Chapter 689: Chapter 689_1

On the Jiangdong side, Su Chengyu had already discerned Jiangnan’s tactical plans early in the day. Su Chengyu directly chose to compete in the first round. As soon as the referee announced the initial competitors for both sides, Yin Huan’s face changed immediately.

"Damn it! They actually sent Su Chengyu in the first round." Yin Huan complained angrily.

In that case, their second seed on this side had become cannon fodder, which would significantly impact their subsequent arrangement of the troops.

As soon as Su Chengyu made a move, it was naturally no surprise that Jiangnan’s second seed was defeated with one blow. Su Chengyu harbored no grievances against this person, so he was somewhat lenient in his strike, simply knocking him off the ring, resulting in only minor injuries.

"Brother Yin, don’t be anxious. Even if Qin Siyuan decides to play his trump card from the beginning, it doesn’t necessarily lead to a victory. Upon Zhang Yingjie’s entry into the ring, Jiangdong’s side will surely be unable to resist either." Xu Jianglong attempted to comfort him.

Yin Huan promptly dispatched his three weakest players to compete. The first Dragon Soul Si from Jiangdong quickly scored four points. Su Chengyu withdrew, and Yin Huan, eager to counter, sent his first seed, Zhang Yingjie, into the ring.

Seeing this, Qin Siyuan chuckled. Everything that had occurred so far was within Su Chengyu’s anticipation. Hence, he also dispatched his weakest four contestants, allowing Jiangnan’s Dragon Soul Si to make up four points.

Both sides had each dispatched five people, leaving five players who hadn’t competed yet. Every upcoming match was critical. Yin Huan sent his third seed player to play, while on the Jiangdong side, Qin Siyuan dispatched his favorite disciple, Qiu Ji.

By now, Qiu Ji’s strength had advanced to the summit of Fifth Grade Great Grandmasters. Su Chengyu had already probed the abilities of the third seed of Jiangnan’s Dragon Soul Si with his Divine Sense. He was also a Fifth Grade Great Grandmaster.

Although both of them were pretty much evenly matched, Qiu Ji, after all, was Qin Siyuan’s disciple and had personally been taught by Qin Siyuan. He was also considered excellent among the combatants of the same ranking. After more than fifty exchanges, Qiu Ji defeated the opponent, securing another point for Jiangdong’s Dragon Soul Si.

With the defeat of the third-seed contestant, Yin Huan’s face turned even darker. He was aware that he had lost the dominant position, and the end was predictable.

Jiangnan’s Dragon Soul Si’s second seed was a Seventh Grade Grandmaster. If he hadn’t been defeated by Su Chengyu in the first round and was unable to score even a single point, the Jiangnan Dragon Soul Si would typically have a good chance of winning.

The final competition results, of course, held no suspense. Jiangdong emerged victoriously, and Jiangnan was defeated, condemned to be the fourth seat in this Dragon Soul Conference and missing the chance to be in the top three.

"Brother Yin conceded. Our victory was purely fortuitous. I thank him for his magnanimity," Qin Siyuan said, standing up and saluting.

Yin Huan grew even more disgruntled upon hearing these sarcastic words from Qin Siyuan. He felt extremely wronged by the defeat and was dissatisfied with it. The Jiangnan Dragon Soul Si lost because of their tactics. Missing that one move meant a foregone failure.

"Humph! Wait and see in the next session." Yin Huan huffed coldly, his face gloomy.

"In the next Dragon Soul Conference, I’m afraid you won’t be there to witness it. Your official hat may not last until the next conference. How the victory or defeat would be in the next session is not your concern." Qin Siyuan smirked.

"You!"

Furious and disgruntled, Yin Huan could not get rid of his anger. Su Chengyu nonchalantly said, "Yin Huan, is your face sore? Who was it that was bragging about ’slapping the face’ earlier?"

Yin Huan wanted him dead. Su Chengyu would naturally not leave him any face. If not at this moment, then when?

