12: The bigger the fist, the more truth!

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a young woman in a fox fur coat walking over with light steps, her pace quick but not at all chaotic.

The young woman looked quite noble, her appearance somewhat similar to Xie Ting, and she was indeed Xie Ting's older sister, Xie Yingying.

This time, it was someone from the Xie Family who, seeing Xie Ting and the others defeated, had gone ahead to call for reinforcements.

"Sister!"

Upon seeing Xie Yingying appear, Xie Ting's eyes immediately reddened, and she cried out, full of grievance.

In the small square, everyone, including Lin Fan, quickly recognized Xie Yingying's identity.

After all, as the top junior of the Xie Family, she still had a considerable reputation in Qingyang Town.

"You are that Lin Fan who has recently emerged from the Lin Family, aren't you? Your previous actions were very inappropriate! Sometimes, recklessness might make your Family pay a price."

Xie Yingying's autumn water-like eyes stared at Lin Fan, her voice tinged with a faint chill.

Lin Fan said indifferently, "You don't need to put on an act, pretending the Xie Family has been wronged. In the end, it's just about whose fist is bigger!"

"Your Xie Family has long disliked my Lin Family and wanted to drive the Lin Family out of Qingyang Town, but unfortunately, you couldn't. This time, Xie Ting provoked first, so she deserved to be beaten by me. It's only because her strength is inferior to others!"

"If you want to settle the score, just make your move. If you can defeat me, then it's my lack of strength, and I can't blame anyone else. All those other pointless words are just a laughingstock!"

The surrounding crowd heard Lin Fan's words and nodded slightly, for what he said was the truth, and also the essence of this world.

Xie Yingying's face turned grim upon hearing Lin Fan's words, and she was speechless for a moment.

"Haha, well said, whoever has the bigger fist is right!" Suddenly, a soft laugh rang out.

Immediately, a figure leaped directly from the second floor, his tall and straight posture causing all the juniors present to feel a sense of pressure.

Seeing the newcomer, Lin Xia and the other Lin Family juniors' expressions changed slightly, and they all gathered behind Lin Fan, looking very solemn.

"Brother Lei Li!"

The Xie Family members, upon seeing the newcomer, were all overjoyed, and Xie Ting even cried out in delight.

Lin Fan naturally knew Lei Li, who was hailed as the top junior in Qingyang Town, and he was also Xie Yingying's fiancé!

However, no one knew that Lin Fan had already replaced Lei Li's position!

"Yingying, let me handle this," Lei Li looked at Xie Yingying gently and said with a smile.

"Mm," Xie Yingying also smiled when she saw Lei Li.

Lei Li took a step forward, walked opposite Lin Fan, and said with a faint smile, "You are Lin Fan, right? I also agree with what you said earlier, but..."

Before Lei Li could finish, Lin Fan interrupted him directly, "Since you agree, then don't say anything irrelevant. Let's fight, don't waste everyone's time!"

"After today, the title of the top junior in Qingyang Town might just change hands!"

Lei Li was already annoyed by Lin Fan's interruption, and hearing Lin Fan's words made his face turn even colder, "Very well, you've successfully angered me!"

"Bang!"

As his voice fell, Lei Li stomped heavily on the ground, his body like a cannonball, instantly arriving in front of Lin Fan and punching towards Lin Fan's chest!

On that fist, a dense glow rapidly surged, and the sharp gust of wind caused Lin Xia and the others' cheeks to turn pale.

However, Lin Fan, as the target of the attack, remained calm, his right palm moving slightly, blocking Lei Li's fist with perfect precision.

"Bang!"

Fist and palm met, and a dull sound echoed in the air.

An invisible wave of Qi spread out in all directions, forcing the onlookers to continuously retreat!

"Thump, thump, thump!"

The next moment, under the disbelieving gazes of the crowd, Lei Li's body uncontrollably retreated six steps before he managed to stabilize himself.

