I Am The Young Master

Chapter 46: I surrender

"What the fuck was that?" I asked no one in particular.

How did it suddenly turn into a 'girls love'?

To distract myself from the last fight, I looked at the place that I last saw Jin Fen. He was still standing there and he too was shocked.

His reaction to the fight was not something that I thought I would see and I wasn't able to use it in order to get some hints. He was simply shocked by this development.

I wasn't willing to accept that I won't be able to find anything from this fight, so I looked at his posture and looked for his subconscious movements.

His eye was moving in his eye sockets without any pattern or any sign of reason to it. This showed me that he was in deep thoughts and wasn't aware of his surrounding.

You could see that one of his hands was clenched and from time to time, he would experience a nervous hand tic.

I tried to put these puzzle pieces together. He is clearly anxious about something...

'Is he thinking about Lai Xinyue's well-being?' I asked myself.

'…No that can't be it, the sect would ensure of every disciple's safety.' I didn't think this could be possible. Even if it was possible for Lai Xinyue to be hurt, I know for a fact that Ye Ling wouldn't let anything happen to her.

'He might be thinking about Lai Xinyue having a hard time getting into the final battle now that she is on the losing side…' I hypothesized about his reasoning.

This is possible, but I still don't know why he has such an interest in Lai Xinyue's affairs. She said she doesn't know him and he didn't refute at the time so I don't think there is any possibility that they know each other. There might be a chance that Jin Fen 'knows' her but Lai Xinyue doesn't know him.

'As I thought before, Jin Fen either knows Lai Xinyue one-sidedly or he is seeing someone else in Lai Xinyue's face.' I think these two are the more plausible reasons among all the shit that I thought about.

Well, I can find out more about it in the near future so knowing this much right now is good enough for me.

Coming out of my thought I saw Hu Anjing looking at my face with slightly narrowed eyes. Before I could ask her about it, she spoke.

"That was your definition of a good fight?" she asked sarcastically.

She is talking about when I told her to watch this fight because it would be a good one…

"Well, to be fair the part that there were fighting was good." I shrugged.

Without talking back, she just leaned back in her chair.

"How many fights are left for today?" she asked. It was clear that she was getting bored of the same style of fights today…

"If I'm not wrong, this is going to be the final fight of the day." I was also getting tired of these fights but I had to be on the sect's platform because of the rules regarding these events…

"Is it going to be another good fight, junior uncle?" Hu Anjing teased.

"Honestly, I think it wouldn't be interesting at all…" I answered her giving the impression that I was oblivious to her tease. Of course, this wouldn't fool Hu Anjing but it could get on her nerves.

She answered me by pinching my arm. It was a pinch with the power of the fifth stage of the Iron body. I hardened my arm with my meager body cultivation but it still fucking hurt in the end.

There was no point in talking back and forth with Hu Anjing about this so I didn't complain to her.

But I really was honest when I said this fight wouldn't be much fun. Why? One side of this fight is Jin Fen. He would probably anger the dude again to attack him and suddenly power-up in the lowest point of the fight.

The only redeeming point to this fight is that the one who is going to fight Jin Fen is one of Dai Bao's lackeys so this might have some drama to it…

His opponent is named Peng Chun and he is from the inner court. I guess he must be one of the top lackeys or a head minion to be able to be here for the selection round.

I think Dai Bao didn't fight his own lackey at that time so that he won't lose more face than he already did. On the other hand, now he can use his lackey to show Jin Fen that he is nothing if he didn't have that technique at their fight.

After this fight, we would have the rest of the day for ourselves and tomorrow the winners would fight for 10 thrones and the losers would fight a battle royale to decide which five would be going to challenge for the 10 thrones.

After our selection is finished I can use my time to find interesting things and improve my control on the [Peeping eye of heaven].

As I was thinking about what would come after this fight, the fighters set foot onto the stage. Peng Chun was holding his head high with arrogance and on the opposite side, Jin Fen was in deep thoughts and had a small frown on his face.

Seeing that Jin Fen didn't speak, Peng Chun decided to use this moment to do some classic UFC style trash talk.

"Jin Fen, today our fight has only one meaning to it, I'm going to kill the chicken to warn the monkey…" he declared. (A/N: meaning to punish an individual to set an example to others.)

The crowd started talking and soon everyone knows about the back-story of these two disciples and the reason for this hostility.

Even I was taken aback.

'This fucker is not only calling Jin Fen chicken but is calling me a monkey.' I was really amused with how ballsy this Peng Chun showed himself to be.

Hearing Peng Chun's words, Jin Fen got out of his thoughts and looked at him as if looking at an insignificant bug.

'Now I get why the MCs would act like that. I mean I barely know this guy and already want to punch his face.' I nodded to myself.

"A Mantis trying to stop a chariot. Aren't you thinking too highly of yourself?" Jin Fen answered with a raised eyebrow and the same amount of arrogance.

Experiencing the fight before this, the crowd know that the hotter the trash talk, the better the fight is, so they waited patiently for them to start attacking each other.

"I want to see if you have the face to practice martial art after this fight…" Peng Chun smirked as if he has already won this fight.

Jin Fen took a step toward Peng Chun but stopped. He clenched his fists for a few moments and then slowly opened them. He turned around and started walking.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this development, why is he turning his back to the enemy in the middle of the fight? No one could make sense of this.

'Don't tell me…' I thought.

As Jin Fen got to the border of the fighting stage he stopped and turned toward the stunned Peng Chun.

"I won't be dirtying my hands with pig's blood and would talk to your master directly." After he said that, he went off from the stage. By doing this he lost the fight and would face Dai Bao in tomorrow's battle royale.

Peng Chun who was played by Jin Fen was enraged but couldn't do anything about it.