"Su Cheng! You’re ruthless!" Yin Huan’s face turned pale, grinding his teeth, wishing he could bore holes into Su Chengyu with his eyes.

"Your failure is not because the Jiangnan Dragon Soul Si lacks strength, but because you are too stupid! I saw through your plan completely; that’s why I made my move in the first round. When your second seed fell, your defeat was inevitable. As a person so foolish as to keep calculating against me, you dared to use a knife against me. But your scheme failed, leading to punishment instead, not even able to secure the Grand Airspace Officer’s official hat. Tell me, isn’t your stupidity at its extreme?"

The dignified Grand Airspace Officer from the Jiangnan Dragon Soul Si, Yin Huan was being made fun of and mocked publicly by Su Chengyu. Completely losing his reputation and face, Yin Huan couldn’t take it anymore and showed a fiercely murderous intent.

"Su Cheng, are you asking for death? Don’t think that because the Grand Minister favors you, you can be so reckless! Are you aware of the iron law of the Dragon Soul Si? As a basic Si such as yourself, you dare to disrespect me so openly. The severe crime of insubordination, even if I were to kill you, it would be justified!"

Yin Huan was furious beyond control and had murderous intentions.

"Grand Airspace Officer, calm your anger. You have already been punished; you can’t afford to further upset the Grand Minister. This kid is currently under the Grand Minister’s spotlight. He is deliberately provoking you to make a mistake. Don’t fall for it!" Xu Jianglong hastily tried to pacify him.

"You want to attack me? I can give you that opportunity. Wait till the Dragon Soul Conference is over. We can have a duel to the death. Let the Grand Minister bear witness. Each man forges his destiny, to save you from appearing so unwilling to accept defeat," Su Chengyu said.

Yin Huan was originally about to leave, but hearing these words from Su Chengyu, he instantly halted, turned around, and squinted his eyes at Su Chengyu, saying, "You truly believe I’m afraid of you, that I dare not make a move against you?"

"Su Cheng, don’t be impulsive. Yin Huan is a first-rank Martial King. You’re not his match."

Like Xu Jianglong, Qin Siyuan also didn’t expect Su Chengyu to propose a death duel with Yin Huan. He thought Su Chengyu was merely verbally humiliating Yin Huan to make a scene; he didn’t expect Su Chengyu to be serious about it.

"If you’re not afraid, then let’s agree to it in front of everyone. After the Dragon Soul Conference ends, we shall have a battle," Su Chengyu said.

"Fine! This is you asking for it. Since you’re tired of living and want to seek death, I’ll kindly fulfill your wish."

Yin Huan also agreed. After all, under the public eye, and with the conversation having reached this point, if he weren’t to consent, he would appear even more disgraced.

For cultivators, face often matters more than life itself. Moreover, Yin Huan had never put Su Chengyu in his eyes; he was, after all, a real Martial King. Would he fear a novice?

"Then let’s consider it a deal."

After finishing his sentence, Su Chengyu left the Martial Arts Field. Qin Siyuan hurriedly left with his team. He needed to understand what Su Chengyu was planning. Competing with Yin Huan was indeed a suicidal act.

Qin Siyuan mused that Su Chengyu, having gained the Grand Minister’s favor, had possibly become too inflated and arrogant. If it truly got to a death duel, the Grand Minister wouldn’t be able to intervene or obstruct it.

The news of Su Chengyu and Yin Huan’s scheduled duel after the Dragon Soul Conference quickly spread throughout the department, which sparked heated discussions once again. Now Su Chengyu truly became the most noteworthy person in this Dragon Soul Conference.

Of course, more than a few people shared Qin Siyuan’s sentiments; this was plainly a suicidal act that stemmed from overconfidence.

After the martial arts field competition ended, He Lian Xuan left, and therefore did not witness Su Chengyu and Yin Huan’s agreement firsthand. When the news spread, a subordinate immediately reported this event to him.

He Lian Xuan furrowed his brows, saying, "That Su Cheng, has he lost his mind?"
