These words were heart-wrenching enough and could not drive Feng Qingyu away. They directly used Da Zhou's face to speak.

Once the leader of the Great Zhou Dynasty loses his determination, Feng Qingyu will have no chance of qualifying.

"Your Majesty, please be clear! Qingyu is just delayed because of something, and he has no intention of looking down on your country at all!"

As Feng Qingyu said this, she bowed solemnly to the Lord of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Originally, the words of the old man surnamed Liu had already caused a grudge in the heart of the Lord of Zhou Dynasty, but Feng Qingyu's extremely respectful attitude completely shattered those doubts.

"As members of the royal family, Miss Feng doesn't need so many etiquette."

As he spoke, the Lord of Zhou Kingdom gently lifted his palm upwards, and an invisible force rose out of thin air, lifting Feng Qingyu up while he was saluting.

"Friend Liu Dao, what you said is a bit too much. I, Da Yu, do not need anyone to deliberately maintain my dignity. Those who respect me, Da Zhou, think that I am the leader of Da Zhou. Those who do not respect me, Da Zhou, even if they knock their heads to the ground, they still feel disrespectful in their hearts.

!”

"Master Daoyezi is right! The 108 countries of Saha are united, and no one can shake the status of Zhou Dynasty! How can such a trivial matter bring up such a serious issue of Zhou's face?

!”

With the support of the number one leader in the Saha Formation and the Peak Master of the Lingxian Sect, if these people want to take a stand, they have to consider the pros and cons.

As for the Peak Master of the Lingxian Sect, it's easier to say.

Although Lingxian Sect is also one of the top sects in central China, its overall strength is still far behind super sects such as Daozhen Sect and Taoist Sect.

Dao Yezi, on the other hand, has a loose personality and is extremely vindictive. If he takes note of him, no one who wants to set up a large magic circle in the future will be able to hire people from the Tai Chi Sect.

These are not the main reasons.

The most important thing is that the Lord of Zhou Dynasty, the only Mahayana practitioner in the field, does not seem to have any intention of pursuing the case.

If they insist on holding on to Xiao Xiu's lateness, they may offend not only the Lingxian Sect and the Taiji Sect, but also leave a very bad impression on the Lord of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just a qualification to participate. Participating doesn't mean you will definitely win."

"Indeed, delaying this matter for so long is really not worth the gain."

"There's nothing to discuss about this matter. Your Majesty makes the decision!"

All the powerful people at the ruling table expressed their opinions one after another, and threw the decision-making power back to the leader of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Without much hesitation, after these people expressed their opinions, the leader of the Great Zhou Dynasty just smiled and nodded to the old man in charge of hosting the event.

"Song Lao, continue!"

The decision was undecided, but it completely reassured Zuo Qing and the others.

This is the confirmation of Feng Qingyu’s qualification.

Since it has been approved, there is no need for further explanation. Some things are understood by everyone without having to say them explicitly.

Seeing that the outcome was decided and they could no longer stop the young cultivator from continuing to participate in the competition, the cultivator surnamed Liu suddenly thought of his plans.

"Wait a mininute!"

The sound of the gong was interrupted again, and a look of displeasure appeared on the face of the Lord of Zhou Dynasty.

Seeing that the Lord Zhou's expression suddenly became dull, the old man surnamed Liu's face froze, but he soon returned to normal.

"Liu Ji doesn't dare to have any objections to what His Majesty said. It's okay for Xiao Xiu to continue participating in the competition, but she must be punished a little. Otherwise, if everyone follows the same example, then the rules of the competition will be in vain."

"What do you think we should do?" the leader of the Zhou Dynasty asked in a nonchalant manner.

"Oh, I don't dare to have any opinions. I'm just making a suggestion. If Your Majesty thinks it's feasible, you can adopt it. If you think what Liu said is wrong, just take it as a joke."

The old man surnamed Liu spoke humbly enough, but in his actions he was not ambiguous at all.

After winking at the cultivator named Fan next to him, he expressed his thoughts.

"I don't want to embarrass a junior, but there are no rules. Since you have violated the rules, you must be punished. Otherwise, how can you convince the public?"

"I agree with what you said, Fellow Daoist Liu!" As soon as Liu Ji finished speaking, Fan Chong on the side followed suit.

"Since it is a competition, there must be rules for the competition, otherwise everyone will follow suit and there will be no need to hold this qualifying tournament."

With the support of Daozhenxianzong, Liu Ji straightened his back when speaking, and he spoke clearly and eloquently.

"I have no objection to continuing to participate in the competition, but corresponding punishment must be given!"

After saying this, Liu Ji looked around and saw that no one continued to object, and he felt more and more proud.

"What I mean is that no matter which step Osumi's team reaches in the end, the final ranking will automatically drop three places. This penalty will remain until the end of the qualifying round. What do you think?"

This punishment doesn't seem like much loss, but it is simply too fatal for Osumi!

The preliminary round was okay, the last twenty teams were all qualified to participate in the finals, so being dropped by three places was not a big deal.

But in the finals, only the top ten are qualified to enter the Saha Secret Realm, and those with the most places are concentrated in the top three.

In other words, even if Ohsumi wins the top spot, he will only be rewarded with third place in the end.

The third place reward is directly reduced by half compared to the first place!

If you are unlucky and only get second or third place, then there will only be eight spots left in Ohsumi's hands.

These are all good things to say.

If luck is worse and they get eighth place, the Osumi team will be completely isolated from the Saha Secret Realm.

When it opens next time, maybe Feng Qingyu is still qualified to participate.

In the audience seat, Zuo Qing was so angry that his steel teeth clenched, and the veins on his forehead popped out. He wished he could rush to the referee's table and give Liu Ji a slap in the face.

No matter how he cultivated, the situation was not as good as others. Knowing that this punishment was too unfair, he could only suppress the anger in his heart.

"I hope the Lord Zhou and others will not accept this proposal..."

Knowing that this was basically impossible, Zuo Qing couldn't help but pray secretly in his heart.

As for Feng Qingyu on the field, although she was not satisfied with the punishment conditions proposed by Liu Ji, she really didn't take the punishment to heart.

It was just a ranking drop of three places. She had no intention of competing for the top spot in the first place.

But now it seems that she can't compete for the position of leader!

As soon as this penalty was announced, the supporters of the participating teams below also began to echo their words and praised the fairness of the game.

They said that in addition to trying to please Liu Ji from the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, they also offered a bunch of benefits to Da Zhou.

As for whether this punishment is fair, no one has really considered it.

It's just a small corner. It's still difficult to pass the preliminary round. As for the final, I haven't even thought about it.

"Quiet!!"
