Chapter 246 - Admit Defeat!
Following Xiao Hong"s departure, w.a.n.g Chen"s gaze also turned to the ten people from the refined Saint Academy. Four of them were directly ignored by him and he only looked at the remaining six people. His gaze was filled with deep fear.
These six people had also come to the five academies grand compet.i.tion to dominate the rankings.
They had come, so how could they compete in this compet.i.tion!
In the five academies compet.i.tion, only ten people would be decided. If these six people all went up, who knew how many geniuses would be trampled down. When the final ranking was announced, it would take up more than half of the people. w.a.n.g Chen had a premonition that it would shock the entire South continent!
The most important thing was...
"Next, I will fight the sixth among the refined sages, Xiao Pan."
w.a.n.g Chen cried out bitterly in his heart.
When he was in the Starfield, he had already been thrashed by her three times. This was fine. After all, not many people in the Starfield knew about them. They only knew that they came from the Beichen College, but they did not know who was who.
It was Wu An City now, the place where the entire South continent"s five academies would compete!
He was even the third place in the Northern Star Academy.
He had been thrashed by someone in this compet.i.tion, and he was about to lose all his face!
w.a.n.g Chen shrunk his neck and furrowed his brows. Looking at the six people who were standing calmly, he suddenly thought of Xiao Pan"s battle prowess. His entire body quivered, and he immediately felt weak and powerless.
He had thought that he would be able to s.h.i.+ne too brightly in the south continent, but he had not expected to meet these six people again.
Against Xiao Pan!
No fight, no fight. This kind of pervert, whoever wanted to fight, would fight.
In any case, he would not be able to beat him, and he did not want to be beaten up again.
Next, it would be up to the refined saint to see how long he could last.
"Beichen is third. He finally has a character of the highest level. Tsk, I really don"t know what kind of grace he will have."
Regarding the North Star Academy, which was ranked third in the south continent, everyone was still rather optimistic.
Even though it was only third place. However, in the past few years, North Star Academy"s strength had been steadily rising, and there was a faint tendency for it to compete with the West Star Academy, which was ranked second. As the third place of North Star Academy, it was likely that this w.a.n.g Chen"s strength was extraordinary.
"That Middle Saint Academy is really unlucky. They have just won one match, and now they are going to lose again. With this loss, three out of ten will be eliminated. If there are a few more matches, they will be the first to be eliminated."
"Hahaha, otherwise, why would they come here for the fifth place?"
The crowd laughed too much. They sighed and shook their heads at the Zhongsheng Academy. They did not have much hope.
For the crowd, being able to defeat the goalkeeper of other schools was already the limit of the Zhongsheng Academy. At most, they would be the first in the Zhongsheng Academy. To be able to defeat the seventh and eighth in the academy was already very impressive.
Now, the one who came out was only the sixth in the academy. The ninth and tenth were already eliminated. How much more powerful could the sixth place be?
One could imagine the outcome of the battle!
"We"ll just have to see how w.a.n.g Chen displays his might."
Everyone was filled with antic.i.p.ation. Their eyes were bright as they raised their heads to look at the fighting ring.
On the other side, the sixth refined saint, Xiao Pan, had a smile in her beautiful eyes. Her eyebrows were raised, and a hint of a smile hung on the corner of her mouth.
She had a vague impression of her opponent w.a.n.g Chen. He seemed to be a defeated opponent.
She didn"t know if his strength had improved after this period of time.
Holding her sword, Xiao Pan walked up to the dueling ring expectantly. She swept her gaze across the dueling ring and fixed her gaze on w.a.n.g Chen.
w.a.n.g Chen felt his entire body tense up when he felt the gaze on him.
He was expressionless, but his forehead was already covered in sweat. The fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched tightly, and his heart was trembling in fear.
"She"s just a fourth ranked academy. She beat her so easily!"
At the moment, Chun Yang had a proud look on his face. While he waved his hand at the cheering crowd around him, he gave w.a.n.g Chen a push, signaling for him to end the battle quickly.
