Chapter 447
Not Allowed to Win
When Li Chang Zai was carried away, a few spectators and participants continued to stare at him, the atmosphere around the competition had unknowingly risen.
Why did he persevere? No one knew, but from the looks of it, he had become the brightest star in the competition.
The stage was completely broken, even the formation array beneath the stage was broken, so it was unable to restore the stage. Furthermore, the protective barrier meant to protect the citizens was destroyed by Su Yun’s attack, so continuing the competition was no longer possible, as they required a proper stage.
The organiser immediately summoned a few almighty beings to utilize their mystical techniques to restore the stage. During this period, the competition stopped for a break.
Li Chang Zai was eliminated, leaving only one competitor in Group A. Group D also had one competitor, while two representatives for the organisations remained: Huo Quan Cai and Qin Si.
At this point, the competition was close to its end, but the remaining four participants were the most striking existence of the whole competition, two more rounds and the competition would end!
Su Yun returned to his participant seat and closed his eyes and recuperated quietly. By his side, Lu Zhan Yuan blabbered nonstop, he was completely convinced by Su Yun’s swordsmanship, to the point of kneeling down to Su Yun, begging him to take him in as a disciple. More participants had gone over to Su Yun for guidance and were all in discussion.
A Group D participant had knocked out more than two Group A participants, rushing to the top four… What kind of achievement was that? Was he truly a Group D Participant? How was he placed there in the first place?
Countless of people had the same question in mind, even more were suspecting that there was some problem differentiating the participants. For such an outstanding person to be placed into Group D, it was too exaggerated.
“Hello, are you Young Noble Su?”
Just then, a voice sounded out from the walkway. Su Yun opened his eyes and turned to look towards the voice and saw a man dressed in black and red robes with his fists cupped and a smile on his face. On his chest was an emblem of the New Deer Auction House.
“Who are you?” Su Yun asked.
“Oh, this lowly servant is from the New Deer Auction House. Young Noble Su is an unmatched hero, able to defeat other heroes with one sword, my family’s Old Master admires Young Noble Su greatly, if Young Noble Su doesn’t mind, could you come to the pavilion after the competition to meet with my Old Master?” The man spoke with respect towards Su Yun.
“Your Old Master?”
“My Old Master is also the President of New Deer Auction House!” The man’s voice was filled with pride when he announced who his Old Master was.
“President?”
Before Su Yun could even speak, Lu Zhan Yuan patted on Su Yun’s shoulder anxiously and said: “Brother Su, it is a blessing, a blessing indeed, the President of New Deer Auction House has taken a liking to your talent and strength, and plans to recruit you to be groomed! This is an absolutely good blessing, with an organization grooming you with their resources, all the treasures and cultivation coins that you desire are within reach and your cultivation will grow even faster! Brother Su, you are extremely fortunate today!”
Lu Zhan Yuan was extremely excited, as though he was the one being recruited. But he was right, to be able to catch the eye of a huge organization was considered a blessing for a wandering cultivator. As long as he agreed, it would mean that he had sold himself to the organization. Since he would be groomed by them, he had to obey to their orders and do what they wanted him to do.
The main goal of joining the New Deer City competition was to raise his fighting strength and head over to the Emperor Palace, if Su Yun were to be stuck in New Deer City, it would be difficult for him to leave. Furthermore, the New Deer Auction House was competing with the other three organizations in the shadows, it was best for him not to get involved to prevent even more troubles. If he were to offend the other three organizations, it would not bode well for him.
Su Yun scratched his chin and thought for a moment, then spoke: “The competition has not ended, whether or not I’ll be safe and sound is unknown. Why don’t we do this, you go back first and help me thank your President, tell him that we should take this thing slowly and wait for the end of the competition before talking about it, what about that?”
“Hehe, Young Noble Su is right. Alright, this lowly servant will return first.” Without speaking further, he bowed and left.
Seeing that, Lu Zhan Yuan looked at Su Yun as though he was looking at a monster. It was a good thing, but he did not accept immediately, if it were Lu Zhan Yuan, he would have immediately left to meet the President.
Just then, two bursts of dense Spirit Qi suddenly pervaded from outside the competition grounds. All of the Spirit Cultivators on site could feel the powerful and horrifying Spirit Qi.
A few anxiously turned to the direction of where the Spirit Qi came from, only to see two figures flying over at a quick speed. Both of them were dressed in colorful robes and were extremely striking. One man and one woman of about forty years old, one wielding a sword while the other wield a cane, the two of them were very powerful.
On their chests were identical logos; New Deer Auction House logos.
“An almighty being! They look like the almighty beings from the New Deer Auction House!”
“They must be Master Yue Xiao and Madam Yu Ta Shan.”
“Why are they here? And can they just fly in like that? Don’t they know that New Deer City prohibits flight?”
Everyone started discussing amongst themselves.
The two of them flew straight into the competition grounds and directly landed in the middle of the stage. The man, Yue Xiao extended his hand and retrieved a snow white slab, and used his Spirit Qi to activate it.
The snow white slab cracked from the center, like a blossoming flower and the pieces flew in all directions while releasing thin grey lines that flew into mid air and split apart, forming a large web that covered downwards.
