Ye Zan stood at the center of the arena, but, before he could challenge anyone, Li Fugui’s voice rang out from beneath the stage .

“My Friend Ye, let’s not meddle with the young folk . This round will just be counted as one of Yu Qing’s victories . ” Qing Yue Sword Sect had no relation with Qing Yue Sect, thus, it was not courteous to call Ye Zan Uncle . However, “My Friend” was an allowable title . After all, as Ye Zan’s Senior Mo Rushi was the prominent Grandmaster Yuan Yin, Li Fugui obviously could not use honorific titles with him .

Li Fugui’s speech came as a surprise to all . No one had anticipated that he would just admit to defeat without a fight . Even Ye Zan himself was taken aback; having to make sure he has heard Li Fugui correctly .

Li Fugui was actually pretty crooked . He didn’t wait for Ye Zan to pick an opponent, but rather, used his generational level as an excuse to just admit defeat . As a result, he could pick who to forfeit . In this way, he could save his most elite students from being forfeited like those from the Jin Guang Sect or the Wu Zhu Sect; eliminating any effects that their loss might have had on their exploration of the Closed Realm .

“Knowing that the path ahead is impossible yet choosing to walk it anyway,” that is not courage; that is stupidity . Although those that learned the way of the sword must have some dignity, as the sword is connected to the heart, that didn’t mean that everyone had to be an idiot . Yu Qing’s students had already displayed astonishing skill . Ye Zan, having marked himself outside of the list, must have had enough confidence to take on any opponent on his own .

“Cancel the competition? Then your eligibility… . . ” Although Ye Zan was more than happy to save his energy, he couldn’t throw away the benefits from a competition .

Hearing Ye Zan’s question, Li Fugui knew that his opponent had agreed to his offer . Thus, he smiled and said: ”As it is, it is obviously a win for Yu Qing . This place of ours is obviously thus your Sect’s to have . ”

It was just a place of eligibility in the Closed Realm . As calculated, there was not much loss at all; especially considering that they could now prevent the forfeiting of one of their most elite students .  

“Okay then . It is decided . ” Of course, Ye Zan knew what Li Fugui was trying to do . It was just that, Yu Qing Sect and Qing Yue Sword Sect had nothing against each other . There was really no reason to go and offend everyone .

At last, this competition, driven by the Four Sects to oppose the Yu Qing Sect, ended in Yu Qing’s uncontested victory . Because of this, Yu Qing Sect had also gained four extra places of eligibility; which was actually unexpected for this competition . Even if the four places were to be taken by the four Secular Warriors, more Yu Qing students in the Closed Realm was still a good thing .

 

As for the other Four Sects, they each lost a place of eligibility . Jin Guang Sect and Wu Zhu Sect were especially affected, as they had lost their most elite students . This was worse than losing a place in the Closed Realm . Although Fa Guang Sect had also lost one of their most talented students, they had always been more focused on teamwork . Individual skill was always secondary, so there was not as much of a loss .

When all had ended, the Five Sects all returned to their individual bases, to await the opening of the Closed Realm .

At the Jin Guang base, Luo and Wang had once again gathered . The performance of the Yu Qing students that day had truly shocked them . Not even counting their losses, just the shame brought to them today made them helplessly furious .

They had planned to let Yu Qing Sect lose six places . After all, what could six people do in the Closed Realm? But who could expect that Yu Qing Sect would pull a trick like this? Not only did they keep their places, but they also stole one from each of the other Sects . This was really embarrassing .

 

“Who could have known? How did Yu Qing do this? Were they secretly training these students from the very beginning?” Luo Miao helplessly sighed . However unwilling he was, he could not deny the fact that these Yu Qing students had true skill; none of which was just talk .

In the beginning, Luo Miao had tried to comfort himself, thinking that Yu Qing Sect only had these one or two especially skilled students . But now that all had ended, every Yu Qing student, excluding Ye Zan, had reigned victorious in every round . They had brought with them nine students, and seven of them had already displayed astounding skills . What more could be said?

Wang Lianshan nodded and rubbed the cup of tea in his hand as he said: “It looks like we have lowered our guard on the Yu Qing Sect . When we return, we must make further plans . I do not wish for Yu Qing Sect to produce another Qi Qianjun . ”

“Hm, let them bask in it for some more time . There are people more displeased with Yu Qing’s change . ” Luo Miao said, smiling coldly .

Wang Lianshan paused for a moment, before tentatively asking: “Brother Luo, I was wondering if you could give my Sect an idea? We have been anticipating an opportunity for a long time . ”

“This? Don’t be anxious . What type of existence does the opposing side employ? How could I possibly give an idea? All must be determined by timing . If the timing is correct, I will obviously give this referral . After all, a firm partnership is best for both of us . ” Luo Miao explained sincerely .

Although Luo Miao’s words were reasonable, they could still not hide his hesitation . Wang Lianshan was unsatisfied but did not display his emotions . After speaking a little more with Luo Maio, Wang Lianshan bid his goodbyes and returned to his Sect to prepare for the Closed Realm .

However, upon leaving the base of the Jin Guang Sect, Wang Lianshan could not help but to mutter, silently cursing: What is there to be proud of? Big deal that you have a big backer! The strongest support is no good is you yourself are weak . My Wu Zhu Sect can win this competition on its own!

This competition had come as quite a blow to the students of the Jin Guang Sect and the Wu Zhu Sect . The privilege and pride they had felt in the past seemed to have been switched with their opponent .

To boost morale, Luo Miao and Wang Lianshan had repeatedly told their students that what happened in the Closed Realm was the actual important part . But, no one was blind . Yu Qing’s students were all uncommonly skilled . How could that change when entering the Closed Realm . Thinking of the events of that day’s competition, the students of the two Sects could not help but be dismayed at the thought of this trip .  

Wang Lianshan returned to his Sect’s base . Walking into the courtyard, he saw all of his students had a look of desolation about them and knew that what he had said in the daytime had not taken effect within them .

“You guys, go call the others to my room . ” Wang Lianshan took a look at the courtyard before ordering his students and returning to his room .

The students quickly gathered in Wang Lianshan’s room . Anxious at their prediction of a lecture, they stood in two rows of eleven . Standing before Wang Lainshan, they lowered their heads, waiting for the fury that was to come .

But who knew? Wang Lianshan did not fly into a fury . Although one could not say that he was gentle and kind, at least he was calm as he ordered: “Raise your heads . ”

His students all raised their heads to look at him .

Wang Lianshan suddenly smiled . Leaning back against his chair, he looked to be careless, as he asked: “Do you think that this trip into the Closed Realm will be difficult for us because we have an opponent like the Yu Qing Sect?”

“Your student does not dare!” The entirety of the students hurriedly shook their heads in denial, despite what they felt in their hearts .

“The skill of the Yu Qing students was truly out of your teacher’s predictions . However, do not think that we have not made any preparations . ” Wang Lianshan lightly said before reaching into his carrying space, and removing two items, placing them on the table .

The students looked at the table and saw two items . One was a boundless space and the other was a messenger firework . These two things were rather common, especially the fireworks . And, although the boundless space was just a space for storage, it also counted as a magical treasure . As a result, those in the Refining State were unable to use it .

Then, what was the meaning of their teacher taking out these two items? At that moment, the students were stumped . They really could not link these two things with the “preparation” Wang Lianshan had spoken about .
