Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes.
The reason he wanted to fight for first place in the Clan Martial Meet was for the generous rewards.
Now, Patriarch Li Ao wanted him to admit defeat and even promised to compensate him with an equivalent reward …
Logically speaking.
Since Li Ao had already said this, he had to give Li Ao some face no matter what.
But.
Now that he was standing on the combat arena, looking down on him and looking down on him, the youth in white really made him unhappy.
He could imagine how proud Li Ao would be if he admitted defeat.
On the high platform.
Li Ao frowned. Seeing that Duan Lingtian was unmoved, he took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind about something.
"Duan Lingtian, besides compensating you for being first place, I will also give you a promise. In the future, I will unconditionally promise you something that is within my ability and is reasonable. How about it?"
Li Ao took the last step.
Li Ao's voice entered Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be moved.
Patriarch Li Ao's promise …
That was something that couldn't be bought with money!
He didn't expect that Patriarch Li Ao would make such a concession in order to let Li Qing obtain first place in the Clan Martial Meet.
Of course, he could guess the reason why Li Ao did this.
The Li Clan's annual Clan Martial Meet had always been the most important.
If the first place in the Clan Martial Meet was obtained by a disciple with another surname, it would inevitably become a topic of ridicule …
The Li Clan couldn't afford to lose face like this!
No matter what, Li Ao was still the Patriarch of the Li Clan.
If Duan Lingtian still wanted to continue staying in the Li Clan, no matter what, he had to give Li Ao some face.
In addition, Li Ao had already made such a concession.
If he still wasn't willing, then it wouldn't be justifiable.
"I admit defeat!"
Under the gazes of the crowd, Duan Lingtian spoke calmly and then retreated to the side of the three girls.
To him, his goal this time was to obtain the three hundred and fifty year old Blood Lingzhi.
Now that he had obtained the Blood Lingzhi, it could be considered a success.
As for the title of first place, he didn't really care.
Admit defeat?
The people who were looking forward to the battle between Duan Lingtian and Li Qing were completely stunned.
Duan Lingtian admitted defeat?
This …
Ever since Duan Lingtian had appeared, he had been a dark horse, dominating everything without fear.
And now, he actually admitted defeat.
This contrast was unbearable for most of the people present.
On the combat ring.
Hearing Duan Lingtian admit defeat, Li Qing was also stunned for a moment.
"To think that I even thought of him as an opponent. Now, it seems that he is simply not worthy of being my opponent."
Li Qing looked at the purple-clothed youth who was surrounded by the three women in the distance. The disdain in his eyes deepened, and there was a faint trace of jealousy.
Below the combat arena, it was clamorous.
"Duan Lingtian actually admitted defeat. What a surprise!"
"I was wrong about him. I didn't think that he didn't even have the courage to fight Li Qing."
"To think that he even possesses the strength of three ancient mammoths. He's really impressive but useless."
"There's still a difference between the Core Formation Stage and the Body Tempering Stage in the end."
"Li Qing is worthy of being the number one disciple of our Li family's younger generation. His reputation is well-deserved!"
…
The discussions in the crowd were one-sided.
Even those people who thought highly of Duan Lingtian before had now turned around and belittled Duan Lingtian to their heart's content while praising Li Qing.
"Duan Lingtian, why did you admit defeat?"
Li Shishi's beautiful brows knit together. She found it difficult to understand Duan Lingtian's decision.
She even felt that the current Duan Lingtian was so unfamiliar …
The Duan Lingtian she knew, the Duan Lingtian she liked, wasn't the type of person that fled at the last minute.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Lingtian's image in her heart plummeted.
"If I want to admit defeat, then so be it."
Duan Lingtian said casually.
"You!"
Li Shishi was exasperated. She stomped her feet and angrily walked away.
"Don't you find it strange?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes and looked at the other two girls that hadn't spoken since the beginning.
"Young master must have his reasons for doing this."
Kerr said with a slight smile.
"You've received a lot of benefits from the patriarch …"
Li Fei looked deeply at Duan Lingtian.
"You … how did you know?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned. He looked at this enchanting and beautiful girl with slight surprise.
The girl smiled mysteriously.
"Feifei!"
Unknowingly, Li Qing had once again come to Li Fei's side. His burning gaze fell on Li Fei.
Li Fei didn't pay attention to him.
"Feifei, this branch family disciple who doesn't even have the courage to fight with me isn't worthy of you."
Li Qing took a deep breath. His tone was filled with disdain.
Duan Lingtian's eyes turned cold.
"Li Qing, whether he's worthy of me or not, it has nothing to do with you … but I know that I will never choose you. So, you should give up on this idea as soon as possible. Don't bother me in the future. "
Li Fei looked at Li Qing with disgust.
"Let's go over there."
Li Fei called out to Duan Lingtian and Kerr.
Duan Lingtian nodded. Before he left, he didn't forget to look at Li Qing and smile.
His smile caused Li Qing's face to darken. Killing intent shot out from his eyes …
Duan Lingtian!
The killing intent in Li Qing's eyes was naturally detected by Duan Lingtian.
Only, Li Qing's killing intent, in his view, could only be considered as a child playing house.
This Li Qing, he estimated that he hadn't even killed anyone before.
Within his killing intent, there wasn't the slightest smell of blood.
Following the battle between Duan Lingtian and Li Qing, Duan Lingtian admitted defeat. The Li Clan's Clan Martial Meet was nearing its end.
