Chapter 268 Rizhao Bloodbath Arena, Heroes Gather Amidst the Wind
The next morning, just as the sun was rising.
Wu Jinlei hurriedly knocked on the gate of Mr. Hong's house.
Knock knock knock, knock knock knock.
Yue'e opened the door for him irritably, "Second Senior Brother, even if you're just here to freeload breakfast, you don't have to come this early."
"Senior brother has important business to attend to." Wu Jinlei said this and walked into the courtyard.
Mr. Hong and Lin Feng were practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard just now.
Mr. Hong was practicing when he heard a knock on the door. He immediately sat back in his wheelchair, still feeling a little upset.
"Second brother, what's the matter that's so urgent?"
Mr. Wujin Leijianhong and Lin Feng were both in the courtyard. He walked over and said, "Teacher, junior brother, something terrible has happened."
I just received news that the Dai family has changed this martial arts competition into a group battle, hiring over seventy experts to ambush and kill my junior brother. These experts are all ranked among the top one hundred on the Earth Ranking.
Lin Feng didn't pay much attention, thinking, "Just a bunch of chickens and dogs."
Lin Feng, a top expert on the Earth Ranking, also killed several of them, but he didn't find them to be anything special.
Mr. Hong reminded him, "Xiao Feng, don't be careless."
The top 100 experts on the Earth Ranking cannot be judged solely by their ranking.
Wu Jinlei said, "Junior brother, these people are not all from our Sword Sect territory, and their martial arts styles are all different."
I heard that among the top experts on the Earth Ranking this time are people from Wuji Palace, Xingchen Pavilion and Wanfo Sect.
Wuji Palace emphasizes the cultivation of internal strength, and its subordinate Eagle Claw Sect and Divine Fist Sect are skilled in claw techniques and fist techniques.
The people of Xingchen Pavilion are skilled in hidden weapons, while the Tiandao Sect and Baiyun Temple, which are subordinate to Xingchen Pavilion, are skilled in swordsmanship and internal energy cultivation.
The martial arts of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect are very comprehensive. The Linghua Temple under the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is good at controlling demonic beasts, the Danxia Cave is good at palm and finger techniques, and the Iron Fist Sect is good at hard skills and fist techniques.
The disciples of these sects each have their own strengths and weaknesses; there's bound to be one who can restrain you.
Upon hearing this, Yue'e, who was standing nearby, clenched her fists tightly, her fingers turning white from the effort.
"Junior brother, since the Dai family has hired so many people to deal with you, you'd better not participate in the martial arts competition. Just stay here with your master and I'll cook you some good food."
"Don't worry, senior sister, these people can't handle me."
Lin Feng weighed the pros and cons in his mind. If he didn't participate in the martial arts competition, his status in the Sword Sect would not improve, and he would not be able to obtain the resources of the Sword Sect.
Of course, not having a martial arts competition wouldn't prevent his teacher from accepting him as a disciple.
A teacher holds a grand banquet when accepting a disciple. If a student is still an unknown person when the time comes, the teacher will lose face.
Since I've come all this way to the Sword Sect, I should at least make my teacher look good.
With his own strength, dealing with a group of acquired martial artists would be a piece of cake.
So Lin Feng looked at Mr. Hong and said, "Master, I have decided to participate in the martial arts competition."
Mr. Hong nodded. "Then participate. Just be careful during the competition."
"I just heard from my senior brother that these martial artists come from various sects, large and small, so they must all have impressive backgrounds."
Mr. Hong waved his hand, "This is not something you should be considering."
No matter what their background is, if they want to kill you, you are free to kill them.
If you show mercy to someone who wants to kill you, your enemy will become even more ruthless.
Only by inflicting heavy losses and making them fearful will they hesitate to act rashly.
"Disciple understands!"
Lin Feng understood the reasoning Mr. Hong was giving, but he was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble for his sect, which is why he asked the question.
Just then, footsteps approached, and the senior brothers and sisters who had been waiting on the mountain all came to Mr. Hong's courtyard.
Carrying his halberd, Hong Batian hurriedly said, "Teacher, I heard that the Dai family..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mr. Hong scolded him, "So impetuous! You're all getting on in years, yet you're not as composed as your junior brother."
The second son has already spoken about the Dai family's actions.
Your junior brother can defeat a Xiantian martial artist, so why would he be afraid of a Houtian martial artist?
