How many people are left? I?ll take them all on so that I can nap properly afterward!
After hearing Hong Dali?s arrogant and domineering words, the entire advancement assessment venue fell into a silence that lasted half a minute. Afterward, it erupted!
?Oh my god, he can?t be serious, right? He wants to challenge all the Double Aristocrats present?!?
?Crazy. He must be crazy! He?s just a mere Orange and Yellow-level Double Honorary Aristocrat. He still wants to take on everyone??
?He must still be asleep. Is he sleep-talking? Him against everyone? He can?t be exaggerating that much even if he?s dreaming, right??
?Hong Dali, you can?t be that arrogant. This is the advancement assessment. Not a place for you to act crazy!?
In an instant, the entire place turned their anger towards Hong Dali. Countless blamed him for his arrogance. After all, what was his status? He was a mere Orange and Yellow-level Double Honorary Aristocrat!
To be blunt, Hong Dali was in the second-last place amongst all seven levels of the Double Aristocrats!
He succeeded in his challenge against a Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrat just now. Even that only barely made him the third-lowest place!
He dared to challenge the entire field. Did he really think that the Double Aristocrats were so weak? Who did he think he was?!
In the audience stands, Jiang Qianxue wiped off her cold sweat while looking at Hong Dali. When she first approached Hong Dali in a panic, she just wanted him to help them a little. After all, she had spent a lot of time with him and understood a little about his legendary performances.
However, she only hoped that Hong Dali could teach the Li family a lesson. She never expected him to challenge the entire arena.
Furthermore, it was not even allowed in the rules…
?This guy is crazy!? Li Tianxing was first shocked. Then, he was over the moon. ?Hahahaha, is he still sleeping? This is amazing. Since you?ve said it, I?ll see how you can get out of this one!?
Countless people looked at the Lords seated on the platform above to see their reactions.
?Silence!? Jiang Dongliu stood up and signaled with his hands. Soon, the entire venue turned silent. He then looked at Hong Dali and asked, ?Hong Dali, did you say that you want to issue an open challenge? In other words, no matter how many people there are left, you want to challenge them all. Is that right??
If it was anyone else, they would probably have to admit it now even if they were not capable of the challenge. In other words, a normal person would have to puff himself up at his own cost.
Yet, ordinary people were ordinary people, and wastrel Hong was wastrel Hong. They couldn?t be mentioned in the same breath.
After Jiang Dongliu finished his question, Hong Dali did not respond for a long time!
?Hong Dali?? Jiang Dongliu was not sure about what happened. ?Hong Dali, I?m asking you a question!?
There was still no reaction.
Everyone carefully stared at Hong Dali?s face. Suddenly, they saw his body twitch. He was drooling from the corner of his mouth…
What the heck. How tired can you be?! You just said such a domineering line, and you?re asleep again?! You?re sleeping while standing?!
?Is this guy the reincarnation of a sleeping god? He seriously loves sleep so much. Was everything he said before just sleep-talk?!?
?Wahahahaha! You learn something new every day. Hong Dali has just lost them all the face they had, right?!?
?Hahaha, this guy is invincible. He can even sleep while standing. Instant KO!?
The Jiang family and Yin family were so depressed that they all lowered their heads. Even Jiang Qianxue could no longer watch. ?Forget it, let me just pretend like I can?t see him. Otherwise, I?ll die of anger!?
Yin Tianzong stared in bewilderment. ?What the heck. My Brother Dali doesn?t give a damn…?
Hong Dali?s silence made Jiang Dongliu embarrassed. ?Poke him again! This little rascal!?
So the Double Aristocrat poked Hong Dali?s arm again…
?AHHHHHHHH!? Another thunderous roar was heard. ?Another challenge?! I said I wanted to issue an open challenge, right?! I?ll take everyone on! Don?t disturb my nap!?
No matter what he said, at least he responded. Jiang Dongliu hurriedly asked, ?However, we don?t have any rules for cross-rank challenges. And, do you really plan on challenging everyone??
Ever since its inception, the advancement assessment rules always dictated that the contestants had to compete within the same level. The strongest bunch of the same level would be rewarded with the chance to challenge the weakest bunch of the higher level. If they succeeded, they would be promoted.
However, there had never been an instance of a lower-level contestant challenging everyone above him as Hong Dali suggested! Nobody even had that thought in their minds!
Hong Dali was obviously annoyed when poked awake for the second time. ?Aren?t rules meant to be broken?! If you don?t have the rules, then make them now! I hate how troublesome it is! I?ll defeat anybody I challenge, no matter how many there are! Don?t disturb my sleep!?
Rules were meant to be broken. How epic was that!
Everyone was stunned by Hong Dali?s words. This superprodigal was insane. He dared to say that to one of the Five Kings, Jiang Dongliu? That rules were meant to be broken?!
