Chapter 9:
"A reward of a pill, how much does the system look down on Lin Shan."
Lin Yun complained in his heart.
Previously, Qi and Blood Pills were rewarded in bottles, but now they have become just one.
However, Lin Yun was still quite satisfied with the third-grade Qi and blood. After all, it was good enough to create a task for a loser like Lin Shan who could be easily defeated, and it was worth it no matter how big the reward was.
"If you have the ability, don't use your energy." Lin Shan said provocatively.
He knew that even without using his Yuan power, he would still be no match for Lin Yun. The reason he said that was because hitting someone with Yuan power was more painful.
"hehe!"
Lin Yun smiled faintly and ignored Lin Shan's childish provocation.
Anyone who has Yuanli but doesn't use it is a fool. As for ability, only those who don't have Yuanli are incompetent.
"Rockfall Fist."
Lin Shan let out a low roar and punched hard with both fists. He had been practicing quite hard during this period, and his Rock-Falling Fist was close to perfection. If Lin Yun did not use his Yuanli, he felt that he would not necessarily be crushed.
"It's still the pebble fist." Lin Yun shook his head and quickly punched out with one fist, bang bang, it was the same Falling Rock Fist move, Lin Yun had already mastered it to perfection, with the artistic conception of turning decay into magic, and no moves being better than moves. There was no need for fancy moves at all, a simple move was enough to unleash the strongest power of the Falling Rock Fist.
For Lin Shan at this level, Lin Yun's slight move was already his limit!
With just one blow, Lin Shan's clenched fists instantly became weak and loose, his arms became numb, and all the strength in his body was disrupted by the blow and could not flow to his arms at all.
Lin Yun stepped forward and threw punches quickly, a set of Wing Chun punches raining down on Lin Shan's chest.
The punch wasn't heavy, but it did hurt a little.
In front of so many tribesmen, Lin Yun couldn't be cruel, so teaching them a lesson was enough.
"Bang!"
After the last punch, Lin Shan fell off the stone platform in a mess.
Lin Hong quickly helped Lin Shan up and brought him to Lin Mang. Lin Mang checked his injuries with a grim expression. It was a bit tragic, but fortunately, it was just a torn skin and flesh, with no broken bones.
"Hmph!" Lin Mang snorted coldly at Lin Yun on the stage.
It can be seen that Lin Yun just wanted to teach Lin Shan a lesson, but it was not yet Lin Yun's turn to teach his son a lesson.
"When we hit him later, teach him a lesson." Lin Mang whispered.
"I know, Dad." Lin Hong raised the corner of his mouth.
Sitting on the stage, Xiao Qingtan's eyes were smiling into crescent shapes, and she whispered, "Brother Lin Yun is so domineering, beat that bastard Lin Shan to death."
Although Lin Xiao and Lin Dong, father and son, did not speak, they both had faint smiles on their faces.
Lin Xiao naturally knew that Lin Shan often bullied Lin Dong in the past, but as an elder, it was not easy for him to attack the younger. Now that Lin Yun was beating up Lin Shan, as an old father, Lin Xiao was very happy to see it.
Lincoln announced that Lin Yun won and the competition continued.
The previous rounds of competition were not very entertaining because there were no strong matchups.
For the elders, only competitions above the sixth level of body tempering are interesting.
Lin Yun fought for a few more rounds, and the opponents he met were all below the sixth level of body tempering, and he easily defeated them, but the reward was only a second-grade elixir, which was not as good as Lin Shan's.
Game 5!
If we win this one, we'll be in the top five.
Before Lin Yun came on stage, his opponent had already come on stage. It was Lin Hong.
This is such a coincidence.
Both of them are outstanding talents in the clan, and they met so early.
Lin Yun came to the stage and directly established the task.
[Mission: Defeat Lin Hong. Reward: A bottle of third-grade vitality pill.]
