“No, I must have been careless just now. I was careless. Li Yu, let’s fight again!” Ji Qinglan’s soul finally returned to its spot, and he yelled with an unwilling face.

“You still want to compete with me? No problem. Once you enter our Qingyun Sect, I’ll train with you every day until you accept defeat!”

“Hahahaha…” Everyone immediately roared with laughter when they heard that.

The image of Ji Qinglan living in fear of Li Yu surfaced in their minds!

“I…” Ji Qinglan still wanted to say something.

However, he was interrupted by Li Yu again. “Accept your defeat. You’re the mighty Thirteenth Prince of the Xi Liang Dynasty, don’t tell me you don’t even have this bit of integrity!”

“Hmph, I knew that Xi Liang was shameless and dishonest!”

“That’s right. Losing and denying it. Is this Xi Liang’s character?”

“All of us heard it. You promised yourself. Are you going to break your promise now that you’ve lost?!” Everyone’s words were like bolts of lightning that struck Ji Qinglan’s mind.

“Your Highness, don’t worry about them. Let’s go!” Yu Feng grabbed Ji Qinglan and was about to fly away.

She naturally could not allow Ji Qinglan to enter the Great Xia Dynasty’s sect.

Li Yu’s expression turned cold. He was just about to take action when he saw two elders instantly fly in front of Yu Feng and block her and Ji Qinglan’s path.

The powerful aura transformed into a dominating pressure that locked onto Yu Feng and Ji Qinglan.

“How could you leave just like that? You are the ones who issued the challenge, and you are the ones who have put up the arena. Aren’t you taking our Great Xia Dynasty too lightly by leaving after losing?” Elder Cang Shan of the Jade Pure Dao Sect snapped coldly.

“That’s right. I hate people who don’t keep their word the most!” Elder Qing Xuan of the Great Sky Dao Sect gave a cold stare.

They would not tolerate these people from Xi Liang.

Ji Qinglan’s appearance on the Physique Rankings infuriated them.

This was simply a form of invasion as he took away a spot from the Great Xia Dynasty.

How could they not take revenge for this?

Furthermore, Ji Qinglan had a bet with Li Yu in public. Now that he had lost, he attempted to renege on his promise.

If they were really allowed to leave, where would their faces go?

Yu Feng knew they were in the wrong and did not say a word. She unleashed her aura and was about to use force.

However, Ji Qinglan stopped her. “Yu Feng, I’ve lost. I can’t go back on my word. You bring the others and leave!”

“Your Highness!” Yu Feng’s expression blackened. If Ji Qinglan really entered the Qingyun Sect, how could she have the face to return to see His Majesty?

Ji Qinglan ignored Yu Feng and looked at Li Yu instead. “Li Yu, do you dare to promise me that if I defeat you in the future, you’ll allow me to withdraw from the Qingyun Sect!”

“Whatever!” Li Yu smiled.

Defeat me? You probably have no hope in your entire lifetime.

Just be a good little junior brother of mine in the future and contribute more to our sect.

Everyone below was overjoyed. No one expected Ji Qinglan to really become a Qingyun Sect disciple.

“My goodness, this Heavenly Dao Rankings really has foresight. Perhaps it knew in advance that Ji Qinglan would become a part of the Great Xia Dynasty? That’s why he got on the Great Xia Dynasty’s Physique Rankings.”

“Yeah, it seems like the heavens have their own plans!”

“Hahaha, throwing himself into such a bet. Ji Qinglan can be considered the first in history.”

The match between Li Yu and Ji Qinglan ended too quickly, and everyone did not get enough thrill from watching it. Nevertheless, the competition between the elites of the two countries had satisfied their appetite.

On the other hand, seeing how the situation had developed to this point, Zhu Xiaotian’s expression became increasingly ugly.

If Ji Qinglan became a member of the Great Xia Dynasty, wouldn’t he drop another place on the Hidden Dragon Rankings?

Furthermore, once the Divine Weapon Rankings were announced, his spirit sword ranking would drop by another position.

Whereas Qingyun Sect was suddenly about to sweep the top three of the Hidden Dragon Rankings. They might even take first place on the Divine Weapon Rankings.

