Capítulo 154: 154. Martial Arts Champion (Second Update)

"Nian Ruxue's" path in the Military Exam drew to a close, amidst hushed gasps and incredulous murmurs.

The Gao Family members rushed onto the Combat Stage, and carried Gao Jiabao down.

The elderly Imperial Physician of the Gao Family urged his grandson to abandon the competition for the top three ranks, pointing out that it was already commendable to achieve the position of Martial Talent. Health was paramount and he must avoid combat until his injuries were entirely healed.

"I can't leave." Gao Jiabao's face was virtually ashen.

Even if he did not have the qualification to continue the fight and wanted to forfeit, he had to stay and watch the remaining finals.

At that point, Duanmu Che was pleading on behalf of Gao Jiabao, "Father, Gao Jiabao has sustained severe injuries. Should he want to forfeit the ensuing battles, could he be allowed to leave for treatment prematurely?"

Duanmu Yi nodded, "If he wishes to forfeit, then he is the Martial Talent."
