Xia Yujia looked extremely ugly when she saw Meng Xingyu standing up for Feng Yuqin like this. "Cousin, are we just going to watch Feng Yuqin steal the show like this?"
Meng Yuanhang stared at Meng Xingyu with a gloomy look on his face.
They all shared the same surname and the same ancestor. Why did their branch of the Meng family always have to be oppressed by Meng Xingyu's branch?
If Meng Xingyu knew what Meng Yuanhang was thinking at this moment, he would surely show him what real oppression meant.
If the Meng family really wanted to oppress Meng Yuanhang's side branch, Meng Yuanhang wouldn't even have had the chance to be born.
"Cousin, say something! Aren't you always full of ideas? Think of a way to make Feng Yuqin suffer. I don't want to see her shine on the stage anymore." Xia Yujia said venomously, "Why did we all fail while Feng Yuqin doesn't even have to fight and still has Meng Xingyu and the others fighting for her? I'm not willing to accept this."
Xia Yujia's group was rather unlucky and had a relatively high - ranked draw. So they lost before Feng Yuqin even took the stage.
Originally, she thought Feng Yuqin's group would lose quickly. But unexpectedly, Feng Yuqin hadn't been knocked off the stage yet, and now she didn't even have to make a move.
How could this not make her burn with jealousy?
"I'm just wondering. Feng Yao should hate Feng Yuqin the most, right? But why hasn't she made a move?" Meng Yuanhang wondered.
Xia Yujia glanced at Feng Yao who was in the middle of the competition and snorted. "Cousin, Feng Yao's group has such a high - ranked draw, and she wants to win the competition. How can she have the time to plot against Feng Yuqin? So we have to do this ourselves."
"What's your plan?" Meng Yuanhang asked.
Xia Yujia rolled her eyes and stared venomously at Feng Yuqin. "Cousin, you should know the strength of the participants in this competition, right?"
Meng Yuanhang replied, "I know most of them."
"Then what if we get all the stronger ones to go against Feng Yuqin?" Xia Yujia said excitedly.
In that case, could Feng Yuqin still stand on the competition stage unscathed without making a move?
Could their group still win?
It was simply impossible!
The more Xia Yujia thought about it, the better she thought this plan was.
"How many strong participants do you plan to bribe?" Meng Yuanhang asked.
"Meng Xingyu and the others are all quite strong. That Yan Xiao seems to have also leveled up. Even though the Yan family has declined, they can still level up, so their strength must not be underestimated. Let's just bribe all the powerful ones from Feng Yao's side." Xia Yujia said.
Meng Yuanhang thought for a while and decided it wasn't a big problem.
After all, Feng Yao's group was very strong, and the probability of the participants winning wasn't very high.
If they switched to Feng Yuqin's side, not only would they have a chance of winning, but they could also earn some silver. Presumably, everyone would be happy to do so.
"Then I'll go and arrange it right away. I'll pay for the silver." Xia Yujia said boldly.
Meng Yuanhang nodded and turned away.
He had the list of participants a long time ago, so now he just had to arrange for people to contact the stronger ones.
If they were already on Feng Yuqin's side, there was no need to worry about them.
All the stronger participants from Feng Yao's group were arranged to go against Feng Yuqin.
At first, Meng Xingyu and the others didn't notice anything.
But after several groups came up for the competition, Meng Xingyu and Yan Xiao both noticed something was wrong at the same time.
After they had just defeated a group, Meng Xingyu said, "The person I just knocked off the stage had an odd - numbered draw. I saw his number when he passed by me during the draw."
Yan Xiao also said, "The group before that, I also know they had odd - numbered draws, but they came to our side."
"What's going on?" Yan Geng asked curiously.
Meng Xingyu and Yan Xiao immediately explained the situation.
Since Nightingale had experience in the auction house, she immediately guessed what was going on. "They must have been bribed. All the powerful contestants are coming to our side. Look at the contestants on Feng Yao's side. Don't they seem much weaker?"
Hearing this, they all looked over and indeed found that the group fighting against Feng Yao only had one Soul Sect. Feng Yao didn't even have to make a move, and those people were knocked off the stage by Feng Chi and Ji Wen'an together.
They won so easily.
Soon, several more groups came to Meng Xingyu's side, all much stronger than those on Feng Yao's side.
Gradually, some of the onlookers also noticed something was wrong.
"Have you noticed that in the last seven or eight groups that took the stage, the contestants on Feng Yuqin's side are obviously stronger?"
"You noticed it too? I thought it was just my imagination."
"So what's going on?"
"Maybe Feng Yuqin is just unlucky."
"Her group is so unlucky! They've all encountered stronger opponents."
"I said Feng Yuqin is a jinx. Otherwise, how could Meng Xingyu and the others keep encountering such strong opponents? Whoever gets close to her will be unlucky."
"Damn it! These scoundrels are too much! They actually say the master is a jinx." Xiao Ying said angrily.
Xiao Jin also looked angry. "The master is not a jinx. The master is a lucky star."
"You should know what's going on, right?" Feng Yuqin, of course, had heard the remarks from the outside and also what Meng Xingyu and the others had just said.
"It was that Xia Yujia and Meng Yuanhang who did it." Xiao Jin said. "I've been paying attention to the situation around us."
"Why didn't you say anything?" Xiao Ying asked.
Xiao Jin said, "I thought those people were just small fries. Was there any need to say anything?"
Xiao Ying thought about it and realized it was true.
These people might be strong in the eyes of Xia Yujia and the others, but in front of the master, they were simply no match.
Feng Yuqin frowned. She didn't expect it was Xia Yujia and the others who did this.
Although the situation was indeed as Xiao Jin said, she couldn't tolerate what Xia Yujia had done.
The Third Elder and the others also noticed something strange, but they wouldn't interfere in such a situation.
Even the referee wouldn't care about these things.
As more and more people took the stage, Meng Xingyu and the others' soul power was being rapidly consumed.
Seeing this, everyone thought Meng Xingyu and the others were not far from defeat.
A glint of excitement flashed in Xia Yujia's eyes. "Cousin, thanks to you this time. Once Meng Xingyu and the others fall, Feng Yuqin will have to make a move."
"Feng Yuqin's strength is not as good as Meng Xingyu and the others. If only Feng Yuqin is left, their group is surely going to lose." Meng Yuanhang said.
However, what they were looking forward to didn't happen.
Just when everyone thought Meng Xingyu and the others had exhausted all their soul power, Feng Yuqin directly threw each of them a bottle of pills.
"Take the Soul - Reviving Pills. There are plenty." Feng Yuqin said boldly.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
