'What? Xintang lost an arm to Lin Yi?'
Zhu Haoran was shocked when he heard the news.
He guessed that Lin Yun's martial arts talent was extraordinary, and so was his strength, but what he valued was Lin Yun's future strength. He didn't think that Lin Yun's current strength surpassed Li Xintang's, let alone by so much.
Just one move and Li Xintang's arm was disabled.
'Uncle, that kid actually dared to cripple Xintang's arm. I've checked it out, and it's really crippled, it can't be recovered. This is equivalent to ruining Xintang's future... I definitely can't let him go, even if he is Dashan's disciple, not to mention that, didn't you say, he's not really Dashan's disciple?' A middle-aged man said angrily.
He was Li Xintang's master, Yan Dashan's junior, Chen Dawu, who was now at the mid-stage of dark strength.
As he spoke, he was about to walk towards the door.
'Stop right there!' Zhu Haoran shouted.
'Uncle, he injured Xintang like this, and you're still defending him?' Chen Dawu turned around and looked at Zhu Haoran, angrily.
'Hmph! Do you know what Xintang did in Xianyuan County? Dashan almost died because of Xintang's actions!' Zhu Haoran said with a gloomy face.
'What?' Chen Dawu exclaimed in surprise.
'Although the opponent is not considered a true disciple of Dashan, he is also considered half a disciple of Dashan. Xintang's actions almost killed Dashan, and it is only natural for the opponent to stand up for Dashan. What's more, this time, it was Xintang who went after the opponent!' Zhu Haoran said sternly.
'In a life-and-death duel, you are responsible for your own life. It is normal for the opponent to beat Xintang to death. It is only a result of my request that Xintang only lost an arm, and the opponent has already shown mercy.' After a pause, Zhu Haoran continued,
'Uncle, you...' Chen Dawu couldn't believe it.
He never expected Zhu Haoran to have made such a request to the other party.
Doesn't that mean Zhu Haoran already knew that Li Xintang was no match for the other party?
'At the time, I didn't expect him to be so strong either...' Seeing Chen Dawu's expression, Zhu Haoran let out a sigh of relief and said,
'Even so, he crippled Xintang's arm, and I can't let him off like this. You know, Xintang is very talented in martial arts. This time, he participated in the rookie competition and finished in the top 50 in the preliminary round. This is an excellent way to make a name for our Qishangmen. Now, Xintang can only withdraw from the competition. Even if I let him off, the other elders and deacons of our Qishangmen will not agree...' Chen Dawu shook his head.
'Don't worry about this matter, I will talk to them...' Zhu Haoran glanced at Chen Dawu and said.
If Lin Yun did not know and get along with the son of Zhang Wentian from Su City, he would not have said anything about this matter. However, Lin Yun knows and is familiar with the son of Zhang Wentian from Su City, and he can say this matter to the others of the Seven Injuries Gate.
Although, their Seven Injuries Gate also has martial arts masters, but the martial arts masters of their Seven Injuries Gate are already not young, and have not been involved in worldly affairs for many years. He believes that the others in their Seven Injuries Gate will not want to easily offend another young martial arts master.
Yes, Zhang Wentian's son is only in his early twenties, and Zhang Wentian is not very old, not yet sixty years old.
Among the martial arts masters, this can be considered very young, and there is further potential.
This kind of martial arts master is even more feared than some of the older martial arts masters.
...
After leaving the arena of life and death, Lin Yun and Zhang Haoran went to the arena of the rookie competition together.
The rules for the rematch were also very simple.
The top 300 from the preliminary round drew lots together.
The winners advanced directly to the top 150.
However, some who were no longer able to fight were subtracted, and some who performed well were added, as well as some who participated in the resurrection competition.
A total of 200 people will be selected to compete in the second round.
The top 100 will be decided.
Then, the top 60.
The top 35.
The top 20.
Each round will be followed by a repechage round, and some people will be selected to compete in the repechage round.
Some of the players who advanced directly can also take a break during this time.
As for those who passed the resurrection match, they will not be given this preferential treatment. This is the price they paid for their previous failure. They can only say that it was bad luck. The resurrection match was, in itself, an extra opportunity for them after their failure.
In short, today's rematch will determine the top 20.
Tomorrow, the last day of the Martial Arts Tournament, will determine the top ten and the specific rankings of the top ten.
