"I … … I admit defeat … …"
Huang Yao wanted to leave, but his legs wouldn't stop moving.
"Why did you admit defeat?"
Elder Rende asked the question that everyone wanted to know.
That's right.
Why?
Huang Yao didn't want to answer this question.
"Have you thought it through? If you admit defeat, it means that he will replace you as the chief disciple. "
"He didn't even fight, why did he admit defeat?"
Venerable Snowfly was also confused.
There was no need to fight.
He didn't dare to fight.
He knew that if he fought, not only would he lose his position as the chief disciple, but he would also lose face. He would rather admit defeat and give up his position as the chief disciple than be kicked half to death by Gu Qingfeng in front of so many people!
Huang Yao walked down from the platform and admitted defeat, giving up his position as the chief disciple.
This was a result that no one had expected.
They couldn't understand it either.
Could it be that Huang Yao had fought with Gu Qingfeng before? And he had lost?
Even so, this was a competition for the chief disciple position, shouldn't he at least try?
Why didn't he even have the courage to fight?
Was this Gu Qingfeng really that powerful?
No one knew.
No one knew.
Even Féquy was the same. He raised his head and looked at Huang Yao leaving, then looked at Gu Qingfeng. Without thinking much, he walked up the platform and said to the elders, "Elder Rende, since Huang Yao has admitted defeat, according to the rules, Gu Qingfeng should be promoted as the chief disciple of the twelve academies."
That's right.
According to the rules, if the chief disciple admitted defeat, the challenger would replace him.
However, rules were rules. On the platform, many people didn't like Gu Qingfeng, so they naturally didn't want him to become the chief disciple of the twelve academies.
Venerable Guangyuan also stood up and objected, "Huang Yao admitting defeat is too abnormal, it doesn't make sense."
Li Ziheng also agreed, "This matter is too strange. Before we figure it out, we can't let him be promoted."
Venerable Snowfly also stood up and said indifferently, "Huang Yao admitted defeat. It might be because his spirit energy suddenly mutated, so he's not suitable for fighting."
"If you admit defeat, just admit defeat. Why do you need so many reasons?" Féquy retorted, "If there is a reason for the chief disciple to admit defeat, then who would participate in the chief disciple competition in the future? If they meet a disciple they can't beat, they can just say that there is a problem with their spiritual energy. That way, they can avoid losing the chief disciple position. Elders, if that's the case, what rules are there to speak of?"
"Huang Yao's strength is outstanding. If there is no special reason, why would he admit defeat?"
On the high platform, Enlightened Master Guangyuan, Li Ziheng, and Reverend Snowfly were all against Gu Qingfeng becoming the leader of the Twelve Astral-12 Academies. Even though Féquy tried to refute them, it was useless, as they were not the only ones who were against it. The other elders also seemed to be against it.
"This is indeed a little strange." Elder Mu De said doubtfully, "If he were to be promoted directly, I'm afraid that he would not be able to convince everyone."
"This …"
Elder Rende was also hesitating.
Féquy was about to say something, but he was stopped by Gu Qingfeng. He looked at Reverend Snowfly, Immortal Guangyuan, Li Ziheng, and the others on the high platform and said with a disdainful smile, "What do you mean by strange? Unreasonable? Sudden change of spiritual energy? You are just finding fault with me because you don't like me. Why are you talking about these things? "
"How dare you!"
Immortal Guangyuan stood up and shouted.
"How dare you be disrespectful to us, little disciple!"
Reverend Snowfly also shouted.
"Gu Qingfeng, our Yunxia School has always been fair and just, but this matter …"
Elder Rende wanted to say something, but Gu Qingfeng was not interested in listening. "Well, let's not talk about these useless things. I just want to ask, can I be promoted if the other party admits defeat?"
"I …"
"I just want to know if you can or can't."
"I …"
Rende opened his mouth again, but he was interrupted by Gu Qingfeng again, "Answer me directly, yes or no!"
"How dare you! What kind of attitude is this? "
Seeing Gu Qingfeng talking to Elder Rende so arrogantly, the others all angrily rebuked him.
"My attitude is already very polite."
Gu Qingfeng sneered. If it weren't for Huo De reminding him to follow the rules before he left, he wouldn't have bothered to waste his breath on these people.
Elder Rende's expression was also not good. He replied, "I don't know the reason why Huang Yao admitted defeat for the time being. If you are promoted, I'm afraid the others won't be convinced. We will make a decision after the investigation is done."
Gu Qingfeng said in a deep voice, "There's no need to investigate. Let me tell you, the reason why Huang Yao admitted defeat is because I have fought with him before. He knows he is no match for me, so he naturally admitted defeat."
"You said Huang Yao is no match for you? What a joke! "Daoist Flying Snow questioned," Huang Yao is in the 6th layer of Foundation Establishment … "
Just as Daoist Flying Snow was speaking, Gu Qingfeng interrupted him. He turned to look below the stage and shouted, "Huang Yao, is what I said the truth?"
Huang Yao below the stage was startled, and his expression became even more panicked.
Gu Qingfeng didn't have a good temper. Participating in this chief disciple competition was already troublesome enough, but he didn't expect to meet a few people who were even more troublesome. Now, his patience was gradually running out.
Seeing that Huang Yao was silent below the stage, Gu Qingfeng suddenly shouted, "Speak!"
The power of this one word scared Huang Yao so much that he fell to the ground and replied with a trembling voice, "Yes … yes … what he said is the truth. I … I am no match for him … I admit defeat …"
Seeing this scene, Elder Rende, Elder Mude, Guangyuan, Flying Snow, Li Ziheng and the others were all shocked.
"How is it? Did you all hear it clearly? "
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng seemed to be very different from when he first appeared.
When he first arrived, his expression was calm, and there was even a spring breeze-like smile on his face.
Now, his expression was still very calm, but there was no spring breeze-like smile on his face. There was only impatience.
"Li Ziheng, is there anything strange about him admitting defeat?"
"Daoist Guangyuan, is there anything strange about him admitting defeat?"
"Daoist Flying Snow, did he admit defeat because of some spiritual energy mutation?"
"Elder Rende, did you hear the reason?"
Gu Qingfeng looked around and questioned them one by one. Everyone was speechless and did not know how to respond.
Daoist Flying Snow snorted and said with disdain, "Huang Yao lost to you previously, but that was only because he lost previously. How can it be counted?"
"Good! Since the previous loss did not count, then I will let you see who will count today. "
Gu Qingfeng glanced over and pointed at Li Qiandong and Mu Zibai. He shouted in a deep voice, "If I remember correctly, the two of you are also the first seat. Come on stage! I will give you one more chance! "
Mu Zibai and Li Qiandong's expressions changed drastically, and they looked extremely panicked.
Li Qiandong was no longer as cold as before.
As for Mu Zibai, he was no longer as elegant as before.
There was only panic, and there was also fear.
This scene was a little strange, extremely strange.
It was understandable that Huang Yao was afraid, but why was Li Qiandong and Mu Zibai scared as well?
He was the leader of the twelve chief disciples!
He was at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, with a colorful foundation, and had cultivated all six sword techniques to seventy-nine perfection.
How could he be afraid?
"Get up here!"
Gu Qingfeng shouted angrily, and with a bang, Li Qiandong and Mu Zibai both fell to the ground in fear.
"I … I admit defeat …"
"I … I also admit defeat …"
Whoosh!
A stone stirred up a thousand ripples. On the high platform, Rende, Mu De, Flying Snow, Guangyuan, and all the other elders stood up and looked at this scene in disbelief.
