After Rong Ruihan left the Heng Yue Sect's seat, he did not leave the competition venue directly. Instead, he turned a corner and came to the Xuyang Sect's territory, where he found the people of Lintian Peak who were sitting together.
"Brother Wei, do you mind if I sit here?" Rong Ruihan's calm voice sounded above Wei Gaolang's head, and there happened to be an empty seat next to Wei Gaolang.
"Eh?! Brother Rong, why are you here?" Wei Gaolang then realized that there was someone else beside him, "Sit down, sit down, this was originally Senior Sister Xiaomo's place, but I think she will go back to the inn directly after the game. "
Rong Ruihan smiled and said, "Really, thank you."
Wei Gaolang waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "No thank you, no thank you. I also said that senior sister Xiaomo's friends are my friends."
The corners of Rong Ruihan's lips curved slightly again, and he sat down without being too polite.
Thinking that Jun Xiaomo was sitting here just now, an extremely subtle feeling arose in his heart. Ignoring this feeling, he looked towards the stage. At this time, the contestants from Hengyuezong also walked to the competition stage.
Liang Yulong stood on the stage, pursed his lips tightly, and looked at Jun Xiaomo coldly.
Yes, silence. His talent is not very high, so he only reached the eighth level of Qi training in his twenties, but he is very diligent. Unlike other brothers and sisters who like to use pills to improve their cultivation, he has practiced these levels in earnest. The ones that come up have higher gold content.
This time is his chance. If he can get the top three in the junior group, even if his cultivation talent is not high enough, he still hopes to get the favor of the high-level cultivation sect and leave the hell place of Hengyuezong.
However, fate seemed to play huge jokes on him again and again. Even though he had worked so hard, it still wanted to push him into a desperate situation.
If he loses to the girl on the opposite side who is at the fifth level of Qi training today, then he will forever become a big joke in the world of cultivation, and no high-level sect will accept his "joke" anymore.
However, if he does not lose to Jun Xiaomo, Dai Yue has a hundred ways to torture him and make him suffer in dire straits.
Who told Dai Yue to have a "good father"? Liang Yulong thought mockingly in his heart, Dai Yanfeng was still his master, so he had no ability to resist.
Forget it, it has already been decided, right? No amount of resentment can change the fact that someone controls his destiny.
Liang Yulong's heart sank, he clenched his fists, and a trace of broken humiliation flashed in his eyes.
Jun Xiaomo stood opposite Liang Yulong, frowning slightly - was it an illusion, she felt that the other party's mood seemed a little wrong
At this moment, the chief judge stood up, knocked the silver bell next to him, and said: "I declare that the competition officially begins..."
"Judges." Liang Yulong suddenly interrupted the chief judge. He no longer faced Jun Xiaomo, but turned to face all the judges, bowed, and said, "I give up the competition, I admit defeat."
Liang Yulong's voice was calm and waveless, and it was transmitted through the amplification array around the competition stage. For a moment, there was a dead silence in the audience.
Everyone looked at Liang Yulong on the stage in stunned silence, almost thinking that they were not only hallucinating, but also hallucinating.
Why are the people from Heng Yue Sect and Xu Yang Sect more crazy than the other? Even if Jun Xiaomo overestimated his ability and ran to the competition platform to seek abuse, how could Liang Yulong choose to abstain from voting in such a situation where he had an absolute advantage
Is this stupid or crazy
A moment later, an angry shout rang out from the audience: "Liang Yulong, what are you doing! Why are you abstaining!"
This angry shout mixed with powerful pressure was transmitted to the competition platform, but was blocked by the formation on the competition platform.
There was no need to look back, Liang Yulong also knew very well who made this angry shout, except Dai Yanfeng, who didn't think so.
But what else could he do? A self-deprecating smile appeared on Liang Yulong's lips. Dai Yanfeng's daughter Dai Yue asked him to pretend to lose to a fifth-level qi-training monk, so that he could personally repair Jun Xiaomo in the next game.
He is at the eighth level of Qi training and Jun Xiaomo is at the fifth level. How can he "pretend"? Should he pretend to fall and let Jun Xiaomo succeed
It’s so ridiculous to think about it!
Liang Yulong thought to himself that since he had to lose no matter what, he might as well lose more simply. As for why he gave up, let those people guess.
When Dai Yanfeng saw that his disciple didn't reply, he couldn't help but feel even more angry. He yelled at the competition platform: "Liang Yulong, if you don't compete, you can go directly to the Punishment Hall to be punished when you come down!"
Dai Yue's face didn't look very good either. She wanted Liang Yulong to lose, but she didn't want her defeat to be so flawed.
Moreover, before "losing", Jun Xiaomo should be seriously injured at least.
What does that count now? If you just admit defeat like this, the elders of the Punishment Hall will ask, what should Liang Yulong do if he shakes himself out? I'm afraid it will drag her down to the point where she will also be punished, right? After all, her father is only a great elder, so he may not be able to protect her in this matter.
Dai Yue cursed Liang Yulong countless times in her heart.
In the seat of Xuyang Sect, He Zhang, who was sitting silently at the main seat, also looked very unhappy. He used a third of the packet of medicinal powder, but he did not let Jun Xiaomo run off the stage unscathed.
Now that I think about it, the effect of the medicine is about to take effect, but the opponent on the Hengyuezong side suddenly said that he couldn't compete and took the initiative to admit defeat. So what effect does his arrangement have? These medicinal powders are just wasted!
He Zhang was anxious and angry. He really wished he could run to the competition stage in person and directly stimulate the demonic energy in Jun Xiaomo's body.
