Chapter 936

Immediately after, he used another set of combination punches, which made a steady sound when they hit Ni Chuang.

"You are not allowed to insult my master!" Ni Chuang was angered by Hu Tianqi and roared as he rushed toward him.

"Not good!" Xu Tian stood up from his seat.

Ni Chuang had been provoked and lost his reason; there was only one ending if he continued to fight.

Just the moment he stood up, Hu Tianqi kicked Ni Chuang in the head with a side kick, knocking him to the ground, and then raised his foot to stomp hard on his arm, grinding with force.

"Tsk tsk... trash is trash; even if you are sent back to the furnace to be remade, you are still useless!" Hu Tianqi looked down from above, staring at Ni Chuang, who was unable to resist due to pain and dizziness, and sneered. "Just by relying on you, you also want to beat me?"

"Hu Tianqi wins!" The winner was decided, and the host old man raised his hand to announce.

Ni Chuang's eyes dimmed, and he turned to look at Old Su under the stage, speaking with shame.

"Master, sorry..."

"Go heal your wounds quickly!" Old Su immediately ordered the rescue personnel to go over.

The rescue personnel waiting on the side carried the injured Ni Chuang away.

"Elder Gong's disciple is still more powerful..."

"That's right, among Old Su's current disciples, Ni Chuang is considered powerful. If he can't beat Hu Tianqi, the others will be even worse."

The high-level officials in the villa whispered.

"No wonder Elder Gong has had the upper hand these past few years; the aptitude of the disciples under Old Su is too poor."

The gossip reached Old Su's ears, making his face look even uglier.

However, he was too lazy to argue with those high-level officials and simply pretended he hadn't heard anything at all.

In the subsequent matches, Xu Tian participated in thirty-two matches without a single loss, directly advancing to the next round of the tournament.

After the first round of matches ended, a total of eight people remained, including seven special-tier hunters and one Xu Tian.

"A fourth-tier hunter can also enter the contention battle?"

"And it's a thirty-two match winning streak; it's truly a level that no one would believe even if told!"

"Senior Brother Yun Hexian only won thirty-four matches back then; it's truly too heaven-defying!"

"He's just lucky. After all, the strongest person he fought was only first-tier; he didn't encounter any experts at all during the preliminary stage."

"Heh, what's there to be proud of? Many experts didn't sign up for this martial arts tournament, and some went out to execute missions and couldn't rush back, such as the class of Senior Sister Ming..."

"... only one participated, and the rest didn't show up. Otherwise, what qualifications would he have to enter the final contention battle?"

"That's true. No matter how powerful he is, he's just a newcomer; how could he beat those special-tier hunters..."

"Number One, Hu Xiaofeng; Number Six, Xu Tian, get on stage!"

The host old man called Xu Tian's name again.

The students who were just excitedly discussing Xu Tian's good luck all closed their mouths tightly, and their eyes looking at Xu Tian also carried a bit more sympathy.

Encountering Hu Xiaofeng in the first round of the contention battle, this kid's good luck must have been used up in the first round of matches.

Hu Xiaofeng stood up expressionlessly and walked toward the arena unhurriedly.

"Junior Brother, go easy; if you beat someone to death, Old Su will come to fight my master to the death again." Hu Tianqi, who also successfully advanced, said with a half-smile.

"I will be careful." Hu Xiaofeng nodded slightly at Hu Tianqi, then continued to walk toward the stage.

At this time, Xu Tian had already gotten on the arena. Hearing the conversation between Hu Xiaofeng and Hu Tianqi, his gaze fell on Hu Tianqi's smug face, and a bit of coldness grew in his sharp eyes.

"Sir, please wait a moment!"

After he withdrew his gaze, he raised his hand to signal the host old man.

Everyone under the stage was stunned, thinking to themselves: is this kid self-aware that he can't beat Hu Xiaofeng, so he decided to forfeit to avoid getting hurt?

In fact, this was also very normal. Xu Tian was only fourth-tier after all; facing a special-tier hunter, and still Elder Gong's top student Hu Xiaofeng, it was very normal to admit defeat and forfeit.

Elder Gong was originally Old Su's arch-rival, so his disciple naturally wouldn't show mercy to Xu Tian.

If he were seriously injured because of this match and delayed his mission and promotion, that would be a loss that outweighed the gain.

Old Su, sitting in the VIP seating area, breathed a sigh of relief and also cast an approving look at Xu Tian.

This kid has a future; he knows when to retreat in the face of difficulties, much better than those reckless fools who only know how to be heroes.

Xu Tian had only just entered Xuanwu Tang family's mountain villa and had already achieved a great result of top eight in the martial arts tournament; this was a rare gem in the entire villa, so it was time to quit while he was ahead.

Even if Xu Tian learned his Descending Cloud Bagua Palm, it was almost impossible to beat Hu Xiaofeng.

Forfeiting now was the best choice.

Hu Xiaofeng also looked at Xu Tian upon hearing this. If Xu Tian wanted to forfeit, he couldn't drag him...

... and force him to fight a match.

It seems this kid really has a bit of cleverness compared to Old Su's other disciples, knowing how to protect himself.

The Thorn Emperor sitting beside Gong Changming was still as cold as an immortal; facing the sudden situation, she didn't even frown.

It was just that from beginning to end, her gaze never left Xu Tian.

"Xu Tian, what is the matter?" The host old man asked in a formulaic tone.

"I think sparring like this is too much of a waste of time." Xu Tian said.

Waste of time?

Suddenly, there was an uproar under the stage.

Everyone stared at Xu Tian inexplicably, completely unable to understand what he wanted to do.

"Probably just unwilling to get off the stage ignominiously, so he's throwing harsh words at his opponent."

Someone in the crowd speculated.

"No matter what, he is the first fourth-tier hunter to enter the top eight; just this honor alone is enough for him to brag about for a year."

"It's normal for a newcomer to be arrogant, but I think he's really smart. Instead of being beaten and crippled by Hu Xiaofeng and losing all face, it's better to quit while ahead."

"This result for a newcomer is not bad, and I heard he is still Old Su's outer-court disciple. If he performs well later, it's possible for him to be promoted to an official disciple by exception."

Although they heard Xu Tian's words, most people thought Xu Tian wanted to put on a show before surrendering.

"What are you doing?" The old man frowned deeply, his tone also a bit stern.

"I want to challenge two people at once." Xu Tian looked under the stage, raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Hu Tianqi. "And him."

"On the arena, don't make such jokes!" The old man stared at Xu Tian in shock, suppressing his anger. "You want to fight Hu Xiaofeng and Hu Tianqi at the same time?"

"That's right." Xu Tian nodded confidently.

His words were like a drop of boiling water falling into a frying pan, instantly igniting the entire scene.

Old Su slapped the back of his chair hard. This disciple looks smart, so why is he acting so stupid?

No, this isn't even stupid; it's crazy!

"What did that kid say?"

"Did I hear wrong?"

"What kind of stimulation did this kid receive to go crazy?"

"What is he thinking, actually wanting to fight Hu Xiaofeng and Hu Tianqi at the same time? One against two?"

"Truly unheard of! Since the establishment of Xuanwu Tang family's mountain villa, no one has ever boasted like this, right?"
