The Medallion

However, out of nowhere, the approaching purple sword aura dissipated, as well as the spiritual pressure that made Jude feel like he was running out of breath.

After regaining his senses, Jude turned to Rocky in astonishment. He did not expect that his opponent would suddenly stop attacking him when it could be his immediate way of winning the match.

"Jude, how about we stop here so that we can prepare for our next battle?" Rocky suddenly said with a calm face.

When Jude heard this, he immediately knew that Rocky was actually teasing him by using his own words that he uttered at the beginning of the match. However, he also knew that Rocky was being serious. He could only assume that Rocky was much stronger than what he had already displayed in their fight. After all, he saw how Rocky was able to easily manipulate such overwhelming spiritual power. Therefore, if he chose to be stubborn and continue to fight, he might just end up in a terrible condition.

So, after thinking for a while, Jude finally put away his sword.

At the same time, since the spectators had no idea what really was going on, they thought that based on Rocky's words just now, he was actually the one who was ready to admit defeat. They even thought that it was reasonable enough because Jude was supposed to be more powerful than him.

"Well, it is indeed true that there will always be someone stronger out there. I learned how powerful you are, as well as your sword skills. It is my fault that I underestimated you. Therefore, I hereby admit my defeat!" Jude said without hesitation, cupping his hands towards Rocky.

Immediately after, the people were stunned at the sudden turn of events. They were so confused that Jude was the one forfeiting in the match.

From what they saw, with Jude's great power, he could easily hurt Rocky whenever he wanted.

"What happened? Why is he admitting defeat when he clearly had the upper hand?"

"I don't know. Did we miss something? I also thought that Jude was winning the match!"

In an instant, the confused onlookers caused a huge commotion.

They could not believe that Jude lost the match by admitting defeat.
