Qin Zhen and Kou Fa both had successfully made their breakthrough and become Martial Arts Masters!
One was thirty-one, and the other sixty-one, a thirty-year difference, so Qin Zhen's prospects were definitely higher than Kou Fa's.
Yet, Qin Zhen wasn't as joyful as Kou Fa because he ultimately failed to ascend the Fengyun Leaderboard.
This challenge against Kou Fa, Qin Zhen hoped he could defeat his opponent before making his breakthrough, so that he might successfully claim a spot on the Fengyun Leaderboard.
Unfortunately, he fell short.
At the end of the battle, both knew that unless they fought to the death, it was hard to decide the winner, so they chose to make their breakthrough together.
Qin Zhen still couldn't defeat those on the Fengyun Leaderboard and broke through to the next realm as a candidate, thus missing his chance to ever be on the Fengyun Leaderboard.
Moreover, there would no longer be a similar leaderboard for him to "strive for fame" on.
