I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

Admit defeat?!

Miyamoto Yusuke was dumbfounded, and so were the people in the audience.

Even Qiao Song almost lost his balance and fell off the chair. Who taught her to do that?

However, this seems quite wise. Knowing that you can't win, it's better to admit defeat than to fight head-on and end up being killed or maimed by your opponent.

"Where there's life, there's hope" is a bit too shameless.

This is such a shameless act...

Qiao Song subconsciously looked at Qin Ge.

He was right; it was Qin Ge's idea!

Before Shen Yulan went on stage, Qin Ge had Yu Jinghong repeatedly remind Shen Yulan that as soon as Miyamoto Yuzheng went on stage, she should immediately admit defeat and not hesitate for a second!

So what if you're shameless? Being beaten until you drool and can't take care of yourself, does that make you feel good?

Although he breathed a sigh of relief, Qiao Song still felt a mix of emotions. He had raised his apprentice for more than ten years, nurturing him to be upright, but he had been led astray in less than a day.

In fact, Qiao Song had already noticed something was wrong when Shen Yulan came forward to testify against Wu Nanzhi. He knew that it was Qin Ge and Yang Xin'er's doing.

The problem is this: Qin Ge has evidence, so why didn't he bring it up earlier? Instead, he chose to fight him. Was it just to beat him up?

Is Qin Ge really that confident that he can win?

This young man's thoughts are too hard to fathom.

"Miss Shen, you must be joking with me, right?"

Miyamoto Yuzheng was so angry that his breathing became rapid. He had already planned to break Shen Yulan's arms and legs in front of Qiao Song and cut her dozens of times.

Finally, cripple her cultivation, making her suffer a fate worse than death, so as to avenge the three Dongyang prodigies who went into battle earlier!

As a result, Shen Yulan's surrender ruined all his plans, which he couldn't accept!

"Who has time to joke with you? I can't fight anymore, I admit defeat."

Shen Yulan sheathed her sword, turned around, and gracefully jumped off the arena under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Miyamoto Yusuke instantly exploded, "We've lost three men, and you think you can just stop fighting like that?"

He followed Shen Yulan as she leaped off the stage, slashing at the back of her head with a fierce and astonishing strike.

"Zheng—"

Miyamoto Yusuke's sword was deflected by a sword strike, and he and his sword were sent flying back onto the arena.

After landing, he staggered back several steps before regaining his balance. His arm was numb from the impact, and he almost lost his grip on the knife.

"She'd already admitted defeat, and you still attacked her, especially from behind? Have you no shame?!"

Yu Jinghong also came to the arena and stood facing Miyamoto Yusaka, his face full of anger.

Shen Yulan belatedly realized what had happened. She turned around and saw the two people on the stage, and then looked at the reactions of the people below the stage. She roughly guessed what had just happened.

"Thank you, Jinghong."

She gave Yu Jinghong a grateful look, then sat down in the seat next to Qin Ge. "Is Jinghong really capable?"

"Don't worry, it's a piece of cake!" Qin Ge wasn't quite sure who was stronger between Yu Jinghong and Miyamoto Yuzheng, but after Yu Jinghong's rescue, the difference in their abilities was immediately apparent.

He's not worried about Yu Jinghong being unable to defeat him; on the contrary, he's worried that Miyamoto Yuzheng will follow suit and also admit defeat outright.

"You dare to launch a sneak attack like this? Do you think I'm dead?"

Qiao Song had already stood up, his sharp eyes fixed on Miyamoto Yusei on the ring, suppressing the urge to attack him.

If Yu Jinghong hadn't acted first, Miyamoto Yusei would be dead by now!

Qin Ge had also anticipated that Qiao Song would make a move and kill Miyamoto Yuzheng directly, which would save a lot of trouble.

But he still let Yu Jinghong take action. Who knew if that old man Qiao Song might have some dementia? If he was even a beat slow to react, Shen Yulan might die.

"Master Qiao, let me handle this!" Yu Jinghong tightened his grip on his sword, the tip pointing at Miyamoto Yusei. "I'll fight you. Sign the papers!"

"Who are you?" Miyamoto Yuzheng was still shaken by the sword strike. He knew he was no match for the woman in front of him and hesitated whether to follow Shen Yulan's example and admit defeat directly.

"Yu Jinghong." Yu Jinghong's tone was cold and contemptuous. "I killed Wu Nanzhi."

Knowing that Miyamoto Yu was Hashimoto Aoi's senior, she deliberately paused for a long time before saying, "I killed Hashimoto Aoi too!"

"What did you say?" Miyamoto Isamu's eyes widened in fury. "So it was you!"

"Okay, I'll fight you!"

Below the arena, Chao Wu's desire to kill was impossible to conceal.

His decision to come to Yingwu Hall with the Dongyang people today was a huge mistake; he's just a clown!

This debt should naturally be attributed to Qiao Song.

Yu Jinghong and the other person immediately started fighting after signing the agreement, and the arena was instantly filled with the glint of swords and the clash of blades.

One of them wanted to kill the other to avenge his junior sister, while the other simply wanted to kill.

Their goals were similar—to kill each other—so their first exchange was a fierce and deadly attack.

Shen Yulan stared intently at the figures on the stage, her heart filled with envy.

Is this the strength of a peak Earth Realm cultivator? I'm far too weak compared to them!

Once upon a time, Yu Jinghong's strength was almost the same as hers, so how could there be such a big gap between them?

She had wanted to ask Yu Jinghong about this during her time at the Shadow Martial Arts Hall, but seeing Yu Jinghong's state, she was too embarrassed to ask.

Qiao Song was also watching Yu Jinghong. He had roughly guessed that Yu Jinghong's rapid progress in martial arts was likely related to Qin Ge, but he didn't know exactly how she did it.

What an unbelievable young man!

"You're oversimplifying things. It seems Wu Nanxiong has no intention of making a move!"

Yang Xin'er turned her gaze away from the ring. "Miyamoto Yusei is indeed an impulsive brute, but Wu Nanxiong is a seasoned veteran, very composed!"

"Let him hold on, kill one at a time!" Qin Ge had been waiting for Wu Nanxiong to make a move so that he could follow suit.

"Zheng—"

With a crisp sound, the sword in Miyamoto Isamu's hand broke in two.

At the same time, Yu Jinghong's sword tip pierced his throat.

Another loss, four games down!

The people of Dongyang confidently launched a challenge, but the Shadow Martial Hall sent two young women to fight and defeated them in this way.

Did you travel all the way from Dongyang to Huaxia just to embarrass yourself?

Yu Jinghong could have won much earlier; she was deliberately teasing Miyamoto Yuzheng at Qin Ge's behest to provoke Wu Nanxiong into making a move.

Seeing that Miyamoto Yusei had several close calls while Takeo remained as steady as a rock, she lost her patience.

"Have you ever wondered why the people of Dongyang would suddenly want to challenge the Shadow Martial Hall?"

"Is it really just about venting anger and showing off?"

Yang Xin'er had been thinking about this issue from the moment Miyamoto Yusei issued the challenge.

Leaving aside the possibility of losing, even if the people of Dongyang were confident enough to win completely, what good would that do them?

Showing off your power and then attracting hatred is not a good thing, is it?
