Chapter 276: A Covenant of One Move
was watched by the audience, Lin Xun was also a little uncomfortable, and smiled bitterly in his heart, if a person is famous, it is really a troublesome thing.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for a melodious bell to ring through the heavens and the earth, opening the curtain of the second round of assessment.
A total of 2,600 cultivators participated in the second round of assessment, and the rules of the assessment were the same as those in the first round, and they also needed to choose their opponents by drawing lots, and then go to the ring to face each other.
It's just that in time, it has changed from a stick of incense to half an hour!
This also means that in this second round of assessment, if the winner cannot be determined within half an hour, both sides of the battle will be eliminated.
Lin Xun's opponent in this draw is named Yue Zhongtian, a name that makes him very unfamiliar, and the battle ring is No. 49, and the order of appearance is the fourth.
In other words, Lin Xun will be in the ring with the other ninety-nine cultivators, and they will face off in the ring in the fourth arena.
Soon, the first battle began, and two hundred cultivators entered the one hundred rings in the arena and began to fight with their chosen opponents.
In the huge venue, it was completely filled with all kinds of cheers, shouts, and excited roars for a while, shaking the world and the atmosphere.
Lin Xun waited in the assessment area, looked at it slightly, and found that every cultivator he faced today could indeed be called the elite of the elite, and each one of them was extraordinary, staging one battle after another.
However, there are very few top figures who are really worth paying attention to, not that those cultivators have poor combat effectiveness, but that Lin Xun's strength has already exceeded the ordinary level too much, although the strength of these cultivators is not bad, but it can't make Lin Xun much interested at all.
Even so, Lin Xun still watched it with relish, the exercises practiced by different cultivators and the combat methods they mastered were completely different, and there were still many places that could be learned and learned.
Suddenly, there was a sneer in the distance: "Hmph, no need to remind, I know that Lin Xun is very powerful, but do you think that my Yue Zhongtian is also a vegetarian? You are afraid of Lin Xun, I am not afraid!"
There was a hint of displeasure in his voice.
Lin Xun looked over and saw that not far away, there was a group of people admonishing and reminding a thin man, but in exchange for a displeased rebuttal from the thin man.
Listening to the voice just now, it was obvious that the thin man was Yue Zhongtian, that is, Lin Xun's opponent in the second round of assessment!
I saw that this person was thin and slender, wearing a royal blue robe, his eyes were shining, and his breath was extremely fierce.
His chin was slightly raised, and there was a hint of arrogance on his face, and his gestures revealed a sense of superiority, and he was obviously an extremely proud young man.
Seeing Lin Xun's gaze coming, the corners of Yue Zhongtian's lips lifted a cold arc, and he looked at Lin Xun provocatively.
And those cultivators around Yue Zhongtian couldn't help but show a trace of unnaturalness when they saw Lin Xun noticing this, and secretly complained in their hearts that Yue Zhongtian was unconcealed, they kindly reminded this guy to be careful of Lin Xun, this guy didn't appreciate it, but he also deliberately said it, lest Lin Xun not hear it, didn't it embarrass them?
What surprised Lin Xun was that among the cultivators around Yue Zhongtian, there were Wen Mingxiu, Qi Yunxiao, Yuan Shu and others!
Seeing Lin Xun's gaze, Wen Mingxiu and the others couldn't help but avoid their gaze, as if they were afraid that Lin Xun would misunderstand, and they opened up the distance between them and Yue Zhongtian without a trace.
"It seems that this guy should also be a student of Yanxia Academy. β
Lin Xun retracted his gaze thoughtfully.
For Yue Zhongtian's provocative look, Lin Xun directly ignored it, he was not so small-bellied, and he was angry just because of a glance.
Who would have thought that Lin Xun's reaction fell in the eyes of Yue Zhongtian, but it seemed to become a kind of avoidance and retreat.
I saw him smile and strode over.
"Lin Xun, many people think that you are very difficult to mess with now, but I don't think so. β
Yue Zhongtian stood three feet in front of Lin Xun, squinting his eyes slightly, and glanced at Lin Xun with a proud attitude.
This is a naked provocation!
When Yue Zhongtian's companions saw this, they didn't change color slightly, and secretly scolded Yue Zhongtian in their hearts for having nothing to do and being too crazy.
However, they all knew that Yue Zhongtian had this kind of temper, and no one could help it.
As Lin Xun had speculated before, this Yue Zhongtian was indeed from Yanxia Academy, and he was still a celebrity.
He has just turned sixteen this year, and he already has the cultivation of the Digang Realm, although he is not as dazzling as Xue Shaolin, Yu Wenjing, Le Zhiyou, Yun Zitong and other top figures, but he can also be called a stunning first-class person.
It's just that he has a sparse and arrogant temperament, is open-mouthed, and his personality is very unlikable, and he doesn't know how much trouble he has caused in Yanxia Academy, if it weren't for his extremely outstanding cultivation talent, I'm afraid that he would have been expelled from the academy a long time ago.
At this time, seeing Yue Zhongtian's thorn, instead of listening to the reminder, he took the initiative to provoke Lin Xun, so that those cultivators from Yanxia Academy couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
There are also people who watch from the sidelines, watching all this with an attitude of watching the excitement.
