Chapter 115: Kneel Before Me (2/2)

But just when I was hoping for the best-case scenario... well, everything played out just as I expected it to. Without further ado, Xiao Xue undid his integration with his Ice Wolf Spirit Beasts and cupped his hands towards the Evolved Fanged Ice Wolf. Since he had already fully integrated with his Ice Wolf, I'm guessing that he felt the fear in his spirit beast, causing him to lose heart.

”I concede. This is my defeat.” Xiao Xue said, walking out of the stage.

”Hmph, you made the right decision.” My Evolved Fanged Ice Wolf said as it returned to my side. ”You know, Yongrui, I like that kid. He knows how to back down from an unwinnable fight. If he had done the opposite, however, I would've given him a merciful death.”

”Yeah, thanks a lot for that. You didn't have to scare them that much though. You're already in the apex when it comes to spirit beasts, after all.” I sighed. Good thing this fight didn't end in a massacre.

”Yong Rui, I was overstepping my boundaries. I should've recognized your strength before I challenged you into a fight. And for that, I hope you will accept my apology for underestimating you.” Xiao Xue cupped his hands.

”Why are you apologizing? It was a good fight. If it weren't for my Spirit Beast, I would have lost.” I casually admitted.

”I hope I could challenge you into another match in the near future, Yong Rui.” Xiao Xue waved his hand before rejoining the audience.

”Sure, whenever you challenge me, I will gladly accept it if I'm not preoccupied. You bet I will.” I continued.

Since my fight was over, the other participants who were in the middle of their qualifying match continued fighting. The audience went silent for a few seconds as well, making me wonder if I did something wrong.

Then I realized that what I did was something out of the ordinary.

”No way! That's a spirit beast?!”

”It's more powerful than a Titanium-rank Spirit Beast! No, that can't be a beast.”

”He's so handsoooome!”

”I told you he came from a rich family. I wonder which clan it is.”

”We should befriend him.”

”Hey, with your looks, you can totally make him fall for you. Why don't you take a chance?”

”Is he really just in the King Realm?”

I sighed as I returned to my seat. There was nothing I could say to Liu Zhi and the others since I revealed another one of my trump cards. It was just one and I've already received weird reactions from the masses. What more if I revealed my Dark Element or Blood Element? They might curse me to my grave.

Still, this much attention takes getting used to.
