<h4>Chapter 1262: Chapter 1570: Sitting on One’s Laurels</h4>


    "Chen Junfeng, I think you’re courting death." Su He said coldly, his aura suddenly surging, causing the surrounding people to feel overwhelmed, hastily retreating for fear of being affected.


    "Who’s afraid of whom!" Chen Junfeng did not back down, staring coldly at Su He, step by step approaching.


    At this moment, Zhu Chuan behind Chen Junfeng suddenly stepped forward two steps, pressing towards Chen Junfeng’s back. Hearing footsteps behind him, Chen Junfeng paused slightly, nced back at Zhu Chuan, and sneered: "What, want two against one? Fine, no problem, anyway, you people from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion are all a bunch of despicable and lowly beings, I suppose you’re quite used to it."


    "Shut up! You old bastard, watch your mouth. Keep insulting our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, and I’ll rip your mouth apart!"


    Chen Junfeng looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Wang Hao stepping down from the stands, standing behind Su He, meeting his gaze coldly.


    "Since when did it be your turn to butt in here? Su He, your disciple really doesn’t know the rules." Chen Junfengughed coldly, standing tall and unafraid, saying: "Whether you want two against one, or three together, it’s up to you, I’ll apany you to the end today."


    At this moment, the audience in the sports hall whispered among themselves, discussing the sudden situation on the field. Chen Junfeng’s words just now especially shocked many people. The martial artsmunity had gathered in East Sea City primarily to enjoy the duel between the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy and the Dragon Tiger Hall, but unexpectedly heard so many shocking news.


    If the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy is indeed secretly controlled by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to defeat Dragon Tiger Hall, then the actions of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would be too despicable. Previously, there were rumors about the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion excluding other forces to rise, but they were just hearsay, no one knew the truth, at most it was tea time chatter. Now, someone publicly used the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion of crimes. And that person was a master from the Heavenly List.


    Being a dignified Heavenly List master, saying these words publicly, already put life and death aside. Therefore, his words have high credibility.


    Listening to the discussions from the audience on the stands, Su He’s facial expression became very ugly. Things developing to this stage were unexpected for him. If not handled well, it would be a devastating blow to the reputation of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.


    "Chen Junfeng, our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion has always convinced people through reasoning, repaying grievances with virtue. I’ve warned you already, but you repeatedly nder the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, disregarding my warning. In that case, don’t me me for being rude." After speaking, Su He turned to the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone just heard, it was Chen Junfeng who insulted the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion first. Therefore, please understand my actions."


    As the words fell, Su He moved his feet, instantly pressing towards Chen Junfeng.


    However, just at the moment Su He was moving, an elderly voice suddenly came from the entrance of the sports hall: "Isn’t this supposed to be a duel between the Dragon Tiger Hall and the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy? How did it turn into a battle between Dragon Tiger Hall and the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion?"


    Su He frowned, immediately stopped his steps, and followed everyone’s gaze towards the entrance. Instantly, they saw Tong Zhentian sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed in by Tang Guolun.


    Tang Guolun looked at everyone on the field, smirking as he spoke: "Elder Tong, are you confused? Is there a difference between the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy and the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, aren’t they all cut from the same cloth?"


    "That’s true." Tong Zhentian and Tang Guolun spoke as if no one else was present, seemingly ignoring Su He and others on stage.


    Su He frowned slightly, looking at Tong Zhentian in the wheelchair, and spoke: "I heard you were injured, not resting well in the hospital, what are you running here for?"


    "I’d also like to stay in the hospital, but as the Martial Arts Hall Master of the Dragon Tiger Hall, with someone intending harm to us, would I just stand by and watch, doing nothing? If it were you, I believe you wouldn’t sit still either." After a pause, Tong Zhentian continued: "Su He, in consideration of our long-standing friendship, I advise you, unreasonable actions often lead to self-destruction, better stop early. Otherwise, one day you’ll set yourself on fire, putting the entire Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion in danger."


    "What the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion wants to do is our business, it’s unnecessary for you outsiders to meddle. Tong Zhentian, you’re also at an old age, why don’t you enjoy your twilight years at home, why mess in this dirty water. If you truly care about our friendship, then you should leave immediately, and don’t get involved no matter what happens."


    "Sorry, I can’t do that." Tong Zhentian said: "If everyone was like me, facing oppression and not resisting, epting fate, then what future would martial arts have? Are we supposed to rely on your Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion? Su He, I still say, don’t be too extreme." Speaking up here, Tong Zhentian turned to everyone present, saying: "Ladies and gentlemen, you may not know that some time ago, Huangzekai from the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy came to Dragon Tiger Hall to issue a challenge. After careful consideration, I epted the duel. However, that very evening, on my way home, I was assaulted by two Heavenly List masters, severely injured, lying in the hospital unconscious."


    "Everyone here is from the martial arts world, I believe you can understand the reasons behind this. Today, on the contest stage, the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Academy once again sent out two Heavenly List masters. I can be certain that these two and the ones who ambushed me are not the same group. Think carefully, which power in the martial arts world can possess so many Heavenly List masters? I believe, I don’t need to say that you already know it. Therefore, this duel is a scheme concocted by certain people to target Dragon Tiger Hall, aiming to suppress our influence and thoroughly destroy us. Everyone, our initial intent of establishing Dragon Tiger Hall was not for earning power, nor to be a martial arts hegemon. Actually, we just wanted to contribute a little to the Huaxia martial artsmunity. Yet, even so, some people can’t tolerate our existence and want to eliminate us."


    "The Huaxia martial artsmunity has gone through hundreds of years of history, many ups and downs, and now it’s slowly declining. If we keep sticking with inaction, not seeking change, the entire martial arts world will face catastrophic damage. All of you here are from the martial artsmunity, you should know my words are not rmist talk. Martial arts shouldn’t be dominated by one party alone, that only limits our development and progress, we need a flourishing diversity, contending voices. Only conscientiouspetition can lead martial arts to revive, offering the next generation a glimpse of martial arts’ future. Everyone, please seriously think about it, whether I’m right or not."
