Chapter 172: Going against the current (fourth update)
When Lin Zhen's words were heard, a burst of noise suddenly arose around.
"Is Lin really crazy? The gap in strength is so huge, what's the point of fighting?"
"Stupid, really stupid! Going up to the enemy knowing you can't win is not what a wise man would do."
"Alas! It's over. I thought Lin Zhen and his men were going to rise, but Boss Zhou just moved his fingers and completely suppressed them. From now on, they probably won't be able to rise again."
"It's also because Lin Zhen and his team are too prominent, and Boss Zhou is worried that it will affect his position."
"What? Didn't you hear what Boss Zhou said just now? Lin Zhen's girlfriend is favored by the Little Overlord. This is the Little Overlord's idea. He wants to completely suppress Lin Zhen and make his girlfriend give up."
"No way, the little bully actually did this for a woman?"
"Humph! You don't know this. She is not an ordinary woman. Not only is she extremely beautiful, but she is also the Holy Maiden of the Divine Sect. She has the highest status. Whoever marries her will be blessed!"
The chaotic noises around also affected several people in Lin Zhen's team. Lou Qingfeng was the first to say, "Boss Lin, it seems that there is no point in continuing this battle, right?"
Zhao Xiaoman also nodded: "We will definitely lose, but I will listen to Brother Lin."
Lin Zhen looked at Jiang Huai and Li Changying, "What do you think?"
Jiang Huai shrugged: "You are the boss and I listen to you, but I don't think it's necessary."
Li Changying let out a long sigh: "It's not me who destroyed our prestige. Facing the Four Gods of the Sky, we have no chance of winning. It's impossible for us to win a single match, including you, Boss Lin."
Looking at the team whose morale was somewhat low, Lin Zhen stood up and said, "You are all right. It is indeed impossible for us to win, but I think we must fight this battle."
"Why?" several people asked Lin Zhen at the same time.
"The reason is simple. We can't stay here forever. If we want to move forward, we will have to fight with the Four Gods of the Sky sooner or later. If we don't even have the courage to fight now, then we will be psychologically traumatized in the future and think that we will never be their opponent. With such thoughts at work, how can we pursue martial arts?"
Several people looked at each other, with shame showing on their faces at first, but then their expressions became firm again.
Lin Zhen suddenly turned around and pointed at the Four Gods of the Sky: "They! They are our target. Defeating them is our motivation. Let's see how strong they are today!"
"Okay! Brother Lin, you said it very well. Let's fight them!" Zhao Xiaoman was the first to speak in support.
Li Changying's face turned red. "I am still not good enough. Boss Lin, you are right. We cannot be afraid when facing a strong enemy, otherwise we will stop moving forward."
Jiang Huai clasped his fists towards Lin Zhenyi: "An idol is an idol. I have learned my lesson!"
Lou Qingfeng's expression was even more determined: "Damn it! Damn it! I'm not afraid of losing. As long as I don't die, I will start over again!"
At this time, Tong Huan asked Lin Zhen and the others to report the order of appearance, and Lin Zhen and the others quickly planned it. The first to appear was Lin Zhen, the second was Jiang Huai, the third was Li Changying, the fourth was Lou Qingfeng, and the last one was Zhao Xiaoman.
Lin Zhen was the first to go on stage. Jiang Huai and others below had a glimmer of anticipation in their hearts. The other team also had five people. In addition to the Four Gods of the Sky, the captain was still Captain Wang. Although this person was still the captain, he was actually a puppet. If Lin Zhen met him, he should still be able to win the game.
However, things went against one's wishes, and the first person to appear on the other side was actually Dong Shencai!
Li Changying's expression suddenly changed: "It's bad. Dong Shencai is the best master among the Four Gods of the Sky. Boss Lin is in danger now. Don't lose too badly."
Zhao Xiaoman got nervous when she heard this: "Is this woman the best master? But when the Four Gods of the Sky came last time, I didn't see her take action?"
"That's because she didn't bother to make a move, because the other three were enough to deal with us, and she was not used. Maybe she didn't make a move last time, so she took the lead this time, intending to take us down in three games."
"Brother Lin, be careful!" Zhao Xiaoman shouted from below.
Lin Zhen nodded at him and walked onto the stage.
Dong Shencai stood there, watching Lin Zhen walk up step by step. When Lin Zhen walked in front of her, she looked Lin Zhen up and down for a long time, then smiled and said, "Not bad, but it's far from being a good match for Su Mingyue."
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's suitable or not."
"Lin Zhen, the reason why I'm the first to come on stage is because of you. I estimated that you would be the first to come up, so I came here to teach you a lesson and let you know how huge the gap is between you and the Overlord. For a warrior, strength is everything. If you don't have the strength, you'd better not dream of someone you can never reach."
"So you think you'll win?"
"Victory is certain, but victory alone is not enough, Lin Zhen, one minute! If you can hold out against me for one minute, I will consider you a great person. Otherwise, you'd better give up forever!"
Dong Shencai raised a finger and looked at Lin Zhen with contempt.
