Chapter 220

The battle between Xiao Yaojin and Gong Xing gave Lin Chen a judgment.

If Ye Feng were to go up, he was afraid he would not be the opponent of the other two from Zheng Guo. Just now, when Gong Xing used his Demon Race bloodline, his entire momentum was improved, and his strength also soared by a large margin.

If he didn't use his Demon Race bloodline, Ye Feng's strength should not be much different from these two, but if the other party used his Demon Race bloodline, Ye Feng would not be his opponent.

Since the other party came to provoke, it was naturally impossible to give them a chance to win.

Most importantly, with Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao's move, he also had some understanding of the strength and background of these three.

"Lin Lin Shidi Xiao, how about it?"

Xiao Yaojin looked at Lin Chen deeply. He didn't know if Lin Chen saw that his hand was injured. He nodded immediately: "Good."

In his heart, Xiao Yaojin's favor for Lin Chen increased by another point.

Lin Chen had saved face for him.

Even if he still had trump cards to defeat Gui Tianlie, doing so would expose the fact that his hand was injured.

Ye Feng, who was on the side, also felt his favor for Lin Chen rising at this moment.

Having witnessed the soaring strength of Gong Xing when he used his Demon Race bloodline, he also had no confidence in his heart that he could defeat Gui Tianlie and the other two.

In such a battle between two countries, losing was not just losing one's own face, but also giving Zheng Guo people an excuse to mock them.

"Lin Lin Shidi, be careful."

Qu Feng reminded him from the side: "Zheng Guo martial artists who have Demon Race bloodline in their bodies can increase their strength by up to 50% in the Organ Cultivation Stage."

"Hmm."

Lin Chen nodded and walked out from the front of the crowd. Gui Tianlie saw Lin Chen walk out, and there was a cold color in his eyes. As long as he defeated Lin Chen, no one would remember Gong Xing's failure. Everyone would only remember that he had defeated the Daliang Martial Way Student Exemplar.

This Lin Chen still thought he was the same as Gong Xing, then he was very wrong.

If he didn't have some trump cards, why would he specially come to Bafang City to challenge Lin Chen.

After today, the whole Daliang, including Zheng Guo, would know his name, Gui Tianlie.

"Senior Lin Lin Shidi has made a move. Now there's a good show to watch."

"Still can't underestimate the enemy. Since Gui Tianlie and these three dare to challenge Senior Lin Lin Shidi, they must be prepared."

"You are boosting others' morale and destroying your own ambition. That Gong Xing wasn't even Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao's opponent when he used his Demon Race bloodline, so he's even less likely to be Senior Lin Lin Shidi's opponent."

"You know nothing. Still need to be careful and cautious."

The martial artists watching on the side, some were excited, some were worried.

Those slightly older Organ Cultivation martial artists did not approve of Lin Chen making a move at this time. Instead, they should have let that Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao or others test the background of Gui Tianlie and Qing Dubian. Even if they lost, it would be fine. Once the other party's trump cards were figured out, Lin Lin Shidi would be able to be prepared.

"The Demon Race bloodline in Zheng Guo martial artists can only explode once for a short time. Letting others consume it is also fine. Lin Lin Shidi is still a bit young and likes to show off too much."

Beside Qu Feng, a Canglan Martial Way Academy disciple whispered. Qu Feng looked at the other party upon hearing this. That look made this Canglan Martial Way Academy disciple look confused: "Lin Lin Shixiong Qu, is there something wrong with what I said?"

"You don't understand."

Qu Feng shook his head. Lin Lin Shidi likes to show off?

Anyone at the scene might like to show off, but Lin Lin Shidi absolutely could not.

Someone who only knows how to cultivate every day is definitely not someone who likes to show off.

The punch that Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao exploded just now had already exceeded his strength. This was a secret skill-level technique. Performing such a secret skill technique would also bring harm to himself.

Lin Lin Shidi saw this point, which is why he used this as a reason to relieve Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao.

