The reason he wanted to seize the championship in the Clan Martial Meet was exactly for the generous prizes.
Now that Patriarch Li Ao had asked him to admit defeat and even promised to compensate him with the same prize laterâŚ
With Li Ao having said this much, no matter what, he should give Li Ao some face.
But.
His opponent was now standing on the combat arena and gazing at him condescendingly. The white-clothed youth that looked at him in contempt really caused him to feel extremely displeased.
He could imagine how complacent the youth would be at the moment he admits defeat.
On the high platform.
Li Ao frowned when he noticed that Duan Ling Tian wasnât swayed by his offer. He took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind on something.
âDuan Ling Tian, besides compensating you for the championâs prizes, in addition, Iâll give you a promise. In the future, I will agree to help you with a matter that is within my ability and conforms to reason. How about it?â
Li Ao gave the final concession.
Duan Ling Tian couldnât help but be moved.
Patriarch Li Aoâs promiseâŚ
That was something even 10,000 gold wouldnât be able to get you!
He didnât expect that Patriarch Li Ao would provide such a concession just to allow Li Qing to obtain the championâs position in the Clan Martial Meet.
Of course, he could guess why Li Ao was doing so.
The Li Clanâs yearly Martial Meet has always been an event of great importance.
If the Li Clan Martial Meet champion was obtained by a disciple with another surname, if the news spread out, the Li Clan was bound to be ridiculedâŚ
The Li Clan couldnât accept such a disgrace!
No matter what, Li Ao was still the Li Clanâs Patriarch
If Duan Ling Tian wanted to continue staying in the Li Clan, no matter what, he had to give Li Ao some face.
In addition, Li Ao had already made such concessions.
If he was still unwilling, it would be hardly justifiable.
âI admit defeat!â under everyoneâs gazes, Duan Ling Tian said, in a calm manner, following which he returned to the side of the three girls.
His goal was to obtain the three-hundred-fifty-year-old Blood Lingzhi.
Now that heâs obtained the Blood Lingzhi, it could be considered as a satisfactory outcome.
As for the reputation of champion, he didnât really care about it.
Admit defeat?
The people who were waiting for the match between Li Qing and Duan Ling Tian with extreme anticipation were struck dumb.
Duan Ling Tian admitted defeat?
ThisâŚ
Since Duan Ling Tian appeared, he had the bearing of a dark horse, sweeping through all opposition in a domination manner, without any fear whatsoever.
But now he actually admitted defeat.
This kind of drastic change caused most of the people present to be unable to accept it.
On the combat arena.
Hearing Duan Ling Tian admit defeat, Li Qing was dazed for a moment.
âTo think I even took you as an opponent, but now it looks like youâre not worthy to be my opponent.â
Li Qing looked at the nearby violet-clothed youth that was surrounded by the three girls. The disdain in his eyes was ever stronger, vaguely containing a trace of envy.
âIâve judged him wrongly. I thought he would have the courage to battle Li Qinf.â
âTo think he even possess the strength of three ancient mammoths; looks really can be deceiving.â
âThere really is a difference between the Core Formation Stage and the Body Tempering Stage in the end.â
âLI Qing deserves to be our Li Clanâs top disciple in the younger generation. He has a well-deserved reputation!â
âŚâŚ
The crowds discussion was one-sided.
Even the people who looked favorably upon Duan Ling Tian earlier had now turned around and belittled Duan Ling Tian to their heartsâ content, praising Li Qing.
âDuan Ling Tian, why did you admit defeat?â
Li Shi Shiâs beautiful eyebrows frowned, unable to understand Duan Ling Tianâs decision.
She even felt like the current Duan Ling Tian was that much more unfamiliarâŚ
The Duan Ling Tian she knew, the Duan Ling Tian she liked, was not the type of person to run before a battle.
In a blink of the eye, Duan Ling Tianâs image in her heart suffered a disastrous decline.
âI felt like admitting defeat, so I admitted defeat,â Duan Ling Tian casually said.
âYou!â
Li Shi Shi was flustered and exasperated, stomping her feet as she walked away angrily.
âArenât the two of you curious?â
Duan Ling Tianâs eyes narrowed as he looked at the two young girls beside him who had not spoken up till now.
âSince Young Master decided to do this, then surely Young Master has own intentions.â
Ke Er lightly smiled.
âYou got a considerable amount of rewards from the Patriarch, right?â
Li Fei glanced deeply at Duan Ling Tian.
âYouâŚhow did you know?â
Duan Ling Tian was dumbstruck. He looked at the seductive and beautiful young girl with a slightly shocked expression.
The young girl smiled mysteriously.
âFei Fei!â
Unknowingly when, Li Qing had arrived at Li Feiâs side, his burning gaze descending upon Li Fei.
Li Fei, however, ignored him.
âFei Fei, this Branch Family disciple that doesnât even have the courage to battle me isnât worthy of you.â
Li Qing took a deep breath, his tone filled with disdain.
Duan Ling Tianâs eyes turned cold.
âLi Qing, whether he is worthy of me or not has nothing to do with you⌠But I know, that I will never choose you, so youâd be better off forgetting about me and stop annoying me.â
Li Fei look at Li Qing in detest.
âLetâs go over there.â
Li Fei called Duan Ling Tian and Ke Er over.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. Before leaving, he didnât forget to smile at Li Qing in a threatening manner.
His smile caused Li Qingâs expression to turn gloomy, and killing intent started to pour from his eyes.
Duan Ling Tian!
The killing intent emitted from Li Qingâs eyes was naturally noticed by Duan Ling Tian.
But killing intent at that level, in Duan Ling Tianâs opinion, was just like childâs play.
This Li Qing probably hasnât even killed a man before.
