Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 238

[Chapter 238: Advancement Together]

In the first training ground, when the gong sounded, Qianye Lin’s hilt had already touched Murong Yu’s back, and she won the competition without any suspense. Then, Song Yuting was also defeated instantly. The young man named Jin Can from Wuji Country, with his incredible speed, surprisingly dodged her first attack, but he only dodged the first attack. His

speed was fast enough, but he was still not faster than Qianye Lin.

This girl from Fusang Country showed people the true strength of the top ten of the Tianjiao List.

At the same time, in the second training ground, the entire training ground was frozen, and Zhang Ren was frozen in the ice layer. However, Zhao Lingyin’s expression was still tense, because cracks had appeared on the ice layer and were still spreading. In the third training ground,

the poisonous fog was shrouded, and two men were fighting fiercely.

In the fourth training ground, Li Baizhang was surrounded by thunder, but he just circled in place.

In the fifth training ground, flames filled the entire training ground. Facing Princess Minghe, Zhang Yi did not dare to be careless. He punched out, and a sonic boom was heard in the air, and a passage appeared in the flames…

Compared with the tension and excitement of the other training grounds, the last training ground seemed extremely harmonious and beautiful.

On the stands, when everyone was not watching the battle for the purpose of learning, they unexpectedly discovered that the scene on the field was actually somewhat beautiful. After all, watching a pair of handsome and beautiful young men and women dancing with swords on the field was also a kind of enjoyment. On

the field, Lin Xiu winked at Xue Ning’er and asked, “Ning’er, is it almost done?”

He was worried that if he continued to fight like this, it would arouse the anger of the audience. After all, people also spent money, and they couldn’t keep watching this.

Xue Ning’er heard this and simply dropped her sword. She said to the referee on the sidelines, “I admit defeat…”

The referee had already been speechless and announced in a dull tone, “Lin Xiu wins. The next match is Song Yulang vs. Chen Qing…”

Lin Xiu and Xue Ning’er sat in the stands to rest and prepare for the next match. In fact, they had not consumed much energy just now. Both their energy and physical strength were at their peak. The two people

fighting on the field now were Song Yulang from the Song family and another son of the Duke’s family.

The difference in their strength was huge. Song Yulang had the ability of the Earth Rank Wood Element, while Chen Qing was a warrior of the upper realm of the Xuan Rank. As soon as the battle began, he was trapped in countless dancing vines. Although he was also trying his best to chop and counterattack, the effect was minimal. Soon, his limbs bound by the vines were raised high and he announced his surrender.

After the two matches, there would be a short break.

Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xiu went to other training grounds to take a look.

The competition in the first training ground has ended. Qianye Lin was one of the top ten in the last Tianjiao list. For other contestants, it was a complete dimensionality reduction attack. Even Murong Yu was defeated by her in one move.

No wonder Emperor Xia thinks so highly of her that he even thought of letting Lin Xiu seduce her.

However, Murong Yu’s performance was also good. Although she lost to Qianye Lin, she won the remaining two games cleanly and eliminated another son of the Song family and Jin Can of Wuji Country, and locked in a place in the top 12 in advance.

On the other hand, Lingyin lost the first game to Zhang Ren of the Zhang family, which was also expected.

Zhang Ren is the first person of the younger generation of the Zhang family. He is a user of the golden supernatural ability. His defense and attack are very abnormal, especially his defense. He can be called an indestructible cockroach. He is almost immune to all sharp weapon damage and is a nightmare for warriors. He can also resist most of the damage from supernatural arts.

Moreover, like Lin Xiu, he is a dual-earth level warrior in both magic and martial arts. He is not a hexagonal warrior, but a pentagonal warrior. As long as he cannot be defeated instantly at a long distance, there is basically no hope.

In the last big competition, he almost entered the top ten, and he is also one of Qianye Lin’s strongest opponents in this small competition.

Zhang Ren seems not very famous, but in fact it is because Daxia already has Zhao Lingjun.

He and Lin Xiu had the same experience. Zhao Lingjun’s brilliance covered all the geniuses of the same era as her. Under her brilliance, geniuses like Zhang Ren also seemed dim.

Although Lingyin lost a game, her next two opponents are not very strong, so she should have no problem advancing to the top twelve.

In the third training ground, the competition has not ended yet. In the fourth training ground, Li Baizhang lost to Qin Wan without suspense. He needs to defeat the warrior from Wuji Country to have hope of advancing.

Princess Minghe also lost a match. She lost to Zhang Yi from the Zhang family. The other two people in this group were a thunder genius from Java and a man from Fuso. It was easy for Princess Minghe to defeat the man from Fuso, but she had to defeat the man from Java to successfully advance.

Not long after, Ning’er also started her next match.

Her opponent was Song Yulang from the Song family. He had just easily defeated his opponent. This match was crucial for both of them. The winner basically entered the top 12, and the loser would most likely stop there. Both of them should go all out.

People in the stands also started to discuss.

“Who do you think will win?”

“The one from the Song family, you saw the competition just now. Once his ability was revealed, the opponent had no power to fight back.”

“I think so too…”

Xue Ning’er just now left them with a weak impression, and they didn’t quite believe that she was Song Yulang’s opponent.

“Nonsense, of course it’s our Ning’er who will win!”

