Chapter 273 - Rising to Prominence (1/2)

Edited by Lord Immortal

Bang!

Tan Long flew out uncontrollably and fell hard on the ground outside the platform.

He was so frightened that he couldn’t believe he was so easily defeated by a single saber strike! Lin Xun was as terrible as he was in the rumors!

At this time, the sound of breathing was heard in the whole hall. They were all scared by this scene. Initially, they believed Tan Long had put on a false front, and his real fighting prowess was able to compete with Lin Xun.

Who would have thought that Lin Xun would crush Tan Long out with only one blow, which was easier than swatting flies!

It fucking ended too fast!

Many people were stunned and could not believe that the anticipated battle was over, just like that.

On the White Jade platform, Wei Lingzhen and Du Dongtu looked at each other and showed a bitter smile. This Lin Xun was really more powerful than they had expected!

Governor Liu Wujun squinted his eyes but did not say anything. Tan Long’s defeat was indeed unexpected. Combined with the combat effectiveness shown by Lin Xun in the past, it was reasonable for him to win so easily.

“Damn it, this fellow is an evil star!”

“I know Tan Long; he is a first-rate figure in the Human-gang Realm. Now, he is defeated in a single move. We can imagine how powerful Lin Xun really is!”

Those who had not yet come to the stage could not calm down at the moment. Although the battle ended quickly and did not allow them to see Lin Xun’s real fighting power, it could be seen from his absolute momentum that the ordinary top-ranking figures couldn’t be Lin Xun’s opponents at all!

Perhaps, only the peak ones in the Earth-gang Realm were able to suppress Lin Xun!

The whole venue was silent, and all eyes were looking at Lin Xun standing on the platform with strange expressions and fluctuating moods.

At this moment, the battles that were going on in the other ninety-nine platforms seemed to have gone unnoticed.

In this tranquility, Lin Xun suddenly straightened his body. His eyebrows were like blades, and his eyes were like electricity, exuding an aura of considering the whole world beneath his feet.

What was he going to do?

Many people had their pupils shrink.

Lin Xun lifted the huge saber in his hand and put it in front of him. The dark blade brought about a long and bright ring of light.

Lin Xun looked at the whole site, gathered his breath in the lung, and announced, “Aha, It’s my pleasure to be here. In fact, the secret why I can easily win this battle is in the saber.”

The whole audience was stunned. What was Lin Xun talking about?

“Excuse me, Childe Lin Xun, where did you buy this saber?”

Someone shouted abruptly.

Lin Xun said with a smile on his face, “A nice saber can last forever, accompanying you for life. My saber is made by the Master of Spiritual Tattoos in Golden Hall. It is a powerful middle-grade Human-rank spiritual weapon, and I like it very much. After this, I’ll only choose weapons in Golden Hall!”

“Did  you say ‘Golden Hall’?”

The man yelled.

“Yes, Golden Hall!”

Lin Xun appeared serious when discussing this topic.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a lot of uproar on the site. Everyone’s expressions looked remarkably different.

“Damn, this is to promote the fame of Golden Hall!”

Someone suddenly came to his senses.

“Which Golden Hall is it? It’s… too smart to invite Lin Xun to advertise it!”

Some people were amazed.

“Bah! What a Shame! This is the Province Test, which is seen by the whole empire. Now, Lin Xun is being obsessed with money, and he publicizes something irrelevant to the test on such an occasion. What does he think of the Province Test? Does he still have the dignity and spirit of being a practitioner?”

Others were indignant.

“Why, why do I worship such an idol? His lofty image in my heart collapsed at this moment; my heart is aching.”

Many teenage girls voiced sadness and thought that Lin Xun’s action was too disrespectful and disappointing.

There were also many people who pointed their finger at Golden Hall and thought that this business was just lard-covered. They dared to put their ideas on the holy Province Test. It was a blasphemy to this grand meeting.

Wen Mingxiu, Qi Yunxiao, and the others who participated in the examination were also stunned. Was Lin Xun too poor these days? How could such a humiliating and shameful thing be done by him?

Wasn’t it easy to make money with his present reputation and strength?

Others speculated that the Golden Hall must have something to do with Lin Xun; otherwise, Lin Xun would not tarnish his name in this way.

This conjecture was quickly accepted by many people. If Golden Hall had an inseparable relationship with Lin Xun, then all this could make sense.
