Chapter 3796: Who won and who lost?

Translator: 549690339

Although he was biased toward Meng jueguang and Meng Tong, he was still the pavilion master of the welcome Pavilion. He couldn’t be too biased in front of so many people. In this situation, he couldn’t directly declare Qiao hongcai as the loser and Meng Tong as the winner. At most, it would be a draw.

Even though Meng jueguang was only a Senior Steward, Hu Yunfeng had his own information channels and already knew that Xu lingchong was planning to support Meng jueguang to his position. In this way, the two of them were considered Xu lingchong’s people and would be in the same group in the future. They would have to be more polite to each other.

“A draw?” Meng jueguang was stunned and deliberately lowered his voice so that no one around him could hear him.

For Hu Yun Feng, the pavilion master, announcing a draw in this duel would further display his objective and fair image. After all, everyone had seen this. It was natural for Qiao Hong Cai and Meng Tong to call it a draw, and no one could find fault with it.

However, he had brought up this suggestion in private with Meng jueguang, which meant that if Meng jueguang had an objection, there was still a chance to turn things around.

A wily old fox like Meng jueguang would naturally be able to tell that Hu Yunfeng was leaving him some leeway, and was preparing to use this opportunity to do him a favor.

In the past, Meng jueguang would have never even dared to think about such a thing. After all, the other party was the pavilion master of the welcome Pavilion, while he, Meng jueguang, was just a small senior brother manager. There was a huge disparity in their status, and they had a true superior-subordinate relationship. If there was anything that needed to be done, Meng jueguang would have just given a direct order. How could he have discussed it with him so politely?

As expected, one had to look at the owner before hitting the dog. With the big backing of young master Xu lingchong, the treatment was really different!

At this rate, if he were to become the third Pavilion master in the future, even the high and mighty Pavilion master Hu Yunfeng would have to call him brother and arm-wrestle him!

Meng jueguang was secretly pleased, but after some thought, he said,”Lord Pavilion master, the word” draw “has never appeared in the rules of our newcomer assessment. After all, the rules were approved by the elders. If we change it in private, I’m afraid it will be said that we are disrespecting the higher-ups and will attract gossip! For us martial artists, there’s no first in literature and no second in martial arts! This is the truth!”

“That’s right, but we have to deal with this matter as soon as possible. If we continue to drag this on and something happens to the two newcomers on stage, then jueguang, we won’t be able to explain it to the higher-ups!” Hu Yun Feng said hesitantly.

It was true that adding the word “draw” without the approval of the higher-ups was somewhat risky, but if this continued, Qiao hongcai and Meng Tong, two potential early Foundation establishment newcomers, would die of exhaustion. The consequences of this matter would be far more serious than the former!

At that time, once the matter was caught by someone with ulterior motives and brewed up, then he, Hu Yun Feng, the welcome Pavilion’s Pavilion master, would inevitably be labeled as incompetent and incompetent.

This was not a joke. Being fired on the spot was already a light punishment. It might even alarm the law enforcement Hall. Once those shady things were dug out, it would be difficult for him, Hu Yun Feng, not to die!

Therefore, even if he had to bear a little risk of being gossiped about, Hu Yunfeng had to quickly end this battle that would cause both sides to suffer.

After all, it was not like he had no connections at the top. As long as he did not alert the fiends in the law enforcement Hall, it would not be a big problem for him to be gossiped about and spread rumors.

Hearing this, Meng jueguang rolled his eyes and said,”Pavilion master, I actually have an explanation. There’s no need to drag it out like this, and there’s no need to use the word ‘draw’ that has never appeared in the rules. There’s no need to take any risks. It’s also reasonable and well-founded, so that no one can pick a bone with it.”

“Oh? Then jueguang, tell me. ” Hu Yunfeng’s eyes lit up. If he could have the best of both worlds, that would be the best for him.

Meng jueguang chuckled and immediately leaned over, whispering in this and this way. Hu Yun Feng nodded repeatedly as he listened, clapping the table in praise.

After the two of them conversed in private, Hu Yunfeng walked up to the ring and announced to the crowd,””Due to the special circumstances of this duel, the newbies from both sides have suffered heavy losses and have lost their ability to move. It is meaningless to continue this battle. In fact, our Welcome Pavilion might even lose two potential newbies. Therefore, I have decided to stop this duel in the name of the welcome Pavilion master.”

These words didn’t cause any dispute. Everyone, including Lin Yi and the others, knew that this was the inevitable result. Otherwise, if they let Qiao hongcai and Meng Tong continue to fight, Hu Yunfeng’s position as the pavilion master would probably be over.

However, Hu Yunfeng’s next few words caused an uproar.

“However, even though both sides suffered losses and no one could do anything to the other, the rookie Challenge has never been a draw. A loss is a loss, a win is a win! According to the rules, the Challenger from a lower ranking cave is naturally the weaker party. Even if it ends in a draw, it can still be said that the weak has defeated the strong. Our welcome new pavilion has always advocated fighting without fear of the strong enemy. Therefore, I hereby announce that the winner of this duel is Meng Tong from cave number thirteen at the foot of the mountain!” Hu Yun Feng said in a righteous tone.

Meng Tong wins? The crowd was stunned. After they came back to their senses, they burst into a discussion.

Although there was nothing to pick on with Hu Yunfeng’s argument, after all, according to the rules of the rookie Challenge, the active challenger couldn’t drag out the time and had to make the first move within half an incense’s time. It was indeed a natural disadvantage.

However, everyone present could see that Qiao hongcai had clearly turned the tables and gained the upper hand. If one had to give an explanation, it would be more reasonable for it to be a draw where both sides had suffered heavy losses. However, Hu Yunfeng had directly judged him to have lost to Meng Tong, which was clearly unfair to Qiao hongcai.

Of course, this matter had nothing to do with them. The others would at most just watch the show and discuss it. They would not cause any trouble because of this.

However, as Qiao hongcai’s boss, Lin Yi wouldn’t just stand by and watch his follower suffer.

“Pavilion master Hu, please forgive me for being curious. Have you ever seen a battle where the winner can only lie on the ground without knowing whether he’s Dead or Alive, while the loser can still stand on the stage?” Lin Yi walked slowly to the edge of the stage and raised a brow.

At this moment, after hearing Hu Yunfeng’s announcement, Meng Tong heaved a sigh of relief and immediately fainted. On the other hand, Qiao Hong, who had just been declared the loser, stood up with a breath of air.

The other rookies couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the irony, even if they weren’t on Lin Yi’s side.
