Chapter 155: Battle to the Death (1/2)

When the crowd heard Lin Feng, they all started whispering amongst themselves. Many people had also heard about the scandals which occurred here and some had even witnessed these things with their own eyes.

At that moment, the faces of the young man and the man in charge of the cage drastically changed. They looked extremely cold.

When the man in charge of the cage saw that Lin Feng had returned to the viewing platform and didn’t try to come into the cage, he turned to Mu Fan and said: “Alright, since the problem is solved and you were the first to arrive at the cage, you may enter. Show everyone how majestic and heroic the students of the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue are. Show to everyone how easy it is for people like you to tame the Daemonic Fire Lion.”

Everyone was surprised. The man didn’t care at all about what Lin Feng had just said.

Lin Feng had been the first to arrive at the cage, so why was the man now saying that Mu Fan had been the first one to arrive? Lin Feng was disgusted. Besides, the man was also publicly advertising how great the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue was. Lin Feng thought that such obvious methods were pathetic.

But of course, Lin Feng’s words had made everyone furious. He had humiliated them all, and not everyone could just ignore him.

“I don’t want to hear anything else from your filthy mouth.” said the young man on the viewing platform coldly.

Lin Feng looked at him through his mask, laughed and said: “That’s the way noble cultivators do it, by cheating. If you want to give him the Daemonic Fire Lion as a present, you just decide to change the rules of the Prisoner Arena and use your influence to rig the fights… Isn’t it nice to be able to use such a grand arena to give presents to your friends?”

“Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. Directly giving him the Daemonic Fire Lion as a present will not help the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue gain prestige, so the whole purpose of this fake show has failed.” said Lin Feng coldly and indifferently. His words were getting sharper.

Most people in the crowd agreed with Lin Feng. Even though Lin Feng was being very aggressive, nobody could refute what he was saying. He had been able to force the man to give Mu Fan the right to enter the cage before Lin Feng only because the young man on the viewing platform had a high status. That was unfair. This was definitely premeditated.

The young, noble cultivator was furious. At that moment, Mu Fan looked at Lin Feng and said: “Since you’re angry about it, then why don’t we fight and the winner can go inside.”

“For what reason would I battle against you?” said Lin Feng while glancing at Mu Fan. He then indifferently said: “You never said that you wanted to battle against the lion in the first place and I arrived before you, but you still wanted to go in first by using unfair arrangements.” said Lin Feng.

Mu Fan would definitely win the battle against the Daemonic Fire Lion, but that wouldn’t be a real victory because it wouldn’t help the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue gain a better reputation. It would actually be the opposite. It would be a humiliation for the Holy Courtyard. Mu Fan didn’t want that.

Mu Fan smiled and said: “I understand now. You just have a big mouth and like to talk big, but in practice, you aren’t able to do much.”

“Exactly! Apart from a big mouth, you don’t have much else to show! You don’t even dare show your true colours.”

“Hehe, how could that liar compete with Mu Fan anyway? Mu Fan is considered as a genius at the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue. Defeating the Daemonic Fire Lion is a piece of cake for him.”

Each and every single student of the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue was bragging about how great their institute was as if they were all extremely strong, as if they were all the best cultivators in the world just because they cultivated in that institute.

Lin Feng then said: “The Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue seems be filled with the mightiest cultivators in the entire world. It seems like I was pretty ignorant!”

“Yes, he acted recklessly. He surprisingly dared to provoke Mu Fan.” More and more people firmly believed that Lin Feng was scared to fight against Mu Fan.

But at that moment, Lin Feng smiled and said: “But I am really curious to see how strong a genius of the mighty Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue really is.”

All the students of the Holy Courtyard were pleasantly surprised. Lin Feng surprisingly accepted the fight, which meant that he was going to die and they would regain their face.

Everybody looked at Lin Feng, who slowly turned around and said: “You and me go inside the cage. If you win then you get to live, but if you lose then I will kill you. How does that sound?” When Lin Feng finished talking, the entire atmosphere in the Prisoner Arena became completely silent. Everybody, especially the students of the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue, was astonished.

If you win then you get to live, but if you lose then I will kill you…

Lin Feng knew how to talk big!

Many people had their mouth wide open and simply stared blankly at Lin Feng. How cruel! How heartless! Not only had he accepted the battle, but he was proposing a battle to death. He was probably sure that he was going to win, otherwise he wouldn’t stupidly gamble with his life at stake.
