“Are you serious?”
Kong Feichen found it hard to accept, his brows furrowed.
“Yes.”
Yang Jing nodded slightly, without giving any explanation.
“You’re not my match.”
“In our usual state you’re right, but I’m not so sure if I use the Twofold Divine Technique.”
“Is that necessary?”
Yang Jing didn’t respond to Kong Feichen’s challenge, which angered Kong Feichen and made him clench his fist. Nevertheless, he managed to cool down in the end.
“I understand.”
After saying that, Kong Feichen raised his hand, admitting defeat straightaway.
There was an uproar among the spectators.
The teacher in charge of judging the Cinnabarite Institute match immediately got on the stage to check if there was any hidden reason behind Kong Feichen’s resignation, but Kong Feichen simply stated he didn’t want to continue the fight.
Although he was aware that there must be more to it, it was a difficult situation for the judge to handle especially when a student voluntarily admitted defeat in such a crucial competition as the semi-finals.
He then turned to the Real Man in Red Robe for guidance.
The responsibility lay with the top brass of the academy.
“Can I ask why you admitted defeat?”
The Real Man in Red Robe seated in his position, his expression calm, his tone filled with a seriousness distinct from when he previously questioned Chen Mobai and Gong Xiangyu.
“If she had gone all out, my chances of winning would be slim. If we both ended up injuring each other, wouldn’t that benefit the other participant during the finals?”
Confronting the Real Man in the Gold Core, Kong Feichen met his gaze squarely, candidly stating his reason.
“Well, in that case, as you wish.”
If it was his disciple or a descendant, the Real Man in the Red Robe would undoubtedly chastise them, but since it was an unrelated disciple, he simply nodded after querying, signaling the adjudicating teacher to announce the result.
“Since Kong Feichen has forfeited and admitted defeat, the winner is Yang Jing.”
As soon as the result was announced, the hundreds of viewers who were crowding around the stage started to chat incessantly. Nearly 99% of them didn’t believe in the reason given by Kong Feichen.
“Could it be due to love?”
“These two come from the same high school, both possessing Different Spiritual Roots, they might have fallen in love a long time ago.” “This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to enter the four great Daoist Academies, which could change one’s destiny. To give up for a woman is simply absurd!”
Though many had regretful expressions, among the young students, there were quite a number who admired Kong Feichen’s potential reason for forfeiting, due to love.
“Old Chen, if you were in Kong Feichen’s position right now, and your opponent was Qing Nu, what would you do?”
Suddenly, Lu Hongsheng couldn’t help but ask.
“I will fight with all my might!”
Without any hesitation, Chen Mobai spoke out his innermost thoughts.
Entry into one of the four great Daoist Academies was like a chance to ascend to the heavens.
Moreover, his relationship with Qjng Nu was purely platonic and didn’t reach that level of intensity.
Besides, there’s still an abundance of time to explore romantic love.
If one succeeds in Foundation Establishment, there will be more than two hundred years to look for a spouse. If one is lucky enough to reach Core Formation, even Nascent Soul, the lifespan would exceed a thousand years. Chen Mobai’s dream was to complete his immortal cultivation and to take charge of the three main halls of the cultivation sect.
I m beginning to doubt, did Qjng Nu actually chase after you?” Hearing Chen Mobai’s candid remark, Lu Hongsheng couldn’t help but say a few words in admiration, which earned him an eye roll from Chen Mobai. He already said they were just friends.
Chen Mobai saw that after descending from the stage, Kong Feichen and Yang
Jing joined Qjng Nu. He wanted to ask what was going on.
Didn’t they agree to meet in the finals?
Why did you break your promise?
Who am I supposed to vent all my pent-up desire for victory on?
“Please welcome the two participants for the next round.”
At that moment, the judging teacher on stage made the announcement. Chen
Mobai had no choice but to suppress his doubts for now.
Yan Feng made an impressive entrance as always, stepping lightly as if on air and basking in the cheers of the crowd as he landed in the center of the stage. Chen Mobai walked up, taking his time, each step consuming half a minute. After he had taken his position, Yan Feng frowned slightly. He had been all geared up, ready to defeat his lucky opponent in one go and showcase his undeniable supremacy in this Magic Duel.
Yet, he had to wait for Chen Mobai, who dawdled, walking slowly for half a minute, which dissipated half of his morale.
“Please advise.”
After Chen Mobai ascended the stage, he greeted with a bow, and out of respect, Yan Feng had no choice but to return the courtesy.
“Begin.”
After the adjudicating teacher uttered that remark, he immediately withdrew from the stage.
Whiz!
Without uttering any words, Yan Feng raised his right hand and with two fingers bunched in a sword-fighting position, he unleashed a formidable Finger Sword technique towards Chen Mobai, despite the fact that he had lost half of his built-up momentum.
Chen Mobai’s Water Elemental Shield responded instantly, forming a spiral wave of light that deflected the powerful Finger Sword which was aimed at him.
A collision of magic spells.
Bang!
The crowd felt their eardrums vibrate slightly as though they had heard the sound of muffled thunder. The vortex of water Chen Mobai had formed failed to fully neutralize all the energy from Yan Feng’s Finger Sword technique. Chen Mobai was then forced to cast the Wooden Shield charm once more.
But the Wooden Shield, radiant in its aqua hue, could only hold up for a second before it shattered. In the end, Chen Mobai had to reconstitute the Water Elemental Shield. Deploying a three-layered defense, he finally fended off Yan Feng’s first Finger Sword attack.
“Not bad, you are the first person in this Magic Duel who has blocked one of my sword strikes.”
Retracting his Finger Sword, Yan Feng’s unrevealed surprise managed to break through his icy countenance.
“If I’m not mistaken, your strength lies in that sword strike. As long as 1 can block this sword strike, no matter how many more you throw at me, be it ten, hundred or thousand, their power can’t surpass this first strike.”
As Chen Mobai spoke, a charm was held between his fingers, and six Spirit Qi Long Arrows shot out like bullets from a gun barrel, aiming at Yan Feng’s head chest, and four limbs.
“Hehl”
Yan Feng sneered and raised his right hand Finger Sword to intercept the six
Spirit Qi Long Arrows flying towards him.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
With six explosions, the Green Arrow Talisman was easily broken by his single Finger Sword, exploding into a sky full of spiritual light and dissipating over the stage.
There’s no need for you to probe. After reaching Qi Cultivation Level 7,1 started focusing on the ‘Thirteen Swords of the Sky Sea’.”
“This sword technique, starting from Qi Cultivation Level 7, each level allows one to condense a Sword Qi. I’m currently at Qi Cultivation Level 9 but have condensed four Sword Qis.”
What you’ve just blocked was my first sword strike. There are three more to come. If you can block all of them, I will admit defeat.”
With that, Yan Feng raised his right hand, index and middle fingers together again, revealing a sword charm at his fingertips.
Chen Mobai was unable to identify the charm, as nobody in the previous six rounds had been able to force Yan Feng to make a second move, let alone use a charm, so there was no information at all.
Woosh!
The Sword Charm burned, and a dim radiance lit up at the tip of Yan Feng’s fingers, transforming into a half-meter long, arm-thick Sword Qi at the blink of an eye.
The second sword attack has been unleashed!