“If you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense here!”

The crowd discussed for a few words, and they were stopped by several men from the Xue family.

On the training ground, Song Yulang was relieved. Fortunately, he met Xue Ning’er, not Princess Minghe. If she set a fire, it would be difficult for him to win.

After the competition began, he took the lead.

Countless vines emerged from the ground and attacked Xue Ning’er. His goal was to bind her hands and feet. Even if she was a ground-level warrior, her hands and feet were bound by his vines at the same time, and it would be difficult to break free.

At the moment the vines attacked, Xue Ning’er had already flown into the air.

At the same time, on the weapon rack next to the training ground, dozens of weapons, including swords, spears, and halberds, flew towards this side at the same time. The training ground was flashing with cold light, and all the vines were cut off. A long sword continued to fly towards Song Yulang and stopped three inches in front of his eyebrows.

Song Yulang’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. He relied on his special skills and his martial arts was mediocre. He was not like Zhang Ren, the invulnerable turtle. If this sword had gone a little further, he would have died.

Xue Ning’er’s means of controlling weapons and attacking from a distance were extremely fast, and he had no way to defend himself. What

made him most depressed was that when she was competing with Lin Xiu just now, she was so affectionate and gentle, but when it was his turn, she instantly turned into a female killer and almost stabbed him to death with one sword…

Song Yulang left the stage sadly. In his three games, he won one and lost one. The last game was against Lin Xiu. If he could win, he would naturally have a chance, but he could not win.

Not only could he not win, but he would most likely be embarrassed in public like the Prince of Changping.

Lin Xiu was not a good person. The Song family and the Xue family had frictions, which everyone knew. What was the relationship between Lin Xiu and Xue Ning’er? He didn’t want to fly around in the sky, nor did he want to be recorded in the famous scene of the competition.

So after he finished, he said very straightforwardly: “In the next game, I admit defeat.”

Chen Qing also knew his own strength, and followed up by saying: “In the next two games, I will also admit defeat.”

In this way, Lin Xiu won three games and advanced hand in hand with Xue Ning’er with two wins and one loss.

But this was not what Lin Xiu wanted. He was still thinking about Song Yulang’s ability and was ready to communicate with him closely in the competition later. However, Song Yulang insisted on admitting defeat, so he could only pat his shoulder helplessly and said: “In fact, life requires more struggle, and only love to fight can win, but since you have made this choice, I won’t say anything…”

When he spoke, his hand naturally stopped on his shoulder.

The more Lin Xiu said this, the more Song Yulang was sure that he had bad intentions towards him. He secretly rejoiced at his wise decision and hurried away from here.

It was impossible to abuse him like he abused the Prince of Changping…

Ning’er, who successfully advanced, happily went to find her family to share her joy, while Lin Xiu continued to pay attention to the situation of other groups.

Qianye Lin and Murong Yu had already advanced. When Lin Xiu walked over, Lingyin had just defeated the Earth Rank from the Western Regions and secured a spot for advancement.

The third group that advanced were Song Yuzhang and the man from the Northern Mang who could transform into a beast. The poison-using talent from the Nanzhao Kingdom was naturally defeated by a wind-type ability user, and the Northern Mang man, after transforming into a beast, seemed to have a strong resistance to poison mist and easily defeated him.

Qin Wan and Li Baizhang also advanced together. Li Baizhang had to work a little hard to get this spot. Qin Wan had never encountered an opponent that could match her from the beginning. Even an Earth Rank would be lost in her illusion.

Princess Minghe was the last one to get the qualification to advance. She and the young man with thunder attribute from Java both used long-range attack methods. She won because her skills had a short pre-swing time and a wide attack range. According to Lin Xiu’s experience, the power of thunder, when at the ground level, was no problem in hitting a fixed target, but it was difficult to hit a moving target. It was actually more convenient to release it in close combat, but it was a pity that the opponent had no chance to get close…

In this way, excluding Zhao Lingjun, the top twelve of this small competition were announced.

Among them, Daxia occupied ten places.

This shows the national strength of Daxia and its dominance over the surrounding countries. If Zhang Xin and others were not eliminated, Daxia might occupy eleven of the twelve strong people.

These people will be the objects of great training by the court in the next six months.

Among these people, the more people who can enter the top ten of the Tianjiao list, the more resources Daxia can obtain in the next three years, and they can also be used to train more talents.

After the end of today’s competition, there is a day of rest.

Lin Xiu and Lingyin both successfully advanced. The Lin family and the Zhao family took this opportunity to hold a family dinner.

Lin Ting and Zhou Yun still find it hard to believe that Lin Xiu had awakened his special ability very early and had kept it a secret from them. However, seeing him come this far, they are filled with pride and honor.

Wu’an Hou and his wife naturally liked Lin Xiu more and more. He often visited the Zhao residence to see them, bringing many gifts every time. He treated them better than their own son. He even went to the Zhao residence more often than Lingjun went home. The

only regret of the two couples is that Lingjun has not gotten pregnant yet. Zhou Yun even suggested that they ask the imperial physician to take a look at them. Lin Xiu quickly said, “No need. I have a friend who is an imperial physician. It’s not because of physical reasons. It’s just that we don’t have such a plan for the time being. Let’s talk about it later, let’s talk about it later…”
