C836 (2/2)

Seeing that, Hu Xuan and the rest were also confused.

They were well aware that Tang Huan's goal was the same as theirs, to travel thousands of miles from Wind Howling City to Yan Yang City to become a disciple of the Sword Sect.

”Rejecting the challenge, you are courting death in the 'Pure Yang Sword Sect'!”

Yu Mingjing came back to reality and anger flashed past his eyes. If the other party did not plan to join the ”Pure Yang Sword Sect”, he would be helpless against him.

This Sword-fighting Villa, and even the entire Yan Yang City, forbade private duels.

If he wanted to resolve the dispute, he could go to the 'Life and Death Arena' in the west of the city, or he could go outside the city. However, the other party had even rejected his challenge in the Sword-fighting Villa, so how could he possibly follow him to the ”Life and Death Stage”? Furthermore, he could not keep his eyes on the other party forever, waiting for him to leave the Yan Yang City.

”I just entered the Sword-fighting Villa today, and have not registered to participate in any battle, do you think I need to accept your challenge? You don't even have a clear understanding of my situation and you dare to challenge me? After being in Sword-fighting Villa for so many months and still being so reckless, if it isn't something that's crazy, then what is it? ”

Tang Huan laughed in ridicule.

When Hu Xuan and the others heard this, their faces were filled with joy.

Indeed, the booklet had mentioned that after the battle, challenges within the rules were not allowed to be refused. Because after entering the battle, he was the sword faction's Preparatory Disciple. Of course, this Preparatory Disciple was only a verbal title. Before he became an official disciple, he had no rights whatsoever.

However, there was no indication in the book as to whether or not he would accept the challenge before entering the war. It was clear that he could accept the challenge as he wished, or refuse it as he wished.

Hu Xuan and the rest relaxed their expressions, just now, when they were in a rush, they did not expect this.

”You …”

Yu Mingjing was obviously very surprised as well. After being stunned for a short while, her fair face flushed red from embarrassment and she said coldly, ”Brat, I do not believe that you will not participate in the Sword-fighting Villa's battle! I would like to see how you will still reject my challenge after you enter the battle. ”

The strange looks from his surroundings made Yu Mingjing feel as if he was on tenterhooks. After finishing his sentence in embarrassment, he turned around and left.

However, just as he took two steps forward, a voice stopped him in his tracks. ”Since you want to challenge me so much, wouldn't it be too heartless if I didn't fulfill your wish?”

”Huh?”

Yu Mingjing sneered and turned around, wanting to retort, but before the voice could even shoot out from his throat, it turned into a low shout of surprise. In his line of sight, the guy who wanted to teach him a lesson was actually walking towards the small round stage on the left of the stage.

On the stage, Jiao Tianlei and Fu Junwei's fight had already started, but the majority of the cultivators on the side had all turned to look at Tang Huan.

Seeing Tang Huan's actions, not only was Hu Xuan and the rest puzzled, everyone was also surprised.

He had even returned Yu Mingjing's challenge earlier, but from the meaning of his words, it seemed that he was going to accept Yu Mingjing's challenge. Furthermore, the direction that he was heading towards now, was obviously towards the referee stand in this stage. According to the rules, all the cultivators who had just entered the Sword-fighting Villa and were preparing to participate in the battle, could sign up at any of the referee stand to receive a ”Challenge Brand” and a jade token that represented their status as preparatory disciples.

Sure enough, under the gazes of many people, Tang Huan walked onto the referee stand.

Not long later, Tang Huan walked down, and leisurely walked back to his original spot. He smiled and said, ”Now, you can pass your 'Challenge Brand' to me.”

Yu Mingjing's face was unsettled.

In the past, he had given the Challenge Brand to Tang Huan with a superior attitude, occupying the initiative. But now, it was Tang Huan who asked him to hand the Challenge Brand over. If he really gave away the Challenge Brand as Tang Huan had said, then he would have lost a bit in terms of momentum.

However, if they did not gift the Challenge Brand s and missed this opportunity to teach the other party a lesson, they would definitely be mocked by the others.
