Chapter 205: He's the One, I Say He's Right, So He Is!
Lin Yan and Lin Dong moved quickly.
Since they left Fu Kui Cave, they headed straight to the Martial Monument of Creation.
However, they had spent quite some time in the cave, so when they arrived at the monument, the huge plaza was already filled with people.
Everyone was patiently waiting in front of the monument.
In the center of the plaza stood a huge stone stele without inscriptions.
In front of the stele, the four major families had demarcated their own areas, occupying the best spots.
Despite being in Da Huang County, the four major families were the most powerful forces in the Da Yan Kingdom, and no one dared to say anything about their choice of locations.
As the plaza filled up with people, a ray of sunlight filtered down from the sky.
The sun illuminated the Martial Monument of Creation, and a series of sounds resonated from the stele, like the gentle tolling of an ancient bell, spreading throughout the area.
Seeing the monument's reaction, the warriors in the plaza became excited, their eyes shining with greed as they fixed their gaze on the stele.
However, everyone knew that, although there were many warriors present, only the top ten would have the opportunity to obtain the prize.
So, apart from those who were just there out of curiosity, the warriors who desired the chance grew tense.
Suddenly, under everyone's gaze, ten columns of light emerged from the monument, forming ten ancient cushions in front of the stele.
The warriors became excited, knowing that sitting on one of those cushions meant having a great opportunity.
Even if they didn't obtain the legendary martial art of creation, any technique obtained there would be valuable.
But, although they were eager, no one dared to move. They knew that with great opportunities came great risks.
If they couldn't surpass others, trying to get ahead would only bring them trouble.
This calm didn't last long. Shortly after, a man stepped forward and sat on one of the cushions.
At first, the warriors wanted to see who was so reckless, but upon seeing his face, they all fell silent.
"Lin Langtian."
"If it's him, he definitely has the right to take a place."
The warriors murmured, accepting his presence.
However, the second to step forward caused discontent.
Although he was famous, he had been defeated by Lin Dong before, which generated dissatisfaction among those present.
That man was Wang Yan.
After Lin Langtian sat down, Wang Yan tried to take a place.
But his appearance sparked many protests.
"Wang Yan, with your strength, taking a place isn't appropriate."
"Your ability is far inferior to Lin Langtian's."
"There are many here better than you."
"You should let your brother Wang Zhong try."
The warriors kept talking, making Wang Yan feel humiliated.
"Elders," he looked at the elders behind him.
They responded with a cold snort and unleashed their powerful energy.
"If anyone disagrees, let them try. We'll show you why Wang Yan deserves a place."
With this, the warriors fell silent. Perhaps Wang Yan didn't deserve it, but with the backing of his family, no one dared to protest.
Quickly, members of the Huangfu and Qin families also took their places without objections.
With this background, no one dared to question them, knowing that their powerful families supported them.
Thus, in a few minutes, six of the ten places were already taken.
Those present felt a bit frustrated, but also curious.
Why hadn't anyone from the Yin Kui Clan appeared?
They wouldn't miss an opportunity like this.
"Has the Yin Kui Clan been eliminated?" Wu Ci asked Mu Qianqian, recalling a recent conflict between his sect and the Yin Kui Clan.
But Wu Ci thought further and realized that the Yin Kui Clan had sent a strong force to confront Lin Yan, so they should have had an advantage.
"It can only have been Lin Yan," Wu Ci concluded.
In such a large crowd, only Lin Yan could have defeated the Yin Kui Clan.
"What bad luck they had to face a monster like him," sighed Wu Ci.
"Fortunately, our sect doesn't seek trouble."
Wu Ci felt some pity for the Yin Kui Clan, which had provoked Lin Yan and suffered the consequences.
"Hehe, I don't know," Mu Qianqian replied, not revealing anything.
Although many suspected Lin Yan was behind it, without evidence, she couldn't confirm it. She didn't want to make an enemy of a monster like Lin Yan, so she kept silent.
"Since everyone is so courteous, the seventh place will be for our Qing Mu sect."
When none of the warriors moved, a group stepped forward. Among them were three Energy Realm warriors, which impressed many.
"Qing Mu, a force from the Da Qing Realm. I didn't expect them to be here too."
"Three Energy Realm warriors are quite impressive. I heard their power in the Da Qing Realm is comparable to the three major forces."
Some recognized the Qing Mu sect and began to comment, without opposing resistance, as they didn't want trouble.
"The eighth place will be for our Shi Quan sect."
Another group quickly advanced and claimed a place. This was also a powerful sect.
Now, only two places remained.
Lin Keer used her spiritual power to observe the warriors around. Knowing Lin Yan and Lin Dong, she knew they wouldn't miss this opportunity.
"Could it be that Lin Yan and Lin Dong won't make it in time?" Mu Qianqian was surprised.
If Lin Yan arrived, he would surely get a place, as Mu Qianqian fully trusted in his strength. However, she feared they might have been delayed and missed the opportunity.
As Mu Qianqian looked forward, another group appeared.
"The ninth place will be for our Gu Jian sect."
The warriors accepted this, recognizing the strength of this sect.
"I'm sorry, but this place is for me," a carefree voice sounded.
Everyone looked towards the origin of the voice and saw a handsome young man with wings, floating in the air and smiling.
"Lin Yan. I knew he would come."
"It's incredible. Previously, he alone drove back the entire Yin Kui Clan."
"And he didn't even show respect to the Wang family."
"Although Gu Jian is strong, facing him will be troublesome."
The warriors commented on Lin Yan's formidable reputation.
"Elder, doesn't that person look familiar to you?" A disciple of Gu Jian asked his elder.
The elder looked and his expression changed.
"It's him! The young man who killed the ancient monkey dragon!"
The disciples of Gu Jian were astonished, looking at Lin Yan with fear.
"Yes, it's him."
"How terrifying! Is he also here and wants a place?"
"Elder, maybe we should withdraw."
Many disciples tried to persuade the elder, as they had seen Lin Yan's incredible strength. They remembered the terrifying fire lotus he had used to kill the monkey dragon.
"It's not convenient for us to provoke him. We don't want to seek trouble."
The elder of Gu Jian quickly decided, knowing Lin Yan's true strength.
"If the young Lin Yan wants the ninth place, our Gu Jian sect won't compete."
"Young Lin Yan, go ahead."
Under everyone's astonished gaze, Lin Yan took his seat on one of the cushions.
The warriors were impressed. They knew Lin Yan was strong, but they didn't expect the Gu Jian sect to yield so easily.
Huangfu Jing smiled, "Qingzhu's friend is becoming more and more interesting."
"Although he's alone, his reputation is immense."
Mu Qianqian also smiled, "I'm not surprised; Brother Lin Yan is truly dominant."
Lin Keer laughed, "Is this guy already so famous?"
Everyone was surprised by this outcome, but what happened next was even more surprising.
After Lin Yan took his place, Lin Dong also arrived, aiming for the last place.
But this time, the competition was fierce. Not only the Gu Jian sect, but many other sects that had been waiting also advanced.
"Young one."
"The previous nine either have immense strength or great backing."
"But it seems like you have neither."
An elder from a sect looked coldly at Lin Dong.
Lin Dong was preparing to demonstrate his strength when Lin Yan's voice interrupted.
"Who said he has no backing?"
"He's my brother."
"I say he has the right, so he does."
"If anyone disagrees, they can come talk to me. I'll take care of convincing them."
Lin Yan stood up and looked at the elder who had spoken, speaking calmly.
These words shook everyone present.
At that moment, everyone thought the same thing.
Lin Yan... How dominant!
