Chapter 948 Collecting Bets (2)

Everyone's mouths dropped in shock when they heard this.

There were many people even checking their ears to see if they had heard this correctly.

Lin Fan was actually challenging Lin Tian to a duel?

Lin Fan might be a monster, but he was still someone from the youngest generation.

Lin Tian was someone who was three generations higher and was someone that was on the same level as Lin Jian.

Not to mention the cultivation level difference.

Lin Fan was only in the Star Realm while Lin Jian was in the Peak Sun Realm!

This was a gap that was impossible to climb no matter how much of a monster Lin Fan was.

That was two major realms!

So everyone couldn't understand what Lin Fan was doing, except…Lin Jian.

He wasn't surprised at all by Lin Fan's challenge towards Lin Tian since he knew something that the rest of them didn't know. In his eyes, one could see enough confidence in Lin Fan, as if he could already see Lin Fan's victory.

If anyone had actually seen it, they would have thought that he was crazy since it would be impossible for Lin Fan to win.

There was only silence that filled the air for a long time as people didn't know how to react at all.

It was only after a long time that Lin Tian finally said with great difficulty, "You want to challenge me to a duel? Are you sure?"

He couldn't help asking this since he couldn't believe his ears.

After all, no one would think that someone in the Star Realm would challenge someone like him who was in the Peak Sun Realm.

That was equal to suicide.

But he also couldn't help feeling a bit of rage since this challenge would without a doubt hurt his prestige. Even if he didn't accept it, even if he chose to ignore Lin Fan, his prestige would still be hurt as someone who was challenged by a junior.

This was a mark that would never be washed off.

Lin Fan just calmly looked at Lin Tian and answered, "I challenge you to a duel because you have insulted my honour."

Everyone couldn't help revealing even more shocked looks when Lin Fan said this the second time.

If he just backed down here, then nothing would have happened and they could have treated it as a joke.

But the fact that he said it again meant that there was no backing down now.

Lin Tian's face turned dark as he said, "Then are you prepared for the consequences?"

Since Lin Fan was this crazy, he would oblige him.

Since Lin Fan would go this far to piss him off, then he would take this chance to vent his anger.

Since Lin Fan wouldn't back down, then neither would he.

Lin Fan just said with a calm smile, "Isn't it just beating an old dog? What consequences will there be?"

Everyone was suddenly filled with rage at Lin Fan's words of provocation.

This time, his arrogance had reached the sky…It had even torn a hole in the sky with how arrogant he was.

Old dog?

This was Lin Tian, one of the pillars of the Lin Astral Family and he dared to call him old dog?

This kid clearly didn't have any adults in his eyes.

But Lin Tian was surprisingly calm as he said, "Good, very good. Since you're this confident, then I'll play with you."

Then he turned his eyes to look at Lin Jian standing beside Lin Fan as he said, "Cousin, you heard your grandson. He's the one that provoked me first, so my hands are tied. The only question now is…will you be interfering?"

The reason why he didn't lose his temper right away was because he knew that Lin Jian was still here.

Lin Jian was the one person that he would always fear no matter what.

This was a fear that was deeply imprinted in his heart.

If Lin Jian made a move here, this situation wouldn't be good for him.

So he had to see what Lin Jian's intentions were before he made his move.

Lin Jian just looked at Lin Tian and said, "It's his matters, why would I interfere?"

Everyone was once again shocked when they heard this, it was even enough for them to forget their rage.

After all, they didn't expect Lin Jian to act this careless in this matter.

Lin Jian was someone that could match Lin Tian, so he would be the only one that could stop him if things went too far. But now he was saying that he wouldn't interfere…so would he still not interfere when Lin Fan was in danger?

After all, if he did interfere now that he had said this, this would be a blow to his prestige.

Lin Tian just gave a nod before revealing a wide smile.

This was a smile that didn't reach his eyes at all though as his eyes still had the faint flames of rage in them.

He looked at Lin Fan and said, "Great nephew, follow me."

Then without even looking back, he headed into the residence.

Both Lin Fan and Lin Jian followed him without a single care.

Lin Tian led them into the residence, into a large building where there was a large arena waiting.

This was the training area of Lin Tian's branch.

Lin Tian jumped onto the stage before turning to Lin Fan and saying, "I'm waiting."

Lin Fan just revealed a smile and also jumped into the arena.

Lin Tian then asked, "Shall we have a referee for this match?"

Even if he had lost himself in his rage, he still kept a bit of his reasoning. His proposal for a judge was to make sure that when things got too heated, someone would be able to stop them.

After all, he knew how much the Lin Astral Emperor valued Lin Fan, so it wasn't in his best interests to hurt him.

But to his surprise, Lin Fan said, "There's no need."

Lin Tian knitted his brows as he looked at him for a few seconds, but then he gave a nod in agreement.

With the difference in cultivation levels, he should be able to hold himself back if things came to worse. Things should end much earlier than that since he would be able to suppress Lin Fan right away with his cultivation base.

He had only asked just in case.

Since they were both ready, there was no waiting. Lin Tian just had someone declare the start of the match and they would fight.

Before the match began, the two of them just stared at each other.

Lin Tian couldn't help being unnerved as he looked at Lin Fan.

The calm way that Lin Fan was just standing there, it was almost as if he could already see his victory. But by all common reasoning, he shouldn't be this confident since every single factor was in Lin Tian's favour.

There was no world where Lin Fan would be able to defeat Lin Tian.

So why was he this confident?

Lin Tian could see that this confidence wasn't fake…he could see the look in Lin Fan's eyes.

It was as if he could already see himself defeating Lin Tian.

The more Lin Tian saw this look, the more it unnerved him because it was just like Lin Jian's eyes whenever he faced him in the past.

Lin Jian had also looked at him like this whenever they had fought.

It was like he didn't put him in his eyes at all.

This look triggered Lin Tian's mental trauma and he couldn't hold himself back anymore.

He suddenly summoned out his pet.

It was a giant deer that had antlers that seemed to be made of crystals, but when one looked at it more closely, they would see that it was made out of ice.

This was the Frozen Antler Deer, a Peak Sun Realm Pet.

As soon as the Frozen Antler Deer was summoned, it raised itself onto its two back legs and the ice antlers started to glow. It didn't take long before there was a blizzard that started forming around the Frozen Antler Deer that quickly spread all around it.

The only safe space was the space around the Frozen Antler Deer where Lin Tian was standing.

The pressure from this blizzard made almost all of the spectators tremble since this was an all out attack from a Peak Sun Realm Pet.

Most of the spectators were only in the Star Realm, there were only a few that were in the Planet Realm. So this kind of pressure was very strong for them and they found it hard to withstand.

If it wasn't for the barrier around the arena, they might have collapsed right away from being exposed to this pressure.

But Lin Fan just calmly stood there in the arena, watching the wall of snow and wind coming at him.

He didn't flinch at all when he saw this and just looked like he didn't even see it at all.

Lin Tian felt another tinge of unease fill his heart, so he secretly gave an order to the Frozen Antler Deer.

The ice antlers lit up with even more light as the blizzard became even stronger.

Everyone believed that as long as Lin Fan was hit by this blizzard, he would be frozen in an instant. There was no chance that Lin Fan would be able to resist or dodge this attack, so they were just waiting to see him being frozen.

But right before the attack could hit him…Lin Fan disappeared.
