Chapter 240: Lucky?
" In this round, only five candidates remain 1,3,4, 7 and 9, these five disciples will fight in the last round. " The elder announced, then he continued:
" In this round, one of the lucky disciple will be able to proceed without fighting, while the rest will fight and two out of them will go to the next round. Alright, all five of you come to the stage and choose a draw. "
Another ball containing five paper balls was brought, and Jayden along with the rest walked towards the stage.
The five of them chose a paper ball and then showed it to the elder, Jayden used his Void skill again to choose the empty ball, while the disciples who got the same number would fight against each other.
After glancing at the papers, the elder announced: "Number 1 will fight number seven and number three will fight number four. And number nine will go directly to the next round. "
Elder couldn't believe that Wang Jin could go so easily to the next round, he was afraid that the entire crowd was going to curse at him for doing something illegal to rig the fights.
" Is this for real? Hasn't number nine won the previous matches without doing anything already? I don't think he is this lucky, they are definitely doing something shady behind the scenes. " One of the men said.
" I knew it, just from a look on that elder's face and I can tell that, that elder is a fraud, look how righteously he is acting on the stage. " Another man added.
The entire crowd was angry, Jayden's condition was too good to be true, he was just progressing without doing anything.
The man in the green robe was sweating now, since if Jayden won his company would have to pay Jayden a large amount of money.
Jayden walked back to his seat and ignored everyone, he wasn't interested in the battles of the junior disciples, instead, he focussed his attention on Qiang who seemed angry, as he stared at the prince with murder in his eyes and Jayden knew just what he needed to do.
After a moment he stood up and walked towards Qiang, getting closer to him, Jayden called out: " Senior Qiang, I have something to tell you. "
Qiang was surprised to see Wang Jin talking to him, after a moment he asks: " What is it? "
" This is a bit private, so let's go somewhere else where no one can listen. It's related to senior Xiao. " Jayden said in a whisper, as he pretended to look around in caution.
Qiang's brows furrowed and without any further questions he followed behind Jayden, and after walking to a desolate area, Jayden turned around and looked all over before whispering.
" Uh... Senior, I heard something from the prince's mouth and I think you should know it. " Jayden said, making Qiang even more nervous.
" You know I like senior Xiao right, but she rejected me in the past so I don't have any chance with her but still I love her so I don't want anything to happen to her. "
The more Qiang listened the more he anticipated Jayden's next words, " Don't beat around the bush and just tell me what have you heard. " Qiang asked, he couldn't take it anymore.
" It seems you really like her, and well she seemed to like you too, then let me warn you... " Jayden again paused, then finally spoke:
" The prince is planning to do something really bad to senior Xiao and he is going to do it after some kind of battle he has planned. I heard, that after increasing his fame, he will take senior Xiao back with him, even if he have to do it forcefully. "
Qiang's eyes widened in shock and anger, and he clenched his fists as his fingers dug into his skin, as he pondered Jayden's words he found something:
' I think this Wang Jin is telling the truth after all only me and the prince are aware of the battle he is planning to fight against me to increase his fame.
In the letter he sent to me, he asked me to fight him and pretend to end it with a draw, since Wang knows even about this then did the prince really plan to do something to my Xiao.
Hmmm, considering his nature he might really be planning. ' Qiang thought, his expression turning angrier with each passing moment.
" Senior, with my strength I can't do anything but you will be able to save Senior Xiao, please help her. " Jayden said, almost pleadingly.
" Wang Jin, I'll make sure the prince can't do anything to her, actually you aren't a bad person. " Qiang said, placing a hand on Jayden's shoulder, who just smiled in return.
' I misunderstood him before for no reason, but first I need to deal with that third prince. ' he thought.
Then both of them walked back to their respective seats, the battle was still going on for the junior disciples, Chang Ho had already won and in the other fight, the girl seemed to be winning.
As Qiang sat on his seat, he glanced towards the prince, who looked back at him and nodded indicating the start of their plan.
' Keke, you will be surprised when I give you a gift in your plan. ' Qiang thought and nodded towards the prince. Soon, it was going to be Qiang's turn for his next battle.
After a few minutes, Qiang stood up and walked onto the stage, and his opponent like the rest just admitted defeat, just as he was about to walk off the stage, the prince spoke in a loud tone, grabbing everyone's attention:
" Brother Qiang, you really are very strong and I admire you greatly. If you will, please give me a chance to fight against you, I think I will be able to learn many things from you. " The prince said, everyone again started whispering.
" Prince will fight Qiang, are they even on the same level? " One man said.
" I heard the third prince is very talented, I would love to see him fight against Qiang. " Another person said.
Qiang showed a calm smile but he was burning with anger when he saw the prince stealing a glance towards Xiao Rong, holding in his anger he spoke: " Of course, I'm happy to help the prince however I can, but I won't go easy on you, so be careful. "
The prince smiled, as everything was going according to his plan, looking at Xiao and trying to impress her, he spoke:
" I wouldn't like it if you do, so come at me with everything you got, and don't worry about me being a prince, my guards will not interfere. " He added, taking another glance at Xiao.
He had heard many things about the three beauties of the Divine Sword Sect, but this was the first time he saw Xiao Rong, and he immediately wanted her for himself, he wanted Wang Jia too, but he gave up on her since his father was also interested in her.
As for the third beauty, the elder of the Divine Sword sect, she rarely appears in public and it is said that she hates all men.
