Mu Bai, the Greatest Actor

From the moment he was expelled from Haotian City, Yue Cheng vowed that one day he would reclaim the dignity that had been trampled upon by the Vast Heaven Sect and Chu Xinghe.

He entered the Martial Emperor City and learned the Golden Radiance Battle Intent, thus becoming one of the most outstanding disciples in the Martial Emperor City.

Having come to the Vast Heaven Sect disciples' martial arts competition, Yue Cheng secretly vowed that in this battle, he would let the Vast Heaven Sect know that not joining the Vast Heaven Sect was not his loss, but the Vast Heaven Sect's loss!

I must go against the tide and let the world know that Vast Heaven Sect blind not to choose me back then, and that Chu Xinghe was blind too!

But at this moment... Yue Cheng collapsed off the stage, completely Sparta.

Damn it! I was playing like a rock in this game, why is the opponent a fire-type?

You're from the Muyue Kingdom, and you're practicing fire magic? Are you out of your mind?!

Does your Vast Heaven Sect have no normal people among you?

Yue Cheng was so enraged that he laughed wildly while spitting out blood.

Zheng Yu quickly approached Yue Cheng and took out some pills to suppress Yue Cheng's aura, because he knew that Yue Cheng had been too stimulated and was showing signs of going into qi deviation.

"Junior brother, although you have been defeated today, it is only temporary. Your opponent's abilities are superior to yours, so it is not your fault!"

Zheng Yu quickly comforted him, and Yue Cheng, while crying, hugged Zheng Yu for comfort.

On the arena, Chu Xinghe had already arrived beside Mu Heng.

"Mu Heng! Can you explain to me what this is?" Chu Xinghe was so angry he laughed... At this moment, Chu Xinghe felt that he should get a few bottles of Zheng Yu's qi-suppressing pills too, because he was so angry he was about to go berserk!

What happened to the agreed-upon 50% effort? What happened to the promise of saving face?

What happened to the rule that you could only lose and not win?

What did you mean by instantly killing someone with a single blow right from the start? Did you even consider their feelings? Did you consider the sect's reputation? Did you consider how difficult things were for Senior Brother Xinghe?

Seeing Senior Brother Xinghe's angry face, Mu Heng burst into tears.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, I really tried my best... I swear to God, I only used half my strength. This Yue Cheng is just too weak! I held back, but he couldn't handle it at all..."

"Pfft..." Yue Cheng, who had overheard the conversation above, coughed up a mouthful of blood, completely suffering a qi deviation...

Zheng Yu: "???"

Grand Elder: "???"

The Grand Elder didn't understand the battle just now, but he did understand the conversation...

What the heck? It seems like Xinghe deliberately arranged for Mu Heng to lose?

Are you only letting Mu Heng use 50% of his strength?

But the Grand Elder soon learned what had happened from Mu Bai.

It turns out that Xinghe was afraid that Martial Emperor City would lose too badly and lose face, so he deliberately told Mu Heng that it was not impossible for him to lose this battle to Martial Emperor City.

Listen to this! What a wonderful child... He not only considers the victory or defeat of his sect, but also the other party's face.

That's absolutely right. Look at Cheng Xiaotian in the stands over there, his face is so dark...

If you knew Xinghe's good intentions, you would definitely be even more furious.

However, Xinghe had put in a lot of effort, but unfortunately his opponent was too weak. In addition, due to the counter effect of his technique, Mu Heng only used 50% of his strength, but still managed to kill his opponent instantly.

That's why Xinghe got angry, but Xinghe, it's really not Mu Heng's fault; the opponent was just too weak.

Zheng Yu's tears started falling...

The conversation on stage just now was even more painful than watching Yue Cheng get instantly killed.

But it's no use feeling worse, what did you say?

Is the Vast Heaven Sect engaging in underhanded dealings?

But have you ever seen a scheme where someone's own people only use half their strength?

This is blatant manipulation behind closed doors—how do you crack that?

The key is that it was a reverse manipulation, and they still won... Yue Cheng, you're really bad!

But Senior Brother Xinghe, while your actions weren't particularly harmful, weren't they a bit too insulting?

Seeing Senior Brother Xinghe's furious expression as he dragged Mu Heng off the stage, subjecting him to a barrage of insults and a beating, what could Zheng Yu say?

Look... those who won are even more upset than we are when we lost...

In the stands, countless Vast Heaven Sect disciples were now completely stunned.

This was the strangest fight they had ever seen; the winner looked even more miserable than the loser. What the hell was going on?

But that doesn't matter! In these two matches, Senior Brother Xinghe used unexpected moves one after another, completely dominating Zheng Yu.

As expected! Apart from Senior Sister Wan Lin, no one in my Vast Heaven Sect would ever lose to Martial Emperor City!

Wan Lin: "I...￥...%&...&*&*&%"

"Senior Brother Zheng Yu, this third match is the real showdown. Please rest assured, I will definitely win this final match. If I fail, I will atone with my death!"

Mo Kai's face practically screamed "I'm ruthless!"

His willingness to atone with his death shocked Zheng Yu.

"Junior brother, don't say such things. With your Unparalleled Tyrant Sword, you will surely win this third battle!"

"Don't worry, senior brother!"

Mo Kai stepped onto the ring.

"Mu Bai... this battle..."

"Senior Brother Xinghe, please rest assured, I will definitely lose to Mo Kai in this battle!" Mu Bai understood Senior Brother Xinghe's good intentions.

We've won two out of these three battles, so victory is practically in our grasp. In this final battle, for the sake of Martial Emperor City's reputation, I, Mu Bai, am going all out.