"Strong potential, strong strength, and also the demeanor of a senior brother. Our Canglan Martial Way Academy has really found a treasure this time."

Qu Feng sighed in his heart. He had seen too many geniuses. The Canglan Martial Way Academy was not without geniuses, but those senior brothers all had one common point: they were too arrogant. Other junior brothers in the academy admired these senior brothers more for their strength.

And if Lin Lin Shidi enters the academy and becomes the senior brother of the new batch of academy disciples, other junior brothers will not only admire Lin Lin Shidi's strength, but also Lin Lin Shidi's character. When all junior brothers sincerely recognize Lin Lin Shidi as their senior brother, they will also involuntarily learn from Lin Lin Shidi.

Relying on Lin Lin Shidi's diligence in martial way cultivation...

Qu Feng didn't dare to imagine how hard these new junior brothers would have to work.

Fortunately... fortunately he was one year ahead of Lin Lin Shidi.

Xiao Yaojin also moved aside at this moment, his eyes also staring tightly at Lin Chen. He had suppressed the entire Daliang in the Open-Acupuncture Stage, and now that he had reached the Organ Cultivation Stage, what would Lin Chen's strength be like?

"Is Lin Lin Shixiong Xiao worried about Lin Lin Shidi?"

Qu Feng saw Xiao Yaojin's gaze fixed on Lin Chen and asked with a smile from the side.

"Gui Tianlie and these three are not weak in strength, especially since they have Demon Race bloodline in their bodies, which gives them a natural advantage before entering the Ranked Tier. But I have confidence in Senior Lin Lin Shidi; he should be able to defeat Gui Tianlie."

Xiao Yaojin believed that Lin Chen could defeat Gui Tianlie. The only thing he was worried about was that Lin Chen would be injured like him.

Qu Feng nodded. He heard the meaning in Xiao Yaojin's words, and there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

If Lin Lin Shidi was injured, even if he won against Gui Tianlie, it would give Zheng Guo people an excuse. After all, Lin Lin Shidi was the Daliang Martial Way Student Exemplar, while Gui Tianlie was not the Zheng Guo Martial Way Student Exemplar.

"Lin Chen, I will let you know the gap between you Daliang martial artists and my Zheng Guo."

Gui Tianlie looked at Lin Chen ferociously. The clothing on his body suddenly shattered at this moment, revealing a huge wolf head totem on his chest.

That wolf head, especially those scarlet eyes, was just like the eyes of a real demon wolf, cold and terrifying.

Dealing with Lin Chen, Gui Tianlie didn't intend to probe, but was prepared to use his Demon Race bloodline from the beginning.

And unlike Gong Xing, Gong Xing could only borrow his Demon Race bloodline to increase his strength by 30%, but he could reach 40%.

Although it was only 10%, geniuses of their level had a very small gap between each other, and this 10% increase was enough to decide the outcome.

If Gong Xing could have increased his power by 40% just now, he wouldn't have lost to that person surnamed Xiao.

Lin Chen looked at the wolf head on Gui Tianlie's chest, his expression unchanged, and he didn't pay attention to Gui Tianlie's provocative words either.

"Wolf Transformation!"

Seeing Lin Chen's arrogant appearance, Gui Tianlie let out a low roar. The wolf head on his chest suddenly glowed with blood, the muscles all over his body bulged, the blue veins all over his body moved like pythons, and his entire momentum climbed steeply.

"No matter how you change, you can't change the essence of being an animal."

Witnessing the change in Gui Tianlie's beast-like appearance, Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. If this battle was in private, or if there weren't so many onlookers, he would have made a move long ago and would never have given Gui Tianlie a chance to use his Demon Race bloodline.

But this battle had so many people watching, he wanted to make Gui Tianlie lose convincingly.

Lin Chen stood like an ancient pine, and even had his hands behind his back. This appearance made Xiao Yaojin frown. Was Lin Chen being too arrogant?

