All three of them lost two games.
What's more interesting is that Jiu Yunchi lost one match to Song Sifan and another to Jiang Shaoze!
Jiang Shaoze and Jiu Yunchi fought a fierce battle! Even bystanders who didn't know the full story could see that Jiang Shaoze was fighting Jiu Yunchi at all costs!
Jiu Yunchi played as expected, stopping short of defeat, and lost to Jiang Shaoze in this match.
Jiang Shaoze had no intention of vying for the position of leader of the Eight Gates. His fight with Jiu Yunchi was almost a display of his full strength, leaving everyone bewildered and wondering if Jiang Shaoze had a grudge against Jiu Yunchi in private!
Even Kunan Kaoru thinks so!
As Jiang Shaoze sat down, looking somewhat tired, Jiu Nanxun frowned at him, a hint of wariness on her otherwise clean face. "Did you do this on purpose?"
Jiang Shaoze looked at Jiu Nanxun. Although he was happy that she took the initiative to talk to him, her eyes hurt him a little.
"Xiao Xun, I did it on purpose," Jiang Shaoze said honestly.
Jiu Nanxun immediately said, "If you have any complaints, you can take them out on me. Why are you targeting my older brother?"
Jiang Shaoze took a slow breath, trying to ease the feeling of his lungs about to burst. He had suffered some internal injuries during the fight, but he still said softly, "I wasn't targeting your older brother."
Jiu Nanxun looked at Jiang Shaoze, expecting him to explain, but he didn't.
Kunan Kaoru turned around, feeling a little angry at herself for being unable to do anything.
Jiang Shaoze stared at Jiu Nanxun's profile, a faint smile playing on his lips. If he had another chance, even knowing that Xiao Xun would misunderstand, he would still do the same.
He didn't care what others thought during today's Eight Gates Battle, but he was determined to defeat Jiu Yunchi!
He needs to gain the approval of the Jiu family before he can get close to Xiao Xun again. People like Jiu Yunchi only care about those with power, and this is a step he must take.
"Cough cough..."
Jiang Shaoze couldn't help but cough. He took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, swallowed the metallic taste in his mouth, and the handkerchief was stained with blood.
Jiu Nanxun suddenly turned her head and glanced at him again, just in time to see the blood on his handkerchief. She immediately frowned in disgust. In her memory, Jiang Shaoze elegantly and indifferently wiped the blood off his hands, showing coldness and contempt for the people he had killed.
These memories always easily pulled her back to those unreal years; her memories seemed a bit chaotic… Jiu Nanxun couldn’t help but scratch her hair, her scalp aching from the effort! But she felt as if she were sucked into her memories, standing at the entrance of that alley, unable to move!
Jiang Shaoze's eyes changed, and he hurriedly put away the handkerchief, placing his hand on Jiu Nanxun's forehead. With his other hand, he tried to stop Jiu Nanxun from abusing herself. He spoke very softly, "Xiao Xun, don't think about anything. Open your eyes and look around."
However, Jiu Nanxun reacted extremely, kicking and hitting Jiang Shaoze: "Get away from me! Don't touch me! Get out!"
When the cat heard Jiu Nanxun's voice, she suddenly looked up and saw Jiu Nanxun kicking and hitting Jiang Shaoze, looking very pained.
The onlookers were astonished! Was this girl too fierce? Was hitting someone so "simple"? They wondered what it felt like to be hit by those little fists. It must have felt good, otherwise, how come Jiang Shaoze, who was fighting fiercely with Jiu Yunchi just now, was now being beaten and kicked at will, acting as a punching bag?
The cat walked over and pulled the somewhat unusual Kunan Xun back.
Kunan Xun didn't seem to recognize the cat and said, "Let me go! Get out!"
Cat was a little surprised. She placed her hand on Jiu Nanxun's forehead and recited a calming mantra. Jiu Nanxun suddenly calmed down. She looked at Cat and said with some surprise, "Sister, why did you come here?"
The cat narrowed its eyes slightly and glanced at Jiang Shaoze, whose face had turned pale, but now he looked relieved.
The cat looked at Jiu Nanxun and said, "I was about to ask you the same thing, what are you doing?"
Jiu Nanxun realized that the atmosphere was a bit strange, and many people were looking at her... She quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay, sister, just think of me as crazy! Hehe, sister, let me sit next to me, don't switch seats with Jiang Shaoze."
This time, before the cat could say anything, Jiang Shaoze stood up and went to sit in his original spot.
Cat also sat down. Jiang Shaoze's seat was next to A Jin's. She had temporarily lost such a prime spot... However, what she was more interested in now was what was going on with Jiu Nanxun.
"You'd better explain yourself. What were you so agitated about just now?" Cat glanced at her.
Jiu Nanxun scratched her hair, an unconscious action under the influence of anxiety. She said somewhat dejectedly, "I don't know either, sister. I haven't been like this in a long time. I thought I had returned to normal... No, I have indeed returned to normal. Today is an exception."
The cat said, "Explain it more clearly."
As she listened, she glanced at Jiang Shaoze. Although he was a bit far away, he was keeping a close eye on Jiu Nanxun and seemed quite nervous.
Cat could sense that Jiang Shaoze had restrained his attention towards Jiu Nanxun a lot!
Jiu Nanxun said, "Sister, don't ask anymore, I'm really fine. Look, I'm perfectly alright now!"
The cat looked at Nanxun, who gave a smile that seemed somewhat ingratiating.
However, she was avoiding it... It would be strange if the cat couldn't see something so obvious! She was a little surprised that Kunan Kaoru also had something she was trying so hard to avoid.
The cat gave a soft hum and didn't ask any further questions.
But she said, "You'll be in trouble soon. You're going to have to fight someone, are you prepared to be tortured?"
Upon hearing this, Jiu Nanxun's smile vanished, and she completely lost the toughness she displayed when facing Jiang Shaoze. She tugged at the cat's arm and pleaded softly, "Sister, sister, I was just about to ask you! Tell me quickly, how do I fight that person? Are there any moves that I can learn in no time and use to defeat him the moment I make a move?"
The cat chuckled, "Are you dreaming?"
Jiu Nanxun refused to give up and continued to whine, "Sister, if I lose, I'll be the one who makes Jingmen lose face! Sister, please think about it, is it true or not?"
The cat then beckoned with its finger and said, "Come here a little."
Kunan Kaoru's expression brightened, and she immediately moved closer.
The cat whispered a set of mental techniques to her.
Kunan Kaoru asked in surprise, "Will this work?"
Cat nodded, "Of course! The Eight Gates of Magic are unconventional, and what I'll teach you is also magic."
Kunan Kaoru nodded slowly, "But this spell is really cunning..."
Ku Nanxun hastily tried to learn her mental techniques.
The eight sect leaders were competing, and three of them had the same winning percentage. They would not compete anymore because Mu Jin had spoken.
“In that case, let’s all come,” Mu Jin said.
