
Some young masters proposed toasts to Lu Li, but none of the young ladies, apart from Lady Qiong and Lady Mu, took the initiative to propose a toast to Lu Li.
Lu Li was a celebrity with strong abilities. Of this, there was no doubt.
But none of those young ladies tried to be friendly with Lu Li. Some of them even avoided looking at Lu Li.
Lu Li knew very well that he was not the son-in-law in the eyes of these young ladies. Many young masters came to toast to him just to be polite. They didn't really want to be friends with him.
Why?
There were many reasons. Two of them were the most important. First, Lu Li had no background.
Lu Li was not on the Demon King's side. He was just a regular disciple of the Omen Island.
Second, Lu Li had offended too many people. He had offended two forces. Even though he could survive for now, nobody could tell when he would be killed by the Fu Family and the Hall of Black Flames.
There were many geniuses in the world, but there were also many who died prematurely. Before a genius became a powerful warrior, many people would choose to wait and see.
What was more, Lu Li was too violent and reckless — killing the God's Son of two forces was a stupid act in itself.
This kind of character could easily attract a monstrous disaster. Those young ladies weren't stupid. They wouldn't want to hook up with a person who had no future and might die at any time.
On the other hand, Feng Yima was slightly more popular. Feng Yima had already arrived. Although he was seated in the second row, he was handsome and had a sharp edge to him. In addition, he liked to brag. Many of the young ladies were very courteous to him on the surface, and frequently toasted him.
Lu Li was happy to be alone. He sat in silence. Yun Kaiyue, on the other hand, toasted him twice.
What bothered Lu Li was that more than 80 of the top 100 had come, but "Yin Qingsi" was nowhere to be seen. That young man from the Eastern Devil Palace was nowhere to be seen, either.
"Let's leave after a while!"
Lu Li felt bored sitting here. He might as well go back to consume the divine quintessence, which could enhance his abilities.
The main reason was that he was about to have a life and death battle with Yun Kaiyue. Sitting here like a friend right now made him feel very uncomfortable.
He didn't have any grudges with Yun Kaiyue, but he had promised Fairy Tianyun, so he could only kill him more and more.
Lu Li was concerned about his own life. If he couldn't kill Yun Kaiyue, he wouldn't be able to go back to the Omen Island.
He would be hunted down by the Hall of Black Flame and the Fu Family. He would have to run around like a stray dog. In the end, he would attract many rogue cultivators and forces to join him, and he would die without a burial place …
"Young Master!"
After the time for one incense stick to burn, a patriarch of the Saint Origin Palace walked in. He walked to Yun Kaiyue and whispered to him, "Young Master, Lady Yin is here!"
"Lady Yin?"
Lu Li's eyes glowed. The veiled lady was Yin Qingsi, the No. 1 on the list.
He sat up straight and stared at the gate with his eyes glowing.
Many people noticed it as well. They all turned to look at him. Yun Kaiyue stood up and walked to the gate to greet them. After a while, he came back with a young lady.
"Guys!"
Yun Kaiyue smiled. He waved his hand to quiet everyone down. Solemnly, he said, "I would like to introduce someone to you. This is Lady Yin Qingsi, the No. 1 on the list!"
"What ~"
The place was livened up. There had been many rumors but this was the first time that it was confirmed. The No. 1 on the list was an honor, not to mention that Yin Qingsi had passed the fifth level of the Saint Origin Tower.
It was a pity that Yin Qingsi's face was still covered, which disappointed many people. Still, many people went over to her.
Lu Li didn't go over. He just looked on and listened.
Yin Qingsi was cold and aloof. She seldom spoke. But after a few words, Lu Li was disappointed.
Yin Qingsi's voice was pleasant but it was not the Blind's. So, they must not be the same person.
Lu Li felt even more bored after he was sure that Yin Qingsi was not the Blind. He planned to leave after the greetings were over.
Yin Qingsi had been dealing with the others for a while. Then, she was invited by Yun Kaiyue to sit in the middle.
This seat had always been reserved for her.
Clearly, Yun Kaiyue was interested in Yin Qingsi. His eyes were filled with passion.
He was indifferent to others, including some young ladies from wealthy families. But he was different to Yin Qingsi. Everyone could tell there was something wrong.
After Yin Qingsi sat down, Lu Li stood up and said, "Young Master Yun, young masters and young ladies, I have something to attend to. I will leave now."
Everyone was stunned. The banquet had just begun and Lu Li was leaving?
That was not giving him face.
If so, why did he come to this banquet?
Yun Kaiyue was surprised as well. But seeing how determined Lu Li was, Yun Kaiyue didn't want to stay any longer. He cupped his fists and said, "Since you have something to attend to, then we will not force you to stay.
Today, I have invited you all here because I want to ask you a favor.
Now that you have entered the semi-finals, I hope that you will not go too far in the following fights. Don't hurt each other's lives.
It is not easy to cultivate. We don't have any grudges. There is no need to fight to the death. "
"Yes, Young Master Yun is right. We can settle the semi-finals after we have a winner!"
"That's right. I will answer Young Master Yun's call!"
"Okay, we have made an appointment …"
Many echoed. Yun Kaiyue's suggestion was not bad. After all, it was just a competition, not a fight to the death. Everyone should restrain themselves and settle the winner.
Lu Li nodded but said nothing. How could he promise?
His purpose of coming to the Island of Chaos was to kill Yun Kaiyue. How could he agree to anything?
"Let's go!"
Lu Li cupped his fists and was about to leave the white jade platform when Yin Qingsi took the initiative to speak, "As soon as I am here, the Asura wants to leave. Do you have some prejudice against me?
Qing Si came here because she heard that the Asura God was coming. "
Everyone was in an uproar. Yin Qingsi didn't say more than 10 words since she came in. When others greeted her, she would only nod or say one or two words. She cherished her words like gold. Now, she was talking to Lu Li?
