Chapter 220: It’s the Last Match, Do Well

Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Today was the final showdown of the Martial Arts Conference.

It was Immortal Sect vs. Disaster.

The strength of these two teams was obvious to all. From the beginning, they had been essentially locked into first and second place.

However, since Disaster was from another country, no one would support them.

Presently, there was an empty seat in the VIP seats.

The various Patriarchs whispered to each other, looking somewhat anxious.

“Patriarch Li, the Martial Arts Conference is about to end. Why isn’t this Guest Elder Qin back yet?” The Patriarchs asked anxiously.

Li Jingchen looked awkward. I don’t know either!

“Patriarch Li, You probably didn’t serve Guest Elder Qin well. If not, why did he leave without saying anything?” A Patriarch suddenly spoke.

“Patriarch Zeng, don’t speak nonsense. Guest Elder Qin hasn’t returned because he has something important to attend to.

“Besides, given the standards of Guest Elder Qin, he naturally wouldn’t be interested in such a competition.

“It is no exaggeration to say this is wasting his time.

“So it’s normal for him not to come,” Li Jingchen asserted.

“Now that Guest Elder Qin is not around, you can say whatever you want. Anyway, we will not listen to your excuses.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of air breaking suddenly came from above their heads, and then a deep voice rang in their ears.

“Who said that I’m not here?” The voice belonged to Qin Chuan.

There was a saying that went: The voice arrived before the person.

When the Patriarchs heard this, they immediately stood up as if they were sitting on needles.

A figure descended from the sky.

“Patriarchs, how have you been!” Qin Chuan smiled.

Speaking of the devil. All the lords were immediately full of smiles.

“Guest Elder Qin, where have you been these past few days? We thought you weren’t coming back?” A Patriarch asked.

Qin Chuan casually replied, “I had some matters to attend to, and just so happened to be done.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Guest Elder Qin, who do you think will win this final match?”

Qin Chuan smiled, “Naturally, the Immortal Sect.”

“How about their chances of winning?”

“100%.” Qin Chuan confidently replied.

Hearing this, the smiles on the faces of the Patriarchs became even brighter.

Guest Elder Qin was a Land Immortal. If he said they had a 100% chance of winning, that would certainly be the case.

In this way, Xia Country’s martial arts remains in first place. Genetically modified people and Yun Country’s Sword Dao were nothing.

The Patriarchs were in a great mood. Before the match had even begun, they had already asked Qin Chuan about the end of the Martial Arts Conference.

Back then, Qin Chuan had said that after the Martial Cultivation Conference ended, he would choose someone to cultivate with him.

However, he wouldn’t be randomly picking someone either. They needed to pass the test of the [Heart Refining Rock].

At that time, all the Patriarchs had given it a go, but no one passed.

Although they still had a chance, the Patriarchs had no confidence in themselves.

Hence, they were secretly discussing whether they should beg Qin Chuan for a chance to cultivate.

When Qin Chuan heard that they were talking about the matters after the Martial Arts Conference, he immediately guessed their intentions.

Judging from the current situation of the world, the cultivation was not big enough. Even with the three hundred soldiers from the Hero Company, it was still not enough.

To be honest, Qin Chuan really wanted to expand the cultivation community. However, given the current situation, he couldn’t just randomly recruit people.

If he were to take in someone with ill intentions, the consequences would be even more troublesome than those experimental subjects.

Unless he had reached a point where he had no other choice, he wouldn’t go against this principle.

Hence, for the sake of caution, Qin Chuan didn’t open the back door for these Patriarchs and instead told them his rules.

As such, these Patriarchs had nothing to say.

But they were really unwilling to accept this.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan thought of a solution.

He took out the Tao Te Ching and gave them one each.

“Patriarchs, if you wish to pass the test of the [Heart Refining Rock], this scripture might be able to help you.” Qin Chuan slowly spoke.

When they saw the scriptures in their hands, the gazes of all the Patriarchs became heated,. They were instantly filled with hope again.

Flipping open the scripture, the contents within made their eyes light up as if they had opened the door to a new world.

“Guest Elder Qin, this scripture…” The Patriarchs exclaimed repeatedly.

Qin Chuan said seriously, “As long as you can understand the contents, you will definitely be able to pass the test of the [Heart Refining Rock].”

“Thank you, Guest Elder Qin!” The various Patriarchs were overjoyed as they bowed and thanked Qin Chuan.

And that’s when loud cheers and shouts started coming from the audience.

That was because the members from Immortal Sect and Disaster had arrived.

This battle concerned the honor and disgrace of Xia Country’s martial arts.

Although the martial arts families did not make it to the last round, this did not mean that Xia Country’s martial arts were useless.

That was because the Immortal Sect was from Xia Country.

Soon, both sides arrived at the center of the arena.

In the VIP seats.

Qin Chuan suddenly spoke, “Patriarchs, I have a presumptuous request.”

“Guest Elder Qin, please speak.”

“I will be the referee for this battle. What do you guys think?” Qin Chuan asked.

After hearing this, the Patriarchs’ eyes lit up with excitement.

“We are naturally more than happy to have Guest Elder Qin be the referee.”

The Patriarchs did not hesitate and immediately agreed.

Thus, Qin Chuan arrived in the arena.

When the audience saw Qin Chuan, they couldn’t help but stir.

“Eh! Isn’t that Guest Elder Qin? Why is he there?”

“I’m guessing that he’s going to guide the Immortal Sect.”

“With the guidance of Guest Elder Qin, the Immortal Sect will definitely be able to win this battle.”

…

In an instant, Qin Chuan’s arrival boosted the confidence of the spectators.

In the venue, everyone was surprised by Qin Chuan’s arrival.

The people from the Immortal Sect looked at Qin Chuan with respect, but they did not greet him.

Their relationship with Qin Chuan had not reached the point of being publicized.

Qin Chuan smiled at them.

Then, he told the referee his purpose for coming.

The referee looked towards the VIP seats.

The Elders nodded.

The referee then left the venue.

The audience was in an uproar.

At this moment, Qin Chuan spoke, “Today, I will be in charge of hosting the match between the Immortal Sect and Disaster.”

The audience couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. Then, they burst into loud cheers and applause.

“Haha! So it turns out that Guest Elder Qin isn’t going to give pointers on tactics, but to be a referee.”

“With Guest Elder Qin around, there’s no reason for the Immortal Sect to lose.”

Everyone welcomed Qin Chuan as the referee.

At the venue.

Qin Chuan glanced at Disaster and the rest as he promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t side with either team. I will be fair and just.”

Then, he shifted his gaze towards the Immortal Sect.

“It’s the last match, do well!”

The people from the Immortal Sect said solemnly, “Yes!”

“Are both teams ready?” Qin Chuan asked.

“Yes!” The members of Disaster and Immortal Sect spoke at the same time.

“Alright, then both sides will wait at the designated spot.”

With that, everyone retreated.

After both parties arrived at the designated spot, Qin Chuan picked up the stick and gave the gong a heavy knock.

Clang!

“I hereby announce the start of the match!”

After Qin Chuan made the announcement, team Disaster side made their move first.

Daimon Kogoro’s muscles suddenly expanded. Then, like an iron tower, he charged towards the Immortal Sect aggressively.

Himura Kenshin pulled out his two katanas. Sword energy surrounded him as he charged towards the Immortal Sect.

As for the black-robed person, she continued to watch the battle without making a move.

On the other hand, the Immortal Sect was very calm.

“Leave that brawny man to me,” Wang Jiajun said.

“Then this young man is mine.”

The match was about to begin.
