In truth, whether it was Tang Ya's challenge choice or the choices made by Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun, many considered them reasonable.
In the minds of Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun, Tang Ya, no matter how talented, was still only at the late stage of the Spirit Martial Realm. In everyone's eyes, she still had a gap compared to the cultivators at the peak of the Spirit Martial Realm present. Tang Ya's advancement from the loser's bracket was only because she had encountered cultivators at the late stage of the Spirit Martial Realm. Yang Feilong, who had narrowly defeated her, couldn't be that much stronger.
As for the other five, they were all at the peak of the Origin Martial Realm. They had no guaranteed victory, and in such a situation, it was natural to choose Yang Feilong!
And in Tang Ya's heart, without resorting to her hidden weapons, Yang Feilong could defeat her without even using a weapon. If he used one, she would have no chance. As for the other five opponents, Tang Feng? He was her brother, they often sparred, and there was a significant gap between them.
Excluding Yang Feilong and Tang Feng, four people remained.
Among these four, Tang Ya felt that if she faced any of the other three, her chances of winning would be around forty-six, with her being the forty percent. However, against Mo Shangheng alone, she felt she had a fifty percent, or even slightly more, chance of victory!
At this moment, the choice fell to Yang Feilong.
The Tang family host looked at Yang Feilong and asked, "Yang Feilong, two people have chosen to challenge you. You can choose one to face! If you win, you enter the finals. If you lose, you still have another chance to challenge!"
All eyes were now on Yang Feilong, wanting to see his final choice.
"Does he choose Li Tengfei or Feng Yijun?"
"Neither of these two are bad, but based on their previous displayed combat strength, whether it's Li Tengfei or Feng Yijun, their chances against others are very low. Even so, no matter which one Yang Feilong chooses, I feel the probability of him losing is seventy to eighty percent!"
"You overestimate Yang Feilong. I feel that no matter who he chooses between Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun, the end result will be defeat! In my opinion, he has a gap with everyone else!"
Only Mi Ya and others believed in Yang Feilong. No matter who Yang Feilong chose, it wouldn't stop him from winning.
Mi Ya was even a little angry, as if they were treating her Feilong brother as a soft persimmon!
"Hmph! You'll soon know how absurd your opinions are!" Mi Ya thought to herself, looking forward to Yang Feilong proving these people who underestimated him wrong.
Amidst the discussions of countless people, Yang Feilong said to the Tang family host, "Can I choose to face both of them?"
"Uh!" The Tang family host was stunned, completely taken aback by Yang Feilong's question.
Face two people? How? A battle of attrition?
Who would go first, who would go second? If the first person defeated you, would the second person still have a reason to fight? If you defeated the first person, with so much energy expended, wouldn't the person who went second have the advantage of being well-rested?
"If they join forces and I face them both, if they can defeat me, then I lose, and they can compete for the spot. Of course, if I defeat their combined efforts, they are both eliminated," Yang Feilong said calmly.
As soon as these words were spoken.
It caused a sensation.
"Isn't this Yang Feilong too arrogant? I originally thought he would face them one after another, but I never expected him to say he'd fight them both at once?"
"He's thinking that he'll lose no matter who he fights, so he might as well fight them both, and if he loses, he'll have a reason and excuse to say he lost because he was facing two people?"
"This is a scheming man!"
"Alright!" The Tang family host consulted the patriarch.
At this moment, Lei Ba looked at Ouyang Tian beside him and said, "You've always thought Yang Feilong could advance to the finals. What about now? Can he win against two people at once?"
"Not a big problem," Ouyang Tian replied calmly.
Whether from his heart or rationally, he didn't believe Yang Feilong would lose, nor did he want Yang Feilong to lose to these scums. In his mind, anyone who hadn't reached the Origin Martial Realm was scum. The young master of the Ouyang family was indeed arrogant.
