Chapter 352: Chapter 352 I admit defeat “Hmm, Xia Liu indeed challenged beyond his Rank and won convincingly.” “If this young man can receive further cultivation, his future is absolutely immeasurable.” … Seeing Sect Master Bai hesitating, the Earth-Rank Warriors around started analyzing aloud. “Family Head Ye, your clansman is extremely talented. I wonder, have you considered letting him join the Immeasurable Sect?” After a moment of silence, Bai Shixiong asked with a half-smile. “Ah! Congratulations, Family Head Ye!” “Hehe, congratulations, Family Head Ye. Sect Master Bai hasn’t taken any disciples for years, and this year he has made an exception!” “He is truly the luckiest, being able to join the Immeasurable Sect!” … Hearing that Bai Shixiong took the initiative to recruit Xia Liu, the Family Heads of the surrounding martial families were filled with envy. This had a different meaning than joining the Immeasurable Sect through normal selection. As soon as Xia Liu became a disciple of the Immeasurable Sect, the Ye Family’s fortunes would rise dramatically. Having the support of a powerhouse like the Immeasurable Sect is the dream of countless martial families. Today, however, they could only look on enviously. They wished their own families had such a monstrously talented youth so that Bai Shixiong would also break the norm and actively recruit them. Compared to the envy and excitement of the others, Ye Yongyuan felt nothing but bitterness. Who was Xia Liu? A powerful fighter who defeated five Earth-Rank Warriors on his own and emerged victorious. Moreover, his origins were a mystery; it seemed impossible for him to join the Immeasurable Sect. “Sect Master Bai, Xia Liu is somewhat arrogant. Whether he wants to join the Immeasurable Sect, we would still need to ask for his opinion,” said Ye Yongyuan. Whoosh! Upon hearing Ye Yongyuan’s words, the Earth-Rank Warriors who were unfamiliar with Xia Liu began to tremble. Ye Yongyuan, the head of the Ye Family, was admitting his inability to control Xia Liu—it was simply unheard of. Moreover, to refuse Bai Shixiong in front of so many people, how could Sect Master Bai maintain his dignity? Even if Xia Liu was outstanding, he was ultimately only at the Mysterious Rank Mid-Level, and it was unlikely that Bai Shixiong would take the initiative to recruit him again. The Earth-Rank Warriors who had been waiting for the boat with Xia Liu were unfazed. Lin Xiaotian had previously hidden his cultivation, only to burst out at Earth-Rank High-Level Peak. Xia Liu had clearly also concealed his cultivation, but what Rank could he burst forth with? Definitely not Mysterious Rank Mid-Level. Now, the martial combat tournament was getting more interesting. “Hehe, I can understand your helplessness. I will personally ask him after the first round has ended,” said Bai Shixiong in a polite response to Ye Yongyuan, indicating he would personally seek out Xia Liu, nearly causing everyone to bite their tongues in astonishment. At the same time, many people discerned the implications in Bai Shixiong’s words. If the first round ends, isn’t he implying that Xia Liu wouldn’t make it to the second round? Indeed, everyone would think the same. In this round, besides Xia Liu, there were five Earth-Rank Warriors and four Mysterious Rank Peak Warriors. Xia Liu, a Mysterious Rank Mid-Level, might have won before, but that counted for nothing. This round would not be so simple. If he unluckily drew an Earth-Rank Warrior as his opponent, it would be the end for him. Ye Yongyuan smiled without saying a word; he knew what Xia Liu was fighting for in the martial combat. To enter the Library Pavilion and find a Cultivation Technique! With just this goal in mind, Xia Liu would not lose. Because among the Earth-Rank Warriors participating in the combat, the highest Rank was only Earth-Rank Mid-Level Peak. Without even an Earth-Rank High-Level, how could Xia Liu possibly lose? “Next, we invite the contestants participating in the arena combat to come up and draw lots!” Just as everyone was about to comment, Mo Feng’s voice overpowered them. Whoever draws the corresponding number will be the opposing duo. Minutes later, the outcome was revealed. By fate or coincidence, Xia Liu had drawn Ye Tian! The two looked eye to eye, and a bitter smile gradually appeared on Ye Tian’s face… “The result is out, so let’s not waste any more words, and move directly into the first bout!” Looking at the list in his hand, Mo Feng said solemnly, “The first match, Ye Family: Ye Tian versus Ye Family’s Xia Liu!” “Pfft!” “Haha! It really happens that a family having two martial artists in the end would encounter this kind of situation.” “Hehe, I remember this is the first time in decades that a family has had two people reach the finals.” “Haha! Now this will be interesting to watch, an internal fight, and whoever wins will compete for the title of champion.” “I think they won’t really fight.” “Definitely not, they’re from the same family, not to mention they’re on good terms, and the gap in cultivation is there, Xia Liu is probably going to admit defeat this time.” “Yeah, that’s what I think too, Xia Liu is going to admit defeat.” On the observation platform, everyone was discussing enthusiastically, and the majority believed Xia Liu would admit defeat. Only a few people acquainted with Young Master Liao were aware of Xia Liu’s details, so they believed that if someone were to admit defeat, it would be Ye Tian. “Haha! Before it was others admitting defeat, now it’s finally his turn to do so!” “Humph! If he doesn’t admit defeat, won’t he get beaten to death by the Earth-Rank Warrior later?” … Watching Xia Liu and Ye Tian enter the arena, Luo Dao and others couldn’t help but sneer. It seemed no matter how you looked at it, it was Xia Liu who was going to admit defeat. Ye Tian had peak Earth-Rank Primary Level cultivation, and if he advanced, it would be of great benefit to the Ye Family. And Xia Liu was only a Mysterious Rank Mid-Level, unless Ye Tian had been kicked in the head by a donkey, there was no way he would admit defeat. However, the next second, something inconceivable happened on the stage. After exchanging a courteous fist salute with Xia Liu, a sincere voice came from Ye Tian’s mouth: “I admit defeat!” “Damn!” “Crap! I must be going blind!” “I must be hallucinating too!” Luo Dao and the others looked on, dumbstruck; they had been confiden Xia Liu would be the one admitting defeat. But, unexpectedly, it was Ye Tian who admitted defeat, allowing Xia Liu to advance. Not just Luo Dao and the other young martial artists felt it was inconceivable. Even the Earth-Rank Warriors watching the battle were frozen in shock. It was totally illogical for the disciple of the highest cultivation in the Ye Family to admit defeat. Especially to a Mysterious Rank Mid-Level warrior of the same clan. This was too astonishing, and the spectators all rubbed their eyes, thinking they had been mistaken just now. “Haha! This is interesting, really interesting.” Watching the bizarre scene unfold on the arena stage, Bai Shixiong couldn’t help but burst into laughter. This had to be the most inscrutable bout in decades. Even a fellow sect member proceeding, but to have an Earth-Rank Warrior yield the way to a Mysterious Rank Warrior in the final round? All eyes were on Xia Liu. They couldn’t figure out what kind of trump card Xia Liu possessed that made Ye Tian concede. This was undoubtedly arranged by Ye Yongyuan, but what made him have such faith in Xia Liu? A Mysterious Rank Mid-Level warrior, standing among a row of Earth-Rank Warriors, was indeed conspicuous. Because he was the only Mysterious Rank Warrior. “Hehe, the next matches will probably be very interesting.” “Agreed.” “It’s just unknown how Xia Liu will proceed.” … The martial artists at the scene who knew some details about Xia Liu began discussing fervently.