Since you're here, why don't you stay for a meal? After you eat, we can go to the Blood Battle Arena to watch your junior brother's duel.
Since Mr. Hong had already said so, Lin Feng's other senior brothers and sisters didn't say anything more.
After breakfast, Lin Feng's senior brothers and sisters went back to gather people.
Lin Feng changed into a black brocade robe with silver dragon patterns.
Wearing this brocade robe signifies that Lin Feng is a core disciple of Cloud Sword Peak.
Even close friends in the martial arts world would have to give him some face just because of this dragon-patterned brocade robe.
After straightening Lin Feng's collar, Yue'e said with a smile, "Not bad, Junior Brother's appearance is no less than Master's when he was young."
Lin Feng smiled to himself, thinking, "Master wasn't even born when he was young, do you know how handsome he was?"
Senior Sister Yue'e has actually learned how to flatter, and she even flattered two people with a single sentence.
Yue'e pushed Mr. Hong's wheelchair, and Lin Feng walked side by side with Mr. Hong toward the arena.
This time, the competition was not held on the regular arena, but on the Blood Battle Arena outside the Four Peaks.
This Blood Battle Arena is a fighting arena within the Sword Sect where grudges are settled through martial arts competitions; once you step onto the arena, it's a matter of life and death.
The Dai family's choice of this arena reveals their sinister intentions.
The three of them had only been gone a short while.
Wu Jinlei followed with two thousand hemp-clad guards.
Yue'e turned around and asked, "Second Senior Brother, why did you bring so many people?"
"Of course it's to boost our junior brother's morale. We need to overwhelm the enemy with our momentum."
Before long, Hong Batian and Ji Yunfeng each led three to five hundred men to catch up with Mr. Hong.
Although they did not hold official positions, Mr. Hong assigned them hundreds of subordinates.
Hong Batian looked at the densely packed group of guards in hemp clothing and said, "Second Senior Brother, you still have more men."
Wu Jinlei raised his head and said with a smile, "Don't you even know what position your brother holds?"
As they approached their destination, Senior Sister Zhu Linghua led three thousand armored soldiers to join the main force.
More than 5,000 people marched forward in a grand procession.
The group attracted a crowd of onlookers.
"What's happening here?
Why did Yun Jianfeng send out so many people?
"I've heard that Cloud Sword Peak and Earth Sword Peak have always been at odds."
Is Yun Jianfeng about to engage in a decisive battle with the Dai family?
It's not that time yet.
I heard that Mr. Hong's newly accepted disciple participated in this Sword Sect Grand Competition and fought his way from the county town all the way to the Sword Sect.
This Sword Sect Grand Competition was hosted by the Dai family.
The Dai family will definitely find a way to crush Mr. Hong's young disciple in the ring.
"Mr. Hong is afraid that his disciple will suffer losses, so he brought so many people with him. Mr. Hong really values this disciple."
"It is said that Mr. Hong's young disciple is quite extraordinary."
A few days ago, a Xiantian expert from the Dai family died; it's possible this kid was responsible.
"A martial artist who has acquired skills can defeat a martial artist who has innate skills?"
If this is true, then this kid is incredibly talented.
"On the same day that the innate expert of the Dai family died, the four young masters of the Dai family were ambushed, two of whom died and two were crippled."
It's said that the Dai family also suspects this person.
"This guy seems like a tough character."
……
When Mr. Hong and his group arrived at the arena, there were only a few people around the platform.
The Blood Battle Arena is comparable to a football field, and the surrounding stands can accommodate more than 10,000 people.
Mr. Hong's group occupied four-tenths of the entire stands.
When the people from the Dai family who had come first saw that so many people had come from Mr. Hong's side, they went back to call for help.
Before long, more than 5,000 people from the Dai family arrived and sat directly opposite Mr. Hong's group.
Between the two groups were the other three families of the Sword Sect, as well as martial artists from other sects and Jianghu figures who were qualified to watch the battle.
The entire stands were packed, and many people had to stand.
镗镗镗.
The sound of the gong signaled that the martial arts competition was about to begin.
Lin Feng walked to the edge of the arena.
A gust of wind blew by, ruffling Lin Feng's hair and stirring his robes.
Upon hearing the gong, the other martial artists who were about to take the stage also moved toward the edge of the arena.
Lin Feng glanced around and saw that there were over a hundred people standing at the edge of the arena.
Lin Feng took a deep breath. No matter how many people there were, he would not let any of the martial artists who stepped onto the stage today go.