The momentum Gui Tianlie exploded was even stronger than that Gong Xing. Since Lin Chen had said his strength was not below his own, and had also witnessed his battle with Gong Xing, he shouldn't be so careless.

"Go to hell."

Seeing Lin Chen with his hands behind his back, clearly despising him, Gui Tianlie roared, stepped with both feet, the blue bricks under his feet shattered, and he pounced on Lin Chen with a fishy wind, his right claw tearing the air and making a harsh whistling sound.

"Canglang Seal!"

Many young martial artists watching, at the moment Gui Tianlie clawed out, the whistling sound that tore the air made their hearts tremble, just feeling like they saw a vicious wolf pouncing.

They were just watching and felt this way, as the person involved, Senior Lin Lin Shidi, was afraid the pressure was even greater. The wolf claw arrived. Gui Tianlie saw that Lin Chen still hadn't moved, and there was joy on his face. Could it be that he was scared out of his wits by his own offensive?

Daliang Martial Way Student Exemplar, nothing more than this!

However, at the next moment, Gui Tianlie only felt a blur before his eyes, an afterimage flashed before his eyes, and Lin Chen's figure had already disappeared in front of him.

"Not good!"

Gui Tianlie's expression changed greatly. However, before he could make a move, he felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder. Lin Chen had actually appeared on his right side, and his right palm had landed precisely on his shoulder.

Crack!

The blood in Gui Tianlie's body was like being frozen at this moment. The scarlet eyes of the wolf head on his chest became dim in an instant. He only felt a terrifying force pouring into his body, and the demon power accumulated in his dantian was actually shaken away by this force, and his knees knelt uncontrollably to the ground.

The wharf was suddenly silent at this moment, only the sound of Lin Chen's clothes fluttering when he retracted his palm could be heard clearly.

On the third floor of the inn not far away, the young girl tapped the window lattice with her fingertips. Because of shock, she didn't even notice that her fingernails had subconsciously penetrated the window lattice by three points.

A brilliant gleam erupted in Xiao Yaojin's eyes, staring at Lin Chen's back with disbelief.

So strong?

Lin Chen glanced at the blood from Gui Tianlie's shoulder that had splashed onto the corner of his clothes, and said helplessly: "I didn't expect to get my clothes dirty after all."

When these words came out, the many youths watching reacted, and the next moment erupted in cheers like a mountain and a sea.

"Senior Lin Lin Shidi is mighty!"

"What Zheng Guo genius, they are not worth looking at in front of Senior Lin Lin Shidi at all."

"Worthy of being Senior Lin Lin Shidi, what a line about the corner of the clothes being slightly dirty!"

"I have a premonition that this sentence of Senior Lin Lin Shidi will become popular; it feels so good to hear."

The youths present never thought Lin Chen would lose, but they also didn't expect Lin Chen to win so easily and neatly.

Many of them didn't even see how Lin Chen made his move, only seeing Gui Tianlie rushing over aggressively, and then kneeling in front of Senior Lin Lin Shidi.

"I once heard my elders say that Zheng Guo people like to kneel. When they meet someone stronger than themselves, they kneel down at every turn. I originally thought my elders were exaggerating, but now it seems it's really like this."

"Zheng Guo people are good at kneeling!"

The youths' sharp words came one after another. Lin Chen defeating the enemy in one move made them feel very relieved.

"If it weren't for the fact that these people have some background in Zheng Guo, I would have suspected if they were acting with Senior Lin Lin Shidi. It's really... kneeling too fast."

Acting, naturally, was impossible.

These words were an insult!

"That's not right. Who said just now that Senior Lin Lin Shidi's discernment is very strong?"

Someone suddenly recalled the discussion everyone had earlier, but as soon as he said this, he was slapped on the back of the head by an older martial artist beside him.

The youth was hit, his face had an angry look. When he turned back to see who made the move, his anger disappeared instantly.

