Chapter 103 - It Was Lin Yuanheng Who Actually Won

Ye Xuan still didn’t know that his existence had attracted some people’s attention, and he was like a small splash that quickly disappeared without a sound.

The preliminaries were simple. As long as the sect passed the trial stone, it was considered a success. Even if many people were eliminated, there were still many sects left.

Everyone knew that this was just the beginning. The truly difficult part had yet to make its appearance. Only by displaying the strength of their respective sects could they attract the attention of those big sects.

If there were any outstanding ones among them, it was not impossible for them to be accepted as disciples by the seven great sects.

“The next round will be the battle between the sect disciples.”

After the trial stone, it was the sect’s battle. There were a total of three rounds, and they were the battles between the disciples, elders, and sect leaders. It could be said that the strength of the entire sect was assessed from all aspects.

By drawing lots, they would be divided into groups of two, and whoever was drawn would go up. If the sect failed a total of ten times, the sect would be considered a failure.

If the disciples lost in a battle, there would be a battle between the elders and the sect master. However, if they lost three rounds in a row, they would be disqualified. The winner would then face the final challenge.

The overall level of the disciples of the Tai Qing sect could be said to be lower among the crowd. After hearing the rules, they suddenly became a little worried.

Although it was simple and crude, it was undoubtedly the fastest and easiest method of elimination. However, it was not advantageous to some sects, such as the Tai Qing Sect.

“I’m afraid it’ll be disadvantageous for us if we fight in this way.”

Their aptitudes had been changed by Ye Xuan’s supreme-grade marrow cleansing pill, but their cultivation time was still shallow. If they were given more time, they would definitely have the power to fight, but they were no match for these sects with deep foundations.

Among the disciples, Lin Yuanheng was probably the calmest. He comforted everyone, “It doesn’t matter. Even if we lose this round, there’s still Elder Ye and the Sect Master. They might be able to help us recover some of our losses. Everyone, don’t give up hope.”

When the bystanders heard this, they couldn’t help but show a look of contempt. Someone said, “How did you pass the trial stone? With such low cultivation, I think you should just admit defeat and go back. Otherwise, you’ll embarrass yourself in public.”

The people from the Tai Qing Sect were unhappy when they heard this. They asked, “What do you mean?”

“I’m just giving you a kind reminder. This is the capital. A small sect from a remote place shouldn’t humiliate themselves here.”

The people of the Tai Qing Sect glared at them, but the more they talked, the more agitated they became. One of them said, “What, you’re not convinced? If you’re so capable, let’s see who’s stronger in the arena.”

Soon, everyone was divided into groups. The large square was instantly divided into countless fighting venues, and everyone took the lots they had drawn and went up to the arena.

Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road. The people who were fighting against the Tai Qing Sect were the people from the Green Peak Sect who had mocked them earlier.

Lin Yuanheng was the first to fight Zhao Jun, the head disciple of the green Peak sect.

“You’re out of luck today to actually meet me in a match.”

Recalling the mocking faces of Zhao Jun and the others earlier, Lin Yuanheng sneered, “I’m afraid it’s not certain who will be the unlucky one here.”

Zhao Jun flew into a rage out of humiliation. He said, “You’re good at talking, but I wonder how good you are at fighting.”

“You’ll know when you try.”

The moment their words fell, the two of them attacked almost at the same time. Only afterimages could be seen in the air. The two figures were entangled together, almost inseparable.

The people from the Tai Qing Sect couldn’t help but worry. Someone commented, “I’m afraid Zhao Jun’s cultivation is at the peak of the earth rank. Can Senior Brother Lin deal with him? ”

After all, Lin Yuanheng’s foundation had just been repaired, and he was usually low-key, so no one knew what his true strength was.

Ye Xuan’s face was indifferent. The disciples of the Tai Qing Sect couldn’t help but ask, “Elder Ye, are you not worried?”

“What’s there to worry about? Lin Yuanheng will definitely win.”

What a joke. This was a man with a secret weapon. Not to mention his top-grade medicinal pills, there was also the old man in Lin Yuanheng’s ring. He was not a simple person.

When the Green Peak Sect’s disciples heard this, they could not help but sneer, “You guys are not strong, but you are good at bragging. Who is our eldest senior brother? How could he be defeated by a sect like yours?”

Even the other people watching the battle below the stage were not optimistic about the Tai Qing Sect. After all, Lin Yuanheng was two levels lower than Zhao Jun.

“There’s nothing to see. There’s no suspense in this battle. Zhao Jun from the Green Peak Sect will probably win.”

The crowd was uninterested, and even the people of the Green Peak Sect thought so.

“Just wait and see. Our eldest senior brother can finish you all off in one move.”

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, the stage immediately began to smoke, attracting everyone’s attention. The huge movement even affected the seven great sects on the stage.

“What kind of competition would cause such a huge commotion?”

Red energy fluctuations rushed into the sky, containing powerful fire elements. Tongues of fire swept up, devouring everything in the surroundings. It just happened to collide with the blue spiritual energy, like two meteorites exploding.

Smoke billowed from the tournament arena. If it wasn’t for the restriction set up in advance, it would have affected the people of the other sects. For a moment, everyone cast curious eyes over to the source of the explosions.

When the smoke dispersed, Lin Yuanheng appeared in front of everyone. His expression was calm, while Zhao Jun’s face was in a sorry state. Even his clothes were in tatters, with burn marks all over them.

It was no surprise who would win.

Lin Yuanheng smiled faintly and said, “Thank you for the match.”

The people from the Green Peak Sect were dumbfounded. They thought that they were hallucinating. They could not believe that Lin Yuanheng would actually win.
