Chapter 273: Chapter 282: Duel Challenge to Ying Tianchou (Part 1)
"Seeing your expression, I know you’re lying without any sincerity," Luo Lin pouted and said.
"I’m telling the truth though. I didn’t expect you actually comprehended the Wind Elent; that’s what surprised
the most. Also, the fact that you can use Martial Skill with a two-handed sword is very attention-grabbing. Er Mu, I didn’t think you were such a hidden expert!" Chu Linfeng laughed and said.
"Brother Long is right. The Martial Skill you demonstrated just now really startled us. We didn’t expect a little girl to be so powerful. Respect, respect!" Wei Qun chid in.
"You know my identity?" Luo Lin imdiately asked upon hearing Wei Qun’s words.
"We don’t know your identity, but we know you’re disguised as a man. We knew it the mont you entered the restaurant, but just didn’t say it. It’s truly remarkable for a girl to have such strength. Er Mu, what’s your real na?" Chu Linfeng inquired.
"Wanting to know my na is not that easy unless you agree to do sothing for !" Luo Lin said with a smile.
"Forget it; we don’t like prying into your real na. Er Mu is just fine, don’t you think?" Wei Qun said with a smile.
"Hehe, Er Mu. Er Mu is just a way of writing the character Lin. Since you’re a girl, there should be a royal character in front of it, aning your real na is actually Luo Lin." Chu Linfeng said.
Luo Lin didn’t expect Chu Linfeng to guess her na and was greatly impressed by his intelligence, but she didn’t admit it verbally. "I won’t tell you. Wait until you agree to do
a favor," she said.
"Stubborn as a mule! Just give it up! We won’t fall for it!" Wei Qun said nonchalantly.
Luo Lin was about to retort when Luo Ping’s voice echoed from above, "The second round has now ended, and the results you’ve been waiting for are out.
Those who lasted for forty seconds passed smoothly; the rest were directly eliminated. This ti, over five hundred people are left, ready for the final round."
Luo Ping paused here, as many people had already started feeling indignant, their faces full of disappointnt and dejection.
More than three thousand people were eliminated all at once, which was a reality many couldn’t accept. So who were powerful felt regretful for holding back to avoid injuries from the Rebound Force.
Wei Qun, however, was beaming with joy, "Brother Long, I passed the round. Did you hear? I actually got through it."
Chu Linfeng, seeing Wei Qun’s excitent, understood his current feelings well. Partly, it was due to successfully entering the next round, and partly because he could continue to be with him.
"Don’t be too happy too soon. You still have another round to go. Rember not to be arrogant or complacent; unexpected events can cause a sudden change, leaving you unprepared," Chu Linfeng said calmly.
At this mont, two Royal Guards ca before everyone, and Luo Ping slowly walked over, his golden armor shining brightly under the scorching sun.
"I know many find this hard to accept, but it is what it is. The Celestial Dragon Empire needs only the strong. You’re still young and have ti to serve the Empire; there’s always next ti.
The top ten from the second round have erged, and I know you’ve been waiting for this mont for a long ti. Now, I’ll announce the nas to co up and receive their rewards."
Luo Ping then called out seven numbers, leaving three numbers uncalled, to heighten everyone’s anticipation.
After the seven received their Star Stones, he said, "The most exciting mont has arrived. Now, I announce the third place."
He then called out Luo Lin’s number, and everyone felt surprised movingly that Luo Lin managed to get third place, like an unbelievable dark horse.
The remaining first and second places were widely believed to belong to Chu Linfeng and Ying Tianchou, but who was exactly the first remained unknown.
"Due to the exceptional results this ti, there are two tied performances. I believe everyone knows who they are, the first and second-place holders of the first round.
Since Zhao Long, currently at the Earth Martial Realm, achieved such results, he should be the first, while Ying Tianchou of the Second Level of Celestial Martial Realm could only be second. I believe everyone understands the reason, as there’s a huge disparity between the Earth Martial Realm and Celestial Martial Realm."
This result was actually the fairest, but Ying Tianchou instantly shouted out, "I’m not convinced. Why should he be first? If he truly possesses such strength, why not have a life and death duel with ?"
Ying Tianchou’s words imdiately garnered support from many who wished for a showdown between Chu Linfeng and him.
However, Chu Linfeng stepped forward then and said, "Since you like being first so much, then you can have it. I don’t care for it. For those who want to challenge him, feel free to do so; I have no ti for such things."
Chu Linfeng’s words imdiately drew dissatisfaction from many, as it seed too arrogant to refer to himself as ’young master’ in front of a reckless young man like Ying Tianchou, as if courting death.
"Let ? You arrogant fool think I’d accept your concession? If you’re a man, duel with . Of course, if you think you’re a coward, I might let you off!" Ying Tianchou shouted with an arrogant swagger.
"Enough! Ying Tianchou, this is a drill ground, don’t bring your rogue temper here, or I’ll show you no rcy," Luo Ping, who had had enough, yelled out.
"Grand General Luo, your unfairness naturally I reject. Even if I report it to my father, I believe I’m justified. I’ll not rest today without a fight against that kid," Ying Tianchou shouted defiantly.
"Hehe, so people are truly shaless. A Celestial Martial Realm expert bullying , who’s only at the Eighth Level of Earth Martial Realm, yet speaking so righteously, if it were , I’d be too afraid to stand here, even ghosts would be scared!" Chu Linfeng said at this point, thinking that soone like Ying Tianchou needs to be provoked to let Luo Ping punish him hard.
Ying Tianchou wished to slay Chu Linfeng imdiately, but Luo Ping was present. "Kid, your arrogance won’t last a few days; let’s see then,"
Ying Tianchou finished, turned, and left. Winners of both the first and second rounds automatically advanced if placing within the top three, so Luo Ping didn’t say much about Ying Tianchou’s leaving, possibly out of respect for his pri minister father.
"Zhao Long, rest assured that no one dares to cause trouble before
in the Imperial City, even the son of the current Pri Minister. Stay here in the drill ground for the next few days to avoid unnecessary trouble," Luo Ping said.
"Thank you for your kindness, Grand General. I know what to do!" Chu Linfeng said and then left, leaving everyone shocked.
Chu Linfeng quickly caught up with Ying Tianchou and imdiately said, "Kid, if you want a fight with , Young Master, I can oblige you, but it will be two days later. I don’t care how many people you bring, but there’s one thing that must be clear: life and death are no matter!"
Sword Spirit had instructed Chu Linfeng to do so after Ying Tianchou left, as it’d sensed sothing terrible on Ying Tianchou. If not eliminated now, it would mature into a massive threat in the future...
