Chapitre 287: Internal Strife

After hearing Yang Qing's reply, Xiao Budian was taken aback. After a split second, he gave Yang Qing's back a hard smack, "there's no such thing as admitting defeat before the start of a match!"

"He isn't my opponent" came the reply

"Since we're all from the same sect, there's no point in carrying on with the match if we'd all known that I'd lose"

Lin Feng's gaze turned to Yang Qing, "Without really competing, who'd know the outcome? Even if you know that you are weaker, the least I expect is the courage to fight".

"Besides, there're always lessons to learn from defeat"

"Sorry master, I was ignorant" said Yang Qing as he turned to face Yue Hongyan. "Senior, it's my honour".

"Please" replied Yue Hongyan.

The duo walked into the ring abreast.

From behind, Xiao Budian suddenly shouted, "Fifth senior! Fight well! You can admit defeat if you really cannot handle her!"
