"That will have to wait until after the celebration ends."
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said.
The troublesome guys were all taken care of, and the celebration proceeded as normal afterward.
Luo Jiang maintained a gloomy expression throughout, especially when he saw all the martial artists he had arranged fall off the stage; his expression became even more terrifyingly gloomy.
Damn it!
It's all that brat's fault! If it weren't for him, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
"President?"
A young martial artist received the message and rushed to Luo Jiang's side.
"Go, arrange for a few men to find an opportunity to kill Lin Feng and his men!"
"But……"
The martial artist glanced at the arena and whispered, "It's still during the celebration. If we make a move, won't it arouse suspicion?"
"Then let's wait until the celebration is over before making a move. Stop being so stubborn!"
Luo Jiang was furious and glared at him fiercely.
At this moment, other martial artists also noticed something was wrong.
"Have you noticed? There seem to be a lot of dark horses this year."
"Several of the martial artists I bet on have been eliminated! My Hai Shi!!"
"Besides Lin Feng and his group, there are some familiar faces. I remember during the last Dragon Gate celebration, these guys couldn't even make it into the top 36. How did they make it to the finals this year?"
"That's right, their cultivation levels don't seem to have improved much compared to back then, do they?"
Of course, without concrete evidence, they could only have suspicions and would not directly point out that the two chambers of commerce were behind it. Some people who had already heard rumors looked at each other and turned their attention to Luo Jiang and Fan Xing. The former looked grim, while the latter remained as calm and composed as ever.
Lin Feng made it to the final battle circle almost without any pressure.
This time, his opponent is Ye Lingya.
"In my dictionary, Ye Lingya, there is no such word as admitting defeat. So, Brother Lin, please don't hold back and have a good fight with me, how about it!"
Ye Lingya stretched his arms and said with a smile.
"nature."
Lin Feng was more than happy to hear him say that.
"Sword Formation!"
"Is this the essence of swordsmanship?"
Looking at the terrifying sword energy that covered the sky, Ye Lingya was amazed.
He hadn't felt anything when he saw Lin Feng unleash his sword intent, but now that he was standing opposite Lin Feng, he could truly feel the terrifying pressure. It was no wonder that the wooden puppet was so frightened that it almost fell off the stage.
"What a terrifying sword formation!"
But his Cliff-Breaking Divine Arm was no joke. A pale blue glow appeared on Ye Lingya's right arm, and under everyone's gaze, his right arm gradually transformed into a shape resembling a beast's claw, like an arm armor, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression.
Ye Lingya's expression suddenly sharpened, and then he threw a punch at Lin Feng.
A piercing sonic boom rang in his ears, but Lin Feng neither dodged nor avoided it. He raised the Primordial Immortal Sword in his hand, and countless sword energies surged out!
Jingle bells!
"That arm is quite mysterious; it actually managed to block over a thousand sword energies from Brother Lin with its bare hands!"
Shen Xiaohong looked surprised.
"It must be some kind of magical artifact. Ye Lingya is really lucky to have obtained such a divine treasure."
Shen Subai glanced at him.
With her keen eyesight, she could naturally tell that this was not a magical artifact, but rather a mutation of her own body. However, what was puzzling was that this arm did not fit Ye Lingya perfectly at the moment, and there was a faint sense of disharmony.
"Was it transplanted later in life? This arm is too strong; this guy doesn't seem to have fully integrated it into himself yet."
Shen Suobai shook his head, losing interest.
She had seen too many similar methods; a mere arm transplanted from who-knows-where did not interest her.
This man is no match for Lin Feng.
As expected, although Ye Lingya had a great momentum, he couldn't get close to Lin Feng at all. Countless sword energies formed an impenetrable barrier, protecting Lin Feng inside. Ye Lingya's Cliff-Breaking Divine Arm had a limited range of attack and was not as flexible as the sword energies. For a moment, he was in a rather awkward situation. Even if he used all his strength, he could not break through the encirclement created by Lin Feng. Instead, he trapped himself in the countless sword energies.
"This formation..."
Ye Lingya was somewhat annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.
The system notifications kept ringing in his ears. Lin Feng smiled, completely using his superior status to toy with Ye Lingya. The latter was completely unaware that he had almost exhausted all his energy just by resisting the sword energy.
Finally, Lin Feng gently thrust out his sword.
"go!"
Zzzzz!
As the sword flashed, blood spurted from Ye Lingya's chest. He clutched his chest and staggered back several steps, just managing to step out of the arena.
Ye Lingya froze for a moment, then gave a bitter laugh.
Lin Feng wins!
The elder referee's somewhat helpless voice slowly rang out.
"I admit defeat. In advance, I congratulate Brother Lin on becoming the number one person in this year's Rising Dragon Gate Celebration!"
The remaining few were not as strong as him. Although Shen Xiaohong and Mo Ye were somewhat competitive, given their relationship with Lin Feng, it would be good enough if they didn't admit defeat.
Just as Ye Lingya had predicted, Mo Ye conceded defeat decisively after drawing Lin Feng's name. Although Shen Xiaohong was unwilling to accept defeat and fought Lin Feng, he ended up losing, just like Ye Lingya.
"The champion of this Dragon Ascension Gate is Lin Feng!"
The referee elder's tone was not loud, but the surrounding martial artists were very excited.
In recent years, the champions of the Dragon Ascension Celebration have mostly been familiar faces, which has dampened the enthusiasm of some independent cultivators. However, Lin Feng's unexpected victory has given many people confidence. If the two major chambers of commerce hold the Dragon Ascension Celebration again next year, they will probably rush to participate.
"You bastard!"
Luo Jiang cursed angrily, then gave a look to the martial artist behind him, who immediately understood and quickly left the venue.
"Ahem... Um, do you need any help?"
Shen Subai tugged at Lin Feng's sleeve and whispered, "Although I didn't bring any protectors with me to the Endless Sea this time, my mother's clone seems to have been following me. If needed, I can just ask my mother to wipe them out. It would be more convenient. Although Lin Ye by your side is strong, he is only at the Divine Soul Realm. It would probably be a bit troublesome for him to wipe out the Mujiang Chamber of Commerce."
Since Shen Subai offered to help, Lin Feng naturally had no reason to refuse.
He faced the direction where Luo Jiang was, revealing a meaningful smile.
Of course, Luo Jiang saw that smile as nothing short of a blatant provocation.
"Hmph... Wait until the experts from my Mujiang Chamber of Commerce make their move, then let's see if you'll still be laughing!"
A cold smile crept across Luo Jiang's lips.
Beside him, Fan Xing took a sip of tea and silently lit three incense sticks for Luo Jiang in his heart.
It's pathetic that they didn't even realize they'd messed with the wrong person.
Fan Xing was somewhat relieved that he had befriended Shen Suobai before; otherwise, his fate would probably not have been much better than Luo Jiang's.