“It’s gone. It’s over. How could this be!” Zhu Xiaotian felt his head buzzing.

“Your Highness, His Majesty will never let you enter the Qingyun Sect!” Yu Feng warned with a serious face.

Then, she looked at the people of the Great Xia Dynasty and shouted, “You ignorant commoners, do you know what the consequences would be if His Highness really entered the Qingyun Sect? And you, Li Yu, your foolish bet today will bring disaster to the Great Xia Dynasty. Prepare to suffer the wrath of the Xi Liang Dynasty’s emperor!”

“Hehe!” Li Yu was amused.

To hear something that deluded coming from this woman was rather… funny.

“Yu Feng, nothing needs to be said anymore. Don’t you find me embarrassing enough! Go back and tell my father that this is my own decision. And I’ll bear all the consequences of it!” Ji Qinglan asserted resolutely.

Although he was competitive, he also valued honor.

He did not want to become the laughing stock of the world and be despised by everyone.

Yu Feng sighed helplessly, then cupped her hands at Ji Qinglan and did not speak further.

Instead, she left with the remaining young elites of the Xi Liang Dynasty.

“Alright, today’s competition is over. The Hundred Sect Recruitment Assembly shall begin shortly!” The old man in charge of the competition arrived on the stage and declared loudly.

The crowd dispersed reluctantly.

The various large sects returned to their respective recruitment stations to prepare for the upcoming recruitment assembly.

“Junior Brother Ji, let’s go to our sect’s recruitment station to settle the admission procedures. After you complete the procedures, you’ll become a disciple of our Qingyun Sect. As for whether you can become the sect master’s personal disciple in the future, that’ll depend on your performance!” Li Yu patted Ji Qinglan’s shoulder and informed.

“Hahaha, Junior Brother Ji, welcome to the Qingyun Sect’s big family!” Ye Qiu patted Ji Qinglan’s shoulder with a warm smile.

Indeed, they were opponents not long ago, and Ji Qinglan was the enemy’s prince. As long as he entered the Qingyun Sect, they would be brothers. Their past grudges would be written off.

Regardless, Ji Qinglan did not want to speak and only squeezed a smile uglier than crying.

He was worried about his unknown life ahead.

“Elder Nie, what is Li Yu’s cultivation level?” Ji Qinglan contacted the sword immortal’s remnant soul in his mind.

“I can’t tell either. I feel like he doesn’t have any cultivation level, yet he seems unfathomable. He gives me a particular strange feeling! Just like his physique, it’s clearly an ordinary physique, but it makes me feel like it’s the strongest physique in the world! In short, he’s special and strange! Phenomenal, to say the least!”

Elder Nie’s words surprised Ji Qinglan even more.

If Sword Immortal Nie found Li Yu special, Li Yu must be really exceptional!

“But you didn’t lose for nothing. Qinglan, this kid is indeed much stronger than you! After you enter the Qingyun Sect, I’ll observe Li Yu carefully in the future and see what’s going on with him.”

At the moment, Elder Nie was also curious about Li Yu.

He had seen all kinds of strange things in his life, but this was the first time he had seen a freak like Li Yu.

Hearing what Elder Nie said, Ji Qinglan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. No wonder Elder Nie did not react at all when he lost the match.

Li Yu had piqued his curiosity, and he was looking forward to entering the Qingyun Sect.

Regardless, no matter how strong Li Yu was, he had to work harder in his cultivation in the future.

One day, he would defeat Li Yu and leave the Qingyun Sect fair and square.

“Right, Junior Brother Ji, what’s the name of that old sword immortal of yours?” Li Yu suddenly turned to look at Ji Qinglan and asked.

Ji Qinglan’s expression changed drastically, and he was overwhelmed with shock again as he looked at Li Yu. He was stunned.

He even knows about the sword immortal, Elder Nie.

“How… how did you know…”

Ji Qinglan felt that Li Yu’s currently harmless gaze seemed to see through the heavenly secrets and peer through the ages.

As if all his thoughts and ideas were exposed in Li Yu’s eyes, he couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine.