Lin Zhen took a deep breath. He actually knew in his heart that this was a tactic of attacking the heart, which was to devalue you as worthless. Under impulse, you could not fully exert your strength. Although Dong Shencai seemed to despise him, he actually valued him in his heart.
Lin Zhen raised his hand, and a bright silver spear appeared in his hand: "No matter who you are, since we have stepped onto the ring, we are enemies. Stop talking nonsense and start!"
"Go ahead, you don't even have the ability to hit me, little brother." Dong Shencai's tone became more and more contemptuous.
"Really? Then give it a try!"
Lin Zhen jumped up and rushed towards Dong Shencai, swung out with his spear, and it rained heavily!
As the bright silver spear was swung and flashed, thousands of spear beams completely enveloped Dong's spirit.
"Flashy but not practical!" Dong Shencai said, and suddenly a long sword came out. It was a simple sword chopped down, but it was extremely sharp. The gun shadows in the sky disappeared instantly, and people saw that it was Lin Zhen's long spear that was across his body, barely blocking Dong Shencai's sword.
"Not bad, try again!" Dong Shencai remained motionless.
"Long River!" Lin Zhen was not moved at all when his spear was broken. His spear rolled over and the waves were emptied! Dong Shencai took Lin Zhen's sword and was about to taunt him when Lin Zhen's second wave arrived.
After blocking the second wave, the third wave came crashing down, endlessly, like the rising tide at sea.
"How shameless! Let me see how many of my long rivers you can take!"
Lin Zhen was so excited that the energy in his dantian exploded. The aura rose like a huge wave, more than ten meters high, and smashed down like an overwhelming force.
By the seventeenth wave, Dong Shencai's expression finally changed.
"This kid's shooting skills are not simple. If I keep defending, I might really make a fool of myself. But that's it!"
Suddenly Dong's spirit moved, and he took out his second long sword. Holding two swords, he actually found a flaw in Lin Zhen's long sword and rushed forward swiftly!
The next scene was the collision of sword light and gun shadow. Sparks flew out like raindrops. It lasted for a full ten seconds, and each of them attacked thousands of times.
The light and shadow dissipated, and Dong Shencai withdrew with his two swords on his back.
There was a huge wound on Lin Zhen’s shoulder, bleeding profusely.
"Lin Zhen, your defense is very strong, beyond my expectation, but that's all. Only 30 seconds have passed. Do you think you still have a chance?"
Lin Zhen didn't care about the cut on his shoulder at all, but sneered: "That may not be the case, you didn't take much advantage."
As he spoke, Lin Zhen waved to Dong Shencai, and suddenly a stream of blood splattered out from the other's earlobe.
"Ah! When is this happening?" Dong Shencai covered his ears in disbelief. When did he get hit by Lin Zhen?
"Just now, but the battle was so intense that the wound was so small that you didn't feel it. Dong Shencai, as a woman you should behave like a woman. Seeing that you are too stubborn, I pierced your ears so that you can wear earrings in the future. You don't have to thank me, this is what I should do."
Lin Zhen's chest kept rising and falling, but he thought in his heart that this woman was really amazing. Compressing the six levels of Dantian Qi was really not something he could resist at the moment. No matter in strength or speed, this woman actually surpassed him. Although he could temporarily resist by being as still as a mountain, he was bound to fail in the end.
Lin Zhen got such a small hole at the cost of a huge injury, otherwise he wouldn't even have the chance to hurt Dong Shencai.
There was a burst of laughter from the audience. It was all Dong Shencai's fault for speaking too confidently and now he made a fool of himself.
"Lin Zhen! You angered me, so be prepared to bear my wrath!"
The small hole made by the golden energy magically disappeared. Dong Shencai's face was as cold as ice. He no longer stood there pretending. With his eyes fixed, he actually sent a mental attack to Lin Zhen! "Ah!"
"ah!"
The two of them raised their heads almost at the same time. Lin Zhen was a little unprepared, and Dong Shencai didn't expect the backlash to be so strong. They almost felt dizzy at the same time! But they reacted at the same time. Dong Shencai showed a trace of horror in his eyes, but his movements were not slow at all. He pointed his finger at Lin Zhen, and a white breath was emitted. The temperature in the air suddenly dropped a lot. An ice knife appeared out of thin air and cut towards Lin Zhen fiercely! Whoosh! Before the knife arrived, Lin Zhen's hair even condensed a layer of frost. The ice knife wrapped in white cold air was terribly cold! "No wonder this woman is so cold. It turns out that she has absorbed the star crystal with cold attributes. This is trouble!"
Lin Zhen barely dodged the ice blade, but his body was covered with a layer of white, and a second ice blade appeared over there!
"Lin Zhen, don't try to struggle. Within the range of my ice blade, the freezing air will penetrate your bone marrow and solidify you into an ice sculpture within thirty seconds. How can you resist?"
A mental shield appeared on Lin Zhen's body, but it was shattered by the ice knife. The power of the ice knife was incredibly strong.
Swish, swish, swish, three more ice knives appeared, bringing with them groups of biting cold air, attacking from all directions! I will add the second chapter today, for the sixty monthly tickets from the book friends, and then I will repay the rewards.
