Chapter 316: Admitting His Defeat But Not His Mistake
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
No one was surprised . It did sound like something Du Yue would say .
Most people preferred the rich to the poor, especially in a world where everyone who practiced paid much attention to resources, but it wasn't a pleasant comment . No matter how many people agreed to it, it wasn't allowed to voice it in public .
Above all, Du Yue had put it in such an extreme way . It incurred great anger among the onlookers .
Many of them weren't from an aristocratic family of inheritance or a first-class group .
Even Grand Elder Snowbrow was shaking her head, since neither the dean of the Sacred Institute nor any lords of aristocratic families of inheritance would dare say what Du Yue had said in public . If they did, they would lose the public's support .
The end of the video was Du Yue and Jiang Chen's bet .
People realized Jiang Chen had actually won the bet, since Murong Yuan had left .
Three outstanding grades!
They were like three slaps across Du Yue's face .
"Elder Du Yue, have you realized yet how ridiculously you acted?" Jiang Chen didn't show any mercy before the silent Du Yue . He pressed the latter for an answer .
"I lost," Du Yue muttered like he was talking to himself . He suddenly raised his head, still with that disgusting look, and said, "But a single case can't prove anything . The resources owned by aristocratic families of inheritance—"
"Elder Du Yue, I didn't expect you not to keep your word . In this case, I won't waste time talking," Jiang Chen interrupted him .
Du Yue had admitted his defeat but not his mistake . It didn't matter . Jiang Chen had played the video before the public . Along with Ying Wushuang's performance, it wasn't difficult to sense from the onlookers' looks that the elder had lost nearly all of his authority .
Jiang Chen and Ying Wushuang glanced at each other, about to leave .
"If you're so great, you take the test, too . If you can get three outstanding grades, I'll admit I'm wrong!"
Du Yue was so stubborn that he was still trying to save face, but Jiang Chen and Ying Wushuang stopped at the same time .
Ying Wushuang was smiling with interest . Du Yue had dug a grave for himself .
The practice equipment in Jiang Chen's yards would record the results after each use .
For that moment, only her and Jiang Chen's results had been recorded .
Before she had started practicing, Jiang Chen, of course, had been ranked number one . Then Jiang Chen had been away for a long time and she had tried to surpass him, but until that day, Jiang Chen was still ranked above her .
Jiang Chen wasn't going to take the test that day, due to which Du Yue thought him unqualified .
After all, he had joined the Hero Palace not long before . In his mind, Ying Wushuang had most likely achieved this performance because she had been using the practice equipment of the Hero Palace secretly for the previous year .
"Are you sure?"
Jiang Chen seemed surprised that someone would play with fire so eagerly . He smiled meaningfully .
He likes to stay in the limelight, but he doesn't intend to take the test today . It must be due to a lack of confidence, Du Yue thought to himself . Then he nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure . As long as you can get three outstandings . "
He had even asked for three outstandings . This was cruel, because except for Ying Wushuang, no one had ever achieved it .
"If I make it, will Elder Du Yue give me the same excuse? As far as I know, you're shameless enough to claim even two people doesn't prove anything," said Jiang Chen .
"Huh, if you get three outstandings, I'll slap myself ten times! I mean it!" Du Yue shouted .
Wow!
The onlookers were still there, surprised to hear Elder Du Yue's words . They hadn't expected him to make such a big bet .
"All right . Everyone here will be my witness!"
Then Jiang Chen strode over to the water jar . He didn't seem nervous at all . In fact, he looked even more relaxed than Ying Wushuang, who had just broken the record .
He joined the Hero Palace less than two months ago . Ying Wushuang might have been practicing secretly in the past one year, but he definitely wasn't .
The Hero Palace's practice equipment is the best in the Dragon Field . The requirement of the test is also based on it . He hasn't ever performed the tests of the Hero Palace before . It'll be impossible for him to earn an outstanding, Du Yue thought . His speculation wasn't wrong .