Lin Fan's eyes flickered slightly, thinking of the Hunting Convention, and then he also feigned a retreat of four steps. He wanted to appear slightly stronger than Lei Li, to give Lei Li and the Lei Family something to look forward to.

Lin Fan was worried that if he showed too much strength, the Lei Family might not propose a gamble at the Hunting Convention, and then wouldn't the Lin Family be unable to obtain the Yang Yuan Stone Mine?

For the sake of the Yang Yuan Stone Mine, holding back for now was not a loss!

Even so, this result had already shocked everyone present!

"He actually blocked it!"

"And, he retreated two steps less than Lei Li!"

"Could it be that Lin Fan has really surpassed Lei Li?"

"..."

Thinking of what Lin Fan had said before the fight, the onlookers' gazes towards Lei Li became somewhat subtle.

After their initial shock, the Lin Family juniors were all beaming with joy.

Xie Yingying and Xie Ting's expressions, however, turned very ugly at this moment. They hadn't expected Lin Fan, who had suddenly risen in the Lin Family, to possess such strength!

"You've also broken through to the ninth level of Body Tempering?" Lei Li stared intently at Lin Fan, his face ashen.

Lin Fan smiled slightly, "What do you think?"

Lei Li said in a deep voice, "Even among those at the ninth level of Body Tempering, there are differences in strength! Just now, I didn't use my full power!"

As his voice fell, Lei Li's palms suddenly curved into a peculiar arc, his fingers flickering like a venomous snake wagging its head!

This was a second-grade Martial Art of the Lei Family, a soft yet vicious palm technique called Spirit Serpent Palm!

"Hehe, it's really lively here..."

Just as the Yuan Qi within Lei Li's body circulated and he was about to attack again, a discordant laugh suddenly sounded from behind the crowd.

Then, about ten figures parted the crowd and walked directly into the arena.

They were all dressed in identical clothes, with a large saber embroidered on the chest of their garments, swaying like a fierce wind.

Just by their attire, everyone recognized the identity of the newcomers: Disciples of the Mad Blade Martial Hall.

The leader was Wu Yun, the strongest junior in the Mad Blade Martial Hall!

Wu Yun first glanced at Lei Li, then smiled and gave Lin Fan a thumbs up, saying with a smile:

"You are Lin Fan, the top-ranked individual in the Lin Family's Family competition? Your strength is indeed not weak; you actually pushed back that guy Lei Li. Very impressive!"

"Wu Yun, this is between him and me, mind your own business!" Lei Li looked at the smirking Wu Yun, his face as dark as water.

Wu Yun naturally couldn't listen to Lei Li.

Lei Li secretly thought that with Wu Yun and the Mad Blade Martial Hall bolstering their presence, even if the Lei and Xie Families joined forces, they would have difficulty gaining an advantage.

But if they retreated now, wouldn't it mean they were afraid of the Lin Family and the Mad Blade Martial Hall?

"Alright, you little ones, you've made enough noise. It's time to go home, don't disturb people's business."

At this moment, a slightly helpless voice suddenly came from the pavilion upstairs.

It was the manager of the trading fair who had intervened.

Lei Li immediately took the hint, dispersed the Yuan Qi fluctuations in his palm, and said coldly, "You're lucky today. When the Hunting Convention comes, let's see who can protect you then!"

After uttering his harsh words, Lei Li led Xie Yingying and the others away, preparing to go into seclusion to Breakthrough to the Earthly Yuan Realm, and then at the Hunting Convention, teach the Lin Family and the Mad Blade Martial Hall a harsh lesson!

After the Lei and Xie Families left, Wu Yun chatted with Lin Xia and Lin Fan for a few moments, then prepared to leave with the Mad Blade Martial Hall members.

"Brother Wu, please wait," Lin Fan suddenly called out to Wu Yun.

Wu Yun's footsteps paused slightly, and he asked curiously, "Brother Lin Fan, is there anything I can help with?"
