Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Dare to Accept the Challenge?
Upon seeing the other party, Lin Feng also smiled, and those uninformed might think they were long-lost good friends.
Shan Yu furrowed his brows. "What are you smiling about?"
"I’m smiling at how timely your appearance is,"
Lin Feng said indifferently.
Shan Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he scoffed, "What, you saw the marks on that trash Wang Shan’s face and want to take revenge on me? That’s right, I did that. Since I couldn’t find you, but didn’t want to get rusty, I used him for practice. This Wang Shan really cooperated well, kneeling on the ground, letting us slap him back and forth without any resistance. Eventually, we got tired too and just let him roll away. What do you say? Pretty considerate, right? We didn’t make him lose any limbs, that’s all out of respect for you, Lin Feng, considering you’re a Ninth Grade Star. We’re oh so scared."
"Haha, is this the Ninth Grade Star Lin Feng? Doesn’t seem so impressive to me."
"Who would have thought this kid has some guts, even daring to stand up for that trash, commendable courage!"
"But we can’t be sure, maybe he just lost his head in a fit of rage, and now he’s trembling with fear."
"Exactly, he probably doesn’t know that our brother Shan Yu has already made a breakthrough to the second layer of a Great Martial Master, haha!!"
Shan Yu looked down on Lin Feng with disdain. "Martial Master Eighth Layer? Tsk, not bad, worthy of being a Ninth Grade Star, your cultivation really is progressing quickly. You should know that I’ve only recently broken through to the second layer of a Great Martial Master, and I can lift 2500 kilograms easily!!"
Saying this, he looked at Lin Feng with a face full of arrogance, "How about it, still want to take revenge for that trash Wang Shan? If you kneel down and kowtow to me earnestly, perhaps, today I won’t trouble you. I’m still waiting to go on a date, and I have no spare time to deal with you. Of course, this is only for today."
As he spoke, the few of them burst into loud laughter.
Lin Feng smiled faintly, "A date? With that look of yours, I’m afraid it’s not with a person."
"You..."
Shan Yu suddenly became furious; although he wasn’t as handsome as Lin Feng, he definitely wasn’t bad-looking.
"Do you know what you’re saying, or are you insisting on experiencing what life is today?"
Lin Feng smiled faintly: "Enough, stop talking such nonsense. Shan Yu, right? I want to challenge you to a life-and-death fight, do you dare accept?"
Silence, dead silence, Shan Yu and the people by his side were completely stunned, and then Shan Yu burst into laughter.
"My heavens, am I hearing this right? You want to challenge me to a life-and-death fight? Kid, do you understand that in a fight to the death, regardless of the outcome, are you sure you’re not seeking death?"
The rest also looked at Lin Feng as if he were an idiot. It was truly their first time seeing a Sixth Generation Disciple actively declaring a life-and-death challenge to a Fifth Generation Disciple, quite the rare occurrence.
However, the atmosphere turned ice-cold in an instant, thinking that Lin Feng has ignored the path to heaven and brought himself to hell’s door, so he could blame no one but himself.
They knew that their former chief instructor specifically said not to provoke Lin Feng without good reason, so they had not dared to kill Lin Feng openly. But now it was different, it was Lin Feng seeking his own death.
If they rejected now, it would just seem too polite.
"Fine, I accept, when?"
Shan Yu agreed heartily, having no reason to refuse.
"How about today?"
Lin Feng spoke.
"It looks like I won’t be going on my date today. Oh well, snapping the neck of a genius is much more interesting than feeling up a woman’s ass." In Shan Yu’s eyes shone a fierce, wolf-like gloss.
"You guys, spread the news about this. Say that I, Shan Yu, am intent on fighting to the death with a Sixth Generation... genius disciple, Lin Feng."
Shan Yu ordered the people around him.
As the news was fanned and spread, the upcoming life-or-death battle between Lin Feng and the Fifth Generation Disciple Shan Yu went viral with the ferocity of a storm. Not only the Sixth Generation Disciples, but also more than seventy percent of the Fifth Generation Disciples were astonished. Then they all grew curious. This Sixth Generation Disciple was truly an oddity, daring to have a death duel with a Fifth Generation Disciple. How immensely overconfident he must be.
But when they found out that Lin Feng was also a Ninth Grade Star, the discussions became even more animated.
When Lin Feng arrived at the place for the death duel, the area was already crowded with spectators who had heard the news. Almost all the Sixth Generation Disciples had arrived, exclusive of Yu Wen Tuo. Even more were from the Fifth Generation.
"Wow, Lin Feng, you’re so amazing, actually having a life-or-death battle with a Fifth Generation Disciple. You better not tell me your brain has a hole." Yang Min inspected Lin Feng thoroughly from head to toe.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "If my brain had a hole, how could I help you complete the mission?"
"That’s true." Yang Min’s eyes rolled around, finding the logic in his words. Lin Feng always gave him a feeling that could be summed up in four words: unfathomably profound.
"So, this means you’re also confident about defeating that Shan Yu this time?"
"I’d say I have a seventy to eighty percent chance, but I can’t say for sure I’ll win," Lin Feng thought for a moment and said. Nothing can be said with certainty, leaving some room for error was wise, especially since Shan Yu might have some extraordinary tricks up his sleeve.
"Amazing. A mere martial master has the confidence to fight a Great Martial Master with a seventy to eighty percent chance of winning. That Yu Wen Tuo is far behind you. By the way, I’ve heard that Yu Wen Tuo seems to be on the verge of breaking through to Great Martial Master level. When that happens, you’ll need to be careful. His Dynasty has already begun to infiltrate the Fifth Generation Disciples. Many big organizations can’t withstand Yu Wen Tuo’s carrots and sticks and have chosen to side with him."
Yang Min kindly reminded him.
Lin Feng indicated that he understood; all this was within his expectations. Yu Wen Tuo, though arrogant and with great ambition, also had decent strength and a reasonable foundation, so his rapid cultivation progress made sense.
"Lin Feng, come on up. Let us witness firsthand the prowess of a genius and see the power of a Ninth Grade Star."
On the platform above, Shan Yu had already arrived. He looked down on Lin Feng with a face full of pride. Although his opponent’s star grade was higher, he was not afraid because their cultivation levels were extremely disparate. Sure, his opponent was able to kill Hua Hu, but that was all. Now, as a martial master of the Second Layer, who could stand against his strength of two thousand and five hundred catties?
Lin Feng nodded at Yang Min, then leapt onto the platform in a single bound. Yang Min’s lips parted as if he wanted to say "be careful," but the words never made it out.
On the platform, Lin Feng stood in opposition to Shan Yu.
Many surrounding Fifth Generation Disciples nodded and watched expectantly.
"So this is the Ninth Grade Star? He looks really young."
"Sixth Generation Disciple, only fourteen or fifteen years old, I believe. It seems like he killed Hua Hu. His talent is quite impressive, but his personality is not good; too foolish, just a brash young man."
"Pity for such a fine star grade, an absolute waste of heavenly gifts. Shan Yu is much stronger than Hua Hu; just in terms of pure strength, he is directly four to five hundred catties stronger. This time falling into the hands of Shan Yu and that group of wolves, this guy’s fate seems sealed."
Many people shook their heads and sighed.
