"Hey, I’m telling you, can’t you wait until the competition is over to be sad? It’s not over yet! It’s five-on-five, and we’ve only lost four people."
"That’s right. Don’t we still have my family’s Tang Yi?"
"So what if the first four lost? We have Brother Yi bringing up the rear. It’s a guaranteed win, so don’t worry."
"Go, Brother Yi! Give those bastards from Wind Rain City a brutal lesson!"
"Tang Yi, it’s time for you to show your true skills!"
Most of the audience was silent and dejected, but a small portion of people were still full of confidence about the competition.
These people were the members of the Tang Family.
They had tremendous faith in Tang Yi. So what if they had lost four members? For them, having one Tang Yi was enough!
This competition would definitely be a victory for their Fengyue City.
To the members of the Tang Family, the examinees from Wind Rain City were certainly formidable, but Tang Yi was even more so!
Moreover, they weren’t even on the same level.
They remembered that when he faced Tang Mingtian, Tang Yi had won using only two fingers!
Who could possibly compare to that kind of strength?
Who would dare claim they could defeat Tang Mingtian with just two fingers?
No one dared!
"Even Fan Wei lost. What difference will it make if Tang Yi goes up?"
"I admit Tang Yi is no longer a Big Waste, and I’ll even admit he’s quite strong now. But I think his strength is only on par with Fan Wei’s, and he might even be a little weaker. Since even Fan Wei lost, how could he possibly beat that Fang Tian? Besides, after Fang Tian, Wind Rain City still has four more people."
"The most infuriating part is that Fang Tian is supposedly the weakest of the five people Wind Rain City sent out. If their weakest member can beat four of our people, what can Tang Yi possibly do?"
"Just give it up. I don’t want to experience that despair all over again."
"I’m so angry, and it feels so unfair! When will this competition finally be over? Just end this misery quickly."
Compared to the vast population of Fengyue City, the number of Tang Family members was far too small. The confident words they had just spoken were immediately drowned out by the despair and pessimism of the Fengyue City crowd. Not only did their words fail to offer any encouragement, but they actually made everyone feel even more dejected, wishing for a quicker end to this shameful competition.
"Just you wait. My Brother Yi is about to unleash his power. Don’t be too shocked when it happens."
Seeing the audience still wallowing in pessimism, a Tang Family disciple retorted indignantly.
But still, no one paid him any attention.
This made the Tang Family disciple furious.
He had told them how powerful Tang Yi was, yet no one believed him.
’Fine, then they can just wait and see.’
"Clan Leader Tang, among the five examinees sent out by our Fengyue City, only your Tang Yi remains. What are your thoughts on this competition?"
On the high platform, the Mu Family Patriarch looked at Tang Haotian and asked, his expression somewhat strange.
Although the Mu Family Patriarch knew in his heart that with even Fan Wei’s defeat, Fengyue City no longer had any hope of victory against Wind Rain City, he felt completely bewildered. He was puzzled by Tang Haotian’s calm and composed expression, and the look of immense gratification he wore whenever he glanced at Tang Yi.
’Could it be that Tang Haotian thinks Tang Yi can defeat Fang Tian?’
Before, when everyone was calling Tang Yi a waste, Tang Haotian had acted the same way. In the end, it was proven that Tang Yi was not a waste and even possessed considerable strength.
Now, everyone was saying Tang Yi was no match for Fang Tian, yet Tang Haotian was acting this way again?
’Could it be...’
Hearing the Mu Family Patriarch’s question, the others turned to look at Tang Haotian as well, wanting to see how he would respond.
Tang Haotian simply smiled and gave a concise reply: "My Yi’Er will win."
This answer stunned everyone present.
"Clan Leader Tang, what do you mean by ’will win’? Do you mean he’ll win against Fang Tian, or..." the Mu Family Patriarch asked again.
"Of course, I mean he’ll win the entire competition. Otherwise, what’s the point of just beating Fang Tian?" Tang Haotian glanced at the Mu Family Patriarch as if to say, ’Isn’t that a stupid question?’
"Er..." The Mu Family Patriarch was taken aback. He gave Tang Haotian a strange look, then fell silent, lost in thought.
"Clan Leader Tang, it’s good to have confidence in Tang Yi, but if you’re too arrogant, you may find yourself in an unrecoverable situation," the Su Family Patriarch chimed in sarcastically from the side, having overheard Tang Haotian’s arrogant words.
"We’re all supposed to be united on Fengyue City’s side, but to be blunt, even my Fan Wei lost. Is your Tang Yi really better than my Fan Wei? And you think he can win the whole competition? Could you not embarrass the rest of us?" the Fan Family Patriarch also said, displeased.
"It seems the Tang Family has become unbearably arrogant. Even if Tang Yi manages to beat Fang Tian by wearing him down, what then? From what I know, Fang Tian is the weakest of the candidates Wind Rain City has sent. Even if he beats Fang Tian, what will he use to win the following matches? ’Win the entire competition’... I really..." the Yuan Family Patriarch said irritably.
"Then let’s wait and see," Tang Haotian said, not bothering to argue with them. He simply turned his gaze back to the arena, to the proud, upright figure standing there, his face filled with a gratified smile.
「On the other side.」
"Junior Brother Wang, it looks like you’re going to lose this bet."
Xiao Bai smiled. He originally thought they would need Bai Ye to step in, but now it seemed one Fang Tian was enough.
The examinees from Fengyue City were just too weak. He had gone to so much trouble preparing for this bet, only to win this easily.
"I don’t think so. Don’t we still have one person who hasn’t gone up? I think he can help me win this bet," Wang Zongyao said calmly, not at all nervous about having lost four matches.
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai gave Wang Zongyao a slightly puzzled look, not understanding why he was still so calm at this point.
’Is it just because of that last examinee?’
’According to the order of appearance from weakest to strongest, that last examinee should be Fengyue City’s strongest this year?’
Xiao Bai thought that, based on the few people Fengyue City had sent up so far, this final contestant couldn’t be that much stronger. Yet, Wang Zongyao was so confident. It was truly baffling.
However, driven by his curiosity, Xiao Bai also turned his head to look toward Fengyue City’s final examinee. He wanted to see just what kind of talent this last contestant was to have given Wang Zongyao such immense confidence.
He might have been better off not looking. The moment he did, he was stunned.
"N-No... impossible!"
Xiao Bai was incredibly shocked. He actually couldn’t See Through this examinee’s Level!
Xiao Bai was a Four-star Battle King, even stronger than Wang Zongyao. He could see the Level of every other examinee in the entire venue, but he couldn’t see the Level of this last, un-entered contestant from Fengyue City!
’What on earth is going on?’
"Junior Brother Wang, what’s this examinee’s name?" Xiao Bai asked Wang Zongyao, but his eyes remained fixed on Tang Yi, as if trying to See Through him completely.
"Him? His name is Tang Yi," Wang Zongyao replied with a smile. Then, ignoring Xiao Bai’s shocked expression, he took a step forward and called out in Tang Yi’s direction, "Tang Yi, it’s your turn to get in the ring."
