Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The competition was in full swing, with the two contestants on stage already engaged in battle.
While still somewhat childlike, the match was considerably more exciting than the previous ones.
However, there was a significant difference in their strengths. Nangong Xuyao had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, while Huangfu Ruixiang was only at the middle stage of the Qi Condensation Stage. Hence, the outcome was predetermined.
As expected, in less than 15 minutes, Nangong Xuyao emerged victorious, a result that had been anticipated by the spectators.
Witnessing Nangong Xuyao’s triumph, Zhongyu Jiarui couldn’t help but smile. Although it was only the first round, she found Nangong Xuyao’s performance outstanding. She believed that if he continued on this trajectory, he could keep winning. At that point, her father would undoubtedly hold him in high regard, and their plans would fall into place.
On the other hand, Huangfu Ruixiang, who had been defeated and knocked off the stage, felt deeply embarrassed. Despite mentally preparing for the possibility, being eliminated in the first round was still difficult to accept.
Maintaining composure in front of the audience, he swiftly stood up, though his expression remained grim. Nangong Xuyao gestured with a cupped hand before leaving the stage.
With the competition lost, Huangfu Ruixiang had no intention of lingering. Staying would only subject him to mockery.
Shortly after Huangfu Ruixiangs departure, Huangfu Ruiling spoke a few words to a person beside him. Following that, the person left.
With a downcast expression, Huangfu Ruixiang felt he might soon depart the
Hidden World due to his failure. Although he had previously speculated about Huangfu Ling being Huangfu Ruiling, lacking substantial evidence, he had contacted his parents who claimed both were absent. However, absence did not confirm his assumptions.
He also wanted to find an opportunity to probe, but his identity lacked the qualifications to approach Huangfu Ling and Ye An’an directly. Now, with his imminent departure, such opportunities became even more elusive.
As Huangfu Ruixiang left the square, someone called out to him from behind.
Turning to the person, he expressed surprise. “Senior Brother, is there something you want to discuss with me?”
He recognized this senior brother who usually oversaw the daily training of their group of disciples. However, since he was in an overall supervisory role, they didn’t have many opportunities to meet. Unexpectedly, this senior brother had come to find him at this moment.
“Huangfu Ruixiang, starting tomorrow, the family will assign a teacher for you. Follow the teacher and cultivate diligently!” The senior brother declared directly, “I’ve also arranged a new accommodation for you. When you return, pack up. Someone will take you to the new residence.”
After conveying this, the senior brother departed, leaving Huangfu Ruixiang bewildered.
His emotions swiftly transitioned from despair to elation. Just a moment ago, he fretted over his defeat, but now he learned of the clan’s intention to nurture him. This revelation was an enormous surprise.
While joyous, he began speculating. Could his previous conjecture be correct? Were Huangfu Ruiling and Huangfu Ling the same person, explaining their leniency?
Speculations aside, no conclusions had been reached.
Seizing the opportunity to test the waters seemed imperative. If Huangfu Ruiling and Huangfu Ling were indeed the same person, then he…
The thought of this made him unable to contain his excitement. For him, it was indeed a tremendous opportunity. One could imagine how bright his future would be if he turned out to be the younger brother of the family head.
Observing Huangfu Ruixiangs demeanor, others thought he resembled a winner rather than someone defeated.
In the square, Ye Lengan glanced at Huangfu Ruiling with a half-smile. “Are you arranging for Huangfu Ruixiang to stay?”
“Yes.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “It was a prior decision, giving him a chance.
However, it’s only an opportunity. Ultimately, it depends on him.”
Ye Lengan chuckled. “Then he won’t stay for long! Given his talent, the
Hidden World is not a place he can remain.”
“That’s his concern,” Huangfu Ruiling said nonchalantly. “I’ve given him a chance; it’s the extent of my goodwill. His future is no longer my concern.”
Ye Lengan nodded and continued, “That’s fair. But aren’t you worried he’ll become suspicious?”
“What does it matter to me?” Huangfu Ruiling replied indifferently. “Even if he suspects, does he have any evidence? Even if he becomes certain, what can he do? As long as I don’t acknowledge him as my younger brother, he won’t have any standing in the Huangfu family.”
Ye Lengan found it amusing. “True, Huangfu Ruixiang holds no position in the Huangfu family, and his words carry no weight..”
