"The competition for rankings, just like the previous elimination rounds, requires mutual comparisons."
"AnYue Academy's Ye Chen versus AnYue Academy's Liu Qianqian."
The battle for the top five was much more exciting than the previous rounds. Thousands of spectators widened their eyes, afraid to miss any action.
Even the warriors on the judging seats stared intently.
Ye Chen and Liu Qianqian stepped onto the trial stage.
Just when everyone thought a fierce battle was about to begin, Liu Qianqian said something unexpected: "I concede."
Everyone present was surprised; they never expected Liu Qianqian to concede.
"Hmph!" Jin Cheng snorted, glaring at Ye Chen on the trial stage. He thought, Ye Chen, just you wait. I'll make you understand what true fear is.
"Tianlan Academy's Mu Hai versus Ye Chen!"
A warrior on the judging seats shouted.
Mu Hai walked onto the trial stage, swallowing hard. Since the incident at AnYue Academy, he developed a fear of Ye Chen.
"I... I concede!"
Although Mu Hai had become a senior reserve warrior a few days ago, he lacked the courage to face Ye Chen. He had to concede.
The audience gasped.
"What's going on?"
Seeing this, Mu Hai's father, Mu Feng, couldn't help but darken his expression.
The warrior who served as the host was also surprised, but since Mu Hai chose to concede, he had to continue.
"AnYue Academy's Yang Feng versus AnYue Academy's Ye Chen."
Yang Feng stepped onto the trial stage, and he and Ye Chen faced off.
Thousands of spectators held their breath, hoping not to hear those three words again. Unfortunately, they were destined to be disappointed.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Yang Feng uttered three words: "I concede!"
Ever since the forest and the beast observation, Yang Feng had a deep shadow of Ye Chen. Where would he dare to fight Ye Chen?
"This...!"
Yang Kun, Yang Feng's father, became somewhat angry. He never expected Yang Feng to concede.
When Liu Xinghe mentioned earlier that Ye Chen might take first place, Yang Kun had dismissed it, saying, "Not every clown can take first place."
Now, besides being angry, Yang Kun felt a burning pain on his face.
"There's something fishy! Something fishy!"
Thousands of spectators suddenly shouted.
In their view, why were they all conceding? Could it be that Ye Chen was some kind of devil? Besides an internal factor, they couldn't think of a better explanation.
The warriors on the judging seats were also puzzled, all looking at Liu Xinghe.
"Brother Xinghe, what is the identity of this student? They are all senior reserve warriors. Why did they concede without a fight?" Mu Feng asked Liu Xinghe.
"I don't know either," Liu Xinghe replied slowly.
The warrior serving as the host was shocked. In all the years he hosted the East Base City Three Academy Competition, such a thing had never happened.
Jin Cheng stared at Ye Chen, unable to understand why they conceded. Were they scared out of their wits? Although he had been beaten by Ye Chen in the Crystal Palace, back then, he was only an intermediate reserve warrior. Now, things were different; he had become a senior reserve warrior, and he even had a powerful elixir!
