Everyone had assumed that even if Bai Ziyu was bound to lose this semifinal match, it would only be after he had fought to exhaustion and been knocked out of the ring by Yang Jing.

In the area where the Yunxi Peak disciples were gathered.
Yuwen Mingjue stood at the front, his fists clenched tight. His expression was incredibly grim as he stared fixedly at Yang Jing and Bai Ziyu on the stage.
"Pathetic!"
"Utterly pathetic!"
Yuwen Mingjue couldn't stop himself from forcing a few words through his clenched teeth. His voice was low, but it was thick with frustration and dissatisfaction.
In his view, someone as powerful as Bai Ziyu—a prodigy ranked second on the Hidden Dragon List—should possess the pride and integrity befitting a genius.
Even if he were severely injured, even if he were beaten into a sorry state, he should never have been the one to verbally concede on the stage.
