As Qin Fang looked at Cui Zhimin, Cui Zhimin was talking to Shi Yuan. It seemed he also felt Qin Fang's gaze and looked over in this direction.

Qin Fang did not avoid it, met eyes with Cui Zhimin, and both slightly smiled and nodded gently.

There was no expected tension, no sparks flying as if it was just a simple exchange of glances...

However, after their eyes separated, both faces turned somewhat gloomy, Qin Fang included... because both sensed a bit of battle intent in each other's eyes.

Cui Zhimin appeared quite gentle and mild, but Qin Fang clearly saw profound hostility in him, the glaring red light was impossible to ignore.

Why there was such intense hostility, Qin Fang was not too sure. Perhaps it was related to Qin Fang having pitted against the Cui Family, or maybe there were other reasons, which were unknown.

However, Qin Fang started to pay some attention to Cui Zhimin, after all, he was a master who could threaten him...

Cui Zhimin's strength had reached the grandmaster level peak, equivalent to Qin Fang's strength, yet he practiced not only the Cui Family's cultivation techniques but also delved deeper into the Demon Sect's skills.

The Demon Sect's skills are quite sinister, like the Coagulation Divine Skill Qin Fang encountered earlier, it was extremely bizarre, making Qin Fang wary.

"Junior Martial Brother Qin, let's go over there..."

Fang Zonglin glanced at Qin Fang, then at Cui Zhimin in the distance, seemingly unable to deduce anything, but two disciples had already found seats, so he immediately pulled Qin Fang over.

This restaurant was quite excellent, specifically used to entertain judges like Qin Fang, with the best facilities and conditions.

Once Qin Fang and his group found their seats, they were immediately attended to.

Surprisingly, just as they sat down, another group sat nearby, which turned out to be Shi Yuan and his companions.

"What's that old guy Shi Yuan up to?"

Qin Fang was indifferent, but Fang Zonglin's expression turned slightly sharp, displaying clear displeasure, especially when Shi Yuan's group glanced over intentionally, as if purposely sitting there...

"Senior Brother Fang, don't be hasty, let's see how it unfolds..."

Qin Fang appeared very composed, seemingly unconcerned about Shi Yuan's group.

Actually, Qin Fang was not surprised they sat there; he previously exchanged glances with Cui Zhimin, clearly sensing the hostility from Cui Zhimin.

It seemed Cui Zhimin had said or promised something to Shi Yuan, which brought them over...

If one were to ask among these judges, who was considered the strongest, undoubtedly, everyone would say Shi Yuan was the strongest.

Even when the Fu Family organized the judging table, Shi Yuan sat in the middle, his leading position was clear. While others might be dissatisfied, they did not dare to provoke Shi Yuan.

Shi Yuan, however, actively moved towards Qin Fang's side; if he had no ulterior motives, Qin Fang wouldn't believe it, knowing Shi Yuan was not a benevolent character.

However, Qin Fang and his group soon started eating peacefully, with no disturbances. Even at Shi Yuan's side, it was equally calm, indicating they were not planning to make any moves.

The Fu Family and Cui Family both sent people to accompany various judges, naturally from the Cui Family was Cui Zhimin, and from the Fu Family, a grandmaster level peak middle-aged expert, a cousin of Fu Qinglin, his cultivation already formidable.

These two represented the Cui and Fu Families in looking after the judges, especially focusing on those invited by their respective families.

There were only a few judges, so accompanying them was relatively easy, just sharing a good drink. Fu Qingyang, after drinking a few glasses with other judges at another table, came over to Qin Fang's table.

"Mr. Qin, it truly is inspiring to see such a young and talented person like yourself... Today has truly been an eye-opening experience for me! Dragon Country indeed leads the Martial World..."

Sitting at Qin Fang's table, Fu Qingyang toasted Qin Fang and Fang Zonglin, his attitude was cordial, even offering particular praise to Qin Fang.

As for Chen Liang and Ling Fei, though not weak in skill, in front of these three, they were insignificant.

Fu Qingyang naturally did not pay much attention to them, and they were unfortunately overlooked, with no toasts directed at them.

