Chapter 2096: New rules of the compet.i.tion

Translator: 549690339

“Greetings, patriarchs and sect leaders!” Han Tianba cupped his fists and saluted according to the rules of the martial arts world.

“Old master han, come and sit. We’re all waiting for you!” Old master Zhao smiled and pretended to be friendly.

Since han Tianba was already there, he wasn’t afraid and sat down on an empty seat.

“Alright, since the old head is here, we can start the Hidden House Summit!” Zhao Yu’s father nodded and said,””As you all know, the Hidden House Summit is for the disciples of each house to get a chance to go to the test, and also to encourage them to work hard and get better results, so I won’t go into any unnecessary details!”

“Haha, that’s right, it’s not even the old head’s first time at the summit, so there’s no need to introduce us. Let’s talk about the rules and items of this hidden house Summit, shall we?” Old master you said in agreement.

“That’s right. There were some loopholes in the rules of the last Summit. The Hidden House han forfeited every match and didn’t partic.i.p.ate. That’s not right. If every hidden house doesn’t partic.i.p.ate, then what’s the point of this test?” Old Zhao said.

Han Tianba laughed coldly in his heart. He’d already received the information that this hidden house Summit was targeting his family, so he naturally knew the rules beforehand.

“That’s right. However, in the last Summit, the hidden han family was a newbie, so we’ll just observe them. We can’t do this again this time!” Elder Tang chimed in.

“Therefore, we’ve discussed the rules for this term and made some minor changes!” Old Zhao said,”that is, every family and sect must partic.i.p.ate in every compet.i.tion. Even if they give up, they must place a bet. This way, we can prevent people from betting on the events that they are good at, which will cause the compet.i.tion to be unfair!”

Fair? Old Mr. Han thought to himself, your rule sounds fair, but to the hidden han family, it’s the biggest injustice!

“That’s right. Rules are only fair if they are constantly perfected!” Old master Zhuang nodded in agreement.

“For this compet.i.tion, everyone has to place a bet regardless of whether they sign up or not. Even if they forfeit, they still have to place a bet!” “I’ll explain the rules of the compet.i.tion in detail!”Zhao Yu said.

“Alright, we’re all ears!” Old man Pi said.

Han Tianba felt that these people were hypocritical, but fortunately, Lin Yi was here to help. Otherwise, he would’ve been p.i.s.sed to death.

“For every match, each family will take out a treasure as a bet. Whether you partic.i.p.ate or forfeit, you must place a bet!” “The winner of each match will be able to get everything other than the second and third place wagers. The second and third place winners will be able to retrieve their family items after the match!

As for the first place, he had the right to make an exchange. For example, if he saw something that he liked in the second or third place, he could use any item in the bet to exchange with the second or third place, and the second and third place could not refuse!

The second-ranked person also had the right to exchange, but they could only forcefully exchange for the items of the third-ranked person. They could not forcefully exchange for the items of the first-ranked person. Of course, if the first-ranked person agreed, the exchange could also be done!

The third-place winner didn’t have the right to exchange, but if the second and third-place winners agreed, they could also exchange one-on-one.

The other families that were not in the top rankings and those that had forfeited the bet did not have the right to redeem or exchange the stakes!

Of course, if all the families forfeit, or if all the families who didn’t forfeit lose the compet.i.tion, then each family will take back their own things and the compet.i.tion will be invalid!”

The rule was simple. After old master Zhao explained it, everyone understood. To put it bluntly, everyone was working together to set up the Han family. There was nothing strange about it. This rule was created by everyone except han Tianba.

As for han Tianba himself, he had also heard about it from other channels. When he heard it now, he only gave more details and an explanation of the second and third place.

“Everyone, do you have any objections to this rule?” Old master Zhao asked.

Han Tianba was a little speechless. ‘These rules were set by all of you. What opinions do you have?’ Even if I have an opinion, will you accept it if I raise it?

“Alright, since there are no objections, let’s move on to the first race, the car race!” Old Zhao looked at han Tianba’s sullen face and felt very good. He thought that they had some confidence with Lin Yi, but it seemed like that was all there was to it!

That Lin Yi may be strong, but he might not be that strong in a compet.i.tion like this!

“En, it’s originally a trial for the disciples of each family, so we old guys shouldn’t waste time!” “Since it’s a compet.i.tion to motivate the disciples, let’s start now!” The old man said.

“Of course, elder Yu is a respected man, no one has any objections, right?” Old master Zhao asked.

Since the elder of house Yu had spoken, no one else dared to object.

“Alright, since there are no objections, everyone go back and prepare. Bring the partic.i.p.ating disciples and the wagers. We’ll gather in the meeting hall at 1 p.m. Then we’ll go to the mountain road behind the Zhao family’s house for the car race!” Old Zhao said.

After old master Zhao finished speaking, the other old masters and sect leaders all left and returned to their temporary residences to prepare for the compet.i.tion in the afternoon!

Although the first place had already been decided, the second and third places had not been decided. Therefore, those families who had not decided on the first place were all thinking about whether they could win the second or third place. At the very least, they could keep their bets and not lose money!

In other words, even though these hidden houses and sects had all agreed to destroy the Hidden House han, they were still competing internally. Whoever got the most second and third place would be the biggest winner!

When han Tianba returned to his residence, han xiaopo immediately stood up and greeted him.”Grandpa, how is it?”

“Just as we expected, the rules of the compet.i.tion are similar to what we inquired about in advance. Even if you forfeit, you have to place a bet!” “It’s a good thing we prepared in advance,”said han Tianba,” and Mr. Lin helped us. Otherwise, we’d have lost miserably this time!”

“As expected!” Han xiaopo nodded and said,”when does the first match start?” Which one?”

“Oneo’ clock in the afternoon. Gather in the meeting hall. The event is car racing!” “Let’s go together in the afternoon,”said han Tianba.”We’ll bring a treasure with us!”
