Facing the four opponents, Lin Zhen still felt somewhat confident.
Although there were four opponents, and their combined absolute strength definitely exceeded his own, there were many objective factors that could be exploited, such as Zhang Sicheng, who didn’t join forces with the other three right away due to his pride.
In addition, Lin Zhen had some hidden skills that could come in handy right now.
He wasn’t trying to show off, but under these circumstances, he had to react and give those who looked down on him a hard slap in the face.
The three martial artists from the other side charged forth, and Lin Zhen held his spear single-handedly. As the first person was about to reach him, Lin Zhen suddenly raised his hand – Gravity control!
“Get the hell down!”
Lin Zhen sidestepped, and the martial artist was unable to control his body, his jumping figure suddenly accelerating in mid -air, and he actually dove straight under the stage!
At this moment, Fu Haisheng happened to look towards the stage, and the martial artist slammed into him directly. The two collided solidly and rolled on the ground together.
Lin Zhen used gravity control to neutralize one, and with another push of his hand, he opened his palm towards the second martial artist: “Kneel down!”
It was like countless needles passing through his legs, and the man screamed miserably, unable to continue his attack, landing awkwardly on the ground and tumbling off the stage.
With this injury, it would be impossible to recover without at least several months of rest.
With just one pull and one push, Lin Zhen had taken care of two opponents, and the third person had just leaped in front of him.
Lin Zhen’s silver spear was covered in a layer of gold, and the opponent’s weapon was just a thin long sword. He swung his spear horizontally: “The third one!”
“Clang! ”
A huge impact sound erupted as the long sword was swept away by Lin’s spear, and the spear shaft struck the man in the abdomen. His body flew into the air and followed the footsteps of his two companions, rolling off the stage.
One pull, one push, and one horizontal sweep. After three moves, all three opponents had left the stage, leaving only the dumbfounded Zhang Sicheng.
Lin Zhen took a step towards Zhang Sicheng, walking slowly. Zhang Sicheng, however, felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him, making him involuntarily weak at the knees.
“Impossible…impossible…this is absolutely impossible. How could you be so strong? Just now, you were clearly a shrimp, how did you suddenly turn the tables?”
“What about shrimp and fish? I think you must be craving some, so let me send you away from the Star Fruit Tree, go find some fish and shrimp to eat.”
“I don’t believe it, I absolutely don’t believe it, you clearly didn’t have any power…”
“Then give it a go!”
Lin Zhen’s eyes focused, unleashing another Mental Shock!
The Mental Shock struck Zhang Sicheng’s mind, and he felt as if someone had stabbed his brain with a needle, causing him to scream out loud while clutching his head.
“Ahh!!!”
Lin Zhen showed no mercy, enduring the minor backlash. the silver spear came down overhead: “Waterfall!”
With both hands wielding the spear, and the gold aura empowering it, the silver spear looked like it was cast from gold and brought with it a torrential wave that smashed down on his face.
Zhang Sicheng endured the severe pain in his mind and hastily raised his blade to block, but how could he withstand it?
“Clatter! ”
The ring blade shattered, and the spear shaft struck his shoulder, breaking the bones!
As the bone-breaking sound rang out, Lin Zhen approached and grabbed his collar: “Who’s the shrimp now?”
Zhang Sicheng was in so much pain that he couldn’t speak. With a flick of Lin Zhen’s hand, he was tossed off the stage like a cloud-riding wizard!
Another move! The battle was resolved in just one move!
This unexpected reversal left everyone in the audience dumbfounded.
How did Lin Zhen, who was just considered a pushover, suddenly become so fierce? How did he throw his opponents off the stage without even touching them? What was going on with the countless golden rays coming from his hands?
If the first two moves could be considered luck, his last two spear moves were a true display of strength. Zhang Sicheng was considered a master, but he was defeated by Lin’s spear without even being able to withstand a single hit.
Zhang Sicheng’s stumbling appearance looked eerie, but no one knew that Lin Zhen also had Mental Shock up his sleeve.
Lin zhen stepped down from the stage ana came to Brother Guang’s side: “Brother Guang, we’ve succeeded, right?”
“Yes, you’ve succeeded.” Brother Guang was also surprised, but he soon congratulated Lin Zhen: “From now on, the third group on the left branch is yours. Every Sunday is your picking day. On this day, you can go to the Ant Nest to pick Star Crystals, but you need to hand over a Comet Crystal as a fee for each picking day.”
“Do I have to hand over one more? Who should I give it to?” Lin Zhen asked.
“Of course, you should give it to me. My purpose here is to make sure that you guys won’t be bothered by the people of Sky Dome. You can choose not to agree, but then you can’t stay here anymore.”
Lin Zhen looked around, and it was clear that everyone around agreed with Brother Guang’s proposal.
