Chapter 384: They Won, They Really Won!
Wan Chuan Country’s envoy was about to howl when Ling Chuxi made a sudden decision, kicking Duan Qingchou. The tyrannical Battle Qi of the Great Fulfilment Intermediate stage flowed into Duan Qingchou’s meridians like a flood. Medical skills could not only save people, they could also kill them. With Ling Chuxi’s keen understanding of a person’s meridians, crippling someone was just too easy.
“Ah!” Duan Qingchou wailed pitifully as his body spasmed and his features twisted in agony. All his meridians were being overstimulated until finally, they were all obliterated. He could not possibly cultivate again in this lifetime.
“Admit defeat! We admit defeat!” Wan Chuan Country’s envoy bellowed hysterically.
“This match is over. Nan Xia Country wins!” The judge flew to the stage, moving faster than he ever had before to announce the competition results.
“You! Why are you only announcing that the match has ended now?!” It only took the envoy one look to know that Duan Qingchou was thoroughly crippled, and he shouted angrily at the judge.
“Didn’t I announce that the match had ended the moment you admitted defeat?” The judge asked innocently, pretending to be confused.
“I clearly admitted defeat just now! Why didn’t you announce the end of the match?” The envoy was so angry that his whole body was trembling.
“Oh? Did you? It was too noisy earlier on, so I couldn’t hear you. You should have been a little louder,” the judge chided disapprovingly.
“You... You...” The envoy was so angry that he could not even speak properly, his face turning red. What did he mean by it was too noisy and he didn’t hear? Just now everyone had been so shocked by the terrible defeat of Duan Qingchou that the entire arena had gone quiet. How could he not have heard it? It was obviously nonsense! The envoy was furious as he realized the judge had done it on purpose. He was taking revenge for Duan Qingchou’s earlier disrespect!
“Are you guys competing in the following match or not?” The judge barked impatiently, clearly disregarding the envoy. The envoy was only from a Tier 2 vassal country and thus, he could only act proud in front of the other vassal countries. What right did the envoy have to be arrogant in his Ding Lin Country? That malicious and vile Duan Qingchou had been cruel to Baili Han and disrespectful to him. Hmph! Duan Qingchou had completely ignored him when he announced that the match had ended earlier, so let him personally experience the outcome of breaking the rules!
“Not competing. We admit defeat!” The envoy gritted his teeth and snarled after a long silence. Duan Qingchou was already crippled and the remaining two people were only at the cultivation level of Battle Qi Level-9. Who else could they use to compete against Nan Xia Country? It would be better to preserve their cultivation and hope that Dong Xing Country or Feng Ze Country would have a crushing defeat or heavy injury. If their luck was good, perhaps they might get fourth place, which was better than last place.
“Wan Chuan Country admits defeat. Nan Xia Country wins this round of the competition!” The judge’s voice rang out in the martial arena.
Nan Xia Country won!
They really won!
On the watching platform, all the spectators from Nan Xia Country stood up and cheered uproariously. Their faces were stained with tears of joy. As for the spectators from the other countries, they were regarding Ling Chuxi with mixed emotions. There was admiration, wariness, and most definitely fear...
The envoy and Li Shaoqiu hugged each other, overjoyed to the point of tears. Nan Xia Country had actually won against the runner-up of the last assessment competition, who had also been the expected champion of this year’s competition! Finally, they had dropped the title of ‘number one in ten thousand years’. Looking at Ling Chuxi’s calm expression, they all had a feeling that this was definitely not the end. It was just as Ling Chuxi had said: being the champion was her goal.
Ling Chuxi looked at Baili Han from atop the fighting ring. The two exchanged a glance and smiled. Baili Han finally collapsed to the ground, but there was a faint contented smile on his lips.
