Everyone only realized that from the beginning, the gaze of pity was placed in the losers’ matches. Thus, when he faced Xiao Shu, he retained the most of his combat strength.
In the end, with an "ease and rest," he defeated an opponent covered in scars.
There is no doubt that this is contemptible.
Those who came to the Guanhe Platform are the pride of various nations. Each person has their pride, and very few would make such a choice!
Huang Sheri of Jingguo even led the jeering from the stands.
But Qiao Lin remained unfazed.
He now stands here, while his opponent has fallen.
No one can deny his victory, nor can they take away his spot in the main competition.
That was enough for him.
He stands proudly on the Arena, treating the disdain coming from all directions as praise. With an attitude that seemed to convey "Momentary honor or disgrace means nothing to me," he earned the silent nods of many of the upper echelons.
No matter what, Qiao Lin won his spot in the main competition fairly within the rules. That is the final outcome. freewёbnoνel.com
Decades later, when people look back on this Yellow River Gathering, they’ll probably only remember which place Summer Country took. Who would remember how he won it?
Lin Zhengren of Zhuang Country, Ye Luzhi of Liang Country, Yin Wenhua of Song Country, Xiao Shu of Dan Country, Beigong Ke of Yong Country, Huang Su of Liang Country, Xie Ai of Snow Country, Dongguo Bao of Wei Country, Jiang Shaohua of Shen Country, and Qiao Lin of Summer Country.
These ten people, along with six talents from the major nations, make up the roster for the Yellow River Meeting’s Inner Mansion Arena main competition. It can be said to be a radiant gathering of stars, glittering and splendid, without a single weakling.
As Jiang Wang was about to get up and leave, suddenly, there was a "buzz" from around the stands, and many people exchanged whispers, completely abandoning the use of transmitted messages, and the crowd erupted into a noisy tumult!
An astonishing piece of news was being frantically passed around, completely overshadowing the disdain for Qiao Lin.
As a "big mouth" among the strong, Qiao Lin was naturally among the first to receive the news.
When this startling news reached Jiang Wang’s ears, even he was stunned for a moment—
"The pride of Jinguo’s Inner Mansion Realm has withdrawn from the competition!"
There is a vacancy in the sixteen-person roster of the Yellow River Meeting’s Inner Mansion Arena main competition.
A single stone has stirred up a thousand waves!
Perhaps it’s because the roster for the final competition was just being confirmed that Jinguo’s side had only now verified this news.
Jinguo, which is widely recognized as the strongest nation in the world, always aiming for the top three spots, actually gave up a spot in the Yellow River Meeting’s Inner Mansion competition?
Why? What happened?
Of course, this caused a lot of speculation, perplexity, and probing.
But at this moment, maybe this question should be considered later. For many people present, perhaps another question is more pressing—Who will get the vacancy in the Yellow River Meeting’s Inner Mansion Arena main competition? Who has a chance?
People eagerly passed the message around, and for a while, the scene was out of control.
Amidst the commotion, a tall figure suddenly flew into the arena, hovering high above the center. With a face resembling a deep red jujube, long eyebrows, and a high nose, he exuded a commanding presence.
He turned around to let everyone see his face clearly and notice his resolute gaze.
Only then did he say: "I, Xian Nankui, currently serve as the Commander of the Divine Strategy Army. Some here already know this news, others do not, so I will officially repeat it."
He looked around with a commanding stare: "Jinguo, as the host, does not seek to contend with guests in all matters, so we have given up our spot in this edition of the Yellow River Meeting’s Inner Mansion Arena, to give everyone an opportunity to compete for the top spot."
His voice was not loud, but it calmly subdued the noise of the crowd.
Today, within this Martial Arts Field enshrouded by the Pillar of the Six Harmonies, although many important figures have come, after all, no high-ranking official from the top six nations is present.
Among the many people here, no one stands higher than Xian Nankui.
Therefore, his words held a certain arrogance.
"General Xian!"
Suddenly, Jiang Wang heard a familiar voice and turned his head, "Whiny-face" Cao Jie had taken a seat beside him without his noticing.
The man sat in the stands, looking up at Xian Nankui hovering in the center of the Arena, with a bitter expression on his face, yet speaking in a way that caught everyone’s attention: "If you’re giving up, then give up, but don’t speak out of line."
At this time, on several separate Arenas, there were still three talents who had secured the last spots for the main competition.
But everyone’s gaze could only be drawn towards Xian Nankui floating in mid-air.
Even the most exceptional talents paled in presence of the Commander of Jinguo’s Divine Strategy Army.
However, facing him, Cao Jie did not falter in the slightest in momentum.
He sat next to Jiang Wang and continued calmly: "You, Xian Nankui, can call yourself the host of Jinguo, even the host of the Central Region. I, Cao, can’t be bothered to correct you. But this Guanhe Platform is shared by the Human Race. What suppresses Long River is the sacred platform jointly worshiped by the nations. We are not guests, so where do you get off claiming to be the host?"
Jinguo asserts itself as the host here, sorry, we in Qi Country do not acknowledge it.
We from the Various Countries come to the Guanhe Platform to participate in the historically glorious Yellow River Gathering, a grand event to suppress Long River and distribute the benefits of The gate of all demons, not a gathering convened by Jinguo to create an alliance.
If you want to crown yourself as the Alliance Hierarch of the world, you have a long way to go!
As soon as Cao Jie made his statement, he immediately suppressed Xian Nankui’s imposing manner, and on this World Stage, he stood as an equal.
Sitting beside him, Jiang Wang felt a sense of complete confidence. Qiao Lin and the other soldiers of the Sky-covering Army were all standing tall and proud, extremely excited.
Before Xian Nankui could speak, another voice followed: "The places under Heaven cannot be claimed by Jinguo just because they’re nearby, can they? Sheng Country and my Mugu are also very close!"
