Chapter 1279 - 1282: Ninth Grade Showdown!

After those female trainees, a group of people ran over one after another!

Roughly fifty people stood behind the Ghost, both men and women, with women making up seventy percent of the numbers, clearly showing how the Ghost's earlier words were extremely persuasive to these female trainees present.

"What are those guys I brought here thinking? Hurry the hell up and come over, don't wait for me to destroy you later!" Yun Hao saw some familiar faces behind the Soul Refining and shouted loudly, arms akimbo.

"Instructor S, we also want to go to your side, but can you beat the Soul Refining master?" Those guys Yun Hao brought looked at each other after hearing Yun Hao's words, then walked to Yun Hao's side with a bitter expression.

"What nonsense? Since the day I brought you, have you ever seen me being cowardly? Have you ever seen me not keep my word?"

Yun Hao glared, domineeringly staring at the trainees he taught.

As Yun Hao's words fell, those who came over walked behind Yun Hao.

In an instant, only a dozen members remained behind the Soul Refining, all others joined behind Yun Hao, deciding to fight together with him.

Those still behind Soul Refining were also hesitant in their hearts, but they were gambling!

They bet that Soul Refining could defeat Yun Hao, and if that happened, their loyalty would earn them Soul Refining's favor, making them the core elements.

After all, the Soul Refining Training Camp isn't limited to just these people here; there are hundreds of branches worldwide, and even if they don't seek a good position at the headquarters,

they believe they would become a leader of one of the branches, becoming a hero!

But those who chose Yun Hao and the Ghost were gambling as well, weren't they?

They were also betting that Yun Hao could defeat Soul Refining, and kill this heartless guy, as they said, living without dignity anyway, it's better to risk it all for one chance!

All of a sudden, the field split into two camps again; one was Soul Refining and the trainees still choosing him.

The other was Yun Hao, along with the Ghost and others standing behind him.

Soul Refining was arrogant; while these trainees gradually chose Yun Hao and the Ghost, he said nothing, didn't even attempt to stop them, because he was disdainful. In his eyes, as long as his strength was strong enough, others were mere decorations.

Moreover, in Soul Refining's heart, those who disobeyed or dared to betray him weren't worthy of following him. This was a great opportunity to see who would betray him and who would stay loyal.

Yun Hao was equally proud; it was evident from how he disdained forming an alliance with Ding Da.

"Back off!"

Yun Hao softly instructed Chu Yan and the others behind him, then stepped forward alone, silently staring at Soul Refining across him.

Seeing Yun Hao step out, Soul Refining naturally stepped forward too, but he didn't instruct his followers to back off, because their lives didn't concern him, even if they chose to continue following him.

"You didn't disappoint me, after betraying the organization these past dozen years, you've cultivated to the Ninth Grade realm, a rare genius indeed. Even among the many sects of the Upper Realm, your talent is outstanding!"

Soul Refining spoke with his hands behind his back, looking at Yun Hao and faintly praised, carrying a hint of admiration.

"Of course, I'm always invincible. A mere Ninth Grade, cultivating it is easy peasy, unlike you, taking decades to reach the Ninth Grade middle stage, truly... a failure!"

Yun Hao gently shook his head, relentlessly mocking Soul Refining.

"Indeed, compared to your talent, mine is quite poor, after so many years of cultivation, only reaching the Ninth Grade middle stage. But I believe dealing with you should be enough, although I can't tell which stage of Ninth Grade you are at now, I don't believe you've reached the Ninth Grade middle stage, or even late stage!

You... are at most just early stage Ninth Grade!"

Facing Yun Hao's mockery, Soul Refining first acknowledged with a smile, then his eyes turned cold, his voice stern.

"Emma, you're really clever, guessing I'm at the early stage of Ninth Grade, amazing, truly amazing!"

Hearing Soul Refining's words, Yun Hao applauded lightly, pretending to be very scared and impressed.

People around listened to Yun Hao and Soul Refining's dialogue, almost having their hearts burst.

Damn, both of them reaching the Ninth Grade realm!

Holy crap...

Since when is the Ninth Grade realm so easily attainable?

Since when are Ninth Grade masters so common, simply having two appear before them, it's damn startling?

Moreover, in the hearts of the two factions, there were different thoughts at this moment.

Those standing behind Soul Refining were secretly delighted, Soul Refining was at the Ninth Grade middle stage, Yun Hao was just early stage, meaning Soul Refining was obviously stronger.

This implies that when Yun Hao and Soul Refining fight soon, Soul Refining will surely win, thus they made the most correct decision.

Whereas those behind Yun Hao and the Ghost had bitter faces, why did the decision they made with great determination end up being the wrong one?

Why is this?

Are they really doomed?

Why is fate being so unfair to them?

"If you regret now, you can still choose to come back to my side. I can pretend none of this happened, after all, you were deceived by the Ghost and Yun Hao!"

Soul Refining also noticed the change in these people's expressions, smiling as he spoke.

Though he doesn't care about their choices, it provides an opportunity to crush Yun Hao's spirit before killing him, which isn't a bad thing.

The most crucial point was that several of his favorite female trainees also chose to follow the Ghost against him, which was intolerable.

After all, given a choice, of course, he'd choose those with curves and attractive appearances!

Indeed, after hearing Soul Refining's words, many began to waver again, hesitated, then quickly ran back to Soul Refining's side.
