Chapter 39 Wake up, wake up
The competition proceeds very quickly, and one round can be completed in basically a quarter of an the first six rounds of competition, there was basically a huge gap in strength.
Su Chen looked around and saw six disciples.
Although I kept giving up and was eliminated in every round, there were too many people.
From the seventh round onwards, except for the disciples under Ji Sheng, their strength seemed to be no longer ordinary.
At this time, Su Chen was standing beside Ji Sheng.
Just like before, he waved his hand, motioning Su Chen to come forward.
"Mr. Ji, I don't want to admit defeat in this competition."
Hearing Su Chen's words, Ji Sheng smiled slightly.
"If you don't want to admit defeat, then wait a little longer until other disciples who are willing to admit defeat come up first."
After saying that, he arranged for other people to come forward.
And in this seventh round of competition, there were finally some strong contests.
Years ago, the strength of these young disciples was almost at the middle stage of the eighth level of refining essence.
However, their speed and the power of their moves were close to the seventh rank.
The people watching the competition around also had a more serious look in their eyes.
It has been said before that this year's students are stronger than those in previous years, but many people are unwilling to admit it.
But when they saw these young disciples taking action, everyone believed it.
In the center of the stands, a group of elders also had smiles on their faces.
These outstanding young disciples will be the backbone of Tiangang City in the future and the cornerstone of its growth.
Su Chen also looked at these disciples, and their strength was indeed impressive.
In fact, he is a few points better than some people in Senior Brother Wu Yi's team.
As for the disciples under Ji Sheng, they still chose to admit defeat.
If it were the previous few rounds, he would still have some confidence.
But now, he knew he had no chance of winning.
After the seventh round of competition, Ji Sheng turned around and looked at Su Chen.
"Do you still want to have a competition?"
Su Chen nodded without hesitation.
"Then you should wait until everyone else has lost before you go up."
Ji Sheng hoped that all his disciples would admit defeat to avoid any trouble for him.
Looking at the other coaches, they have to keep a close eye on the students all the time, which takes a lot of energy.
Not far away, Ouyang Chuan saw that Su Chen had not yet entered the court, and walked over with a smile on his face.
"Why hasn't Su Chen made his debut yet? Is Mr. Ji planning to let him be the last one to appear?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, and his voice was loud enough for everyone around to hear.
Wu Yi, Yao Xiaoyu and others who were watching the competition also looked a little worried.
Hearing this, Ji Sheng also smiled.
"After all, he is the disciple who defeated Liu Xingwan. Isn't it normal for him to be the last one?"
Ji Sheng did not speak up for his disciples. Instead, he and Ouyang Chuan teased Su Chen.
"That's right, such a good player should be the finale.
However, I am really looking forward to it and want to see how powerful a disciple of this strength is.
I hope that by then, I won’t admit defeat after entering the venue.”
Ouyang Chuan said some teasing words and returned to his seat.
It was already late afternoon and the competition had reached its tenth round.
The subsequent competitions were not as fast as the first one. The competition was evenly matched and the outcome was no longer decided by one or two moves.
Ten of Ji Sheng's disciples went on stage first, but all of them chose to admit defeat.
Basically, whoever faces the opponent will have a bye.
After the tenth round, Elder Shangxuan looked towards Ji Sheng with a hint of disappointment and helplessness on his face.
And Ji Sheng looked at Su Chen again.
"Do you still want to compete?"
Su Chen did not hesitate and nodded.
"Okay, if you're not afraid, go ahead.
I've told you both good and bad things. Your talent and potential are far inferior to theirs. You are not a warrior of the same level as them.
For some things, just lie to others, but don't lie to yourself. Do you really think you can be better than Xia Liuxing?
Anyway, I have said everything that needs to be said. If you don't learn your lesson, then you will have to suffer a little.
Then you will know that what we coaches said is absolutely right."
Ji Sheng was saying something that seemed to be advising Su Chen, for Su Chen's own good.
But in fact, I still hope that Su Chen will choose to admit defeat and not bother him.
In the competition venue, each coach also sent out his disciples.
But under the coach, all the disciples were eliminated.
Including Su Chen, there were only five people in total.
Several coaches stepped aside to discuss the ranking.
In the competition venue, the other four people's eyes fell on Su Chen.
"Senior Sister Jin Yue, I heard that your Mr. Ouyang hates him?"
Someone nearby asked.
Hearing this, Jin Yue nodded.
“Before practicing cultivation, one must first cultivate virtue. Mr. Ouyang had previously arranged for him to start with the cultivation of virtue.
Let him dare to act and take responsibility, and learn the words of the saints carefully.
It's just that he didn't agree with Mr. Ouyang's arrangement and said that Mr. Ouyang had delayed him.
And until now he has not admitted that he was greedy for credit.
I even think that it’s okay for my contribution to exceed Liu Xingwan’s.”
"Delay him? What is there to delay?" The disciple next to him answered, his eyes sweeping over Su Chen.
As he spoke, Jin Yue thought for a moment and then walked towards Su Chen.
"Su Chen, we are originally of the same generation, so there are some reminders that I shouldn't give.
But during this period of time, the reputation of our Tiangang City has been affected because of you.
Tiangang City has treated you well enough by accepting you into their sect.
I hope you can think about the sect and stop messing around."
Looking at Jin Yue in front of him, Su Chen frowned slightly.
"I don't know what you mean by that, my fellow disciple. When did I ever do anything that would harm Tiangang City?
When did you start making trouble again? "
"Don't you even realize when you're messing around?"
Jin Yue shook her head.
"Didn't you quarrel with the Yunyang Sect's Xia Kun during the initiation ceremony that day and act like a fool?
Wasn’t the dispute between you and Mr. Ouyang just nonsense?
Personal reputation is important, but if you don’t admit it, no one will know that you have ever tried to take credit for someone else’s work?
Could it be that your demon-slaying ability is really better than Liu Xingwan's?"
After hearing these words, Su Chen no longer wanted to talk to her anymore.
It seemed that what she believed was the fact and it could not be wrong.
He tried to wipe the stain off himself, but now he says he was just fooling around.
"Su Chen, you can't even beat us, so how can you possibly beat Liu Xingwan?"
Jin Yue seemed to want to say something, but Su Chen responded directly.
"The competition hasn't even started yet, how do you know I can't beat you?"
Hearing this, the four people nearby were stunned.
The next moment, a helpless expression appeared on Jin Yue's face.
It feels like I have met a scoundrel and I can't explain myself even if I am right.
"Okay, since you said so, let's talk about it after the competition is over."
When turning around, Jin Yue seemed to think of something and looked back again.
"I always thought you were just making excuses and didn't want to admit that you were greedy for credit.
But now, I feel that you are slightly hysterical.
Your frequent fantasies make you think that you have extraordinary abilities.
He could even surpass Liu Xingwan.
But little did they know that it was all imagination.
I hope this competition can wake you up and make you sober."
