Chapter 40 (2/2)

“Lin Han’s here!”

Someone who noticed Lin Han announced out loud.

The countless Outer Residence disciples who were there to spectate were in an uproar.

Even the Inner Residence disciples on the stone pillars were shocked when they saw the green-robed man walking into the Inner Residence.

After all, Lin Han earned himself the title of the king of the rookies from the Outer Residence Competition and became quite popular in the Lin Clan Sect Residence.

“I’m too late…” Lin Han’s expression turned dull.

“Lin Han, quick, get into the survival arena!”

A familiar voice!

Lin Han turned to find that it was the Inner Residence elder who hosted the Outer Residence Competition.

He was urging Lin Han with his expression.

‘Get into the survival arena?’

Lin Han’s eyes brightened immediately. He performed his body technique to make his way to the huge blood-covered survival arena.

“Lin Han stepped into the arena at the last moment, even though he’s late. As the resident sect elder, I am granting him this opportunity,” The Inner Residence elder mentioned.

He had had a favorable opinion of Lin Han all along, thus he naturally wanted to help him.

As such, Lin Han was grateful. He bowed at the Inner Residence elder.

He knew that the elder would have driven out anyone else who was late.

“Lin Han?! He… He’s still alive?!”Read more chapters at Listnovel.com

The person who was the most shocked at that moment was none other than Lin Badao on the spectator’s stands.

Seeing Lin Han returning unscathed with a powerful aura surrounding him, he broke out in cold sweat.

When Lin Han walked toward the survival arena, he looked at the fifty stone pillars.

He saw the hopeful looks from Lin Ruyan and Lin Yan, as well as the strange looks from the other Inner Residence disciples.

“I think that the sect residence’s rules mustn’t be broken. Since Lin Han disregarded the law by being late to the Martial Arts Tea Party, he shouldn’t be allowed to participate in it!” Without warning, a cold voice was heard.

Following that, the crowd looked over.

It was Lin Badao!

His expression was gloomy.

This was because Lin Han was a huge threat to him. If he were to take part in the Martial Arts Tea Party, he could easily enter the Inner Residence.

It would be troublesome to kill Lin Han if he became an Inner Residence disciple.

Looking at Lin Badao’s gloomy face, Lin Han was aware of his scheme as well.

However, he did not reveal his grudge between him and Lin Badao.

Firstly, he was still an insignificant disciple. If he were to reveal it, nobody would believe him, and it would cause him more trouble instead.

Secondly, he was determined to kill Lin Badao, thus he did not want to act rashly and alert him. He needed to keep his plans secret so that nobody would suspect him.

Thirdly, Lin Wuya had been killed by his own ice arrow. If he disclosed this secret, Lin Badao would likely publicize the fact that it was his doing, and they would both be punished in the end.

Lin Han decided to keep quiet.

On the other hand, Lin Badao seemed to think that Lin Han was afraid, thus he objected to the Inner Residence elder’s suggestion and was adamant about casting Lin Han out of the Martial Arts Tea Party.

After all, there was a great disparity between an Outer Residence disciple and an Inner Residence disciple.

Upon hearing that, the Inner Residence elder was displeased.

He did not expect someone else from the sect residence’s upper level to throw Lin Han out of the tea party.

‘This is going to be tough.’

The Inner Residence elder smiled bitterly at Lin Han.

“Lin Han? The remarkable subdivision disciple from the Outer Residence Competition?”

The crowd was in shock as they looked over.

It was the resident master who spoke!

In a commanding, majestic tone, he said, “The Lin Clan Sect Resident isn’t a place that stubbornly adheres to outworn rules! Lin Han, you’re the Outer Residence’s Greatest Disciple, so you have the privilege of a second chance. I now permit you to enter the survival arena to challenge an Inner Residence disciple, but you only have one chance, you must consider your choice carefully!”

Lin Badao’s face instantly changed.

“Residence Master, Lin Han is very late, we can’t…”

“My word is final!”

The residence master glared at Lin Badao.

“Yes, Residence Master!”

Lin Badao quickly dropped the idea. He froze with a terrible look on his face as he watched Lin Han stepping onto the survival arena.
