Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1227: Chapter 1227: Forfeit

On the Martial Arts Arena, flames soared to the sky.

A sea of fire completely engulfed Xiao Yi.

Outside the fire sea, Nangong Yan had a smug smile on his face, the Flame Sword in his hand was already extremely solid, its sharpness overwhelming.

”Damn.” In the spectator seating, the Fang Family Master looked slightly displeased.

”I forgot, Nangong Yan’s Martial Soul is the Fire Rain Sword.”

”The Fire Rain Sword is originally a treasure of the Nangong Family, ranked as a Mid-grade Holy Artifact.”

”Nangong Yan fully exerted the power of the Mid-grade Holy Artifact, the power of this sword is enough to instantly kill a Martial Arts Emperor.”

Fang Muxue’s face showed shock, ”He fully mobilized the power of a Mid-grade Holy Artifact? How is that possible?”

”Isn’t it said that even ordinary Martial Arts Emperors can’t fully mobilize the power of Mid-grade Holy Artifacts?”

”Nangong Yan is only at the Saint King Realm Eighth Layer, how can he achieve this.”

The Fang Family Master’s face gradually turned cold, ”It’s Qin Family’s Unrivaled Saint Technique again.”

”Nangong Yan started building the sword momentum from the beginning; when he erupted, the flames and sword momentum had already risen several levels, the power is overwhelming.”

”Moreover, Nangong Yan naturally has the Fire Rain Sword Martial Soul, the Martial Soul complementary to the sword itself, thus he can easily mobilize the power of the Fire Rain Sword.”

”Hence, his instantaneous eruption, fully exerting the power of the Fire Rain Sword.”

”One sword strike, power astonishing the heavens.”

With the strength of the Fang Family Master, he noticed this anomaly with a glance.

”Xiao Yi shouldn’t have used Nangong Yan for practice.” The Fang Family Master shook his head, ”If not, Nangong Yan wouldn’t have had a chance to build sufficient sword momentum.”

”Simply put, Young Master Xiao Yi was too arrogant.” The maid said.

”Then...” Fang Muxue showed concern, ”Let’s rescue Young Master Xiao Yi first.”

The Fang Family Master shook his head, with a solemn gaze, he looked at the Martial Arts Arena.

”As long as the referee hasn’t declared victory or defeat, no one can intervene in the Four Corners Tournament.”

”This...” Fang Muxue’s face turned pale.

On the Martial Arts Arena, the sea of fire continued to burn incessantly.

Nangong Yan stood with his hands behind his back, unhurried and smug.

At the Chief’s Office, several Fang Family referees frowned saying, ”The winner has already been determined, it can be announced.”

”Mm.” Several Guu Family referees also nodded.

”No.” Three Qin Family referees shook their heads repeatedly, ”Nangong Yan hasn’t dissipated the fire sea yet, the attack hasn’t ended, the battle can still continue.”

Elders from the Fang and Guu Families frowned saying, ”Although the attack hasn’t ended, the victory is obvious, our duty as referees is to judge the victory.”

”But you can’t determine it now.” On the Martial Arts Arena, Nangong Yan sneered.

”The fire sea hasn’t dissipated, who knows what the situation inside is?”

”If Xiao Yi still has strength and you forcibly stop the match, will you bear the consequences?”

”This...” The referees hesitated.

”Hmph.” Nangong Yan snorted coldly and looked back into the fire sea.

”Xiao Yi, I not only want you seriously injured, but I also want you burned to ashes in the fire sea.”

”Do you wish to end the fight quickly so you can be treated? Hmph, wishful thinking.”

”The flames won’t disappear until you turn to ashes.”

Nangong Yan thought secretly, his eyes full of malicious intent.

In the spectator seating, Fang Muxue’s face was pale, filled with urgency, ”Father, if we don’t stop the match, Young Master Xiao Yi...”

The Fang Family Master frowned upon hearing this.

