1089 A Match of Mystical Beasts! (1/2)

”Bear Saint King, you are not going to break your promise, are you?” After several failed attempts, Qin Ruogu played the emotional cards once again.

”No,” The black bear snorted. ”I always keep my promise, but I'm soon going to completely fulfill the promise.”

Qin Ruogu's eyes widened in an instant as he said incredulously, ”What! You...”

The black bear laughed and suddenly leaped into the air. With a dash, he was on the stands belonging to Beast Trainer Sect in the next moment. Using both of his huge paws, he repeatedly pounded his own chest and roared, ”I'm about to take my human form! ROARRRR!”

The people of Beast Trainer Sect turned deathly pale when they heard the thunderous announcement.

'When you achieve the ability to take human form, that will be the time you can regain your freedom,' was the promise made to the black bear by the founding sect leader of Beast Trainer Sect, and also the black bear's promise to the sect.

From the day the black bear took his human form, he would no longer have anything to do with Beast Trainer Sect.

Had the day finally arrived?

...

After losing three matches in a row, it was official that Beast Trainer Sect was no longer the sixth-ranked sect with a lower-class Celestial Luck Banner. All its people were dejected as if their spines were suddenly taken away by someone, turning them into the walking dead.

The thousands of years of glory had been destroyed, becoming the stepping stone for someone else.

At this point, the leader of the fifth-ranked Blue Heaven Sect, Yu Changtai, thundered, ”If I may ask, Sect Leader Yun, will you stop now or continue the challenge?”

This was the first time he had spoken, and the purpose of his question was to understand Yun Yang's end goal. If Yun Yang and the others from Residence of Nine Supremes were satisfied with their current rank, then there was no need to fight the remaining matches. However, if they insisted on continuing the challenge, it meant that they were actually targeting higher ranking sects!

Yun Yang smiled. ”Of course, we will continue the challenge! So far, there has not been a sect or individual who could defeat the Residence of Nine Supremes in any of the matches. Therefore, we will not stop advancing. Otherwise, we will just be looking down on ourselves.”

”What do you say, Sect Leader Qin?” asked Yu Changtai. ”Are you going to give up the remaining two matches and admit defeat, or...”

His words were full of suggestions.

Eyes shot with blood, Qin Ruogu bellowed, ”We will fight the fourth match! If Residence of Nine Supremes thinks it can defeat Beast Trainer Sect with a complete victory, it better prepare for a tough fight!”

Yun Yang stared at him with a mocking grin. ”Sect Leader Qin, your decision is rather...harmful to others and lacking benefits for yourself.”

Qin Ruogu snorted, his face livid.

As Yun Yang had said, Qin Ruogu's decision was indeed harmful to others and without benefits for himself.

Beast Trainer Sect had lost three matches in a row. According to the rules of best of five matches, its defeat was a foregone conclusion. Even if it won the fourth match, it would not return to its original position. The decision served only one purpose: to stop Residence of Nine Supremes from advancing further.

But in any case, Qin Ruogu had to fight this match.

Yun Yang had poached the black bear in front of him and destroyed Beast Trainer Sect's strongest trump card. He could not just swallow this insult and do nothing.

”You had a secret conversation with Bear Saint King just now and used a dirty trick to defeat me without a fight! It's true that I've lost according to the rules, but in the hearts of all the people of Beast Trainer Sect, we never lost this match!”

Qin Ruogu said in a loud voice, ”If you win the fourth match, we will give up the fifth match. In our hearts, the fourth match is the final match that will decide the outcome and not the third match! Beast Trainer Sect will defeat Residence of Nine Supremes in a match with true strength!”

Many people of Beast Trainer Sect nodded when they heard that.

That was right!