The final results were out.
The top ten of this year's Clan Martial Meet were:
First, Li Qing, 86 points.
Second, Duan Lingtian, 84 points.
Third, Li An, 82 points.
Fourth, Li Fei, 80 points.
Fifth, Li Zhong, 78 points.
Sixth, Li Hu, 76 points.
Seventh, Li Kuang, 74 points.
Eighth, Li Shishi, 72 points.
Ninth, Kerr, 70 points.
Tenth, Li Won, 68 points.
In the battle between Kerr and Li Shishi, Kerr didn't go on stage and directly admitted defeat.
In her eyes, Li Shishi was her good friend. She didn't want to fight her …
Next, the Li Clan's Patriarch, Li Ao, would personally give out the rewards.
When they returned home.
Duan Lingtian's group was still three people, but Li Shishi wasn't among them.
Li Fei replaced Li Shishi.
Inner Court Martial Arts Practice Field.
Li Qing stood there, emitting a terrifying aura.
He gazed from afar at Li Fei and the violet-clothed youth talking and laughing as they walked away side by side …
"Li Qing, how about we join forces and find a chance to teach that Duan Lingtian a lesson?"
Unknowingly, Li An had arrived by Li Qing's side and made a suggestion.
"Humph!"
Li Qing coldly glanced at Li An with a face full of disdain.
"Li An, you're the same as him. Both of you have lost to me … Do you think I'd join forces with you, a loser, to deal with another loser?"
Li Qing's nose was raised higher than the sky as he spoke to Li An in a condescending tone.
"Since you're not interested, then forget it."
Li An laughed awkwardly before turning around and leaving.
At the instant he turned around, his expression became extremely unsightly, and his eyes flickered with a breathtaking cold light.
Duan Lingtian's group of three had just entered the house.
Swish! Swish!
Two little pythons, one black and one white, flashed straight towards Duan Lingtian and Kerr and coiled around their wrists.
Then, they stuck out their little heads and sized up the peerlessly beautiful young girl with an enchanting figure, and their eyes were filled with curiosity …
"These are … Snakes that you raised?"
Li Fei was slightly surprised when she saw this scene.
"So cute."
Under Duan Lingtian's slightly stunned gaze, Li Fei stretched out her hand to stroke the little black snake that coiled around his wrist.
The little black snake closed its eyes in enjoyment.
After a short moment, the little black snake's figure flashed and actually coiled around Li Fei's wrist.
"Perverted snake!"
Duan Lingtian looked at the little black snake with a gaze filled with jealousy.
"Tian 'er, Kerr, this is?"
At this time, Li Rou also walked out of the room, and her gaze was completely attracted by Li Fei.
Li Fei was really too outstanding.
In terms of appearance, she wasn't the slightest bit inferior to Kerr.
Moreover, because of her age, the 18 year old Li Fei had already completely displayed the charm of a woman.
"Mother, this is your future daughter-in-law."
Duan Lingtian chuckled.
"Hello Aunt Rou, I'm Li Fei."
Unhappily glaring at Duan Lingtian, Li Fei smiled and greeted Li Rou.
"Good, good. You guys have a good chat, I'll go prepare dinner. "
Li Rou's face bloomed with a smile as she entered the kitchen.
"Madam, I'll help you."
Kerr also followed in.
"Little Fei 'er, you still haven't told me, how did you know that I purposely admitted defeat after receiving benefits from the Patriarch?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes stared closely at Li Fei.
"Why should I tell you?"
Li Fei rolled her eyes at him.
"You are my future daughter-in-law, why are you asking so many questions."
Duan Lingtian chuckled.
"Pei! You're shameless, who's your daughter-in-law. "
Li Fei simply ignored Duan Lingtian, and stretched out her jade hands, gently teasing the two little pythons.
The little pythons were not afraid of strangers at all, and played happily in Li Fei's hands.
As a former playboy soldier, Duan Lingtian could naturally see that ever since he saved Li Fei on the battle arena, Li Fei's attitude towards him was completely different.
If it was in the past, Li Fei would have already been angry if he was so frivolous.
He believed.
As long as he put in a little more effort, he would definitely be able to completely conquer this peerless beauty in front of him …
Not long after, someone came to visit.
They brought a long box.
Duan Lingtian opened it, and smiled with satisfaction.
He did not expect that the Patriarch Li Ao's efficiency was so high, and delivered the thing so quickly.
"This is … three hundred and fifty years old Blood Lingzhi Mushroom?"
Li Fei recognized the Blood Lingzhi Mushroom lying in the box, and was stunned for a while, before looking at Duan Lingtian in disbelief.
"Didn't you guess it?"
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"The reward you received this time is more than Li Qing, Li Qing only received a reward for ranking first, but you received two rewards for ranking first and top three at the same time."
Li Fei looked at Duan Lingtian enviously.
"How is it, me being your man, I won't embarrass you right?"
Duan Lingtian chuckled, and his fiery gaze fell on Li Fei's towering peaks, and his lower abdomen slightly heated up.
"Where are you looking at?"
Li Fei frowned, and her enchanting face blushed, all the way to her neck.
"You're so beautiful."
Duan Lingtian's breathing became hurried, and he took a deep breath to calm his restless emotions.
"Really?"
"Even pearls are not so real."
"Didn't you say that I should go on a diet?"
"I lied to you."
