Chen Yuanshuo didn't explain too much, just one sentence made Gu Zheng completely isolated from the strong people participating in the war.

And the meaning of this sentence is obvious, their predecessors, even people who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years, look down on Gu Zheng, a backward generation, and are unwilling to fight side by side with him.

The so-called strategy outside the country is actually marginalizing Gu Zheng and will not give him a chance to fight.

In other words, if the nine veteran powerhouses couldn't defeat the Beastmaster together, what was the use of Duogu Zheng's strength? And if the Beastmaster was invincible, Gu Zheng would have no chance to make a move.

Moreover, the ten powerhouses gathered in the Xuanbing Giant City so early, originally to get to know each other and familiarize themselves with each other's strength and means, so as to hone the method of cooperating with the siege.

Now that Gu Zheng is excluded, he will not have this opportunity, and it will be even more difficult to make a difference in the decisive battle.

After Chen Yuanshuo finished speaking, he closed his eyes, obviously not giving Gu Zheng another chance to fight.

The other eight powerhouses present also did not speak, making him even more lonely and out of place with everyone.

Gu Zheng didn't ask out loud, just glanced at Gu Fengli, who didn't squint, and then looked at Tang Xuanji, the ancestor of the Tang clan, who was sitting in a precarious position.

These two people, one has old grievances with Gu Zheng, and the other has a good relationship with Gu Zheng.

Gu Fengli didn't glance at Gu Zheng, but the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, implying sarcasm.

Tang Xuanji didn't open his eyes, but he seemed to know that Gu Zheng was looking at him, so he just said calmly: "Go, this is the opinion of all of us, on the day of the decisive battle, we will have you present." ”

Gu Zheng took a deep look at the nine people present, remembering everyone's faces, but he couldn't see through the thoughts of these nine old monsters.

He didn't say another word, turned and walked away, not much frustration or loss in his heart, just confused.

"If you really don't want me to participate in the war, why would you waste such an important place? If you want me to participate in the war, why do you want me to fight alone? Could it be that something has happened in the past two days?" Gu Zheng secretly doubted in his heart.

The ten powerhouses selected by the mainland to participate in the decisive battle were all jointly finalized by the two major alliances. It's just that after the top ten powerhouses are settled, they are no longer constrained by the alliance, after all, these ten people are the pinnacle of the mainland.

Now, nine of the top ten powerhouses have a unified opinion, and if Gu Zheng is excluded, even if the major forces in the alliance have opinions, it will not help.

At most, it can only keep Gu Zheng from being kicked out of the ten-man team, but it can't affect the decision-making of the nine people before and after the decisive battle.

Gu Zheng soon returned to the Icelandic restaurant, but did not practice swords, but silently waited for visitors to come to the door.

He believed that someone would come to his door to solve his doubts, but he didn't know if it would be the representative of the alliance or someone from the other nine powerhouses.

It wasn't until the sun went down that Gu Zheng waited silently for nearly an hour before waiting for the first visitor, Gu Fengli of the Gu Clan's Sword Mansion.

The long table was already full of sumptuous special wine and dishes, but when he saw someone coming, Gu Zheng waved his hand very unceremoniously and accepted it. For this person, there is no need for Gu Zheng to be polite with him.

"It seems that you don't welcome me very much. Gu Fengli sat at the other end of the long table by himself, sitting upright, and couldn't pick out the slightest exceedance at a glance.

"Are you not wanting me to go to war?" Gu Zheng had no interest in greeting him, and asked bluntly.

Gu Fengli didn't get angry, just smiled and said: "I'm just proposing, although some people oppose it, as long as half of them support it." Besides, how can you be up to a big responsibility if you can't hold your breath like you?"

"Then you are here to show off your power to me?" Gu Zheng knew that this person was scheming, not like such a superficial person, so he had to be tempted.

"I'm just here to tell you that you're not qualified to be our equal. You should have seen the Extreme Picture Scroll of Kendo, and you should know that I spared your life last time. Gu Fengli said in a deep voice.

"So what?" Gu Zheng was noncommittal.

"Return the bone ring to me, and fall into my hands in front of the world, and I can help you get back what you want. Gu Fengli stared at Gu Zheng and said seriously.

Gu Zheng sneered, he somewhat understood what Gu Fengli wanted. What this man wants is probably not the priceless bone ring, but his undefeated name.

Thinking of what Gu Fengli said in the message array, this person is upright on the surface, but in fact he is ruthless and conceited, and he cherishes his reputation to the extreme.

Now that Gu Zheng has stepped on Gu Fengli's position as one of the top ten powerhouses in the mainland, for Gu Fengli, I am afraid it is a great shame that will be difficult to erase for the rest of his life.

Gu Zheng then thought that Gu Fengli attached so much importance to fame, I am afraid that it was not just a false name, but because of his huge ambition.

Su Hao once said that the spirit elephant above the earth elephant is the realm of kings, and it needs to use the power of the idol to absorb the thoughts of the living soul to cultivate the soul. And one of the keys to this is fame, how can a discredited person get a life idea?

Losing to a junior like Gu Zheng is the biggest stain on Gu Fengli's life, and he needs to erase it in order to have a smooth ride after becoming a king. Otherwise, Gu Zheng may become his biggest obstacle in the future.

Although Gu Zheng himself doesn't care about this, people's hearts are different, and Gu Fengli is a very different person from him.

"Let's go, if you have a chance to fight again, you can try it yourself. Thinking about the reason, Gu Zheng didn't say anything more, and directly issued an eviction order.

Gu Fengli was neither happy nor angry, but after sneering, he turned around and left.

After Gu Fengli left, Gu Zheng unexpectedly waited for five visitors, Wang Dongqing of the Eastern Regions Sword Mansion, Zhao Zihuan of the Burial Flower Sword Mansion, Bai Lingfeng of the Western Regions Scattered Cultivation, Ji Huangtian of the Yunyu Sword Mansion, and Qin Fuyu, the ancestor of the Qin Sword Mansion.

These five people came alone, but their intentions were almost the same, and they all expressed their support for Gu Zheng to participate in the war, but it was a pity that they could not change the final decision.

At this moment, Gu Zheng truly realized what it means to be unpredictable. Among these five people, someone must have lied, and some people told the truth, but Gu Zheng was not familiar with them, and he couldn't see through these old monsters, so it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the false.

As for the five strong men whose strength and status are not inferior to Gu Zheng, why they made a special trip to explain to Gu Zheng, he probably had some guesses.

These powerhouses may not be afraid of Gu Zheng's current strength, but they have to be afraid of Gu Zheng's future potential.

If a powerhouse in the same realm in his early twenties has a grudge against them or the forces behind them, then after they become ancients, who can still resist Gu Zheng's revenge?

"People's hearts are like ghosts, no one can trust each other, isn't the decisive battle with the beast king a joke?" Gu Zheng was even more worried, and even secretly glad that he was excluded from the list of strong people participating in the war.

"Gu Xiaoyou, after seeing them, are you even more confused?" When it was time for the third watch, the last visitor came late, with a bit of jokingness.