He was only Open-Acupuncture, and this person was clearly an Organ Cultivation martial artist. He couldn't afford to offend him.

"This senior brother, why did you hit me?"

"Hitting you is because you have no discernment. Look at the other junior brothers around you. Do you think you deserve to be hit?"

The youth looked around and found that the people around him were nodding in agreement.

Deserved to be hit!

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lin Chen's previous sentence, that Lin Lin Shidi Xiao's strength was not below his own, was a modest remark.

It was just that that Lin Lin Shidi Xiao was also one of their own. Mentioning this at this time was not making that Lin Lin Shidi Xiao embarrassed?

Not even having this bit of discernment, wasn't it just asking for a beating.

Didn't see that the one who was so certain earlier had now stopped talking.

Jiang Guang felt the strange eyes of the people around him, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He now completely recalled.

The original words of that junior brother were: Senior Lin Lin Shidi is very modest. Once he says the other party's strength is not below his own, it means Senior Lin Lin Shidi can slap the other party away with one palm.

It was just that if he explained now, would he be slapped to the ground by the people around him one by one.

Xiao Yaojin also heard the discussion of the people around him. Although it disappeared quickly, people were most sensitive to things about themselves, and his face was slightly red at this moment.

So, the strength Lin Chen said was not below his own meant it was not above his own.

Gui Tianlie stood up from the ground with difficulty. However, the moment he stood up, Lin Chen moved.

Slap!

This palm hit Gui Tianlie's chest. Gui Tianlie spat out a mouthful of blood, and his person flew backward just like Gong Xing.

"Despicable!"

Qing Dubian, the only one still standing intact, saw Lin Chen still making a move on Gui Tianlie, and looked at Lin Chen with an angry face.

"Martial way sparring, if one side hasn't admitted defeat, it means the sparring hasn't ended. Could it be that your Zheng Guo doesn't have such rules?"

Lin Chen coldly swept his eyes over Qing Dubian: "Gui Tianlie hasn't fainted and can still speak. If he doesn't admit defeat, I'll take it that he wants to continue. What's wrong with making a move?"

A rhetorical question left Qing Dubian speechless instantly.

"Senior Lin Lin Shidi is right!"

"It was that Gui-something-Tian who didn't admit defeat himself. Senior Lin Lin Shidi making a move is nothing more than normal."

Lin Chen didn't even need to refute. The Daliang youths watching, one sentence each with saliva, could drown Qing Dubian.

"Good, this time I count it as you winning."

Qing Dubian no longer had the courage to make a move. Even Gui Tianlie had failed, so he was even less likely to be Lin Chen's opponent.

However, he didn't make a move, so it didn't count as a defeat, keeping his face for himself.

Unfortunately, his calculations were too good.

"If you want to fight, you fight; if you want to leave, you leave. How can there be such a good thing in the world."

Lin Chen stepped out: "If you want to leave, then leave lying down together."

Wind and Cloud Palm, Palm Six!

Qing Dubian didn't expect that Lin Chen actually didn't intend to let him go. Feeling that terrifying palm wind, he immediately looked in a direction in the crowd, where a middle-aged man was standing.

"Uncle Qing, save me!"

However, the middle-aged man in the crowd didn't move at all.

It wasn't that he didn't want to save the young master, but that he couldn't.

Just at that moment, he felt an aura lock onto him. If he dared to make any unusual movements, the owner of this aura would not hesitate to launch a sharp attack on him.

Being able to lock onto him from a distance, the owner of this aura was at least a Mid-Rank martial artist.

"Acting recklessly in my Bafang City, do you really think I, the City Lord of Bafang City, don't exist."

Above the city wall, at an angle no one could see, a man stood there, his eyes showing some disdain. However, when his gaze fell on Lin Chen, a smile appeared on his face again.

"The academy has truly recruited a good seedling this time. Worthy of being a genius who left his name on Mount Wudao seven times, very good."
