When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 209 You've dragged down the entire prestige of Yujing Martial Arts University.

Bai Ze's gaze swept past Yuan Chi and landed on Huo Heng.

"I thought I could become friends with the Taoist Society, what a pity," Bai Ze said with considerable regret.

Previously in Canghai City, Bai Ze had established connections with the Sanqing Group, and later, the former principal personally introduced Shi Qingfeng to him.

The Taoist Society should be considered an ally, or at least biased towards Bai Ze.

However, judging from the current situation, Huo Heng, the president of the Taoist Society, has other ideas.

Following Yuan Chi and Huo Heng, a group of members of the Taoist Society came out, but no members of the Buddhist Society were seen.

Furthermore, Bai Ze did not see Xi Yuheng or Shi Qingfeng.

Furthermore, the number of people in the Taoist Society was not large, only about forty.

"Unfortunately, I am not a member of Xi Yuheng's faction."

Huo Heng stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, displaying a flamboyant air quite different from before.

Previously, during the meeting on the twelfth floor, Huo Heng appeared lazy and unwilling to speak. Now, however, he is full of vigor and has shed his pretense, revealing his hidden brilliance.

"It's more accurate to say that my family and Xi Yuheng's family are on opposite sides of the same interest."

Huo Heng said, "Moreover, if Yun Shu can seize the position of the Lord of Baiyujing, and you can seize it, why can't I, Huo Heng, seize it?"

"It's time for the voice of the Taoist Society to be heard at Yujing Martial Arts University as well."

These words stirred the excitement of the Taoist Society members behind Huo Heng, who clearly shared the same sentiment.

Rather than helping any other faction seize the throne of Baiyujing, it's better for your own faction to have the last laugh.

Rather than playing a supporting role to highlight the main character, it's better to be the main character yourself.

Moreover, for Huo Heng, being able to seize the position of the master of Baiyujing might also allow him to suppress other factions within the gang and become a true leader.

"The Renxia Society has been defeated, Shi Qingfeng has been eliminated, and although Xi Yuheng and Jing Jie of the Renxia Society have escaped, they are no longer able to leave Dongcheng."

Huo Heng stared at Bai Ze and slowly explained the situation, trying to put pressure on Bai Ze.

"In the West City, the Muscle Society and the Armory Society are also struggling to survive, and the Spirit Sound Society remains neutral, and they are powerless to influence the war situation," Yuan Chi continued.

The West Campus is the largest campus of Yujing Wuhan University, and there are even several mountains within its area.

The Buddhist Studies Club and the Muscle Club can use the mountains and waterfalls for physical training, while the Literature Club and the Spiritual Sound Club also appreciate the environment there. As for the Armory Club, the mountains are the best testing ground for weapons.

Of the twelve floors, five are located on the west campus.

More than half of Bai Ze's assistance came from the West Campus.

Now that Yuan Chi from the Buddhist Society has arrived, the situation in Xicheng is clearly not going to be good.

At the same time, the poisonous fog slowly dispersed, and Xu Xiao and Qiao Yuexuan walked in from outside the main hall.

Qiao Yuexuan said, "Yun Shu has already gone to the North City. The Astronomy Club can't stop the Martial Arts Club."

In other words, Bai Ze has no one left to rely on.

Unless he's willing to use that bunch of weaklings from the Alchemy Society.

In Dongcheng, Huo Heng, in alliance with the Martial Arts Club, launched a sudden attack, defeating the opposing faction within the Taoist Society and the Chivalrous Society.

Although Jing Jie, a five-star martial artist, was not eliminated, the seal of Dongcheng had been taken away, and he couldn't get out at all.

In the North City, Yun Shu should have already dealt with the guardians and obtained the North City seal.

The Astronomy Society and the News Agency, both located in the North City, are equally inseparable from the North City.

As for Xicheng, the Buddhist Society and the Literary Society are still there, while the Muscle Society and the Armory Society are equally difficult to occupy. "Bai Ze, you're doomed to lose."

Qiao Yuexuan asserted decisively.

As he spoke, a surge of energy pressed in from all directions, and at the same time, the four-star martial artist began frantically drawing upon the surrounding vital energy, attempting to suppress Bai Ze's absorption of it.

"Losing? Save your boasts for after you beat me."

Bai Ze remained unmoved, standing within the illusory image of the Dharma, letting the energy pull him along. "Yuan Chi leaving the West City alone means that the Buddhist Society can only let him leave now. Even the guards of the West City may not have logged off yet; it was Huo Heng who brought Yuan Chi out using the seal of the East City."

If the guardians of West City have already been defeated, then Yuan Chi can lead his people away from West City and imprison the other gangs within it.

Just like the members of the Renxia Society and some of the Daoxue Society were imprisoned in the East City.

The only reason Yuan Chi didn't do that was because the guardians of the West City hadn't been defeated.

The truth is that after Yun Shu entered the North City, he had someone take the seal of the East City away and let Huo Heng take the seal to the West City, taking the opportunity to bring Yuan Chi out.

This wasn't because they couldn't defeat the guardians of the West City, but because they needed to race against time.

Just as they didn't completely wipe out Jing Jie and the others, they needed to deal with the situation as quickly as possible and then rush over to besiege Bai Ze.

If it's too late, and Bai Ze enters the West or East City, then the blockade will be meaningless.

During this time, Yun Shu personally took action, leading the martial arts club to first eliminate Bai Ze's subordinates.

"And Huo Heng—"

After revealing the situation in Xicheng, Bai Ze's gaze shifted to Huo Heng's face, and he said with a half-smile, "A victory bestowed upon you by Yun Shu, and you still have the nerve to say you're speaking out for the Daoist Society?"

Huo Heng's triumphant expression immediately darkened.

"What do you mean?" Huo Heng stared at Bai Ze and asked.

"What do you mean?" Bai Ze revealed a sneer and said, "It means I know you made a deal with Yun Shu. He handed over the victory to someone else, and you fought for him. Apart from this, you have no chance of having the last laugh. And only this condition can convince you."

"At the Wanyi Gathering, in the last moments before the Yujing Martial Arts Tournament closed, a large amount of funds entered the market and placed bets on you."

"Besides you making a deal with Yun Shu, are there any other possibilities?"

Each word struck Huo Heng like a heavy hammer, causing him to tremble violently.

The last sentence, in particular, reveals the truth behind the previous changes in the betting odds.

He tried to win people's hearts, but ended up being swayed by Bai Ze instead.

Regardless of the level of combat, a martial artist's mindset is extremely important.

If a low-level martial artist loses his composure, he may make an unwarranted mistake.

If a high-level martial artist's mindset is not stable, their internal energy will also be affected.

As one's spiritual level rises, the connection between Qi and Shen (spirit) becomes increasingly close.

A slight slowdown in concentration can mean a slight slowdown in the circulation of vital energy. This slight difference could be the difference that determines victory or defeat.

Not to mention that martial artists of six stars or above sometimes even engage in mental combat.

Unfortunately, Huo Heng's attempt to exert pressure backfired, and he was instead pressured in return by Bai Ze.

"You and your clumsy pursuit make me laugh."

Bai Ze said indifferently, "Does the martial arts competition in Yujing rely on charity? Are you a beggar? You've lowered the overall standard of the Yujing Martial Arts Academy."
