Chapter 356 - Heavenly anomalies and divine power (1/2)

He had achieved great success at a young age and made booming progress in cultivation all the way, thus being praised as the most dazzling genius of Northlight Lin. What was more, he had won the 79th place in the Nation Test not long ago and been successfully admitted to the Green-deer School.

With such glaringly marvelous achievements, he had long been recognized as the only heir to Northlight Lin.

But now, instead of being able to suppress his opponent in the fight, he had been repelled and injured by Lin Xun, which simply put a great shame on him.

How could Lin Xuefeng not be angry when a lad, younger than himself and only in Heaven-gang Realm, had actually succeeded in wounding him in the duel?

“I did underestimate your strength before, but this duel is not over yet!”

Lin Xuefeng glared with frighteningly icy eyes.

He was completely enraged.

However, Lin Xun let out a casual smile.

He was fully covered in blood and with numerous wounds. With droplets of blood dripping down from his body onto the ground, he emanated an aura of formidability.

This scene made many believe that if the fighting continued, Lin Xun, who was obviously on the verge of exhaustion, would definitely be defeated.

But he should have smiled unexpectedly at such a critical moment!

Why was he laughing?

Many people around wore a sullen look. Was he jeering at them?

“Xuefeng, step down. It’s now been a hundred moves. This duel … no longer needs to continue.”

Suddenly, a majestic and deep voice sounded in the distance.

It was Lin Huaiyuan who spoke.

All those present were instantly stunned and wore an uncertain look. It was true that the battle had now exceeded a hundred moves by a strict calculation.

According to the rules, as long as Lin Xin could stay undefeated after a hundred moves, it meant he won.

All of a sudden, even Lin Xuefeng was wearing an ugly face, with anger raging in his eyes. He had clearly forgotten about this!

So … did he really have to admit defeat to a lad in Heaven-gang Realm now?

Unreconciled, Lin Xuefeng felt awful as if he had eaten a fly. His dignity and backbone all prevented him from bowing his head at the moment!

In fact, he even didn’t want the fight to stop at this moment.

If the fight really ended like this, wouldn’t it simply prove that he, Lin Xuefeng, had been defeated by a lad in Heaven-gang Realm? If this spread out, he would undoubtedly become a laughingstock in the Forbidden City!

It was a deafening silence around now.

At this moment, everyone kew why Lin Xun suddenly smiled. It belonged exclusively to the winner, and was particularly dazzling.

Lin Zhong, who was watching far away, also smiled ecstatically. He said to Lin Dahong next to him, “Hey, what do you think of my young master?”

Lin Dahong’s face darkened, obviously not expecting to be asked so bluntly.

Discomfited, he only gave a cold snort.

Lin Zhong was much happier now. He had been impressed by Lin Xun’s performance today.

He even conjectured that if the young master took part in the Nation Test, he would have cruised through it!

But before he could enjoy the pleasure for a longer time, Lin Xun suddenly said on the martial ground, “Not reconciled?”

What?

Everyone was stunned, and then their faces sank, wondering whether he was going to show off now that the duel had been over.

Lin Xuefeng snorted coldly and his face was dearly gloomy. He secretly swore that if Lin Xun dared to humiliate him with words, he wouldn’t mind breaking the rules and went straight to beat him up!

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun reined in his smile and said in a flat voice, “If you don’t accept the result, I can give you another chance to fight in ten minutes.”

What?

It caused uproar in the crowd. They could hardly believe what they had heard.

Was this lad crazy? How dare he ask for another duel with Lin Xuefeng when he had been so seriously injured?

In ten minutes!

Even if he was given two hours, it was unlikely for him to be able to recover at all!

“Your young master is quite bold.” Lin Dahong laughed out in the distance.

Now it was Lin Zhong’s turn to wear a dark face. He complained incessantly in his heart, unclear about why Lin Xun bothered to do this when he had obviously won.

Even Lin Huaiyuan, who was in the distance, could not help but wonder what this Lin Xun was planning on earth.

“Are you sure?” Lin Xuefeng was doubtful.

“A king must keep his word. Now that I’m going to be in charge of the whole Family Lin in the future, I certainly won’t joke about such thing.”

Lin answered plainly.

In charge of Family Lin!

With an inexplicable fit of anger welling up in his heart, Lin Xuefeng gritted his teeth and said, “No need to limit it to ten minutes. You can rest as long as you think you need to recover. I’ll stay with you to the end!”

A nice offer as it might seem, the words had factually made him outshone by Lin Xun.

After all, Lin Xuefeng had already lost the duel according to their previous agreement. If he insisted on having another fight at this time, it was obviously a bit dishonorable.

But anyway, they were now in Northlight Lin, no one would laugh at or satirize Lin Xuefeng if he really did it.

On the contrary, the way Lin Xun had behaved made many people present treat him with more esteem. Arrogant as he might appear, few people could match his boldness.

The whole place was in silence again, with all eyes focusing on Lin Xun, who stood there alone.

Different from their expectation, Lin Xun did not sit down cross-legged to cultivate. Nor did he take any spiritual herbs to help restore his spiritual energy. He just stood there.

With full of blood on his clothes, he propped himself on his sabre.

The wind blew over, sending his long hair fluttering in midair. There was an unspeakably glowing look on his angular face at this time.

Boom!

Suddenly, a shaft of rampant air gushed out of his body, and dashed straight into the sky, shattering the clouds in its way!