As expected, the reward for defeating Lin Hong is quite rich. Yuanqi Pills can speed up the cultivation of Yuanli, which is exactly the pill that Lin Yun needs most now. This makes Lin Yun look at Lin Hong more favorably.
"How did you hit my brother just now? Now, I want you to pay it back tenfold."
Lin Hong sneered. He had just done a little trick and deliberately drew Lin Yun in advance, just to stop Lin Yun at the top five level.
Only the top five in the clan competition will receive rewards. He only needs to defeat Lin Yun and injure Lin Yun so that he cannot participate in the subsequent challenges. Naturally, Lin Yun will not be able to make it into the top five.
"Ten times? I'll satisfy you!" Lin Yun pursed his lips slightly, feeling that it was necessary to teach Lin Hong a lesson.
Sitting on the stage, almost everyone's eyes were focused on the competition stage between Lin Yun and Lin Hong. This was the first battle above the sixth level of body tempering.
Moreover, Lin Hong had reached the sixth level of body tempering more than half a year ago, and he is probably even stronger now.
"Brother Lin Dong, do you think Brother Lin Yun can win?" Qingtan clenched her hands and said worriedly.
"Brother Lin Yun's strength used to be no worse than Lin Hong's, and he has been practicing hard, so it shouldn't be that easy for him to lose." Lin Dong's face was serious, but he was thinking in his heart… Even if he loses, it's okay, I still have him.
He has also been practicing hard, and now no one knows his true strength.
If Lin Yun lost, he would defeat Lin Hong and surprise everyone.
On stage!
Lin Hong couldn't wait to make a move, his Yuan power surged out, his palm wind was fierce, and he pounced over to kill.
"Seventh level of body tempering!"
As soon as he made a move, his strength was seen by the elders. Many people were surprised that it was rare in the entire Qingyang Town for someone to break through the seventh level of body tempering at this age.
"I have already broken through the seventh level of body tempering. Let's see what you can do to stop me this time."
Lin Hong had a very proud look on his face. He had consumed more than a dozen second-grade spiritual herbs, and even a few third-grade spiritual herbs, before he was able to break through the seventh level of body tempering. No one else had the conditions to do so.
This time his goal is to be first in the clan competition, and Lin Yun is just his stepping stone.
"You take yourself too seriously."
Lin Yun sneered, mobilized his energy, and released it with his palm. "Another seventh level of body tempering!"
There was an uproar on the stage. Although Lin Hong's reaching the seventh level of body tempering was surprising, it was within expectations. But Lin Yun also reached the seventh level of body tempering, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
The competition becomes more entertaining and uncertain.
When they are at the same level, it all depends on their martial arts attainments.
Lin Hong specialized in the Eight Desolate Palms, and had already mastered it to a high level, approaching perfection.
At this moment, Lin Hong's palm was as powerful as thunder and lightning, striking directly at Lin Yun's internal organs.
However, in Lin Yun's eyes, this palm technique was full of flaws. Although the Eight Desolate Palm was known for its strength, it was not all about strength. If one wanted to practice it to perfection, one needed to combine hardness and softness, with both hardness and softness within softness. It was not only able to attack, but also to transform strength into defense.
Lin Yun has already practiced it to perfection, so looking at Lin Hong's palm method, which is full of flaws, it's like child's play.
Lin Yun inserted one palm between Lin Hong's hands, slapped it left and right, and hit Lin Hong's wrist joints, immediately changing Lin Hong's attack route, and then he used his other palm to accumulate strength and hit out.
"Bang!"
Lin Hong was knocked to the ground in disgrace.
He stood up again in defiance, having somewhat lost his mind. He attacked madly with his palm techniques like a storm, not caring that the man in front of him was his cousin. Each of his moves was ruthless and hit directly at the vital points.
This made Lin Zhentian, Lincoln and other elders frown slightly.
However, no matter how Lin Hong attacked, Lin Yun could easily resolve it, and he used the same moves, just like a master teaching his disciple, and he could do it at will.