Even if there were no such rules, he had to satisfy Hong Dali?s request, as his reputation was on the line.
Otherwise, people might say that this request was rejected without any second thoughts. Was Jiang Dongliu afraid that Hong Dali would really defeat everyone?
Hence, Hong Dali should be given a chance. If he failed, he could be punished for both crimes. It would showcase the open-mindedness of the Aristocrats and prove that he was just daydreaming. Everyone would agree with the penalties given then.
As expected, Li Xuancheng hurriedly agreed before Jiang Dongliu had a chance to speak. ?Good kid. Domineering. Impressive! Then, I will give you a chance today. Now you won?t have any excuses! Then, this year?s advancement assessment will have an emergency rule change. This change will only be applicable for you alone!?
Jiang Dongliu wanted to stop him there. After all, the stakes were too high now. If Hong Dali lost, he would lose face as well.
However, Li Xuancheng obviously would not give him the chance. He yelled, ?From now on, you alone will face all Double Aristocrats that remain! Of course, since this is the Business stage, we will only compete using business! I?ll see how you can defeat those remaining!?
?No problem.? Hong Dali did not care at all. ?Let?s start.?
?There?s no need to rush.? Li Xuancheng gave a cold smile and said, ?Since I?ve set the rules for you specifically, I need some benefits too.?
Jiang Dongliu heard this and groaned inwardly.
This Li Xuancheng went through so much trouble for Hong Dali, he obviously had some ulterior motives. Then, it was time to find out what conditions Li Xuancheng had in store.
?Hurry up.? Hong Dali sniffled without a care in the world. ?Why are you wasting so much time??
Once Hong Dali said this, everyone instantly drew in a cold breath!
Li Xuancheng was the strongest of the Five Kings. He was the head of the Li family! Hong Dali dared to say that he was wasting time! Was Hong Dali trying to commit suicide?!
That was not the most shocking thing.
The most shocking thing was that Li Xuancheng smiled without a hint of anger. ?My condition is simple. If you lose, you have to answer a few of my questions. How about that??
?Sure.? Hong Dali agreed without a second thought. Then, he asked, ?What if I win??
?Whatever you want.? Li Xuancheng stared at Hong Dali. ?I?ll give you whatever you want!?
?Yea, sure. Let?s begin.? Hong Dali yawned. ?The earlier we end this, the earlier I get to rest.?
Everyone else was stunned by Hong Dali.
?This guy asked about what will happen if he wins. Does he really believe that he can win?!?
?This guy must have gone stupid when sleeping. You don?t even dream about this kind of stuff, right??
?That?s right. Who does he think he is??
Jiang Dongliu frowned and thought about it. Suddenly, he interjected. ?Old Li, I thought about it. Are we asking too much of him? Although Hong Dali asked to challenge everyone, but that… Haokong should not be included, right??
Jiang Dongliu?s proposal was reasonable. Li Xuancheng could not argue against that. After all, Li Haokong was one of the only five Black and White-level Double Aristocrats. He was the true genius amongst geniuses. It would be bad faith to include him in the lineup. After all, there was no way that Hong Dali could reach that stage. They should just put up a generous image. This way, it would be more likely for Hong Dali to answer the questions properly when he lost. Hence, Li Xuancheng instantly agreed and nodded. ?Alright, as you wish. He?ll win once he reaches the Purple and Black level, okay??
?Alright.? Jiang Dongliu knew that this was as far as he could get. At least there was some hope for Hong Dali to reach the Purple and Black level. He could only nod and pray?don?t lose too badly, Young Master Dali. Otherwise, my face will be…
?Done?? Hong Dali was very impatient. ?If you?re done, let?s begin…?
?Okay. We?ll start now!? Li Xuancheng slammed the table in front of him.
The host instantly announced. ?As a result of the temporary rule change, Hong Dali?s cross-rank challenge will now begin!?
As he said that, the holographic projection in the center of the arena suddenly changed. Hong Dali?s projection was the first to appear. He stood at the lowest level. In front of him, a giant pyramid formed by people appeared in front of him!
On the lowest level of the pyramid stood the nine Yellow and Green-level Double Aristocrats that succeeded in their challenges. Above them were the eight Green and Turquoise-level Double Aristocrats. Six Turquoise and Blue-level Double Aristocrats were on the third level. On the fourth level were four Blue and Purple-level Double Aristocrats. On the highest level, there were two Purple and Black-level Double Aristocrats!
The projections of all these Double Aristocrats sat on golden and shiny thrones. They crossed their legs and donned their unique coats that showcased their Double Aristocrat status. Their aura was overwhelming!
Hong Dali, on the other hand, stood on the ground. He looked like a puny ant that was about to challenge the invincible authority!
Everyone?s sights were locked in on that pyramid.
Acka flew back to Hong Dali?s head.
The host loudly shouted, ?Cross-rank challenge, start!?
