Chapter Thirty-One ~ Tournament of Pride(16)

Standing triumph over the twins, Wei Jian simply bows before stepping off the stage. His bruised and battered body could no longer bare the strenuous movements. From afar, Song Meihu rushes toward her beloved.

The tournament's first match would end with the Golden Cicada sect going to the next round. And Wei Jian resting on Song Meihu's lap beneath her two sisters.

By the time Wei Jian had come to, he was informed Song Meihu that the final match would begin in an hour. And Guo Xiaoqing and the other disciples were waiting for his return.

Wei Jian takes a deep breath and slowly gets up from Song Meihu's lap. He can feel the pain in his body, but he knows that he must fight again. He walks over to Guo Xiaoqing and the other disciples of the Golden Cicada sect who are waiting for him. They exchange a few words of encouragement, and Wei Jian heads back to the tournament stage.

The final match is about to begin, and the opponent of the Golden Cicada sect is the Mount Hua sect. The two sects have been rivals for years, and this match is highly anticipated by the spectators.

The rules of the match are simple: it's a tag team battle, and each sect can have up to three members on the stage at a time. The battle will last for one hour, and the team with the most surviving members at the end of the hour will be declared the winner.

Wei Jian is paired with Guo Xiaoqing for the first round. They step onto the stage to face two formidable opponents from the Mount Hua sect. The battle begins, and Wei Jian and Guo Xiaoqing move in perfect unison. They use their agility and speed to dodge their opponent's attacks and strike back with lightning-fast kicks and punches.

As the battle progresses, it becomes clear that the Golden Cicada sect has the upper hand. Wei Jian and Guo Xiaoqing manage to take down one of their opponents, leaving the other one alone. The remaining opponent is determined to take down the two of them, but Wei Jian and Guo Xiaoqing refuse to back down.

In a moment of desperation, the opponent makes a reckless move, leaving himself wide open. Wei Jian and Guo Xiaoqing seize the opportunity and deliver a powerful blow that knocks him out of the match.

The crowd erupts into cheers as the Golden Cicada sect celebrates their victory. But the battle is not over yet. The Mount Hua sect sends two more members onto the stage, and Wei Jian and Guo Xiaoqing are forced to step down and let their teammates take over.

The next round is just as intense as the first. The Golden Cicada sect's remaining members put up a fierce fight, but the Mount Hua sect proves to be a worthy opponent. The battle is close, with both sides taking heavy blows and losing members.

As the hour draws to a close, only one member from each sect is left standing. Wei Jian and his opponent from the Mount Hua sect face each other, both exhausted but determined to win.

Wei Jian and his opponent circle each other, their eyes locked in fierce concentration. They both know that this final showdown will determine the winner of the match.

Wei Jian takes a deep breath and charges forward, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks. His opponent responds with lightning-fast strikes, and the two warriors exchange blows with incredible speed and precision.

The crowd watches in awe as the two fighters battle it out, their movements almost too fast to follow. Wei Jian manages to land a few blows on his opponent, but the Mount Hua warrior quickly recovers and retaliates with a powerful kick that sends Wei Jian flying.

Wei Jian hits the ground hard, his body aching from the impact. But he refuses to give up. He struggles to his feet and charges forward once again, his eyes blazing with determination.

The two warriors continue to trade blows, each one determined to come out on top. Sweat drips down their faces as they push themselves to the limit, their bodies battered and bruised from the intense battle.

As the final minutes of the match tick by, Wei Jian realizes that he must make a move if he wants to win. With a fierce roar, he launches himself at his opponent, unleashing a devastating combination of punches and kicks.

His opponent tries to fight back, but Wei Jian's attack is too powerful. With one final blow, Wei Jian knocks his opponent off the stage and onto the ground below.

The crowd erupts into cheers as the referee declares the Golden Cicada sect the winner of the match. Wei Jian and his teammates rush onto the stage, embracing each other in a triumphant hug.

As the dust settles and the cheering dies down, Wei Jian looks out at the crowd with a sense of pride and accomplishment. He knows that this victory was hard-won, but it was worth it. For him and his fellow disciples, this tournament was a testament to their skill, determination, and unshakable bond as members of the Golden Cicada sect.

Shen TingFeng, having seen the punishment turning into a victory, became even more suspicious of Wei Jian. A disciple he had given up on a while ago, is now completely different. But he'll deal with the matter next time, at least he should enjoy the win, against the Mount Hua sect.