The judges will not delve into the reasons why the players abstained. Although it is incredible that Liang Yulong abstained when he had an absolute advantage, they will respect the players' personal choices and will not interfere too much.
"Liang Yulong, are you sure? You choose to abstain and take the initiative to admit defeat to contestant Jun Xiaomo?" the chief judge asked again in a calm tone.
"I am sure."
"I object."
Almost at the same time that Liang Yulong said "I am sure", Jun Xiaomo also said the words "I object" opposite him.
Liang Yulong immediately opened his eyes wide and looked at Jun Xiaomo in disbelief.
Jun Xiaomo curled her lips at him calmly and said, "I won't accept your surrender. I hope to compete with you in an open and fair manner."
Liang Yulong frowned and said, "Are you a fool?"
If you weren't a fool, why didn't you take advantage of such a huge bargain and insist on competing with yourself? How could a person with level five Qi training win over someone with level eight Qi training
Those who also thought Jun Xiaomo was a "fool" were also the spectators outside the venue who were paying attention to the development of the situation.
Jun Xiaomo smiled calmly and said, "I'm not stupid, I just don't care much about winning or losing. I want to enjoy a hearty and hearty battle. Are you willing to give me this chance?"
Liang Yulong's eyes widened slightly. It was the first time he heard someone say, "The competition is not about winning or losing, it's just about enjoying the process."
However, looking at Jun Xiaomo's clear and dark eyes, Liang Yulong felt for no reason that what the other party said was a fact.
She really wanted to enjoy the competition.
What a strange guy, Liang Yulong commented to Jun Xiaomo in his heart, but he couldn't help but feel a little moved by Jun Xiaomo's proposal.
Liang Yulong's fist tightened, then tightened, and finally, it was squeezed tightly, and his fingers were embedded in the palm of his hand.
As if he had made a difficult decision, he closed his eyes, took a breath, and when he opened them again, his eyes were calmer.
"Okay, then let's have a fun competition regardless of winning or losing."
Liang Yulong felt that a person with Jun Xiaomo's kind of mind would never give in easily, nor would she easily accept the "victory" given to her by others.
In this case, he also respects the other party's choice and truly competes with the other party.
As for Dai Yue, how do you explain it? Never mind her! Anyway, Dai Yanfeng just said that he would be sent to the Punishment Hall no matter what.
Liang Yulong completely cut off all respect for Dai Yanfeng as his master in his heart, leaving only the cold title "Dai Yanfeng".
Jun Xiaomo saw the fighting spirit in Liang Yulong's eyes, and she smiled with satisfaction.
She had an intuition that this person's character was not very bad, and since he had to admit defeat voluntarily, he must have some hidden agenda, so she didn't mind helping him.
What's more, she really wanted to have a fun competition - she wanted to know what level her combat strength could reach without the help of talismans and formations.
As for winning or losing, she really doesn't care. Of course, it would be better if she can win, so that those noisy people can shut their mouths!
The conversation between Liang Yulong and Jun Xiaomo was also heard by the judges, so after confirming their choices again, the chief judge announced that the competition would continue in half a quarter of an hour.
The reason for continuing after half a quarter of an hour is to give the players on the court time to adjust their mentality.
After making the decision, the heavy stone weighing on Liang Yulong's heart was finally let go.
There was still a little time before the game officially started. Liang Yulong's eyes fell on Jun Xiaomo who was standing opposite with a faint smile on his face from beginning to end.
Jun Xiaomo was not looking at him, but took out a fiery red whip and played with it in his hand. His calm and leisurely look did not look like he was on the competition stage, but on the way to an outing.
Unlike the other male cultivators, Liang Yulong had never really paid attention to Jun Xiaomo. Even though he had heard his fellow disciples lamenting Jun Xiaomo's beauty in private, he didn't really want to know how good Jun Xiaomo was. "Gorgeous".
For him, there are only two labels on Jun Xiaomo, one is "Level 5 Qi Lian" and the other is "Disciple of Xuyang Sect".
The combination of these two labels formed the impression of "not a strong opponent" in Liang Yulong's mind.
However, now that he was observing Jun Xiaomo up close, he had to sigh that this little girl really gave people a stunning feeling.
This kind of stunningness not only refers to her appearance, but also includes her temperament. The red dress she wore gave off a gorgeous and cold feeling, making people seem to see a gorgeous fire jumping in front of their eyes. But he was kept three meters away by the prohibitive temperature.
Especially when she carelessly plays with the whip in her hand, it makes people feel like they are transformed into the whip in her hand, enjoying the feeling of the white fingertips wrapped around it.
Liang Yulong closed his eyes and blocked his sight of Jun Xiaomo.
At this moment, a "ding" bell rang, and the chief judge's voice came from not far away -
"I now announce that the third match on the seventh day of the intermediate martial arts qualifying competition has officially begun."
Liang Yulong suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Jun Xiaomo with only blazing fighting spirit in his eyes.
Jun Xiaomo also curled up his lips, picked up the whip, and swung it on the ground gently.
Liang Yulong took the lead in attacking Jun Xiaomo, but Jun Xiaomo quickly raised his whip to block him!
"Don't worry, since you just helped me, I won't be too harsh on you." Liang Yulong whispered to Jun Xiaomo at the moment of the fight.
He felt that with his eighth level of Qi training, even if he defeated Jun Xiaomo, he would still be defeated by force, so he planned to take it easy and satisfy Jun Xiaomo's desire to fight.
Jun Xiaomo raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, could this guy still want to "give in" to him
The curve of the corners of his lips deepened a little, and Jun Xiaomo's eyes suddenly became sharp.
She felt that it was necessary to let the other party know in person what would happen if he underestimated the enemy too much.
