Chapter 185 The Overbearing Underdog

(Mustang: Regular Chapter.)

The balloting began; Mo Nan, Jing Feng, Blue Dragon, Wang Feng and Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu embarked onto the stage to draw their numbers.

The five of them were quite nervous, and also a bit worried.

They knew that there was not much difference in their personal strength and that of their competitors, which mean that winning each match would be a very difficult task.

Even though Wang Feng, Blue Dragon, Jing Feng and Mo Nan were friends outside the ring, they didnt engage in any sort of a conversation this time since they were all on alert due to the competition that they were about to face.

The balloting ended very quickly with Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu drawing one and Jing Feng drawing two; Blue Dragon ended up pulling out three, whereas Wang Feng drew four, and Mo Nan was left with the number five, and a bye in the morning round.

The spectators started discussing all possible scenarios once the balloting results were out.

Many people had already analyzed the situation at hand, and were now beginning to pick their favorites.

Since everyone had a differential opinion and assessment, the debate on picking a winner was obviously quite fierce.

Jing Feng and Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu were asked to report to the stage for the first fight of the tie-breakers.

Brother Bi Fan, youve fought against Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu do you think that I can beat her? Jing Feng asked, unsure of his chances.

Brother Jing Feng, do you wish to hear the truth, or a lie? Bi Fan asked.

The truth; of course.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu is stronger than you; but I suggest that you force her to consume as much energy as possible, and then abandon the fight prematurely. Bi Fan suggested.

Good! Ill do my best. Jing Feng nodded.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu was surely going to use The Fiend Fright Burst, plus she also the Green-colored Phoenix for support, so her chances of winning were naturally higher.

Jing Feng straight away launched his best moves once the fight started.

Since Jing Feng was under no pressure to perform well, he was able to cast out his skills to his best ability.

On the other hand, Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu started out with The Fiend Fright Burst and The Yin Yang sword in an attempt to end the fight as early as possible.

Once The Fiend Fright Burst came into play, Jing Fengs strength started to gradually weaken.

However, Jing Feng knew that he had nothing to lose.

And as result, Jing Feng was fighting with all his strength, and only conserved a small amount of his true strength for emergency usage.

Jing Fengs energy levels were much deeper than Xuan Yuan Xiao Yus, so even though her evil spirits were decreasing Jing Fengs output, Jing Feng was still able to persist for a long time.

One hour passed in an instant and Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu finally started to suppress Jing Feng.

However, she still hadnt summoned her beast pet yet, which clearly indicated that the Phoenix still hadnt fully recovered from its injuries.

Even though Jing Feng was struggling to cope up with Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu at this point, he continued to strive hard since he wished to tire her out as much as possible.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu had already realized Jing Fengs intentions, but still couldnt do anything about it.

Because Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu wouldnt get any assistance from any of her competitors, winning the third place was likely to become a very hard task for her.

The fighting continued for another hour, and Jing Fengs momentum continued to weaken under the effect of Xuan Yuan Xiao Yus inauspicious aura.

I give up! Jing Feng finally abandoned the fight, unable to persist any longer, and unwilling to incur any injuries.

Since he knew that he was beaten, he didnt see any reason to put himself in harms way.

Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu seemed very depressed, even though she had won the match. In fact, she punched the air in frustration as she descended down the stage.

Now that Jing Feng and Xuan Yuan Xiao Yus contest was over, it was time for Blue Dragon and Wang Feng to take the stage.

Brother Blue Dragon and Wang Fengs contest is very crucial ah. If Brother Blue Dragon beats Wnag Feng with ease, then I can give him a walkover and then hell be fresh against a tired Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu Jing Feng analyzed.

Yeah, we need to act unanimously if we wish to spearhead Xuan Yuan Xiao Yu. If we wish to beat her, then well need to pick the strongest amongst ourselves, and well have to save his energy. Mo Nan added in agreement.

Bi Fan laughed: Well, thats one way to go about it.

Although there had been no discussion on this subject, Wang Feng, Mo Nan, Jing Feng and Blue Dragon were all carrying the same idea.

As for Luo Xiao Tian and Ling Xin Ya, since they hated the Wu Ji Sect, they were onboard by default. As long the Wu Ji Sect lost, the Quinyang Sect and the City Sect were willing to participate unconditionally.

Blue Dragon and Wang Feng made their salutations, and the contest began.

Both the men started casting out their best skills with their real strengths right from the start since they wished to determine the better fighter, and wanted to preserve their strengths to compete against their common enemy.

Wang Fengs challenge was backed by his deep energy levels and profound combat experience.

Even though Blue Dragons internal energy wasnt as strong as Wang Fengs, his physical strength was profound enough to give him an edge over Wang Feng.

Their fierce and powerful fight was attracting a lot of cheers from the stands, and the spectators were really enjoying the show.

They are both equally strong. This is going to be very difficult. Jing Feng observed.

Bi Fan said: Wrong; Brother Blue Dragon hasnt used his physical strength yet once he starts using his combined strength, hell gain the upper hand in no time at all.

Well, in that case, Brother Blue Dragon is as sick as you are, and Im not going to waste any energy against him. Jing Feng laughed.

Arghhh! Blue Dragon suddenly revealed his entire strength, and his momentum immediately become extremely overbearing.

Wang Feng didnt seem very surprised by it: first there was Bi Fan, then Li Qian Xun, and now this guy as well it seems that physical strength is genuinely very important.

While Wang Feng was trying to analyze this fact, Blue Dragon had already launched a violent attack.

Boom! the collision of their weapons gave rise to a loud noise, and Wang Feng was sent repelling.

Pop pop. Wang Feng retreated a few steps to regain his balance.

He had barely regained his footing and Blue Dragon was already upon him again, leaving him with no other option but to face this violent onslaught.

Even though Wang Feng tried to fight back, things got even worse this time around, and he was sent another seven or eight steps back.

Blue Dragon wasnt going to easy either, and continued to attack ferociously.

Blue Dragons scimitar drifted seamlessly through the air, imposing its masters will.

The scimitar was so quick in Blue Dragons hands, that Wang Feng was barely able to cope up.

Blue Dragon kept increasing the speed and strength of his attacks, and Wang Feng was unable to find any room to breathe.

Wang Feng realized that he wouldnt be able to defeat Blue Dragon barely a few minutes into the contest, and gave up.

Blue Dragon, I admit by defeat. And I hope that we have more chances to test our strengths against each other in the future. Wang Feng stated sincerely.

Brother Wang Feng, thanks for letting me win. Blue Dragon replied modestly.
