Chapter 88: Promoted to the Top Four (2)

  Twenty-five young disciples participated in the third round of the competition, and there were still some who would be exempt from fighting, but it was no longer Yi Feng. This round he would be competing against a fellow disciple at the mid-Golden Dan stage.

  Lu Changfeng's opponent was a fellow Jin Dan late-stage cultivator with similar strength. Zhao Gang, on the other hand, was quite unlucky and encountered Yun Shuang, who had a high chance of winning the championship. His defeat was without any suspense, and he himself did not have any hope of victory.

  The twelve matches were divided into three batches, and Yi Feng was scheduled to be in the last batch. Lu Changfeng and Zhao Gang would both compete in the first batch of matches.

  The match had not yet begun, and Xing Chenzi was already at the edge of the arena where Lu Changfeng was, when Yi Feng arrived, he said: "Fourth brother, it's fine if I just keep an eye on things here, you go to your second senior brother's place, if he gets injured, there will be someone to support him."

  Xingchenzi had no expectations for Zhao Gang either, but was also afraid of him getting hurt. Originally, he wanted to advise his second disciple to give up the competition directly, but was afraid of hurting his second disciple's self-esteem, so he didn't say much.

  Let Zhao Gang admit defeat to a little girl who has been practicing for less than a hundred years, Xingchenzi estimates that Zhao Gang will not agree, and may even go all out in the competition because of this, and the result is likely to be no better than Ling Hua.

  Yi Feng received his master's order and took that Yun Xiao little girl very seriously, so he went with a smile.

  Yingfeng's popularity was still high, when Yifeng arrived, the fighting arena had already been surrounded by crowds, and it was impossible to get through.

  Looking at the crowd shoulder to shoulder, Yifeng helplessly smiled bitterly and had no choice but to stand silently in the distance as before.

  Zhao Gang stood on the stage, his expression calm and smiling, which made Yi Feng very puzzled. Logically speaking, this battle that was bound to be lost, he encountered such a strong opponent, should be extremely disappointed, right?

  With the appearance of Yunfeng, a burst of applause erupted from all directions, and that mischievous little girl continued to wave at the onlookers, making it look like a superstar's stage show.

  When...

  The law enforcement elder seemed unimpressed with this scene, and as soon as Yunfeng stepped onto the stage, he struck the bell to signal the start of the competition.

  The audience below fell silent in an instant, everyone had a look of concentration and anticipation, afraid to miss any movement of Yunfeng.

  Yunfeng took a step forward and slightly bowed her head, saying: "Little sister Yunfeng, please instruct me, Brother Zhao."

  Zhao Gang indeed had the demeanor of a great general, but his words were disappointing to everyone. He humbly said: "Junior sister Yunfeng has reached her current level in less than a hundred years, and I truly admire her. As for today's battle, even if we don't fight, I'll still congratulate junior sister Yunfeng on her promotion."

  As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Gang walked down from the stage amidst everyone's astonished gaze. No matter how you looked at it, he didn't seem like a defeated person, but rather someone who knew when to advance and retreat, a wise and discerning individual.

  "This guy isn't a brainless person after all, he's quite decisive. He's also maintained the relationship and ended this inevitable defeat with dignity and without any harm. Leaving like this is still better than being made a fool of like Ling Hua." Yi Feng didn't despise Zhang Gang's cowardly behavior, although he knew Zhao Gang must be resentful.

  However, after Zhao Gang stepped down, when he saw Yi Feng, he coldly smiled and said: "Sorry about that little brother, didn't let you see big brother's joke, haha..."

  Having said that, he simply walked away, leaving Yi Feng stunned.

  "I said you're a piece of plank!" Yifeng cursed loudly after regaining his composure.

  Lu Changfeng's match had just begun, and at this moment, it was a fierce battle between the two sides, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

  After a fierce battle, Lu Changfeng relied on his powerful and overbearing fire attribute attack to narrowly defeat his opponent with one move, knocking them out of the arena and earning a spot in the next round.

  Originally, Xing Chenzi was going to let Lu Changfeng quickly return and rest to recover his strength, but Lu Changfeng hypocritically said: "Little Shidi's first participation in the martial arts tournament has already entered the third round. As a big Shixiong, even if I'm seriously injured and dying, I should still be cheering for Little Shidi on the sidelines."
