Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Ten Consecutive Wins
"Why not?" Yu Hang smiled faintly, a hint of glint flashing in his eyes.
At the same time.
In a grand hall of the Duel Arena, within which a tower stood, three elders were gathered inside.
They were officials of the Duel Arena, among them a white-haired man, who was the presiding Elder of the Duel Arena.
The two other officials lowered their heads and said, "Elder, in the second tier of the second area, someone named Lin Feng has emerged. He has won ten consecutive matches and it seems likely he will continue to fight. Should we dispatch someone to intercept?"
"Ten consecutive victories?"
The Elder indifferently remarked, "Wait and see. If he wins two more matches, send out a Sniper. But for now, have Bai Feng and the others prepare."
"Yes, Elder."
After receiving the order, the two officials immediately retreated to make arrangements.
Whenever a powerful Martial Artist likely to challenge for high rewards appears in the Duel Arena, the officials always send out their own combat personnel, the so-called Snipers, to prevent the challengers from continuing their winning streak. After all, with Chu Country being so vast, it is inevitable that some remarkably talented individuals will emerge. If they don’t take precautions, wouldn’t the Duel Arena be at a loss?
On the Battle Platform.
Lin Feng faced a decision: take the basic reward of one thousand Gold Pearls and leave, or continue fighting.
Continuing would mean even richer rewards. The first win would yield a hundred Gold Pearls, which may not seem much, but the rewards for the subsequent matches would increase exponentially.
From the fifth victory onward, it would be one thousand six hundred, and for the sixth victory, it would be three thousand two hundred; and for the seventh victory, six thousand four hundred—how tempting that is.
Of course, the rewards were enticing, but the risks naturally escalated significantly.
After ten consecutive victories, if Lin Feng decided to continue challenging, he would move on to the third area to face challengers of Martial Master Third Layer.
"Keep going, keep going!"
"Damn it, if you are a real man, just do it!"
"Right, one thousand Gold Pearls isn’t much. The big prize is beyond; charge forward!"
"Brother, I believe in you!"
Seeing Lin Feng hesitate, the audience in the stands erupted first, each shout signaling Lin Feng to keep going.
Lin Feng smiled faintly. Without needing their advice, his intention was to keep fighting, as someone said, one thousand Gold Pearls were not really much. He turned to the Duel Arena official waiting for his decision.
"I choose to continue."
The official nodded, "Starting from the next match, you will face a master of Martial Master Third Layer. If you lose, you’ll forfeit the basic reward of one thousand Gold Pearls from your ten victories as well. Consider this carefully."
"I’ve thought it through; continue the fight."
Hearing this, the official did not waste words and led the way ahead to bring Lin Feng to the third area. Consequently, the entire audience from the second area also moved, rushing to the third area which was not originally very crowded.
Seeing so many people suddenly rushing in was quite a shock.
"What’s going on?" 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓅𝓊𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
"It seems someone is pursuing ten consecutive victories."
Protected by a group of people, Lin Feng arrived in the third area where a burly man was already standing on the battle platform.
His cultivation was evidently at Martial Master Third Layer. Seeing Lin Feng, his gaze slightly narrowed, and after the official whispered a few words into his ear, he nodded and sneered coldly, "Young lad, I didn’t expect someone as tender and delicate as you could achieve ten consecutive wins. The second area must be really weak. Come on up, I guarantee I’ll send you rolling back with one move."
Lin Feng just smiled faintly; quite arrogant, he thought, and swiftly leaped onto the battle platform.
Without another word, he launched an attack, and the stout man, seeing Lin Feng take the offensive, scoffed contemptuously.
"See my Shock Fist!"
After speaking, he shouted lowly and launched a sudden punch—this move being a Four Stars Battle Skill, incredibly powerful. Moreover, enhanced by his Third Layer True Qi, Gang Qi, it was undoubtedly a sweeping force for anyone at the Third Layer.
"This kid is going to lose. This man, named Tian Zhen, has an extremely powerful Shock Fist. Just now, several peak Third Layer fighters were blown away by him. This kid may be strong, but his cultivation is merely at the peak of Second Layer—defeat is certain!"
Bang!
A deep collision sound instantly came from the battle platform, and then a figure was sent flying backward. When everyone managed to see who was thrown, they were all dumbfounded.
It turned out that the figure thrown was the defender of the third area!
"How is this possible!!"
Everyone was shocked, wondering how this young man could possess such astonishing power. It was one thing to sweep through the Second Layer; it was entirely another that he wasn’t even a match for the Third Layer—in terms of strength, there was a significant gap.
"Is this lad a humanoid monster? Just how old is he to have such immense power?"
"Don’t know, probably his Star is of a strength-type, like those violent apes, etc..."
Many original spectators in the third area, upon seeing Lin Feng defeat their region’s original defender as soon as he acted, were quite shocked.
"Little brother, good strength, but strength without speed to hit, is of no use!!"
Whoosh!
A blue silhouette flashed and disappeared in an instant, and soon a handsome young man around sixteen or seventeen years old, holding a fan, appeared on the battle platform.
This young man had a gentle and elegant demeanor, entirely a refined and charming young master.
"Wow, it’s Zhuo Buyu!"
"Really, it’s him, and he seems even more handsome!"
"Master Zhuo, I love you!"
"It’s Zhuo Buyu, this guy is particularly fast with his movement techniques, this guy is definitely done for!!"
On the spectator stand, as this handsome young fop made his entrance, quite a few young girls blushed and confessed loudly, leaving Lin Feng somewhat astonished—this Zhuo Buyu seemed quite popular.
"Young man, just step down nicely, I don’t want to be rough, that wouldn’t be nice."
Zhuo Buyu snapped open his fan, which had a painting of some family’s young lady.
Lin Feng smiled lightly, "I advise you to step down too, lest I ruin your pretty face; that would be even worse."
"You..."
Seeing Lin Feng speak like this, Zhuo Buyu immediately snapped his fan closed again, "In that case, today I, Zhuo, will just have to be a little rough!"
With a swoosh, in the next moment, his entire person disappeared from the spot, leaving only a stream of blue Qi—a speed so fast that everyone involuntarily rubbed their eyes, thinking they were seeing things.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly; interesting, this Zhuo Bufan was definitely practicing a Four Stars competing movement technique.
