"I admit defeat!"

When these words came out of Cao Xing Hai's mouth, the surroundings of the Star Platform were in an uproar.

This year's Stellar Martial Competition could be said to be a gathering of experts. The various families in Southcloud City had sent out their elites to compete in order to stand out and gain the favor of the envoy.

Admitting defeat was entirely driven by the instinct to survive!

However, Nie Feng's blade still slashed down. Because all of his energy was concentrated in this blade, his aura and spirit had reached an unprecedented peak. The strength of his blade was only a hair away from breaking through.

If Nie Feng were to forcefully stop him at this moment, he wouldn't be able to release the energy that he had been suppressing earlier. The backlash would definitely harm him, and the consequences would be extremely serious.

Let alone the grudge between him and Cao Xinghai, even if the two of them were complete strangers, Nie Feng would not harm himself!

However, this blade did not hit Cao Xinghai either.

Because at the moment of life and death, a powerful hand suddenly grabbed at him. It accurately grabbed the back of the blade and instantly suppressed the blade's momentum that was about to erupt!

The one who had acted was naturally the Arbitration Warrior. He would not sit idly by and watch a tragedy occur. At the critical moment, he had used a tyrannical technique to save Cao Xinghai's life.

Nie Feng's sabre intent dissipated, and his battle saber was suppressed by the arbitration warrior. Without saying anything, he let go of his sabre and retreated two steps, waiting for the judge to announce the result of this match.

It would be a lie to say that he had no regrets. However, such a situation was within Nie Feng's expectations. It wasn't the first time that he had been interfered by an arbitrator.

In fact, in this year's Star Platform Trial, no one had died, so the arbitration warriors intervened very quickly. Perhaps it was due to the participation of the elites from the large families!

"Nie Feng wins!"

The arbiter announced the result with a deadpan expression, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It took him a full fifty percent of his strength to lock onto Nie Feng's saber. If his reaction had been a little bit slower and his attack had been a little bit weaker, the result would have been completely different!

Under normal circumstances, Nie Feng's sabre should have been controlled more than three inches away from Cao Xinghai's head. Now, it was only an inch away.

The strength of this strike was beyond what the Arbitration Warrior had expected.

Nie Feng cupped his fist and greeted, "Thank you!"

If he won this competition, he would be able to enter the top ten ranks in this year's Stellar Martial Competition. It could be said that he had achieved his goal. At least, he had an explanation for Wan Shangzhi.

After obtaining the top ten, Nie Feng did not owe Wan An Martial Arts School anything.

However, his final goal was not limited to that!

Nie Feng's calm voice finally woke Cao Xinghai up. When he realized what just happened, his face instantly turned purple. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in.

He actually admitted defeat! He actually admitted defeat of his own accord and bowed his head to Nie Feng!

This was simply an extraordinary shame and humiliation!

Cao Xinghai had no idea how he could have made such an unforgivable mistake. He even suspected that Nie Feng had cast some kind of magic to confuse him to such an extent.

Being defeated by Nie Feng wasn't the worst case scenario. He had admitted defeat on the Heavenly Stele Platform, which was the focus of everyone's attention. The booing and mocking from all directions made Cao Xinghai feel as though he had fallen into an icy cave.

It's over, it's all over. How could he still have the face to return to Eastcalm City in the future?!

"If you've lost, you can leave. Why are you still up there!"

Seeing Cao Xinghai standing on the Star Platform in a daze, the surrounding crowd of spectators cried out in dissatisfaction.

The voice immediately got a response: "Get lost!"

The onlookers did not know anything about the Cao family in Dongning, nor did they know Cao Xinghai. They naturally did not have any scruples, and in addition to Cao Xinghai's cowardice, they even started to curse him.

Cao Xinghai didn't even know how he had walked down from the Star Platform. He felt that his entire mind was still muddled. Even though he had a gloomy and tolerant personality, he was still beaten black and blue.

"Xinghai …"

She hurriedly got down from the viewing platform and led him to the side. "Are you alright?" she asked concernedly.

She usually treated her two nephews as her own sons and doted on them even more than her own daughters.

Cao Xinghai shook his head, not wanting to say a single word.

Wan of the Clouds' grief turned into anger. She suddenly turned around and stared at the butler Cao Han. She lowered her voice and said, "I don't care what method you use, I just want to see a result!"

The hostess of Wan An Martial Arts School was like an enraged female leopard. Her eyes flashed with anger, danger and even a trace of madness.

Cao Han also could not help but feel his heart palpitate.

He understood what Wan Zhenghao meant, and also felt that his old face was dark.

Thinking for a moment, Cao Han said, "This old servant understands."

"There won't be a next time …"

Wan Shi angrily said a few words, then pulled Cao Xinghai's hand and said, "Let's go. Auntie will take you home first."

After Cao Xinghai was defeated by Nie Feng, how could she continue watching the competition?

All of the blame lay with Nie Feng!