"Heh." Lei Ba chuckled. If it was one-on-one, there was still a sliver of hope. Two-on-one? Even Tang Feng, who seemed the strongest in the quarter-finals, would find it difficult to fight two opponents at once!
Yang Feilong doing this might be his way of making an excuse for his defeat!
He couldn't understand why Ouyang Tian had so much confidence in this Yang Feilong? And judging by Ouyang Tian's attitude, he didn't seem to have any good feelings towards Yang Feilong!
Strange!
He naturally didn't know that Ouyang Tian had suffered a great loss at Yang Feilong's hands. If he had known, he wouldn't have looked down on Yang Feilong so much.
Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun both laughed, a laugh of exasperation. They chose Yang Feilong because, in their minds, Yang Feilong was the weakest among the six in the winner's bracket. They were picking on the softest target.
But they never expected Yang Feilong to want to face them both at once. They didn't think Yang Feilong was looking down on them; instead, they thought Yang Feilong had given up on himself and wanted to lose gracefully.
They had no choice, as they were the challengers.
Now, their task was to defeat Yang Feilong decisively, and then the two of them would duel to see who would ultimately secure a spot in the finals!
Whoosh~~~
Yang Feilong stood on the arena, facing the two of them from afar.
"You want to lose gracefully, but we won't allow it!" Li Tengfei sneered.
"One move each, we hope you can withstand it!" Feng Yijun's lips revealed a playful smile.
Yang Feilong wanted to lose gracefully, but they wouldn't give him that. They wanted to defeat Yang Feilong with a thunderous strike, and then duel each other for the spot.
"You're overthinking it. You think I'm a soft persimmon, but in reality, I just feel you're too weak, which is why I'm letting you both come at me together! Attack, I'm in a hurry!" Yang Feilong shrugged. Why were some people always so presumptuous?
"We are too weak? You're in a hurry?......" Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun almost spat blood upon hearing this.
How dare this guy look down on them so much! If they didn't show him some real power, wouldn't they be considered inferior?
Boom boom!
One wielding a saber, the other a sword, they instantly unleashed their thunderous offensive.
Facing the enraged duo, Yang Feilong's figure suddenly vanished from his spot. Fast, to an extreme degree.
The next moment, with two loud bangs, everyone in the arena saw two figures fly out of the ring.
"This......"
"It's over already?"
"What did I just see?"
"No chance to retaliate, no, the speed Yang Feilong exploded with at that moment was too fast! He directly appeared behind the two, one punch each, and sent both of them flying out of the ring!"
"I originally thought Yang Feilong wanted to lose more gracefully, and then the two of them didn't want to give him that grace, but in the end, it was Li Tengfei and Feng Yijun who were disgracefully sent flying?"
"I guessed someone would lose disgracefully, but I didn't expect the ones who lost disgracefully to be the joint challengers! I have to say, we all underestimated Yang Feilong!"
"Yes, we underestimated Yang Feilong!"
"Speaking of which, does Tang Ya really have a chance to defeat Mo Shangheng?"
"I thought there was no hope before, but now, I feel the hope is great, because Tang Ya fought with Yang Feilong for a long time!"
Seeing the speed Yang Feilong displayed at that moment, and the authority with which he defeated the two, Lei Ba's expression became slightly more serious. "This Yang Feilong is not simple. He has probably reached the Origin Martial Realm!"
"You're only just realizing that," Ouyang Tian scoffed.
"You knew long ago?" Lei Ba asked, looking at Ouyang Tian's expression.
"Yes!" Ouyang Tian nodded.
Lei Ba looked at Ouyang Tian speechlessly: "......"
You knew all along, and you watched me repeatedly belittle Yang Feilong, thinking it was amusing? You were watching me make a fool of myself, weren't you?
And indeed, Ouyang Tian was enjoying Lei Ba's predicament!
Lei Ba gritted his teeth. This guy was truly detestable. Of course, he was also quite displeased with Yang Feilong. I clearly didn't think highly of you, yet you're making such a stir. Who are you showing off for?
