In a low voice, the shorter elder spoke, ”Begin!”
The two elders came by to watch the battle for two reasons First, to ensure fairness Secondly, to prevent any fatal injuries It would not be bad if one only suffered minor injuries, but there could not be any deaths on the scene, and no disabilities All the reason why battles like these require sharp eyesight and sublime skills in martial arts

”Sharp eyes, Elder Zhu!” Chu Li held his fists together in respect
”Please be cautious when using it!” the short elder stared at hi Shadow skill ood thing Elder Ho and I did not let our guard down, or else you would have been in deep trouble!”
Chu Li had no choice but to accept the scolding He threw a glance at Zhuo Feiyang
Zhuo Feiyang's face looked pale, his eyes staring at Chu Li with fiery wrath
He did not expect Chu Li's sword movements to be so quick and unpredictable He did not even have an opportunity to unleash his Killer Mace technique This Chu Li, is too sly! Too cunning!
The taller elder patted on Zhuo Feiyang's shoulder, and laughed, ”Little Zhuo, it was not e Shadow skill move This skill o back and improve your skills!”
”Elder Ho, I feel that I can still resu forced a smile
The tall elder glanced at the short elder, then at Chu Li
Chu Li smiled and said, ”Listen to what the elders decide!”
The short elder spoke, ”The winner is clearly decided!”
”Elder Zhu” Zhuo Feiyang could not hold back his nervousness
The tall elder patted on his shoulder again, and gently smiled, ”Don't be nervous, I know you're not content with losing, right?”
”yes” Zhuo Feiyang nodded
The tall elder laughed, ”Actually, losing this battle is alright This will be a lesson for you, one that will save your life in the future You were too impatient and used your full force, it was very reckless, hence your eventual defeat This is just a battle, and if the both of us weren't here, you would have already died!”
”But” Zhuo Feiyang was still unsatisfied, discontented The Blazing Sunder technique that he had so meticulously cultivated was not even used yet It could have multiplied his powers!
Chu Li coughed lightly, and smiled, ”What about this If you want a ree Put on another two hundred thousand taels, and I will gladly accept it!”
”Two hundred thousand taels? Why don't you go rob a bank instead?!” Zhuo Feiyang shouted, his face filled with hatred
Chu Li watched as he raged, but did not change his expression, he continued to smile, ”Then let'sIf I lose, I will give you ten thousand, you lose, the twenty thousand will all be mine, that fair?”
”Fair your head!” Zhuo Feiyang yelled again
Chu Li waved his hand, ”Then that's that We have no choice but to end today's battle”
”Youyousha cursed
Chu Li let out a sigh, shaking his head
Zhuo Feiyang was extreht he was the centre of the universe He did not care about what others feel at all Even with such a big crowd he would still lose his cool
Chu Li sheathed his sword, and gave a fist salute, ”Many thanks, Elder Zhu, and Elder Ho!”
The two shook their heads in reply The tall elder glanced at Zhuo Feiyang sympathetically, then handed the bank notes to Chu Li, ”Little Chu, what a great fortune!”
Chu Li smiled, ”All thanks to you, my elders!”
”You cheeky fellow!” The tall elder laughed and shook his head
The elder felt sorry for Zhuo Feiyang, co was nothing but childish He took things for granted, and looked down on everyone else If he had won, it would not be nothing for hier one in matches But too bad he lost this time, and it had undoubtedly scarred his self-esteem He had lost in martial arts, and in honour too
Chu Li kept the bank notes safely, gave a final fist salute, and left
”Hold on!” Zhuo Feiyang shouted
”Chu Li turned around and looked at hio back and train harder!”
”I will challenge you again!” Zhuo Feiyang yelled aloud, ”Bai Zhijie, go and take the bank notes!”
”yes, Master!” Bai Zhijie replied from afar, and scurried off
Zhuo Feiyang stared at Chu Li, and said coldly, ”It's a deal then, my two hundred taels, and your one hundred taels!”
Chu Li s that I say, I always make sure that I honour the promise Don't you worry!”
