Just as everyone was looking at Chen Changxing and Xu Wenliang expectantly, waiting for a victor to emerge between the two, Chen Changxing, who was inscribing the talisman formation, suddenly stopped inscribing the talisman formation. He casually dispersed the half-inscribed talisman formation and laid on the ground with his face facing the sky. He panted and shouted, "I lost!"
Hearing Chen Changxing admit defeat, the audience was stunned. They didn't understand why Chen Changxing would suddenly give up inscribing the talisman formation and admit defeat while Xu Wenliang was still bound by the Gold Trap Talisman Formation.
Could it be that his injuries were too severe and he couldn't inscribe the talisman formation completely?
Just as the audience was puzzled, commentator Wawa suddenly sighed and said, "What a pity. Although the Gold Trap Talisman Formation bound Xu Wenliang's legs and made him unable to move for a short period of time, it didn't bind Xu Wenliang's hands. If I'm not wrong, Xu Wenliang's palms are clasped together. He should have successfully condensed the gray blade in his palms. Chen Changxing must have noticed this and admitted defeat."
"You're right. Putting the palms together is the signature condensing action of the gray blade. Moreover, we can also see that Xu Wenliang didn't struggle from the beginning to the end. The gray blade has an extremely long attack range, and Chen Changxing and Xu Wenliang are only 20 meters apart. With the gray blade's speed, it can kill Chen Changxing in the blink of an eye."
"If Xu Wenliang used other methods to intimidate Chen Changxing, Chen Changxing might not admit defeat. However, the gray blade … its lethality is too strong. In Chen Changxing's current state, if he were to be penetrated by the gray blade, his life would be in great danger!"
"A wise man submits to circumstances. Although Chen Changxing lost, I think he must have left an extremely deep impression on the audience!"
After hearing the commentator's explanation, some of the confused audience subconsciously looked at Xu Wenliang's hands. Sure enough, Xu Wenliang put his palms together at this time, and the gap between his palms was aimed at Chen Changxing. Xu Wenliang had once activated the Gray Blade when facing the Affiliated University of the Mysterious Sky Sect, and defeated the enemy with one move. It was almost exactly the same as the current action. At this time, Xu Wenliang condensed the Gray Blade but did not release it. Obviously, he was giving Chen Changxing a chance to take the initiative to admit defeat. Chen Changxing was also very tactful and did not act shamelessly like Ceng Shulan.
Xu Wenliang slowly walked in front of Chen Changxing and said in a low voice, "Thanks for letting me win."
Chen Changxing raised his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He smiled at Xu Wenliang and said, "I know you can condense the gray blade, but you clearly took three seconds to condense the gray blade last time. This time, you condensed it almost instantly. It seems that I was fooled. You didn't use your full strength last time."
"Last time, I was only fighting in my normal form, but this time, I'm releasing my complete form. My spiritual energy is much stronger and more active than last time, so the speed of condensing the gray blade will naturally be faster."
"So that's how it is. I've learned a lot."
Chen Changxing felt helpless. He had originally wanted to use a simple Rank 1 Glyph Array to harass Xu Wenliang and not give Xu Wenliang a chance to attack him from a distance. However, he had underestimated Xu Wenliang. In other words, he had collected too little information, and his understanding of Xu Wenliang was too one-sided.
At this moment, medical personnel had already stepped onto the stage and lifted Chen Changxing onto a stretcher. Chen Changxing said to the medical personnel, "These are just some minor injuries. I won't die for the time being, so there's no need for immediate treatment. Please inject me with a healing medicine. I want to watch the match from below the stage. I don't want to miss any exciting details."
The medical personnel naturally had no objections to this. As an early Foundation Establishment cultivator, these injuries would affect Chen Changxing's strength. However, since he had already lost, there was no need for him to continue fighting. It was no big deal for him to delay the treatment for a while.
In this way, the medical personnel brought Chen Changxing to the Blackmoon Combat Academy. After injecting Chen Changxing with a healing medicine, they left.
Lying on the stretcher, Chen Changxing looked at Qinchuan and grinned. "Boss, I didn't embarrass you, did I?"
Qinchuan smiled and nodded. "You exceeded my expectations. Your performance was really not bad."
Qinchuan indeed didn't expect Chen Changxing to be able to almost defeat Xu Wenliang after defeating Ceng Shulan. Although he lost in the end, Chen Changxing had already proven that his strength wasn't weaker than anyone else's. At least in terms of brains, Chen Changxing was definitely strong.
"It's my turn next."
Bluepool was slightly agitated. Chen Changxing had defeated an opponent. If he couldn't defeat Xu Wenliang, wouldn't he be defeated by Chen Changxing?
Qinchuan reached out and patted Bluepool's shoulder gently. "Don't feel pressured. Just do your best. I'm still here."
Bluepool nodded. Taking a deep breath, he walked towards the arena.
"Bluepool will be going up next from the Blackmoon Combat Academy. I don't know much about him because this contestant has only gone up once before, and he lost very quickly."
"Indeed. From Bluepool's performance back then, we can tell that although he has some capabilities, he's clearly lacking in battle experience and can be easily restrained. After Chen Changxing's spectacular performance, I wonder if this Bluepool will be able to surprise us again."
In the arena, Xu Wenliang looked at Bluepool, who was slowly walking over. His expression was one of relief. If Qinchuan went up now, he would definitely lose. However, against Bluepool, he was confident that he could win another match. This way, he would definitely have to face Qinchuan in the next match. Even if he couldn't get anything out of Qinchuan, he could at least exhaust some of Qinchuan's strength and lay a good foundation for Yu Cai 'er and Wang Wenxue.
"Bluepool from the Blackmoon Combat Academy. Please enlighten me."
Bluepool looked at Xu Wenliang with a serious expression. He knew that many people were looking at him at this moment. His family, his friends, everyone was looking forward to his performance. Therefore, he had to show his elegance. Even if he lost, he had to lose beautifully!
"Stardragon's First Academy, Xu Wenliang. Please enlighten me."
Xu Wenliang pursed his lips and replied solemnly.
"New Student Competition's third match. Stardragon's First Academy's Xu Wenliang versus Blackmoon Combat Academy's Bluepool. The match begins now!"
Toot toot toot!
As the whistle sounded, Xu Wenliang once again released his complete form and jumped into the air. Like a meteorite falling from the sky, he brazenly charged towards Bluepool!
At this moment, Bluepool didn't dodge. Instead, he used a talisman pen and started to inscribe a talisman array on the spot!
Seeing this, many people felt anxious for Bluepool. How could Xu Wenliang give him a chance to succeed in inscribing a talisman array without putting some distance between them?