But seeing that Lin Xun didn't look at Yue Zhongtian at all, he directly ignored this guy who took the initiative to step forward to provoke, feeling that the other party was obviously a little abnormal, and it was simply an insult to his IQ to worry about him.
But the more Lin Xun was like this, the more disdainful Yue Zhongtian became, and he had to inch in, aggressively: "Do you want to know, how do I evaluate you?"
"I don't want to. β
Lin Xun replied very simply.
Yue Zhongtian's expression froze, and he sneered: "You are really arrogant enough, I admit that your combat power is indeed very strong, but your personality is very unbearable, in order to make money, you do not hesitate to help a business house promote its reputation, which simply ruins the integrity and character of cultivators such as us!"
This is not just polite, it is no different from pointing at Lin Xun's nose and scolding.
Many people were stupid, they all knew that Yue Zhongtian was crazy, but they didn't expect him to be so crazy!
You must know that his opponent this time is Lin Xun, if he is beaten down by Lin Xun in the ring, how can the consequences not be serious?
But this is not the end, Yue Zhongtian sneered again and again, as if he had an arrogant attitude without a spare eye, and said: "Of course, this is your personal clown behavior, as long as it does not hinder others, forget it, but don't forget, this is a provincial examination, and you are not the only one who will be affected......!
Lin Xun finally reacted, looked at Yue Zhongtian, and interrupted, "What exactly do you want to say?"
This guy is so noisy, chirping and chirping endlessly, like an abominable fly, no matter how good his temper is, he can't stand it.
Many cultivators in the vicinity were shocked in their hearts, and the unscrupulous attack of Yue Zhongtian finally angered Lin Xun.
"This guy is simply looking for his own death! He thinks that he dares to look down on Lin Xun if he has the cultivation of the Digang Realm? is he still too young and naΓ―ve!"
Qi Yunxiao muttered in a low voice, even if he hated Lin Xun very much in his heart, he had to admit that Lin Xun was definitely a monster that could be called a demon, and all kinds of facts had already proved that whoever underestimated Lin Xun would suffer!
And Yue Zhongtian didn't know whether he was alive or dead to provoke Lin Xun, which seemed too ridiculous.
There are not many people who have the same idea as Qi Yunxiao, like Wen Mingxiu, Yuan Shu and others, they have all experienced Lin Xun's methods, and they know very well how brain-dead Yue Zhongtian's actions at this time are.
Surprisingly, in the face of Lin Xun's questioning, Yue Zhongtian said: "It's very simple, I want to make a bet with you." β
Lin Xun frowned: "What are you betting on?"
Yue Zhongtian sneered: "Within one move, you will never be able to knock me out of the ring like you did when you defeated Tan Long!"
What the is this called a gambling condition?
Everyone was stunned, almost couldn't believe their ears, this Yue Zhongtian was so arrogant just now, how could he put forward such a gambling condition...... Absurd?
You can't knock him out of the ring in one move?
If it weren't for what they saw with their own eyes, everyone thought that Yue Zhongtian was crazy, let alone Lin Xun, and they would never agree to this bullshit bet.
A trick?
Obviously, it is to retreat into advance, and deliberately make things difficult! Let yourself stand firmly in an invincible position, and an idiot will agree to this kind of thing.
In the eyes of many people, maybe Yue Zhongtian could not be Lin Xun's opponent, but if he wanted to block Lin Xun's blow without being defeated, it would be easy to do it!
Under such circumstances, the VAM submission proposed by Yue Zhongtian is absurd and completely unreasonable.
Lin Xun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he thought that since this guy was so arrogant, he must also rely on it, who would have thought that everything just now was acting, and his real purpose was actually to make a ridiculous bet with himself!
"What, are you scared? Ten moves are fine, of course, since it is a bet, there will definitely be a lottery, so take 10,000 gold coins as a bet. β
Seeing that Lin Xun didn't speak, Yue Zhongtian became more and more proud, and his expression was full of disdain.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Xun would refuse, they saw Lin Xun smile slightly, and said, "Okay, I promise you, 10,000 gold coins, right, you are ready for me!"
Yue Zhongtian's eyes lit up, Lin Xun actually agreed!
Others thought that he was extremely arrogant just now, and it was an extremely stupid act to provoke Lin Xun again and again, but only he knew that he was actually doing all this for this bet!
No matter how crazy Yue Zhongtian is, he is not a brainless fool, otherwise it would be impossible to have today's strength and reputation, he has already determined that if he fights against Lin Xun, the chance of winning is extremely slim, in this case, how to minimize the impact of defeat is what Yue Zhongtian has to consider.
The gambling contract proposed this time seems to be shameless and absurd, but as long as Lin Xun agrees, Yue Zhongtian is fully confident that he will win this bet, so even if he loses to Lin Xun in the second round of assessment, at least it is not a shame!
Even speaking of which, he also won Lin Xun in the bet!
This is Yue Zhongtian's calculation, seeing that Lin Xun finally agreed, not to mention how proud and excited he was in his heart.
It's just that Lin Xun's next sentence made his heart tremble.
"The gambling conditions do not have to be changed to ten moves, one move is enough. β
Lin Xun put down this sentence and turned around and left the area.
When Yue Zhongtian heard this, he should have been even more excited and happy, but he didn't know why, when he saw Lin Xun's beautiful figure go away, he had a strong bad premonition in his heart.
