Chapter 268: Chapter 218: Master Yan, We Believe in You!

The sky will be held up by the tall ones when it falls.

The affairs of the cult are for the court and the government office to worry about.

Yan Chuan just needs to focus on the Jian Province Competition.

Today is the tenth day of March, and the competition has reached the fourth round, which is the group stage.

In the fourth round, twenty teams are randomly divided into four groups, with five teams in each group playing a round-robin tournament. The winner earns 2 points, a draw earns 1 point, and the loser earns 0 points. The top two teams in each group advance to the Top Eight.

Early this morning, the draw for the groups took place.

...

"Group A!"

Tu Tiannan returned with the draw results, his expression slightly complicated.

Wei Jiang asked, "Wang Zhengyi? Liu Qifeng? Fu Yunzhan? Or Yan Chuan?"

With their strength, after the Zhou Family Sisters were severely injured and eliminated, only these four could exert such pressure on Tu Tiannan.

Everyone looked at Tu Tiannan.

Sure enough.

"It’s Yan Chuan."

Tu Tiannan sighed.

"Finally, we meet him!"

Yuan Hao’s eyebrow twitched, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.

The Guangling Academy’s team of Tu Tiannan—

Tu Tiannan practices ’Witch Fist’, tutored by one of the former Ten Elders, Wu Qi.

Wei Jiang practices ’Wind Fire Fist’, tutored by one of the former Ten Elders, Wen Wu.

Yuan Hao practices ’Yellow Dragon Fist’, and his father is Yuan Shicai, also one of the former Ten Elders.

But Wu Qi!

And Wen Wu!

And Yuan Shicai!

The first was ’shot to death’ by Yan Chuan in front of everyone. The other two disappeared shortly after the Martial Arts Competition, alive or dead, they were not found. Rumor has it that they were killed by Yan Chuan.

Thus!

This ’Jian Province Competition’, Tu Tiannan, Wei Jiang, Yuan Hao formed a team and, before coming to Yingze County, most wanted to meet Yan Chuan in the ring.

They hadn’t had the chance in the first three rounds.

However, after the first three rounds, Yan Chuan repeatedly demonstrated his extraordinary skills in the competition, his prestige continuously rising, showing increasingly strong power, to the point where Tu Tiannan and the others’ ambitious spirit was gradually eroded away, until nothing was left.

"Yan Chuan!"

"As long as we continue to fight, we’ll face him sooner or later!"

"Can’t avoid it."

Wei Jiang sighed and said to Tu Tiannan and Yuan Hao, "But I’ll say this first, the rumors linking Wen Wu’s disappearance to Yan Chuan, I consulted Elder Gu, who proved them to be nonsense. So, I have no enmity with Yan Chuan, and in the ring, it’s only about winning or losing."

"Coward!"

Yuan Hao cursed immediately.

Before the ’Jian Province Competition’ started, Wei Jiang had just broken his limit, he didn’t say this then. At that time, he spoke bravely about forming an ’Avenger’s Team’ with the others to ’accidentally’ kill Yan Chuan during the ’Jian Province Competition’ to avenge his master’s death!

Wei Jiang was the loudest that day.

But now!

With Yan Chuan’s fame at its peak, when they finally met him in the fourth round, Wei Jiang was the quickest to back down.

"Brother Yuan, the rumors say Wen Wu and Elder Yuan coveted the ’Red Tassel Spear’ in Yan Chuan’s hand and were counter-killed by Yan Chuan when trying to snatch it."

"But that’s unreliable!"

"Elder Wen is my mentor, I know him the best, he would never do such a thing, he would never forcibly take someone else’s treasure."

"The part about being ’counter-killed by Yan Chuan’ is even more unlikely."

Wei Jiang gave Yuan Hao a sidelong glance, "Do you think your father is the kind of petty thief who would steal treasures?"

"How dare you!"

Yuan Hao was furious, raising his hand to hit.

"Enough!"

Tu Tiannan pushed Yuan Hao away, growing impatient, scolding, "Save your strength for Yan Chuan, quarreling among ourselves, what kind of ability is that?"

"Who do you think you are?"

"We’ve all broken our limits, only you, Tu Tiannan, are so arrogant?"

Yuan Hao hated being yelled at, and especially despised Tu Tiannan’s condescending, lecturing attitude.

Wei Jiang also didn’t indulge Tu Tiannan: "Do you really think breaking your limit allows you to contend with Yan Chuan? Yan Chuan is now the leader of the ’Jian Province Four Masters’, known as the ’Heavenly Master’! And who are you, Tu Tiannan?"

After mocking Tu Tiannan, he also remembered Yuan Hao: "You’re no better, not even worthy to lace Yan Chuan’s shoes!"

Bam!

Before Wei Jiang finished speaking, Yuan Hao couldn’t hold back any longer and raised his hand to strike.

"I said enough!"

Tu Tiannan shouted sternly, stepping forward to stop them, thinking he had high prestige, but in reality, it was nothing; the two ignored his words completely, even turning their attack on him when he stepped in.

"Enough!"

Originally wrestling with Wei Jiang, Yuan Hao reversed their aim to hit Tu Tiannan together.

Bam bam bam!

Punches and kicks flew!

Chaos ensued!

No one held back, and the situation escalated quickly.

"This this this!"

Among the team, ’General’s Hammer’ Chu Yan and ’Wensheng Fist’ Yang Wei, the two remaining members, looked at each other in shock and innocence, finding it all absurd.

The group stage had just begun!

And they’re starting a fight amongst themselves?

It’s outrageous!

...

"Outrageous!"

Yan Chuan, upon hearing the news, also thought it was ridiculous: "Wei Jiang and Yuan Hao were dissatisfied with the draw and teamed up to beat Tu Tiannan, resulting in mutual destruction and leaving all three incapacitated?"

This this this!

Is this really happening?

"Hahaha!"

"They were under too much pressure being grouped with you."

Shao Yancong laughed heartily; when he first heard the news, he found it ridiculous too. After confirming it multiple times and even personally visiting the Guangling Academy Preparation Zone, he actually saw Tu Tiannan, Wei Jiang, and Yuan Hao being carried off on stretchers, bloodied and severely injured.

This amused Shao Yancong greatly: "Now in your group A, there are only two real teams left that can compete."

Originally, in group A, there were five teams—

The Tu Tiannan team lost three members before the matches, and could not make an impact.

Coincidentally, the Zhou Family Sisters were also drawn into this group, and of these five sisters, two are still lying unconscious, while the remaining three are either injured or disabled, lacking combat strength for the moment, making the draw and grouping a mere formality.
