Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 318 - Admit Defeat?

Chapter 318: Admit Defeat?

“Master Lan, it looks like the Fang family has gotten the first advantage this time.” The Fang family head glanced at Master Lan, delight clear on his face. All these years, the Fang family had pitifully few talents and always ended up losing during the sparring with the Lan family. This time, he could finally hold his head high and vent his anger. Since they had won the first match and it was a good start, he was feeling proud.
“Master Fang, the competition has not ended. There is no need to get excited so soon,” Master Lan snorted.
“I know that your young granddaughter is already at Battle Qi Level-8, but it would be best if you don’t allow her into the ring. If anything were to happen to her, it might affect the harmony between our two families,” the Fang family head said nonchalantly, but his gaze was ruthless.
Fang Yuanqiu who was standing on the stage shook the blood off his sword, then pointed at Lan Xinyu and the rest as he said arrogantly, “Next.”
The sparring between the Lan family and the Fang family always followed the car wheel tactic, where both sides would battle until only one person remained standing, and that person would be declared the winner.
Lan Xinyu was about to go onto the stage when a young man who was standing nearby stopped her with a serious look. “Let me go first. You should observe the match.” This was the strongest disciple in the Lan family after Lan Xinyu.
Lan Xinyu paused uncertainly. This was not the time to be arrogant. It was a major event that would determine the rise and fall of the family. Fang Yuanqiu was unpredictable, so it would be good to study his abilities first.
In the fighting ring, the Lan family disciple had already drawn his sword and his Battle Qi that had just reached the eighth level erupted with an astonishing strength. Fang Yuanqiu glanced at him indifferently, and his sword glimmered once again.
This time, Ling Chuxi concentrated on him. Right before he attacked with his sword, Fang Yuanqiu moved two of his fingers into a strange gesture. The Battle Qi within his body instantly changed from Level-8 to Level-9.
Although the gesture looked normal, it gave off a sharp feeling like a knife. This finger gesture definitely held some kind of secret! Ling Chuxi immediately committed it to heart.
On Fang Yuanqiu’s sword, a dazzling light appeared, like a rainbow piercing the sun.
Once again, one move was all it took to slash the Lan family’s disciple out of the fighting ring. There was a gruesome wound left on his chest.
“Battle Qi Level-9!” Master Lan stood up abruptly as he finally determined the cultivation level of the move. The information he had obtained beforehand was not wrong – turns out that Fang Yuanqiu had really obtained the cultivation of Battle Qi Level-9. However, with his cultivation, he did not notice the wondrous finger gesture.
The Lan family disciple was quickly taken away. Master Lan sat down weakly, a depressed look appearing on his wrinkled face. Battle Qi Level-9 was a whole level higher than Lan Xinyu. The Lan family had no hopes of winning this time.
Fang Yuanqiu flicked his sword as he pointed at Lan Xinyu and said loudly, “Next!” He stared at her smugly, totally disregarding the rest.
“Forget it.” Master Lan shook his head and sighed heavily. Since Fang Yuanqiu had already reached Battle Qi Level-9, it was meaningless to continue competing like this.
Right before Master Lan could admit defeat, a beautiful girl leaped into the fighting ring – Lan Xinyu.
“Xinyu, come back! We… admit defeat.” Master Lan shouted at Lan Xinyu reluctantly, gritting his teeth. Lan Xinyu was a level of genius that was hard to find within even a hundred people of the Lan family. She was also the hope of the Lan family’s future – he could not see her get hurt. Even if he had to give up the imperial merchants’ business, he could not let her take the risk.
