Chapter 280 - Entering Martial Market Earth Leaderboard

As the audience celebrated the consecutive victories, a figure descended, landing in the fighting arena. Fixing a piercing gaze on Chen Fan, he exuded a palpable killing intent.

This person was none other than Muye Xiao.

An abrupt hush fell over the atmosphere as all eyes turned toward the stage in astonishment.

“Is that for real? It’s Muye Xiao!”

“He’s an expert on the Earth Leaderboard. Our Great Chu Empire’s Martial Market Earth Leaderboard only has fifty-three entries. Three months back, he secured ten consecutive victories, conceding defeat only in the eleventh match after a ten-move exchange with a mid-stage, fifth-level expert. He holds the forty-sixth spot on the leaderboard.”

“Perhaps Muye Xiao is thrilled by the hunt and wants to be that kid’s eleventh opponent?”

“I think winning ten matches consecutively is already his limit. When he fought Luo Hun earlier, the two exchanged no fewer than two hundred moves. I’m afraid he has no more primeval force and should be powerless to do battle anymore.”

“Let’s see if he’ll surrender or try to fight Muye Xiao.”

“......”

The crowd’s eyes flickered, looking forward to the two leaderboard rankers’ fight.

Having already made up his mind, Chen Fan paid no heed to Muye Xiao. Without glancing in his direction, he nonchalantly leaped off the stage. “I admit defeat.”

Even he was feeling somewhat embarrassed. After all, he had just fought ten matches with those at the fourth level while at the sixth level. Wasn’t he just bullying the weak?

Even Muye Xiao, ranked forty-sixth on the leaderboard, was no different from Luo Hun and the others in Chen Fan’s eyes. He could kill him easily with a snap of his fingers.

“He admitted defeat!”

“What a pity. I thought he’d at least try fighting Muye Xiao.”

“Clean and straightforward, not dragging his feet. It looks like he has reached his limit and knows it would be useless even if he tried fighting, perhaps even getting injured in the process.”

“Hehe, Nangong Fengyun has already recruited Muye Xiao to assist the Star Bloodline. I saw this guy earlier. He came with Nangong Wan’er. He should be helping the Moon Bloodline. Maybe he won ten matches in a row to assure Nangong Wan’er. Choosing defeat now is a prudent move; crossing swords with Muye Xiao would likely end in his death. Didn\'t you feel his chilling killing intent?”

“......”

Muye Xiao stood on stage, surprised by Chen Fan’s actions. Nangong Fengyun slammed his palm on the railings angrily, his eyes filled with killing intent.

“Damn it!”

A battle palace executive approached Chen Fan and presented him with a black iron token and a hundred thousand primeval stones.

The executive said, “Congratulations, Young Master Wang, on your ten consecutive victories. You now have the fifty-fourth spot on the Martial Market Earth Leaderboard, which is the last rank."

One could enter the Martial Market Earth Leaderboard if they won ten matches in a row. Chen Fan had surrendered to Muye Xiao’s challenge without fighting, which was why the battle palace put him in last place.

The executive placed the black iron token in Chen Fan’s hand and said, “This is the Martial Market Earth Leaderboard iron token. It represents that we, the Martial Market, acknowledge Young Master Wang’s strength. It is also the identity of a martial artist on the Martial Market Earth Leaderboard.”

Chen Fan accepted this black token. The words ‘Great Chu Empire, Earth Leaderboard 54th, Wang Dongfan’ were imprinted on it.

After examining it quickly, he put it away, not thinking about it.

Next, the executive handed Chen Fan the hundred thousand primeval stones and said, “In the Earth Class Battle Palace, martial artists with ten victories are also rewarded a hundred primeval stones. This is a primeval stone crystal card. You can go to the Martial Market in any empire or imperial court to redeem it.”

He had said that casually, but they underlined their profound foundation.

Chen Fan had suspected the Martial Market was related to the Wu Clan of the three clans and six sects. Now, he could basically confirm that it was true.

He could redeem the crystal card in the Martial Market of any empire or imperial court. One could only imagine the enormity of the Martial Markets. Ordinary martial clans could never hope to achieve things on such a grand scale.

Only an ancient clan with over ten thousand years of heritage, like the Wu Clan, had the strength and foundation to spread the Martial Market throughout the Tianwu Continent.

“Many thanks.” Chen Fan received the primeval stone crystal card. Then, he walked away and went up to the viewing stands, returning to Nangong Wan’er and Chu Xuan’er.

Chu Xuan’er immediately grew excited and ran to him. “You’re too amazing, Big Brother Dongfan. You won ten rounds! You are now on the leaderboard!”

Chen Fan tousled her head and smiled, “It’s nothing much. If you work hard, you can also enter the leaderboard in the future.”

“Congratulations, Wang Dongfan.” Nangong Wan’er also came over and congratulated him.

Chu Xuan’er said, “Sister Wan’er, I didn’t lie to you, did I? I told you Big Brother Dongfan is really strong, but you didn’t believe me. You do now, don’t you? With Big Brother Dongfan helping you, your Moon Bloodline can resolve your difficulties at the Bloodlines Martial Meet.”

“Yes, yes, yes, thank you, Sister Xuan’er.” A rare smile blossomed on Nangong Wan’er’s face.

She hadn’t expected Chen Fan to win ten matches and enter the leaderboard. So, she was pleasantly surprised.

Her bloodline’s chances of remaining as a main bloodline would increase significantly with his assistance.

“Big Brother Dongfan, what’s your ranking on the leaderboard? There were fifty-three experts before, so now it should be... fifty-four. Is that right?” Chu Xuan’er asked curiously.

Chen Fan tossed the iron token to Chu Xuan’er and said, “Look at it yourself.”

The trio left the battle palace talking and laughing, attracting envious gazes along their way.

“Damn it, that annoying little bastard surrendered!” Nangong Fengyun muttered, glaring at the trio with a mix of frustration and malice.

Muye Xiao had also returned.

Since Chen Fan had admitted defeat, he was not interested in waiting for someone to challenge him. After all, he was an expert whose name was on the Earth Leaderboard. There was simply no one in the same cultivation level who was his match.

“No need to feel disappointed, Brother Fengyun. He won’t have anywhere to run to at the Bloodlines Martial Meet. He’s destined to die. We are just letting him live for a few more days,” Muye Xiao said indifferently.

Nangong Fengyun said, “Brother Muye, this little bastard is now on the leaderboard, not to mention he’s a sword cultivator. He’s no weakling. Are you confident you can kill him at the meet?”

Muye Xiao smiled lightly. A sharp aura suddenly erupted from him as he said, “Brother Fengyun, although we are on the same leaderboard, do you really think I couldn’t fight that mid-stage, fifth-level opponent back then?”

Nangong Fengyun narrowed his eyes and laughed. “Hoho, it seems I was worried for nothing. Fine, then. We’ll let that little bastard have a few more days of fun. When the time comes, Brother Muye will kill him and shock the entire imperial city.”

If news of a ranker on the Earth Leaderboard killing another ranker spread, it would indeed shake the imperial city.

After all, being on the leaderboard meant that one’s combat strength was unrivaled in the same cultivation level, being nearly invincible.

Chen Fan and Muye Xiao were both at the fourth level. If Muye Xiao managed to kill Chen Fan, that would highlight Muye Xiao’s strength!
