222: Chapter 222 Hunting Competition, Yun'an City

Over a month later.

Lin Family Manor, master bedroom.

The lights had just been extinguished, and the air still held a lingering, intimate atmosphere.

Wen Yan leaned in Lin Yun's arms, her face flushed with post-intimacy satisfaction.

Lin Yun gently stroked her lower abdomen, feeling joyful in his heart.

She was pregnant.

It was several times faster than the first pregnancy.

For this past month, he had been Cultivating during the day and working hard at night.

Neither was neglected.

Besides creating life, he had also learned two new Combat Techniques.

Both were mystic grade mid-tier.

They were the "Phantom Shadow Evasion" and the "Traceless Breath-Concealing Art".

His purpose in learning these two Combat Techniques was very clear:

First, for the upcoming Hunting Competition.

Second, to better conceal his Aura.

He was now a Ninth-Grade Void Core, but he deliberately suppressed his Aura to the level of a Sixth-Grade False Core.

After all, a Ninth-Grade Void Core was too rare and too flashy.

It could easily invite unnecessary trouble.

Keeping a low profile was the only way to advance steadily.

His previous Movement Technique, the "Ten Thousand Shadows Void-Escape Step", was good at flexible dodging and short-range sneak attacks.

While fast, it had obvious deficiencies in straight-line escape and long-distance sprinting.

The "Phantom Shadow Evasion" perfectly made up for this shortcoming.

When executed, his figure was as swift as a phantom shadow.

The speed of straight-line escape was several times faster than the "Ten Thousand Shadows Void-Escape Step".

Whether chasing or escaping, it was excellent.

As for the "Traceless Breath-Concealing Art", it was the "Divine Artifact" of the Hunting Competition.

It could perfectly conceal his own Aura.

Not only could it prevent people from perceiving his cultivation, but even Yao Beasts could not perceive his existence.

It allowed him to sneak close to Yao Beasts to launch surprise attacks, or silently withdraw when encountering powerful Yao Beasts, greatly increasing his safety.

With over two hundred years of insights into Martial Arts Cultivation, a powerful Soul, and precise control in the Micro-Perception Realm, he had cultivated both Combat Techniques to the Perfection Realm in just over a month.

...

Time passed in a flash, and the decennial Hunting Competition of Minglu Planet arrived as scheduled.

Tianshui Martial Arts University was bustling with noise and excitement.

All teachers and students gathered here, their eyes burning as they watched the team about to depart.

Shen Qingqiu wore a capable outfit, her posture upright, and her expression serious.

As the team leader for this competition, she shouldered the heavy responsibility of leading the students to fight for first place in the competition.

Principal Yang Qi followed closely behind, a look of anticipation on his face.

Tianshui Prefecture had always been ranked in the middle to lower tier among the eight prefectures. This time, whether they could pull off an upset depended entirely on Lin Yun.

In the team, one hundred students from the Genius Ranking stood in neat rows.

Each one was spirited and high-spirited.

Lin Yun stood at the very front of the team.

His entire Aura was masked by the "Traceless Breath-Concealing Art".

He looked like an ordinary Sixth-Grade False Core Martial Artist, completely unable to show the terrifying foundation of a Ninth-Grade Void Core.

"Set off!"

At Shen Qingqiu's command, one hundred students boarded the anti-gravity vehicle in an orderly fashion.

As the engine started, the anti-gravity vehicle slowly rose into the sky, flying towards Yunan Prefecture.

The cheers of the teachers and students echoed behind them for a long time.

Inside the anti-gravity vehicle, the space was spacious.

The students gathered in threes and fives, discussing the upcoming Hunting Competition.

Jun Moxiao approached Lin Yun, his face showing a bit of admiration, his tone sincere:

"Brother Lin, although I am much older than you, I truly admire you, so I will call you brother!"

"This competition depends entirely on you. Our Tianshui Prefecture has never won first place in the Hunting Competition. This time, we are all counting on you to lead us to a counterattack!"

Lin Yun nodded with a smile, his tone relaxed:

"Don't worry. Since I'm here, I won't let everyone down. I will strive to take first place and win some glory for our Tianshui Prefecture."

The students nearby heard this and echoed him one after another, their faces filled with anticipation.

In previous Hunting Competitions, they had always played the role of tag-alongs.

But this time, with Lin Yun there, hope ignited in their hearts.

Perhaps, they could really create a miracle and take first place.

While chatting, everyone also talked about the situation of the eight prefectures of Minglu Planet.

The eight prefectures of Minglu Planet had a total population of over 15 billion.

Tianshui Prefecture had a population of 1.3 billion, ranking fifth or sixth among the eight prefectures.

And the ranking of the Hunting Competition mostly followed the population ranking.

They hovered in the fifth or sixth position all year round.

Only occasionally would a top Genius appear, allowing them to barely squeeze into the top three.

But this time, it was different.

Tianshui Prefecture had Lin Yun.

A Heaven-Defying existence who had soared from Second-Stage Perfection to Sixth-Grade Void Core in a year and a half.

With him there, Tianshui Prefecture had the capital to challenge for first place.

The anti-gravity vehicle sped along, passing over the skies of Qingchuan Prefecture and Fengling County.

The scenery along the way flew backward rapidly.

After several hours of flight, they finally arrived at the host location of this Hunting Competition: Yunan Prefecture, Yunan City.

Yunan Prefecture bordered the Monster Continent.

It was the most populous and powerful prefecture among the eight.

It held the first place in the Hunting Competition all year round.

The Yunan Martial Arts University within the prefecture was full of Geniuses and had formidable strength.

It had always been a strong opponent for other prefectures.

The anti-gravity vehicle landed slowly, and everyone got off in an orderly manner.

Led by Shen Qingqiu and Principal Yang Qi, they headed to the pre-booked hotel.

Shen Qingqiu gave a few simple instructions, emphasizing the competition rules and safety precautions, then let everyone move freely, rest well, and recharge their energy to prepare for the competition that would officially begin tomorrow.

And as early as when the school's anti-gravity vehicle took off, Su Yingxue, Wen Yan, and the other ten wives had already followed in their own flying vehicles.

As soon as free time began, Lin Yun immediately contacted Su Yingxue and the others to meet downstairs at the hotel.

Before long, the ten wives gathered downstairs.

Each was dressed in colorful, gorgeous clothes, with stunning looks, causing passersby to look over frequently.

Immediately after, Lin Yun contacted the Zhao Muyi sisters and invited them to stroll around Yunan City together.

The Zhao Muyi sisters arrived quickly.

Their looks were identical, but their temperaments were completely different.

One was dignified, the other lively.

After joining the team, it made the group even more eye-catching.

Lin Yun led his ten wives, plus the Zhao Muyi sisters.

A total of twelve stunning beauties walked on the streets of Yunan City.

Wherever they went, they were the focus.

Passersby stopped to watch, their eyes full of amazement and envy, and the sound of discussion was endless.

Lin Yun was long accustomed to this.

He calmly led everyone to stroll slowly along the streets of Yunan City, tasting local snacks and enjoying the scenery along the way.

As the most prosperous city among the eight prefectures, Yunan City had wide streets, lined with shops, and was bustling with noise and excitement.

Everywhere was full of liveliness and prosperity.

The women were dazzled.

Every now and then, they stopped to pick out small items they liked, and laughter continued.

After visiting the most famous prosperous streets and scenic spots in Yunan City, someone suggested going to see Guanyao Island.

Guanyao Island was a peninsula near Yunan City, less than a hundred meters from the Monster Continent.

It was the place tourists liked to visit the most.

It was said that standing on the island, one could see the Monster Continent opposite.
