Chapter 252 Shady Scene   "Oh?" That Hua Meng of the Blazing Fire Sect had the same expression as the others, and he couldn't understand what was going on.

Hua Mengqi said, "We haven't fought yet, why did you admit defeat?"

Liu Cheng shook his head, "There's no need to fight. I don't recognize myself as your opponent."

After saying that, Liu Cheng hurriedly left the arena.

Even the referee beside him was confused, but he could only announce, "In the tenth division, the first group, Hua Meng won this battle."

"Liu Cheng, what the hell are you doing!" Xiang Nan asked angrily as soon as Liu Cheng came down.

However, Liu Cheng only lowered his head and did not speak.

"Team Xiang Nan, the second contestant is invited." The referee announced.

"I'll do it!" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and was about to walk towards the open space.

But at this time, Huang Tian hurriedly grabbed Xiang Nan's arm and said, "Let me compete in this battle."

"No!" Xiang Nan frowned, "We've already lost one match. We can't lose any more!"

"Since there is no end to the stalemate … let's just raise our hands and vote." Huang Tian also changed his normal state. He had said it well yesterday, but now it was going to be a show of hands.

"Those who support me, please raise your hand." As Huang Tian spoke, he raised his right hand, followed by Liu Cheng, Hong Chengzhi, and Yue Xiao'e.

According to the rules of the competition, the winner of the poll may enter the competition.

Under Xiang Nan's incredulous gaze, Huang Tian walked up to the empty space and bowed to Hua Meng, "I admit defeat."

After saying that, Huang Tian retreated back.

"What the hell is this?" Hua Meng cursed loudly, "Are you playing daddy? What kind of tricks are you guys playing?"

"Holy shit!" The audience was filled with curses.

One of the spectators couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stood up and scolded, "I'll fuck your ancestors. What's wrong with Xiang Nan? Did he dig up your ancestral graves, or did he sleep with your daughter-in-law? There's no need to target him like this."

"Yesterday it was like this, and today it is like this. If you don't want to compete properly, then fuck off! You'll be embarrassed here!"

This was too unruly. This was the grand twelve-sect joint exam, the first of its kind!

Even if you want to target someone and secretly do something shady, you should still cover it up a bit, right? But now, had he already reached such a blatant level?

Xiang Nan was the lead in the first 12 joint examinations, which directly led to the shocking scandal of the joint examinations.

Yesterday, it was only the Haoran Sect targeting Xiang Nan, but now, even the other outer sects are targeting Xiang Nan?

Amidst the curses of countless spectators, Liu Cheng and the others just stood there without saying a word.

Xiang Nan is not stupid. He has already sneered, "Say, what benefits did Hong Bin give you?"

"Xiang Nan, I'm sorry!" Liu Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "At the beginning, I really wanted to help you, but …"

"Is it worth it?" Xiang Nan asked, "Don't forget, we belong to the same team. Even if we are eliminated, the five of us will be eliminated together. If you do this, you will harm me. Isn't it also harmful to yourselves?"

Liu Cheng summoned his courage and said, "I know the benefits of getting a good ranking, and I know how generous the rewards of being in the top ten are, but I am even more clear that I am not capable of reaching that level."

"Rather than fantasizing about the rewards in the top ten, it's better to grasp the benefits in front of us."

"Hong Bin promised us four last night. As long as we follow his instructions, he will give us a lot of benefits."

"Yes, Xiang Nan, I'm sorry." Yue Xiao'e of the White-clothed Sect also said apologetically, "I'm already 27 years old. I really can't afford to delay. I really need the pill that Hong Bin promised me."

"People die for wealth, birds die for food. I hope you don't blame us."

As she spoke, Yue Xiao'e raised her right hand and said, "Next, I will come on stage. Everyone, please vote."

They raised their four hands.

Yue Xiao'e looked at Xiang Nan apologetically, walked up to the empty space, and bowed to Hua Meng, "I'm ashamed of myself, admitting defeat."

With that, she turned around and walked back.

The referee announced on the spot: "Xiang Nan, three rounds three losses, the first loss, remember a loss, waiting to fight against the next team."

Yi Dong's team won a victory without even a single move.

Xiang Nan was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth.

At the next stop, the battle between Yi Dong's team and the other team had already begun.

At the edge of the mountain peak, Xiang Nan and the others stood together in silence.

Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "If I promise, I will definitely take you through the team competition."

Liu Cheng said, "So what? Even if we pass the team competition, there are still two hundred people left in the arena."

"Your strength is very strong. You can make it to a good rank, but the four of us are just cannon fodder. What benefits can we get?"

"Xiang Nan." Liu Cheng looked at Xiang Nan seriously. "No matter how strong you are, you are only at the 3rd level of the Origin Realm. You can't make it into the top ten. Why don't you lower your head and admit your mistake with Hong Bin? Perhaps he can give you some benefits. It's better than nothing."

"Bullshit!" "I'm not as shameless as you are!" Xiang Nan cursed angrily.

"What qualifications do you have to participate in the Twelve Sects Joint Examination? You don't even have the courage to fight. What face do you have to call yourselves martial artists?"

Xiang Nan said angrily, "So what if you can't win? Are you giving up? Do you really not even have the slightest bit of backbone?"

Liu Cheng sighed, "Whatever you say."

At this point in time, Xiang Nan was speechless.

He turned his head and looked at the first peak from afar.

The ten peaks were arranged in a circular pattern. The first peak was adjacent to the ninth and eighth peaks, and was facing the first peak.

At this moment, at the edge of the first peak, Hong Bin was hugging his shoulders and sneered at Xiang Nan. He even made a goodbye gesture to Xiang Nan.

Next, Xiang Nan made a shocking move.

He poured his Yuan Qi into his voice and shouted at Hong Bin, who was at the first peak, "Hong Bin! If it's a man, fight me openly! Don't play such shameful tricks!"

Xiang Nan's voice attracted everyone's attention.

No one had expected that Xiang Nan would actually put such words on the surface.

How could Hong Bin admit it? He just shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you want to fight me, come find me based on your ability. As for what you said about shameful methods, I don't understand."

Seeing such a scene, the audience was in an uproar again.

Each audience member had their own thoughts, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

As for the higher-ups of the Haoran Sect, would they just allow this situation to continue and just sit idly by?

A large crowd of spectators had already begun to shout, calling on the Nature Sect to change the rules of the competition.

However, the final outcome of the discussion between the Haoran Sect and the other eleven sects was to maintain the original rules and continue the competition!
