Jing Chunyu was burning with anger, but a few elders felt a sense of sour satisfaction in their hearts.
Despite the facade of harmony among the Jing Family elders, behind closed doors, there was competition.
Everyone wanted their own descendants to outshine the others and garner more family resources for cultivation.
Jing Luoying, who had just been severely injured by Jing Yan, belonged to Jing Chunyu's lineage. Under normal circumstances, with Jing Luoying's strength, he would have claimed a spot in the final. Now, however, he was unable to continue in the competition, freeing up a spot and giving the other elders' protégés another opportunity.
Seeing Jing Chunyu's gloomy expression, several elders rejoiced inwardly. Of course, they showed none of it on their faces.
"Jing Yan defeats Jing Luoying to become the new Challenger!" Jing Shiyu announced loudly from the edge of the arena.
At that moment, two guards came over and carried the severely wounded Jing Luoying away.
