63: Defeat Xiao Wei, the woman framed

As soon as the words fell, a young man in plain clothes flew over and landed lightly on the arena.

"Who is this person? He looks so unfamiliar. Do we have such a person in Great River City?"

"I haven't seen him before. He might be from another city."

"He's quite handsome, but I wonder how strong he is."

"He must have some strength, otherwise how would he dare to challenge on the arena?"

Everyone was discussing, curious about the identity and combat power of this uninvited guest.

The referee turned to look at the opponent, frowning: "What's your name? What's your cultivation Realm?"

"Lin Yuan, Opening Meridian Realm sixth layer."

"Opening Meridian Realm sixth layer? Hahahahaha!"

Xiao Wei suddenly burst into laughter, with a look of ridicule: "Kid, don't you know I'm a Cultivator of the Condensing Core Realm? How dare a mere Opening Meridian Realm child come on stage? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Lin Yuan said calmly: "Is there anyone who stipulates that the Opening Meridian Realm cannot go on stage?"

"There's no rule, but for you to challenge with such a cultivation Realm is not only asking for humiliation, but also an insult to me!"

Lin Yuan's face remained unchanged at Xiao Wei's words, and he directly turned his head and said: "City Lord, can the fight begin?"

The referee reminded: "His cultivation Realm is a major Realm higher than yours. You are very likely to be injured in this battle. Are you sure you still want to challenge?"

"Confirmed."

"Alright, then take care of yourself."

With that, he jumped off the arena, leaving the space to the two of them.

Xiao Wei stared directly at the opponent, with a sinister expression: "Kid who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, even the City Lord reminded you, yet you still dare to challenge. Then I will break your bones and make you pay for your ignorance!"

"So much nonsense."

Lin Yuan snorted disdainfully, unleashed Eight Extremes Pulse, and his figure flashed like light, arriving in front of his opponent.

So fast!

Xiao Wei's heart tightened, and he quickly channeled his Qi and punched, striking at the opponent.

"Bang!"

Lin Yuan also punched, colliding with him.

He stood rooted to the spot, his body as stable as Mount Tai, while Xiao Wei retreated several steps, his palms numb, his face full of shock.

He was repelled!

He was actually repelled!

The opponent was just an ant at the sixth layer of the Opening Meridian Realm, how was this possible?

Amidst his shock, Lin Yuan flashed over again and launched an attack.

Xiao Wei didn't have time to think, raising his hand to resist with all his strength.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sounds of fists and feet colliding kept ringing out on the arena. Lin Yuan's offensive was swift and fierce, completely suppressing his opponent.

This scene stunned everyone.

"Am I seeing things? The Opening Meridian Realm forcing the Condensing Core Realm into a disadvantage? And Xiao Wei seems to have no power to retaliate, only barely able to protect himself."

"Who exactly is he? How can he fight across a major Realm?"

"Could he be the heir of some prominent Family?"

Exclamations rang out continuously, and Lin Yuan's origin had become mysterious in their eyes.

On the high platform, the man in yellow robes stood up the moment he saw Lin Yuan.

"This child actually came to participate in the selection? Is he a Cultivator from a nearby city?"

While puzzled, he also saw the scene of the opponent gaining the upper hand, and his heart was even more astonished.

"To be able to achieve such a level, this child must at least possess a Physique of the Saint Body level. Such an extraordinary Prodigy must have a great background. I wonder what his background is?"

The man pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered the spatial fluctuations from before, and a startling guess immediately formed in his mind.

"He couldn't be that Fellow Daoist's Disciple, could he?"

At this moment, he heard his subordinate speak: "City Lord, what's wrong? Do you know that young man who just went on stage?"

The man came back to his senses and shook his head slightly: "I don't know him, but he looks a bit like a Junior of an old friend of mine, so I couldn't help but get up and take a closer look."

"So that's it. But even if you don't know him, this young man's strength is quite formidable. If we can recruit him to Great River City, we'll have a greater chance of winning this Hundred-City League."

"Hmm, let's keep watching for now. This little fellow might bring us an even bigger surprise."

As the two conversed, the competition on the arena was in full swing.

"Bang!"

Xiao Wei unleashed a Martial Skill, forcing his opponent back, and said coldly: "Kid, to be able to push me to this extent, you indeed have some strength. Perhaps in time, I might not be your opponent, but for now, you'd better obediently get down."

As he spoke, his body emitted a green light, and the surrounding Origin Qi also became restless.

"This is the manifestation of the Azure Luo Treasure Body! It seems Xiao Wei intends to use his full strength!"

"I wonder how that young man will respond?"

"With the ability he has shown, he must have a way to deal with it."

Everyone spoke up, anticipating Lin Yuan's performance.

As expected, no sooner had Xiao Wei finished speaking than Lin Yuan's aura began to surge, reaching the Peak of the Opening Meridian Realm in an instant!

"No need for 'in time,' you're not my opponent now."

With that, Lin Yuan condensed Origin Qi in his palm and threw a punch forward!

"Tongbei Fist!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Four meridian sounds rang out, and a majestic Fist Intent broke through the wind and firmly locked onto the opponent.

Xiao Wei gritted his teeth and replied: "What if you raise your cultivation? You'll still lose under my Azure Luo Treasure Body!"

He formed a seal with both hands and unleashed a green light wave, meeting the palm intent!

"Azure Radiance Seal!"

"Bang!"

The two collided, and the palm intent crushed the light wave like dry leaves, then struck directly onto the opponent's body.

"Pfft!"

Xiao Wei flew into the air and heavily crashed to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

He lost!

He actually lost!

This battle with such a disparity in strength actually ended this way, it was truly unexpected!

"Wei'er!"

A woman in a ruqun dress rapidly swept onto the arena, embracing Xiao Wei's body, her face full of concern: "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine... just minor injuries."

Xiao Wei said so, but his pale cheeks betrayed him.

"Your Qi is so weak, how can you say you're fine?"

The woman spoke with heartache, then stood up and angrily pointed at the young man: "How can an Opening Meridian Realm strength possibly defeat a Condensing Core Realm? You must have cheated!"

The referee returned to the arena, about to announce the result, but was affected by the woman's sudden words and was momentarily unsure how to rule.

If it were other Families, it would be fine, but the Xiao Family was one of the few Qi Gathering Realm forces in Great River City, and even he dared not offend them rashly.

Lin Yuan calmly raised his lips, about to retort, when the figure of the man in yellow robes suddenly appeared around them.

"Madam Xiao, the League selection battle is watched by the entire city, with so many people watching, he wouldn't have much chance even if he wanted to cheat."

The man stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze indifferently watching the other party.

"Greetings, City Lord."

Seeing the newcomer, everyone bowed in salute.

The woman also bowed, then replied: "Some methods cannot be discerned by the naked eye. Perhaps he held a Medicinal Pill in his mouth before the match and swallowed it at a critical moment to boost his cultivation and combat power."
