My Master Knows It All

480: Chapter 177 Cliff-Diving Little Prince_5 480: Chapter 177 Cliff-Diving Little Prince_5 “This is the first person to admit defeat after the tournament began, isn’t it?”

“He doesn’t even have the courage to exchange blows with his opponent.”

“Just a moment ago, he was the one asking his opponent to concede.

In the end, it’s he who conceded.”

Around them, many looked at Hou Qianjun with disdain, even the elders who led the teams from several sects shook their heads.

“This disciple, to have cultivated to such a cultivation base, surely has decent talent.

However, his heart for cultivation is…

never mind, he isn’t a disciple of our sect, so let it be.”

“This disciple probably won’t achieve much.”

An elder, wearing robes embroidered with a Daoist altar design and exuding an air of immortal grace, shook his head slightly.

Recognizing the times and acting accordingly is indeed wise.

But what is this, if you don’t even possess the courage to spar with others?

The opponent is a master with a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, what a marvelous opportunity for real combat experience!

Who knows how many people, well aware that they wouldn’t place well in the tournament, still traveled thousands of miles to participate.

What they yearned for was precisely the chance to cross hands with the genius disciples from various immortal sects.

Yet Hou Qianjun, presented with such an opportunity, didn’t even attempt to fight and conceded directly.

Ling Xi, looking at Hou Qianjun’s direct concession, was also stunned for a moment.

She had only released her combat power because she was somewhat irritated by her opponent’s excessive force and wanted to teach them a lesson.

But then, he simply conceded directly.

Their disciples in Hundred Peaks Sect have never had the habit of conceding; they fight to the death without retreating.

She had thought that disciples from other immortal sects were the same.

Now, she realized that not all disciples of the various immortal sects were alike.

Or perhaps, the disciples of Clearfall Sect were somewhat special?

Hou Qianjun had already conceded, so naturally, Ling Xi claimed victory and stepped down from the arena, flying towards where the people of Four Treasures Peak were located.

On the mountain, many watched Ling Xi’s descending figure, starting to buzz with conversation.

“That Hou Qianjun is cunning, but I find this Ling Xi even more so.”

“Right, she clearly has such strong capabilities, why hide them?

If she acted outright, even the combined efforts of the other nine wouldn’t match her.

And yet, at first, she only showed a Golden Core.”

“It’s too sneaky.”

“Everyone, be careful.

Aside from Xiang Ziyu, whom we all know, we’re not familiar with the other disciples of Four Treasures Peak.

If the disciples from Four Treasures Peak are all this cunning, and we meet them without recognition, it could be troublesome.

We all know the geniuses from the major immortal sects, but not those from Four Treasures Peak.”

“No, we must check it out.

Let’s first get a good look at what the disciples from Four Treasures Peak look like.”

“Right, although the disciples of Four Treasures Peak are all Ten Different Phenomena Golden Elixir Great Perfection disciples, and we’re no match for them, in case we have a few powerful individuals on the arena, we could warn them to join forces against the disciples of Four Treasures Peak first.”

For a time, many disciples began to look over in the direction of the people from Four Treasures Peak or even flew up to get a better view from a different angle.

Cao Zhen couldn’t be bothered with these people.

After Ling Xi landed, he turned to Xiang Ziyu and whispered, “How did you come by that inheritance from Jian Yun?”

He had wanted to ask this question earlier, but since Ling Xi was in battle and he, as a master, had to pay close attention, he waited until now that Ling Xi had returned before he asked.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Ziyu immediately exclaimed, “Who am I?

I’m the protagonist, is it strange for me to discover an inheritance?

It’s really nothing much.

It happened when I was taking turns traveling with others, and I just happened to pass a place called Cliff of Falling Immortals.

It’s said that there, regardless of your cultivation base, no cultivator can fly.

Such places usually hold great secrets.

Our lodging was close to the Cliff of Falling Immortals, so I went to investigate.

And there, at the edge of the Cliff of Falling Immortals, I found a white ape, which even seemed to be provoking me.”

Of course, I gave chase, and then the white ape jumped off the Cliff of Falling Immortals.

It was clear as day, the white ape must be guiding me.

I didn’t hesitate to jump down right after it.”

Cao Zhen was immediately lost for words.

Before Xiang Ziyu left, he warned him a thousand times not to jump off cliffs, and yet he had done exactly that.

And it wasn’t just any cliff, but the Cliff of Falling Immortals, where even immortals couldn’t fly.

Yi Sheng was completely engrossed and quickly asked, “Then what did you encounter, Senior Brother?”

“Then, I found out that I was continuously falling.” Xiang Ziyu said mysteriously, “The Cliff of Falling Immortals really doesn’t permit flight.

After landing, I couldn’t even use my mana, I could only fall.”

“Eventually, I landed on a large tree; its branches were thick with leaves.

I broke several branches in succession before falling into a small pool.”

“The pool was very small, roughly ten feet in size but extremely deep.

Beneath the Cliff of Falling Immortals was just that one pool; everywhere else was just soil.

“Unfortunately, your brother here is the protagonist.

It’s my fate to fall into the pool.

But let me warn you, you are not protagonists, so don’t you ever imitate me by jumping off cliffs.”

Seeing Xiang Ziyu’s solemn expression, Yi Sheng nodded emphatically.
