Chapter 102: The Alchemist Pool, Solo Battle Against Yue Feng
Even though it seemed that Xia Wanjin didn't delve deeply into his daughter's slightly different attitude towards Lin Yan compared to others, it was clear that the most important matter at the moment was the battle for the Alchemist Pool!
As for the rest, it could be postponed for now.
Therefore, Xia Wanjin quickly withdrew his gaze and intended to announce the start of the battle for the Alchemist Pool.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The Blood Wolf Gang had already made ample preparations.
Seemingly confident in their own strength, they believed that victory in the battle for the Alchemist Pool was already within their grasp. Consequently, the members of the Blood Wolf Gang appeared rather impatient, eager to start and finish the fight quickly, and then savor the fruits of their victory.
Ahead of Lin Yan and the others, three men and two women had already stepped forward.
Among the two men, one was dressed in white, handsome in appearance, with a gentle smile on his face, standing among the group. He seemed somewhat out of place compared to the fierce demeanor of the other Blood Wolf Gang members.
As for the other man, dressed in gray, his face was pale with a grim expression, presenting a stark contrast to the man in white. Standing there, he seemed to carry a deep-seated grudge.
The remaining woman, while also beautiful, was not as stunning as Xia Zhilan. At most, she was on the same level as Xie Yingying.
"Brother Lin Yan, these are our opponents this time."
"The one in white is Yue Feng, the son of Yue Shan from the Blood Wolf Gang. He is currently a powerhouse at the late stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm and is quite well-known in Flame City."
"The woman is Yue Ling, equally talented but slightly weaker than Yue Feng."
"As for the last person, he should also be brought by the Blood Wolf Gang, at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, but still acceptable."
Lin Yan nodded slightly upon hearing this and quickly withdrew his gaze.
Actually, for him, it didn't matter who he fought against. Winning was the only outcome. Therefore, these people didn't deserve much attention from him.
"Enough with the nonsense, who's going to fight?"
While Lin Yan was conversing with Xia Zhilan, Yue Ling, who appeared somewhat arrogant, had already taken a step forward. Holding a red whip in her hand, she walked out and snapped it against the ground, then said coldly.
Seeing this, Xia Zhilan frowned slightly, gave Lin Yan a glance, then walked up herself. She didn't show any favorable attitude toward Yue Ling either, saying, "In such a hurry to embarrass yourself?"
"Heh, who knows who will be embarrassed later." Yue Ling only snorted coldly in response.
Then, everyone's gaze turned to Xia Wanjin and Yue Shan.
"Now that everyone is ready, let the battle for the Alchemist Pool begin!"
With Xia Wanjin and Yue Shan's announcement, the others made way for the two women.
As for the two women in the center, upon hearing that the match had begun, they both released their elemental energy. Then, each wielding their weapons, they quickly engaged in combat.
Their fight was intense, both being martial artists at the late stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm. Therefore, their exchanges were quite spectacular, with their weapons clashing continuously, and powerful martial arts techniques being employed. For a moment, the sound of intense collisions echoed, and strong elemental energy splashed outward.
After observing for a moment, Lin Yan quickly withdrew his gaze. Although Yue Ling was not weak, it was clear that Xia Zhilan had the upper hand in this match. Therefore, her victory was not unexpected.
"The first round, victory for the Ten Thousand Gold Chamber of Commerce!"
Sure enough, not long after they continued fighting, Xia Zhilan successfully defeated her opponent.
As Xia Zhilan kicked her opponent to the ground and pointed her sword at Yue Ling's neck, the two referees for this battle immediately announced the result.
Xia Zhilan returned to Lin Yan's side, and upon seeing this, Lin Yan praised her, "Zhilan, your performance just now was excellent. Your strength is formidable."
Xia Zhilan, with a rare blush on her delicate face, though she was accustomed to others' praise, still felt a sense of joy upon hearing Lin Yan's words. A light smile appeared on her exquisite face as she said to Lin Yan, "Thank you for the compliment, Brother Lin Yan. But compared to you, Zhilan is still far behind."
Lin Yan shook his head with a smile, "You, don't underestimate yourself. You're really good."
Upon hearing this, Xia Zhilan couldn't help but burst into laughter again.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Yue Ling's defeat made the situation for the Blood Wolf Gang somewhat difficult.
Seeing this, Yue Shan raised his eyebrows and said to the elegant man beside him, "Feng'er, it's your turn."
"Okay."
Yue Feng nodded with a smile, then quickly stepped forward. His gaze first swept over Lin Yan before settling on Liu Yi, saying, "Liu Yi, it's your turn."
Upon hearing Yue Feng's call, Liu Yi couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.
In fact, considering Yue Shan's strength, Liu Yi didn't have the confidence to defeat him. After all, the latter's strength was among the top of the young generation in Flame City. Even if he fought, he would most likely lose.
Therefore, in the previous battles for the Alchemist Pool, the Ten Thousand Gold Chamber of Commerce would simply concede defeat when facing Yue Feng. After all, there was really no one who could beat him.
As Liu Yi was about to step forward this time.
Lin Yan placed a hand on Liu Yi's shoulder and said, "Let me handle this."
"If I take him down here, there's no need for a third match to begin."
With that, Lin Yan prepared to step forward.
Upon seeing this, Xia Zhilan and the others were a bit surprised.
But in the end, Xia Zhilan reminded Lin Yan, "Be careful, Yue Feng's strength is formidable!"
Lin Yan just smiled faintly in response, "Even if he's strong, can he surpass me?"
Then, he quickly walked up to Yue Feng.
"You're very arrogant."
Yue Feng naturally heard Lin Yan's earlier words. Originally, he thought the other party had just found a scapegoat to send out and intended to leave Liu Yi to deal with their last person.
He didn't expect Lin Yan to directly challenge him.
Therefore, Yue Feng frowned slightly at this moment and said, "Among the young generation in Flame City, there are not more than three who can defeat me."
"And you're not one of them."
Lin Yan just smiled faintly in response, "Try and you'll find out."
"Then let's give it a try."
Yue Feng didn't continue with the idle chatter and directly took out a dark red long spear. With a flick of his arm, numerous spear flowers blossomed, inadvertently revealing a decent spear technique.
"Fancy moves." Lin Yan commented calmly, showing no signs of concern.
"The second round, the match begins!"
The referee's voice quickly fell.
As the referee's voice faded, Yue Feng's foot quickly stomped on the ground.
Then, before everyone could react, Yue Feng's figure had already flashed in front of Lin Yan.
Holding the long spear, he thrust forward violently. This spear thrust directly aimed at Lin Yan's vital point.
But Lin Yan seemed unperturbed by this.
Who had he been dealing with all this time? Leopard with small elemental yuan realm, Wei Tong at the late stage of the Elemental Yuan Realm. Their strengths were far below that of Yue Feng, a martial artist at the late stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm.
Therefore, facing Yue Feng's attack at this moment, although he was considered outstanding among the late stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, Lin Yan didn't see him as anything special.
Lin Yan merely extended a finger to block Yue Feng's attack.
Clang! Lin Yan's finger hit the side of the spear, effortlessly neutralizing the attack. Not only that, but with a powerful force, he even pushed Yue Feng's body back, forcing him to retreat step by step.
This move left everyone, except for Xia Zhilan, Xuan Su, and Liu Yi, who had seen Lin Yan's strength, stunned! Where did this kid come from, such a monster?