"What an exquisite palm technique. The Eight Desolate Palm can actually be used like this." Lin Zhentian's eyes lit up. Even he was inspired by such a smooth palm technique.
"This boy's martial arts attainments are so terrifying!" Lin Xiao murmured.
Even though he was somewhat confident in himself, he had to admit defeat.
Lin Dong was even more shocked. He also practiced the Eight Desolate Palm, but the Eight Desolate Palm performed by Lin Yun was even smoother than the shadow evolved from his stone talisman.
"Impossible, how is it possible?"
Lin Hong was shocked. The palm technique he was so proud of was so vulnerable. This deeply hit his self-confidence.
"Ten times as promised, here you go!"
Lin Yun will not show mercy. He will give Lin Hong ten times the reward by the same method he used to deal to Lin Shan.
Bang, bang, bang... dense and fast palm shadows fell on Lin Hong.
"That's enough."
Lin Mang suddenly spoke up to stop him.
"Bang!" Lin Yun stopped and kicked out. The hundred-pound iron shoe stepped on Lin Hong's chest and kicked him off the competition stage.
"Puff!" Lin Hong spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lin Mang quickly stood up to check on Lin Hong's injuries, pointing at Lin Yun and cursing, "You brat, how dare you hit me so hard."
"Uncle, I have already stopped. I didn't hurt his vital parts. I just taught him a lesson." Lin Yun replied coldly, "Lin Hong's moves just now were ruthless and hit his vital parts. If he had the upper hand, what do you think would have happened to me?"
Lin Yun is an orphan and has no elders to support him. If he is seriously injured by Lin Hong, he can only blame himself for his bad luck.
Now Lin Hong looked seriously injured, but they were mostly external injuries. The last kick hurt his internal organs, but his foundation was not damaged.
This was already the case that Lin Yun did not want to tear his face off. If he had not been concerned about Lin Mang and the elders of the clan, someone as ruthless as Lin Hong, Lin Yun would have wanted to kill him long ago, even if the other party was a brother of the same clan.
Lin Mang still had a gloomy face.
"Okay, take Lin Hong down for treatment first." Lin Zhentian said to Lin Mang with a cold face.
"Yes, Dad!"
Lin Mang didn't dare to refute and took Lin Hong out of the trial hall.
Given Lin Hong's injuries, he would not be able to recover for at least ten days or half a month, so he would miss the next competition.
He was originally a strong candidate to compete for the clan championship, but now he is not even in the top five.
There are bound to be conflicts in competitions, but the impact is minor, so let's continue.
Lin Yun stepped down victoriously. Many eyes were on Lin Yun, including Lin Zhentian, who could not hide the admiration in his eyes. They were all descendants of their lineage, and the better Lin Yun performed, the happier he would be.
As soon as Lin Yun returned to the podium, Qingtan, a little loli in a green skirt, came running over happily.
"Brother Lin Yun, you are awesome. Come on, wipe the sweat off your face."
Qingtan handed over her handkerchief with a smile.
Lin Hong said before that once he ranked among the top three in the clan competition, he would ask his grandfather for an engagement to Qingtan.
This made Qingtan very worried.
Old Master Lin Zhentian is the one who has the final say in the Lin family. If Lin Zhentian agrees, it will be difficult for Lin Xiao to refuse. So Qingtan has been spending this period of time in anxiety. She doesn't want to marry Lin Hong.
Now that Lin Yun has injured Lin Hong and made him unable to even make it into the top five, how can he still be qualified to make demands?
It can be said that Lin Yun rescued her again.
Looking at Lin Yun's resolute, masculine, angular face, Qingtan suddenly felt safe.
"Thanks!"
Lin Yun didn't think much about it. He took the handkerchief and wiped his face. It felt soft and slightly silky. When the handkerchief passed over his nose, he smelled a faint fragrance like lilac.
It smelled really good, and Lin Yun couldn't help but take a few more sniffs.
Seeing that Lin Yun was actually sucking her handkerchief, Qingtan's pink little face immediately blushed.
