According to me, the correct answer is ordering because;

Obeying means - to accept the order.

Ordering means- to give the order.

@All.

I think is that obeying means (to accept the order or to follow the order).

And according to this scenario, the right answer should be refuse means (not follow).

Refuse is the EXACT opposite of the word "Obeying".

Please correct me, if I'm wrong.

In my opinion, refusing is correct. It is because refusing is nearly the opposite of ordering. Its proper antonym, by the way, is disobeying but it is missing, so refusing is correct then.

On the other hand, ordering means to order some for obligation, and Obeying means to follow the orders. Both have their own positive explanations which don't contradict together as antonym words demand.
