Chapter 2827: Xiao Fan Forfeits?

"Pfft…"

That person was no match and was blasted off the Arena by a single punch from Xiao Fan, coughing up a mouthful of blood, his aura withering.

"You concede…" Xiao Fan cupped his fists and said indifferently, then stepped off the Arena.

The other opponents looked at Xiao Fan with even more wariness; this person was very strong… terrifyingly strong!

If Xiao Fan hadn't intended to hide his true abilities and wanted to keep a low profile, that person would have been defeated long ago, and he wouldn't have needed to waste effort tangling with him.

The matches continued one after another, and soon Xiao Fan encountered his next opponent.

This person was named… Long Shi, Nirvana Realm Level 9.

He was also the number one Prodigy in the First Grotto-Heaven, the one with the highest Realm.

Xiao Fan immediately chose to forfeit, an action that made Long Shi quite unhappy… but he didn't say much else.

After all, besides Xiao Fan, others who encountered Long Shi basically all forfeited as well.

There was no other way; Long Shi's strength was too much of a Prodigy, and they had no other way to handle it if they didn't forfeit.

As for Xiao Fan, he didn't take Long Shi seriously at all; the opponent was strong… but Xiao Fan didn't care, he just wanted to control his points.

If Xiao Fan killed Long Shi, it would definitely be exposed.

Soon, three days passed… the matches were still ongoing.

Xiao Fan's points were not high, but they weren't low either… Xiao Fan secretly observed his future opponents.

He wanted to control his score to a level that wouldn't attract attention.

Xiao Fan felt that ninth place was just fine…

Consequently, Xiao Fan won his next two matches, and his score remained between seventh and eighth place.

Xiao Fan had been very stable in this ranking; he was worried about accidents, so he was constantly controlling it.

Xiao Fan planned to see how things went and lose the last match; that way, he would most likely be able to secure ninth place.

Gradually, the matches came to an end…

Long Shi lived up to expectations, his ranking remained near the top…

Besides Long Shi, other highly anticipated Genius Prodigies also had rankings near the top.

"Alright, next match… Long Aotian, Long Bai."

The Elder in charge of presiding slowly spoke.

Xiao Fan's expression was indifferent. He had observed earlier that he hadn't fought Long Bai yet, so the chance of them meeting was high.

As for Long Bai, his face was ashen at this moment… his current ranking was 11th.

He had no more matches left after this.

If he fought Xiao Fan and lost, his ranking would drop… then his hope of entering the top ten would definitely be lost.

So, Long Bai had to win this match to have a chance.

But Long Bai knew very well that he was simply no match for Xiao Fan… he had already lost to Xiao Fan when they fought before.

After seeing Xiao Fan's performance in many matches just now, Long Bai had even less confidence in being able to defeat Xiao Fan.

"Brother Long Bai." Xiao Fan cupped his fists, his expression indifferent.

Previously, Long Bai had kindly shown Xiao Fan the way… although the two had fought, Xiao Fan didn't hold any grudges against him at all; on the contrary, he felt this person was decent.

"We meet again." Long Bai's face was ashen as he spoke slowly.

If he could, he really didn't want to be opponents with Xiao Fan.

But now, Long Bai had no choice but to grit his teeth and go up.

"Indeed… we meet again." Xiao Fan nodded with a smile, his expression indifferent.

"Come on!" Long Bai exhaled, Battle Intent emerging, intending to fight Xiao Fan with all his might.

The onlookers nearby watched carefully… there weren't many matches left.

If Long Bai lost, his hope of entering the top ten would definitely be lost.

But would Long Bai be a match for Xiao Fan?

In the eyes of the many onlookers, he likely wouldn't be…

And the result…

"I concede." Xiao Fan said indifferently, looking at the Elder of this Arena, he chose to forfeit.

Long Bai: "?????? "

The crowd nearby: "????? "

Long Aotian forfeits?

Has he gone mad?

"This… did I hear wrong? Long Aotian forfeited?"

"Yeah… I heard it too, he forfeited!"

"Has he gone mad… Long Bai's strength isn't strong!"

"Isn't that right, why did he have to forfeit?"

"I don't know…"

"…"

The crowd nearby was astonished, none of them knew why Long Aotian wanted to forfeit.

"You… why?" Long Bai was also greatly shocked; he never expected that Long Aotian would forfeit.

"Hehehe… it's nothing…" Xiao Fan said indifferently, turning to step off the Arena.

Long Bai stood alone in the Arena in a daze, and only after his victory was announced did he step off the Arena.

And Long Bai's ranking also rose to tenth!

If he was lucky afterwards, Long Bai would be able to maintain the tenth position.

After Long Bai stepped off the Arena, his gaze towards Xiao Fan was full of gratitude… he thought Xiao Fan was expressing goodwill.

He treated him, Long Bai, as a friend.

Long Bai was excited inside, planning to properly thank Long Aotian later.
