24: Shooting oneself in the foot, entering the top 100
“Ah!”
A cry of pain suddenly came, and the contestants looked sideways, only to see a Disciple whose arm was bitten off by a Wind Chasing Dogs, and a large amount of blood spurted from the wound.
In pain, he ignored his broken arm and immediately jumped up, escaping the beast-fighting arena.
Lin Yuan saw at a glance that this person had a Luck mentality, thinking he could avoid the Yao Beast's attack, but he miscalculated.
Seeing this, many exhausted contestants gave up struggling and jumped away.
In a short while, thousands of people were gone, and only a few hundred Disciples remained in the arena.
The most dazzling among them was undoubtedly the purple-clad woman standing in the center of the field.
She held a long whip, her eyes full of arrogance and disdain.
Once a Wind Chasing Dogs approached, she would repel it with a single whip.
At first, the Yao Beasts would swarm and attack this arrogant human together, but they were easily dealt with by a few whips from her.
Although the Wind Chasing Dogs were violent, they were not fools. Seeing this human woman so powerful, they were also afraid and avoided her.
This led to a circle of vacuum around Liu Yuyan.
No contestant or Yao Beast dared to enter, because those who entered were repelled.
The rules stated that one could not attack fellow Disciples, but she was an exception.
Even if she violated the rules, the referee dared not say anything.
Besides her, there was also a golden-clad man standing in a corner of the field, his position never moving, yet no Yao Beast dared to attack him.
This person was Cao Jun, who relied on the strength of his Physique to repel many dogs, causing the Wind Chasing Dogs to feel fear and not dare to approach.
On the other side, in the corner of the beast-fighting arena, Huang Fen was dodging the Yao Beast's pursuit when he suddenly noticed a figure ahead.
“Lin Yuan? This kid can actually last so long?”
After recognizing the other party's identity, he immediately found it incredible.
With his Opening Meridian Realm Fourth Layer cultivation and Movement Martial Skill, he barely managed to last until now. This kid had just entered the Opening Meridian Realm, so how could he be so relaxed?
“Damn kid, watch me spice things up for you!”
Huang Fen muttered fiercely in his heart, rushed to Lin Yuan's side, and said urgently, “Junior Brother, there are too many of these beasts. Please help Senior Brother block a few.”
Lin Yuan was originally watching the show, but was suddenly caught in the crossfire, naturally feeling displeased.
If it weren't for the rules prohibiting fighting, the other party would have already been beaten down by him.
At this moment, the Wind Chasing Dogs noticed the young man beside Huang Fen, and one by one, they opened their bloody mouths, their eyes revealing fierce light.
Most of the people in the arena were in a sorry state, but this human was neatly dressed and calm.
This was undoubtedly provoking them!
“Roar!”
Several roars sounded, and the Yao Beasts swiftly pounced towards Lin Yuan.
“Truly troublesome… sigh, I'd better make a move.”
With a helpless sigh, Lin Yuan decided.
He could actually still run, but he had been targeted, and running would be exhausting. It was better to directly intimidate the other party so he could have some peace.
“Bang bang bang!”
Three Tongbei Fist moves were thrown, instantly sending the approaching Yao Beasts flying.
Seeing this, the Disciples fleeing around were greatly alarmed!
The first round of the Grand Competition was almost over, and there was still a hidden master?
To repel several Wind Chasing Dogs so easily, the other party's cultivation must be at least at the Peak of the Opening Meridian Realm!
On the high platform, the Elders were talking when they suddenly noticed the situation here, and they were all shocked.
“Whose Disciple is that? To have such strength?”
“Looking at the fist technique he's using, could it be Tongbei Fist?”
“Isn't Tongbei Fist the lowest-level Martial Skill? It can actually send several Wind Chasing Dogs flying? How many strikes did he make?”
As they exclaimed, Song Mian frowned.
He had never noticed the other party before.
And if he remembered correctly, Lin Yuan should only be a Body Tempering Fifth Layer Cultivator, right?
How did he enter the Opening Meridian Realm in just half a month?
Did he obtain some Opportunity?
Recalling what happened on the mountainside that night, his eyes shot out brilliant light!
Right!
It must be because of the shooting star that night!
Lin Yuan must have obtained an Opportunity from that time, which allowed him to quickly enter the Opening Meridian Realm and gain the strength to repel the Wind Chasing Dogs.
This Opportunity was even more powerful than he had imagined.
Song Mian had originally guessed that the other party had obtained a treasure, and now he could finally confirm it.
“Nephew, oh nephew, don't blame Junior Martial Uncle for being heartless, but you obtained something you shouldn't have, and I can only reluctantly make a move.”
Song Mian's expression darkened as he silently thought.
In the arena, seeing Lin Yuan repel the Wind Chasing Dogs with a few punches, Huang Fen was already stunned.
What's going on?
He can actually defeat the Wind Chasing Dogs?
Then why didn't he make a move all this time?
Amidst his astonishment, only the sound of barking was heard, and the original Wind Chasing Dogs came rushing like mad dogs.
They were angry!
They thought Lin Yuan was a pushover, but he was so strong, causing them to be hit for nothing.
Such a humiliating incident filled them with rage, and they placed all the blame on Huang Fen.
If it weren't for him attracting them to attack Lin Yuan, they wouldn't have been hit.
This despicable human! He must be bitten to death!
Under the frantic pursuit of several Yao Beasts, Huang Fen had a sleeve bitten off before he barely escaped.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan's mouth curved into a mocking smile.
This guy wanted to harm him, but in the end, he shot himself in the foot and got himself eliminated.
With Huang Fen's departure, only over a hundred people remained in the beast-fighting arena, while there were still tens of thousands of Wind Chasing Dogs.
The sharp decrease in numbers meant that each person had to deal with more Yao Beasts.
Except for tough opponents like Liu Yuyan and Cao Jun, whom no Wind Chasing Dogs dared to approach, the rest of the Disciples were more or less affected.
Lin Yuan was also entangled by many Wind Chasing Dogs, but after he repelled a group, the Yao Beasts all cowered and dared not bother him again.
Soon, dozens more contestants left, and the number finally dropped to one hundred.
“I announce that the first round of the Grand Competition is over!”
On the high platform, after confirming the remaining number of people, Geng Xiu stood up and shouted.
Upon hearing this, the Disciples in the arena breathed a sigh of relief and jumped up, leaving the beast-fighting arena.
The one hundred successfully promoted Disciples stood outside the arena, waiting for the next round of the Grand Competition.
Gu Shuqin and Miao Yizi had been watching the battle outside. Now, seeing Lin Yuan come out, they immediately went up to him.
“Senior Brother, you actually made it into the top hundred, that's too strong!”
Miao Yizi excitedly rushed to the man's side, hugged his arm, her eyes full of stars.
“Lin Yuan, congratulations on entering the top hundred.”
Gu Shuqin stepped forward to congratulate him, her demeanor calm but her tone barely concealing her excitement.
Because Lin Yuan's cultivation was not high, she originally didn't have much expectation, but she didn't expect him to give her a surprise.
