"Yu Fei, why are you so excited?"

A disciple nearby saw Yu Fei’s excited face, filled with confusion.

"Next, it’s our Martial Arts Academy’s turn to shine."

Yu Fei clenched his fists tightly. Watching the crushing defeats of several senior brothers in the previous four matches made him feel very suffocated. Until he saw that familiar figure appear on Senior Brother Meng’s side, he couldn’t believe it at first, thinking it was an illusion caused by his own frustration.

After rubbing his eyes several times and confirming it was indeed Senior Brother Lin, Yu Fei almost shouted in anger.

This year, four disciples from Jiangnan Dao successfully joined the Martial Arts Academy. Although he was originally supposed to go to Canglan Martial Arts Academy, he was persuaded otherwise by the Director.

The Director told him that the competition for spots at Canglan Martial Arts Academy was fierce this year. Compared to that, the chances of passing the assessment at Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy were greater.

Even though he wanted to be with Senior Brother Lin, Yu Fei considered his own Martial Path and chose to come to Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy, eventually passing the assessment and becoming a disciple there.

Yu Fei thought that the only way to see Senior Brother Lin again would be after entering the grade, but he didn’t expect to see him again so soon.

"Junior Brother Yu, do you know this person?"

A curious disciple asked from the side, but Yu Fei just kept his eyes on Lin Chen and didn’t answer.

He knew that Senior Brother Lin was a disciple of Canglan Martial Arts Academy. If he appeared in Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy to compete, it might violate the rules, so naturally, he wouldn’t reveal Senior Brother Lin’s identity, even if everyone around was from the Martial Arts Academy.

"Who is this junior brother?"

The disciples from Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy, from the previous two classes, were equally curious. They knew Meng Xing and the others, who were quite strong among the new students, but not this face.

"I don’t know. Let’s watch. Since Instructor Jiang arranged for this junior brother to come on stage, he must have a reason."

"Who is this person?"

"A disciple from Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy?"

When Lin Chen stepped onto the stage, all eyes in the audience were on him, most martial artists wearing a look of confusion.

"Who are you?"

Tian Qiyu questioned Lin Chen as he approached.

"A disciple of Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy."

Lin Chen answered calmly. His words weren’t a lie. An exchange student can be considered a disciple of the academy, recognized by the United Martial Arts Academy.

Spending three months at another martial academy and receiving their resources makes it reasonable to be called a disciple.

Although Lin Chen had just arrived at Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy, the moment when Canglan Martial Arts Academy replied to Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy about his status as an exchange student, it was official.

"You don’t even dare to state your name?"

"It’s not that I don’t dare."

Lin Chen shook his head slightly, looking at Tian Qiyu: "It’s just that you’re not worthy."

Pss!

With these words, the scene stirred.

Those words were too arrogant!

Tian Qiyu was the genius who defeated Kong Qing.

However, the Daliang martial artists at the scene felt quite satisfied hearing Lin Chen’s words; one should be this way in dealing with people from Zheng Kingdom.

"How arrogant? Since when did Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy have such a disciple?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

On the stand, a junior brother next to Kong Qing whispered, somewhat dissatisfied.

His own senior brother lost to Tian Qiyu, and now this person says Tian Qiyu isn’t worthy, doesn’t that also belittle his own senior brother?

"Shut up!"

Kong Qing scolded, noting that the Lingxiao disciple’s words weren’t aimed at him, but were due to Tian Qiyu’s identity.

He didn’t think the other was arrogant, but the key issue: after saying such words, if he couldn’t defeat Tian Qiyu, Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy would become a laughingstock.

Kong Qing’s thoughts represented the views of many Daliang martial artists at that moment.

Speaking boastfully is permissible, as long as he wins, someone will defend him. But if he loses, it will bring endless infamy.

"Did Lingxiao Martial Arts Academy save their trump card for last, to be so confident?"

At the Pilgrim Martial Arts Academy, a disciple sneered while Hu Bing closed his eyes, seemingly indifferent to the ongoing fight.

Only Yu Fei was so excited and unable to restrain himself. This was the Lin Senior Brother he knew—extremely humble with his own, but towards the enemy...

He remembered back in the day, when fighting for the meditation cushion, Senior Brother Lin was equally domineering.

...

"Well, I hope your strength matches your audacity!"

Tian Qiyu was amused with anger. Lin Chen was the first to speak to him like this; even Senior Brother Benshan Lang wouldn’t dare.

"One!"

Lin Chen raised an index finger.

He didn’t raise his middle finger, as he mentioned, Tian Qiyu wasn’t worthy.

Not worthy of his provocation.

"What do you mean?"

"One move!"

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent, and countless pupils shrank.

Below the stage, Meng Xing’s mouth twitched repeatedly. He believed Lin Senior Brother could defeat Tian Qiyu, but didn’t expect to hear such words.

Beside him, Jiang Yun’s expression turned peculiar. Wasn’t it said that Lin Chen was quite modest?

In front of everyone’s eyes, saying such a thing, if he couldn’t defeat Tian Qiyu with one move, even if he won later, it would still lead to bad talks about him.

"Senior, can we begin?"

Lin Chen looked towards the referee, ignoring Tian Qiyu.

"Yes."

The middle-aged man serving as the referee had a somewhat complex expression, already guessing Lin Chen’s identity.

With the middle-aged man’s affirmative nod, Tian Qiyu moved!

The moment Lin Chen spoke about one move, he decided he must quickly defeat the person in front of him.

The one to be defeated with one move should be the opponent.