After the strange ‘spiderweb’ connected to the ground, its appearance started to change, secreting a large amount of liquid. After the spiderweb completely transformed, the liquid automatically congealed, ultimately forming a gigantic and unique snow white square stage.
When the two of them finished, they cupped their fists towards New Deer Auction House’s pavilion. Without saying anything, they turned and walked towards the big gates.
One of New Deer City’s personnel walked over to Zhu Wen and whispered a few words into his ears, causing Zhu Wen to reveal a look of understanding as he nodded his head, he then ran over to the gigantic snow white stage.
He climbed onto the stage and used Spirit Qi to enhance his voice: “Dear esteemed guests and spectators! Please do not find this strange! Just now, the two masters that came were invited by Our New Deer Auction House! Since the stage and energy barrier is broken and we are unable to restore them in a short frame of time, they were invited to construct a new stage for us! That’s right! What you see here is a gigantic stage, which was sponsored by the New Deer Auction House and is called ‘Snow Jade Space’. The following battles will be conducted in there!!!”
Snow Jade Space? The spectators were startled! After a moment, soft discussions could be heard from all around.
“The Snow Jade Space is the most recent mystical treasure obtained by the New Deer Auction House, it is originally used for Spirit Intermediate Cultivators to train, but today, it is extremely useful for this competition! When the participant enters the Snow Jade Space, their profound Spirit Qi will recover twice as fast, but inside the Snow Jade Space, the weather is extremely vile, with terrifying traps and monsters that would exhaust the spirit cultivator’s Spirit Qi! Participants not only have to deal with their enemies, but also the test that comes from the Snow Jade Space!!” Zhu Wen shouted with exaggerated movements: “Now, is everyone ready?”
“Go! Go!! Go!!!!”
The spectators were shouting out excitedly, waves after waves of shouts announcing their anticipation towards the Snow Jade Space. Seeing that, Zhu Wen did not delay any further, and directly pointed his chubby finger to the screen in the air, instantly, the screen started to move.
Two names appeared on the upper part of the screen. Everyone anxiously looked up.
Huo Quan Cai versus Qin Si.
An official representative against another official representative!
The crowd exploded into an uproar as everyone got heated up.
Su Yun looked at the screen and could not help but look towards Han Yue Xin who was at the Group A region. Since it was Huo Quan Cai against Qin Si, then without question, the next match would be Su Yun against Han Yue Xin.
“Brother Su, do your best! Although Miss Han Yue Xin is very powerful, I believe that you will definitely win.” Lu Zhan Yuan spoke softly.
“Really?” Su Yun turned and look at him.
“Of course.” Lu Zhan Yuan puffed his chest out and spoke with a serious look on his face.
“Alright, then you can go and bet 500 thousand cultivation coins on me winning.”
“Erm, about that…” Lu Zhan Yuan’s face immediately turned red.
In the previous few rounds, when he saw Su Yun betting on himself and earning buckets after buckets of cultivation coins, he also followed along to bet on Su Yun, but he played it small and had amassed quite a few thousands of cultivation coins.
But in the next match, he did not have the confidence he had before, that was because Su Yun’s opponent was the number one Cold Sword Han Yue Xin! In terms of strength, she did not lose out to the official representatives!
Seeing Lu Zhan Yuan hesitate, Su Yun shook his head, he took out his cultivation coins card again and handed it over to Xiao Xiu: “Please bet it on me winning.”
“Yes, Young Noble.” Xiao Xiu laughed and curtsied.
Seeing that, Lu Zhan Yuan’s face was a mix of white and red, perspiration started trickling down his forehead as though he was struggling with a mental battle within himself. After a long while, he finally took out a hundred thousand cultivation coins card with trembling hands and stammered: “T-then help this young master b-bet a hundred thousand.”
Xiao Xiu nodded her head and accepted the cultivation coin card.
Lu Zhan Yuan looked as though he was unwilling, as he stared at the cultivation coin card in Xiao Xiu’s hands for a long time before retracting this gaze. Seeing that, Su Yun did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Clang!
Just then, the competition round began.
Qin Si and Huo Quan Cai had entered the Snow Jade Space at the same time. Upon seeing each other, they did not say a word, but instantly started fighting! Many different lights formed by mystical techniques constantly exploded within the Snow Jade Space, revealing the intensity of the fight.
Su Yun stared at the Snow Jade Space, wanting to see the uniqueness of the mysterious Snow Jade Space… Just then, someone patted on his shoulders a few times.
Su Yun turned to see that there was a man standing behind him without him knowing, dressed in flowery robes, looking like a rich man. He had a protruding mouth like a monkey and was skinny and tall. He had a birthmark at the corner of his mouth with extremely small eyes. He was smiling towards Su Yun, but did not display any courtesy or sign of respect.
~Who is this? Is he someone else from another organization? The New Deer Auction House already sent a person after all…~
Su Yun thought for a moment, then asked: “Who are you?”
“Me?” The man had his hands folded across his chest as he smiled: “Who I am ain’t important, what is important are the words that my family’s Young Master had me bring over to you, Su Yun.”
Su Yun frowned: “What did he say?”
The man was smiling with his eyes, but he whispered softly in Su Yun’s ears: “You are not allowed to win against Miss Han Yue Xin!”
