Chapter 465: Can I forfeit the match?
Ye Fei slowly opened her eyes. Seventy-five, that was her crystal pendant number.
Is it finally her turn?
She lazily stood up, stretched, and then went straight to the ring: "Number 75 is here."
Many people in the audience were attracted by Ye Fei's exquisite features. Putting everything else aside, there were quite a few beautiful women at this Spirit Master Exchange Conference!
Song Zhi nodded slightly, looked around but still didn't see contestant number 49 appear, then raised his eyebrows: "Contestant number 49, please come to the arena!"
Ye Fei stood on the arena for a while, until she keenly smelled a familiar, strange, cold fragrance in the air, and suddenly turned around.
The cold-faced young man in black robes flashed onto the arena and slowly turned his gaze toward Ye Fei.
Ye Fei's expression froze slightly: "..."
Holy crap?
Number 49... it's actually Li Yuan?!
She sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. What's it like to be matched with your own teammates in the same game?
Just as Song Zhi was about to announce the official start of the match, Li Yuan suddenly spoke up: "Referee, I have a question to ask."
"Please speak," Song Zhi said, his hands behind his back.
Li Yuan: "Can I withdraw from the match now?"
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.
Song Zhi: "..."
Everyone: "...?"
No, what kind of operation is it to admit defeat as soon as you step into the ring?
Is it just cowardice, or some strange tactic?!
Song Zhi's face stiffened, but he quickly recovered and said in an unhappy tone, "As a participant, you naturally have the right to withdraw from the competition, but as a referee, I do not approve of withdrawing. Is it really appropriate for you to give up your first competition in the Spirit Master Exchange Conference like this?"
Li Yuan said calmly, "We're on the same team. Whoever wins or loses, we get the same points. So why waste time?"
Song Zhi was taken aback: "You... are teammates in the same squad?"
Ye Fei gave an innocent smile: "We are indeed teammates."
Song Zhi truly hadn't expected this reason. For over two hundred people to be drawn into the same opponent's team—that was just too much luck…
Everyone was dumbfounded: What the heck?! You can actually get points without even having to compete?!
Just as everyone was caught up in envy, jealousy, and resentment, a voice of discontent suddenly erupted from the audience: "This is not fair!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl standing up in the seats of Cangming Academy.
Ye Fei glanced at the girl. Wow, she's someone he knows!
Isn't this the girl named Xia Tong who pushed her off the summit of Panlong Lake?
However, she actually transferred from Xingluo Royal Academy to Cangming Academy, and Su Haochen was sitting next to her—it turned out they were teammates.
Ye Fei crossed her arms and asked slowly, "Unfair? Tell me, where is it unfair?"
Xia Tong glared at Ye Fei and said, word by word, "You must have tampered with the crystal cards! Otherwise, how could a teammate become an opponent?!"
"Your team gets points without even participating in the competition; that's unfair!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei laughed: "Judging from your tone, it seems you're questioning whether there's a problem with referee Song Zhi's draw?"
Xia Tong said coldly, "Referee Song Zhi would never cheat; the only one who could cheat is you!"
She gritted her teeth and said, "To get points for your team, you resorted to such despicable means! You should be expelled from the Spirit Master Exchange Conference and lose your qualification to compete for a spot!"