His killing intent lacked blood thirst.
Following the end of Li Qing and Duan Ling Tianâs battle, where Duan Ling Tian admitted defeat, the Li Clan Martial Meet entered its finale.
The final results were released.
This yearâs Clan Martial Meet top ten were as follows:
Champion, Li Qing, 86 points.
Second, Duan Ling Tian, 84 points.
Third, Li An, 82 points.
Fourth, Li Fei, 80 points.
Fifth, Li Zhong, 78 points.
Sixth, Li Hu, 76 points.
Seventh, Li Kuang, 74, points.
Eight, Li Shi Shi, 72 points.
Ninth, Ke Er, 70 points.
Tenth, Li Yuan, 68 points.
Ke Er didnât enter the arena for the battle between Li Shi Shi, directly admitting defeat.
As far as she was concerned, she was best friends with Li Shi Shi, so she wasnât willing to cross blades with herâŚ
After this was the the moment where the Li Clanâs Patriarch personally distributed the prizes.
When they went home, Duan Ling Tian was still in a group of three, only Li Shi Shi wasnât within it now.
Li Fei had replaced Li Shi Shi.
Inner court Martial Arts Practice Field.
As Li Qing stood there, his body emitted a frightful presence.
He was looking from afar at the violet-clothed youth and Li Fei chatting as their shadows faded in the distanceâŚ
âLi Qing, how about we join hands and find an opportunity to teach that Duan Ling Tian a lesson?â
Unknowingly when, Li An had arrived beside Li Qing and voiced his suggestion.
âHumph!â
Li Qing coldly swept Li An with his gaze, his expression filled with disdain.
âLi An, youâre the same as him, both opponents that have suffered defeat at my hands⌠Do you think I would join hands with a defeated opponent to deal with another defeated opponent?â
Li Qing was extremely arrogant, using a condescending tone as he spoke with Li An.
âSince youâre not interested, then forget it.â
Li An laughed embarrassedly before turning around and leaving.
At the instant he turned around, his expression was extremely ugly, and his eyes flickered with a frightful coldness.
Duan Ling Tian and the two girls had just returned home.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two little pythons flew towards Duan Ling Tian and Ke Er, coiling around their wrists.
After which, they extended their small heads to size up the young girl with a seducing body and beautiful appearance. Their eyes were filled with curiosityâŚ
âThese are⌠snakes you two are raising?â
Li Fei was slightly startled when she saw them.
âSo cute.â
Under Duan Ling Tianâs slightly dazed gaze, Li Fei extended her hand to touch the little black python that was coiled on his wrist.
The little black python closed its eyes in enjoyment.
After a short moment, the little black pythonâs body flashed as it actually coiled itself around Li Feiâs wrist.
âPervert!â
Duan Ling Tian looked at the little black python with an envious gaze.
âTian, Ke Er, who is this?â
At this moment, Li Rou walked out of her room, her gaze completely attracted by Li Fei.
Li Fei was really too outstanding.
In terms of appearance, she was not even slightly inferior to Ke Er.
Moreover, because of her age being eighteen, she had fully revealed her womanly charms.
âMom, this is your future daughter-in-law.â
Duan Ling Tian laughed slyly.
âHello Aunt Rou, Iâm Li Fei.â
Giving Duan Ling Tian an angry look, Li Fei lightly smiled as she greeted Li Rou.
âGood, good. You all talk, Iâll go prepare dinner.â
Li Rouâs face seemed to bleed like a flower as she entered the kitchen.
âMadam, Iâll help you.â
Ke Er followed behind.
âLittle Fei, you still havenât told me how you knew that I obtained rewards from the Patriarch and purposely admitted defeat.â
Duan Ling Tianâs eyes stared fixedly at Li Fei.
âWhy should I tell you?â
Li Fei gave Duan Ling Tian a disdainful glare.
âYouâre my future wife, whatâs with all the whyâs?â
Duan Ling Tian laughed slyly.
âPei! Youâre shameless. Whoâs your future wife.â
Li Fei ignored Duan Ling Tian altogether, extending her jade-like hand to lightly play with the little python.
The little python wasnât even slightly shy with stranger, playing happily on Li Feiâs hand.
As a amorous weapons specialist who swept through the flower bushes, Duan Ling Tian was naturally able to notice that since he saved Li Fei on the combat arena, Li Feiâs attitude towards him was completely different.
If he was so coquettish to her before, she would surely get enraged.
He believed that as long as he put in a bit more effort, he would surely be able to completely conquer the peerless seductive beauty before himâŚ
Not long after, someone paid them a visit.
Someone had sent over an extremely long box.
Duan Ling Tian opened it and smiled in satisfaction at what he saw.
He didnât expect Patriarch Li Ao to have such high efficiency, sending over the items so quickly.
Li Fei recognized the Blood Lingzhi that lay in the box. She was startled for a moment before looking at Duan Ling Tian in disbelief.
âDidnât you already guess it?â
Duan Ling Tian smiled.
âYour prizes this time are even better than Li Qingâs. Li Qing only got the prize for the champion, but you not only obtained the championâs prize, you also got the prize for the top three.â
Li Fei glanced at Duan Ling Tian in admiration.
âHow about it? Me being your man wonât bring shame to you, right?â
Duan Ling Tian laughed slyly, his burning gaze descending upon the two jade-like hills on Li Feiâs chest. His lower regions became slightly hot.
âWhere are you looking?â
Li Feiâs beautiful eyebrows knit together as her seducing face blushed until her neck.
âYouâre so beautiful.â
Duan Ling Tianâs breathing became rapid, he took a deep breath before finally being able to ease up his restless mood.
âReally?â
âEven pearls arenât so real.â
âDidnât you say that I need to lose weight?â
