Chapter 1093: Chapter 1094: Arriving as Promised
“No way! Senior Brother is so formidable, how can he compare?”
“Senior Brother only has the advantage of starting earlier. In a battle of the sa Realm, he might not necessarily defeat that new disciple,” Du Yuze replied.
“Gasp!”
The junior beside Du Yuze drew a sharp breath; according to Brother Du, Cui Libin might really lose.
On the other side, by the martial arts practice field, Liu Yang asked Zhu Kang for his opinion.
Zhu Kang was a bit hesitant, unsure if Lin Yifan’s harsh words were backed by real strength or were rely a bluff to intimidate Cui Libin and win without a fight.
“It’s hard to say. Advancing three Realms in just over two months is enough to make anyone shiver and fear.”
This answer already conveyed Zhu Kang’s thoughts.
Though ambiguous, in Zhu Kang’s heart, Lin Yifan’s previous harsh words were nothing but a bluff.
“I think so too. That kid probably knows he can’t win and is trying to scare Brother Cui to save face. He doesn’t realize that Brother Cui won’t fall for it; it’s really a silent loss,” Liu Yang sneered, feeling delighted.
These past days, being forced to apologize on the spot by a new brat made him lose face, becoming a subject of ridicule wherever he went, sinking him into depression.
Now seeing that brat in trouble, he’s naturally elated, eager to add insult to injury.
The news of Cui Libin receiving Lin Yifan’s challenge quickly spread, and many knew there would be a spectacular showdown in a week.
If Lin Yifan didn’t show up on ti, it would prove he’s just a poser unwilling to admit his failure.
Xiaofang also heard the news, no wonder Lin Yifan had been so diligently cultivating recently — it was all to wash away his sha.
She was furious that all the disciples in dicinal Saint Valley misunderstood Lin Yifan, and she wanted to stand up and explain.
However, no one believed her explanation. To them, Lin Yifan tarnishing Mu Xueqing’s na was an already accepted fact.
Besides, people turned it around, claiming she was deceived by Lin Yifan and urging her to leave him and return to Senior Brother’s embrace.
The ridicule from these onlookers filled Xiaofang with sha and anger; yet she couldn’t strike her fellow senior and junior brothers, so she had to leave.
Only she knew how formidable Lin Yifan was; Lin Yifan usually ant what he said, so the unheeding Cui Libin was dood.
A week’s ti passed quickly; on the morning of that week, Cui Libin was already waiting for Lin Yifan on the competition platform in the Valley.
If Lin Yifan didn’t co, it would show he was just an empty talker, all bluster.
Although it was only dawn, the audience beneath the platform and around the open field was already packed with people.
Over 90% of the Valley’s disciples ca to watch this match, all wanting to know if Lin Yifan dared to accept the challenge and discover who would ultimately triumph.
As ti ticked by, the anxious Xiaofang awaited Lin Yifan’s arrival below the stage.
She didn’t wait at the door of Lin Yifan’s room because she didn’t want to disturb his cultivation; besides, she believed he would definitely co back, so she arrived early.
Everyone had waited for a while, and seeing no sign of Lin Yifan, they couldn’t help but scoff.
“He’s been gone so long! Could it be that he chickened out?”
“Probably, attempting to advance a Realm in a week is nothing short of a dream.”
“Ah! We were expecting a spectacular battle. How disappointing that it’s not happening.”
“Brother Zhu, do you think that kid will show up?” Liu Yang asked curiously.
They also ca; how could they miss such a good show?
“I don’t think so, unless he doesn’t care about his face,” Zhu Kang answered resolutely.
“I believe he values his face a lot, so he won’t co,” Liu Yang mocked with a sneer.
On the other hand, when everyone thought the match would fizzle out, the junior beside Du Yuze asked for his opinion: “Brother Du, do you think the new junior brother will co?”
“He will!”
Du Yuze answered with firm conviction.
It was a gut feeling, an intuition about a fearless and intrepid strongman.
Just as he spoke, a dashing figure flew in from the direction of Peach Blossom Pond.
Upon seeing this scene, the crowd exclaid, “He’s here! He’s here! He arrived as promised!”
Everyone looked toward Peach Blossom Pond and indeed saw a figure speeding their way.
“Whoa! Doesn’t he care about face, or has he really advanced?”
“I seem to feel an overwhelming power.”
“He… surely didn’t… really advance, did he?”
“Don’t frighten ; how could anyone in this world advance so quickly?”
Many low-Realm disciples were stunned, unsure if Lin Yifan really brought the strength to face the challenge.
“Brother Du, you’re truly insightful! Speaking of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao appears,” a junior beside Du Yuze flattered.
“What’s there to praise? Any strong person would co to face the challenge,” Du Yuze responded.
He saw Lin Yifan correctly; Lin Yifan was indeed strong, even stronger than the Second Senior Brother. Now, he was almost considering switching allegiance.
If people knew his current thoughts, they would be utterly shocked, as it was rare and incomprehensible for a High Realm cultivator to acknowledge a lower Realm cultivator as their superior.
Lin Yifan’s arrival proved many wrong, including the Seventh Senior Brother Zhu Kang and Liu Yang among others.
However, they didn’t believe Lin Yifan could defeat Cui Libin.
“Coming to embarrass himself without conceding, admirable indeed.”
“Is he going to bluff again?”
“Quite likely so.”
…
On stage, seeing Lin Yifan speeding his way, Cui Libin felt so pressure; because a week ago, Lin Yifan had boasted about taking his head, and if Lin Yifan had really advanced, he’d be in for it.
However, he psyched himself up; after all, he was at the Divine Transformation Third Realm Peak, two Realms higher than Lin Yifan, so even if Lin Yifan advanced, he might not win!
Below the stage, Xiaofang looked joyful, as she expected Lin Yifan to co. Given Lin Yifan’s style, she sohow foresaw a crippled person or a dead body.
“Alas! Why provoke others?”
Fights among fellow disciples were what she least wanted to see, but so things she couldn’t prevent.
Lin Yifan soon reached the area around the platform, and many sensed the aura of his strength now, Divine Transformation Second Realm Peak, with no change.
“Coming to et the challenge without advancing, truly suicidal!”
“Is he here to embarrass himself?”
“Brother Zhu, you were right; he’s really here to embarrass himself, haha! Hahaha!!” Liu Yang laughed happily, feeling all the previous frustration had been vented.
Du Yuze frowned, unable to understand why Lin Yifan did this; had he really not advanced?
On the other hand, Xiaofang shared the sa feeling, unable to comprehend Lin Yifan’s actions.