Look! What a wonderful child... Mu Bai is truly outstanding. Not only is he the number one in cultivation among the three hundred disciples of the Muyue Kingdom, but his acting skills are undoubtedly superb as well.

"I won't say anything more, senior brother. We are destined to lose this battle!"

"Defeat is inevitable!"

Mu Bai stepped onto the arena with a mindset of certain defeat.

On the arena, Mo Kai carried a black greatsword, the Unparalleled Tyrant Sword of Martial Emperor City. With the sword in hand, Mo Kai exuded a wild aura.

A flash of white light appeared in Mu Bai's hand, and the divine sword Marquis of Xinting made its dazzling entrance.

The Unparalleled Tyrant Sword faces the Marquis of Xinting; in this battle, only defeat is permitted, not victory!

As soon as the elder gave the order to begin, the battle commenced. Mo Kai's strength was indeed extraordinary. Although there was still a long way to go before he could completely overpower Mu Bai as rumored, Mo Kai had been in complete control from the start. He was the only one who could attack, and Mu Bai had no power to fight back except to dodge and parry.

Zheng Yu smiled.

Chu Xinghe looked pleased.

Mu Heng, look at your Senior Brother Mu Bai! Not only is his cultivation outstanding, but his acting skills are also perfect.

Chu Xinghe knew Mu Bai's strength very well and could clearly see that Mu Bai was definitely not using his full strength right now, otherwise he would never be being suppressed like this.

However, this is also where Mu Bai; despite being at a disadvantage, he did not immediately fail.

After all, this third battle is very important. Even if we lose, we can't afford to lose so badly, right?

Besides, Mo Kai is really skilled; if you really think about it, Mu Bai might actually be slightly weaker than him.

But with Mu Bai's acting skills, this defeat is inevitable!

Swords flashed wildly on the arena. Mo Kai chased, Mu Bai fled. Mo Kai continued to chase, Mu Bai continued to flee!

In short, although Mo Kai is suppressing Mu Bai, it is completely impossible for him to win in the short term.

Although the competition was long and tedious, and even completely lacking in entertainment value, Chu Xinghe watched it with great interest.

Junior Brother Mu Bai's performance was perfect; I would call him the ultimate Best Actor.

Senior brother, I'm no match for you! I botched my performance last year, but your acting this year is phenomenal!

On the arena, the Unparalleled Tyrant Sword flashed and swirled. The Unparalleled Tyrant Sword was known as a technique that grew stronger the more it was fought, and just as the rumors said, Mo Kai had transformed from his initial wildness into a berserk state.

His Unparalleled Tyrant Sword swept wildly towards Mu Bai, but Mu Bai was exceptionally agile and could not hit him.

The battle lasted a full hour. Mu Bai was panting heavily from running away, while Mo Kai, empowered by his aura, had entered a berserk state!

Chu Xinghe kept giving Mu Bai meaningful glances from below the stage.

Brother... that's about enough... You're already very strong. Losing by one move is still a perfect outcome.

Seeing Senior Brother Xinghe's gaze, Mu Bai immediately understood and nodded secretly, beginning to look for an opportunity to fail.

Just as Mu Bai was considering whether he would be slapped out or accidentally jump down, Mo Kai was turning red all over and had entered a berserk state, roared wildly.

He chased her for an hour, even though he was clearly stronger than her, he just couldn't do anything to her. This anger made Mo Kai lose his mind.

"Ah... you scoundrel! Today I will kill you! Die!"

Mo Kai's eyes were bloodshot. Seeing this, Chu Xinghe was shocked. Could this guy have gone into a qi deviation?... Mu Bai, quickly admit defeat!

Before Mu Bai could react, a thick black mist suddenly exploded from Mo Kai's body!

Very good! It's not a case of going astray!

That thick black mist surrounding this guy... is it demonic energy?

The sudden influx of demonic energy instantly turned the once peaceful martial arts arena into chaos!

What the hell? How come Mo Kai has demonic energy on him?

This could only happen if one cultivated demonic arts!

But isn't Mo Kai a disciple of Martial Emperor City? Why does his Unparalleled Tyrant Sword contain demonic energy?

In an instant, countless people were stunned, and even Cheng Xiaotian stood up in surprise.

"Demonic energy... Has this guy become demonized?"

"Brother... don't you have any common sense? At most, the Unparalleled Tyrant Sword Technique can cause a qi deviation; it's impossible for it to generate demonic energy. Only cultivating demonic arts can produce it!"

"This Mo Kai has practiced demonic arts!"

"I remember now!" Ma Liang suddenly shouted!

"Senior Brother Xinghe once said in Haotian City that he suspected there was a spy from the Demonic Sect among the top three! It turns out he was referring to Mo Kai!"

As soon as Ma Liang uttered those words, the entire training ground descended into chaos.

Everyone knew that Senior Brother Xinghe had expelled the top three students, but at the time, Senior Brother Xinghe's reason was that he suspected there were spies from the Demonic Sect. This reason once became a point of ridicule for Senior Brother Xinghe.

Many people say that Chu Xinghe is talking nonsense. If you're going to suppress the top three, then so be it. This reason is a bit too far-fetched, isn't it?

Later, many people broke through their mental barriers and realized that Senior Brother Xinghe actually wanted to use the top three to set up a scheme, but no one paid any attention to the claim that the Demonic Sect was a spy.

But at this moment, seeing Mo Kai, whose mentality had been shattered by Mu Bai and whose body was shrouded in demonic energy, everyone understood...

It turns out that Senior Brother Xinghe wasn't just talking casually; there really is a traitor from the Demonic Sect among the top three!

Senior Brother Xinghe is truly unfathomable!
