Chapter 377: Chapter 373: Mediation

In the cabin, there were more than a hundred young gentlemen, yet for Mi Bai and Xiao Ziyu, they only saw each other, their powerful auras equally matched, each determining the rightful ownership of the painting in their own minds, completely ignoring the more than a hundred Xiling noblemen who were spectating.

The sons of the nobility who had been pushed aside, though disgruntled, did not dare to express their dissatisfaction, because the struggle for the painting had escalated beyond their qualifications. In a sense, whoever ended up owning this painting would effectively become the top-ranked transcendent of Xiling.

Although they belittled martial arts verbally, that was only because of their extraordinary backgrounds. In reality, they were a group of people who understood the importance of martial arts more than anyone else. From a young age, they had been bathed in the one and only absolute truth of the world: the strong rule.

Therefore, this situation was sufficient for these nobles to willingly withdraw from the struggle for the painting, leaving the stage to the two individuals in the center.

Even so, the two gentlemen continued to explode with martial spirit, and the urge to battle in their eyes became stronger and stronger, as if they were about to determine a winner in the midst of this cabin.

The attendant standing by the display case, seeing the two with tangible determination over the painting’s ownership, was nearly in tears.

Overwhelmed by the dominant aura of the two, she, a dominant force in Mortal Realm, felt icy cold and was trembling, unable to utter a word. If it was not for her support against the display case, she would not even be able to maintain her standing posture.

Just as the two seemed ready to fight, a harmonious voice echoed from afar. It was the voice of the host of the appreciation event, a major Xiling businessman, and eldest son of Xiao Jinlin – Xiao Zheng.