Fu Qingyang toasted Qin Fang with a smile, naturally intending to flatter and curry favor with Qin Fang, after all, Qin Fang was invited by the Fu Family, and they certainly did not want him leaning towards the Cui Family.

"Hmph... Nonsense about leading the martial world by the nose!"

Fu Qingyang merely said these words without much seriousness, and no one would truly take them to heart. Most would hear it and just let it pass, without much care.

But the problem arose when some individuals heard Fu Qingyang's words and immediately objected. Though their voices weren't loud, they were enough for all the experts present to hear.

Fu Qingyang didn't look pleased; his gaze shifted slightly, and he noticed the voice came from Shi Yuan's table.

To be precise, these brazen words came from the two little devils next to Shi Yuan, who were even looking provocatively at Qin Fang at the moment.

"Damn it, I'm going to teach them a lesson..."

Qin Fang's expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard anything. It was Fang Zonglin who seemed to be getting angry, jumping up as if he was really planning to teach those two little devils a lesson.

Though Fang Zonglin came from the Little Island and wasn't particularly fond of the Inland, one thing was certain: they were still people of Dragon Country.

Martial artists value heritage and order, and Dragon Country indeed is the origin of martial arts. The little devils and Koreans only learned a bit from Dragon Country.

While the younger generation of Koreans and little devils didn't quite acknowledge this, the older generation did, knowing that the Dragon Country Martial World was truly a place full of hidden talents. They generally wouldn't make such remarks.

However, these two little devils were clearly looking for trouble, seemingly intentionally targeting Qin Fang.

"Calm down..."

But Qin Fang grabbed Fang Zonglin, stopping him from confronting the two little devils, and pulled him back to his seat to continue drinking.

Although Fu Qingyang's expression wasn't good, his assignment was to accompany the judges to eat and drink well, and anything beyond that wasn't their concern.

"Dragon Country people are all cowards, weaklings..."

Seeing Qin Fang and Fang Zonglin choose silence, the two little devils became even more aggressive, their words becoming increasingly harsh.

If their previous words were merely implicit rebuttals, now they were openly offensive.

Fang Zonglin's face grew darker, and his fists clenched slightly. Everyone understood that these two little devils dared to speak this way due to Shi Yuan's instigation, intending to provoke a confrontation.

But this time, Qin Fang suddenly stood up, drawing everyone's attention to him instantly.

Shi Yuan's deliberate provocation had been witnessed in the morning. However, due to Steward Fu's interference, a conflict was avoided then.

Now that Steward Fu wasn't present, although Fu Qingyang and Cui Zhimin were strong, they couldn't suppress Shi Yuan.

Moreover, Qin Fang wouldn't care about giving them face; never mind Cui Zhimin, even Fu Qingyang wouldn't get any courtesy from Qin Fang.

Qin Fang seemed unconcerned with others' glances, slowly leaving his seat to walk toward Shi Yuan's table, stopping right in front of the two little devils.

These two little devils were visibly shocked; they hadn't expected Qin Fang to act so impulsively... As the two sides parted, they didn't consider Qin Fang particularly formidable. But when Qin Fang stood in front of them, they panicked, almost instinctively looking over to Shi Yuan!

"Get lost..."

Qin Fang couldn't even be bothered to spare them a glance, merely uttering the word in a low voice. Anyone could hear the displeasure in his tone.

At that moment, Qin Fang stood before the two devils, his voice cold, yet his gaze was fixed on Shi Yuan, knowing that he was the one stirring up trouble. Qin Fang felt no need to show him any courtesy.

"Baka... Damn Chinese..."

Following master Shi Yuan, these two little devils acted arrogantly wherever they went, with pedestrians too afraid to come near, lest they be squashed like ants blocking their way.

Perhaps too used to being arrogant, they were surprised to encounter someone even more domineering. Alongside their surprise, they felt great displeasure, causing their words to become increasingly disrespectful.

"Too much chatter..."

Before they could finish their insults, they heard Qin Fang's cold snort, and watched as he swiftly reached out, grabbing the two little devils' necks with slight force.

Smack~~

Their faces were instantly slammed into the sturdy solid wood dining table... That scene made everyone shudder involuntarily, as just witnessing it was excruciatingly painful! (To be continued.
