Chapter 673 (2/2)

Xiang Shaoyun clenched his fists before the look in his eyes turned lax. He said, ”For this battle, I concede.”

His words stunned Xiao Xie, and the observers reacted similarly. They all believed that Xiang Shaoyun could contend with Xiao Xie with his nine stars, but why was he suddenly conceding?

Before any of them could react, Xiang Shaoyun turned and left. Everyone stared at Xiang Shaoyun's departing figure in a daze.

Xiao Xie was unwilling to accept the surrender. He chased after Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”Why did you concede? I refuse to believe that was your limit.”

He could sense the dense power within Xiang Shaoyun. Hence, his opponent should still be capable of combat. The admission of defeat gave him an impression that Xiang Shaoyun was still holding back, and it displeased him.

”A defeat is a defeat. Do you think I enjoy defeat?” Xiang Shaoyun said.

This was the very first defeat he had suffered among his peers. In terms of pure battle prowess, he had indeed been defeated. Without a way to continually use all nine of his powers, he wouldn't be able to maintain his combat prowess for long. And that made it hard for him to contend against these freaks.

It made him realize the imperfections of his path. More improvements were required.

Xiao Xie was left speechless. Geniuses like them were all arrogant individuals. None would easily admit defeat.

With Xiang Shaoyun admitting defeat before so many people, Xiao Xie had no reason to keep bothering him. Thus, he could only watch as Xiang Shaoyun left for the teleportation formation.

That kid is still hiding his trump cards, Xiao Xie thought to himself with an incomparable certainty.

He was supposed to be happy due to his victory, but he couldn't bring himself to feel any sort of joy. His entire mind was filled with the sight of Xiang Shaoyun being chased by the dark bats before they all mysteriously vanished. How had Xiang Shaoyun been defeated without even using an ability that powerful?

”No, I need to fight him again. But I'll wait until he catches up with me in terms of cultivation level,” decided Xiao Xie. As for the other disciples, a huge commotion had arisen.

”Xiang Shaoyun has conceded! Is nine powers a joke?”

”The h.e.l.l do you know? Xiang Shaoyun is only a second-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator. Xiao Xie is at least a fifth-stage. The gap between them is too big. For him to have such a close fight, the defeat was glorious.”

”That's right. If Xiang Shaoyun's cultivation level was a stage or two higher, this battle would probably have a different result. Moreover, Xiang Shaoyun is a few years younger than Xiao Xie. His potential is practically boundless.”

”Looks like the Di Alliance is going to be in trouble. They had provoked the Overlord Legion, and now, their overlord has returned. I wonder if that Young Master Di from the Di Alliance can suppress Xiang Shaoyun.”

”With this battle, Xiang Shaoyun is already qualified to enter the top 20 of the Dragon Phoenix List.”