If they don’t save him now, when the fire sea ends, the person inside might be burned to ashes.

”Alright.” The Fang Family Master nodded, ”However, if we intervene in the match now, our Fang Family will be disqualified from competing.”

”Forget it, let’s see how the Guu Family handles it afterward.”

”Family Head.” Beside him, several Fang Family elders’ expressions changed, ”This Four Corners Tournament is to decide which of the three families will be chosen as the next City Lord.”

”If the Guu Family is defeated by the Qin Family, the consequences...”

The Fang Family Master frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head, ”Oh well, it’s better than having a bitter argument with that disobedient kid when he comes back later.”

As he said this, the Fang Family Master stood up.

Just as he was about to intervene.

At that moment, a cold voice slowly echoed from the fire sea on the Martial Arts Arena.

A proud figure gradually emerged.

”The sword is good, but the flames are too weak.”

Xiao Yi slowly walked out, unexpectedly unharmed.

”Disperse.” Xiao Yi shouted softly, slashing a sword.

Blood surged from the sword, and the surrounding fire sea collapsed instantly.

”Young Master Xiao Yi.” In the spectator seating, Fang Muxue’s face showed joy.

”Xiao Yi, you...” On the Martial Arts Arena, Nangong Yan was shocked.

”Unrivaled Sword Fire.” Nangong Yan instinctively grasped the Fire Rain Sword in his hand and shouted.

Whoosh... Xiao Yi’s figure instantly vanished from his original spot.

Before Nangong Yan could gather fire, a sharp sword tip was already at his throat.

”Such slow speed.” Xiao Yi shook his head.

”Get down.”

Clang...

The Cold Flame Sword’s blade slapped, causing Nangong Yan to spit out a mouthful of blood and then be blasted off the Martial Arts Arena.

”Now, can you announce the victory?” Xiao Yi coldly looked at the three Qin Family referees in the Chief’s Office.

Their faces were extremely unpleasant.

Fang and Guu Family referees smiled, ”Naturally, Nangong Yan has been blasted off the stage, the victory is decided.”

”Winner, Xiao Yi.”

At the Eight Palaces Spectator Seating, eight Vice Hall Masters nodded, ”Truly deserving of General Deputy Xiao Yi, no, Vice Hall Master.”

Surrounding discussions were fervent.

”This Xiao Yi really lives up to his reputation.”

”If he had gone all out from the beginning, Nangong Yan wouldn’t have been able to withstand even a single move.”

”It’s said he came from Black Cloud Academy. The academy’s reputation might be poor, but the monsters inside are truly terrifying.”

Discussion was rife.

Standing on the Martial Arts Arena, Xiao Yi awaited challengers.

After ten minutes, no one stepped up.

Xiao Yi had no choice but to flash away, leaping off the Martial Arts Arena to return to the spectator seating.

”Xiao Yixiao.” The Fang Family Master looked at Xiao Yi and smiled bitterly, ”You really know how to scare people.”

”Heh.” Xiao Yi faintly smiled.

”But it’s understandable.” The Fang Family Master said with a smile, ”Someone who can stand strong against those powerful evil cultivators in Tianling Forest couldn’t possibly be defeated by a young brat like Nangong Yan.”

”Muxue was just too impatient just now, even I was anxious.”

Xiao Yi glanced at Fang Muxue, seeing her face full of relief and joy, he subtly withdrew his gaze.

Xiao Yi expelled a breath and slowly sat down, remaining silent.

The Fang Family Master smiled without minding it and said, ”Next, other factions’ martial artists will take the stage for competition.”

Xiao Yi nodded.

But just then, voices were heard from the Martial Arts Arena.

”South Water City, Cao Family, forfeits.”

”Coldrain City, Zheng Family, forfeits.”

”Nangong City, Nangong Family, forfeits.”

”...”

One by one, family martial artists, heavenly talents, leaped onto the Martial Arts Arena and immediately leaped off, all forfeiting.
