Chapter 140: Lin Chaoyang Gets a Bye, Luck Explodes!

"Swish, swish—"

Sword Qi swept across, slashing a peak off a distant Dragon Island mountain; the rumbling sound continued, and the astonishing commotion left everyone present with expressions of astonishment.

This sword move looked ordinary, yet it revealed a thick murderous intent.

At the same time, Tai Yun suddenly clutched his neck, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

"You..."

Tai Yun could no longer speak; blood spilled from his mouth, and the hand clutching his neck was also stained with blood.

His whole body stiffened, and he fell straight down from the sky.

Once he hit the ground, dust rose; when the smoke cleared, everyone saw only his head and body separated.

"Dead... dead?"

"That's an elder of the Tai'a Gate! A He Dao Realm Seventh Layer expert!"

"Just like that, killed?"

All forces were shocked, but their gazes fell on Lin Feng.

In the sunlight, Lin Feng put away the Tianhong Sword and said with some regret: "I still had five swords I hadn't demonstrated; you died so quickly, it makes me seem stingy for hiding them and not letting you see."

Then Lin Feng looked at the others present.

"Is there anyone else willing to let me demonstrate my sword moves to prove that my Lin Family did not steal the sword technique?"

Once these words were spoken, all forces actually retreated half a step in unison.

Every face hid a hint of terror.

The three juniors of the Lin Family were killing gods, and this Lin Family Clan Leader was even more of a killing god among killing gods!

He didn't play games; he killed when he said he would, even if it was a Tai'a Gate elder, so what?

So what if it was the number one force of the Four Great Strong Prefectures?

On the ground, Elder Tai Yun died with his eyes wide open, his head rolling who knew where.

Now, who would dare to provoke the Lin Family?

"Clap, clap, clap..."

On the Golden Dragon Boat, the Crown Prince was the first to applaud, his eyes filled with praise.

"A good Lin Family sword technique. I think the Tai'a Gate has been closed off for too long, not knowing that my Daqian Dynasty has such a sharp sword. I think their title of the number one sword sect should be given to the Lin Family!"

The Crown Prince's words pushed the Lin Family to a high position.

The Lin Family's sword was stronger than the Tai'a Gate's sword!

The Eight Great Families and the other three major sects all fell silent.

Now, no one would think the Lin Family was weak; just the sword strength Lin Feng had displayed was enough to make everyone shut their mouths sensibly.

"The Heaven's Pride Grand Meeting continues. This time, I hope no one disrupts the progress of the meeting."

The Crown Prince looked around with a smile; the meaning in his words was very clear.

Tai Yun's interruption just now had made him very unhappy.

Lin Dingtian, who had originally intended to come out, withdrew his steps and watched quietly.

Lin Feng also returned to the Leiling Province area and looked quietly at the empty arena.

Only, the gazes many people cast at him were filled with wariness.

Those forces that still wanted to find trouble for the Lin Family were afraid they would never dare to act rashly again.

"One hundred and thirty-seven people passed; according to the rules, I will issue the Dao Entry Pills, but that will be after the Heaven's Pride Grand Meeting ends."

"Now, start drawing lots. Those who draw the same number will be paired up to compete for the top ten."

"Because there is one extra person, someone will draw a bye in this round."

The Crown Prince waved his hand, and then the Black Armor Army sent over wooden boxes; the one hundred and thirty-seven people on the arena all began to draw their opponents.

"Lin Ya, who did you draw?"

The few juniors of the Lin Family gathered together; Lin Ya reached out and unfolded his lot, and the jade token he drew had the number two carved on it.

Just then, Xiao Zhen, who had advanced through the Heaven's Pride Ranking, sneezed; he looked at the jade token in his hand and felt a sudden panic.

He had drawn number two.

"Brother Lin Yan, what about you?"

Lin Xuan looked at Lin Yan; Lin Yan had drawn number thirteen.

Lin Xuan herself had drawn number five.

There was nothing special about the numbers; the numbers they drew would be drawn by others, and they would be paired up.

It was just that the Lin Family's numbers were relatively early, so they should appear first.

"Brother Chaoyang, what about you?" The Lin Family's Three Heroes looked at Lin Chaoyang.

"Me? I drew number one."

Lin Chaoyang waved his hand; his expression changed slightly. Appearing first, he truly didn't know what kind of opponent he would face.

Just then, the Crown Prince suddenly announced to everyone: "Those who drew the number one jade token, step forward."

Lin Chaoyang smiled bitterly and walked out directly.

But strangely, no one walked out with him.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

Could it be...

"Kid, you are truly lucky. You drew a bye this round and advance directly to the next round."

The Crown Prince looked at Lin Chaoyang playfully.

He remembered that in the first round, Lin Chaoyang's luck had exploded, and he had landed and carved his name on the Heaven's Pride Ranking.

He didn't expect him to draw a bye again now.

Heaven and Earth are my witness, the Crown Prince absolutely did not manipulate anything; this was all due to Lin Chaoyang's good luck.

"A... a bye? Hahaha! I advanced directly!"

Lin Chaoyang cried with joy and laughed loudly as he returned to Lin Feng's side.

Many forces cast gazes over.

People couldn't be lucky forever, right?

Lin Chaoyang had advanced directly twice in a row; was this guy a Son of Fortune?

Only Lin Feng had a headache.

In this Heaven's Pride Grand Meeting, the system would issue rewards based on ratings; Lin Xuan and Lin Ya's ratings had already reached the highest level, and although Lin Yan hadn't yet, he would definitely be able to do so next.

But only Lin Chaoyang—this guy was truly lucky.

But precisely because he was lucky, he didn't have a system rating...

"Clan Leader, I advanced, aren't you happy?" Lin Chaoyang asked, looking puzzled.

"No, I am very happy."

Lin Feng smiled awkwardly, feeling helpless in his heart.

Soon, on the arena, the person called number two by the Crown Prince appeared; Lin Ya stepped out and stood in the center of the arena.

Xiao Zhen of the Xiao Family walked out; he smiled bitterly—why did he have to draw Lin Ya?

The monsters of the Lin Family, none of them were easy to provoke.

If he had drawn someone from another province, perhaps he could have fought, but drawing Lin Ya was like directly announcing the outcome.

Xiao Xuanming sighed; he looked at Xiao Zhen and gave him a look.

Xiao Zhen bowed to Lin Ya and said: "Brother Lin Ya, I concede."

The Black Armor Army responsible for maintaining order immediately stepped forward to separate the two and escorted Xiao Zhen back to the Leiling Province area.

The Crown Prince threw out a pill, which was steadily caught by Xiao Xuanming of the Xiao Family.

"Thank you, Crown Prince, for the reward." Xiao Xuanming said excitedly.

No matter what, the Xiao Family had profited this time; not only did they preserve a seed, but they also obtained a Dao Entry Pill.

For the Xiao Family, and even Leiling Province, this was a major step forward.

One had to know that in the past, Leiling Province had never had anyone return alive.

The Lin Family had two people appear, one advanced by a bye, and the other had the opponent concede and surrender, easily locking in two advancement spots, which made all sides envious.

Luck is also a part of strength.

By the second round of the Life-and-Death arena, although it was still life and death, the arena was after all an arena; conceding meant one could save their life.

Before long, it was the fifth match.

Lin Xuan took the lead.

"Who is it? Come and spar with this young lady!" ===== CHAPTER 141 =====
