Chapter 4036: The Fight for Tenth Place

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyoneknew that the top ten rankings would eventually be occupied by the outstanding partic.i.p.ants. There would be no change unless there were partic.i.p.ants who had hidden their strength up until now.

The fight between the 28th and 23rd partic.i.p.ants ended in a tie.

Following that, the 27th partic.i.p.ant stepped forward and challenged the 23rd partic.i.p.ant, but the 23rd partic.i.p.ant rightly refused the challenge. As such, the 27th partic.i.p.ant challenged the 24th partic.i.p.ant. In the end, he won the challenge and moved up to the 24th place. Similar to the 28th partic.i.p.ant, he did not bother challenging Yuan Mo Yu and Wanqi Hong who were likely to rank in the top ten in the end. He would only put himself in a disadvantageous position if he challenged the duo. If he was injured, he would not be able to fight anymore.

The fights continued.

When it was the 23rd partic.i.p.ant’s turn, he surrendered immediately since he could only challenge Yuan Mo Yu or Wanqi Hong.

!!

After that, Lin Dong Lai said loudly, “It’s the 20th partic.i.p.ant’s turn.”

The 20th partic.i.p.ant was a young disciple from the Consonance Mansion. He challenged the 13th partic.i.p.ant but was defeated. With this, he was the first challenger to be defeated.

Following that, the 19th partic.i.p.ant stepped forward. He was none other than Hu Chai Yi from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice who defeated Ye Ying Cai previously due to a conflict with the Pure Yang Sect.

Upon seeing Hu Chai Yi, Duan Ling Tian instinctively glanced at Ye Ying Cai, whose expression was dark at this moment. He thought to himself, ‘It seems like Ye Ying Cai has a hard time accepting that Hu Chai Yi defeated him…’

Hu Chai Yi said, “I want to challenge the 12th partic.i.p.ant.”

The two opponents fought for a while before the fight ended in a tie.

The fights were not very exciting at this point. The initial excitement from Yuan Mo Yu and Wanqi Hong’s fights had already dissipated by now.

“Those who obtained smaller numbers are all quite powerful. Yuan Mo Yu and Wanqi Hong are the only two who obtained unfavorable tokens since they were too focused on obtaining the first token.”

“You’re right. That aside, I don’t think there’ll be any excitement during the fights of those in the 12th to the 20th places.”

“Be patient. The fights will become more exciting as the numbers go into the top ten…”

As the young disciples discussed among themselves, the 18th partic.i.p.ant entered the battlefield. He took the risk and challenged partic.i.p.ant 13th. Alas, he was defeated by the 13th partic.i.p.ant.

However, the 13th partic.i.p.ant was quite injured due to two fights.

“The 13th partic.i.p.ant might not be able to defend his rank after this…”

“That’s right. He can refuse the next challenge, but he can’t refuse the one after that.”

The crowd felt rather sorry for the 13th partic.i.p.ants. He was stronger than his two challengers, but he was not that strong that he could easily defeat them. As such, he suffered from injuries as well despite his victory. Soon enough, the crowd’s attention s.h.i.+fted again.

“The 17th partic.i.p.ant might challenge the 12th partic.i.p.ant. Although his fight with Hu Chai Yi ended in a tie, he was injured.”

As expected, the 17th partic.i.p.ant, who was from the Divine Morning Mansion, challenged the 12th partic.i.p.ant and won easily due to his opponent surrendering without a fight.

“The 12th partic.i.p.ant is smart enough to surrender quickly due to his injuries. With this, he has more time to recover.”

“That’s right. Even if he lost this match, he has time to recover and prepare for his next match.”

“If he’s strong enough, he can still climb up the ranks.”

At the same time, many partic.i.p.ants also contemplated using the same strategy if they were in the same situation.

The fights continued.

During the fight between the 16th and the 11th partic.i.p.ants, the 16th partic.i.p.ant lost his challenge, becoming the second challenger to lose. He was defeated with just three moves.

‘He’s been holding back previously…’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the 11th partic.i.p.ant.

The 11th partic.i.p.ant was a middle-aged man who was dressed rather sloppily. Despite his unkempt appearance, his performance had been outstanding so far. No one expected him to have held back previously. He was none other than w.a.n.g Xiong from the Feudal Lord Mansion’s Frozen Mountain Manor. Previously, he had defeated Ye Ying Cai when he was one of the seeded partic.i.p.ants.

“That prodigy from the Frozen Mountain Manor was hiding his true strength?!”

“It’s not just that. I suspect that he’s still holding back now.”

“I wonder if w.a.n.g Xiong can defeat the tenth partic.i.p.ant? If he fails, he’ll have to wait until someone new takes the tenth place…”

“The tenth partic.i.p.ant is a famous prodigy from the Consonance Mansion. If he can defeat w.a.n.g Xiong, then he’ll have no problem defeating Yang Qian Ye from the Pure Yang Sect.”

“That’s right. Among the first ten partic.i.p.ants, Yang Qian Ye seems to be the weakest. It must be due to luck that he obtained the ninth token.”

“Even if w.a.n.g Xiong fails to defeat the tenth partic.i.p.ant now, he can challenge Yang Qian Ye when Yang Qie drops to tenth place. Not only that, he’ll be able to defeat Yang Qian Ye as well and rise to the tenth place.”

When the young disciples from the Pure Yang Sect heard the hushed conversations in the surroundings, they instinctively looked at the aloof young man standing next to Duan Ling Tian. He looked completely unaffected by the conversations.

After the 15th, 14th, 13th, and 12th partic.i.p.ants ended the fight, Lin Dong Lai looked at w.a.n.g Xiong and asked, “Partic.i.p.ant number 11, do you want to challenge the tenth partic.i.p.ant or do you want to surrender?”

According to the rules of the Seven Mansions Feast, w.a.n.g Xiong could only challenge the tenth partic.i.p.ant now.

“I want to challenge the tenth partic.i.p.ant,” w.a.n.g Xiong said with a lazy grin. He took a few sips from his wine gourd before he continued to say, “I’ve heard about He Yu Xi from the Consonance Mansion’s Frost Divine Sect for a while now. I’d like to see his strength.”

The Frost Divine Sect’s He Yu Xi, the tenth partic.i.p.ant, was the strongest among the younger generation in the Consonance Mansion before he was replaced by the United Heavens Sect’s Han Di. There were rumors that He Yu Xi surrendered after exchanging only a few moves. No one knew what happened, but it was indisputable that He Yu Xi lost to Han Di. From that day onward, Han Di replaced He Yu Xi as the strongest among the younger generation in the Consonance Mansion.

As soon as w.a.n.g Xiong’s voice fell, a figure flew out. It was a young man with an average appearance who was dressed in a long green robe. His gaze was sharp, and his voice was cold as he said, “I’d also like to see the strength of the Frozen Mountain Manor’s secret prodigy. If you defeat me, you can challenge the other partic.i.p.ant from your force and be known as the strongest young disciple in your force.”

“That t.i.tle doesn’t mean anything to me. I’m only here to complete the task that my elder has entrusted me with, which is to rank in the top ten,” w.a.n.g Xiong said with a faint smile. After he put away his wine gourd, his entire person seemed to change immediately. His expression was no longer lackadaisical, but it was solemn. Clearly, he did not make the mistake of underestimating his opponent who was once the strongest among the younger generation in the Consonance Mansion.

‘He Yu Xi isn’t simple…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. Although w.a.n.g Xiong had yet to use his full strength, He Yu Xi was not to be underestimated as well. It was all luck that he managed to s.n.a.t.c.h the tenth token from seven or eight partic.i.p.ants.