Lu Chun Yang looked at w.a.n.g Chen with encouragement. This fellow disciple of his still had some strength. Although he was only ranked third, he would have to put in a lot of effort in order to win.
Wouldn"t it be a piece of cake for him to go up against a middle saint academy whose ranking was constantly dropping?
Right now, w.a.n.g Chen was pushed out. Unable to avoid it, he leaped onto the fighting ring.
When he cupped his hands, a faint surge of spiritual power rose from her body. She circulated her Huangji technique, and spiritual energy was emitted from her 48,000 acupoints and apertures. A sword intent had been infused into the body of the sword and was hidden in the sheath. She continued to acc.u.mulate power.
In the span of a breath, she had already adjusted her aura to the best. The terrifying power hidden in the scabbard even leaked out a little, directly enveloping w.a.n.g Chen"s body.
Once w.a.n.g Chen returned the salute, she would immediately pull out her sword and unleash a thunderous strike!
w.a.n.g Chen"s eyelids twitched, and he froze on the spot.
Of course, he could tell that Xiao Pan had already made preparations. She would only wait for him to return the salute before attacking.
The key was that he did not dare to return the salute.
He froze for a long time.
Xiao Pan snorted and frowned unhappily. She glared at Chen and w.a.n.g Fan. This person did not return the salute, causing her to keep her hand in the air. She felt a little numb.
Since she did not return the salute, Xiao Pan immediately turned her hand and placed her red finger on the hilt of the sword.
Her eyes were cold. She decided to increase her strength and teach w.a.n.g Chen a lesson later.
"I"m not going to fight anymore!"
w.a.n.g Chen"s eyelids were twitching uncontrollably. Mo Tai"s fear had completely overwhelmed him, and all the hairs on his body stood on end.
Seeing that Xiao Pan was about to make a move, he shouted loudly, and with a flash of golden light, he leaped off the stage.
He was not going to fight anymore. He was going to admit defeat to whoever he wanted!
This time, even the host, who was used to such situations, was shocked. He stood rooted to the ground in shock.
Beichen was ranked third, but he actually admitted defeat to a sixth-ranked refined saint cultivator?
The Floating Island was stunned for a moment before an uproar broke out!
"What"s going on?"
"Why would the student of Beichen Academy admit defeat to a refined Saint Academy"s student?"
The entire floating island buzzed, and the crowd burst into an uproar.
w.a.n.g Chen"s act of admitting defeat was not expected by anyone there. After all, he was the teacher who had been promoted to the top of the examination.
He hadn"t even fought a single battle, and he had already given up his qualifications and eliminated himself?
A few of the teachers from the other academies frowned. They were extremely puzzled as they looked at the teachers and princ.i.p.als of the Beichen Academy.
w.a.n.g Chen was ranked third. It could be said that he was the trump card of the Beichen Academy.
Beichen had given up his trump card.
What was he planning?
However, the people from the other academies were puzzled. The teachers and princ.i.p.als of Beichen Academy who had come along with them also had ashen faces. They glared at w.a.n.g Chen, who had stepped down from the stage and returned to the group of ten.
w.a.n.g Chen"s actions had caught them off guard.
Even if he had fought with w.a.n.g Chen for a match, fought for tens to hundreds of rounds, and said that he had admitted defeat, they would still feel slightly better.
If he were to admit defeat now, could it be that Beichen was still afraid of the refined Saint Academy?
Immediately, one of Beichen"s vice princ.i.p.als snorted coldly. His gaze swept over the smiling and silent refined Saint Academy princ.i.p.al, and his gaze was cold.
With the cultivation of the few teachers and princ.i.p.als, they could definitely tell that w.a.n.g Chen was acting like a mouse seeing a cat. He was extremely fearful of the sixth contestant of the refined Saint Academy, Xiao Pan.
Was it really necessary for a mere middle saint academy that was getting worse year by year?
Lu Chunyang, who was ranked second in Beichen, took a few steps forward. Irritated, he pointed his finger at w.a.n.g Chen, who had returned with his head lowered. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he sized w.a.n.g Chen up. It was as if he was looking at a spy wearing the skin of Beichen Academy.