First round.
Lin Yunsong wins.
Second round.
Lin Yunsong wins.
Unlike the preliminary round, each round of the repechage features stronger competitors than the previous round.
As a result, Zhang Haoran lost in the second round after his lucky win in the first round.
This was also because Lin Yun had taught him some martial arts skills again last night, and he had become familiar with them overnight. Otherwise, he may not have been able to win in the first battle.
However, as a result, Zhang Haoran only achieved a result of top 150 in the repechage.
This also shows that some powerful martial artists in the preliminary round yesterday did not use their full strength.
Perhaps those powerful martial artists had high ambitions this time, so they didn't want any accidents to happen. They just wanted to ensure that they could advance to the next round in the preliminary round in order to preserve their strength.
Those people didn't even participate in all ten preliminary round battles.
Only some people of average strength, who wanted to be in the spotlight for a moment, used their full strength in the preliminary round, because if they didn't use their full strength in the preliminary round, they wouldn't have the chance to be in the spotlight later.
Think about it, the top few places in the preliminary round, the top tens, are they not a credit to you when you talk about them?
Finishing in the top 100 or 200 in the repechage is not as good as finishing in the top tens in the preliminaries.
'Lin Yi, that's a direct disciple of Shaolin. I've heard of his name in the late stage of Ming Jin. It is said that his strength is very powerful among late stage martial artists of Ming Jin. I never thought that he would be defeated by you...'
'Lin Yi, your opponent in the next battle is surprisingly from Bagua Sect. The Bagua Sect's martial arts are not easy to deal with. You have to...'
Zhang Haoran's ranking in the preliminary and repechage rounds had exceeded expectations. Although he had lost the competition, he was not frustrated, but instead surrounded Lin Yun and excitedly said: 'Lin Yun, you have already surpassed my expectations.
Although you are unable to advance due to your strength, it is still very exciting to see your friends advancing continuously.
He did not know Lin Yun's strength, and he did not pursue it. First, this is a relatively private matter, and second, some things are better discovered slowly to have a greater sense of surprise.
'Hmph! My father often says that I am not doing the right thing. If he knew that I had made such a powerful friend as Brother Lin Yi, what kind of reaction would he have...' Zhang Haoran hummed lightly in his heart and thought this.
'Wow! The Lin Fairy is on the stage, she is really beautiful, Brother Lin Yi, look, look...'
At this moment, Zhang Haoran once again grabbed Lin Yun's arm and pointed at a ring, excitedly saying.
Because there were many people watching around this ring, they could only be outside.
'Lin Fairy?'
Lin Yun looked at the arena and smiled slightly.
On that arena, the person everyone called Fairy Lin was none other than Lin Mengmeng.
'This girl's strength has increased even more. It should be the effect of the Qingyun Supreme. If things continue like this, I'm afraid she'll break through to the pinnacle of Mingjin in just a few months...' Lin Yun thought to himself.
Before the Qingyun Company incident, Lin Mengmeng often sought him out to spar with her, and he had also instructed her on many martial arts techniques and training matters. He knew Lin Mengmeng's strength very well.
It must be said that Lin Mengmeng's martial arts talent is indeed not weak and she has improved very quickly.
This is already the third round of fighting, and if she wins, she can advance to the top 60.
Lin Mengmeng was unlucky, as her opponent this time was a martial artist at the pinnacle of Ming Jin.
'Bang-bang-bang...'
Soon, the two began to fight on the ring.
Sure enough, after a few dozen moves, Lin Mengmeng began to fall behind.
There is still a significant gap between the late stage of Ming Jin and the pinnacle of Ming Jin.
Lin Mengmeng can hold out for dozens of moves, which is not bad.
'Come on...come on...'
'Lin Fairy, hang in there...'
'This guy, really, not a man at all, not giving way to Lin Fairy...'
Under the ring, some young men cheered for Lin Mengmeng, shouting.
The man who was sparring with Lin Mengmeng on the ring was very speechless.
Lin Mengmeng's image made him very excited as well, but in comparison, he still hoped to become famous more.
The main reason was that he knew his own limitations. Lin Mengmeng had already attracted the attention of many martial arts geniuses, and in comparison, he was not as conspicuous.
It would be better to obtain something more practical.