Lin Zhen remained silent. One Comet Crystal was just one Comet Crystal. He believed that within a day, his gains would be more than just one Comet Crystal.
Seeing Lin Zhen’s agreement, Brother Guang continued, “Now you are ranked third in the group. Starting from today, other groups can challenge you on the next Saturday. If you successfully keep your position, you can choose whether to challenge the second-ranked group next week. ”
Lin Zhen nodded to show that he understood.
“Then there’s nothing else. Tomorrow is Sunday, and you can go and collect Star Crystals.”
After Brother Guang finished explaining, Jiang Huai, on the other side, also proposed a team battle.
However, this time Jiang Huai’s team didn’t succeed. Although he performed very bravely on the platform and defeated three of the opponents one after another, his teammates were just too lousy, and they were eventually knocked off the platform.
After their failure, Jiang Huai came over to Lin Zhen, “Lin Zhen, I think our initial choice was wrong. Under such a challenge system, only the strongest team can keep moving forward. Although you’ve reached third place, it’s impossible for you to continue to advance. Moreover, in the face of challenges from other teams, individual battles alone with you and Su Saintess won’t be enough to win.”
Lin Zhen also agreed with Jiang Huai’s view, but now the die was cast, and reorganizing the team could only happen a month later.
Jiang Huai continued, “I’ll cultivate nearby for this month. If you haven’t found suitable teammates in a month, we’ll team up.”
“Alright, it’s settled.”
Jiang Huai left, and Fu Haisheng, Sun Tie, and Luo Zhen came over.
Lin Zhen looked at them and asked Fu Haisheng, “Did you think I would lose?”
Fu Haisheng’s face turned red and white. He didn’t expect Lin Zhen to turn the tables in that situation and rushed to find Su Mingyue, who was now in a terrible situation.
He murmured some explanations, but Lin Zhen didn’t listen to him and instead patted him on the shoulder, “You don’t have to say anything. If you dare to covet my woman, be prepared to face my wrath. From now on, you’re no longer a member of this small team. If it weren’t for the fact that killing isn’t allowed here, you’d already be a corpse.”
Fu Haisheng raised his head wanting to argue, but thinking of Lin Zhen’s terrifying strength, he ultimately didn’t have the courage and left with his head down.
With only four people left in the team, if they were to face challenges from other teams, they’d be one person short in the group battles, and they’d lose one round by default in individual battles.
Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue had already proven their strength, so if other teams chose individual battles, they would have no chance of winning after losing one round first.
However, a reduction of team members does happen from time to time.
Lin Zhen did this because he’d rather fight four against five in a team battle than keep a ticking time bomb in his team.
In any case, Lin Zhen didn’t want to lose the third spot within a month.
Without a ranking, there would be no chance to collect Star Crystals.
Just looking at the eyes of the Martial Artists around him, Lin Zhen knew that even though he and Su Mingyue had shown significant strength, the Martial Artists here were no pushovers. The Lin Zhen team, with its incomplete roster, would undoubtedly be a target for other Martial Artist teams in the coming weeks, making it difficult to retain their position.
Lin Zhen looked at the somewhat nervous Sun Tie and Luo Zhen but remained silent. They could temporarily fill the roster until Jiang Huai returned, and then they would reorganize the team.
Zhang Sicheng’s group had gone to heal their wounds, and as long as they weren’t crippled, no one would easily leave the place, especially the senior students.
Being a part of the third group on the left, Lin Zhen occupied a tree hole near the water, which served as a temporary residence.
Sun Tie and Luo Zhen didn’t bother Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue, and they stayed not far away after getting their food.
Su Mingyue’s face was slightly pale. In order to save Lin Zhen, she took a few hard hits, which caused her some damage and needed time to recover.
Seeing Su Mingyue’s pale and pretty face, Lin Zhen’s heart softened. Thinking of how she fearlessly blocked Zhang Sicheng’s attack for him, even though he didn’t need it, it still moved him deeply.
Lin Zhen didn’t disturb Su Mingyue’s rest but instead walked out of the Ant Nest’s range.
Brother Guang glanced at Lin Zhen but didn’t say anything, as it wasn’t forbidden to leave the Ant Nest.
After leaving the Ant Nest, Lin Zhen walked a distance and then took out his locator.
There were two light points on his locator, one being Tang Yu’s location, which was far away in the northeast, probably in a hidden place to recover from her injury.
The other light point was Fu Haisheng’s location, which wasn’t far from Lin Zhen.
When Lin Zhen patted Fu Haisheng’s shoulder, he had inserted a tiny tracking needle into his clothes.contemporary romance
When Lin Zhen was in trouble, this guy chose to kick him when he was down. Kicking him out was just for Su Mingyue to see; he never intended to let this guy live.
Following the direction of the light points, Lin Zhen began to track Fu
